what does supporting free trade have to do with fast track? One can support free trade all they want and still require that Congress be involved and Obama NOT be allowed to ram his deal down our throats
If the trade bill is so damn great, why is under wraps? Why is it a secret? Why are members of Congress being threatened with charges of treason if they divulge any of the contents of this so-called bill?
I thought Obama promised the most transparent administration in history. Liar.
Love ya Ted, but you were wrong to support this so-called trade bill.
“what does supporting free trade have to do with fast track?”
Absolutely nothing. Ted Cruz has stepped in doo doo ala Gang of Eight territory and he is trying to spin his way out of the swamp.
They didn’t need TPA to jam NAFTA down our throat or the 11 or so trade deals Bush made during his 2 terms. Its just a load of BS.
They need TPA to pass TPP because they know they can’t get a two-thirds majority to vote for TPP. That’s the bottom line.

Cruz already explained this.
Countries do not want to enter into an agreement if it can be modified by Congress AFTER agreeing to it.
