Trade promotion authority or fast track gives up the 66% Senate approval the Constitution requires to pass a trade bill. that is thrown away for a simple 51% up or down vote in Congress, no debate and no amendments. what this equals is a an Obama dictatorship as treaties override U.S. laws.

so fast track = obama rewriting U.S. immigration laws, gun laws etc. = the end of America

It very sad and true .

The worst part is the Dems have set themselves to regain power after this treason is passed in 2016 by blaming the utterly corrupt Gop . then the Dems will abuse this open treaty for decades thereafter. The stupid corrupt party will be finished. P> The Dems know how corrupt and amoral and stupid the Gop leaders are plus the leading Gop are supporting this Anti American Treaty enen thiugh most of these Gop crooks have never even read it but were told by K street to support or else. The Dems and Clinton are going to retake power by having a PR campaign fighting this Awful treaty which they actually do love thanks to the massive amnesty . They will trash the corrupt Gop and turncoat Obama in a massive ad campaign The Gop base will stay home thanks to details of the secret Treaty being released and the idiot Gop candidate being on record supporting this Anti American treaty.

It’s going to be death by 1,000 cuts for the GOP in the run up to 2016. The kenyan will drag this trade debate out into the POTUS election year one trade “agreement” at a time. TPP, TTIP, TiSA, etc. BOHICA.

The GOP can forget Ohio, PA, Wisconsin, etc. in 2016. I don’t see a path to White House now for the GOP. They chose Wall Street over Main Street and will pay for it in 2016.

The Dems have a core ideology. You at least have to respect them for that. The GOP has nothing of the sort. In willfully surrendering their constitutional powers to Obama we see here the GOP is simply the Pay Me party. They simply have no concern whatsoever for Main Street USA enduring multiple assaults.

Just wait until the GOP decide to “fix” Obamacare. That’s going to be fun. McConnell & Boehner are just getting started. Sad to see so many good FReepers duped by them. I never would have expected that.

A very astute assessment of 2016.

The Dems and Obama will use this god awful treaty that he created in secret as a spring board back to complete power and probably for decades thanks to the treaty being set up as Open so The Dems can set up a massive uneducated third world invasion.

Ugh.

I forgot about the leaders of the stupid party namely

Mitchy and Johny would never let the Insurance industry donors lose money under any circumstances .

Only the American taxpayers are supposed to be screwed in there world..

The utter contempt the Gop leaders have. for the base is amazing.
You should have heard the snide contempt Marsha Blackburn's aide had for me when I asked him what it was like to work for a bought off political hack who sold out there fellow American for money and are they enjoying doing Obamas dirty work on a treaty so awful the Dems are running from it.
This Gop leadership is a lost cause.

This is from your link from trey gowdy “the agreement will receive an up or down vote in Congress, ensuring a good deal is protected from amendments seeking to kill it.”

That clearly states that fast track means an up or down vote and no amendments

I KNOW that for treaties the Constitution requires 66% Senate approval and amendments are allowed. and with fast track or trade promotion they want to lower it to 51% and no amendments. that's a dictatorship and the end of America. Obama can basically rewrite USA laws as treaties override USA laws.

You can keep your doctor. you can also keep your job and your freedom and country (the 3 current lies)

This is unconstitutional. We want amendments that could kill a bad bill as the Constitution allows. We want 66% approval not 51% It's sick that many are supporting this evil bill because some candidate's position on it. we should all be united in stopping this can calling congress. This is not about a single candidate's position on it. It' s about the destruction of America. I just want it stopped. Any American should want it stopped. It's ridiculous . I never thought I'd have to tell people on this forum that they are propagandizing for their own destruction as they are pushing this awful trade authority.

Yes I did read the Gowdy PR. Sadly, it’s full of the same straw arguments and false choices as the stuff the Cruz camp is putting out.

Fact is TPP is now a done deal. It’s Top Secret because it’s so bad they don’t want us to know what’s in it. Congressional oversight at this point after six years of negotiations is moot because a 51 vote threshold guarantees passage in the Senate.

Obama & the GOP will have no problem buying the required votes to get Obamatrade through the House.

Therefore, a vote for TPA is a vote for TPP. History will not be kind to those who chose Wall Street over Main Street and voted for TPA.

We should email Gowdy and all these others and ask them why are they for giving Obama more power, lowering Senate approval from 66% to 51% and taking away amendments. they think we are stupid.

Yes this country is over if they pass this trade promotion authority. Why do they trust Obama with more power? And that treaty is anti American.

We should email Gowdy and all these others and ask them why are they for giving Obama more power, lowering Senate approval for treaties from 66% to 51% and taking away amendments. they think we are stupid. I wish I could give them a piece of my mind . Traitors or idiots or both?

If it’s good for American jobs, why do they need any assistance for displaced workers?

They know.

Look at the devastation of our economy from the trade we have now, and yet they want more.

Greed has no limitations...
