An article “Debt will still grow, even with recovery” is sub headed “Congress rejected a bipartisan deficit commission that could have forced painful steps on tax increases and entitlements.” The article states “The commission would have been modeled o none that makes military base-closing decisions, forcing Congress to take up or down votes.”
WATCHDOG: Ironically, had all members who originally sponsored the bill voted for it, it would have passed. This is testimony to the hypocrisy of our elected representatives and, in most cases, to their subordinating the welfare of the nation to bi-partisanship. Many would rather have this country fail than the Obama Administration succeed at anything. Growl!
