When challenged at a press conference in 2009, Michigan Congressman JohnConyers' exclaiming that he does not read the bills was of course troubling. His thoughts?
"What good is reading the bill if it's a thousand pages and you don't have two days and two lawyers to find out what it means after you read the bill?" Of course. That explains the failure of congress to manage its affairs in any way resembling a responsible manner. The folks who we send to Washington have created a monstrosity that is unresponsive, wasteful, oppressive, and straight up unconstitutional. The failure to read the legislation written by the crackhead congressional staffers leaves no other possibility but high taxes, excessive regulation, and debts that will remain unpaid.. perhaps forever. How can we solve the problems that congress has created over the decades of John Conyers tenure if the proposed solutions themselves might not be read? The recent video showing Conyers leafing through a Playboy magazine has certainly raised a few eyebrows. However, what would anyone expect from a member of a party which has as a core principle the demeaning of women, or any particular group or class that can be separated by sex, color, life choices, etc.. It seems the 81 year old Romeo, Conyers himself may have provided an answer. He looks at pictures. Indeed the articles might even be read more fully if the pictures have drawn him in. Fantastic.
