Patty Murray and Jeb Hensarling (Super Committee) are continuing |
|
to meet and discuss, but the rest of the gang isn't participating which may indicate that no agreement will be reached.
This is according to what an MSNBC reporter just said - no link.
Hats off to Murray and Hensarling.

2. Probably not, from what I've heard the Dems are willing to |
|
give up, but I'm impressed by Murray and what's-his-name still trying. Murray's my Senator and I know she sincerely cares about the people, so I assume her Republican counterpart in this is motivated for the same reasons. :shrug:

Why even show up? It was a GOP trap to viciiously and blindly cut citizen benefits and government jobs--social programs will be hurt far more than the military when the mandatory cuts start. All according to plan.

4. I have never liked the idea of a |
|
"super" committee being used by Congress to delegate the future of American lives.
