Am I looking at the wrong House bill or are the Pubs lying again?

[napi21]

Hatch is on MSNBC right now saying the House bill is over 1,900 pages long! I've been reading the bill right from the House.gov site & it's 1,018 pages!

I heard Mike Pence say a similar thing about an hour ago. What the hell?

2. No, not lying again... still...

They are getting really silly now... and all their idiot minions believe every word.

I'm still not over the Tea Bagger interview Brad Friedman posted yesterday... the stupidity is at the same time horrifying and hilarious.

9. The House Bill announced today will not be available for public review until early next week.

http://www.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/10/29/health.care/index.html

The House Democratic leadership is working to post the text of the final bill online early next week and has agreed to give members 72 hours to read it before a vote. Under that timetable, the House would begin debating the bill at the end of next week.

16. Since Bush favored Coloring Books

I suppose the republicans only made theirs two pages long and finished it off with coloring pages.
