Obama: "Imperfect"

From the New York Times:

President Obama said on Wednesday that he will sign an “imperfect” spending bill packed with special projects in order to keep government running, but he vowed that it will be the last one and proposed ways to curb lawmakers from abusing the process in the future.

Mr. Obama, trying to regain the high ground after withering criticism that he was betraying campaign promises by signing the $410 billion package, said that from now on he would seek to eliminate projects with “no legitimate public purpose.” He proposed that all projects be open to scrutiny at public hearings and those aimed at for-profit firms be subject to competitive bidding.

“The future demands that we operate in a different way than we have in the past,” Mr. Obama told reporters. “So let there be no doubt — this piece of legislation must mark an end to the old way of doing business and the beginning of a new era of responsibility and accountability that the American people have every right to expect and demand.”

Oh, my God.

“So let there be no doubt — this piece of legislation must mark an end to the old way of doing business and the beginning of a new era of responsibility and accountability that the American people have every right to expect and demand.”

This is unreal.

Let there be no doubt?

This is stunning.

Obama's presidency marks a new era of IRRESPONSIBILITY and NO ACCOUNTABILITY.
