elmat,

You might want to check your reading comprehension. <g>

Re: The US wants to align itself with the UK.

Did you read the article I posted? I did, and I came to exactly the opposite conclusion that you've arrived at.

How, exactly, does Bush demanding that U.S. multinational corporations repatriate jobs from UK align us with British?
And don't argue that the jobs will be filled by Brits in the future, because the jobs are simply going to disappear from the British business scene.

Looks like part of the US Steel Tariff will be on the table for the Bush / Blair meeting.

CNBC had an extensive discussion of security and its' impact - that is very worrisome...

I don't think this run up over $400 will go sky high...but it should be a nice run.

It seems some of this noise about tariffs is designed to push the US dolalr down vs. the Euro, part of the Administartion's "screw old Europe" plan. Will also result in a marginal gain in US jobs before the election.
