Even if they 'succeeded' they would have failed. Everyone keeps talking about their mission like it is some grand challenge and that accomplishing what their task was would somehow cause great rewards. They have been tasked to cut a few trillion from the DEFICIT spending over a 10 year period. Considering their annual rate of deficit the last three years has been what...1.6 trillion...they are TELLING us...that 15.5 trillion dollar debt? You aint seen nothin yet. We are handwringing about a few trillion in savings over 10 years while they will add (if current trends continue and without MASSIVE medicare/medicaid and other spending reforms) at least 10 trillion. But hey...at least it wont be 12 trillion.
Go back to sleep folks...keep supporting both parties.
