Who'll stop the rain

Start a new folder -- label it "who'll stop the rain?"

There certainly is a strong need for the United States to become a fair player in the global economy. But the new Democratic Congress is far more likely to help achieve that goal -- as well as the goal of its own re-election -- if it calls on the administration to not escalate WTO talks that are likely to lead to worsening income distribution at home and economic and social instability abroad.
Is this trying to say the prag bosses running the donkery congress will stop the rain? Enter a Wall Street trans-nat old oaken horse through the gates of Democrat Troy, in the form of an "intervention" by "the Democrat-aligned Center for American Progress":
In a recent CAP publication... a Clinton administration official who had previously advised the Mexican government on NAFTA has tried to make "The Case for Reviving the Doha Trade Round" of the WTO....
Mein Gott, Doha! Doha! Please! Only fools and cabbage leaves any longer mention Doha. I like this for understatement:
... the group seems out of step with the majority of the Democrats' base and progressive thinking worldwide on the WTO with a 2005 report even calling WTO escalation "critical to our future prosperity and security."
The wolves are everywhere -- everywhere bleating with the flock, out there among the sheep and lambkins. But you can tell 'em if you try. Check out the the curls of their fleece coats -- the wolves' are too long and thick and cheesy to be natural.

Note also that comments with three or more links may be held for "moderation" -- a strange term to apply to the ghost in this blog's machine. Seems to be a hard-coded limitation of the blog software, unfortunately.
