It's interesting that if Bush had appointed the exact same Commission with the barely hidden goal of attacking SS, this board would not have a single post apologizing for or trying to diminish the ramifications of what is going on.

What I have learned mostly since Democrats won a majority in Congress and the WH, that what I thought were Democratic principles widely held, were, for some people, simply political positions taken against the opposing party.

The other thing I have learned is that those really in charge understand this and when a Republican, like Bush, fails to achieve their agenda on say, SS, because of huge opposition from the Left, they simply give the job to a Democrat.
