No, it doesn’t ‘insert Congress into the deal’ it is a sham since it makes approval of the TPP a slam dunk.

You follow the constitution and fix the problem within the confines of the constitution.

When has any large problem been truly "fixed" as it should be over the past few decades? Every big government boondoggle has done nothing but grow in size, bringing us to the point we are at now. So yes, we do need to be wary of the big government types in both parties that think the world revolves around Washington, D.C., and we especially need to be wary of an openly lawless president who couldn't give a fig about the fate of this country.

The problem is we’re not “confused”, “misled” or otherwise not understanding. TPA and TPP are joined at the hip. Ted Cruz can spin it all he wants, these bills are nothing more than more daggers shoved into the ribs of the middle class.

I wouldn’t give dear leader fast track authority to run an ice cream truck, yet against all logic and common sense, Ted Cruz thinks that its a great idea to give dear leader a blank check on trade, immigration and the UN treaty on small arms.

Ted Cruz is just another conservative hustler with a really good conservative schtick.

No offense to you personally of course, but I think you’re dead wrong on this. And yes, time will tell.

Blessings to you as well.

The worse thing in my mind is that Rand Paul could reap a political whirlwind for being the only GOP candidate to actually vote no on this thing. I can’t stand the guy, but my gut tells me he’ll benefit from Cruz, Walker, and Rubio supporting this disaster of a trade agreement. Just my hunchm

He was one of the ones who was on all of the major shows saying how bad the legislation was. If it was so bad, why vote this way?

Hmmmmm.....who’d a thunk so many FReepers could be so bad wrong and would be supporting the Kenyan born muslim Hussein and another part to/of his America destroying agenda? NOTHING Barry does is America’s best interests. EVERYTHING he does is designed to further along our Country’s demise. And our own folks are supporting him on this ‘trade’ thing!!! Barry wants this TPP/TPA/TISA in very, very, very bad. Why? Because he knows damn well how horrific it is going to be for America down the line. If one support it....then they are supporting Barry and his globalist puppet master’s NWO agenda. Simple as that.

And now Cruz slapped down Sessions’ effort to limit immigration so US citizens can find work.

Cruz favors flooding this nation with cheap workers.

Thanks for the heads-up. Nice deconstruction.

The trade deal giveaway is a huge scam...best examined against the backdrop of Obama's two tax-exempt foundations (that we know of).

THE FACTS ARE THESE Obama's priming the pump for donations to his two Foundations. All of it---TPA and TPP--Obama's immigration suck-ups---his non- action WRT ISIS, IRAN---are best understood against the backdrop of Obama's future plans as an ex-president----more specifically, his two Foundations (two that we know of).

The aforementioned entities control billions of dollars---and Obama is lying-in-wait for his share.

Just the other day--Obama proudly bragged that “today, once again, the US is the most respected country on earth.”

So it doesn’t matter Putin continues his invasion of Ukraine....

Or that China knows it can continue grabbing key sea areas, building vast artificial islands on which to plant its flag (and weapons). Or that Bashar al-Assad is back to using chemical weapons, because Obama won't enforce his own “red line.”

As for Iran: It’s already breaking the “interim” US nuclear deal by building enriched-uranium stockpiles far larger than it promised. Iraq? In the same town-hall, Obama talks of how “we were able to end two wars."

=========================================

Obama learned from the Clintons how to get a big payday for his two foundations: look on w/ approval even if countries invade and depopulate.....and never e-v-e-r utter a discouraging word e-v-e-r.

Maybe even shake hands w/ foreign tyrants to get mining permits and million dollar honorariums as Clinton did in Kazakhstan.

======================================

How well Obama learned at the knee of Hillary when she was Obama's Secy of State. At that time the "State Dept Mission Statement" mentioned that it would "create a more secure, democratic, and prosperous world for the benefit of the American people and the international community."

(Well, profitable for the Clinton Foundation, anyway.)

Now it looks like that "prosperous world" is gonna happen, thanks to Obama's two foundations (/snix).

To: All
THE OBAMAS GET READY FOR THE BIG FOUNDATION PAYDAY Obama isnt even out of office yet---and already has two foundations (that we know of).

(1) "The Obama Foundation" announced the location of its library in Chicago.....revving up the next ex-president's money machine.

(2) The second Obama foundation----The Barack H. Obama Foundation (BHOF)---(named after their dad), was fast-tracked by Lois Lerner for IRS tax-exempt status....for Malik Obama, Barack's half brother.

The BHOF is based at a Virginia UPS store, according to its website. The organization’s IRS filings list another Virginia address that is actually a drug rehab center where the foundation does not appear ever to have been based.

As first reported by The Daily Caller, the foundation was speedily approved for IRS exemption by Lois Lerner, the self-same IRS senior official at the center of the targeting of conservative organizations that have waited over two years to receive tax exempt status. The IRS thoughtfully gave Obama Foundation retroactive fund-raising status.......which it stupidly never applied for.

The tax-exempt Barack H. Obama Foundation is run by Abon’go “Roy” Malik Obama, the half-brother of Barack Obama.

The foundation’s mission statement is “to provide people everywhere with resources to uplift their welfare and living standards in memory of dad---Barack H. Obama: in the region of his birth, Kenya, and beyond.” Its guiding principle is “the inherent belief that no one can truly enjoy the riches he has reaped if his neighbor suffers....."We seek to elevate the human condition so that everyone can live in dignity and truly enjoy having one another as neighbors.”

(waiting for hysterical laughter to die down)

Despite raising more than $250,000, the alleged charity doesn’t seem to have done much. Its website claims the organization has built a madrassa and was building an imam’s house as well as some “proposed latrines,” but there is no other evidence that the nonprofit was working to “mitigate social-shortcomings in areas of education and literacy, health and well-being, poverty, and lack of community infrastructure in such basic needs such as water, electricity, shelter and sustenance,” as the site says.

Alton Ray Baysden, a former Dept of State employee, allegedly a registered Republican, who helped start the Barack H Obama foundation, declined to comment before seeing copies of a reporter’s passport and govt ID, along with a description of the article’s “motivation” and “slant.”

Repeated reporters' phone calls went to the organization’s voicemail and were not returned.

Malik spends most of his time in Kenya with his 12 wives while Obama finances his half brother, Malik, a major fundraiser for the Muslim Bortherhood.

==================================================

GOVERTNMENT FRAUD AT ITS FINEST--deposited in numbered accounts in offshore banks?

Obama's federal outlays (that we know of).:

<><> $2 billion funding to Malik's organization---the Muslim Brotherhood,

<><> $50 million to Malik/Barack's tax-exempt foundation in the form of a grant to Kenya.

<><> While the Muslim Brotherhood was in charge in Egypt, Obama (and Hillary) showered them w/ praise.....and billions of US dollars in aid, arms, tanks and planes.

<><> Obama gave $90 million US tax dollars to wealthy oil-rich African countries.

Sorry gang, but both Cruz and Walker lost my vote on this of legislation. Now there is no one to vote for in the upcoming election because both men just showed that they are incapable of making sound judgment.

Nothing that Cruz says after this can be believed. He is lost and completely discredited. Time to move on to the next candidate since we have eliminated this liar.

Ditto.

Some of those with a agenda want Rand Paul as nominee so we will be forced to accept queers, black criminal amnesty, making American’s military weaker than levels even that of Obama, hatred of Israel, free collage tuition tax write offs, and the list goes on.

Rand Paul supports the embrace of queers into the GOP.

Rand Paul supports free collage tuition with tax write offs and stick it to older working Americans.

Rand Paul supports black criminal amnesty.

Rand Paul supports reducing our military spending at dangerous levels.
