The Supreme Court has decided that a law banning partial birth abortion is constitutional. Predictably, Senator Harry Reid, the majority leader, is upset about this. The only thing that is curious about his reaction is that he voted for the law. Maybe he didn't realize what he was voting on. He once commented on how poorly written Clarence Thomas' opinions were. But when pressed for examples it became obvious he hadn't actually read any. Maybe, like Chauncey Gardiner, he doesn't read. Chauncey, of course, didn't know how to read. I'm pretty certain Senator Reid knows how, but he is probably so busy protecting the public from the evil Republicans and raising money for his next election campaign that he doesn't have time to read the laws he is passing. It's unfair to make an example of him because just watching the news reveals that Legislators don't know what is in the bills they pass. For example, has any one person actually read the thousands of pages in the tax code?
