Treaty Negotiated In Secret – Hidden Even from Congressmen Who Oversee Treaties...

Zero Hedge ^ | 06/14/2012 | George Washington

[Errant]

The normally-reserved Yves Smith asks whether Obama should be impeached over it.

Democratic Senator Wyden – the head of the committee which is supposed to oversee it – is so furious about the lack of access that he has introduced legislation to force disclosure.

Republican House Oversight Committee Chairman Darrell Issa is so upset by it that he has leaked a document on his website to show what’s going on.

What is everyone so furious about?

An international treaty being negotiated in secret which would not only crack down on Internet privacy much more than SOPA or ACTA, but would actually destroy the sovereignty of the U.S. and all other signatories.

[Errant]

Unbelievable! This is an unmitigated, dastardly attempt to circumvent and subvert the Constitution of the United States.

Add this to the growing list of impeachable offenses by the Obama Administration.

Video report also at link.

Treaty Negotiated In Secret – Hidden Even from Congressmen Who Oversee Treaties – Threatens to Destroy National Sovereignty

I doubt the lily-white cowards in Congress will do little more than huff-and-puff about this—Don’t want to be called racists by the MSM, y’know.

[rawhide]

This is illegal for sure. Now does Congress have the balls to stand up to the president and his comrades?

[Inyo-Mono]

It just goes on and on.

[Logical me]

This is treason by a hard core communists. Impeachment must be started by the House and no delay. Must be started within a few weeks.

I don’t trust Democracy Now!

Is there a better source somewhere?

" . . . growing list of impeachable offenses . . . "

So what's the magic number he has to reach before he's elected dictator for life?

Holy cow. From the libtard comments on the site......they are pi$$ed!

Same with the leak the other day from HuffPoo about Obama globalizing and protecting corporations.

Is there a better source somewhere?

Link to document mentioned on Issa's webpage: Issa Releases the Trans Pacific Partnership Intellectual Property Rights Chapter on KeepTheWebOPEN.com

At least that exits, as mentioned in the report.

Issa is so upset by it that he has leaked a document on his website to show what’s going on.

SO IMPEACH THE POS ISSA...

Latest outrage ping.

[Yo-Yo]

The U.S. Senate still have to ratify any treaty with a 2/3 majority vote.

Zero can negotiate in secret all he wants, but the Senate still has to ratify it, and they won’t ratify what they can’t read.

SO IMPEACH THE POS ISSA...

But you are right to not trust them, as they’re indirectly funded by Soros. Doesn’t make sense that they would be exposing this unless these Progressives and Democrats are upset at Obama enough to throw him “under the bus.”

[Errant]

See the video as it goes into detail. I can’t believe this is from Democracy Now. They sound more like Real News on GBTV.

Yeah, there’s this thing called a Republic although it isn’t a guarantee against widespread evil at the top of a government.
