Reply #7: When will the Congress wise up to this hurry hurry tactic? [View All]

The whole purpose is so noone can get a good look at the consequences of these bills.

"THE SECOND BIGGEST SCAM IN WASHINGTON: And another thing about that Medicare "reform" bill: Since CBO didn't officially score the bill until yesterday afternoon, the negotiators who wrote the bill didn't publish final language until yesterday. Nevertheless, Republican congressional leaders are pushing to hold votes before Thanksgiving. House leaders are trying to hold their votes today. (The only reason they haven't yet brought the measure to the floor is that they don't yet have the numbers to pass it."


"So much so that, according to this same source, White House officials have spent the entire day on the phone trying to coax votes out of Democrats."
