Rasmussen:America to Congress--SHOW US THE DAMMED BILL !!!
Rasmussen/ The Lid ^ | 9/30/09 | The Lid

Posted on 09/30/2009 9:35:59 AM PDT by Shellybenoit

Last week the Senate Finance committee turned down an amendment that would have required a the Obamacare bill to be posted on the internet and a 72 hour waiting time before it was voted on so the congress and the public could read the bill. The amendment was turned down because the Democrats thought it was a stalling tactic. The latest Rasmussen survey reports that it isn't a delaying tactic but the will of the people.

Obviously the Democrats had the American People's best interest at heart. Why dump a 1000+ bill written in legalese on the dumb populace. Hell, they don't even read it themselves. Just pass it and stop stalling you racists! - sarc

Harry Reid will not allow any Senate version as a bill by itslef if he has his way. Instead he will attach the Senate version as an Amendment to HR1586. Read the following thread I wrote and posted.

Obama specifically promised on-line viewing of all legislation.

Like everything else from his lips, this was a total lie.

From Rasmussen: “Democrats, Republicans and independents all agree that bills should be available for public review. Eighty-five percent of Republicans, 76% of Democrats and 92% of voters independents favor posting non-emergency bills online for the public to read before they are voted on by Congress.”

Of those who favor posting congressional bills in their final form on the Internet, 64% say they should be available to the public two weeks or more before Congress votes and 29% favor posting bills one week before a vote.

So 93% want at least a week, but Congress says no. So much for the will of the people.

Remember when about a million dollars went to Joe Wilson in just a few days? Do you suppose that Reid would pay attention to a similar amount going to his opponent?

Obama and the democrat run congress do not give a rat’s behind what the American people want.

As long as they are in power, they are going to do exactly what they want... build and hang onto power.

They see our protests as nothing but noise from the little people. They see us as the enemy and they are going to do their best to cripple and silence us.

IMPEACH THE BASTARD NOW.
