the com-Post always has its share of worthless and ridiculous articles, but I’ve noticed the past few months they’ve printed more than a few balanced articles. I wonder what gives. bashing Clinton, one praising Cruz, airing dem’s dirty laundry...probably just a fluke

don’t know. could be they just hate pantsuit and they only praised Cruz for doing something most politicians don’t do, apologizing after the Biden incident. they still loathe him.
shocked though that they would discuss demonrat infighting.

I’ve had those feelings in the past but I have learned to ignore them.

The vitriol started with Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.). As the Senate prepared to vote on fast track last month (it passed 62 to 38), the liberal darling was so vocal about the secrecy surrounding Obama's Trans-Pacific Partnership deal with 11 other countries that she earned a rare diss from Obama.
"She's absolutely wrong," a frustrated Obama told Yahoo News.
A few weeks earlier, Obama accused Warren and her colleague Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio) of spreading "misinformation that stirs up the base but ultimately doesn't serve them."
We all know from 6 years of history that only truth comes out of Obummer's mouth and Warren has to be wrong cause Obie says she is wrong!!! /s

Just know that when the vote really counts -- such as the TPA re-vote scheduled by the House Boner for next Tuesday -- the Democrats -- socialists at their core -- will rally around their mulatto-Marxist-muslim cult leader if the votes of the Stupid Party appear to be falling short.

Does anyone know Hillary’s position on this issue?
To: dp0622
Yes, the ComPost is usually a lying partisan POS, but this is balanced. The fact is that the dem party got effin wacked last election because of Obama and part of their base, the unions, dont want to blindly leap when told to jump off a cliff.

There is only one issue to determine votes. That’s jobs. Approval should be given only if there will be more jobs in the USA. USA’s fast track to the dumps needs to end.

“Labor unions, those well-funded foundations of all that is good for the Democratic Party, absolutely hate the trade deals. Unions have promised to spend cash, lots of it, to take out any Democrat who supports Friday’s vote.”
Maybe they can spare some union cash to go after the Republicans who voted for the TAA too? Oh wait, they already do that!
