Almost 3 years they've been in the outbox on obama's desk, gathering dust, but he has the gall to claim it is the GOP holding them up?

One would think the media would call him on this....but as in most of his lies told daily, they give him a pass.

Boy, seems to come down to the unions on every issue, doesn't it? He's got his head so far up their derriere, he can tickle their tonsils.

When will this president put the country first, the American people first, jobs first, instead of payback to the greedy, destructive unions?

Mostly because he can't find anyone in his administration that understands them.

Your actually bytching about a trade agreement that does NOTHING for the U.S? Are you serious? Did you really research this one or did you just read the headlines that it was just sitting on Obama's desk?


This is how we got stuck with NAFTA. It was suppose to create American jobs, but it didn't
