Obama puts tariffs on tires from China

Has anyone informed dear leader that the phrase isn't "those who don't learn from history ought to repeat it?"

This is not the way to go. We need to boost exports. This won't do that. It's good theatrical demagoguery. Unfortunately, that's what this administration seems to be about.

Carbon taxes will probably be our generations answer to Smoot Hawley.

Sorry, no Chinese made tires on my truck. I don't care if they say Goodyear, Fiorestone, etc., Chinese quality control leaves much to be desired.

China will now respond

Obama being a puppet of the unions strikes again. It wasn't enough to give them GM and Chrysler, he has to damage the economy some more by bending to their protectionism.

What a waste this guy is.

Another great call by the economic wizard. Piss off the people you are depending on to finance your multi-trillion dollar spending sprees.
