What point are you making?

I am saying simply the American people overwhelmingly support SS and don't want it to be done away with.

A president cannot lead people where they absolutely don't want to go.

LOL, the Pres just told some scumbag reporter who worked Cheneys' name into his question to "Don't take a cheap shot, you're on national TV."

LOL!

Sigh, and therein lies our problem. You don't see that under a federal republic our leaders are not there to please the electorate. They're there to do a specific job. Even if that job means they will lose the next election. Social Security is one of those situations if we are ever to begin to return to a limited federal government

Nor, should he be relied on to do so.
