Elizabeth Warren votes against Obama trade nominee

“I have heard the argument that transparency would undermine the trade representative’s policy to complete the trade agreement because public opposition would be significant,” she said, according to text of her speech provided by her office. “If transparency would lead to widespread public opposition to a trade agreement, then that trade agreement should not be the policy of the United States.”

Wow, that woman is all that and more.

The PTT must be one big stinking pile of offal.
Probably will have to be executive ordered or something, sounds like no one would want to have their name attached to it.

I think it's just because of her strong moral compass and compassion for the American people.
