Joined? He’s always been a part of it. Just about all of them are.
And they just have Obama Loretta Lynch too. Boy, they’ze really standin’ up to dat upidy you know what.
The power of Jeb compells you!
Jeb got one big RINO horn, don’t he? The biggest problem Jeb’s got is the Missus. Everyone finds out he’s got a Latina wife they be expecting Sophia Vergarra, and instead they’ll see Abuelita.
Criada
John McCain’s trained monkey voted for her as well. add that to Kagen and Sotomayor.As well as whomever else Obummer tells him to vote for.
I can”t believe I found myself on the same side of this as Elizabeth Warren. There is nothing in this “trade deal” good for the American worker.
Don’t ever say that again!
Yeah, I know. Had this awful thought about turning left but a few minutes in the fecal position cleared my mind.
If we make abortion illegal, and use the abortion clinics to pass out machine guns for those that can’t afford them, will you go liberal then?
That would definitely be my kind of welfare program. LOL Could you imagine Chicago with that welfare program. Making abortion illegal would create more targets. Sounds like a win-win proposition. LOL Nothing would make me turn liberal .
Let the unborn babies live. We can always decide later if we want to kill them.
I said abortion clinics, not neonatal units.
I never could understand what difference that makes. That’s why I’m pro life.
superstition ain’t the way

Science and Superstition agree. Prenatal, neonatal are just different stages of human development.
built upon that difference is reasonable behavior
built upon that difference similarity is reasonable behavior
Perspective is important.
RE…they (liberals and FITS-types) are using ANYTHING they can to try to attack any Republican with…
Lets EXTERMINATE the Democrats from DC – like we have almost done in SC…then bicker about the details…then set the noodle-spined Republicans straight…
Until we destroy the truly DANGEROUS enemy..nothing else matters..
Another piece from one of Sic’s fringe “sources.” Only in some Orwellian world of bizarre political discourse is Paul Ryan a liberal. As far as Cruz is concerned, with his Harvard and Princeton education, Supreme Court clerkship, work at Cooper & Kirk, and ties to Goldman Sachs, he has always been a paragon of the establishment. He just plays a TPer to dupe the rubes.
Republicans TPed the House
and his fellow Canadians…
O Canada!
Our home and native land!
True patriot love in all thy sons command.
With glowing hearts we see thee rise,
The True North strong and free!
From far and wide,
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
God keep our land glorious and free!
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
Hey that birther stuff only applies to Black Democrats
That op-ed dealt with a long overdue passage of trade agreements that should have been made a long time ago. This is no sell-out to the establishment, but rather another example of just what a rock solid conservative Ted Cruz is.

“Had they (Ryan and Cruz) been allowed to read and review the so-called deal they might have known that. But sadly, the Obama Administration has kept the “deal” under lock and key — virtually nobody has been allowed to view it.”
This is just flatly wrong. Mr. Manning is confusing TPA (Trade Promotion Authority) with TPP (Trans-Pacfic Partnership). An important distention, it would seem. The TPA bill, which is the subject of the Ryan/Cruz op-ed — is available to Mr. Manning — and to everyone, and has been for a while now. But, never let a little misdirection get in the way of a good demagoguing. OBAMATRADE… BAD!!!
What we have learned here is that Mr. Manning has NOT read the bill that is the subject of the op-ed. Interesting turnabout, it seems.
Sorry…distinction, not distention. Freud?
Spell check
A lot of idiots posting here. You don’t understand free trade. Don’t ever consider that every worker is also a consumer. You think that other countries currency devaluation hurts the US when about $0.50 off the drop in gas prices is due to weaker foreign currencies. If you can buy anything cheaper overseas than you can produce it here are hurting everyone if you don’t.
Besides the US has tremendous advantages over foreign countries. We own more patents, trademarks and intellectual property. TPP will increase protection of that American property. The US has a better infrastructure, legal system, trusted currency. How many companies are going to risk investing in a billion dollar plant in Myanmar. Myanmar can have the sewing mills and zipper factories that kept the South poor.
There are many countries that either require large tariffs on our exports or require a large percentage of production is done in their home countries. TPP does away wit that.
If you can name a single general (more than three countries) trade agreement that was enacted after any one of the treaty member’s legislature amended the agreement, I’ll eat my Bible. Amending it is to kill it. No other country would agree to that.
Finally, when dumb people don’t understand something they come up with stupid reasons to oppose it. “Obama’s for it. He is a liar so I’ll oppose.” Well even liars sometimes tell the truth. If you believe someone is a liar you should disregard what say not believe the opposite is true. Only an idiot says “If Obama says it, I’ll believe the opposite.
Notice how Manning starts his article using the phrase “Establishment globalist” as if it were the most evil thing you could imagine. Yet, there probably isn’t a single person reading this article who wouldn’t starve to death naked and homeless if it were not for “Establishment Globalists” providing your food, clothing, shelter, conveniences, energy and medicine.
If you’re against “Establishment globalist” then don’t be a hypocrite. Throw away your smartphone, computer; burn your clothes; ditch your Toyota, Honda or BMW. South Carolina has been behind all of our history, but we do have one advantage that could put us ahead. We have a “Establishment globalist” economy. We export more cars than any other state. We produce more tires than any state. We produce commercial airplanes mostly for export. We build gas turbines for export.
Look around the world at what countries are successful in providing for its citizens well being. All of them have different advantages, but at least one thing they have in common is that they are all Establishment Globalists”.

When SC had sewing mills and textile plants, the people had steady jobs. They did not keep the South poor, the owners of those factories kept the south poor and dumb. SC would love to have those plants back now. If SC had not been so anti-union, we would most likely still have a Textile industry and we most likely would have a higher standard of living.
But since you like free trade and competition, why does your theory not apply to labor.
I support the right to organize unions, but I’m highly critical of how they operate. Typically, job advancement has more to do with your union performance than job performance.
A worker’s greatest power is the ability to take his labor and offer it to another employer.
Seems that jobs are moving from unionized states to non union states.
“Yet, there probably isn’t a single person reading this article who
wouldn’t starve to death naked and homeless if it were not for
“Establishment Globalists” providing your food, clothing, shelter,
conveniences, energy and medicine.”
I actually agree with most of your post, with the exception of the above, and here’s why:
You are conflating “establishment globalists” with actual markets themselves.
You haven’t considered that markets are functioning to provide quality of life DESPITE OF, not “because of”, “establishment globalists”…which in and of itself seems vague in definition.
If you are defining such and those that are crony capitalists or operating in a window of government sponsored monopoly or taxpayer subsidy, I vehemently disagree.
If by “establishment globalists” you meaning some other definition, maybe I don’t disagree.
I already know about Ted Cruz being a fraud…now how about that Rand Paul who paled around with Al Sharpton or his papa supporting crony Capitalist Mark Sanford?
Yea…how come none of the Pauls are mentioned like Ted Cruz is mentioned? So I guess you can be a fraud and be a Paul…but not with anyone else being a fraud…
