President Barack Obama used the anniversary of Social Security to trumpet Democrats' support for the popular program and accuse Republicans of trying to destroy it.
Seventy-five years after President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed Social Security into law, Obama said in his weekly radio and Internet address Saturday: "We have an obligation to keep that promise, to safeguard Social Security for our seniors, people with disabilities and all Americans today, tomorrow and forever."
Some Republican leaders in Congress are "pushing to make privatizing Social Security a key part of their legislative agenda if they win a majority in Congress this fall," Obama said.
He contended that such privatization was "an ill-conceived idea that would add trillions of dollars to our budget deficit while tying your benefits to the whims of Wall Street traders and the ups and downs of the stock market."

Oh, and where's your BC?
I won't even ask you to name your actual father.
Dumb Ass it is already destroyed. What a Bozo we have in the White Hut.
I am so sick of even seeing that purple lipped poseur that it almost makes me puke.
But at least we aren't trying to destroy ALL OF AMERICA, you Kenyan crack-smoking Islamic faggot.
Progressives have been using Social Security to try to destroy the United States for more than 70 years. It won’t be long now before their evil plan succeeds.
As opposed to his agenda?
ROTFLMAO!!!!!(gasp)
What the he!! is there left to destroy??
Yeah because ANYONE against ANYTHING the Ass Clown known as Barak Hussein 0bama (blessed be his name) wants to do is only opposing his desires and wishes because they live to DESTROY America.
If that is not the greatest fools choice of ALL TIME then I just do not know what to say.
And these jack holes bagged on Bush’s statement about “you are with us or you are with the terrorists” comment?
Its only a matter of time until Hussein (blessed be his name) issues an edict to have all of us “AMERICA DESTROYERS” rounded up and put away for the sake of the country.
Meanwhile, Obama’s “deficit commission” will recommend SS cuts for him.
ah, if only it were true bambam....if only it were true. But the RINOs will not have it... right Juan McQueeg??? right Lynie Graham???
How’s that mosque coming along?
Demonrat-BamBam-Fauntleroy lie #137.
Popular program?
Its a freakin’ generational tax. Oh yeah, Americans love it! /sarc as if you needed to know
Someone should update the teleprompter from the Bill Clinton era;
Social Security Is Bankrupt Now, Not In 25 Years
For the first time in its history the Social Security program will pay out more money than it takes in. This watershed event will occur this year, to the tune of $41 Billion dollars. Under any rational accounting standards this makes the Social Security program bankrupt. And that’s right now, not in 25 years when the so-called Trust Fund becomes insolvent.
Thanks for the heads-up, -16bam, that the rats plan to make some bad SS waves in the near future, and that the rats will be blaming the GOP for what the rats will be doing.
