It is bizarre that we who espouse America first (USA) are labeled protectionist. As if that is a bad thing to be. what really blows my mind is W talking about importing Ethanol. It's like he is some kind of spoiled rich guy (John Vietnam Kerry comes to mind) that simply has to import everything. I wonder how many acres of US corn AF1 flew over on the way to Brazil?

talking about importing Ethanol

We have been importing ethanol longer the G.W. Bush has been president.

Corn does not become ethanol without a processing plant. Current plants are running at maximum capacity and many new ones are being built. This still does not reach the demand for ethanol with the current government mandates.

I hope we can import the ethanol, as long as there absolutely HAS to be an ethanol scam imposed on America. Our home-grown corn should be used for feeding people.
