Super Committee is a Super Failure



The super committee is a super failure. Did anyone expect a different outcome? Here is their joint press release:


In a joint news release, Joint Committee on Deficit Reduction Co-Chairmen Sen. Patty Murray (D-Wash.) and Jeb Hensarling (R-Texas) said they concluded today that they will not be able to make “any bipartisan agreement” public before the deadline.

The brief statement was mostly positive and forward-looking, saying the co-chairmen were “disappointed” at the failure but “hopeful” that Congress would act in its place.

“Despite our inability to bridge the committee’s significant differences, we end this process united in our belief that the nation’s fiscal crisis must be addressed and that we cannot leave it for the next generation to solve,” the statement said.

The two also said they hoped Congress could “build on this committee’s work.”


Build on what, centralizing more power in that cesspool town? What we need is a structural change, and that can only happen if we repeal the 14th, 16th, and 17th Amendments. Until that happens, we are on the road to Greece.
