Super Congress? Congress May Attempt To Create New Goverment, As Rumors Of “Super Congress” Begin

In a stunning headline that may or may not be a sick joke, The Huffington Post is reporting that two influential Senators have put forth a plan that would essentially create a new legislative body, a new super congress.
“This “Super Congress,” composed of members of both chambers and both parties, isn’t mentioned anywhere in the Constitution, but would be granted extraordinary new powers,” wrote Ryan Grim.
The plan, reportedly put forth by Mitch McConnell and Majority Leader Harry Reid, would create a new government body with six members from each party and would be used to pass unpopular debt ceiling legislation.
Legislation approved by the Super Congress — which some on Capitol Hill are calling the “super committee” — would then be fast-tracked through both chambers, where it couldn’t be amended by simple, regular lawmakers, who’d have the ability only to cast an up or down vote.
With the weight of both leaderships behind it, a product originated by the Super Congress would have a strong chance of moving through the little Congress and quickly becoming law. A Super Congress would be less accountable than the system that exists today, and would find it easier to strip the public of popular benefits.
Negotiators are currently considering cutting the mortgage deduction and tax credits for retirement savings, for instance, extremely popular policies that would be difficult to slice up using the traditional legislative process.

Hmmm, I would think that super-Constitutional would be akin to un-Constitutional. Makes me wonder how these guys REALLY feel about the Constitution and the oath they swore to uphold it…
When does it stop with these assholes? Constitution? What the hell is that anymore? I haven’t yet lost all hope in this nation but it looks like the only way to fix it to flush it all away.
It really sucks watching this place go to hell, it was such a good place to live until 2001. I remember saying 3000 people got killed but we’re the ones that are going to get fucked. Boy was I right on that one.
We got what we deserved when we allowed that moron to be President in spite of the fact that he lost and now we allow a lying bastard that’s no better than the moron Bush was lie his hoping, changing ass into office. Obama is worse than Bush…….at least Bush told me he was going to bend me over a table; Obama lied.
I’ve got a 17 year old nephew that could mop the floor with Obama in a debate based on his “record” and i bet they play pity-pat with him on t.v.
Now this with the “we do whatever the fuck we want to do” gang. When is it treason? When is it contrary to oath? All of them need to be tossed the fuck out and thrown into prisons right next to the bankers.
