50 GOP no votes, which was an accomplishment considering the heavy handed tactics of late by Boner and his toadies.

But 28 Dems voted FOR it, and that is what tipped the scales.

Rats screw the country again.

Bare majority. They’re going to have to work VERY hard at threats and bribery to get the subsequent TPP through.

Thanks to all the GOP enablers here and across the country.

The only good that comes from this is that these RINOs and fake conservatives
that voted twice, not once for this nonsense will have no excuses for
this vote. No way out.

So now we’re faced with the TPP deal that has been secret. All those people that said don’t worry ... your time is here.

How about the 190 Republicans who voted FOR it?

Didn’t they screw the country?

“But 28 Dems voted FOR it, and that is what tipped the scales.”

You gotta be kidding! The votes to push it over the top came from the RINOs who voted for it! Get serious, the RATS are not the problem here the RINOs are!

And just think, we wanted Ryan to be vice president.

Elect us and we’ll repeal obamacare.

If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor.

Both lies from both sides and Americans pay for it.

Obama gets the power, the ‘pub sellouts get cheap labor. A marriage made, not in heaven.

Don’t forget to give the GOP Establishment Vermin their due credit for this.

They have consistently pissed on our shoes and told us that it’s raining ever since we were stupid enough to give them control of Congress this past November.

The money quote from Paul Ryan comes at the end of the article:

"And boy, do we need credibility right now."

Only 50 GOP no votes.

And you think the rats screwed the country?

It was the the GOP that just screwed American Workers.

Didn’t they screw the country?Without a doubt, they did.

But the Dems were the ones against the TPA, and only a small group of GOP were against it.

Had the Dems voted in a block, as they almost always do, this would not have passed.

50 GOP no votes was very high at this time, but it was not enough. They risked much, and still lost.

But I am glad they sent a message. That took political courage.
