Democrats Convert Stimulus Bill To PDF Format To Prevent Keyword Searches
If you’ve always had a nagging feeling that members of congress are actually a bunch of crooks — here’s the proof. If you recall, Obama promised transparency and said any legislation he signed would be posted online 72 hours before he signed it to give the public a chance to read and comment on it. Apparently, that rule applies to everything except the largest bill in the history of the United States.
Democrats delayed posting the final so-called “stimulus” bill last night until 11 PM because they were busy converting it from a plain text format to a PDF file to prevent people from being able to search it. The bill is more than 1,000 pages and to conceal what’s inside it, the Dems took what was a plain text document and took photographs of it and converted those to PDF files. That prevents readers from doing keyword searches and thus uncovering the largest theft in history.
Can you imagine if Bush and the republicans had pulled a stunt like this? Democrats would be fucking outraged — and justifiably so. There would be calls to impeach Bush (shocking, I know) and throw people in jail. The democrats are actively concealing the contents of a bill most have acknowledged they will not even have time to read before they vote on it.
Any republican who votes for this thing should be run out of office.
