Congressman virtually never read the bills they pass bro. Same with the Bush Administration.

Then the bill sat there for 3 days while the President palled around and spent Valentines' Day with Michelle in an expensive Chicago restaurant - on the taxpayer's dime.
There was no hurry to sign the bill. The only hurry was to get it past Congress before anybody had a chance to read it. What do the Obama supporters on AFF have to say about this?

First, anything you want to bet it wasn't on the tax payer's dime. Did you know that the food and provisions in the White House aren't even paid for...the President has to budget it out of his salary?
Second, it's not all that surprising that he let the bill sit to cool for a day or two. With the actions he's taken regarding Afghanistan he was in several high level national security meetings. That's hardly paling around.
Thirdly, it's refreshing to see a President place his marriage as a high priority on his list.
