Obama Campaign Slams Clinton for Flip Flopping
The Obama campaign conducted a conference call with Communications Director Robert Gibbs and Obama supporter Representative George Miller to set the record straight on Hillary Clinton’s NAFTA positions.
“Yesterday brought another tale of repeating her exaggerations to her opposition to NAFTA. The facts, her records, and her own schedules while she was first lady completely contradict her claim,” says Gibbs. He went on to refute Clintons statements on the amount of jobs she provided in upstate New York and continued to combat her stances, or lack there of, on NAFTA.
Gibbs, with over thirty years of experience in Congress, spoke next with a short speech on NAFTA and voiced his dismay on how NAFTA agreements were carried out. He concluded with, “following NAFTA there was an absolute failure to provide a support system for those workers and families that needed to be retrained, that needed the opportunity to go back to school to provide the income for their families as they lost their jobs – and that’s why I’m supporting Barack Obama.”

The more attention in the media (all media) Hillary’s REAL positioning on NAFTA gets, the better for Obama. The better for us! Tariffs need to be put back in place, equal labor laws, etc. as our Founders intended.
