In a press conference Thursday, the House Republican leadership spoke candidly about being kept out of the House-Senate conference on the Obama-Pelosi-Reid so-called economic stimulus bill. They confirmed they had not yet seen the text of the bill as of 4 p.m.
<SNIP> The fact that the Demos have now broken their promise to have the public able to see the bill for 48 hours may drive more Dems into the Republican camp.
[I] dont know, cause they havent seen the bill either, Boehner said.
The American people have a right to know whats in this bill, Rep. Mike Pence (R-Ind) told HUMAN EVENTS after the press conference. Every member of Congress -- Republicans and Democrats -- voted to post this bill on the internet for 48 hours, 48 hours ago. Well see if the Democrats keep their word.

If Steele can’t run with this, he’s a fool.
I don’t trust him. He seems like a total wimp.

Wow, if Little Lindsey is disgusted it must be bad. Isn't Barry rushing the bill also because he wants to make a big deal signing it on President's Day, comparing himself to Abe Lincoln with the Drive-Bys breathlessly swooning nearby.

I hope the good senator from Ohio will be flying commercial and not on a private jet.

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.English Translation: As president, Obama will sign any bill he wants without giving the American public an opportunity to review and comment on the White House website for five days, by simply calling any bill he wants to keep secret an "emergency".

“I wonder if that is where the 15 House Republicans report comes from. (wish wish)”
That seems much more reasonable.

For real - someone get a plan - I’m ready to go - maybe I’m just not a planner, but I’m in if it has to do with uncovering the truth. I’m so tired of trying to convince my facebook “friends” of what is actually happening.

Is this because Teddy needs to get down to FL and they need his vote before he goes?

Well, I suppose we could make a bunch more phone calls, but we better hurry. The house is supposed to vote by 9am tomorrow morning according to prom queen Pelosi and prom king Hoyer.

No surprise here. I expected they’d do this. No time for review. Bendover and take it.
