For crying out loud.

National Debt: currently approaching 10 trillion (as of the recent projections)

Which puts us 10% in hock to Chairman Mao. Not 2% So what is your interest in Chinese communist factories?...

Though we do seem to agree about Governor Palin.

Free Trade and Socialism are antithetical concepts.

Socialism is about controlling the means of production: inserting the Government between buyer and seller.

Free Trade is about removing the Government from between buyer and seller.

Why should someone who wants to buy something be forced to buy it from one of your approved manufacturers?

Case in point: Obama wants everyone to buy their cars from unionised domestic producers like GM. If (using some section of Cap and Trade) he put a massive tarriff on foreign exports so that only crappy GM cars were affordable, would you clap and cheer?
