Healthcare Reform bill vs. Twilight Series

Healthcare Reform bill: 2074 pages.

Twilight
series: 2444 pages.

If every 12-year-old girl in America can read the Twilight series six times, 100 US Senators can read the HCR bill once. GOP Senators: quit your bellyaching.

Although, since I had to read the entire Twilight series, can I just read the HCR bill synopsis?

I laughed out loud (and woke up a sleeping baby) when I read this. I had to share it with the wife. She laughed as well.

To be quite honest, I'd rather read the entire HCR bill than one page of "Twilight."

I'd be happy if they read it ONCE.

I think they should have Carrie Prejean and Levi Johnson read it to them in the nude prior to having wild, hot monkey sex in the Senate chamber.

Bet they and the American people would pay attention then.

reading 2000 pages of HRC is no big deal. just think of it as reading the Palin book (400+ pages) 5 times. piece o cake! question is: which contains more substance?
