Tom Coburn Threatens to Have Obamacare Bill Read on the Floor
Thousands of pages takes time to read. This is awesome! Coburn goes old school!
Sen. Tom Coburn, the Oklahoma Republican who developed a close friendship with President Obama when they served together in the Senate, is threatening to have the entire health care bill read on the Senate floor.
Senior Senate Democratic aides had heard Coburn was considering having potentially thousands of pages read aloud in effort to stall passage. “If he did this it would be even outrageous for a guy who’s become known as Dr. No around here,” one of them told POLITICO.
Coburn’s office confirmed that he is indeed thinking about having the bill read.

Yay Coburn!
CALL YOUR CONGRESSMAN TODAY! TELL THEM TO VOTE NO.
EMAIL TODAY, THAT WAY THERE IS A RECORD HOW MANY WEIGHED IN.
Tell them just say “NO!”
I hope he will do it and hand out cots so there is no excuse for anyone to leave the premises.
Both Coburn and Inhofe will fight this to the end.
