Scott Walker, champion of the American worker joins the betrayal. He adds a new twist. Eroding our sovereignity will give us a 'competitive advantage'.
And allow a Republic Congress to review Obama's action. WOW. I feel so much better about ObamaTrade.
Scott Walker Pushes Obamatrade On Eve Of Vote by Matthew Boyle11 Jun 2015Washington, DC1498
Despite staying largely silent on the issue—he’s quietly supported it for weeks, but hasn’t said anything at all in quite a long time—Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker crossed most conservatives by coming out in support of Obamatrade on Thursday evening in an interview with Bloomberg’s Mark Halperin.
Walker, Bloomberg’s Halperin and John McCormick wrote, “expressed agreement with President Barack Obama on the pressing issue of fast-track trade legislation.”
“Walker said he supports giving Obama the authority to submit trade agreements to Congress for an expedited, up-or-down vote without amendments,” they wrote, before quoting Walker himself.
“If we don’t go down this path, we’re going to be at a competitive disadvantage, and so I think it just makes sense,” Walker said.
“At the same time, like many Republicans who support granting the trade authority recent past presidents have had, Walker said the deal would allow the Republican-controlled Congress to review Obama’s actions,” the Bloomberg reporters wrote.
"WHY give away congressional authority, especially to Dear Leader? WHY" That and why the secrecy? How can these people approve of something they aren't even allowed to read?
I smell a rat and sunlight is the best disinfectant.

Quote: truthkeeper wrote in post #2Totally disturbing. He WAS the only candidate sounding halfway sane on immigration, at least recently. Now this.
WHY give away congressional authority, especially to Dear Leader? WHY ram through another unread monstrosity?
"Something wicked..."
"By the pricking of my thumbs, something wicked this way comes. Then toll the bells both loud and deep, God is not dead, nor doth he sleep. The wrong will fail, the right prevail, With peace on Earth, good will toward men"
"Ill winds mark its fearsome flight, and autumn branches creak with fright. The landscape turns to ashen crumbs, when something wicked this way comes.
Crystal water turns to dark, where e'er its presence leaves its mark, and boiling currents pound like drums, when something wicked this way comes.
A presence dark invades the fair, and gives the horses ample scare, for chaos reigns and panic numbs, when something wicked this way comes."
