Democrats get off your assess and get your guy under control
Screw globalism and free trade.
Why should foreign companies not subject to the same hamstringing environmental and labor regulations and laws that American companies are, be allowed to sell their goods here without any tariffs, as if it is actually a level playing field?
ok, wth is classified about a trade meeting??
The regime becomes more and more secretive about its own behavior. The more anyone pushes for “transparency” the more 0bama shuts people out.
Money bets...this is a Middle East Trade Agreement to bring jobs to jihadists.
A few months ago it leaked from 0bama’s own mouth that they believe by giving jobs, creating jobs, etc. for the Middle East it will stop terrorism/jihad.
Moslem King-Caliph Obama:
“’Transparency’ is my ability to read all your mail,
all your IRS and medical papers, everything on your
computer, and for you to have access to NOTHING.”
Oh come on guys, Obama wouldn’t keep things secret, would he?
It’s obviously the Republicans fault. It’s their War on Women©. Or something about denying racist© climate change©. Or because they hate children and the middle class. But even with all that, it could still be Bushs’ fault©.
The Obama regime trying to hide another bad deal...
The GOP needs to strongly support American trade.
Stand up GOP.
Yep - them "principled" folks who couldn't vote against him because "the alternative was just as bad" and who will do the same when it comes to seating Queen Hillary", were absolutely right.....
“...where you have a concentration of power in a few hands, all too frequently men with the mentality of gangsters get control. History has proven that... Every thing secret degenerates, even the administration of justice; nothing is safe that does not show how it can bear discussion and publicity.” Lord Acton
When the Tea Party and Elizabeth Warren appear to be in agreement on something, it must stink to high heaven.
More transparency, People.
“The TPP is a massive, controversial ‘free trade’ agreement currently being pushed by big corporations and negotiated behind closed doors by officials from the United States and 11 other countries – Australia, Brunei, Canada, Chile, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore, and Vietnam [and probably later, China will sign on].
“And U.S. TPP negotiators literally used the 2011 Korea FTA [Free Trade Agreement] – under which [US] exports have fallen and [US] trade deficits have surged [and 85,000 US jobs have been lost] – as the template for the TPP.
“We only know about the TPP’s threats thanks to leaks – the public is not allowed to see the draft TPP text. Even members of Congress, after being denied the text for years, are now only provided limited access. Meanwhile, more than 500 official corporate ‘trade advisors’ have special access. The TPP has been under negotiation for six years, and the Obama administration wants to sign the deal this year…”
Yes, secret deal. The public is not permitted to see what is in it. We only know some of what’s in it because of several partial leaks.
Obama wants Congress to fast-track the TPP with a strict up or down vote: no amendments permitted; no filibustering; the final vote must take place within 90 days of the TPP’s introduction on the floor of Congress; no Committee vetting first.
This is your transparent President.
From what we can glean about the TPP so far, these will be some of its effects (consider how each effect can impact employment in the United States:
offshoring more US jobs; inviting more corporate pollution; importing more foods (unsafe, incompletely unlabeled); outlawing restrictions on GMO foods while expanding mega-corporate agriculture; encouragement granted to Wall Street to multiply the same kinds of insane investments that crashed markets eight years ago; US federal contracts to private companies will be forced to take competitive bids from any corporation in any TPP member country.”
