I have an interesting conundrum for you:

Reagan (mostly a free-trader) imposes tariffs on foreign motorcycles. He's a hero.
Bush (mostly a free-trader) imposes tariffs on foreign steel. He's a goat.

Note, too, how -- to a man; without exception; every last one of 'em -- the anti-free trade "conservatives" hereabouts all seem remarkably comfortable and conversant with the exact same talking points and half-truths so abundant and on ready display here.

"Conservatives" who slam Bush and Reagan... while proudly championing the positions of Michael Moore and Nancy Pelosi.

Uh. Huh.
