Well, now I see!! So the President wasn’t lying when he said we hadn’t read the bill. Of course he left out the reason we haven’t read the bill is because they hadn’t finished it yet and released it!!!!

And still he’d sign the damn thing!!

As much as I once respected and loved him, I now disrespect and despise him. Quite a feat for that man to pull off.

This is not much different that what Reid did a few weeks ago with the last attempt.

Kennedy had the only copy of the 2007 bill, apparently. Reid and Co were using the 2006 bill as prop. Reid was trying to push for the vote (on 2006 as stand-in for 2007). They said they would substitute the 2006 out and insert the 2007 later.

Sessions balked and confronted Reid. Sessions demanded to have a copy of the 2007 text before voting.

Reid had to capitulate and that resulted in delaying the vote for several days.

Kennedy did not release the contents of 2007 until the wee hours of a Saturday. The Heritage Foundation managed to get a rough draft of the 2007 text and post it on the Internet. That was the first anyone outside the Grand Bargain group saw contents of the 2007.
