If you had the ear of the Dem Leadership: what would you ask or tell them? [View All]

[Q]

Is there something you've been dying to ask or tell the Democratic Leadership? Here's your chance to sound off and be heard (in cyberspace). And who knows...maybe one of them will actually wander by and read it. (We can only hope..since we discovered that many of them don't even read the bills they sign into law.)

And that leads to my first question:

Most Americans weren't aware (until Moore exposed you in F911) that many of you don't actually READ the Bills you sign into law. Do you think this is wise? Couldn't you at least have your staff earmark the important parts for you to later speed read when you're having cocktails with corporate lobbyists? And speaking of Moore: is this why some of you seem to hate him so much? Did it make you mad when he exposed the fact that many of you rubber stamped Bush-sponsored legislation without reading it? Or how about when he showed that not one of you would stand up with the Congressional Black Caucus in 2000 and support an inquiry into widespread civil rights abuses? It really bothers me as a citizen that few of you even read the Patriot Act before signing it into law. And what about the Iraq War Resolution? Did you read THAT before signing it? Why is it that WE knew Bush* was lying and you didn't?
