Barack Obama's broken promises

Some of the gloss seems to be coming off of the Barack Obama persona as people realise that like Tony Blair he's all froth and spin. The Telegraph have a list of ten broken promises, take a look, here's a couple:

"1.PROMISE BROKEN. Mr Obama said he would "not sign any non-emergency bill without giving the American public an opportunity to review and comment on the White House website for five days". But the "sunlight before signing" promise has already fallen by the wayside with Mr Obama signing three major bills without public scrutiny.

2.PROMISE BROKEN. Mr Obama repeatedly said he would negotiate health care reform in televised sessions broadcast on C-SPAN, the public service network. Instead, he his approach has been no different from his predecessors, holding talks behind closed doors at the White House and Congress."

Well done USA taken in by a well dressed, good-looking, conman; but don't be too upset the UK fell for Tony Blair before you. However some of us were warning you...
