Super committee is colossal fail

As of one today the super committee, supposed to find l.2 trillion in cuts, savings or revenues, has done nothing, as really was expected.  Congress and the president have the power and the responsibility to come up with a plan to cut spending and reduce the debt.  The markets are already falling and a further down grade of our credit rating is likely. 

This administration has carried excess spending to heights never before approached.  It is easy to spend and become popular with certain groups while some courage is required to reduce funds.  This nation is in bad trouble. Much waste could be eliminated if  Congress and the president would just do it.  But painful cuts are coming in entitlement programs, and those cuts will not be received happily by those affected.  Certain groups, including that stinking outfit AARP, have already run ads defending their funds and castigating anyone with guts to vote for the cuts.  Let me say as strongly as I can -- this nation is in danger and every day we delay makes our situation more perilous.  Greece, here we come to join you unless we act now.  When I say cuts are needed I don't mean we have to cut out steak twice a week and drink a cheaper wine; we are going to have to get by on smaller pieces of corn bread and less buttermilk..
