Chief Obamatrade proponent House Ways and Means Committee chairman Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) admitted during Congressional testimony on Wednesday evening that despite tons of claims from him and other Obamatrade supporters to the contrary, the process is highly secretive.
He also made a gaffe in his House Rules Committee testimony on par with former Speaker Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA)’s push to pass Obamacare, in which she said infamously said: “we have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it.”
“It’s declassified and made public once it’s agreed to,” Ryan said of Obamatrade in Rules Committee testimony on Wednesday during questioning from Rep. Michael Burgess (R-TX).

Why does this have to be such a big fucking secret?

Obamatrade? Is that something they think is clever, like appending -gate to the end of every scandal?
Should we call this story Obamatradegate?

Free and open trade need not be a secret. It's not rocket science.
I'm with both you and TAZbro on this one.
The final version of the bill won't be a "secret". Congress is not going to be voting on something that only a couple of guys had access to.What in the world is going on here?

Exactly. If what they are trying to push through is so beneficial to the American people, why are they keeping it such a secret?

The lack of political acumen on the part of conservatives is remarkable.Paul Ryan's a fraud? I could've told you that 3 years ago.
Sounds a lot like obabblecare....and to think this moron got elected.....twice!Apparently, when conservatives talk about their love of limited government they define that as making backroom deals hidden from the public that could have a drastic affect on all of our lives and only revealing to you the consequences of said deal after it's finalized and there is little to nothing that can be done about it. To think this man almost became our Vice-President.

Oh...thanks for the clarification.All Ryan is doing is rounding up the votes, and they do that by "sweetening" the bill by adding provisions to sway individual votes. We have goodies for commercial fishing, provisions to not use the bill to further co2 curbs, provisions to not use the bill to expand immigration ..... When they round up the votes, we'll see what's in the final bill. Nothing new.
Obamacare was a bit new. Like Medicare and Soc Sec, they passed a bill setting up an entirely new program. No one does know what tweaks will have to be made till they see how it works. Not that I like Obamacare. But, there's no comparison to it and a free trade bill.
I like Ryan more and more. He's a republican who actually using the legislative process to actually accomplish things that he thinks will make us better, as opposed to another photo op to defund obamacare.
