Here is video of House Republican Leader John Boehner thundering today on the House floor at his colleagues, "Not one member of this body has read" the 1100 page Stimulus Bill. Boehner dramatically holds up the 1100 page bill as he says it and then throws it to the floor.

The House voted to pass the bill 246-183. No Republicans voted for it, and seven Democrats voted against it. . . . (Watch Video)

That’s because the majority is a bunch of illiterate morons who can’t read.

Here's the dirty little secret.

None of them EVER actually read Bills.

None of them.

That's why they have a staff, theoretically, to break down the bills and prepare a synopsis of its contents. I want to know about the Stealth provision buried in its pages. Has Spechter “taken care of it” yet? Are we headed for socialized medicine? I want answers.

You obviously don’t know much about Boehner. If you did you wouldn’t offer up that juvenile commment, especially here where he is 100% on target.

Sheesh, and we wonder why we lose elections to the idiots on the Left....

"Has Spechter “taken care of it” yet?"

I just hope that when Specter's prostrate cancer flairs up again he is told that we don't have the money to waste medical resources on a 79 year old.

“He’s the one who said he could work well with 0bama.”

Boehner probably could work well with Zero. That being said, I am glad there is video of Boehner saying that no one read the Stimulus Bill. It just took away the Dems excuse when it fails. They won’t be able to blame Republicans.

Just as I belong to a Church (Catholic) that is not without blemish, I also belong to a party that it is not without blemish.

Truth is we’re all sinners. Because man is not perfect, neither are the institutions made by man.

I’m a realist who accepts this simple truth. There is nothing perfect in life, least of all politics.

I really am very concerned about what’s buried in this thing. The money is bad enough, but the social engineering is beyond fascism.
