What we've suspected all along! They seldom know what's in a bill! ;)

No wonder so many congressmen and senators don't take responsibly for voting for the Patriot Act and ACA, since they probably didn't read them. They just let the political bosses; Boehner, Cantor, Pelosi, Hoyer, Reid, McConnell, and others, round them up and herd them toward or away from each law being proposed.  ;)

“We have to pass the (health care) bill so you can find out what is in it”.  which seems to  apply to ALL bills and not just the healt care bill.

The other day someone commented to me that "bills" get written by congressmen and senators.... Wha???!  this day and age, it is more likely that staffers, lobbiests and special interest groups write more of our legislation than our esteemed members of congress.

Heck, most of them don't seem even as articulate of those on T

I have no delusions that any of our present "leaders" and I use that term very, very loosely, are going to do a damn thing to do anything but keep themselves in power. As far as I am concerned the less they do, the less they can fuck things up. The Patriot Act, ObamaCare, doing nothing would have been thousand times better than what we got, and I have a very strong feeling that this latest amnesty bill is simply more of the same.

"Feel good legislation" is just like getting really, really fucked up, you feel great for a while, and then reality comes crashing back down around you, and your only options are to do more drugs or suffer through the reality that is worse than before you got high.

MAKE ALL BILLS PASSED BY THE CONGRESS APPLY TO THEM AS WELL...

Personally I do not understand why any bill passed by the government can be government can exempt them from it. It seems like a real clear case of EQUAL PROTECTION and I wish the Supremes would address it.

How dot outthink we got here?

Eventually, everything runs its course and people get tired and they rebel for change. History proves it.
