You're not getting any answers because nobody believes you're serious. After all, nobody could be that stupid; nobody could be that blinded by partisanship. Nobody.

Tell me what Obama has managed to ram through Congress without debate.

This is the last time I will ask.

The list would be shorter if the question were, "what bills have been debated" before obama signed them.

PolitiFact | Allow five days of public comment before signing bills - Obama promise No. 234:

PolitiFact | Negotiate health care reform in public sessions televised on C-SPAN - Obama promise No. 517:

So, we're supposed to be outraged because he signed legislation protecting credit card users from sneaky corporate tricks, giving impoverished children access to health care, and providing gender equality in the workplace? And he did that without providing five days of public comment.


Yeah, that's just AN OUTRAGE:crying :

This thread is not about the actual legislation,but rather the manner in which he ramrods it through contrary to his own campaign rhetoric, not to mention it's insidious, decietful, dishonest etc. etc.
Sorry you aren't smart enough to see the difference.

The serious work on ARRA was begun in September. It was signed in February. The FY2009 Omnibus Spending bill was drafted in the 110th Congress. The FY2010 Budget was first outlined in February and filled out in May. It won't be passed and signed until the Fall. The health care and energy bills have already been in the works for months. Apparently, if things aren't headlined on FOX News, they don't exist in the minds of some...
