Complex Legislation Mean Some in Congress Never Read

This week’s, Drawing for a Reader, is for Bill, from out West, who drew my attention to this recent story about Dianne Feinstein.

I wish I didn’t have to pick on Democrats so much, considering that this IS a slightly left-leaning political cartoon blog, but the current Democrats have been such easy targets recently with their authorization of warrant-less wiretapping, inability to make progress on the Iraq War, and their failure to pursue impeachment proceedings of Bush & Associates.

The Congress isn’t entirely at fault. Because nothing has been done to curb the influence of Corporations (who often write the bills), legislation that must be voted on are huge, complex works that would probably make Tolstoy’s “War and Peace” read like a cartoon…no offense to Tolstoy, cartoons are fun.
