What's Good For The Goose May Not Be Good For The Gander

The next time some Bush blower tells you how good the economy is because we added a bunch of minimum wage jobs and CEOs are now richer than ever, consider this:

From CNN: Since Bush took office in 2001, the country has seen one in five manufacturing jobs disappear, a total of 2.96 million lost jobs. The U.S. trade deficit is expected to climb to a fifth consecutive record when final 2006 figures are totaled next month.

Free trade comes with a very large price tag.

And no, I have no idea what a gander is.
