but not as a substitute for addressing benefit promises that cannot be kept.”

OK, what am I missing here? Isn’t this basically saying that people can invest as they wish beyond what is collected for SS – in other words, what people can already do with stocks, land, money markets, etc.? If not, it sounds asus l5c battery,asus l5d battery like it’s giving people the option of adding to their current SS, something sure to piss off the norquists of the world.

I think what will happen is we won’t get personal accounts, but we may get a higher retirement age, which is appropriate. I also think progressive indexation of benefits would make a lot of sense – no reason for the wealthy to be getting as much as they are now.

66. They did indeed increase Defense spending by an amount that would not have been necessary had Jimmy Carter not gutted the military during his terms. Otherwise, they shrunk the size of the Federal government in many ways.

Wait a second…how is it that “deficit spender-in-chief” Reagan is a considered a paragon of spending restraint?

I seem to recall that Reagan and Bush 1 doubled the national debt.

TB; (tuberculosis?)- The way I hear it, McJowls sung like a canary to the VC. That was not in keeping with the code of conduct.

Lefty Patriot–feel free to take legitimate argument against McCain’s, albeit questionable, economic credentials. Do not, however, discredit the liberal cause by spouting such defamatory slander as, “And he stayed in a Hanoi hotel, not is a POW camp. That whole story is bullshit, they gave him hookers and drugs, thatâ€™s why he didnâ€™t come home. he was ahving too good a time.”

The fact of the matter is that acknowledging McCain’s travails for what it is–an impressive story of courage–is a far more effective rhetorical tecnique than disputing its basis. He won’t be swiftboated like perennial loser Kerry.

One more reason to defeat McCain. If you think the housing crisis is an unregulated mess, can you imagine Social Security in the greedy paws of the private.

I am a war criminal. I dropped bombs on innocent men, women, and children. – John McCain

And he stayed in a Hanoi hotel, not is a POW camp. That whole story is bullshit, they gave him hookers and drugs, that’s why he didn’t come home. he was ahving too good a time.

What he really said was, “No New Texas. We already have on Texas, plus New Mexico. We don’t need a new Texas.”

lol good golly McCain isnâ€™t pulling in even a fraction of Dem $.
I dare say you are the propagandist here.
Comment by Guido OBGYN Lover

It is not a propagandist, it is a moron living in a fantasy world. It knows that it’s beautiful world is about to collapse and it is in panic mode. It thinks if it keeps up the right’s “happy talk” that maybe it will become reality. But in it’s heart, it knows that it is going to be squashed like a bug in November.

Give the man a break, he did admit that economics wasn’t his strong suit.

Of course, he corrected that statement a few days later.

mclame reminds me of ned beatty in that scene from the movie Deliverance where a couple of good ol boys from the backwoods of georgia have him stripped down to his underwear and on his knees squealing like a pig.

in mclame’s case, the good ol boys are the neocon base of the repugnican party.

he stood up to the north vietnamese, but submits to the extremists of his freaking party. that’s some “war hero”!
