I've been checking the White House site for bills awaiting the President's signature...

Anyone have a link?

I know during the campaign, President Obama made a point saying all Bills pending will be available to the public for comments...

Yeah, what's up with that, anyway? Why is the White House computer system so screwed-up? Maybe it was Bush's parting "screw-you" to Obama?

Typical broken campaign promises, just like that fact that no lobbyists would be appointed, then practically every appt has been a former lobbyist...plus, it was going to be no DC insiders, and they are all DC insiders. Also, Obama railed against Bush's budget deficits, which I agreed were agregious, then they immediately pass a bill that will add 7% immedately to that deficit...where are the spending cuts he said would be coming to match any spending bill that get's passed.
So far, this isn't Change we can believe in, and is not what I voted for.

Also, he said as soon as he was POTUS, we'd start to see an immediate draw down of troops from Iraq, which again is what I voted for, and now we find out it won't start for at least 16 months...again, not any change that I believed in.

I thought Nobama promised new legislation would be available on the White House website for 5 days for public comment before he signs a bill.

Has the President started to post bills on the net for 48 hour public comment?

Yes. And yours is due April 15th.
