Are you kidding?????

I see that the Democrats are following through with their promise of transparency, bipartisanship and accountability. As the Porkulus bill finishes at roughly $790 billion and the text balloons to over 1000 pages, reports are that Nancy Pelosi is asking for commitments of support without letting people read the bill. Even members of her own party say that they don't expect to have a chance to read it before the vote. Of course the Republicans aren't getting to see it, the logic being that they didn't vote for it in the first place, so why should the get a chance to read it? Although, Pelosi did say that since the Republicans weren't voting for it, the Democrats would be accountable for it. Right.
As my wife, who is a teacher, has pointed out, it goes against one of the first things they teach you in Kindergarten - read the directions before you pick up your pencil.

Way to go guys. You have become what you always said the Bush administration was.
