    vs.  

Here's Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio) ranting against free trade from the floor of the U.S. Senate:

"[I] would love to go anywhere in the United States and have a public debate to show the public and show the American people how much this [international trade] has undermined our sovereignty, our wealth, our manufacturing base."

I guess we'll soon see if Brown's challenge is real or mere rhetorical flourish. Reason contributor and George Mason University Economic Chair Don Boudreaux has taken Brown up on his challenge.

Obligatory egg-it-on Facebook group here.
