You're one of the biggest slimeballs on FR, you have no standing to lecture ANYONE on spin or methods.
So SS is a Ponzi scheme. Well, yes it is. Now, what is your point?
The point is obvious to anyone who isn't pimping Bachmann.
Bachmann's main selling point was that of being a principled conservative - the only real means of differentiating herself from someone like Perry (who I agree can be and has been an opportunist).
So what does she do with the Social Security issue? Because she smells a political opportunity, she is going to bash Perry for telling the truth about Social Security.
Which means she is as much an opportunist as Perry.
Bye-bye, Bachmann differentiation. Now she's just another opportunistic politician, albeit one with a thin resume and no executive experience.
So tell us again why we should consider voting for her over someone with a resume and executive experience?
You go ahead and carry your little snit from thread to thread. I am not playing.
Good day.
>> Because she smells a political opportunity, she is going to bash Perry for telling the truth about Social Security.
It blows me away that this isn’t patently obvious to everyone.
Romney, Perry and others are so often accused of cynical flipflopping that it’s cliche.
Bachmann does it in the most nakedly cynical way, and her “conservative” defenders still defend her on the point. Astounding.
