Shannon:

Or a designated time between when a bill is officially published and when it can be voted on. So many minutes per page (with a fixed page size, font, spacing, etc, otherwise we’d end up with pages that won’t fit through the door, with 2pt font).

I’d say at least half an hour per page to fully read and comprehend it, even with a staff helping you. They don’t write those things to be easily read and it’s important to have time to think over the consequences.

How about a law that says bills cannot be voted on if they exceed 100 pages with specifics on page size and font size limits? Might even end a lot of pork.

Somewhere — possibly on DailyPundit — I read the idea that a few moles among the Hill rats could do considerable damage to the Obamist cabal and the fascist Democrats by slipping language favorable to the conservative cause into these unread monster bills, which would then be duly voted into law by sheeplike Congresscritters.

Of course, this idea is highly immoral and I would never openly advocate such a thing.

Washington DC is a lost cause. Some of the Republicans have came around recently but I believe that is because of political expediency. For a member of Congress to laugh at the idea that legislation should be read before it is voted on clearly shows that DC is finished. Fire them all! Lets break away from the politics of DC and get to electing officials that actually stand for something and exercise a little common sense.
