MannyGoldstein's JournalEnough! Can we stop the divisive anti-TPP @#$%-stirring?
Look people, I'm getting tired of the LIES about the Trans-Pacific Partnership, slung by the moonbat followers of a wild-haired Socialist and his soul mate, that difficult woman from Massachusetts.
Let's look at some of the BS accusations, vs. the REAL truth.
Accusation: the TPP is secret.
Fact: Literally hundreds of corporate representatives and lobbyists have instant access to the latest negotiations, updated on a daily basis. DAILY UPDATES!!! What could be more transparent? Would HOURLY updates make these moonbats happy? Incredible! Members of Congress can see documents too, if they show up in person so an educated person can walk them through all the big words. And if there are no scheduling problems. Look, the Office of the rich Wall Street banker in charge of cutting deals US Trade Representative is busy, they don't always have time to meet.
Accusation: The TPP will only benefit a few Americans.
Fact: Literally hundreds of thousands of Americans are in the top 0.1%. Hundreds of thousands! That's a lot of people!
Accusation: The TPP will send a ton of American jobs to other countries.
Fact: It's the Trans-Pacific Partnership. Partnership Do you moonbats even know what the word partnership means? It doesn't mean one-sided.
Accusation: The TPP will cripple US sovereignty, giving corporations rights currently reserved for our elected representatives.
Fact: In case you haven't noticed, the Era of Big Government is over. Government sucks, corporations are much better. As President Obama explained it perfectly, "UPS and FedEx are doing just fine. ... It's the Post Office that's always having problems". And don't give me any of that nonsense about USPS having to pre-fund 75 years of pensions in advance, corporations could do that too if they didn't need to pay competitive salaries to their CEOs. And if they didn't need to actually deliver anything their customers paid them for.
Hopefully my learned-yet-concise prose has cut through the Far-Left Flatus of Falsification that has wafted across our exceptional country. Now that you little people know the TRUE truth, you can calmly return to eking out your meager existences. And maybe learn a few words of Vietnamese, like this:
"Tôi tự hào để đào tạo bạn để mất công việc của tôi, tôi được thăng lên một cái gì đó gọi là Soylent Green."
(Note: if you look that up using Google translate, it shows a translation that's totally wrong, don't believe a word of it. Damned Left-wing disruptors and their Google-bombing and tricky tech stuff.)

Who's telling the truth: Sanders/Warren, or Obama/Third Way/most Republicans*?
Sanders and Warren say the TPP would be a disaster. The other folks say it's a big win.
Who do you believe?
*by "Republicans", I mean elected Republicans. Even rank-and-file Republicans have the good sense to know that yet another "free" trade agreement will enrich the few and @#$& the many.
