(11,230 posts)Republicans really support the TPP. Since when should Democrats be scolded because they don`t support Boehner, Mitch and their following? I`m pretty certain what most Democrats here at DU would be saying if it was George W. Bush trying to get the TPP passed.... and what we would be saying about the president trying to push it.
I`m not into the used car salesman talk, but I certainly believe a hell of a lot of support and good will were squandered after President Obama was elected. Why he turned to his "friends across the aisle" instead of the supporters whose votes gave him the presidency, I`ll never know. Perhaps one answer lies with Inauguration Day, January 20th 2009, when Obama chose Pastor Rick Warren to give the Invocation Prayer. Pastor Rick Warren, of all people. Think about that.
