Finance Committee Democrat Won’t Read Text of Health Bill, Says Anyone Who Claims They’ll Understand It ‘Is Trying to Pull the Wool Over Our Eyes’

Sen. Thomas Carper (D.-Del.), a member of the Senate Finance Committee, told CNSNews.com that he does not “expect” to read the actual legislative language of the committee’s health care bill because it is “confusing” and that anyone who claims they are going to read it and understand it is fooling people.

“I don’t expect to actually read the legislative language because reading the legislative language is among the more confusing things I’ve ever read in my life,” Carper told CNSNews.com.

Most legal documents are difficult to read, but if a politician doesn't have the ability to decipher it then how the fuck can they vote on something they don't understand? Seriously!

Quite simple actually. They just wing it, as this lame duck congress has been doing since the dems took the majority.
Sad really.

Senator Jeff Bingaman (D-N.M.), who sits on the committee, told CNSNews.com on Thursday that the panel was just following its standard practice in working with a “plain language description” of the bill rather than an actual legislative text.

“It’s not just conceptual, it’s a plain language description of the various provisions of the bill is what the Senate Finance Committee has always done when it passes legislation and that is turned into legislative language which is what is presented to the full Senate for consideration,” said Bingaman.

But Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas), who also serves on the committee, said the descriptive language the committee is working with is not good enough because things can get slipped into the legislation unseen.

“The conceptual language is not good enough,” said Cornyn. “We’ve seen that there are side deals that have been cut, for example, with some special interest groups like the hospital association to hold them harmless from certain cuts that would impact how the CBO scores the bill or determines cost. So we need to know not only the conceptual language, we need to know the detailed legislative language, and we need to know what kind of secret deals have been cut on the side which would have an impact on how much this bill is going to cost and how it will affect health care in America.”

Don't ask, don't tell.

How many other bills have they not read? All of them? No wonder they are so afraid of the town hall protesters. Their fraud and deceit has been exposed.

Well, Obama himself stated that he didn't read the stimulus bill before he signed the executive order so, basically this is the way it's going to go on ALL bills.
Sad really.

Make these fricken morons use this doomed healthcare program they are forcing upon the citizens of the United States. I bet then they would read it and understand how bad this healthcare program is.
