Dems can control time

Turn 48 hours into 10

In a press conference Thursday, the House Republican leadership spoke candidly about being kept out of the House-Senate conference on the Obama-Pelosi-Reid so-called “economic stimulus” bill. They confirmed they had not yet seen the text of the bill as of 4 p.m.

Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) said he was unsure how many Democrats would vote with Republicans again on this bill but that he thought Republicans “may get a few” Democrats to side with them. The fact that the Demos have now broken their promise to have the public able to see the bill for 48 hours may drive more Dems into the Republican camp.
The House is scheduled to meet at 9:00 a.m. tomorrow and is expected to proceed directly to consideration of the American Recovery and Reinvestment conference report. The conference report text will be filed this evening, giving members enough time to review the conference report before voting on it tomorrow afternoon."
The Democrats finally made the bill's language available around 11 p.m. Thursday, approximately 10 hours before members meet Friday to consider the bill and 38 hours short of the time promised Americans to review the bill.


So there you have it. 48 Democratic hours only takes up 10 real time hours! This scientific breakthrough has turned the world on its ear. Dr. James Hansen stepped in and confirmed the data, thus making time travel a possibility.
On a side note, apparently the congress will have only until 6:00 p.m. to read the1,071 pages of the bill and vote on it as Speaker Pelosi has to catch a plane to Rome.
