Why Won’t Speaker Pelosi Post Bills Online for 3 Days Before a Vote?
Why won’t Speaker Pelosi post major bills online for at least three days before a vote? She’s in charge. Her party writes the bills. They decide when they’re voted on.

Obama Has Lost A Valuable Thing
Posted by Dan McLaughlin So, Chicago was eliminated in the first round of bidding for the 2016 Summer Olympics, despite (I assume despite) President Obama’s personal lobbying for the Games.
