1. That cartoon was cute ...

until it got to the corporate lobbyist part ... but then I got it ... the cartoonist was riffing on the pants on fire theme!

You know ... put out true statements, toss in a false statement; while, poking fun at someone for making a false statement!

Nicely done, Crawford.

5. Must not have noticed

that lobbyists wrote most of the DAMNED TPP.

7. Oh, I get it ... more pants on fire riffing. Right? n/t

3. Trade agreements have always worked this way, it is actually law. How terrible to mention , I know.

Because having to be in Washington to read the entire final draft TPP will take politicians off the fundraising trail has to be deflected to some other reason, I get it.

And Obama will never lose his cool, it is not in his nature.

I get it how some rejoice when Obama appears annoyed at all the clear insanity and then folks wildly trumpet justified annoyance and frustration as "anger".

Obama even had to hire an Anger Surrogate last night!

6. Probably the document is encrypted as well.

And you cannot have the key. It does not say anywhere it isn't, right?

8. The TPP

and the access granted to the folks it will MOST impact is the epitome of DC "Transparency". It would be easier to read and analyze with two bricks for reading glasses than it is in that guarded situation. Hell, the Secret Service could take lessons from the way it's protected from the public!
