The problem of passing it without knowing what's in it, and the seemingly absurd lack of information on it, allowing us to see none of what's in it is more than troubling. I'm shocked that Cruz has voted for it.
As to the relationship between Walker and Ryan, they're from the same party, the same state, and both are nationally known politicians. Ryan has turned out to be untrustworthy for some fairly important issues from my viewpoint, Walker is not as wonky as Ryan, appears to be more conservative, and with the vote of Cruz on TPP, his positions on H1 visas, I am seeing them as two equally flawed yet great conservatives. I like them both and hope one of them catches fire, would prefer if they both leapt out in front of the pack, the race ending with both of them duking it out with all others having dropped out.
I am not ready to drop Cruz as my favorite, I just don't understand his support for this.
Erick Erickson interviewed Sen. Jeff Sessions on Rush today. As a senator, Sessions has also seen ‘that which doesn’t yet exist.’
He says it is awful. It cedes authority to an international body in a law that says about ITSELF that it is living. IOW, the parties to it are being given permission to change it at will. He says it is backdoor immigration.
He gives all thumbs down to it.
Now, how can different conservative senators see this 180 degrees different than each other?
