The supercommittee is going to fail! Oh noes! Does anybody give a shit?

[bluestateguy]

Neither do I.

[PoliticAverse]

1. People only worried that they might succeed. n/t

[Cronus Protagonist]

2. So the Pentagon budget is going to be cut then?

...you betcha?

[Response]

3. I'll believe that when I see it.

[JCMach1]

5. Kyl and other repigs already talking about the workaround for defense spending

and I have little doubt the Dems in the Sen. (the usual suspects) will go along with them.

That will leave only the cuts to the rest of the budget in-place.

I think that's the Republican game-plan.

[woo me with science]

8. Bwah hah hah hah hah hah

You are a card!

Fucking neocons and thieves.

[Cronus Protagonist]

12. This whole charade proves that the entire political process is theater.

They're all a buncha Keystone Kops.

:popcorn:

4. I care deeply, and so should you.

Failure, in this case, is the best possible outcome.

[Lasher]

7. Yes it is.

But then we have to wonder what will happen next. I don't believe they'll go through with the military spending cuts that are supposed to occur if the Supercommittee fails to reach a consensus. Hope they do, though.

[WildNovember]

13. I thought if they didn't agree on anything, everything would get cut?

[FreakinDJ]

6. I knew it would when they first proposed it

RATpubliCONs want to fill the news cycle with their talking points for as long as they can

[piratefish08]

9. Recall every one of the useless bastards. They are not fit to serve in a Super Walmart, much less a

Super Committee.




next?

[opihimoimoi]

10. Real Solutions to our probs will only come if we 86 them GOPers

[Warren DeMontague]

11. No

And I strongly suggest telling our Senators to filibuster ANY attempt to interfere with the mandated defense cuts.
