Democrats would never do that to us if the tables were turned, would they.

A real story would have included something about the actual TYPO itself, but no.

A search reveals this:

The GOP bill was intended to ban new regulations until the unemployment rate reached 6 percent, but a typo would put the moratorium in place until 6 percent “employment.”

Without consent to fix the typo, Republicans will likely need to take the bill back to the Rules Committee and begin the floor debate anew. The GOP bill was intended to ban new regulations until the unemployment rate reached 6 percent, but a typo would put the moratorium in place until 6 percent “employment.” Democrats found the error and pointed it out to reporters after the House had approved the rule governing its floor debate. “I know Republicans read the bills,” Hoyer said, mocking the GOP for the typo. “My, my, my how carefully they read that bill."

If the pubbies are going to attempt to fight evil, they had best get their sh!t together...

Minority Whip Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) surprised the GOP when he told reporters this morning that Democrats would not consent to fixing the typo.

Not a problem, Chief Justice John Roberts will simply rewrite it to suit his wants and needs.
