DFA: Ask the White House to oppose a lame-duck TPP vote

[Egnever]

11. Yes as a matter of fact I have

and the fact that you claim reading "leaked" chapters when the whole text is available for anyone to look at https://ustr.gov/trade-agreements/free-trade-agreements/trans-pacific-partnership/tpp-full-text

Leads me to believe either you are relying on propaganda or are intentionally misleading people to think the text is not available.


It has been freely available for months now. The whole it's secret oh noes nonsense was just that nonsense. The funny thing is most of the people salivating over supposed leaked snippets fell oddly silent once the actual text was released.

And no politics is not good enough when we are talking about a trade agreement of this scale. Politics is good enough is what gave us Many Dems Iraq war vote. Politics is often not nearly a good enough reason for any legislation.

Since you know exactly why you oppose it maybe you can lay it out. I am open to valid criticism but Conyers piece you linked was full of nonsense that reads like he never even looked at the agreement.
