One Good Stunt Deserves Another

From KDVR.com aka Fox31 in Denver, CO:

Colorado Republicans hoping to delay the passage of bills to repeal the death penalty and overhaul oil and gas regulations have demanded an unrelated 2,000-page bill be read aloud in the Senate.

GOP state Sen. John Cooke invoked a rule Monday allowing lawmakers to demand a bill be read, delaying other action. Cooke says it was the only option minority Republicans had.

Democrats accused Cooke of pulling a stunt. They brought in five computers to vocalize the bill simultaneously at a speed faster than humans can understand.

Bold mine. So is my giggling. If you want to see the greater context from a tilted perspective, try Dartagnan on The Daily Kos.
