Kinda like Commiecare? (Check out what Pelosi said.)
Yes, we know it's anti-democratic and lacking transparency. But why are Democrats suddenly opposing that?
I guess they should have thought about that before they voted for McConnell's "get around the TEA Party" scheme.
Hey Dems, you are the ones who thought it up, voted for it and implemented it. Methinks this is just the first step to trying to eliminate the process all togeather. This was their idea all along, use the idea to get the debt ceiling raised and then later scuttle the whole super committee for the reason’s they are now spouting. Same old same old. Just like they promise spending cuts for tax increases but only the tax increases ever happen. They are liars.
I had to look twice at the source to be sure this wasn’t satire. I mean, libs complaining about lack of transparency?
The number ten can being kicked down the road is filled with concrete
Toes are being stubbed
Bla-Bla-Bla, You got a split congress and split country. In fact Democrats cant even agree with each other. The Senate cant even pass any budget themselves.
Then you got the phony trigger, the deadline is this year, it triggers cuts in 2013. It's a joke. These losers will have a vote or two on spending before then.
I notice Obama in his 2012 campaign jobs tour is saying it's a Republican congress trying to convince voters that Boehner runs the Senate too.
And “ Obamacare “ was open ?
SCUM!
Ironic, eh ?
They are terrified they might be asked to vote on cutting something, threatened with the phony trigger.
Yep
Reid did say he felt reassured after Sens. Patty Murray (D-Wash.), John Kerry (D-Mass.) and Max Baucus (D-Mont.) were named to the panel.
.........................................................
That right there should show you how smart Harry Reid is.
When these 3 were named I knew the Super-Committee was Bull S**t. A commie, a Traitor, and an idiot.
Ahh, they don’t like being sacrifices. Just like those fools who vote for communists are going to feel; when it dawns on them they lose everything.
If they feel they have to vote NO against the recommendations ( because of some cuts in it ) then they will have to fess up to their voters that the trigger was a meaningless scam, meaning that the supercommittee is irrelevent, and that the whole deficit deal that Obama+Boehner cooked up BEHIND CLOSED DOORS was much to do about nothing.
This is not an open, transparent process, he said. This is not a deliberative process”
Its not constitutional either. But I’m sure the Dems are not worried about that and why should they be? My own GOP rep isn’t worried about it either.
It WAS a scam, and all it cost Obama was a fifth of Jack Daniels.
I remember a few ‘everything congress does is unconstitutional’ whiners moved in to claim that the super-committee was ‘unconstitutional’
I easily pointed out that it was constitutional because it was irrelevant and meaningless. Congress can still spend anything they want no matter what the committee does, just like before. It's just a show for the gullable.
” It’s just a show for the gullable. “
Add SUPER- to that : )
It took the lawyers of Judicial Watch almost two years to pry open White House records on the matter of who visited the president and his advisers in the first seven months of Obama’s administration.

Two years into its pledge to improve government transparency, the Obama administration handled fewer requests for federal records from citizens, journalists, companies and others last year even as significantly more people asked for information.

Looks like the Dems cut out per breaking news stories starting to emerge. Pentagon, get ready to really be gutted now.
