29. Can you provide details on what the "TPP" actually is?

See .. you started way back when, by saying Obama was going to GUT and SLASH social security.

It never happened.

Now, you use "TPP" as a catch all.

But that, like your "other free rade anti-personnel bombs" reference, is detail free.

It is just more nonspecific outrage. The kind of outrage that requires no real details.

Which is the best kind of outrage ... even if nothing ever happens ... the outrage came to be and served its purpose.

You avoid details and specific predictions because doing so allows the outrage to exists no matter what happens.

When the Dems held both houses under Obama for a brief period, they still didn't get very much done, hughee99 Oct 2014 #6

It was unimpressive when they had both houses. They sat there and argued like a bunch of children! RKP5637 Oct 2014 #26
