Oh, that pledge only applied to non-emergency legislation? Oh.

How convenient.

[Carley]

Just one more lie from the One. We will never have a day when he lives up to his promises or tells the whole truth about anything.

[NormsRevenge]

Talk is cheap in politics, it seems.

Unfortunately, newly passed and signed legislation of late is not.

[ThomasThomas]

Dodging?

[FlingWingFlyer]

Der Fuhrer hasn’t been very truthful with the people. Is it 01-20-13 yet?

[driftdiver]

So they are passing laws they haven’t read and refuse to make public until its too late to do anything about it.

Sounds pretty normal for a communist country.

[Venturer]

Does the phrase lying sack of Doo-Doo mean anything to anyone?

[driftdiver]

‘Der Fuhrer hasn’t been very truthful with the people. Is it 01-20-13 yet?”

hadn’t you heard, the next election has been postponed due to the emergency.

For all we know thats in the bill too.

[Prokopton]

Anyone that doesn't already realize he is a lying SOS is brain dead.

[FlingWingFlyer]

You’re probably right. Until someone can find the time to actually read what is in this porker, we’ll never know.

[GrouchoTex]

“During the campaign, Obama pledged to post legislation online for five days before signing it. But administration officials have said they don’t have to do that for the stimulus because the pledge applied only to non-emergency legislation.”

Give me a break. 5 days wouldn’t have made any difference in this kind of bill.
This not an emergency no matter how they spin it, not the kind that couldn’t wait 5 more days.

Just how much more arrogance and dishonesty will come out of this administration?

Whar do they take us for?

Volcanoes, earthquakes,hurricanes, terror attacks,.etc.etc.etc. these things are emergencies that would require imediate action.

[eeriegeno]

Yeah but I bet Helen Thomas will bring this subject up in the next Whitehouse briefing session!!!!!

[razbinn]

I Won!!!

[driftdiver]

“Volcanoes, earthquakes,hurricanes, terror attacks,.etc.etc.etc. these things are emergencies that would require imediate action.”

well I’m guessing we’ll be seeing more of at least one of those real soon.

[Old Time American]

Will a rout of the house of reps in 2010 be considered a terrorist attack?

[Ted Grant]

Remember, I think it was Peter Jennings who reported that the 1994 GOP victory in Congress was a ‘temper tantrum’ by the American people.

[KwHorn77]

BHO is a lying SOB and knows he can get away with it!

[mikrofon]

Obama's true transparency:

[autumnraine]

It’s not even 02-20-09 yet.

[KwHorn77]

BHO is a lying SOB and knows he can get away with it! IMPEACH BHO NOW!<\b>
