Democrats keep repeating this nonsense and the cowardly Republican refuse to challenge it because Democrats then accuse Republicans of putting the nation's debts to China ahead of it's debts to seniors. Yep, I heard Dem's say this.

That's why this is important: A Liberal Democrat explains the why the Social Security Trust Fund is safe
