So not only will the ObamaTrade the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) trade bill give Obama more power to screw the American worker, but it will also act as an a propaganda tool for his global warming BS too. And the vast majority in Congress support this steaming pile of crap. Weeper of the House Boehner is hoping for a vote on ObamaTrade this coming Friday.

| ObamaTrade will help advance his climate change agenda |
In an interview with American Public Media’s Marketplace, President Obama says fast-tracking the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) trade bill would help him advance his climate change agenda, which he said is “one of my highest priorities.”
During the interview with host Kai Ryssdal of Marketplace, Obama said, “If we want to solve something like climate change, which is one of my highest priorities, then I’ve got to be able to get into places like Malaysia, and say to them, this is in your interest.”
“What leverage do I have to get them to stop deforestation?” he asked. “Well part of the leverage is, if I’m in a trade relationship with them, that allows me to raise standards, now they have to start thinking about how quick they’re chopping down their forests and what kinds of standards they need to apply to environmental conservation.”
“So, we have to engage, not withdraw,” the president stated.
