Yes. Most obviously, I said there were two "advantages" to Bush and the GOP from what they've done, and you've chosen to ignore the second, which I said was the more significant.
Moreover, I never suggested that Bush didn't believe in free trade. Indeed, in another post I suggested that he does believe in it, which makes it all the more disappointing that he's not willing to invest political capital in it. He has let political expediency trump his avowed principles.
