Idaho: Bill

I'm going to read the stimulus bill. All thousand-something pages of it. In fact -- light bulb moment -- it can be a group project. Anybody want to join me? We could get all competitive about it. C'mon, it's February. You want to be even more stupified and depressed, don't you? There are an awful dang lot of lawmakers admitting they haven't read the bill, officially called The American Reinvestment and Recovery Act, including Idaho Sen. Jim Risch and Rep. Mike Simpson, who both voted No. The editorial page editor of the Idaho Statesman, Kevin Richert, wrote on his blog: If Congress is looking for a starting point for oversight, lawmakers could start by sorting through the stimulus plan.
