Steny says Health Care Bill Transparent

The public option: No need to invite the public | The North Star National

House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Maryland) told reporters that the bill was crafted in “the most deliberative, transparent and open process” he had seen in his 29-year career on Capitol Hill.

Since Republicans lawmakers were shut out debating this train wreck of a proposal, bipartisanship was on full display. After all, bipartisanship in Washington only occurs when Republicans either agree with Democrats or stay on the sidelines.

Only loyal Democratic congressional members and staff, along with insurance reform enthusiasts, were sent invitations to the event. Without an RSVP, no one was allowed on the Capitol steps where the event was held.

When it comes to lying Steny is an expert. Transparent open process ,my ass.

Let's hope his career ends in 2010.... I'd vote for Lance Link if he were running against this idiot.

Consider the scale he's judging that on. A piece of crap that smells slightly less bad than another piece of crap is still...

Even people who have not been actively following this debacle know how big this is for the Dems; there is no way in heck the proponents can be trusted to give a remotely objective perspective.

Yes. Look into Charles Lollar.
