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.

Don't shoot the messenger, I'm just regurgitating......

Well yeah, of course he'll do it!

I mean, the Dems just got their dream pork bill passed! Congress will be going on vacation after it's passage...

Also, this comment: "the public elected a teleprompter - none of his speeches meant anything" - hilarious.

It's funny that he uses a teleprompter when talking with the press and they are working to implement a screen into the podium so he can get information fed to him while speaking. If Bush had done similar everyone would have screamed that Rove was telling him what to say......Obama gets a pass for it and for breaking his promises.

Exactly. I'm pretty sick of the political double standard. I wish I could say I can't believe people are stupid enough to fall for this but I know better.

Nope. He probably stole his talk points from this thread.

LOL! That'd be good. I was listening to him the other day and he was ripping Obama a new butt hole for all of his lies and I'm pretty sure all 7 of the ones you listed were on his list.

The lies will grow. IMO, Obama is on a set path and feels he cannot change course no matter what happens. Hell, he has been thus far able to press forth a huge portion of what the Dem party wants and has done it in 1 month. Pelosi and gang are sitting around wringing their hands at what else they can pull out of the hippy-lib basket.

I say we need a stimulus for plastic surgery cuz we all can see it's something Pelosi feels strongly about.....

#1 and #4 are beginning to be put in place. One of the first things Obama did was issue a memo reverting FOIA back to its original intentions.

As for the rest, I'll give him a few months before I pass judgment. It's hard to fix a car while it is driving down the road.

If he were working on 1 and 4 he would make sure bills are posted online as he had promised.

These are emergency bills that are worked on for weeks at a time and discussed for days at a time before they are voted on and then finally released somewhat to the public. There is simply no time for them to release the bill to the public, donchano
