Obama Haunted by NAFTA Doubletalk
Obama Haunted by NAFTA Doubletalk
WASHINGTON, Feb. 29 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- "Senator Barack Obama faces a huge credibility gap on NAFTA," declared Tom Buffenbarger, president of the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAM). "In a nationally televised debate, he told Ohioans he would renegotiate the treaty. But just weeks earlier, his senior economic adviser signaled to a foreign government that the Senator's anti-NAFTA stance would be just 'campaign rhetoric.'"
According to the CTV Television Network, a senior economic adviser to the Obama campaign, Austan Goolsbee, contacted the Canadian Consulate General in Chicago to telegraph Obama's pro-NAFTA stance. Goolsbee is the Robert P. Gwinn Professor of Economics at the University of Chicago, a Fulbright Scholar and a New York Times columnist.
The CTV story, which aired on February 27, has roiled political discussion in both Canada and the United States. The network stood by its story in a follow-up report released today:

"Which is it, Senator Obama? Are you pro-NAFTA, or anti-NAFTA?" asked Buffenbarger. "If Senator Obama is really an anti-NAFTA candidate, he will repudiate Austan Goolsbee and his message to the Canadian government. And he should do so before Ohioans and Texans vote."
The IAM is among the nation's largest trade unions, representing nearly 720,000 active and retired members in manufacturing, aerospace, shipbuilding, transportation and defense-related industries.

He is also going to be haunted by his "immediate troop withdrawal from Iraq" statements.
