Hillary says she'd vote against 'Fast Track' without guarantee on worker aid
Washington Examiner ^ | June 19, 2015 | Ariel Cohen

Posted on 06/19/2015 4:03:04 PM PDT by PJ-Comix

Hillary Clinton said she would vote against the "Fast Track" trade bill passed by the House on Thursday if she were still in the Senate, unless she was "absolutely confident" trade adjustment assistance would be provided.

Clinton's comment that she would not approve "Fast Track," which is a tool for negotiating the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) trade deal, came during an interview with Jon Ralston on Thursday night, following her appearance at the NALEO conference in Las Vegas, Nev.

"At this point, probably not because it's a process vote and I don't want to say it's the same as TPP," Clinton said. "Right now, I'm focused on making sure we get trade adjustment assistance and I certainly would not vote for it unless I were absolutely confident we would get trade adjustment assistance."

This was pretty inevitable. At least 45 times Hillary has spoken in favor of TPP UNTIL it turned out such support would harm her candidacy.

I love how these politicians talk about caring about U. S. jobs, then say absolutely nothing about tens of millions of illegal immigrants who take real jobs.

Hillary Clinton is lying . Hillary is for Obamatrade

This Obama trade deal is a trojan horse.It’s disguised as “free trade” What It really allows is for Obama to flood the USA with an unlimited number of 3rd world immigrants ...

http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2015/04/dick_morris_fast_track_could_lead_to_unlimited_immigration.html

This Fast track gives Obama power to make treaties that override U.S. laws. It’s the destruction of the republic.It gives obama unlimited dictatorial power to destroy the U.S. Proof here :

http://getliberty.org/oppose-trade-authority-for-obama-on-pacific-trade-deal/
http://www.conservativehq.com/node/20233

Obama , Hillary, Jeb Bush ,Boner etc. all the villains support this evil bill. And the worst villain the mainstream media is for that obama trade bill because they are hiding it from the American people as they hide the Obama IRS scandal and other abuses of power.

Obamatrade is the worst bill ever, regulates all aspects of economy not just trade:

Don't you love it? The trade bill that won't cost US workers jobs has to provide compensation for the workers who will lose jobs.

Why has NOT ONE of the DC crowd said "no more trade bills until we fix or repeal the bad ones we already have"?

Ted Cruz, on the other hand, doesn’t flip-flop, pander, back down or abandon his principles, so hordes of people here deride him. Weird.

Hillary’s all for the perfect Democrat solution: destroy jobs in the U.S. by sending them overseas and then put those who lost their jobs on the government dole, thereby assuring that the losers will continue to vote for the party that gives them all the “free” stuff.

Why do we training assistence for Americans that lose their jobs? I guess Americans are going to lose there jobs. After Nafta — do we manufacture ANYTHING? How do you commit national suicide like the republicrats did? I guess you get money— or your spouce gets money. Let’s see what a fine deal obama negociates— like forces in place in Iraq. What a total failure is was, is and will be. But hillary is really turning out to be a clown.

I don't know why but many on “our” side voted to give Obama much more power on trade and to make trade deals that override U.S. laws on immigration and gun control etc. . Rand Paul , Ted Cruz, Bohner voted to give Obama this dictatorial power. and of course Jeb Bush is for this too. I won't support anyone that votes for this worst bill ever.

This Obama trade deal is a trojan horse.It’s disguised as “free trade” What It really allows is for Obama to flood the USA with an unlimited number of 3rd world immigrants ...

http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2015/04/dick_morris_fast_track_could_lead_to_unlimited_immigration.html

This is America government by the people and the land of the free, not an Obama dictatorship where Obama will bring in hundreds of million of 3rd world people to come here and take away our American jobs , our rights , our freedom, and our birthright.

Anyone who votes for this bill is not on our side ,on the side of Americans but they are on the side of foreign countries and foreigners who will move to the USA to take away our jobs and freedom

Rand Paul's immigration speech
...The Republican Party must embrace more legal immigration.

Unfortunately, like many of the major debates in Washington, immigration has become a stalemate-where both sides are imprisoned by their own rhetoric or attachment to sacred cows that prevent the possibility of a balanced solution.

Immigration Reform will not occur until Conservative Republicans, like myself, become part of the solution. I am here today to begin that conversation.

Let's start that conversation by acknowledging we aren't going to deport 12 million illegal immigrants.

If you wish to work, if you wish to live and work in America, then we will find a place for you...

This is where prudence, compassion and thrift all point us toward the same goal: bringing these workers out of the shadows and into being taxpaying members of society.

Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers.12 million more people assimilating into society. 12 million more people being productive contributors.

Rand Paul calls on conservatives to embrace immigration reform
Latinos, should be a natural constituency for the party, Paul argued, but "Republicans have pushed them away with harsh rhetoric over immigration." ...he would create a bipartisan panel to determine how many visas should be granted for workers already in the United States and those who might follow... [and the buried lead] "Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers...

Nope.

Smiley face

What is really going on here is the Dems are forcing the GOP to carry the kenyan's water.

It's a twofer for the Dems:

1)Split the GOP base.

2)Give the impression they are fighting for the "little guy" against the evil GOP who are for Wall Street, billionaires, etc.

The GOP are being set up big time for 2016 and they are walking right into it. They're just too greedy & arrogant to notice.

Ted just issued phony press releases on amending fast track which was illegal and impossible to fool people and when caught in that lie spins out a few more whoopers in Op-ed written with the most corrupt weasel and Amnesty Snake Paul KStreet Ryan . Ted is helping ramming thru to secret treaty so awful its top secret .What we do know is that
Ted support screwing the middle class and small business with taxes , amnesty, H1 visas , global warming fees and massive US corporate tax dodges which are all reportedly buried in this Treason

Good old Ted Goldman Sachs Cruz just cooked his reputation and the Gop will deservedly loose the House and Senate after the lovely detail of this Treason are made public.

The Dems set up the K street whore party for thrashing in 2016 by fighting against this Treason.
Drudge called it Gop Suicide and Treason

the Dems will have a field day trading the most Congress in my lifetime with ads about
Screwing the US workers for foreigners and Hedge funds and Big pharmacy corporations .

Exactly.

Idiots like Cruz and Rubio and Walker will be clobbered by supporting this treason Treaty and destroying the US workers for Pfizer , Goldman Sachs, Silicon Valley , Austin Semiconductor Billionaires, and Hedge Fund Slime,

These fools were set up by the Dems .
But this is the most utterly corrupt amoral Gop run Congress in my lifetime.

Frankly , Bonehead and McConnell are way more dangerous when in power.
They need to be driven from power by any means.

We are screwed in 2016 if this Treasonous Treaty is passed and its detailed released which the Soros Puppet will drop like a bomb on the Sleazy Crooked Gop traitors right around Sept 2016 . The details of this treason treaty will wipe the base and will be motivate the Dems. I can hear the 24-7 news reporting eagerly spitting out how the Gop sold out the nation. The Stupid and corrupt party needs to be killed off for a new party free of K street front men

Wow. So much misinformation in one post. Probably a grammar check and syntax review would have helped. But to each his own.
