No one had time to read the ACA before voting, yet Pelosi claims drafting was "transparent"

If you're a college student you were around ten years old when Obamacare was passed (March 23, 2010). So you have no idea how horribly the Democrats lied to get it passed.  Not a single senator or representative had time to read the 2,200-page monster, and all any of them knew about what it contained came from Dem leaders, Pelosi and Harry Reid.

In fact, lots of language was inserted at the last minute, literally on hand-written notes, and not a single congresscreep had any chance to read those huge chunks of pork.  But no matter, citizen:  Pelosi assured Americans all was perfectly "transparent."

Oh wait...before video cameras Pelosi was asked what the bill actually said.  Her reply?  "We have to pass the bill to see what it contains."  Seriously.

But seven years after the Dems rammed it through--without a single GOP vote--Pelosi is trying to rewrite history, claiming the ACA "resulted from one of the most transparent drafting processes in recent memory."

Seriously, she actually said that.  Apparently she's forgotten her videotaped speech saying "We have to pass the bill to see what it contains."  Wow.
