Democrats Hire Speed Reader to Read Cap and Trade Bill

  As I wrote about here, the Democrats are trying to rush the cap and trade bill through congress before the American people can find out what is actually in the bill. The cap and trade bill is almost 1,000 pages long and much like the stimulus bill, the Democrats want to pass it before members of congress have a chance to read it.

  Republicans have threatened to read the complete bill word for word on the senate floor before any vote is taken. A procedure that lawmakers have every right to enforce. (What a novel idea huh? Reading a bill before a vote is taken.) This idea is not sitting well with Democrats because they do not want the American people to find out what is in this bill.

  Democrats are now countering the Republican efforts to read the bill by hiring a speed reader to help lawmakers read the bill quickly and thwart Republican efforts to make the bill known to the public.

  I guess you have to give the Democrats credit for their ingenuity, this has to be the first time that a speed reader has been employed to thwart the efforts of a party to read a large bill before voting on it.

  Democrats will stop at nothing to ensure that this bill passes before Americans realize that this bill is going to screw them big time. It is more important to them to pass legislation on the scam that is known as global warming than it is for them to at least allow the people to hear what is in this bill. In their eyes it must be passed quickly or it may never pass at all.

  In order to protect the president’s agenda on global warming the Democrats have stooped to the point where they feel the need to exercise such a bush league maneuver in order to sneak this bill through congress.
