According to Public Citizen, a non-profit organization, President Obama’s Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP) would drastically extend President Bill Clinton’s North American Trade Agreement (NAFTA) from 1994 — which has been widely criticized for costing millions of Americans their jobs.

BUT does it further glorify the divinity of the Obama?
That’s gonna leave a mark.
That's the goal.
Unregulated foreign trade, illegal immigration, government-sponsored unions. These are killing jobs here, But when you suggest putting an end to them, liberals scream “Fascism!”. Yet they’ll continue blaming Republicans for unemployment.
A big brown, long one in the pants of many supporters of Obamatrade.
"But, generally speaking, the Protective system in these days is conservative, while the Free Trade system works destructively. It breaks up old nationalities and carries antagonism of proletariat and bourgeoisie to the uttermost point. In a word, the Free Trade system hastens the Social Revolution. In this revolutionary sense alone, gentlemen, I am in favor of Free Trade." - Karl Marx
...since when did the negative impact of their legislation ever stop Congress?
On this LOVE for Globalism and all things Goldmann Sachs,
Sen Cruz LOST his 1st place lead.
Better he was outed as a RINO, now.
Why do people call it ‘Obamatrade’ when the Republican leadership is pushing so hard for it? More Republicans are for it than Democrats!
It’s idiotic to call it that, all it does is INCREASE the chances of marginal libs pr progressives supporting it when they are opposed to it right now.
ONLY the center of BOTH parties is for it, as many far lefties hate it as people on the right, but if people keep calling it ‘Obamatrade’ then it makes it MORE likely for them to reason that if the Republicans are against it then they should be for it.
Whatever person started calling it “Obamatrade” should be ashamed of themselves, and has made it MORE likely to pass. might as well call it “Bohnertrade”.
Yeah, he wants to vote for TPA so he can vote against TPP (as it will then be a slam dunk). Disingenuous?!
You have a great point.
Hey, no worry. There are “adjustments” for displaced American workers, and besides Cruz voted for it—so it is all good.
The bad news is Bonehead and McConnell are going to try to ram this
bill through Thursday.
The good news is the RINOs and fake conservatives will get the chance
to vote yes TWICE on this.
I bet most of them are beginning to squirm like worms having to vote
yes twice on this bill.
They will soon be “Double Exposed” to primary challengers.
Who is this Karl Marx guy anyway-- probably just another anti-Cruz troll...
there must be a ton of money out there lining the pockets of Boehner, McConnell and their friends to support this.
Hard to believe I stand with Pelosi on voting no.
Aren’t they already devastated?
“there must be a ton of money out there lining the pockets of Boehner, McConnell and their friends to support this.”
Yeah, they will fall into post legislative positions as lobbyists, investment bankers, and the like.
Sort of like goode olde Denny Hastert, with $3.5 million to throw around.
LL...hadn’t heard from your Gloalist/Goldman Sachs talking points lately, Diog. Kinda missed the drivel.
BTw, how is old Rand doing?
I agree with the Representative that said that regulations and high corporate taxes are what sent jobs overseas.
