Obama promised us the “most transparent administration in history”. He delivered. No matter what you look for, you won’t see a thing.

If he has to keep it secret it means it's not good for America.

Hurry up and “pass it so we can see what was in it”.

Not to worry - Elizabeth Warren will simply hold a powwow and consult a tribal shaman and all will be well.

Both parties have abandoned the American worker. TPA is a payoff to their corporate paymasters. The Dems are outsmarting the Reps. They also want the bill, but they are pretending to be supporting American workers and jobs. The Reps are positioning themselves as the defenders of the corporate elites. They may raise money, but they will lose voters. It is a political loser.

I distrust any deal made in secret.

Obama would not fight for any trade deal unless it could precipitate the collapse of our economy.

Republicans know they are an endangered species. They are grabbing the cash as fast as they can, while they can still get elected to something.

I know the Dems don’t want it, labor and unions oppose it...but why is the GOP siding with Obama to give him what he wants.

That is certainly the $1000 question.

I hated citing this source, but the article’s author had 1st-hand information I’ve not read anywhere prior...as filtered as it is by the ‘secrecy’.

I do too but we have to make it through the next 19 months with as little damage done as possible. Only a handful of senators and house members are really conservatives and will fight for us until then.

"but why is the GOP siding with Obama to give him what he wants."

So that the Republicans can get something they want like open borders or extensions and bailouts to Obamacare or ...

Oh wait! Those are things Obama wants anyway.

They are an endangered species, because they flooded America with illegals, and otherwise financially raped the USA. Just like Dems.

This, right here, is what is wrong with the Obama administration. David Freddoso called it.

Of course. Republicans have an active hand in their own demise, but their money masters demanded it. Now it’s time to stuff the trunk full of cash before they no longer have access to the halls of corruption.

Obama kept it secret with the direct help and collaboration of Mitch McConnell and the GOPe.
