At least watch the video before you troll... That is only ONE of the lies from his own mouth..

By the way, the previous bills he signed after inauguration were not made available either..

Either????

It was posted the day it was passed - before it was passed, in fact.

So he didn't post a bill for 5 days that he signed before he had even been in office for 5 days? Really? That's important to you? The bill had been around in it's final form for years, but just couldn't get past the the Republican Senate filibuster. And this is the 1 in over 500 promises listed that has been "broken."

You obviously have no ability to make a specific point, just a general ***** session about how everyone other than you is an idiot.

Explain, in you own words, what promise Obama has broken. Is it that hard? Do you have any argument other than calling someone a "troll?"

If you watched the video, it would be clear.. But since you obviously need it spelled out for you, here ya go...

SOME OF THE OBAMA LIES


1. CHANGE - Make Government Open and Transparent

2. Make it "Impossible" for Congressmen to slip in Pork Barrel Projects into laws.

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

4. No more secrecy (closed door sessions)

5. Public will have 5 days to look at a ALL Bills online before he signs it.

6. You'll know what's in every Bill and who asked for corporate tax breaks, pork, and earmarks... (NOBODY READ THE STIMULUS)

7. We will put every pork barrel project online . You will know who asked for them and you will decide if your representative is actually representing you.

8. No Lobbyists in Administration, nor will they be able to gift in return for favor..

9. Meetings between Lobbyists and government agencies will be put on line.


This all would have been clear if you had watched the video and were not a partisan shill... I'm done with you troll, this is the first and last time I will take your bait.

I asked for you to explain specifically, in your own words, how he broke his promises, and you cut and past from a youtube post? Weak. Those aren't actual quotes - key words are taken out. If you actually watch the video, and pay attention, you would realize that.

The President is a part of the Executive Branch of government. He has very limited power to tell Congress what to do. How can Congress break a promise that the President makes? He's done everything he said he would in that clip, except post the bill for 4 days instead of 5. Big freakin' deal.
