2. Talk me down. Tell me why a 'bipartisan' commission of twelve Republicrats is a good idea.
It's un-American in every way.

'Super' Congress My Ass.

4. It is being done to prevent a minority group from holding Congress hostage. However, whatever the
commission decides then is brought up for an up or down vote by Congress

So Congress still votes on it, but it removes power from the minority

5. Naysayers and unreccers, come out and tell me how I'm wrong here!
This is the most un-American act ever.
