Elizabeth Warren Fires Back at Obama:

[sabrina 1]

38. What? Have you been following this at all? It doesn't like it from your comment.

For years, members of the Trade Commission have been asking to be allowed (imagine that, our elected officials were not 'allowed' to see what legislation Globe Corps were writing for us in secret) to see what was being drafted as as a Trade Agreement for the people of this country.

For years, they were denied that RIGHT. Then, under intense public pressure from the people AND from every worthwhile organization that represents, LABOR, the Environment, Internet Freedom (yes we know now this bill will have the ability to destroy Net Neutrality) in 2013 to try to pacify the growing opponents, not just in this country, but in all the others countries affected by their secret concoction, Congress was allowed a peek at a small part of the draft.

Sherrod Brown spent a year since then, trying to get a response from the administration as to why his staff has been restricted from viewing that text.

Those who have seen it, have stated 'IF THE PUBLIC KNEW WHAT WAS IN IT THEY WOULD OPPOSE IT'.

And now the public knows a little MORE of what's in it, thanks to Leaks. And those who stated they would oppose it, were absolutely right.

IF Warren were the only one demanding TRANSPARENCY on this now very, very controversial bill, maybe it could be said she is just overly concerned.

But she is joined by almost all of our most respected Democrats, Environmental Groups, Unions, Civil Liberties orgs etc ALL opposed to this 'deal' most of which is STILL SECRET.

And what they are trying to do now is to get Congress to BLINDLY FAST TRACK, essentially giving up their right to know what is in it and leaving that to the Executive Branch.

Where did you stand when Bush tried to Fast Track his Trade Bill in 2007 btw?
