The point is they were saying 6 years ago Social Security is in Crisis, they are now saying people who say Social Security is in Crisis now are lying, just like WMD's in Iraq.
When they said Sadaam had them and we needed to get rid of him that was fine and don't question it. When someone else says it a couple of years later their liars.

Before the market took a drop in 2000 it looked a lot better as an investment..an excuse they will probably use this time around..of course SS is in a crisis, Congress belongs in jail..if any private company sold a plan like SS, the owners would be in jail...
