Bush Democrats hypocrites Liberals Obama rahm it through randi rhodesFrom a 2004 interview with then-Senator Barack Obama:
BARACK OBAMA: …When you rush these budgets that are a foot high and nobody has any idea what’s in them and nobody has read them.
RANDI RHODES: 14 pounds it was!
BARACK OBAMA: Yeah. And it gets rushed through without any clear deliberation or debate then these kinds of things happen. And I think that this is in some ways what happened to the Patriot Act. I mean you remember that there was no real debate about that. It was so quick after 9/11 that it was introduced that people felt very intimidated by the administration.
Of course, when you’re a Democrat and you rush things like the stimulus, Cap and Trade, or Obamakare these “little details” don’t apply.

Nevertheless – he did indeed say that didn’t he?

Don’t forget that criticism of said legislation can also brand you as “unpatriotic” and an “Earth betrayer”.

Great catch! Yes, now everything is rush-rush-right on through without a whiff of reading the bill because it’s “so important.”
Obama knows his poll numbers regarding health care are sinking fast; he’s trying to make it before the inevitable collapse of his brand of “hope.”
