AP: President Barack Obama signed the bill in private, unlike a number of recent signings that took place with fanfare, but he raised the issue of earmarks in public remarks playing down their scope and possible harm in the measure. They comprise about 1 percent of the spending package, which will keep the government running through September, he told reporters.

He’s a coward.
Reporter: Mr President you issued a signing statement on a bill with 9000 earmarks can you explain how that is change from the Bush administration?
My cat has more sense and class that he could ever dream of.
The more I see of this guy the more convinced I am that we are dealing with a person who is seriously mentally ill. Too bad so many voters couldn’t see this before bestowing on him the honor of the office he has now.
Anyone this intent on control has problems and will turn out to be a major problem for those who must deal with him.
"Trust me. There are no earmarks.
I am not a Marxist. I support American security."
Obama does provide for great campaign commercials.
Now I really do not think you are being fair. Maybe his teleprompters: Amos and Andy are out at the shop. With all the use they get these days, they could have just broken down in exhaustion and thus the private signing. Silly you—LOL. It may have all been as simple as he may have lost his ‘voice’(s), ((of course you know I am being MASSIVELY sarcastic.)
Yep. Liar. Thief. Coward. This is our new president.
I saw them cover that on Lie to me. Pretty funny.
He must have been smoking a Virginia Slim cigarette(”You’ve come a long way baby”) during the ceremony....
Transparency.... LOL....
The government run Pravda is only going to report to the People what they want the people to know.
Obama’s claims Transparency and becomes the most secretive President in History.
The truth is Obama is great at telling people what they want to hear but you can only be on all sides of an issue until stuff starts falling apart then you have to take a stand.
No 5 days waiting period for this bill either?
he’s a coward- transparently
You mean he didn’t fly to Iowa, where it all began, to sign it at a hog farm?
He had to lay down after picking up the pen and signing. The flash bulbs and TV lights would have kept him up.
Teleprompter down???
Gay coke-head... do not forget gay coke-head and Larry Sinclair.
LLS
Oh damn, I wanted a big speech, teleprompter and all.
You mean the big “O” wasn’t proud enough of this to drag out the teleprompter or fire up Air Force One?
