Obama’s democracy 2.0
The Politico headline is a little harsh, but Obama did promise that all bills would be online 5 days before they are signed so the American people can review them.
This apparently does not apply to emergency bills. Also, the system isn’t set up yet.
“Currently we are working through implementation procedures and some initial issues with the congressional calendar,” the statement read. “In the meantime, we will continue to post legislation on our website for comment as it moves through Congress over the next few weeks.” The White House posted a link on its website Sunday to the Senate bill.
It looks like another trillion is going to get printed, packed and shipped without the approval of the people.
