Has the world completely turned upside down? Has Hell frozen over? Well today it has. Myself and most Conservatives in this country were actually routing for Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats. It sounds odd to write and even more to acknowledge.
However, as the Trade Promotion Authority (TPA) was indirectly voted down in the House, both Conservatives and Democrats rejoice at the overwhelming win over Obama and the RINOs in Congress. Though the TPA was essentially passed, it cannot return to Obama for finalization because a different component known as the was not also passed by the House—essentially stopping the Bill along with its “fast track” from going to Obama for final authorization.
If TPA were passed, it would have expanded presidential powers in numerous ways unintended by the Founding Fathers of this country. Most notably, Obama would be able to negotiate international trade deals that Congress would be unable to amend, change or even discuss before being fast tracked into a single Yes/No vote. Plus, as Senator Sessions warned, Obama could potentially implement the agreements and deals made by this Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) and Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) through executive action and bypass Congress all together. So what would happen then? Guess what, other countries in this union could essentially rewrite United States Law without Congressional approval. Your rights as an American will essentially be handed over to the global elite—an elite that does not have American interest in hand; an elite who care for their own financial prosperity; an elite with no cares for the general masses. (All of a sudden it makes all those conspiracy theories regarding the Bilderberg Group, the Bohemian Grove, and the Illuminati seem all to tangible)
If the TPA was passed it would also usher in other unwanted trade deals such as Trade in Services Agreement (TiSA). This agreement would restrain the United States ability to control its own immigration policy and deregulate the United States work visa program.
What is most concerning is that we don’t even know what’s in the TPA. Just like Obamacare, it was fashioned behind closed doors without public scrutiny. There is probably much, much more in it and other trade agreements Obama is negotiating that we don’t even know.
So now it becomes clear why Obama adamantly wants to sign TPA into law and came to Capitol Hill to lobby for its passage. With the goal of fundamentally changing America, he could essentially have carte blanche to do whatever he wants. Through executive order and fast track, the USA as we know it would cease to exit! God help our country!
As a registered Republican, I have come to the conclusion that my vote does not seem to count. In fact, it almost appears that no matter who I vote into office, nothing changes. Thought this statement may seem facetious, there remains much truth within it.
Unfortunately, the Republican establishment has usurped both the political party and the will of the people. John Boehner, Karl Rove, and Mitch McConnell have become drunk on their power and see fit to run the entire party as they please. No longer will they let the elected representative pursue the agenda to which they were voted into office. Instead, they are forced to comply with the political party’s agenda mandated by these tyrants who run the party. It’s their way or the highway. Time and time again, I have witnessed Republicans capitulate to their will and vote in accordance with their mandates. Just look at how the establishment has treated the Tea Party and mocked their attempts to make targeted political changes. Remember what happened when they attempted to shut down the government to make a statement about Obamacare? Also, remember all those so-called Republicans who voted not to repeal it?
Now, the House Republican establishment wants to change the rules so that any member who votes against the party’s nominee as speaker will be stripped of all their power. This is absurd? How will any meaningful change ever take place in the party? How will new ideas come to fruition?
The bottom line is that the leaders of the Republican Party seem to have lost touch with the American people. No matter who they put up for president, they lose, and no matter who such people as Rove and McConnell support (such as in Florida, Hawaii, Massachusetts, Montana, New Mexico, and Wisconsin in 2012) all get beat by a large margin.
The John Boehners, Karl Roves, Mitch McConnell, and John McCains of the party are leading the country into disaster. The only thing they can accomplish is to solidify and grow their own power. They have perverted the party and are destroying the country in the process. As our country continues to implode, her epitaph will surely bear their names.
