Fast-Track: "........a special interest boondoggle.”

Via Billy


The political horserace gets interesting in a muddled sort of way when Congress starts to consider free trade. On Thursday, the House sent a bill to the Senate that would give Barack Obama more power to enter into a free trade agreement with the countries arrayed around the Pacific. The bill, Trade Promotion Authority, passed on a 218-208 vote.

Normally, it’s fairly easy to figure out where the major politicians will come down on an issue.
