Pointless exercise, it's a done deal. Time to move on to the next national issue.
You are so right. Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi have spoken about this subject and C-Span and all other news sources will have to take their info from the secret meetings from the Dems that get to attend them. We must get that thing disposed with before the SOTU can be delivered. That is what you meant, isn't it?
Yes. Ms. Pelosi has been claiming unprecended transparency. At least allowing C-Span coverage would make an honest woman out of her. Finally.
Laughs, giggles and haw haws. Honest woman. She could never reach that stage just from the past 2 years. She didn't seem to know the meaning of that word when she promised so much of it. I think she has slipped over the hill in many ways other than her makeup playing up before a long day is over.
“That’s what I will do in bringing all parties together, not negotiating behind closed doors, but bringing all parties together, and broadcasting those negotiations on C-SPAN so that the American people can see what the choices are.” (Democratic presidential debate, 1/31/08)
Pointless exercise, it's a done deal. Time to move on to the next national issue.
Yes, it is a done deal. We just don't know what the deal is. The house and Senate versions are very different. If the sunlight was shown on the discussions maybe, just maybe, some of the most rediculous parts could be removed.
