Another Obama Lie: Open and Public Debate on Obamacare

Democrats are looking to avoid public debate on Obamacare, and it includes "informal negotiations" between Democrats and Democrats to shove the bill down American throats.

The idea is to bypass the public hearings that a conference committee could generate, as well as to exclude Republicans from representation at the talks. While the latter is completely predictable — after all, only a couple of Republicans were ever consulted on ObamaCare, and only to get past a filibuster vote — the former violates pledges made by Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, and Barack Obama during the last two elections. They explicitly demanded an end to backroom deals made in secret; Obama himself pledged to have all of the negotiations on health-care reform televised on C-SPAN.

Anyone believe Obama meant anything he said during the campaign?
