Cruz voting for a bill that was never available to be scrutinized by the public makes me think that all politicians are truly alike. F$ckin useless.

Frankly, this is one bill Senator Cruz should of taken a pass on. To give this administration more executive power over trade agreements is not a good move.

Ted and the GOPs are pissing on our backs and telling us it’s rain.
Piss stinks and is warm, rain is sweet smelling and cool.

Well, the Vietnamese sure are excited about the TPP.

More firms are likely to head here after the passage of the TPP, they said, because it will reduce tariffs on Vietnamese exports to the US to near zero.

And they expect many more us factories to locate there with their cheaper than China labor and the near zero tariffs on goods shipped the US they expect under the TPP.

US firms move footwear factories to Vietnam ahead of TPP

That's how these trade agreements usually work: they make it easier to relocate US factories to cheap labor nations and they eliminate, or almost eliminate all tariffs when the American brand goods are shipped to the US.

Another NAFTA, which took our slightly favorable trade balance with Mexico to a $60 billion deficit.

And they've all been sold with this, open foreign markets to US goods and create jobs in America BS.

I guess Ted has to answer to his big money donors too. You’re wrong on this one Ted.

Do I have this right? It's good for the US worker if the US lowers to near-zero tariffs on these countries because Chinese wages are too high?

And because we can trust Obama with more authority.

JMHO....Senator Cruz has been spending too much time with those large donors.

Wow! I have lost all faith in CRUZ..... T

his is worse than the TARP that most in congress now say was a colossal mistake.

Then we had the Obama care debacle, and soon as the Republicans won congress... Said they would leave it there.

Then we had the open borders and say nothing about it. absolutely astounding!

I had left the Republican party, but would still cast many votes for them..... No More!

I will NEVER vote for a single Republican again. They are f*cking Traitors to their supporters. DONE! I’m not falling for the Bull $hit anymore.

The Tea Party is going to have to separate from the Republican party because the GOPe is just keeping them in check.

I bet this too....2016 the Democrats will win the White House.

Why do they act like this is the only trade bill that could pass? Why don’t they scrap it and come up with a non-secret bill that doesn’t give Obama any more power to destroy America?

"The American middle class is getting crushed by the Obama economy," said Sen. Cruz."

Another windbag. Where was he during the Bush administration? Perot was the last guy that heard the sucking sound of trade deals where we trade American middle class jobs for trade deficits.

If it wasn’t this, it was going to be something else. I just knew that this type of support for one guy was going to turn out badly. If folks are turning on Cruz...Walker, Paul have no chance.

The Democrats have nothing to worry about.

All of that Constitutional knowledge and determination is lying around Ted’s feet in a mess on the floor. He may be every bit the scholar but his judgment is seriously flawed. Giving any such authority to this president is like approving of the secret Iran deal. Oh. he approved that, too. CRUZ IS A DAMNNABLE GOPE! And you know that what happened to all our bright clean pure conservatives we elected to Congress in two elections will probably happen to whoever we elect to the Presidency. I do not share Mark Levin’s optimism that we can turn this train wreck around by electing a solid conservative. There is no such thing any more after an election. The impossibility of turning the trainwreck around is right there. The train is already wrecked.
