You’ve probably seen this already, but I just saw it. It’s a real Zen moment for American voters;<\/p>\n

In reference to the massive healthcare bill, John Conyers, Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee says; “What good is reading the bill if it’s a thousand pages and you don’t have two days and two lawyers to find out what it means after you’ve read the bill?”<\/p>\n

What good indeed. That’ll be my defense when I’m hauled into court for violating the provisions in that bill – because I don’t have two days or two lawyers to explain it to me either. <\/p>\n

I bought a new car the other day, and I drove the salesman nuts because I read everything I was signing and asked questions. But, see, I’m personally invested in an automobile contract, Conyers isn’t personally invested in the healthcare bill, or anything else he signs. The Party tells him to sign it and he signs it. <\/p>\n

The only benefit he hopes to gain from signing the bill is the political capital it’ll bring him in the form of patronage and donations. Why should he care it actually works? <\/p>\n

Anyone going to ask him about his wife’s legal problems<\/a>? Just last week he called for an investigation into the Bush Administration<\/a>. So, he’s got all of that going on, so we really can’t expect him to read a bill before he signs it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
