McCaskill on supercommittee failure: Too many people are playing politics
"The supercommittee idea is unworkable. They were trying to break out of the mess by being, in my judgment, even dumber — that is, creating a committee of 12 picked by the political leadership to magically get in a room to come up with something that 535 couldn't solve. It's profoundly the wrong direction."
Best regards,
Newt Gingrich
P.S.Claire, get off your sdomewhat slimmer rear and find some cuts in government spending in the various committees you serve on.
