Steel consumers happy with reduced prices.

Yep, it's a net gain for Bush. Especially if you factor in the fact that the steel workers wouldn't vote for W anyway.

Did you hear what Wesley Clarke said about this? He said that "the lifting of steel tariffs is proof that W takes cues from donors in industry." Oops...the steel industry oppose's Bush on this. I swear Clarke is a complete moron.

It was pandering to begin with. It was below what I thought of Bush, now I know he is just another politician. Better than the other probable alternative, but you need to be aware of his limits. Same story on 2nd Amendment rights - he is consistent - consistently out of line with the Constitution. And the driver is politics, just like tariffs.

"the lifting of steel tariffs is proof that W takes cues from donors in industry."

Clark talks like a Senator already. He'll say any darned thing just to keep peoples' heads nodding in agreement.
