Stimulus Bill Broke 7 Obama Promises

From YouTube:

7 Broken Promises in Record Time

1. Make government open and transparent.

2. Make it "impossible" for Congressmen to slip in pork barrel projects.

3. Meetings where laws are written will be more open to the public. (Even Congressional Republicans shut out.)

4. No more secrecy.

5. Public will have 5 days to look at a bill.

6. You’ll know what’s in it.

7. We will put every pork barrel project online.

Funny, but not one of Mr. Obama’s promises were met with the most expensive spending bill in our nation’s history.

Indeed, Mr. Obama has not kept his word on most of the bills so far passed, if any

Which is why it is a fool's errand to spend much time on the fantasy called bipartisanship. 90% of talk radio is extremist right wing. There is no give and take on that side.

Right now, they are trying to turn Bush into a Democrat. With that much air time they are probably going to succeed.
