Do you Hate Obama?

lol

Tim Russert.

Ask me again, do I care?

Joe Lieberman

Uhuru: Give credit where it is due…the first law you mentioned was coauthored by Coburn, Obama, Tom Carper and John McCain.

Osama bin Laden because he’s a Muslim (I think.)

Then McCain, because he doesn’t agree with eating himself.

Then Obama, because hates it the least of the three, or he doesn’t hate it.

Remember, Obama and McCain are both American’s.

John McCain…08

MC Cain loves pork barrel.obama needs to prove he isn’t a Muslim so he eats pork every chance he gets .osama doesn’t have any pigs in the cave.so i guess its osama

Osama – muslims can’t eat pork.
McCain – wants line item veto to eliminate pork added onto bills.
Obama – hides his pork under mashed potatoes (secret pork lover)

In direct response to your question, Senator Obama worked closely with Senator Coburn, to draft and ultimately pass the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act. President Bush signed this measure into law in September of 2006.

This important bill will bring badly needed transparency to Federal spending by creating a user-friendly website to search all government contracts, grants, earmarks, and loans, thereby opening up Federal financial transactions to public scrutiny. This measure was cosponsored by more than 40 Senators and received the support of more than 100 outside groups from all parts of the political spectrum. It was also endorsed by dozens of editorial boards across the country from the Wall Street Journal, to the Chicago Sun-Times and The Oklahoman.

Hidden, last-minute earmarks hide pork and add to wasteful federal spending. Senator Obama sponsored the Transparency and Integrity in Earmarks Act. The bill would shed light on the almost 16,000 earmarks that were included in spending bills in 2005. Under the bill, all earmarks, including the name of the requestor and a justification for the earmark, would have to be disclosed 72 hours before they could be considered by the full Senate. Senators would be prohibited from advocating for an earmark if they have a financial interest in the project or earmark recipient. And, earmark recipients would have to disclose to an Office of Public Integrity the amount that they have spent on registered lobbyists and the names of those lobbyists. Several of these provisions were included in the ethics and lobbying reform bill that passed the Senate in January 2007.
