34. It IS getting tiresome
I linked you to a source that showed the agreements are not being violated. I also produced a link that showed that Canada has gone much farther in protecting its own industries in the actual agreements than we have, which for some reason doesn't trouble your quixotic notion of "fairness".

I have demonstrated to you that government officials and companies are deliberately distorting what is in trade agreements in order to create the perception that a Buy America/n clause in the stimulus violates them. Which is, quite frankly, appalling but for whatever reason not a big deal to you, despite with your handwringing over "implications". And finally, you dismiss and belittle the concerns of people who want the clause to remain in the stimulus, claiming "it doesn't fix anything", while at the same time giving full weight to the arguments of the people (proven to be liars) who want to strip it.
