Should we have expected more? The committee members were just the micro units of the macro partisan Senate and House members. They simply carried their political loyalty with them instead of putting the country first. Let’s face it; we’re going to vote these same self-serving legislators back in office not just because we recognize their names on the ballot but because we don’t know any difference. Some people have short memories. You might have been used before but this time its going to be different. They are not going to repeat this again. How many times have we said and heard this? We, the public, are just as much the blame for these leaders because we put them in office. Each party leader has a responsibility to lead their party in the best direction for the American people. Somebody has to do what is right and get others to see a bigger, united picture. Yes, this does seem to be the worse Congress in years, but don’t blame everything on the President. I sincerely believe that because of partisan politics that the Super Committee was a sham and these politicians knew not to make any budget cuts. Let the automatic cuts take place in 2013, election year and they won’t be held responsible. This should have been done in the first place. The Republicans want this President to be a one-term President and once the people see these cuts, they’ll blame him for this mess. Remember, a Republican took 8 years to put us into this mire. I didn’t hear any blames being tossed when we weren’t even claiming the cost of wars that helped put us in this debt. We must have lost our own sense of judgment to think we can “fix” the economy in 3 years.
Sometimes, we tend to find excuses for the things that don't work out for us. We tend to blame others instead of taking responsibility for our actions, which only elevates the excuses. This behavior also applies to standing up for what is right. We often remain silent and wait for someone else to take the initiative instead of holding ourselves accountable. "What's your excuse, now?" is about empowering ourselves to make choices that will help us feel comfortable and confident in our skin.
