Pelosi Won't Give Public a Week to Review Text of Health-Care Bill Before House Votes on It

Pelosi Won't Give Public a Week to Review Text of Health-Care Bill Before House Votes on It

SNIPPET: "At her press briefing on Thursday, Pelosi was asked whether the health-care bill would be handled differently than the stimulus bill, which came up in February. The 1,071-page final text of that bill was posted on the House Appropriations Committee’s Web site late on a Thursday night and then voted on the next day.

“When the stimulus bill came out earlier this year, members and citizens had less than two days to review the final version that came out of the conference committee before it was voted on,” CNSNews.com asked Pelosi on Thursday. “Will you commit to giving Americans at least a week to review the full conference version of the health care bill before it is voted on? And also will you commit to submitting the final version to the CBO [Congressional Budget Office] so that they can report the cost to the public?”

Pelosi would not commit to giving the public a week to review the bill, and did not respond to the question of having the CBO report on the cost of the final bill."

Evil witch indeed.
Former President GW Bush goofed on his axis of evil speech. Should have been Iraq, Iran, North Korea, and the dimrat party.

can’t really blame her, if anyone had time to read it they would have burned it or be held responsible for agreeing with it.

Its time for an intervention. Take back America before the nuts do irrepairable damage.

This is still a Republic. Socialism cannot stand in the face of Liberty and Freedom.

She should be impeached for her lies about the CIA and the danger that did to our national Security heck even Amadmanjihadi is now saying it may have been our CIA that killed NEDA.... This is exactly what comments like Pelosi’s do.

My general complaint to George Miller, Boxer & Feinstein:

“How dare you people vote on legislation that hasn’t even been read!

There is a name for that kind of action.

It is called GROSS NEGLIGENCE.

Out here in the real world, most people get fired for it!”

That’s about as much as I can say without having an epileptic seizure or inviting a visit from the SS.

I never sign anything without full review....buying a house, a car or electing someone. Why don’t people who have the ability to control our future so wistfully sign things that control our future? The stimulus bill got pushed through and was demanded it got signed cause it was such an emergency yet Barry took 3 days off to come back and sign it?

Hold them accountable.. Call their office, Write them.. Email them

Agreed.

BOMB your congressmen with phone calls.

SHOOT your congressmen with tons of e-mail.

KILL your support of any congressmen who votes for this bill.

We do. They're called 'Election Day'.

It's pretty obvious that they are taking advantage of circumstances to ram all of their agenda through before the public wakes up to the awful and permanent changes to our economy and society that will ensue. Look to California for a preview of the likely outcome.

I have to admit a twinge of jealousy at their perseverance and tenacity. I waited for the first full year of Bush's second term to see a conservative agenda, before I realized that the Republicans had merely retired to the smoky back room to divvy up the spoils, and had no intention of driving conservatism. I haven't donated a penny to those weasels since.

PELOSI isn’t a Queen, and she isn’t a Leader, but rather the female(we are led to believe) Street Thug who doesn’t give a SH*T about OUR AMERICA or what is GOOD and DECENT for AMERICA!! PRAY that Piglousy meets her Maker when she leaves this Earth, and in Pelosi’s case, there is no question that Her Maker is SATAN!
Only PELOSI has more plastic surgery scars in all of the Universe than Michael Jackson, and obviously Pelosi’s Plastic Surgeons were infinitely inferior to Jacksons’!!!
