That's not what I have been reading. Bush is still seeking to start privatizing this in his term. He will honor the commitment made to those collecting it but have the younger generation start doing their own investing to ween them off of it.

I havn't heard anything about rescinding this promise either.

S.S., Tax reform, and school vouchers would nearly decimate the Democrat Party if enacted. This is why they will fight to the death to attempt to stop these policies.

The source of the Dems power a) Entitlements b) Public education c) Judicial appointments. The MSM is their PR tool to keep all in place.

It will be nice if you are right but....

"Social Security reform may not come so quickly. The source said it will be "impossible" to accomplish both tax code and Social Security reform in the next 18 months while another senior congressional staff member told FOX News that "it will be tough to do" both Social Security and tax code reforms before intense politicking geared toward the 2008 presidential elections begins"

I am very cynical about Bush but he will get a big hurah from me if he puts it front and center. Nothing else is acceptable.
