How urgent was Nancy Pelosi’s need to pass her health bill? So urgent that she needed to swear in two representatives before the votes in their elections were counted.
What kind of banana republic is this? The next time you hear Democrats making some stupid argument about some group being “disenfranchised” because they have to show IDs to vote, point to the absentee voters of NY-23, who were literally disenfranchised: their votes did not count toward determining who won their election.
I don’t think there’s been a contested bill in the history of this republic so important that we needed to swear in Congressmen before the votes were counted. But I guess House Democrats would disagree. This ought to be a tremendous scandal.
