By my reckoning, HR 3200 — the bill from the House of Representatives that so many Blue Dogs and Republicans have foisted in the air as simplistic ridicule — has been available online for 55 days.
You can read it here as HTML and here as a PDF. Yes, it’s long — over 1,000 pages. But if you can’t read twenty pages a day, then what in the world are you doing with an opinion of a document you can’t read?!
It’s par for the course: more than one Republican has admitted they haven’t read the bill and have no intention of reading it; they already know what’s in it, see, because Betsy McCaughey told them.
I realize this blog post is wasted electrons; no one saying “we haven’t had time” will actually take the time. They’d rather be misinformed than occupy themselves with thought.
