Social In-security is no longer the third rail.

Nope!

The dems just can't come to grips with the fact that MOST people want control of at least a portion if not ALL of their SS money.

Hell! I would even choose to OPT out of Social Security all together if I could.

I know that I could do a much better job investing and saving for my retirement than our current government could. Imagine how much more I could have for my retirement if my government allowed me to invest ALL of my SS withholdings myself.

"The dems just can't come to grips with the fact that MOST people want control of at least a portion if not ALL of their SS money."

The dems are going to battle this bigtime, but I think Bush and the republicans are positioning this just right--it's about letting people control their lives. I thought the democrats were all for that.

- Yup. Take all of my SS money, and put into property, mutual funds, etc.

But we both know the reason the reason we can't do that...:(
