If he signs it, and it's not an emergency, and then he puts it up for five days, that might live up to the letter of his promise.
Sunlight Before Signing: Too often bills are rushed through Congress and to the president before the public has the opportunity to review them. As president, Obama will not sign any non-emergency bill without giving the American public an opportunity to review and comment on the White House website for five days.
