I do think that any administration that even whispered about getting rid of SS would be thrown out in a heart beat. Americans support it in large numbers

Well that's the difference between cowardly politicians and someone that stands up for what's right. I'm sick and tired of this lily livered excuse of representation at all levels in the national government. I would rather vote for a politician that knows full well they're only going to be in office for one term and will do their job than someone that is going to stay, protect their job, and pander for more votes.

Bush- American people are wondering why we can't get energy bill...social security....he'll give credit to both parties when they get something done.

Reporter-came to change tone...partison..danger of spending all capitol so can't get anything done

Bush-class action reform...budget agreement...progress being made...social security hasn't been discussed for 20 years. They thought they had it fixed, here we are again. Grandparent you'll get your check but your grandchildren will have a hell of a price to pay.

mentions 18 % payroll tax if it isn't fixed. That is really breathtaking to me.

Thanks for #520, and proving you don't have a clue.

Childish response.

Here's a good article that lists some of the work President Bush is doing on our borders.

http://www.washtimes.com/national/20040112-123619-8557r.htm

I'd say the man has a rather full plate, all of us don't agree with the Presidenet on all the issues, but one thing you can't seriously complain about is that he isn't working hard on all fronts. This president is not coasting through his second term, he wants to solve problems, he's promised us that, and this man keeps his promises.

Oh, you asked about the president on deficits. Here ya go:

My W bona fides can not be in doubt, but I have to take issue with:

"I have to say that President Bush is doing SO great tonight..."

DUDE- pass what ever you are smoking. This press conference is a bust. His speaking has been horrible, jokes flat (and attempts at humor), nothing fluid. W is not convincing anyone on social security, judges, or Iraq. Does not sounds strong at all - stutters. And he should not have called President Putin by his first name "Vladimir." Bad form.

Sorry - gotta call them like I see them.

Clinton, now that man could do a press conference. Yeah, everything he said was a lie, but he could sell them.

Thank you. Why is so taboo to say that Sosh Security was a bad idea from the get-go? WHY is it so sacrosanct? Makes me hopping mad (and I have a bad knee!).
