This is why we elected the GOP in November?
Any Senator that votes for this,
Sen. Cruz included,
abrogates their candidacy for POTUS.
When the Chamber of Commerce calls, Boehner and company ask “How high?”. This Congress should not give this despot power like this. The Congress has not done one thing to stand up to El Caudillo. They have not done one thing for the American people. They have spent their time pleasing the K Street lobbyists.
I say vote NO on this mess.
That’s just my view, but I am completely against this, as it currently is hidden away and nobody really knows what is in it.
We do not need to sell ever more of America to the world. What we need is to turn our focus to re-growing America for a change.
Completely corrupt. I don’t know how, but we HAVE to get Boner and Mitch out of there, and all the other RINO fascist pigs.
Traitors.
Yeah, sure would be awful if the HOR spent ANOTHER weekend listening to their constituents.
Bought and sold bunch of whores. (With appropriate apologies to upstanding whores).
The political repercussions will be enormous due to the bi-partisan advocacy, and the bi-partisan resistance.
And a PRINCIPLED resistance it is.
You will hear a LOT about this agreement in the summer of 2016, in every primary, for every party, for every elected federal office.
The argument to congressmen should be succinct.
1) Nothing bad will happen if this TPP fails.
2) Many exceedingly bad things are thought to take place if Obama is given this power and he decrees the TPP without the vote of the senate.
3) If these exceedingly bad things do come about because of your vote, you will not only be stripped of office, but you and your entire family will lose their citizenship, be deported and denied reentry to the United States ever again, your names will be stricken from the rolls, everything you ever earned will be forfeit, and your name will be a curse on the lips of Americans for a generation.
So what we have here is a grand bargain for the American people: The corporations and business elite get to reap all the benefits of any potential deal, and the US TAXPAYER gets to pick up the costs, from a depleted treasury and depleted capital base.
Who the hell wouldn't vote for THAT deal?!?!?
After all, our GOP POTUS Candidates in the Senate did.
Everybody please light up the phone of your representative in the House.

Let them know voting for the TPA to give special powers to Obama is a complete deal breaker and you will not support any Republican if they vote for it. Or just general scream a lot, your choice.
Any vote for anything obama wants is a vote to destroy the country.
The GOP needs to be thrown out!

I am contacting you because I believe any vote for the TPA would be a DISGUSTING betrayal of the American people. Republican leadership even calling for a vote is incomprehensible. This is what we volunteered for and donated for to get more Republican control of Congress??!!!!
In one breath Republicans tell us over and over again that Obama cannot be trusted. Then you and other leaders want to vote to give him Special Powers and take away powers from Congress to Obama’s benefit!!!
TPA takes the 2/3 vote for a treaty away from the Senate (Don’t tell me it’s not a treaty. We are already hearing this SECRET TPP is going to do FAR more than any trade bill ever has before).
TPA takes the 60-vote cloture away from the Senate to pass the TPP. Why would you give this to Obama??!!
Voting for the TPA takes away any member of Congress’ right to offer amendments to the TPP that Obama gets to negotiate in SECRET.
I could go on, but you get the point. It is INEXCUSABLE and UNACCEPTABLE for Republicans to support the TPA or even call for a vote. Any person voting for this disgusting legislation should never be allowed to stay in office, go to a higher office, or even not be reminded daily that they BETRAYED us.
This Obamatrade (TPA) is just like Obamacare and we will never forget this. Please do the decent thing and do not support a vote for the TPA. It is a complete betrayal of our country and what the Republican party claims to care about.
Boehner making another unholy deal with Pelosi to use Rat votes to push it through.
Anytime anything is “granted” to Obama, it can’t be good for America. I’m just guessing but it very well may be the one world government they want is about to go into effect.
Why would the GOP give Obola any more power?
Oh yea, because they’re stupid. McBama and Oboner are fools!
Obama and the Republican leadership have decided that the world no longer needs republican or parliamentary democracy, and that the future lies with a one-world corporatocratic socialist government.
This trade deal is a big part of “Operation Rollerball”.

Anything Bambi wants should be extinguished. He’s already screwed our healthcare system and is dragging the economy into the crapper.
