    House Speaker Nancy Pelosi unveiled a retooled health care overhaul plan Thursday intended to bridge differences among Democrats and open a history-making floor debate on extending health insurance to nearly all Americans... and it's only 1,900 pages!

    Speaking on the West Front of the Capitol surrounded by Democratic lawmakers, Pelosi said the House's version of a health care reform bill will include a government-run insurance option and extend coverage to 36 million uninsured Americans.  She said the bill will lower patient costs and reduce the national deficit.

    Pelosi wants to have the legislation on the floor next week -- with a final vote before Veterans Day, Nov. 11 -- which would give President Obama a bill to sign by year's end, numerous Democratic officials said.

    Do you think lawmakers will actually read the entire thing?

They don't care what it says, they are 100% exempt from these bills they pass. Hopefully pretty soon we can get some real people into congress that actually care about the issues they are voting on.
