Fox, Drudge or WND could not have done better in the ongoing anti-Obama TPP propaganda, or the lame name-calling. Fred Sanders Jun 2015 #13

Yep, it is DU at it's most pathetic. It is nothing short of embarrassing. tridim Jun 2015 #15

"Embarrassing" takes a back seat to getting some Recs. based on name calling. Fred Sanders Jun 2015 #25

Because Obama bashing. tridim Jun 2015 #38

Challenging Obama on his support for the TPP is not bashing but being a good Democrat. rhett o rick Jun 2015 #68

I see no reason not to bash sulphurdunn Jun 2015 #86

So we should just let a president do whatever s/he wants as long as they have a D? cui bono Jun 2015 #99

Ummm, they are promoting this monstrosity as are all the republican establishment in washington. Dragonfli Jun 2015 #17

Of course we are pro-labor; kindly look at the pro-labor Obama E.O.'s lately, and the newly muscular NLRB. Fred Sanders Jun 2015 #21

Yes indeed a very large portion of people have now given up trying to find work, I guess that is Dragonfli Jun 2015 #95

Actually, Fox is a huge TPP cheerleader....... marmar Jun 2015 #22

I detest Fox as much as the next guy, but you exaggerate the meaning of Fox's position. Fred Sanders Jun 2015 #23

Come on, look at the President's chief allies on this issue..... marmar Jun 2015 #26

The Presidents chief allies are other Democrats.... Fred Sanders Jun 2015 #28

JC. Supporting free trade is not the same as supporting the TPA/TPP. Quit making shit up. n/t Dawgs Jun 2015 #32

Please direct all "making shit up" arguments to The New Republic. Fred Sanders Jun 2015 #34

Why? You did it here. Dawgs Jun 2015 #42

Do you trust Obama's judgement? Because I sure as hell don't. Nor do I trust the judgement of Erose999 Jun 2015 #33

Yes, I do trust Obama's judgment...on this also because his judgment has been generally most excellent. Fred Sanders Jun 2015 #36

The fact that you even asked that question is so telling. tridim Jun 2015 #39

so the person you responded to G_j Jun 2015 #43

Why don't you go bash Democrats somewhere else? Jakes Progress Jun 2015 #88
