RedEye's Reccomendations for the "Super Committee"

Here are the names of six people who should be appointed to the Super Committee who are not namby, pamby, Wusses. These are Congress people with a proven track record of standing up and speaking out against injustice and unfairness. In other words, they won't compromise with the hostage takers. They will stand up to them and fight for rights of the little guys and gals.
Publicly, most lawmakers say they have no desire to be named to the so-called super committee tasked with finding an additional $1.5 trillion in cuts to the deficit by Thanksgiving. But behind the scenes, some are already beginning to jockey for seats on the 12-member bipartisan panel, which many see as a historic opportunity to overhaul the Tax Code and entitlements.

In the Senate, some potential candidates will soon begin to interview with leaders, who under debt-limit legislation will have the power to appoint members to the committee, comprising an equal number of Democrats and Republicans and balanced representation from the House and Senate.

And unlike other presidential blue-ribbon commissions and ad hoc panels, this joint select committee has the teeth to do something big to slash the deficit.

"If the US Government was a family, they would be making $58,000 a year, they spend $75,000 a year, & are $327,000 in credit card debt. They are currently proposing BIG spending cuts to reduce their spending to $72,000 a year. These are the actual proportions of the federal budget & debt, reduced to a level that we can understand." - Dave Ramsey.


NOBAMA in 2012.

The blame ultimately falls on his shoulders. He is the head man in charge!I did not like Bush but his last two years he tried to reign in all the Freddie Mac B.S. but the congress was run by the Dems. Yes I know he sucked but Obama is WORSE!!!

Obama is the head man in charge of the mess Bush and company created and the tea party is standing in the way of the cleanup for partisan political gain.

Dave Ramsey didn't say squat when BushCo started two wars and raided the surplus to give his rich cronies a tax cut. Nope. It's only when an African American President is doing the big spending" does he have a problem. But it's not racism. Snark

You may be falling for the right wing, media enabled, marlarky, but the majority of the American know what time it is. It's time for the TeaPubicans to go. They hate us for our freedom.

The American people do know and I hope they will show it in 2012 by not letting hime get re-elected.

Just because someone comments on the President does not make it racial that's all you and others keep SCREAMING! Was it racial when people say things about Bush? Is it racial now when you comment about Bush? By my defenition NO but by yours it is!!

FED UP said...

You are the racist. Anyone who constantly turns everything thing into a racial issue ie YOU is a racist!

FED UP said...

I'm sure you will call me a racist for pointing these stories out. If this were reversed it would be national news. These incidents are happening all across the world but we seem to ignore it because we are scared to be considered racist if we point it out!

Massive race riot in North London.

From UK Daily Mail.

An army of black thugs burned a historical building down, beat white pedestrians, sent eight police officers to the hospital, torched police cars, and looted stores. An entire double decker public bus was reduced to ashes.

When looters entered a McDonalds, the employees fled. Then the thugs actually began cooking their own food!

Two UK Mail on Sunday photographers were viciously beaten.

From UK Daily Mail…

Twenty-six police officers were injured in riots that broke out two days after a man was shot dead by police.

Scotland Yard said at least one of the officers had suffered head injuries after protesters clashed with police in Tottenham, north London.

Scotland Yard said this morning: ‘There remain isolated pockets of criminality in the Tottenham area involving a small number of people. Officers are currently taking steps to deal with these incidents.’

In a statement, Commander Adrian Hanstock said: ‘Last night’s disorder and violence in Tottenham is completely unacceptable. The behaviour by a criminal minority put police officers, fire brigade personnel and the public at significant risk.

‘The death of Mr. Duggan is extremely regrettable and will be the subject of an independent investigation by the IPCC. It is absolutely tragic that someone has died, but that does not give a criminal minority the right to destroy businesses and people’s livelihoods and steal from their local community.

‘There was no indication that the protest would deteriorate into the levels of criminal and violent disorder that we saw. We believe that certain elements, who were not involved with the vigil, took the opportunity to commit disorder and physically attack police officers, verbally abuse fire brigade personnel and destroy vehicles and buildings.

‘We do not believe that this is something that the vast majority of law abiding citizens in Tottenham would condone or would want.’
