From an email from Newt:

"When We Come Back In September, I Will be Available to Answer Any Question That Members of Congress Have"

It appears clear that the decision has been made to ignore the promise President Obama made to worried Americans in the summer of 2008 and again last July when he declared:

"So I just want everybody to know, Congress will have time to read the bill. They will have time to debate the bill. They will have all of August to review the various legislative proposals. When we come back in September, I will be available to answer any question that members of Congress have. If they want to come over to the White House and go over line by line what's going on, I will be happy to do that."

It is unfortunate that the Democratic leadership has decided it would be easier to rush their legislation through rather than honoring the people's right to know.

Then again, maybe that choice is all Americans need to know when judging the Democrats' healthcare bill.

-- Newt
