Blog about a Blog

The blog that I chose to critique was Super Committee to Save the Day by Angel Sandoval. In reading the article I liked the amount of information and statistics that were put into her blog in order to really explain the significance of the entire situation. The editorial in itself is very much worth reading. Her explanation of the of the reduction plan, of the committee and, the importance that lies on twelve people’s shoulders can really help the average person who is not really involved in politics better understand the situation. She also was very clear on her doubts and opinions of the committee which was also backed up with very credible information.
I do very much agree with the thought of their name being very childish and I could have sworn they are trying to sort out trillions of dollars not fifty dollars from a lemonade stand. I also agree with her doubtfulness of the group and their ability to come agreements with one another considering the fact that six of them are democrats and the others are republicans. The fact that the two parties cant get past other differences, to get negotiations for the reduction plan on the right track is baffling to me. Aren’t these twelve party representative’s supposed to be the best at getting this plan where it needs to be in order to get through congress? And yet they’ve been stuck in a stand still worrying about who’s leaking what to the media and who to point the finger at if the job does not get done.  Agreeing with the author, plans optimistically form quickly or else congress will have no reduction plan to consider.
