I responded to your post on the steel tariffs.

I didn't post anything about the steel tariff. Did you read the post before you responded to it? The main points of the article cited concerned tariffs on Pakistani textile products, with additional discussion of agricultural goods produced in developing countries, particularly sugar, and of tariff policy in general. Steel got one short paragraph.

I doubt the numbers of the protectionism you alleged

I didn't allege the number. George Will did, citing the Economist as his source. I commented that if the number is accurate, it has ramifications far beyond those Will discussed.

I don't now much about the subject.

It's a subject of far greater importance to our future than anything Clinton ever did. Worth a bit of study, perhaps.

I don't think I misled anybody. I meant exactly what I said. When you start discussing the political objectives of an expected military intervention and get answers like "Government knows what's best", and you start discussing critical trade issues and get one line responses, you wonder if you're talking in the right place, especially when people around you are going on for a dozen posts or so talking about anything as irrelevant as Bill Clinton.
