the push for privatization of Social Security was effectively the beginning of Bush's "lame duckdom", shortly after inauguration '05.

Bush didn't have the "political capital" that so many on the right crowed about. And it was apparent, almost immediately. And things weren't nearly as bad then.

Seriously. Is there anyone here that denies that?

Why in the world would McCain call one of the most successful government programs for retirees, a "disgrace"?

Why would McCain latch onto, yet, another Bush disaster that the people want no part of?

And now that we're neck deep in the financial quicksand of Bush's second term, gambling with a guaranteed "social net" couldn't be a worse idea.

With all the shit that's been going on lately, McCain actually thinks he's going to bring people into the "investor class" now?

Between now and November?

What's wrong with this man?

Again...the "Liberal MSM" sure isn't asking any questions.
