Just Skim It

An interesting article about the role of "conceptual" v. "legislative" language when considering Congressional bills. Seems to me that the conceptual language would be preferable for a complicated issue like health care reform, but if the Republicans feel the need to continue to delay reform on something they will never read or for the most part fully understand...

Thanks Kelsey. I think the demand for exact language may reflect: 1. the important of the legislation 2. decline of bipartisanship and trust.
