You are right to criticize Bush. The only reform he should propose is to shut this con game down, satisfying all outstanding obligations with the sale of government assets, including the personal assets of high-level government employees.

Show me a political party willing to run on this platform, and I'll show you a political party certain to be defeated in that election.

In his defense though, he probably figures that he has no choice, given the electorate's belief that they can live off everybody else.

IOW, GWB is a good liar, but he's our liar so we are obligated to love the lying SOB.

You replied! (Gasp, choke, turning purple...)

I must say though, I was not interested in what you think about the politics of Social Security, but what you think about the economics of Social Security.

Me: In his defense though, he probably figures that he has no choice, given the electorate's belief that they can live off everybody else.

Thee: IOW, GWB is a good liar, but he's our liar so we are obligated to love the lying SOB.

Me again: In this regard, is he any different from the Democrats? You would agree with me that both parties are co-conspirators in this confidence game?
