Makes sense to me. I think the implicit message is "hey Dems, STFU, trading with these guys is in our interest and who cares about their worker conditions or labor laws, if you don't like it, don't buy the products in your local WalMart. And SFTU"
Works for me. For example, I hate the French government and find their people unhygienic boorish idiots, however they make good wine and cheese and there is no reason I should deny myself those pleasures, even if they are pocketing the dough. If I only traded my money or services with people who I like or approve of....I would be living the life of the unibomber. Without the bombs.
