Super Committee cuts.

[DurShar]

OK there is lots of cuts to be made and some are gonna hurt very bad. But I have found a cut that can be made to start it all off and that cut would be a position in the Office of the Speaker.

The position of Deputy Communications Director aka Man behind John Boehners twitter posts. Guy is getting paid with our tax dollars to post garbage on twitter and watch television all day long.

Don Seymour, the man behind @JohnBoehner twitter feed has been paid $63,550.01 for the first 6 months of 2011 to tweet.

Refrences.

I don't know about you guys but this is outrageous and needs to be brought to the attention of Rachel Maddow or Ed Schultz.

If you got some more dirt on the tan man and his crew come on over to my facebook group and share.

Time to send John Boehner packing. 1600+ members and growing :-)

1. Personally I doubt the committee will even find consensus on a recommendation.

Even if they did, I suspect it would never pass the Congress.

2. I hope you're right but I don't think so.

Too much incentive to protect the MIC. Surely at least one Democrat on the Supercommittee will sell out to keep the 'national security' bucks flowing. And I believe there is at least a simple majority in the House and Senate who would vote to let Grandma die if that's what it takes to keep those Bush/Obama tax cuts going.
