83% of voters say that Congress should post bills before voting on them (Pelosi, healthcare)

Ok, yeah, this is from that heavily right leaning bunch, Rasmussen, but don't be surprised at the numbers of various party members and how they feel about it all. It is past time for the Congress to allow the people to know what they are voting on, if only so they have time to find out, themselves.

I want to know and also see a list of lobby groups that support and do not support a bill.
Then I'll know what I am up against or my Rep. or Senator is up against or is going for, for real.

I'm not sure if my party would support that though... : thinking:

well I'll still would be for it especially since C-Span doesn't cover things in a
timely manner. (I mean watching votes, not about lobbyist).

I would go with the two week thing, myself.

I was excited to see that independents were more for the idea than either Democrats or Republicans. They will make the determination of who stays and who goes in 2010 and that means a lot to me.

I'm still waiting for all this transparency we were promised and Princess Pelosi's promise to clean the muck and slime out of the House.

they are? : thinking: maybe both parties think they have more to lose
than to win to actually do this... hmmm... Independents... would they
be willing to do a march on washington to present their grievences
I wonder...

I would like to imagine something good that everybody could benefit from...

Seeing information like that would include people more who wanted to
be included or feel included in the way things are done.
