Honorable end to steel protectionism?

The Bush administration's foray into steel protectionism has proven costly. The decision by the administration to exempt an additional 178 products from its steel safeguard represents the latest effort to remove itself from the quagmire. But in the coming weeks, the administration may have the political cover it wants to revoke the safeguard entirely and achieve "peace with honor."

Bush's imposition of steel tarrifs was a total disaster,
as was his administration's treatment of airport security,
and his support of Arafat. There are, however, signs
that things may eventually improve on all these fronts.
Maybe they'll get things right eventually. (Or maybe I'm too
optimistic.)
