Congressional malfeasance?

If a lawyer signed a contract on behalf of his client, and hadn't read that contract, wouldn't that lawyer be disbarred?

Even if that lawyer had "his staff" read the contract (but the lawyer signed it), wouldn't the lawyer still be on the hook, ethically and possibly criminally?

How, then, can Congress vote for bills that bind us by law, when they haven't read the bills?

Any lawyers out there want to try a class action? Any federal prosecutors want to do their jobs?

What would you propose, to urge out rulers to follow ANY rules?

unfortunately, there is a lot of immunity that comes with political office, for example, the speech and debate clause: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congressional_immunity -- see also: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_immunity
