I would be most alarmed by the prospect that non-financial legislation could be moved through this super committee with no opportunity for the regular committee process, no amendments and forced whole Senate and House votes. All sorts of “progressive” ideas could be run into law quickly.

For this to happen, you will need at least one Republican on the "Super Congress" to agree with the liberals. Then, you will need a majority in the House to vote in favor of such legislation.

The House is fairly solid and hangs together (unlike the Senate) and there is no danger that progressive legislation will be passed.

Let's stop the hysteria. We all know the automatic cuts will enacted even though they are not real cuts.

Let's focus on real issues like Fast & Furious, Obamacare, drilling, etc.

“hysteria?” Remember your Soma when “unexpectedly” bad things happen and the GOP disappoints, again.
