re: #535 SixDegrees

To be fair, 0bama shouldn’t be expected to be familiar with the bill’s details yet, as it is still being drafted and will certainly change substantially before it ever gets out of committee, let alone what may happen to it once on the floor. Such details aren’t his concern until the bill passes both houses and lands on his desk for a signature, or a veto.

At that point, he damn well better know what he’s signing. But right now, members of the House are the ones who should be charged with knowing that information, not the President.

Normally, that would be true, but I seriously doubt that much having to do with his administration’s self-described “signature issue” legislation happens without White House consultation and/or direction.
