7 Broken Promises?

On YouTube: 7 Supposedly Broken Promises:

1. Make Government Open and Transparent--I'll give Obama this one. There's no way to overhaul the transparency of the government in your first three weeks in office. However, in passing the stimulus, we could have seen a bit more of what was promised.

2. Make it "Impossible" for Congressmen to slip in Pork Barrel Projects--seriously? You fail..........Big time.

3. Meetings where laws are written will be more open to the public--didn't the Republicans even have a hard time getting into these meetings?

4. No more secrecy--uh-huh? Riiiiiiiiiiight....

5. Public will have 5 days to look at a Bill--Saturday (weekend), Sunday (weekend), Monday (oh wait, that's a national holiday), Tuesday. Maybe I lost count...

6. You'll know what's in it--Have you seen how thick the stimulus bill is? I don't think anyone knows everything that's in it.

7. We will put every pork barrel project online--B U L L S H I T. Have you seen the amount of pork in the stimulus bill?!?!!

Check out the video and let me know if you think Obama's standing by his campaign promises...
