I was thinking they were worthless to just about any conservative who likes American sovereignty.

Is this a myth?

Sen Jeff Sessions is against it.

Mark Levin is against it.

Drudge is against it.

If what Jeff Sessions has been disclosing about Obamatrade is true, the amendment Cruz attempted to get added to address what he saw as an executive power grab of the electorate through executive immigration authority is true, a significant number of House Republicans are fighting against it, Boehner has been trying to keep it secret from the public and get it passed ASAP, and now Wikileaks is dovetailing with what both senator’s have been saying about the bill, we have an irrevocable power grab like we have never seen about to become law.

I know I am repeating myself from another thread on this subject, but handing this kind of legislative authority over to a true narcissist, who is clearly trying to overrun and overwhelm our system and citizenry is completely outrageous!

In all honesty, this is the same principle or strategy of “hiring” a foreign army or body politic to defeat and control your own opposing citizenry. In this case freedom loving citizenry.

In one historical case, a king, (who in the end was executed after a bloody civil war), was charged with “paying from the public treasury [from taxes] a foreign army,” to bribe public servants, enforce higher taxation, control and wage war against his own citizenry, and to defeat the army his own country raised to try and stop him.

There are several instances and variations of this strategy being employed throughout history.

This is quite literally what appears to be happening.

The RNC becomes Obama dog meat.

What absolute garbage!!

1. How can this so called expert know what is in an agreement that is totally surrounded in secrecy??!!

2. His analysis completely overlooks the fact that the TPA takes away the Senate’s 60-vote cloture right. Giving away power from congress to Obama.

3. This partisan shill also overlooks the fact that the TPA changes our nation’s law so no member of Congress can offer amendments to modify this secret TPP.

This is the kind of garbage a bunch of internationalists hope we will all look at and take as credible.

Don’t be a fool folks. Most politicians, Republicans or Democrats, don’t give a dam about you if they think they can benefit instead.

If the TPA and TPP were so great they would be public and they wouldn’t be trying to ram this through so fast.

Wonderful “We have to approve it so we can see what’s inside it” analysis.

That worked out so well last time.

Gee, I’m not confused at all....

As far as I am concerned, until the TPP is complety transparent so every word, dot and period can be read...it should not be passed...

“Myth 5: TPP is being negotiated via a dangerous and unprecedented level of secrecy!”

Yes, and war is peace, up is down, and black is white. And everyone who goes in to read it does not have to surrender his phone and surrender his notes upon leaving. And Senator Sessions is laughing his head off at everyone who believes his wild tales. That is also why the government printing press is running 24/7 to make sure everyone who wants a copy can get it before the final vote.

“...not a secret corporatist plot to usurp the U.S. Constitution and install global government...”

Well, in that case, just go ahead and publish it to quickly dispel any conspiracy thoughts.
