(vanity) Let's get this straight

Let me get this straight. We're going to get a health care plan shoved down our throats that is written by a committee whose head says he doesn't understand it, passed by a Congress that hasn't read it but exempts themselves from it, signed by a president who smokes and also hasn't read it, with funding administered by a treasury chief who didn't pay his taxes, overseen by a surgeon general who is obese, and financed by a country that's nearly broke.

What possibly could go wrong?

This might be a good time to remind people to lay off the vanities until the website finds itself in order.

You’ll notice soon enough, unless something’s happened in the past few minutes.

I’m beginning to wonder: are there ANY major issues where at least part of the governing class is implementing the will of a majority of its constituents?

passed by a Congress that hasn't read it but exempts themselves from it

Why are they allowed to do that? They should have to suffer the same health care system that we do.

because they can..the same reason they vote themselves pay raises year after year, even though they have a very poor record of accomplishing anything. It's about power and wealth, being in line for lobbyist handouts.....please the upper long time “controllers” of both parties gets you a seat on some committee, where you make more money.
If you vote your conscious or your constituents wishes against the parties leadership....you are automatically reduced in your ability to get anything done. If you become a “maverick” and fight them, you don't get the financial backing of the party for reelection, and they support some clown who vows to follow the party leadership
