Reply #9: There should not be blue dogs on the panel...

[vi5]

As far as I'm concerned if there are blue dogs on the panel then there is no hope and that will be the final straw for me.

Everyone, EVERYONE...Obama, Reid, Pelosi.....every single Democrat in Senate and the House knows the score now and knows just how far the Republicans are will to take us and how close to the edge. They know that the Republican picks will be far right extremists who will fight tooth and nail for no revenue increases. There are no excuses. None.

If Democrats do not put the most liberal members they can find on this panel, especially knowing how the Republicans will stack it then I am done. Completely done. There is absolutely no point waiting to see how it is going to turn out because we'll know.

If they stack it with centrists and blue dogs, flat out anyone who can look at that and think that the Democrats are not in collusion on all of this is an idiot. Plain and simple.
