4. Bush believes he can sell America a big plate o crap...
I planned to do a great deal of research on Social Security--to better understand the President's ideas and the broader issue.

It has taken me so little time to see that *'s ideas are so horrible and really, indefensible. There is no way America will be sold on his plan. It's utterly ridiculous and so flawed. Personal accounts lose money, due to inflation adjustments--and what if the market goes down? Plus, *'s entire foundation for reforming SS is "THERE'S A FARGIN CRISIS!! SOCIAL SECURITY WILL BE BANKRUPT!!". Hello, Mr. President, private accounts don't address the solvency issue. Not one bit.

Good news for Dems, truth-seekers and those who like the SS program--Bush's ideas won't even make it out of the gate. He will be shamed into dropping the entire plan.

I'm concerned, not about SS, but by Bush's arrogance. He actually believed America would buy this? I'm taken aback by this President's willingness to sell us a bag of crap, and in his delusional belief that we would actually buy into this.
