I would have so much more respect if you would just own up to the fact that Obama, on several occasions, made a promise he could not, will not, had no intention of keeping for the simple reason of garnering public support.

So let me get this straight... when the left has no winning argument in a debate, their tactics resort to: 1)deflect by changing the topic, 2)spin the issue to your liking, and 3)continue to tow the party line at all costs, even when they know they are in the wrong by doing 1 & 2. Congrats on following the lib rulebook to a T.
I fail to see how addressing the title of the thread is hi-jacking.

Also, I wasn't arguing from a liberal bias at any point. It's not liberal bias to ask for accuracy in the titling of threads.

Care to answer, or not?
Move over Fox News, CNN is telling it like it is now too.

Jack Cafferty:

“President Obama hasn’t even made a token effort to keep his campaign promises of more openness and transparency in government. It was all just another lie that was told, to get elected.”

“The Democrats insist this is all on the up-and-up… with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi saying ‘there's has never been a more open process for any legislation.’ Really?

This is the same Nancy Pelosi who you may recall, after becoming Speaker in 2006, promised 'the Democrats would have the most honest, most open and most ethical Congress in history.’ Here's hoping the voters remember some of this crap when the midterm elections roll around later this year.”
