Raise my taxes in some 'supercommittee/SuperCongress', and odds are I will have been taxed with no effective representation at all.

Wrong.

Everyone needs to stop acting like liberals and spout hysteria that is not based in fact.

While I do not like this "Super Congress", no taxes will be increased unless a majority in the House votes for it, which means YOUR representative will get to say "yes" or "no".

The asinine statements flying around here make FReepers look like idiots.

I think we would do well to retain the ability to fillibuster measures. In the absence of that, we have given up a strategic weapon. Rubberstamping some 'done deal' isn't my idea of representation, unless, of course, I aproove of the deal.

As if Washington D.C. needs another backroom to conduct business in.

YOUR representative will get to say "yes" or "no".

And that's ALL he'll get to say.
