Perry was addressing what was in his book.

I haven't read the book, I'm too buried as it is in my reading. But it was still stupid to write that. POLS have to think about the future and what will come back to haunt them, especially in the written word.

That's what will be addressed. It will be a gradual restructuring of SS. You're still going to get your benefits, as will your wife. People like my wife and me, who are in our 30s, won't have that luxury 30 years from now if we keep the current system.

I can understand your concern, but being mad at Perry for calling a bad plan a bad plan, and one that must be restructured before it collapses, seems a bit of a stretch to me. I do understand your viewpoint, though, and in my opinion, there are legitimate things about Perry to be discussed or even angry about. I just don't see how him wanting to try to save SS for the future is one of the them, though.

I wouldn’t put too much stock into the McClatchy/Marist poll if it’s showing Bachmann at 12%...
