Word is out there are carbon taxes in the Trans Pacific Partnership. That's only one small part of the TPP that is hidden from the public.

Again if it's so great, then why hide it? Did the Republicans forget "you have to pass it to find out what is in it" Obamacare scam?

The Republican Senate, a week or so ago, passed the TPA which gives Obama the "Fast Track" authority he needs in order to pass the TPP other scams.

So now the desperate GOPe is trying to sell their followers this steaming pile of $hit by saying Paul Ryan is now adding a provision to bar the president from using trade to act on climate.

NEWS FLASH... The congress can already do that now without this "provision" rubbish. That provision is a Trojan horse to make Republicans think they are safe from a carbon tax. It will not stop it.

Bottom line this is the GOPe trying to bamboozle it's supporters once again.

How about an amendment to block scamnesty provisions? Or an amendment to block gun grabbing provisions?

Better yet, how about withdrawing the damn bill in the best interest of the United States and its citizens?

Folks, this is WONDERFUL news.

Ryan knows this is a poison pill for a BUNCH of Democrats...hell, Obama just announced it was of his major tools in the battle on Climate Change.

SO this tells us that the House #1 advocate for TPA/TPP wants to torpedo this deal (doesn't have the votes) in a way that casts blame on DEMOCRATS.

These are some filthy ba$tards folks.

But we won.

You heard it here first.

Why is the GOP not reading the bill on the floor?

true or false?

the TPP has some kind of ‘rules change’ in Congress.
when delivered to Congress.
Congress has ?60 days, to pass some kind of a
‘NO’ vote, or TPP becomes law?

The TPP international commission can override any US law, sorry.

NAFTA courts are getting rid of something as harmless of country of origin meat labeling.

How can you amend a bill you are not allowed to coherently study ? Do you have tag teams going in to read the parts you want to amend, then they run out and tell you what to amend before they forget it ?

He is trying to give cover to Republicans who are being asked to vote ‘yes’ on this treason.
