This is really all too common. You always hear politicians say things like "Well I'm not familiar with that issue specifically...so many pieces of legislation pass by my desk I really can't review them all."

But politicians shouldn't be rubber stamping things just to build up enough "credits" to get their next piece of legislation passed through.
