QUOTE Give me a break. Here's just a couple articles from mainstream recently. Unfortunately there's not much talk about TPP other than alternative news from the last few years, but there are a few. Just freaking look for yourself LIbERal...Or yeah, keep on trusting these lying butt heads. Some in Congress have been complaining for a couple of years, but they don't get much air time. QUOTE Around 600 corporations with stakes in the talks have seen draft text, as have a few labor unions. Congress and the public have not, except for the few chapters released by Wikileaks online last year. ]http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs...] QUOTE This treaty has long been shrouded in unprecedented secrecy. Congressional staff, press and general public weren’t allowed to read it; in many cases, even members of Congress were kept in the dark. Meanwhile, special interests were given full access. Now we know why: The White House didn’t want the public to know what was being negotiated in their name. http://www.slate.com/blogs...ty.htmlYou ever get tired of being a stooge?

QUOTE As the Chairman of the Senate Finance Committee’s Subcommittee on International Trade, Customs, and Global Competitiveness, my office is responsible for conducting oversight over the USTR and trade negotiations. To do that, I asked that my staff obtain the proper security credentials to view the information that USTR keeps confidential and secret. This is material that fully describes what the USTR is seeking in the TPP talks on behalf of the American people and on behalf of Congress. More than two months after receiving the proper security credentials, my staff is still barred from viewing the details of the proposals that USTR is advancing. The majority of Congress is being kept in the dark as to the substance of the TPP negotiations, while representatives of U.S. corporations – like Halliburton, Chevron, PHRMA, Comcast, and the Motion Picture Association of America – are being consulted and made privy to details of the agreement. ]http://www.wyden.senate.gov/downloa...].
^ And it's his job to oversee these exact things he is being blocked from.
How stupid does one have to be to think Bundy said "Mexicans are better than "colored folk"?" When he actually said they have better family structure than most of us WHITE people?

Well if 150 dems don't want to fast track this or any future trade agreements then clearly the TPP is a bad thing.

QUOTE
When I go, went, go to Las Vegas, North Las Vegas; and I would see these little government houses, and in front of that government house the door was usually open and the older people and the kids…. and there was always at least a half a dozen people sitting on the porch. They didn’t have nothing to do. They didn’t have nothing for the kids to do. They didn’t have nothing for the young girls to do.
And because they were basically on government subsidy – so now what do they do? They abort their young children, they put their young men in jail, because they never, they never learned how to pick cotton. And I’ve often wondered are they were better off as slaves, picking cotton and having a family life and doing things? Or are they better off under government subsidy?
You know they didn’t get more freedom, uh they got less freedom – they got less family life, and their happiness -you could see it in their faces- they were not happy sitting on that concrete sidewalk. Down there they was probably growing their turnips – so that’s all government, that’s not freedom.
Now, let me talk about the Spanish people. You know I understand that they come over here against our constitution and cross our borders. But they’re here and they’re people – and I’ve worked side-by-side a lot of them.
Don’t tell me they don’t work, and don’t tell me they don’t pay taxes. And don’t tell me they don’t have better family structure than most of us white people. When you see those Mexican families, they’re together, they picnic together, they’re spending their time together, and I’ll tell you in my way of thinking they’re awful nice people.
Obviously he thinks a lot more of mexicans than blacks and it seems the big difference is the black folk are in the projects with no family structure cuz the babies were all aborted and the men folk are all in prison, but the Mexicans, they are okay by him because they have family picnics.
Have you considered my suggestion about seeing a mental health professional yet?

Wallstreet has no Party affiliation. They're happy to accept/take/steal money from anyone, whether thru direct investment, high speed computer transactions, sweatshops, blood capitalization, or thru the trillions handed them on a platter from ignorant working Joe's 401k plan. Evil void of color, affiliation, and conscience. Evil refined to a pure darkness.

QUOTE So what you're saying is that Clinton sold out, compromised his princles at the expense of the American people, your hero. You’re in denial SB what I’m saying is the Republican’s used every dirty trick in the book for their greedy friends on Wall Street they fleeced the American people! The Republican's have always been about deregulation you really have to be an ideologue not to admit in most cases these laws are in place for good reason! So instead of Clinton saving his own ass at the expense of the American people, he was tricked by those rascally republicans? Bush loaded the gun for NAFTA, Clinton pulled the trigger. You do realize there is essentially no difference between Republicans and Democrats right? Personally I like world trade, you scream that it sends jobs elsewhere but other jobs are created to fill the vaccume. Why are you bitchin'? Sounds like you have a nice public sector job, low stress, no risk, guaranteed pay.

Obviously you could never see how editing that tape and taking his words out of context changed the point he was trying to make completely. He definitely is not a public speaker, and definitely used some poor choice of words, but omitting how he blames government policies for how bad too many black people do have it, put a completely different spin on it. The way they edited and spun their version was entirely out of whack from what he truly said. - of course YOU wouldn't have a problem with that tactic. SB, if the TPP is such a great thing then why can't our representatives be allowed to know what exactly it involves? Or we the people? That's not edited, the NY Times reporter only reported on the racial remarks. I don't think anyone cares what else he said during his daily 1hr sermon. Do you honestly think it changes what he said about blacks being better off under slavery because he made an anti-government statement before or after he said those things?
The only people supporting this racist piece of crap at this point is other disgusting racists.
Stay classy!
