Have I missed something here?
The Republicans and Tea Baggers want to reduce the deficit and reduce taxes, they have also complained that there has been no bi-partisan invitation to help resolve national issues. President Obama proposed a bi-partisan task force to to find ways to cut taxes and reduce the ballooning deficit. The Senate voted the plan down, which was sponsored by Sen. Judd Gregg, R-N.H.
This is absolutely unbelievable to me. What is wrong with having a bi-partisan task force to find solutions?
As an American interested in trimming the budget, especially unnecessary projects and pork barrel projects, I find this sort of behaviour incomprehensible. The President himself proposed this task force, yet he could not muster enough Democratic votes to make this a reality.
Business as usual I am afraid. Too bad there is not enough public will to change things. I am not speaking of the Tea Baggers as an answer. I am not suggesting that these white trash, racists with a third grade education have the answers. I am saying that the rest of us, the ones who supported our candidate for President rise up and howl.
