Speed reading a bill is equal to treason!

Dictionary.com defines treason as: the betrayal of a trust or confidence; breach of faith; treachery.

Considering the climate change bill for law without even reading it HAS to be considered TREASON. Laws affect everyone. Surely our elected representatives MUST read bills before they are passed into law!

Of course we only need to look back as far as the stimulus bill, (which wasn't read by one person in the House or the Senate) to see that our Congress hold us, the public, in contempt!

We have to get rid of these idiots QUICK!

  • Faithofaseed, in your vid description you rely on the dictionary to define treason; however, in interpreting law the common definition of a word is not relied on unless the word is not defined in the law. The constitution does define treason:

    Section 3. Treason against the United States, shall consist ONLY in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort.

    I understand your sentiment, but speed reading a bill is not treason, under the constitution.

  • Thank you for the definition of treason against the United States as defined in the Constitution. Speed Reading A Bill and Passing Bills into law without reading them IS treason against the PEOPLE of the United States!

  • And these same assholes had their panties all in a bunch because Stephen Colbert took "valuable time" to tell some jokes while making his points.

  • What a bunch of pathetic ass clowns.

  • I think that decent hardworking people should unite all over the globe. This is more or less common in all democracies where so called "elites" have made of that noble idea ... one big cartoon.

  • Wow, obviously these asswipes feel that matters concerning and affecting the lives and well being of Millions of Americans are just alot of fun and jokes. A speed reader, really? If you're not pissed you're the problem.

  • who sponsored the bill, who wrote it?

  • america doesn't need to wake up, it needs to see through bs like this. who sponsered this bill?

  • Aren't you glad that your labor goes to pay Henry Waxman?

  • Washington needs a mass facelift of the current structure...
