Congress’s tax-writing committees reached agreement Thursday on legislation to give President Obama “fast track” authority to negotiate an ambitious trade accord with 11 other Pacific nations,....

Saw this one coming a while back...wonder what they got in return for doing this? Had to be something as much rides on this for Obama.

My first take on this was that they had surrendered the whole thing to him. I read that they had retained the ability to vote it down. They just can’t change the agreement.

Of course they won’t vote against it. These men are convinced trade is going to save our nation, even though the type of trade we have had going on is destroying it.

It puts our people out of work. It causes others to have to take jobs that pay half as much as they used to make. It increases our trade deficits.

This isn’t productive unless you’re George Soros or another Leftist that hates the U. S.
