In response to people who are afraid that he voted to give more power to Obama, he said that he didn't trust Obama at all. Obama won't be in the office in 19 months. He looked into the future for the next president to have an authority to negotiate. Hopefully, the next president will be a Republican, especially him. Now is the time to get it passed with Democrats. If we wait for the next administration (Republican), Democrats in Congress will vote it down no matter what.
For TPP, he said it was stupid to have the text classified. He READ the TPP. It was relatively a straightforward trade agreement. He didnt have weeks to study each paragraph closely. Unfortunately, from the past history of the administrations abuse of power, the secrecy gives the impression that they are hiding something horrible in the bill. Fortunately, under TPA they have to make any trade agreement, including TPP, public for 60 days before the Congress can vote on it. People can study closely at this time. But personally he wanted the text public right now.
Isara, it seems some have a agenda here to stop Ted Cruz and spread false propaganda, and then there are those who’s hearing is defective.
For all you Ted Cruz haters, and those spreading false propaganda here on Free Republic about Ted Cruz.
For TTP he said ( yes, himself , Ted Cruz said ) “ that he thought it was stupid to have it classified text. “
Now what part of he said, that would be Ted Cruz, that he thought it was stupid that it was classified text, that you don’t get ?
The parrots agenda of propaganda.
Now shut the heck up !
It’s been explained to you over and over and over again, time and time again.
NOW SHUT THE HECK UP YOU !
Isara, you KNOW that even if this deal sells America down the river (and what else might we expect from Obama?), they will be able to cobble together enough people from both sides in each house to pass it. When did any of these sordid deals ever get defeated?
