Details. I want the damned details.

The president came up with a plan. Not good enough, too much says the GOP. The GOP has a smaller plan that won't do as much, (but it will allow for a larger deficit that they can bitch about....).

Who gets the additional tax burden? Whose benefits get cut under each plan? I want to see the details and I want to see them now.

Run this like a campaign, call it "America's Got Problems" and give the President and the Boner 30 minutes each, (on the same stage) to present their plan, and 15 minutes each to rebut, followed by a moderated 15 minute debate, (I suggest bringing in an anchorperson from Canada or the UK) and a roundtable discussion of ordinary Americans plucked off the streets of ten cities across the country. Put them in a room with a webcam and let them discuss this via internet connections to encourage a freewheeling discussion.

Then, put it to a televised roll call vote in both houses of the Congress. No speeches, discussion or debates.

Up or down, then move on.

It's time to sh*t or get off the pot.
