What does 500, the Obamacare bill, and our Constitution have in common?

Our daughter has been studying George Washington for a research paper she is writing for her English composition course with Seton homestudy. It's been a hard, but very interesting journey for both she and I. As I am very active in the political world and a definite TEAparty participant, we have been learning about the constitution and going further into our founding fathers' historic design for our country.

As we were driving along the other day, she was telling me that the constitution that was written and signed was only 4 pages. "Wow, I said, "and how many pages is the healthcare bill?" She got out her calculator and figured out that the healthcare bill is 500 times bigger than the document that our nation was formed with.

Sheeesh!
