Just a little more time is all we're asking for
Just a little more time can open closing doors

The video here contains some interesting comments on what may be the unconstitutional nature of the 'Super Congress' being formed as part of the newly inked debt deal.
The basic argument stems from the notion that all representatives are constitutionally authorized to be involved in the legislative process. Barring elected representatives from full involvement in the process, including debate and proposing amendments, equates to disenfranchising the voters who elected those representatives.
In such case, the governing design would no longer reflect a republic.
Excluded representatives could rightly sue to regain entry into the process. The judge said the he knew of at least a half a dozen senators at minimum likely willing to take such action.
Will be watching to see how this unfolds...

Perhaps I was asleep, or have amnesia, or maybe I was abducted by aliens, but I don't remember ever having elected a Super Congress.
This is not representation of the electorate in any form or fashion.
