Obama 2004: Bush Rushed LegislationThrough Congress Without Allowing Time to Read Or Debate
NewsBusters ^ | July 27, 2009 | P.J. Gladnick

It looks like talk radio host Randi Rhodes is about to make waves again. Not for anything she is currently doing since Randi seems to have faded into near total obscurity ever since joining Premiere Radio Networks back in May. As was the case with her comments criticizing Al Franken and Ed Schultz whom she accused of being bought and paid for by Democrats on Capitol Hill, this radio show was broadcast before she entered her current face-on-the-milk-carton status.

This latest interview, uncovered by Naked Emporer News, seems destined to go viral on the Web. It features Randi Rhodes back during her Air America days interviewing then senator-elect Barack Obama on November 22, 2004. And despite the fact that Randi is currently pretty well hidden from public view, you can be sure Randi will soon be talked about again because of her inadvertent exposure of incredible hypocrisy on the part of Obama. And what was the hypocrisy? His complaint that the Bush administration was rushing legislation through congress without giving the legislators time to read the bills or allowing for much debate.

Bush was rushing congressional legislation wildly and without any thought outside of politics and Obomba is just being expedient and making good use of time. /s

You’re getting it wrong. Hyprocrisy, lying, accepting bribes and kickbacks, and especially evading taxes are considered righteous acts when committed by Dems. An important distinction.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Despite their denials, influential Democratic Sens. Kent Conrad and Chris Dodd were told from the start they were getting VIP mortgage discounts from one of the nation’s largest lenders, the official who handled their loans has told Congress in secret testimony.

Another clear example of a Democrat who will say ANYTHING to get elected.

Remember Bill Clinton?

I'm still holding out the hope that one day I will be sharing a "page" with Playboy Playmate Petra Verkaik.
