It’s the same as with the Patriot Act. Remember when Michael Moore interviewed Conyers in “Fahrenheit 911” and asked him if he had read the Patriot Act before voting to approve it? He said something to the effect of — “Sit down, my son. We don’t read most of the legislation we vote on.”
Found it — it’s actually in the trailer for the film. Go to 1:01 in. Just so no one thinks this is anything new, or that Conyers is the only one not reading legislation. He’s just one of the few honest enough to admit it.
