September 24, 2009 - WHY DOESN'T SOMEONE DEMAND THAT OUR LAWMAKERS "READ" THE BILLS THEY PASS?

Once again, I am on my soap box. I have several boxes but this one deals with a subject that irritates me the most:

Obama and his followers keep trying to "spin" everyone into thinking that the conservative protestors are simply "troublemakers." How dare he?

Noooooooo...we only want to be informed. Informed...read my lips Obama...informed. Some of you will say that he is constantly informing us. But do we believe his beautifully crafted words? No, most people don't. Why? Everytime he makes a speech about the healthcare plan, it is different from the previous one he has given. The democrats keep changing the bill. He wants us to take him at his word and accept the bill when they have not even come up with a final bill yet. They are resisting posting the final one online so that some of us might read it.

The democratic lawmakers are insisting that the healthcare bill be passed right away, whether it is read by the members of the Congress or Senate who are going to vote on it...or not. THEY JUST WANT IT PASSED...NO MATTER WHAT.

This is insanity! I am beginning to think that the world is going mad because so many illogical decisions are being made.

Everyone who votes on "any" bill in both houses should have to "prove" that they have read it. Otherwise, they are simply voting along party lines and the bills might not be in the interest of "all" Americans.

Our government should represent "all" Americans and not just the wishes of the democrats and the liberals of our nation. It should be illegal to vote on something you have not read. As I said...this is insanity.

In spite of what the democrats and liberals think, we conservatives want change but we want "informed" change. We are not as gullible as some of you and WILL NOT simply take someone's word for something (even if he is our President.) We want our lawmakers to make sure that the bills being passed are in the interest of "all" Americans. Change for the sake of change is not always good. Some of these changes might destroy the very fabric of our captalistic society and eventually lead us toward a socialistic regime.

It is absolutely amazing to me that the democratic leaders can get away with this "my way or the highway" behavior!
