Starting To Pay Price For Our Protectionism IBD

* As Obama makes political hay off protectionism and promises a new Smoot-Hawley era, it’s no surprise our trading partners are beginning to look to other markets such as Europe. It’s a warning. *** Our No. 1 trading partner, Canada, isn’t stupid. When Obama threatened last February to rewrite the North American Free Trade Agreement on his own terms, our northern ally started looking abroad to other markets. *** They found a big one in Europe, which seems to have few hang-ups about increasing exports and signing free-trade treaties. Last Friday, Canada and the European Union held the first talks toward an eventual free trade agreement between the two. *** Colombia is also preparing to sign a free-trade deal with Europe, as its own free-trade accord with the U.S. languishes after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi blocked it in Congress last April. *** U.S. allies are wise to seek other partners no matter what the U.S. climate the U.S. downturn no doubt plays a role too. But it started with noises out of the U.S. about pulling up the drawbridge. *

This isn’t just a “do nothing” Congress…it’s a do great damage party. Higher taxes, no trade, socialized medicine and “spreading the wealth around”…what more might they do to drive stakes into the hearts of American enterprisers and employees? Do we really want to find out?

BIG GOVERNMENT…where, do they think the money will come from after they shut it all down?

III. European and Certain U.S. Leaders Have Characterized the Current Financial ‘Crisis’ as One of Capitalism’, and Are Using it as a Pretense to Reform Global Financial Markets as Part of an Overall Effort to Create a NEW Global Governance Regime Intended to ‘Save’ Anglo-American Market-based Capitalism From Itself’

Check out this inflatable boat! It has 2000 horsepower. The boat was used by some big time drug smugglers to cross the English Channel so fast it was like a blur on the radar screen. The British had nothing on the water that could catch it, so they enlisted the help of a high speed helicopter. Now the boat belongs to the government. Wonder if it will go up for auction anytime soon?

VP candidate Joe Biden was at a fund raiser in Seattle Sunday and said the most incredibly bizarre things. My curiosity is particularly piqued because he, Obama, McCain and Palin recently met with President Bush for a briefing on International issues…makes me wonder, what does Joe know and why is he back-peddling a bit on the Obama is the One message?

McCain to Hit Obama on Biden’s Prediction Obama Will be Tested by International Crisis, by Jake Tapper

* “Mark my words,” the Democratic vice presidential nominee said at a Seattle fundraiser Sunday, “it will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy. The world is looking. We’re about to elect a brilliant 47-year-old senator president of the United States of America. Remember I said it standing here if you don’t remember anything else I said. Watch, we’re gonna have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy.” *
