In that post, I noted that I was surprised that Obama would be talking such nonsense when he is advised by very respected free-market economists like Austan Goolsbee. There's no way he's been suggesting this kind of nonsense as policy to the campaign.
Well, look who Canadian television is naming as the Obama campaign source who told the Canadians to ignore all the heated anti-NAFTA talk as "campaign rhetoric."
BTW, note to Obama and Clinton: It doesn't make you look like you are going to "repair America's image" when you start blathering on about how you are going to hold our two largest trading partners at gunpoint until they do what America wants.

"I don't think it's appropriate to go to Ohio and tell people one thing while your aide is calling the Canadian ambassador and telling him something else," McCain said, referring to Obama. "I certainly don't think that's straight talk."
John McCain 08!!!
It's all talk, and very little of it is straight.
Holding our trading partners at gunpoint is what America has always been about.
Then again, I'm a commie, and a Krokus fan.
