    Who 'Lack Knowledge' About Negotiations

    from the well,-that-would-appear-to-be-your-own-fault dept

    It's become fairly clear that the TPP agreement is in trouble these days (for a variety of reasons). And it appears that President Obama is losing his cool concerning the agreement and its critics. In a press conference with Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak, President Obama lashed out at TPP critics, calling them "conspiracy theorists" whose criticism "reflects lack of knowledge of what is going on in the negotiations." Oh really?

    Looks like the democrats are having to resort to the neocon's old ploys more and more these days and from the looks of it the neocons don't like having their own tactics used against them.

    Here's a couple crying foul already . . . http://www.baptistboard.com/showthread.php?t=93277

    I guess maybe they thought they had exclusive rights to this tactic or something.

    It would seem the two parties are sharing more similarities with each passing day.

    There's not one. It's just the rant of a CT feeling persecuted by all sides.

    Standing alone against the uneducated masses is how they see themselves.

    Paranoid is the word.

    NAFTA, GATT and off shoring all our jobs is good for the country too. Oh wait they probably don't exist either. Four or five hypocrites make a majority.
