Is Congress Lazy or Illiterate?

Don't you just love this? Is this the mentality of our leaders today? The restructuring of the greatest health care system in the world is about to take place, and leaders of our country don't feel it is important enough to actually warrant, taking the time needed to read and, more importantly, understand what is in the health care bill. It's pretty simple. If John Conyers (D), Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, is admitting that: he hasn't read and, wouldn't be able to understand what is in the Bill, without the assistance of a legal team to decipher it, How could he honestly say that he is earning his taxpayers funded salary, he receives, to represent the citizens of this country? Can he honestly claim he is looking out for Americans best interest? Even if he could care less about how the health care reform bill might negatively affect the citizens of the United States, wouldn't he, and others in office who also have not read the Bill, be concerned about what is in this proposal that might directly affect them, and their families, personally? Unless, of course, it won't. I believe President Obama, his family, and all the members of congress and their families, would be exempt from having to forfeit their coverage and join this beautiful new plan they are putting together for the rest of us. No wonder they could care less about what's in this massive restructuring bill. It doesn't apply to them. The President already stated, in his press conference, on T.V. last week that; this wasn't about him, he has great insurance.

Look, this is really just common sense and the practice of good judgement. Every person, who has ever been involved with agreements, legal forms or contracts, has been advised; read everything before you sign it, make sure you understand what it is you are signing and to take their time, don't rush into anything with out first considering all the implications of what you are about to do.

To Mr. Conyers, and everyone else in congress that refuses to represent us, in the capacity which you were elected, either slow down and take the time needed to do your job, or come 2010, we will get you out of there and put in place leaders who will. I'm just saying.
