Time to make the bills 1 page long and in common plain english... problem solved.

Ron Paul has a bill for this too

This guy is such a disgrace.

The worst thing is, if you need two lawyers to find out what the damn thing means, it means that it doesn't HAVE a clear meaning...and therefore, it will be interpreted by the executive branch in the BROADEST possible sense to mean anything they want it to mean. Anyone negligent/apathetic/corrupt/fascist enough to vote for any such bill - especially one that contains 1000 pages of easily abused clauses - deserves to be deported to another solar system.

The bills are intentionally written in doublespeak, for the purpose of disguising what the bill truly does.

And people are supposed to sit quietly at TownHalls and let this dumb ass explain it to them. :confused:

So therefore, Conyers, are you going to vote against it like you should?
