For the second time this year the Democrats have voted against transparency and by voting against posting a bill online 72 hours before it the vote. Transparency was a huge theme in the last election, this administration claimed it would be the most transparent in history, and while this vote is not President Obama fault, it shows that the Democrats, as a whole, are not living up to the promises of last election. Posting bills online prior to a vote was specifically mentioned during the 2008 race, and now that it is no longer politically convenient, transparency has been thrown overboard.

Also, are we still in a "health care crisis?"
ColdWarrior (Diary) Thursday, September 24th at 2:41PM EST (link)Recall, before the August recess, Teleprompter Boy kept insisting day after day after day that the country was in the throes of a health care crisis. That “crisis,” like all the others that preceded it, required “swift action” justifying the passage of, and his signing of, H.R. 3200 BEFORE the recess.
Thank goodness that did not happen.
But, what happened to all the talk about the “crisis?” Are we still in it? What evidence of the “crisis” exists?
Maybe it’s over.
Maybe the “Minion Media” will tell us. (http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=110672)
I dunno.
Thank you.
