Paul Ryan (R-Wis.), who led the GOP effort to whip votes for the trade bills, warned that defeating the trade package would make the U.S. look unreliable on the international stage.

It is, in fact, Ryan who makes Republicans look unreliable.

Trash NAFTA and any trade deal we have with China. That would restore millions of good jobs lost in our country.

Finally, a slap in the fact of the parasitic foreign exchange student who is president!

Maybe Cruz was crazy like a fox after all. Deliver a poison pill to the President, and that supposedly a liberal thang.

LOL!
It’ll pass next time up.

Pelosi just wants Boehner to give her more stuff- and he will.

Antiexceptionalism.

America that once knew it was a 500 lb. gorilla, now acting like a 5 lb. monkey desperate for attention.

The incredible shrinking country, can’t even wait to do things the right way.

One democrat staffer said "He hasn't done anything for us, and he'll be gone in a year and a half anyway, while the labor unions will be here forever."

Lame duck status is creeping up on old Barry.

He’s normally for ANY handout.

But he doesn’t want the tie, that would embarrass his act.

Wrong. 0bama makes the U.S. look unreliable on the international stage. See: Egypt, Israel, Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Ukraine, Poland, Czech Republic, etc. etc. etc.

>>Trash NAFTA and any trade deal we have with China.<<

NAFTA was in part sold on the promise that it would lift impoverished Mexicans standard of living.

Big fat lie. Corps used the super cheap labor until it became too expensive, then moved many operations to China.

The impoverished are still impoverished. Ever been to Messy-co? A third world country just a stones throw away.

Instead of using our military thousands of miles away, how bout sending about 10K troops down along our border. Shut down the cartels, human smuggling.

Oh wait, it’s the Democrats of the House that did not want that handout. Which... the REPUBLICANS put in there!

Someone hand me a program. I can’t tell the players any more.

Good for the democrats!!!

Obama doesn't have to stand for re-election, while Congressmen do, and labor hates this bill. That's the whole story, really.

What in the world will they do for the Sunday morning programs? Normally Chrissy Mathews, et. al., would come down hard on the Republican opposition and promise revenge for insulting the King!

But this time too many Dems joined in. What to do, what to do?

It’ll be interesting to see how they fall all over themselves to explain this one.

And, drawing a page from the Dem book, the GOP was ponying up a bribe to labor to try to woo them.

Now it’s suddenly “Oh I see what you are doing, you briber out of the public purse.” But the Dems are saying it.

My Congressman, Dave Brat voted against. He is a huge improvement over the weasel Eric Cantor, who would have been whipping votes for it.

More districts need to realize they have term limits in their hands.

Primary the weasels out.

Well I don’t know, this might be a cross between Kabuki theater and crazy like a fox.

It is the GOP that also got the poison pill in there.

The democrats will make up for it by doing something really treasonous tomorrow.
