Democrats on the Congressional super committee are willing to continue Bush tax cuts on the rich despite claiming to want a reduction in the federal budget deficit. The Young Turks host Cenk Uygur explains why.

1. The democrats...
"They are not useless they are very useful for the rich and powerful"

When will we realize that the democratic party no longer means progress, that it's not the lesser of two evils but the enabler of evil.

7. Sometimes it's difficult to determine which of the two is less evil.

2. What's the difference between voting for a Republican and
voting for a Democrat that serves the Republicans? And hell no, I'm not voting for a Cain or a Bachmann...

3. Will someone please, please tell me why I must vote for the democrats? I'm waiting but I will tell
you up front that I have probably voted for the last democrat. Instead, I'm going to do what Chris Hedges does. I'm going to vote for the candidate who doesn't have a D or R after their name regardless of what party they belong to. Well past the time when I need to return to voting my principles.

5. Brutus and the other assassins
The American public is stabbed yet again by the knives of its
friends.  The D tax plan is actually more advantageous to the
uber wealthy than the R plan!  It is simply amazing that
people could defend any of the D leaders after this --- but
they will.

6. The real goal of the super committee is, and always has been, cutting entitlements.
The rest is just lip service to allow MSM discussion that directs public attention away from the actual goal.
