After a World Trade Organisation ruling in its favour, the European Union is set to retaliate against America’s illegal steel tariffs. The transatlantic dispute over export subsidies is also coming to a head.
Nor are the tariffs painless for America. Even the United States International Trade Commission, which recommended the tariffs, reckoned they would cost American firms and workers $680m. Higher prices benefit steel producers, but they hurt steel users, many of them manufacturing companies also struggling against foreign competition. Some, such as Caterpillar, were allowed to bypass the tariffs in buying their steel inputs. Others were not so lucky. Mr Hufbauer estimates that steel-using industries might have lost 26,000 to 43,000 jobs to the tariffs in their first year alone.

The administration also rejected new standards designed to protect Americans from harmful levels of arsenic in drinking water.

21 Program on International Policy Attitudes shows that vast majorities of Bush supporters believe Iraq had weapons of mass destruction and gave Al Qaeda “substantial support” or was directly involved in September 11. Bush backers also think the majority of the world supported the U.S. invasion.

The President wrongly claimed he cut the growth of discretionary spending. Reality: the growth rate multiplied.

I mean for ALL he has done and is DOING to this nation, others have been impeached/shot for LESS.
Its that he NEVER has looked up anything that has been reccomeneded to him, to understand what they are talking about and found the Pro's and Con's of the Idea/problem(s)..
Even suggesting nuclear installations for power, when all the plants have NEVER been upgraded sence there installation in the 50's, 60's and 70's.
There are other scources of power that have NEver been tapped.
Methane from the Dairy cattle as one..
In this county alone we have over 20,000,000+ tons of Manure per year. Thats enough to power southern Idaho for the year.
They finally installed wind turbines in 1 part of idaho.
