| Sen. Pat Toomey who voted against the Budget Control Act because it didn't go far enough was named to the Congressional Super Committee today by Mitch McConnell. Toomey sponsored a bill requiring the government to pay China before retirees, veterans and orphans if a debt ceiling bill isn't passed. He, of course, worked for a Hong Kong billionaire at one time. He also headed the virulent anti-tax Club For Growth for many years before running for Arlen Specter's seat. His presence on this Committee guarantees gridlock over raising revenues meaning no agreement likely will be reached before Thanksgiving. Of course Democrats are placing Max Baucus on it also and he will readily cave in to fellow conservatives. Things aren't looking good for our republic. Voting for Pat Toomey was a vote for severe economic calamity. |
