George Bush prevaricates again -- in Pennsylvania

Yesterday (June 14) in Pennsylvania George Bush made his plea to a group of 16-year-old kids for his privatization plan for Social Security.

What the "blunt" Mr. Bush seems to always shy away from is that his "plan" does nothing to solve the financial woes that confront Social Security. All he flaps his gums about is moving more money to the private sector, more money to his friends on Wall Street.

Therefore his contention that doing nothing is easy is misleading, his plan is worse than nothing as it will drain the coffer just that much faster. George W. Bush wants to take the security out of Social Security.

George W. Bush and his Republican pals don't care how many citizens they place into poverty, or what drastic measures our seniors must take to survive, for them it is all about me and the hell with you. The fix for Social Security is to eliminate the false ceiling on payroll taxes. It makes Social Security solvent for the next 75 years which is as far out as they measure and it has no impact on 90 percent(+) of the population. Ah, but for the men in red there is a problem, it means that all their sugar daddy's would be paying more into the system, they would have to turn and tell those that they give all of the breaks to and say, it is your turn to pay.

George W. Bush lied about the Iraq War, he lied about the environment, he lied about education, he lied about fixing health care, and he is lying about Social Security. George W. Bush took the stage yesterday in Pennsylvania and shamelessly lied in front of a group of high school students. George W. Bush publicly prevaricates. I wonder if his mother ever told him it would make him go blind.
