McCrory has not read voting bill, but will sign it

Pope has read it and he says sign.

And?

Do you have any idea of the size of some bills? Rest assured that very few of the laws signed by your president are ever read in their entirety. The health care law was approximately 2,300 pages. Do you really think he sat down with his yellow highlighter and read every page?

and? For the record it's 49 pages long. Shouldn't take him long at all to read it.

Still not understanding why it's perfectly ok in some people's minds for ANY politician to pass bills that they haven't read.

It really just a sound bite so he doesnt have to admit approval of anything in the bill.
Therefore when it comes election time his opponent cant use it against him.

"I don't actually read what I sign into law so don't blame me!" Sounds like a real great excuse. Sadly, people will give him a pass.

One would think you'd want your party to act opposite from the Dems instead of exactly like them. Emulating their behavior, isn't that a sin of some sort?
