Oh Oh, McLame touches the third rail
Edited on Thu Jul-10-08 11:28 AM by simskl
I can't believe a guy running basically on the vote of the older voter would say it but he actually did say that Social Security was a Disgrace. Way to go John.

Ah, I love to see this guy walking out of his lane. I imagine his leash holders are a little worried about him escaping the home on his own.

edit for link:

7. Ain't He Just
And if he had a chance in hell of being president he's collect those plus his Senate pension and pres salary. Of course, SS would reduce his benefits but still even without the wife he'd have it made

2. The Rs thought they had a slam dunk "reforming" Social Security and he's their best chance
to do the same.

Social Security should be a HUGE issue in this election; I'd love to see some senator or congressperson propose an improvement in benefits and Obama come out in support.

Even if it would fail it would embarrass the HELL out of McSame.

4. I do hope someone asks John Sidney McCain III about that statement.
Edited on Thu Jul-10-08 11:33 AM by Overseas
Preferably some senior citizen at a town hall meeting will ask why he thinks SSI is a disgrace. Because the corporate media wouldn't want to ask their dear friend and regular guy John Sidney McCain III such an unpleasant question. Wonder how they would rationalize this gaffe for their Crooked Talk Buddy.
