They did that with the stimulus bill, they brought it out in the morning and Queen Pelosi said.... VOTE!
They did that with the climate bill where 300 pages were added at 3AM, then the next morning Queen Pelosi said ... VOTE!
ObamaCare is getting fudged behind closed doors in secret.... Queen Pelosi will bring it out first thing of a morning ans say... VOTE!
Behind closed door and in secret. That is the legecy of this 111th congress.Why do congressional liberals hide their legislation behind closed doors until it's time to vote?Pork, pork and more pork.
Oh, and if the public won't really know what their representatives are voting on, they can't flood their offices with calls and emails and letters about how they think their representatives should vote.
The Representatives have forgotten their true purpose - to REPRESENT their constituents. Now, all they want to do is get more power and keep their constituents in the dark about things so they won't be held accountable.
Shameful.Why do congressional liberals hide their legislation behind closed doors until it's time to vote?
you sound totally unbiased. i respect your opinion!Why do congressional liberals hide their legislation behind closed doors until it's time to vote?You mean as opposed to the congressional conservatives and neocons who ran Congress for several years? You have no basis and no case on which to criticize liberals. We are seeing more proposed legislation online than we have ever seen.
Because they know no one will stand for the nonsense if they find outWhy do congressional liberals hide their legislation behind closed doors until it's time to vote?I suppose they could use fabricated evidence and third-party interviews to justify a war...
You do realize committee's in our government include members from both parties right?Why do congressional liberals hide their legislation behind closed doors until it's time to vote?
Wrong. They're doing exactly what previous Congresses have done--doing final reconciliation behind closed doors. It's called a "conference committee," and it's nothing new. The only thing that's new is your interest in the legislative process.
That is not the way the process worked. False.Why do congressional liberals hide their legislation behind closed doors until it's time to vote?
These are just a few examples of Obama and the Democrats pulling the rug out from under us...people should be asking why the stimulus we had to have won't be used until 2010 and 2012 and why the health care bill won't go into effect until 2013, after the 2012 elections.
They don't. Failed question.
You nailed it!!
just another example of obama's transparency. the king and queen gotta go while there's still time to try to fix the disaster we're about to be in.
These sheep don't want to hear it...NOTHING will shake their faith in the One.
Neo,...Uh, I meant Obama will fly, and save us all from ourselves. And he will make all the mean white people give their money and goods away to black and minorities and the homeless. Then he will force them to keep working and tax them at 100%, and then he will reveal himself, and the little liberal pantywaists on here will be like, " we didn't know, it's not our fault"!
Morons
Patriot Act...mmkay?
At least they are letting Republicans to be involved in the committee process. After the way Republicans ran things before 2006, anyone with any kind of memory would realize that Democrats are being quite open and inclusive.

Does anyone know where you can read the specifics of the debt legislation?
I'd like to see what the cuts are.Does anyone know where you can read the specifics of the debt legislation?http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2011/鈥?/a>
What was the last piece of legislation that Republicans supported that favored the good of the many over the..?
good of the few?
Time after time the Republicans come down on the side of helping out the few whether it be the health insurers in the health care reform bill or the uber wealthy (tax cuts during the Bush years).
When was the last time the Repubs actually voted for something that helped out the majority of Americans against the desires of their wealthy campaign contributors?What was the last piece of legislation that Republicans supported that favored the good of the many over the..?They believe that all those things you cited are actually good for the average Joe. So they will cite those things again and again, in spite of evidence to the contrary.
Some of them even think we paid 100 million for the Louisiana Purchase, when the actual cost was $15 million. And the purchase of Alaska was half that.What was the last piece of legislation that Republicans supported that favored the good of the many over the..?
Trust me, by coming down on the side of fiscal responsibility and anti-manipulation, the GOP has shown the country its willingness to stand up for what is right for the country.
Harry Reid is a low life liar and manipulator evidenced by the arm twisting of Senators from New Orleans and Arkansas. Partisan voting is as un-American in principal as Communism is righteous.
I wish people like you who ignore the numbers and just look at the superficial promise of the democrats, would wake up and do your homework. I'm confident that you too will see the fallacy in the democratic proposal.What was the last piece of legislation that Republicans supported that favored the good of the many over the..?Your "(tax cuts during the Bush years)" were for everyone employed.....income tax.
That didn't take much looking.
Clinton had the income tax at 39%, Bush lowered it to 36%, 0bama will raise it back to 39%, supposedly in 2010 but now he states he will wait for the economy to recover.What was the last piece of legislation that Republicans supported that favored the good of the many over the..?
And 850 billion to 1.2 trillion for less than 10% of the population is any better? Lets not forget the 100 million dollar Louisianna Purchase. This bribe cost more than what we paid for Alaska.What was the last piece of legislation that Republicans supported that favored the good of the many over the..?Bush's tax cutsWhat was the last piece of legislation that Republicans supported that favored the good of the many over the..?
That's not how the GOP rolls!
Ummmm ? ... Oh I give up !

What do you think would happen if we didnt have animal welfare legislation?
should the question not be why do we have animal welfare legislation and no one follows the guidelines?animals are not protected by these rules if so there would not be the amount of cruelty that goes on.animals being transported for slaughter are treated horrendously animal testing its barbaric animals being skinned alive for there fur and the ongoing battle against cruelty animals are equals in my eyes and the legislation does not protect them at all take a look on Peta's website www.peta.com or www.rspca.co.uk and see if theses animals are protectedWhat do you think would happen if we didnt have animal welfare legislation?You would be seeing domestic animals on the menus of some ethnic cuisine restaurants.What do you think would happen if we didnt have animal welfare legislation?
Things would be as they were for hundreds of years before there was any such legislation. Humane people would treat animals humanely pretty much. Inhumane people would treat animanls inhumanely. Pretty much the way it is after such legislation. The few who would really abuse or neglect their animanls will do so no matter what legislation you pass. You still have to enforce any law you make.What do you think would happen if we didnt have animal welfare legislation?That stupid yapping poodle next door would be on my BBQ Pit...........What do you think would happen if we didnt have animal welfare legislation?
Same as now, people who give a crap do the right thing and people who get a kick out of tormenting dumb creatures wouldn't.
The law can't force people to be good parents or pet owners, its not what its there for. The law is to enable prosecution and punishment for people who can't or won't regulate their own behaviour.What do you think would happen if we didnt have animal welfare legislation?the best stir fry i ever cooked was made with mangy mutt

Sarbanes - Oxley Legislation take care of Whistle Blowers, does that include someone bullied by the boss?
Sarbanes-Oxley Legislation came out in 2002, to protect employees from retaliation if they come forward and say anything about the corporation and their financial reports that may not be completely true. Does this law include blowing the whistle on poor behavior? I know you have 90 days from the retalatory act to file a report with OSHA, but I am unsure if there is another law that fits bad behavior better?Sarbanes - Oxley Legislation take care of Whistle Blowers, does that include someone bullied by the boss?SOX will not help you in this matter. It was legislation passed to swing power back into the auditiors hands and make the heads of the companies more liable for the financial statements among other things. It would help you if you knew your boss was engaged in activities to help the company tinker with the financial statements or commit fraud. but it's not help for bad behavior.Sarbanes - Oxley Legislation take care of Whistle Blowers, does that include someone bullied by the boss?There may be a "bad behaviour" law out there--gods know we've tried to legislate everything else--but it isn't Sarbox.tagalog translator edelbrock
What is the name of the legislation where FDR signed where servicemen can come home and recieve funds?
The Serviceman's Readjustment Act of 1944, or the GI Bill as commonly known. It provided tuition and living expense for college or vocational training, or one year's unemployment compensation for all members of the military. It also provided loans to purchase a house (VA loan guarantees).
Two year's later most US colleges and universities had tripled the size of their enrollments.What is the name of the legislation where FDR signed where servicemen can come home and recieve funds?The G.I.

Has your state drafted or passed legislation claiming sovereignty and do you support it?
These non-binding resolutions are stupid. Legally invalid, and a waste of time.
Edit: No, they are not binding upon anyone. They're pointless. The people who wrote them, voted for them, and support these resolutions don't know what the 10th Amendment means. That's probably why they think it's some kind of magic pill.Has your state drafted or passed legislation claiming sovereignty and do you support it?Yes! It is in legislation now and I am so proud of my state standing up for states rights and my rights.Has your state drafted or passed legislation claiming sovereignty and do you support it?
My state did it back in 1995.Has your state drafted or passed legislation claiming sovereignty and do you support it?umm lemme check
NOHas your state drafted or passed legislation claiming sovereignty and do you support it?
No, my state is not one of them, sadly. I wish they would. I would support such a move wholeheartedly.
Adam B, you are wrong. These are binding according to the 10th amendment to the US Constitution which allows the states to run themselves. The federal government has been, and is increasingly, trying to take over state juristiction.Has your state drafted or passed legislation claiming sovereignty and do you support it?Yes, I'm going to a rally in Concord on Wednesday to support HCR6, which is a bill currently labeled ITL in the NH legislature that is almost word for word taken from the Kentucky Resolutions.
And yes, Adam B. the resolutions are binding. The only question is whether or not the federal government decides to agree that it has violated the 9th and 10th amendments hundreds of times and as such has caused the dissolution of the Union.Has your state drafted or passed legislation claiming sovereignty and do you support it?
Sadly, my state has not drafted or passed such legislation, but they are one of the states considering it and I would support it 100%. At this point, I would even support my states secession from the Union. I feel that it is going to take drastic measures to restore the freedoms that we have lost over the years and clear the corruption that is so prevalent in our federal government. If it takes a revolt on the part of the states to make it happen, so be it!
