“I ‘Essentially’ Wrote Something But I Didn’t Read It”
The arrogance of Our Betters in Congress continues to astound. It shouldn’t, I suppose, but it does
Judy Matott asked Baucus if he would work to improve Libby’s image, and then asked him and Sebelius, “if either of you read the health care bill before it was passed and if not, that is the most despicable, irresponsible thing.”
Baucus replied that if Libby residents assembled an economic development plan, he would do what he could to help, and he took credit for “essentially” writing the health care bill that passed the Senate.
“I don’t think you want me to waste my time to read every page of the health care bill. You know why? It’s statutory language,” Baucus said. “We hire experts.”
We must clean House.

What people? Top people. Name that movie swillers.
“I don’t think you want me to waste my time to read every page of the health care bill. You know why? It’s statutory language,” Baucus said. “We hire experts.” great – our elected representatives send their job “overseas”
Do they outsource to India?
Link doesn’t work.
We DO hire experts, Mr. Baucus. We call them CONGRESSMEN. It’s not YOUR time you’re “wasting,” it’s OURS. Our money, too, which is why every last mother’s son of you is walking the plank in November.
Major Dad – that is, of course, “Raiders of the Lost Ark.” I’d vote for Dr. Henry Jones Jr. in a cold minute. Han Solo, too, now that I think of it, though he’s ineligible for office. (Corellia isn’t one of the 57 states, is it?)
