Broken Promises and Lies..

Yeah, you're right; with your massive intellect and wealth of education you are certainly in a better position to understand what is going on than am I.   

Education has nothing to do with the ability to see past the smoke and mirrors.

Obama ducks promise to delay bill signings.....

It seemed among the easiest of his transparency pledges and is entirely under his control, but President Obama is finagling his promise to post bills on the White House Web site for comment for five days before he signs them.

Mr. Obama last week signed four bills, each just a day or two after Congress passed and sent it over to him.

AGAIN....not to just let this one be 'exed' away.....this is just to show what kind of LIAR this guy IS.

From your posted article .....


"The White House said it posted links from its Web site to Congress' legislative Web site about a week before Mr. Obama signed the measures, but transparency advocates say that doesn't match the president's pledge to give Americans time to comment on the final version he is about to sign."

"When there's a bill that ends up on my desk as president, you the public will have five days to look online and find out what's in it before I sign it, so that you know what your government's doing," Mr. Obama said in a major campaign speech laying out his goals for transparency.

.........

Nitpicking at its best.

Call it nitpicking if you want........he signed them TWO days after congress passed them.........that is NOT a week, nor was it posted on the White House site for five days....and THAT is what he said he would do....

I think the word  ... delusional... is what Ex used....THAT is what he want's everybody to be.

[Bo D]

nor was it posted on the White House site for five days....

No, you are correct. It wasn't posted for five days. The bills were posted a week before he signed them.

[Henry Hawk]

No, you are correct. It wasn't posted for five days. The bills were posted a week before he signed them.

Prove it...the article said he signed four bills a day or two after congress passed them........maybe they was on the web BEFORE the became a bill......the verbage could have changed,....but he signed them a day or two AFTER congress passed them.

that is not five days or a week........that is a day or two.

[Exterminator]

No, you are correct. It wasn't posted for five days. The bills were posted a week before he signed them.

If you insist on using truth and logic in your responses, Henry won't be left with anything to bitch about.

[Bo D]

Prove it...

Your own article says so.

Obama did say "unless it was an emergency" which is why all these bills are getting the rush through before anyone can find out what's really in them or they can be properly read by congress.  That speed reader they had for one of the most recent bills was a joke.  He, the speed reader, didn't even read the whole bill to congress.  How can we be sure what was in it if Congress don't even know?  They are changing what certain things are called to make them sound more "acceptable" and using all kinds of smoke screens to keep people from knowing whats hidden in these bills until they get passed.  Everything about this congress is divisive and deceptive not to mention diversionary.

Hmmmmm .... that reminds me .... forgive me if I'm wrong, but isn't that exactly what was said about the Patriot Act?

See there you go.  The Patriot Act was necessary to keep our shit from being blown up.  Bush has nothing to do with what's going on now.

Your own article says so.

"He didn't say, 'When there's a bill heading to my desk,' or 'When we're pretty sure a bill will soon be passed.' He said when a bill ends up on his desk ..... you will have   FIVE days....to view it!!....those are HIS lying words....not mine.
