Politician breaks promise.

I know, I know, what a shocker! However, in this case the pol was Barack Obama. When campaigning he promised that we would be given a 5 day window to review any legislation before he signed it. He described it as "sunlight before signing". Yet another Obambi promise with an expiration date. This week he signed the dreadful SCHIP bill into law [it provides health care for "the childrens," some of whom are 25 years old and some of whom are illegal aliens, but I digress] just 3 hours after it was presented to him.

He also,

... signed the Lily Ledbetter Fair Pay Act only two days after it received final passage last week, and it wasn’t posted on the White House website until after it became law.

Start as you mean to go on, I guess. The reason he has this amazing arrogance is that he knows he will receive very little flak from the adoring media. For now. The tide will turn and then it will get ugly. Don't forget to stock up on popcorn. Read more here.
