For a point of discussion, here's a take on the Toomey proposal to give the supercommittee Republican proposals perspective:

OK you're right, I should have expanded on the entire proposal and what revenue is generated by it in the closing of loopholes. It's illuminating the lies the media is foisting on the populace, in support of Democrat strategic schemes, about the necessity, or obligation if you will, of Congress to approve tax hikes with the argument that you cannot raise enough revenue otherwise, even with the evidence of this plan right in front of their face.

I forget that not everyone has been following these developments. It's just that the earned salary threshold to trigger this elimination of the mortgage tax deduction caught my fancy. It almost enough to make you forget what else they're saying, and I'm a little guilty of that.
