National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform Release

[Heracles 417]

What happened to all of those teaparty clowns who entered office on the premise of 'reducing the debt'? Hello..... anybody home?

I thought all of the recommendations were quite reasonable, yet the Dems decried murder.

You want them to sign on before they take office in January?

Why didn't the commission do this months ago?

In Australia, they kick the bums out the night of the election.

Don't hold your breath on this one. I have filed this under "not gonna happen" already. There's a lot of good stuff in there but the bottom line is that measured on GDP, the fed have never collected so little and spent so much. Both sides of the equation will have to give - i.e. more revenues and less spending. GOP will fight tooth and nail on the former - they're already doing that - and the Dems will fight tooth and nail on the latter - that's already happening as well. Gridlock is guaranteed and the country will continue to slide. On the account of both major political parties.

Ain't that the bloody truth. While both sides play games and stick to party ideology, down and down she goes.

The rest pull a spook and prefer to hate the messenger.
