I am all for coming up with a reasonable bill that can get through the senate, but that is disappointing. The Republicans allowed this to get way too complex. It needed to be a simple cuts in exchange for limit increase. This whole process of committees, and triggers should have been nixed.
No, that's what Obama wanted. He didn't want a 2-tier arrangement.
However, this keeps the debate over spending going. And entitlements will be in the discussion now...Obama's worst nightmare. His support is imploding.
Those are just for show.
