[Pearls Before Swine]

I have to add this: Figuring out the intent of Congress is more difficult than it used to be when most of the legislators have not read the bill, and the debate in the Congressional Record is therefore wholly inadequate for divining what they were thinking. They weren’t thinking at all. They were good party loyalist apparatchiks, which is why they must be turned out.

I agree. 2,070 page legislation is a travesty, and nobody reads the stuff. I would very much like to see all significant legislation expressly state its Constitutional basis or bases. That might make it more difficult to pass -- as would have been the case with ObamaCare -- and should at least keep judges from doing what Judge Vinson properly declined to to, go foraging around in the constitutional thicket for some marginally credible basis.
