She's got the Mao suit look down.
You better get another job - I'm gonna want more than my fair share of gubmint handouts. All I need is a few strong backs to donate to my retirement accounts. RATS will do nicely...
If I were in the army, I'd ask her not to wear that color.
Kim Jon Il has bad hair day.
As responsible as teenagers.
GOOD for Grassley. Nice to start seeing Spine start to contagiously flow amongst the Republican Senators. Fire it right back at them and show NO mercy.
Congress unabatedly continuing to spend the Social Security surplus while investing NONE of it is the real risky scheme.
"Do you want your Social Security turned over to those on Wall Street?"
YES! Anyone but Congress!
"Democrats eagerly take on Bush over Social Security"
And while I do my best not to be a nattering nabob, have you noticed which party has no difficulty whatsoever showing its gonads (including, ahem, Hillary), and which party couldn't fight its way out of a wet paper bag?
Sorry...but I'm not encouraged.
Rush's recent comments notwithstanding, the libs are still in charge.

It appears to me that there's really not many people there. This a publicity stunt aimed for the mainstream media.
Interesting that the reporter didn't mention labor union one damned time in the story, when it was obvious that virtually all of the attendees belonged to unions.
Had he asked around, he might have found that they were being paid to attend.
Mid century????? Social Security will not be able to pay full benefits beginning in about 2017 without a massive infusion of tax dollars or borrowing from the public. Remember the non-existent "Trust Fund"? It's empty.
And for anyone who thinks that raising taxes or raising caps on income subject to FICA, they would only pour more money into the "Trust Fund" to be borrowed and spent and then repaid one more time by the taxpayers.
Didn't Hitler have a nice brown leather coat like that for touring in his car? ;p
No more intergenerational Ponzi schemes, thank you very much.
