I like Fred, but ambling wont cut it.
We need answers.
On entitlements Fred seems to want the boomers to pick up the slack but doesnt say how.
Im a boomer who has paid in since 14 and I do want that back

I often wonder...
Why is it that Gov and big business professionals mismanage funds into bankruptcy and then turn around and think that Joe everyday can do a better job of it?.
Im all for self sufficiency but this crap isn't giving me any confidence in the system

I hope he is hard hitting on China. "I call it the day after Iraq," Thompson said of issues like China and untamed growth in entitlement programs that are not being addressed while the country focuses on the war.

Well- let’s wait and see what the speech actually said, didn’t say or ambled about.
Even when I REALLY LIKE a speech by someone- it may well get panned by the press.
Willing to wait and see/hear..

Please tell me what it was in the article that made you think that. Or is it elsewhere? I'm curious.
BTW, "ambling" is the writer's word, and probably an appropriate way to describe your path from lawyer to Watergate Minority Counsel to actor to senator to actor. That didn't appear to be a comment on any presentation of policy.

"Thompson said of issues like China and untamed growth in entitlement programs that are not being addressed while the country focuses on the war."If that's all he got, he is another 30% Republican.

It was in a previous ambling speach.
Look. I dont want what I dont deserve, But I am unwilling to get hosed for the next generation
SS is a pitance and Pension is a pitance 400 and 600 a mo respectivly, but damn it We paid for it and we deserve it.
Taking those things away doubles my retirement burdon.
I hate that these folks want to change the rule that were agreed upon at this late hour
I want some clarity before I vote
