Obama Says Congress Can Approve Trade Deals ‘Right Now,’ But Hasn’t Sent Them to Hill

Wondered when someone in the mainstream media would get around to reporting that little detail. It’s hard to get a trade bill approved when it has not been submitted for approval. Submit them and make the case for them. And stop using them as a stick to beat your opponents with. The executive branch can’t pin all the problems on the legislative branch (and vice versa, to be sure).

Obama dines with MSNBComcast CEO
“now here’s what I want you to do”???????

There is no evidence that any of these trade agreements has ever created a single job. Why continue a policy that has been shown to be a failure?
Who really benefits?

OBAMA LIES…..THE MIDDLE CLASS DIES

You people are ridiculous and absolutely nausiating! Where were you with your quips and disrespect when Bush was bankrupting the country?? He left us in a huge hole when he left office. But, why would I expect bigots and hatemongers to be reasonable or to accept the truth? My mistake!

And Obama has dug that puppy all the way to China.
Do you REALLY consider yourself reasonable? Accusing ANYONE who disagrees with Obama’s FAILED stimulus and jobs agenda while bankrupting the country bigots and hatemongers?

You only get one chance to waste 800 billion dollars.
Thank goodness the nation isn’t falling for Pres Barry’s stupidity anymore. We have all caught on to his sanctimonious posturing…..

The downgraded: ROFL, you mean the downgraded republican congress, Boehner “I got 98% of what I wanted” Too funny, we may get downgraded yet again if we don’t let the tax cuts expire. You folks are a bunch of liars and lie to get a crappy point across. Good keep it up, the republican congress has much lower approval ratings than president Obama, can’t wait till 2012, where are the jobs bills Mr. Boehner? Oh yeah continue with the tax cuts but sell it differently to the pathetically gullible.

If Congress approves those trade deals, they will KILL many, many more jobs in America!
Very BAD idea to make ANY more trade deals, since every one we have done, has cost this country more and more jobs!

Kimberly ,you may want to go to Yahoo news and read about the Social Security
Disability solvency. The tax cut, That 2%
the President wants to extend would be better served being directed into the Disability fund which i believe is separate from Social Security fund. After all the 2%
is money that was headed to Social security after all. Why not try and fix the problem
and if anything this is one area the whole country probably would live with a tax increase in as long as the government quits borrowing out of it.

The president wants to extend the payroll tax cut for 1 year, not indefinitely, if we allow it to expire, it will definitely reduce consumer spending and add to the 1 in 6 Americans who are food insecure (starving slowly). And don’t give me the bull crap that there are places to go for these people, they make too much for food stamps but their rent is too high, and the pantries are empty.

Barack maintains his allegiance to Nancy Pelosi and her social welfare policy. They will keep national unemployment high, if possible. His manipulation of political process could be mentioned in articles of impeachment for his removal from office.

There seems to be a little problem with many right-wingers here not reading the article they are commenting on.
Read the entire piece and you will understand that the legislation is being held up by Republicans who won’t agree to job-retraining for American workers who will lose their jobs.
As I said in my previous comment, I don’t want us signing any more trade deals, they have been harmful to our country by eliminating jobs here. We should be re-visiting the trade deals we have and correcting them to balance the trade deficits with countries like China.

The incompetence from this administration goes from the top to the bottom. Change the Dope 2012.

“Held up by Republicans who won’t agree to job-training.” Please point that specific passage out for us in the article presented above….Otherwise…..

Fact: Republican lawmakers supporting the cuts point to a January report the the Government Accountability Office that said little is known about the EFFECTIVENESS OF MOST FEDERAL JOB-TRAINING PROGRAMS, and that OVERLAP was extensive among the nine agencies administering …47…programs in the 2009 fiscal year…The report recommended efforts to CONSOLIDATE administrative functions. 04.2011.bloomberg…
I am presuming, don’t know for a fact, that the repubs are trying to play it fiscally smart so no future funds will be wasted in the Workforce Investment Act….Times are a changin like it or not…

kimberly “Republicans…they’re no good for American.” So what is your solution to deal with Republicans…You threw the statement out there…WHAT IS YOUR SOLUTION, because I am reading that as a threat……singling out one particular group as being bad for America is well…facism…..

Part of his jobs creation program….for China, Vietnam and anyplace else OTHER than America.

This article is satire,isn’t it? What kind of idiot would complain about holding up a bill he hasn’t even submitted?

“They won’t guarantee job re-training because they couldn’t care less about American workers.”

I live in a manufacturing area and many people I know who’ve lost their factory jobs here paid for their own job re-training in healthcare and information technology. They took action on their own and didn’t wait around for government help. Completely shocking, I know.

What Obama is going to do is make a bunch of proposals including more RECKLESS SPENDING and TAX INCREASES that he knows cannot pass the House. Then he will use that outcome to campaign indicating the Republicans are not working to fix the economy. This is DIRTY POLITICS of the highest order. Obama is putting his reelection AMBITION ahead of what is good for the country. Getting elected is more important t6han the SUFFERING of the American people to Obama. This COMPLETE DISREGARD for the welfare of the American people shows how urgent it is to vote Obama out of office.
Obama has made it clear he plans to spend $1 BILLION to try to get reelected. Spending $1 BILLION while the American people are suffering shows how out of touch Obama is. Having the taxpayers pay for what was just a campaign trip shows his disdain for the suffering of the American people.
The fact is the American economic problems will never be solved. All of the people living off the governments dime (welfare, food stamps, government employees, etc.) will continue to vote for the SPEND, PRINT, REGULATE, and TAX DEMOCRATS. The SPEND, PRINT, REGULATE, and TAX DEMOCRATS will continue to vote for the maintenance and extension of these programs so they can keep getting elected. It is a downward spiral with no viable solution unless all of us not living off the government’s dime vote 100% to stop the spending.
What needs to be done is to LOWER the debt ceiling.
Obama engaged in a reckless stimulus spending plan which only did more harm than good. That money was used to offset financial mismanagement at the state level. The projects that were funded by that money only gave a temporary increase in business to certain businesses but BUSINESS DID NOT CREATE PERMANENT JOBS TO MEET THAT DEMAND. Why? Because the stimulus was a temporary increase in spending and did not represent a long term increase in business. Businesses met that one time increase without hiring many people. The reckless stimulus spending did not create an investment opportunity for business. The only way we will see real, long term growth in jobs is if we eliminate the oppressive regulation of business (not Wall Street), change the tax structure so it is comparable to other countries, allow businesses the flexibility to make labor more efficient and STOP THE SPENDING.
Printing money did not work because interest rates were already as low as they could go. More dollars chasing the same amount of good and service means price increases not more jobs.
Our bloated and inefficient government is what is thwarting job and economic growth and the reckless stimulus spending and the reckless printing of money have not and will not do anything to fix it.
Obama is so h*ll bent of “taxing the rich” (whatever that means) because it is a campaign strategy not because it is good for the country. Obama is obsessed with getting reelected so he can ram more of his “hope and change” socialistic programs into law. Obama believes if he can force the Republicans to help pass a “taxing the rich” plan, the “rich” will not donate as much money. The Democrats with Obama in charge will continue to spend and spend. More and more social programs will mean more and more people with little incentive to work. His “taxing the rich” attitude will send more and more jobs out of the country.
Mr. Obama: stop campaigning, stop SPENDING and do what is good for the country.
We must continue to VOTE THEM OUT!!!

“Read the entire piece and you will understand that the legislation is being held up by Republicans who won’t agree to job-retraining for American workers who will lose their jobs. ”
Bull. That isn’t what Obama is saying when he is out on the campaign trail/bus tour/vacation stop.
And if these treaties are so good for the country, why would we need job training for possibly displaced workers? And why have the treaty’s approval linked in such a way, let them stand on their own and vote on them.
Obama is complaining that they aren’t doing their job when he hasn’t submitted the treaties for approval because the Congress won’t approve them the way Obama wants them to be. How is this Congress’s fault again?

At first I thought this was me till I saw the other Kimberly @ 1:01:08 PM. I’m not sure if that was supposed to be a lame parody of me since the far right wing idealogues that post here have a very caricaturized view of … well, everything… but it was, indeed, a lame or lousy parody or whatever it was supposed to be, imho. I rarely use exclamation points. Moreover, if I liked dictators and welfare so much, I’d be a Republican. Then I’d bow to corporate welfare, free market talking points, a literal interpretation of the Bible, the Koch brothers, and other disseminators of far right wing ideology, like a good little bird who’d memorized all the words (like Move to Venezuela! lol…. original? Nooooooo. What a shocker.)

Republican opposition to Obama’s proposal for a payroll tax cut extension constitutes support for a tax hike and yet nearly every Republican in Congress has signed Norquist’s and Americans for Tax Reform’s pledges not to raise taxes. Right wingers are big on pledges.
Should they stick to their pledge, or should they wrestle around with the their positions and pledges and lies?
In the not-so-distant past, Norquist himself has referred to the refusal to extend temporary tax cuts as a tax hike and a violation of the pledge. That was his clarification.
Your objection now means maybe, just maybe, all this cut and dried, black and white, b.s is , you know, b.s.– impractical, bad for the country.
I say Republicans are hypocrites and have painted themselves into a pickle BUT the far right extremists who support them no matter what will support whatever they come up with because… well, who really knows why. It makes no sense to the educated and reasonable.
Republicans have jumped the shark.
Now they support tax hikes. But that’s okay with you.

Speaking of demagogeury, your post has little else but just that. I guess it’s difficult for the hypocrit to see that.

We will once again rewrite the political script and gain our moral high ground. America will soar above the negativity. We WILL adopt policies that will strengthen our nation and restore the millions of jobs that were lost. We will thrive once again. America is the shining city on top the hill. We must know it and act like it. We have to and will act better than we ever have before

It’s interesting that Republicans– or at least one far right Republican– denigrates the president for celebrating the wealth that comes from having created two or three revolutionary products, which is what the President was celebrating — given how short sighted GOP commenters are on the science blog post (the one in which Huntsman points out how backwards most of the contenders in the GOP presidential field are, particularly when it comes to science). We were just having a discussion on innovation and pursuing the possibilities demand for alternate energy and energy efficiency tech provides.
The difference between the GOP and the president is that while he expects someone like Jobs to be wealthy, he doesn’t throw his hands up and say we shouldn’t provide incentives to keep manufacturing here or negotiate our trade agreements to include assistance for those who lose their jobs or claim the only way to create jobs is to leave corporations to their own devices–laissez faire; all hail the free unencumbered market– as they accumulate wealth and power here and move that wealth overseas.
Your post is missing any kind of smoking gun. It IS telling that you have a grudge against innovation.

Libertarians and conservatives commonly argue, in one form or another, that “sweatshops are good. ” there’s nothing here that connects the president to that sort of ideology or argument.
Posted by: Kimberly | Aug 22, 2011 3:11:14 PM
Can you please cite those statements and ‘facts’? I’ve not heard about the Republican/Libertarian sweatshop connection. I DO know that our current president obviously thinks it’s okay for innovative ideas to be born here in the US, but as far as manufacturing, assembling, and shipping…well, it doesn’t really matter, does it?
Come on, LYDIA, ooops, sorry, Kimberly, this is like a chef coming up with a fantastic recipe (innovation), then sending it to Mexico to be made, cooked, designed (in a low wage sweatshop) and shipped back to America. The chef gets the kudos, the TV show, the cookware design to be sold at Macy’s, and the Mexican workers get…nothing. Neither do the American workers who STILL don’t have a job. But, hey, as long as Obama and other Democrats like the food and buy the cookware, who cares? Right? Oh, no, wait. According to YOUR logic, only Libertarians and Republicans would enjoy the food and buy the cookware. Just for kicks, they might even watch the TV show, too.
It’s time for the Democrats to climb down off the holier-than-thou highorse and realize they are no different than those they condemn for their alleged ‘wrongdoings’. Give me a break.

If you had any direct personal experience with innovation, you wouldn’t keep evading the questions. This is why nobody cares what Obama’s supporters have to say. They have absolutely no clue what they’re talking about.

Because saying I did would be enough proof for you? Yeah? No?
If yes, why would it be?
Let’s unpack your questions and figure out your foundation here: what proof do you offer that (a)I claim to know so much about science and innovation, direct quote and time stamp preferred, and what signifies “so much”? How much would be enough in your opinion to comment on the clip in which the president praises innovation and the wealth derived from it or to know that Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak designed, developed, and marketed one of the first commercially successful lines of personal computers? How much would be enough to comment that leaders in environmental, social, and governance (ESG) policy have 25 percent higher stock value and the fastest-growing stock value or that all business can be conceived as solving real or perceived problems– ask anyone in marketing. Or to realize that if you’re a profit-maximizing capitalist who believes climate change is a hoax, you’ll still do exactly what you’d do if you worried about climate change, which is solve it and other perceived problems– real or not— at a profit. Or to realize that there are opportunities to make money on alternate energy, energy efficiency devices, tech.
what proof do you offer that (b)if I had any direct personal experience with innovation, I wouldn’t keep evading the questions; specifically walk us through that logic and give examples that make that true; provide evidence that you are being reasonable in making that statement. Why would I? What would doing so accomplish? What would be your next questions? Why?
Is it your contention that unless you establish your level of expertise via resume on each and every subject you comment on, that means you have no expertise and your opinion isn’t worthwhile?
Logical argumentation could proceed without personal questions, but one would have to be intelligent enough to proceed in that fashion. It is not my concern if that is not the case. My privacy isn’t up for sacrifice.

And I’m thrilled for them. It’s good to see excellent minds do excellent work. HOWEVER that isn’t the point of this conversation and YOU know it. The more you try to twist and contort it, the sillier you look. Why don’t you just explain to us why Barack Obama and the Democrats think it is worthwhile to grill Republicans on their so-called “sweatshop mentality” while praising those who are actually USING SWEATSHOPS to produce their product without even pointing that dirty little secret out? If he is SO willing to call out the ‘fat cats’ and ‘corporate big wigs’ and ‘the rich’, then why not call out Steve Jobs and Apple for their use of cheap labor? Is there a different score card for those who are in Obama’s pocket? A different rule book for Liberals? Please, Kimberly, do tell.

HOWEVER that isn’t the point of this conversation and YOU know it.

Shoe, it was the point of Obama’s comments that you cut and pasted! Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak designed, developed, and marketed one of the first commercially successful lines of personal computers. That’s a BFD. That’s the bottom line of the president’s remarks, that and that he celebrates growing wealthy via creativity and innovation like that. You overlaid some unrelated tangent and claim ignorance to the pro-sweat shop libertarian/conservative stance. It’s logically flimsly but ultimately you wanted to have a conversation with someone else so you can await her response to it and maybe she’ll be kinder in overlooking the flaws. I’m stuck on how silly the whole thing is.

Yep, lies are lies and your tangent is a tangent and your argument is convoluted. Fact of the matter is Obama was praising innovation, AND Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak designed, developed, and marketed one of the first commercially successful lines of personal computers. That’s innovation. You overlaid some unrelated tangent and claim ignorance to the pro-sweat shop libertarian/conservative stance. It’s logically flimsly but ultimately you wanted to have a conversation with someone else so you can await her response to it and maybe she’ll be kinder in overlooking the flaws. I’m stuck on how silly the whole thing is. But no worries, right wingers won’t notice silly or convoluted. They have a chemical attraction to that sort of thing.
But speaking of lies, which do you believe? The pledges not to hike taxes?Republican opposition to Obama’s proposal for a payroll tax cut extension constitutes support for a tax hike and yet nearly every Republican in Congress has signed Norquist’s and Americans for Tax Reform’s pledges not to raise taxes. Right wingers are big on pledges.
In the not-so-distant past, Norquist himself has referred to the refusal to extend temporary tax cuts as a tax hike and a violation of the pledge. That was his clarification.
I say most Republicans are hypocrites, but maybe not all.
Henry Bloch — co-founder and chairman emeritus of the tax preparation company H&R Block and a registered Republican — agrees with Warren Buffet and says that “the wealthy have a debt to this country. They can afford to pay it and they should.” He added that the Republican push to protect tax breaks for millionaires in order to promote job creation is “baloney“.

The rest of the country looks at the crop of Republican carnival barkers and sees the right wing’s own “demagoguery and empty rhetoric” such as “pray for rain” and “businesses are people”.
Remember the uproar over extending the Bush era tax cuts? Now, many of the SAME Republicans who fought to keep those cuts from expiring are FOR allowing Middle Class payroll tax cuts expire. Wait, I thought tax increases were against the Grover Norquist pledge of allegiance.
Apparently the notion of “fiscal conservative” only works when supporting the wealthy who REALLY need those cheap capital gains taxes.

A voice of reason!
Every Republican candidate has also failed to acknowledge Obama’s role in pursuing and capturing Osama bin Laden AND assisting the Libyan people but the Libyan people know: there are photos of them applauding Obama and thanking him and international allies via a huge sign

I say most Republicans are hypocrites, but maybe not all.
And I say most Democrats are hypocrites, but maybe not all. In your case, and those like you who want to ride the wave of those horrible job killing companies who send jobs overseas and make huge profits, there’s a perfect example.
You’ve made your point as to what Obama was talking about in the ‘cut-and-paste’ I did earlier. HOWEVER, you either cannot or WILL NOT acknowledge the simple fact that Steve Jobs, as one of the founders and leaders of Apple, utilized Chinese sweat shops for his innovative products, and yet, we have NEVER heard at ANY TIME this fact discussed by Barack Obama. NEVER. Say what you want about the Republicans, take all the shots you feel you need to, but it will not change anything. If Barack Obama is unwilling to step up and make known that cheap labor is not something he stands for REGARDLESS of who uses it, then he is no more viable in labor and/or trade agreements than those you have labeled as “uncaring Republicans”. The double standard is stunning.
I would absolutely love to see Obama go into a room full of unemployed American workers and explain to them what a wonderful innovator Steve Jobs is, and that although the innovative products he developed are being manufactured and produced in China, he’s still a great guy. How long do you think it would take that room of people to explode. They don’t really CARE that Steve Jobs innovates. They care about whether or not they get to make that innovation a reality in a factory HERE. I’m all for new and useful technology. I’m also for people in our country WORKING. You’d think the president and other Democrats would be as well. But from his silence on this issue (with Apple), and your unwillingness to explain how you balance the innovator/sweatshop problem, it seems as though I am wrong.
Goodnight all.

Posted by: Kimberly | Aug 22, 2011 9:17:22 PM
As opposed to the “credibility” of Obama and the Democrats? According to the BLS, five MILLION workers have dropped out of the national labor force since June 2009 (“Recovery Summer”). We lost another 193,000 workers last month (about the same number of people who were added to our population). Our labor force has SHRUNK to the same size it was 11 years ago. Real unemployment is 50% in Detroit. The current chronic unemployment percentage is higher than it was at the end of the Great Depression (44% vs. 31%). Obama’s policies have been a disaster across the board. His sycophants have a raging case of Stockholm Syndrome.

Chuck, I’ll help you out… here’s one thing Romney had done to create a couple of jobs. Romney has filed an application with the city to bulldoze his 3,009-square-foot, single-story home at 311 Dunemere Dr. and replace it with a two-story, 11,062-square-foot structure.
Three years ago, Romney bought the “oceanfront manse in La Jolla” for $12 million. His campaign says the house on the property is too small for Romney.
There’s no date yet… but hey, he’s trying. I’ll grant you that;^)

If Kimberly knew anything about La Jolla she would know that many builders in town are getting business replacing older,smaller houses with bigger houses on connecting lots.I wouldn’t put much trust in her view of the situation-she still doesn’t know what the biggest event is in Oshkosh despite claiming to be an expert on the town.

Nephron, you also haven’t made a case for GOP credibility. You haven’t discussed their job proposals, job record, flip flops on tax hikes… nada. I realize it’s hard. Their record is dismal and they have no job creation plans/solutions just slavish adherence to Hooveresque/Hayekian b.s in a sluggish economic times. The only one who has a solution is Romney, and while you’re right, I know little about LaJolla, I’ve never been lived in California, it’s pretty clear that knocking down one 12 million dollar house to put up something bigger won’t solve the national jobs crisis. You deny that?
lol. (quick, check wikipedia… lol. )

“Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.”
- Winston Churchill

Susan, if that’s true and you truly are as fearful of socialism as you seem why do you support the GOP moving so far right they’re in danger of falling into a Horowitz Singularity and emerging as weirdly religious Trotskyites– and why wouldn’t you support my fight against something like that?

“I do,” Boehner replied. “When you look at this final agreement that we came to with the white House, I got 98 percent of what I wanted. I’m pretty happy.” Straight from the horses mouth.
The House Republican leader Boehner is a hypocrite. He cried in front of the media when he was elected cause he said his dream came true. Well, his dream truly came true to get what he wants for his own career, now it really shows he is not thinking what is good for the whole country. When he talks, looking back, one can feel what a hypocrite he is, the American dream it is not for him only, but he should sacrifice so it is a dream for more people. That is a true hero. A hero that we would have teary eyes for. The idea of having teary eyes for yourself in public life, but others do not admire you for what you do for them. That is a loser…when I think back he was tearing up for himself in a public office. Loser!!!! His an’t Hero tears.
Boehner stop playing self interest politics and party to win your election for yourself, but do what is great for individual every day Americans. Now Boehner stays away from the media, but we don’t forget how the US economy got here right after the debt ceiling debacle.
