President Obama says Elizabeth Warren and the vast majority of Democrats are "wrong" on TPP

On the other hand, the Republicans, the US Chamber of Commerce, the Heritage Foundation, the Banking Roundtable, ALEC, the Koch brothers, and Fox News are "right" on TPP.

Does that tell you anything?

This is classic "pig in a poke" and so blatant that it is a insult to whomever the message is directed toward.

outrage to help him out of a tough bind - and by that, I mean a situation that he has to diplomatically support, although it flies in the face of everything the leader represents. Because, Obama was a community activist once, and has to know the hardship that this will cause the average American. So, maybe it's up to us to provide the out that may be needed in this case?
