Encouraging Words From Obama

I was encouraged to read that Obama wants to remove protectionist measures from the proposed spending bills:

President Barack Obama risked a backlash within his own party by criticizing "Buy American" provisions in the huge stimulus bill that would ensure that most of the big infrastructure money goes to U.S. suppliers.

While he risks angering some in his own party, he will upset several countries if he allows the protectionist measures currently included to stand. Some have even threatened legal action or countering legislation.

The real drama will come if the bill arrives at his desk with the "buy America" requirements still included. WWOD?
