That is a strange comment. One, I am surprised Sen Warren would make. The deal is in negotiations and ALL of our elected Representatives have access to the specifics of the plans. I would have suspected Ms Warren would know how our form of Representative Govt works.
I think she knows better than most city-data posters.
Why is this such a priority right now? Why does it need to be "fast tracked"?
Why would no provisions or amendments be allowed?
Why was it written by Corporations with allegiance to no country on the planet?

How am I being dishonest? the argument put forth is that being anti trade deals were part of president Obama's set of ideals.
I have never heard him claim to be against all free trade, in fact this isnt even the first free trade agreement the President has negotiated. there for you were wrong.
So far, it seems the only one being dishonest here is you.

No it isn't and you know it.

Which has nothing to do with whether or not the President supports the idea of free trade, nor does you saying that back up your claims that this FTA is less transparent than previous ones.

You knew very well I was talking about his statements about how his will be the most transparent administration in history. You are only making yourself look silly. You know the point here.

It makes no difference if other ones were not transparent. What is important is this one isn't.

you did not mention transparency anywhere in that discuss until after the fact. im not a mind reader so no, i didnt know you meant that.
i can only go by what you typed, not what is in your mind.

false premise. by your own words, he said most transparent in history . "Most", is a comparative word. So you are comparing his Presidency and transparency to past ones. So it does matter.

That is what Warren is complaining about. That is what the thread is about.
"The government doesn’t want you to read this massive new trade agreement. It’s top secret," Warren said in a statement on her website.
