(135,425 posts)should be given to the Hair-on-Fire/Sky-is-Falling pronouncements in the OP. And I wasn't putting words in your mouth. I was simply filling in the information that you neglected to put forward while you attempted to create an atmosphere of high drama and emergency and Good Guys v. Bad Guys when, in actual fact, the good guys aren't necessarily all good and the bad guys aren't necessarily all bad...and nothing is going to happen on this issue until after November, certainly, and maybe not even next year, or the year after.
Your hero Sen. Wyden is, as I pointed out in this thread, "fighting for the TPP" with his "Smart Track" bait and switch and his conciliatory speeches to fat cat lobbying groups. So, is he an "Enemy of the 99%?" Inquiring minds want to know!
This is not a done deal, yet you're acting like King Obama has issued a decree and there's nothing for us serfs to do but obey. You're painting a typically divisive and cartoonish landscape--and it's obvious.
