The Read the Bills Act of 2006
Accountability is the Republican theme for the upcoming election next month. Congress recently passed the The Read the Bills Act of 2006, which will finally force our elected officials to read the laws that they have been passing. Without reading. Yes, it came as a shock to us as well that the government has been passing so many laws for years that didn't even get as much as a considerate, even if spurious, glance. "I don't even know what I'm voting for anymore," Ted Kennedy said in a low, sobering tone. Ted Kennedy passed the Blue Label. We took a quick swig.
"You see, how we sneak our own personal agendas into bills is to place small, extremely difficult to understand clauses deep within our bills that no one catches. The small text works wonders. This way, we have our loopholes. It's been working this way for years, but, it will stop with this bill." Ted told us.
