PING!

Death more like it.

If someone needs vital medicine and SS is their only income, people may die.

President Obama has issued his debt threat: No Social Security for you! Unless the Rethugs agree to raise the debt ceiling by August 2, Obama is threatening to withhold SS checks. That's right, Mr. President, make an empty threat designed to scare seniors sh*tless, in order to get your way! Such leadership! So, is this brilliant political strategy or irresponsible scare tactics?

Here are Obama’s thoughts on the debt limit in 2006, when he voted against increasing the ceiling:

The fact that we are here today to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the U.S. Government can’t pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government’s reckless fiscal policies.

… Increasing America’s debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that ‘the buck stops here. Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better.

My idea for dealing with our spending problems is that we eliminate a dozen or so expensive job killing regulatory agencies. People moving into the workforce would no longer be required pay into social security. Those exiting the workforce would get what is owed from the money saved by the elimination of the regulatory agencies. Plus such a plan would make it easier to slash welfare rolls.

Inside of 15 years we could probably completely eliminate involuntary SS.

Hmm, I like it. But the government wouldn't have their personal piggy bank anymore.

They use that money for foreigners/illegals and everything else but what it was designed for. They wouldn't give that up. IMO

[Texas Eagle]

He is the POTUS.

Minus the TU.

Apparently, IOKIODI. (It's O.K if Obama does it.)

IOKIOHOASDI

Soon it will look like the streets of Calcutta the way things are going

O's Calcutta!

[FlingWingFlyer]

If no deal by Aug. 2, Obama can't guarantee won't allow Social Security checks to go out.

The boy needs a big win over the GOOBERS on the debt ceiling in order to get reelected. Screw the Americans. He's a Kenyan and could care less about old, American fogies and their Social Security checks.

[mikrofon]

some of us seniors know we are about to be put out to slaughter through no fault of Obama.

[Grizzled Bear]

During President Reagan's years, the libs ceaselessly claimed old people were forced to eat cat food.

We need to push the message that under Obama, old people can't afford to eat cat food!

[JimmyMc]

If no checks go out, we will not have to wait until 1012 for this guy to go. Somehow this guy can still afford his 50th birthday extravaganza.

[GeronL]

Has anyone considered the possibility that this guy hates America enough to choose to default on purpose and to stop the checks and food stamps?

They want anarchy and revolution and it would be one way to make it happen faster.

I wouldn’t be surprised at all. They would surely see that the Republicans
took the blame.

But a lot of people no better. It’s not like the past when we had to communicate with drums.

[TribalPrincess2U]

Really. Who is it that has the the money again? /s

No wonder the blue states are in such bad shape. 0’s draining them dry, plus all their BIG donors. You know, those big business donors that the left accuse the right of having.

[The DUAC Militia is drilling as we speak. In an undisclosed location somewhere on Skins's Island, the primitives are applying war paint and sharpening their sticks. Drums are beating rhythmically, as campfires are being lit. "Re-vo-LU-tion, re-vo-LU-tion," the drums call out. . . .]

Just for you.
