Who Is The Real “Free Trader”?

   This should be an amusing sideshow:

In the speech, Camp will describe Obama as a recent and largely disingenuous convert to a pro-trade agenda, according to excerpts of his remarks reviewed by POLITICO.

“Under the Democrats’ control, we did not hold a single hearing on our pending trade agreements since they were signed three and a half years ago – not Colombia, not Panama and not South Korea,” Camp will say at the National Press Club Wednesday morning. “The president barely mentioned Colombia and Panama in his State of the Union address – creating further skepticism, if not outright doubt, as to this administration’s dedication to free trade.”

   Though I know this won’t happen, the president could say, "you know, you’re right–I took on that "free trader" moniker and boy was i dumb. Those deals only help the same corporations who have robbed the middle class and those deals just reduce wages for everyone".

    I can dream, no?
