a:3:{s:16:"field_story_body";a:1:{i:0;a:2:{s:5:"value";s:1366:"<span style="font-size: larger;">Now that the &ldquo;Supercommittee&rdquo; has been appointed, only time will tell if there will be any substantive recommendations on to how reduce the deficit. The incessant democrat mantra is that they must have a &ldquo;revenue component&rdquo; as part of the solution.<br />
<br />
The republicans believe there are numerous additional areas where cuts can be made in our ever encroaching, over extended federal government that are not authorized by the constitution. <br />
<br />
Two of Michigan&rsquo;s republican congressional delegation will play an integral part in making those decisions. Clinton County&rsquo;s new congressman beginning in 2013, Dave Camp, is one of the supercommittee members and will play a significant role in the decision making process. We all need to let him know what our views are on the debt issue and what the republicans need to do to resolve the impasse.<br />
