"Lying about the law? How can you tell?"
It demonstrates a major problem with what's wrong with our federal government.
I bet it is purposeful because it allows politicians to cloud, muddle, and confuse what legislation really will do...
At AmericanThinker.com, Robert Potts wrote this paragraph and much more:
"The cryptic language referring to striking this or that in the NCIS Amendments Act is a bill-drafting style used by Congress and abandoned long ago by most state legislatures. That drafting style is called 'amendment by reference,' or 'cut and bite.' On its own, it is unintelligible, which is why state legislatures write bills showing enough of existing law to put the proposed changes in context. State legislatures adopted the radical idea that a bill should be readable and understandable without the need for outside reference."
