"Then I think they should pipe down on this talk"
Rove thinks he's running this election.
What's Rove's payoff after 2008? He failed on Social Security reform, so no multi-million dollar kickback consultancy from the brokerages. Doesn' look like the casinos and hotel chains are going to get their radical immigration bill. I guess there's the drug companies, but their bill didn't need Rove leading Bush by the nose.
Or is Bush still wants to seem "in charge" aand is bringing up this phoney-privatization plan again?
The blogger Kenny Bunk predicted something like this. Rove/Bush throwing the election to the Democrats in order to get the radical immigration bill through.
What the heck, only two years to go, both lame ducks, might as well cash in with the wage depression lobbies and secure sinecures.
What else could explain this incredibly stupid move to bring up Bush's vague Social Security plans?
whore-hey is good on the war, but a sissy sub bitch on everything else
there isn't anything wrong with the basic idea, but they did a poor job of framing the issue last time. never once did they explain how it would work, never compared it to 401Ks (which are very popular), etc. and they aren't going to be able to explain it 60 days before an election, so they would best keep quiet now.
