But Harper also noted that assertions made in the heat of political campaigns should be taken with a grain of salt. During the federal election in 1993, former prime minister Jean Chretien threatened to back out of NAFTA's precursor -- the Free Trade Agreement, which was signed by the Tories in the 1980s.

Way to take a poke at Chretien, you could write a book on what Chretien said "he'd do" but didn't.

Obama is as left wing as they come, he also has himself a cult following going, which makes him doubly dangerous. Here is one of his quotes - watch out for this guy..

"... And now, in the most amazing trick of all, a silver-tongued freshman senator has found a way to sell hope. To get it, you need only give him your vote. Barack Obama is getting millions ... the Obama campaign has the feel of a religious revival with, as writer James Wolcott observed, a 'salvational fervor' and 'idealistic zeal divorced from any particular policy or cause and chariot-driven by pure euphoria'.�

"... We are the hope of the future,� sayeth Obama. We can �remake this world as it should be.� Believe in me and I shall redeem not just you but your country � nay, we can become �a hymn that will heal this nation, repair this world, and make this time different than all the rest.�

"ABC�s Jake Tapper notes the 'Helter-Skelter cultish qualities' of 'Obama worshipers', what Joel Stein of the Los Angeles Times calls 'the Cult of Obama'. Obama�s Super Tuesday victory speech was a classic of the genre."

No kidding Bill, hopefully this kills off some of Obama's steam...unlikely though since all across universities I see "fair trade" bullshit in the cafeterias.

I wonder how many jobs the US "lost" to Canada and Mexico versus China, India and Korea?
