Not so intelligent designers

Earlier this week, Republican Senator Glenn Grothman said the 'hearing' for the Bride of TABOR was by invitation only because he wanted a more intelligent conversation about the bill. Turns out, it may have been more to hide the fact that the designers of this bill have no idea what it does and didn't want to be embarrassed in front of the public.

Rumor has it that the invitation only hearing on the Bride of TABOR started off with a review of the bill from Legislative Fiscal Bureau Director Lang and his staff. As Lang was going through the six page analysis he and his staff had prepared, one of the Assemblyfolks asked him if the Legislative Fiscal Bureau could write down what they were saying to the committee. In other words, dumb it down so they can understand it without reading the memo. I mean really, we can't expect the people that want to modify the constitution of our state to read all six pages of a memo!

Somehow Director Lang didn't laugh and told the committee he was just going through the memo for them. Hopefully, he went slow enough for everyone to follow along.
