#2 - wrong. [*]
#3 - wrong. I well remember when Nancy was Speaker. Apparently you're having trouble.

Current [November, 2004] rules require that bills be available to be read for at least three days before coming to a vote. Unfortunately, those rules are routinely overridden by the Republican majority, leaving only a few hours to read bills that are thousands of pages in length and spend hundreds of billions of the people's dollars.
Cheers,
Scott.
