Dubya is gonna to "educate us" on Social Security! Are we really ready for this?
What's you BS Tolerance Level set at? (ie.BSTL) Well, you better kick it up a notch.
Dubya says he doesn't want to "politicize" Social Security;
And then for the rest of his speech he politicizes it in the most outrageous and flagrant ways.
Dubya often accuses Democrats of "scaring seniors."
But now, Dubya's entire scheme to trash Social Security turns on his ability to "scare juniors!"
YOUNG PEOPLE ARE TOLD, BY THE PRESIDENT, SOCIAL SECURITY WON'T BE THERE WHEN YOU RETIRE!
And very likely it won't be there, if the Republicans keep control of Kongress and the White House!
But hopefully, we will be able to save Social Security; by getting rid of substantial numbers of Kongressial Republicans in 2006. It really is that simple folks.
EVERYONE KNOWS THAT THE REPUBLICAN AGENDA IS TO TRASH AS MUCH OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AS POSSIBLE IN THE NEXT FOUR YEARS.
REPUBLICAN'S BELEIVE THAT THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS BAD---OR PERHAPS EVEN EVIL!
THIS IS SIMPLY "RECIEVE WISDOM" AMONG MOST REPUBLICANS, RIGHT?
SO, WHENEVER THEY DO RUN THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT? THEY GIVE US BAD GOVERNMENT!
AND THUS, GENTLE READER, THEY PROVE THEIR POINT!
IN SHORT, VOTING FOR A REPUBLICAN IS LIKE HIRING A BABYSITTER WHO TELLS YOU STRAIGHT AWAY THAT SHE "HATES KIDS!"
SO, WHAT DID YOU EXPECT!
Watching Dubya & his shills try to scare young people over the coming months could be very amusing.
Because the entire idea of "private accounts" is so hokey that it's laughable.
Besides, we already have a "private account retirement scheme" in the 401k. Or, is it now the 201k....after the crash, and the sad demise of Greenspan's Bubblenomics. Who knows if the 401k is even a viable program? Or was it just a hoax all along--by the rich to welsh out on existing private pension plans----which is happening constantly nowadays.
VIRTUALLY EVERYTHING DUBYA AND HIS SCHILLS WILL SAY ABOUT SOCIAL SECURITY OVER THE COMING MONTHS WILL BE ONE BIG LIE! ALMOST ALL OF IT IS FALSE.
SADDLY, THEY GOT AWAY WITH THE BIG LIE DURING THE NOVEMBER ELECTIONS.
SO NOW THEY THINK THEY CAN PULL OFF THE ULTIMATE BIG LIE----AND TRASH SOCIAL SECURITY--A REPUBLICAN DREAM SINCE THE 1930's.
....WILL THE "BUBBAS" EVEN NOTICE?
WELL, IF ROVE CAN TIE IT IN WITH JESUS OR GAYS.....? MAYBE NOT!
IT SEEMS THAT A MORE LIKELY OUTCOME WILL BE SOME TINKERING AROUND THE EDGES OF SOCIAL SECURITY; WHICH IS REALLY ALL IT NEEDS AT THIS POINT.
.......BECAUSE "PROJECTING" THE US ECONOMY OUT THRITY OR FOURTY YEARS IS....WELL, JUST NUTS!
MOST ECONOMISTS CAN'T EVEN GET THE MONTHLY JOBS NUMBER RIGHT! PLUS OR MINUS 100,000!!
WHY SHOULD WE TRASH SOCIAL SECURITY BASED ON SOME REPUBLICIAN--WALL STREET FUNDED "JUNK ECONOMICS!"
SOCIAL SECURITY IS STILL A PAY-AS-YOU-GO PROGRAM.
AND SO FAR.... THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT IT'S DOING AND WITH A BIG SURPLUS TO BOOT!
IF THE SYSTEM NEEDS ADJUSTMENT LATER ON..... OR, IF THE PAYROLL TAX LIMIT HAS TO BE RAISED TO $150,000 OR $200,000 IN 2040? SO BE IT!
BY THEN WORKERS AT MICKY D'S MIGHT BE MAKING $200,000! IF THE DOLLAR AND THE TRADE DEFICITS DON'T TURN AROUND SOON!
Dubya's attempt to "scare juniors" is very very risky business....after all younger people are not inclined to vote. But if Dubya pisses off the middle aged and older crowd---his promise of "political cover" could be problematic.
And, what exactly does he mean by "political cover?" Is Dubya's "political capital bank account" that big! Oh please......this guy got 51% of the vote under questionable conditions, and even that require a level of political lying unprecedented in modern elections.
DO I SMELL SOME POLITCAL HUBRIS HERE?
OR ALTERNATELY, COULD THE SOCIAL SECURITY SCARE TACTICS BE AN ATTEMPT TO DIVERT ATTENTION FROM THE ON-GOING DEBACLE IN IRAQ? Hmmmm......think about it.
