Bipartisan support on Obama's Trade Deal.

Description
Both Republicans and the Administration finally see eye to eye on something.
Despite some objections from Democrats outside the administration (which delayed the initial deal), Republicans have backed the administration and are determined to see the Trade Deal go through.
The bill in question would specifically give the president so-called "fast-track" authority to approve trade deals, which Obama wants to seal a 12-nation pact involving Japan and 11 other countries bordering the Pacific Ocean. - Fox News
Good to see Congress and the Administration working together on something for once.
Republicans and Democrats may not always see eye to eye...
But the times they do, it tends to help the country a lot.
There's nothing good about Obama being overjoyed to work with corporate whores and nothing more comedic than someone citing a conservative entertainment channel as a source of information on the matter.
If you wanted a corporate ***** could try Hillary Clinton.
You know, the Democrat who champions women's rights yet takes money from countries that are most oppressive to women to fund her campaign, this case being Saudi Arabia.
What I find comedic is your sense of partisanship. Fox News is the number 1 cable "news" show in the United States. All left-wing channels do now is play identity politics and further divide the country. And if there is anything the country needs now, it's unity, not division.
Obama has finally found common ground with Conservatives. And that is a good thing for the country. Because it means Washington D.C. will actually get work done, and repair damage between the two parties. Which I support, Democrats and Republicans need to learn to compromise if the country is ever going to get out of the rut it is in.
P.S. All I cited was the last paragraph. How exactly was that even comedic? It's spot on to what the actual bill is about. You can check for yourself on more left sources if you like.
Your citing Hilary Clinton says all I need to know; that you know nothing about the left. She's no more serious a candidate than the clown car of reruns coming out of the far right. In fact, you'd be hard pressed to find a family more detrimental to the left in the US than the Clintons. Though the most amusing is your differentiation between conservatives and Obama, as if there is one to be found between the few moderates and him.
Wow, what alternate universe do you live in?
In case you haven't noticed Hillary Clinton is being groomed to be the primary candidate for the Democratic Party, the only other one would could resonate on the left is Bernie Sanders and he's a socialist. All he can do is hold her feet to the fire during primaries and drive her further left on issues, if that's even possible. Since she's started running, she's shifted far left to rally her base, she's drumming up a great deal of support and has the finances to back her campaign thanks the Clinton Foundation.
Amusing? There's nothing amusing right now other than your obvious ignorance to the realm of politics in the United States today.
The left and right are divided on many issues in the country right now, and the GOP as well as Obama have had many disagreements. The point of this post was to show they are showing some bipartisan agreement, for once in the past 6 and a half years of Obama's presidency. Which again I say, I support. If you don't agree with Obama or believe he should have ever even gotten in office, may I remind you it was the left, very same party you claim I know nothing of, that so happily voted him in, TWICE.
I don't know what left you are referring too, but it's obviously not one in the United States. The left in the U.S. today relies on identity politics, and division to acquire votes. They play on social issues and entitlement rights to gain support from minority voters. While the right tries to rally their base, and find ground to gain independent votes through sticking to the core of our nations roots by the Constitution and what our founding Fathers had in mind for America. Trying to remain neutral, which isn't easy for them all. While the right isn't as progressive as the left on social issues, they still have their positives. One of which being sticking to the Capitalist system. If we go totally socialist like the rest of Europe, which we've been slowing doing, it will drive the country into unending debt and entitlements. The only nation holding up Europe's economy right now is Germany, and that's because they are the most innovative and industrialist in Europe. Without that, Europe's socialist policies would have driven them all beyond the point of no return by now.
Hillary Clinton is the prime candidate for the Democratic Party. And there isn't doubt she will make the primaries, there's even a real chance she could make the presidency if she presses in and rallies her base enough. Although replicating Obama's success from previous elections won't be the same.
At least the Republican field is diverse, latino Candidates, black candidates, female candidates. The GOP now represents what the left should be trying to emulate, DIVERSITY. Showing the right and Republican party has a real chance for the future, and perhaps even taking the White House this coming 2016.
