He told reporters at his transition office that his package will set a "new higher standard of accountability, transparency and oversight. We are going to ban all earmarks, the process by which individual members insert projects without review."
according to the American Coalition for Filipino Veterans. A provision tucked inside the stimulus bill that President Obama signed calls for releasing $198 million that was appropriated last year for those veterans. Those who have become U.S. citizens get $15,000 each; non-citizens get $9,000.
Now tell me, how is paying 198 million to Filipino Veterans (A) creating jobs and (B) a path to economic recovery ?
Obama - you're a liar, you promised someone you'd do this and you added it to a "stimulus" package when you said you wouldn't.

The Bidenried part comes in when the centrifugal force from spinning from one opinion to another has built up to the point where stealthy's head is about to explode. One last little bit to throw the whole thing out of balance and FOOM![8D]

RE: Obama - proof he's a liar
Its fun to be on the political fence. I dont have to like anyone. But I can assure you, i have sided more with republicans than with democrates. That would be in the past 10 years. The crap sandwich we got running the show now makes the Bush administration seem like rocket scientists. And Obama has just begun.
Yeppie for us. We go from a messed up administration to a complete gunsel f***.

Doesn'tPelosi get a Mulligan for sayingthis would be the most transparent congress, then reneging on the promise to post the stimulus bill 48 hours before it got voted on?
But I can assure you, i have sided more with republicans than with democrates. That would be in the past 10 years.
I've agreed with the Republicans a lot more than Democrats over the past 30 years. There are still issues where I generally agree more with Republicans but on the economy, I think the GOP has proven their economic ideology flat sucks.
