A monster was spawned out of the debt ceiling deal.  The idea of a "Supercommittee" composed of just politicians (Dems or Repubs) is something that will come back to bite us in the butt.  What a bad, bad idea.

Why in the hell didn't they stock this committee with people that know how to reduce debt, instead of people that got us into this mess in the first place?

How about using some grass roots ideas from people that have successfully reduced debt and managed their states and cities so well that they are thriving?  There are some bright spots like that around the nation.  Why don't we study successes?  What makes anyone think that these Senators and Congressmen know what to do that is best for the long term interests of our country, or even care about the long term interests of our country?

It is truly sad.

missed your calling ya did. They need good advisors like this.

Sounds like the country needs a bad, bad bowel-movement to get rid of these shit for brains...

We had a pretty good bowel movement last election and now we are more constipated than ever.   I think it's a diet problem.   We're fed too much garbage.   And like they say, garbage in garbage out.
