Dem Senator: I Won't Read the Health Care Bill

This just gives me all kinds of confidence in the Senate:
Sen. Thomas Carper (D.-Del.), a member of the Senate Finance Committee, told CNSNews.com that he does not “expect” to read the actual legislative language of the committee’s health care bill because it is “confusing” and that anyone who claims they are going to read it and understand it is fooling people.

“I don’t expect to actually read the legislative language because reading the legislative language is among the more confusing things I’ve ever read in my life,” Carper told CNSNews.com.

Carper described the type of language the actual text of the bill would finally be drafted in as "arcane," "confusing," "hard stuff to understand," and "incomprehensible." He likened it to the "gibberish" used in credit card disclosure forms.

Bills that are too hard for a Senator to understand should never be passed...or even considered.

Problem is...the bills would have to read something like...'See Dick run. Run Dick run.' Was going to add more, then realized I would be pushing it!

Any senator that would pass a bill that has such far-reaching consequences for so many people without reading the contents should be recalled. After all, that's his frickin' job.
