It sounds to me like Obama is going to replace congress with an 18 member panel that he appoints. That sounds really great doesn’t it! /s.

Absolutely. I don’t see any evidence that this 18 member panel will recommend CUTS - they could as easily recommend massive expansion of existing entitlements.

I wonder if Obama realizes that the WWI veterans, who had been promised a bonus, marched on Washington and demanded the government comply. General Douglas Macarthur and troops were sent to prevent any violence, it resulted in a standoff. But in the end the Government did pay up.
