We can’t have three days to read the bill? Unbelievable!

I can’t believe that 72 hours is sufficient time to examine a large bill anyway. It’s one thing to read through a bill, and quite another to untangle all of the broken grammar, hidden interconnections, and external references.

The way the “health reform” game is played these days is to redistribute income from one group to a favored constituency and hope the people getting their ox gored don’t find out about it. Explaining this fact to the group whose ox is getting gored doesn’t strike me a fear mongering.

What’s the point? Very few members of Congress (if any) actually read the bill, whether or not they are given 72 hours to do so.
