This is from 2009. Listen to what Congressman John Boehner promised. The Republicans were the minority party in 2009. The promise: "We will post the bills 72 hours before we vote on them."

Last night at 7:47 PM, the Republican-controlled House of Representatives posted online the 2,232-page budget bill. Spending: $1.3 trillion. It voted to pass it this afternoon. The story is here.

When you think "Congress," think "cons."
