Obama: Elizabeth Warren Is Simply Wrong On TPP

[freshwest]

71. But Congress will know when they vote. And fast track doesn't meant they must approve it.

Fast track only means no added amendments made by the Senate, IOW, changes to the written agreement the signatories didn't agree to, so this is a basic logic fail.

Boo fucking hoo, they can't amend the words of others, but they can say No if they want. Get out the fire extinguishera and put the fire out, burnt hair stinks.

The reason for no amendments or fast tracking is the other nations involved are not in the Senate, HELLO? They'd have no say to what could disadvantage them for years, how is that an honest deal for them?

This is media brainwashing just like Iran negotiations were. Because... Obama can't be trusted, sn't smart enough, is a traitor and he's not a real American! Give it a rest!

The completed treaty that the Senate has the last word on would be their last chance for nations to have input, you can't change what they agreed to without starting again.

The Senate can vote the treaty up or down. Most of the uproar is ignorance of basic civics.

Would any of us sign onto something that will impact us for years and have a third party jump in after we've signed unto and change the rules?

Hell no. This is what the tempest in the fast track TPP Teapot is.

Everytime I read this dreckt, the shrieks of brain cells committing suicide in despair at this fatal lack of comprehension, steeped in Bircher compost tea, are so loud, I can barely hear my inner voice.

Oh, and what you said on it being classified is right. If it's spewed all over the place, different nations or organizations will pay off others to make it favor them. Does the term industrial espionage ring a bell with anyone?

Thanks Nance. I'd appreciate your opinion on my comment, or whatever you may add to it or detract from it.
