Gee. An email. I wonder if it’s real?
Buy this woman a dozen roses and a nice bottle of wine! She ROCKS!!
Six degrees of separation (by email). Loved this email and I posted it within another thread.....my mistake.
It should stand alone;)
I don’t know if it’s real, but it’s definitely classic. lol
“My Social Security payments, and those of millions of other Americans, were safely tucked away in an interest bearing account for decades . . .”
Don’t know where the lady got that piece of information - that hasn’t been true for decades, if ever. Part of the problem is that every time anybody tried to point out the Social Security system was a scam, the lame-o democrats started flapping their yaps about some non-existent “lock-box”, and their even more lame-o enablers in the media let them get away with it, and the sheeple bought it.
Now they see they’re going to have to pay a price, and they’re ticked. Unless and until these people start to hold the Democrat party responsible for their lies and prevarications, they’re going to have to learn to deal with economic disasters.
Sadly enough in this election cycle a Pi$$ed off public is an advantage for 0bama.
She sounds a lot like Ann Barnhardt. I got that e-mail too and forwarded it to my list. IMO she was rather mild. Simpson and the rest deserve to feel the tines of pitchforks.
FWIW Simpson is a Republican.
I want to send this Lady a box of chocolates ...
I don't think so. I think Baraq is a landslide loser in 2012.
Same difference!
I agree with your post.
It’s a nice rant, but SS and Mediscare were always going to be in trouble when the boomers retired.
The problem is, that’s NOW. The Democrat chickens have come home to roost.
The Baraqqi Depression certainly makes it doubly worse by forcing retirements and cutting the amount of taxpayers due to massive unemployment.
False.
I, and millions of other Americans, have been paying into Medicare from Day One, and now you morons propose to change the rules of the game. Why?
Because the taxes collected from "you, and millions of other Americans" don't come close to paying for the services you receive and expect to receive in the future.
It appears that she has a point: Our benevolent government “forced” people into Social Security and Medicare and now point an accusing finger at them (us) because we expected to have some Social “Security” and health coverage. Our nation has been raped by thee nitwits.
I hope this post is not deleted for the lady’s flowery language. It the OWS group can speak freely, a taxpayer should be able to express herself and her outrage.
In far too many cases.
Sadly, I agree. The morons living in this country these days aren't smart enough to figure out that people like Barry ARE causing the problems that are pi$$ing them off. It won't be long before the pi$$ed off are out there shouting "four more years" like a bunch of seals barking for a fish at the zoo.
I know Simpson’s a Republican - but just because this woman dumped on him doesn’t mean he’s responsible for the problem.
Lookit, there are plenty of problems with Republicans, especially those of the RINO stripe (Mazzoli-Simpson, anyone?). But at least Republicans have tried to deal with Social Security - even Bush, for all his failings, took a hesitant shot at it.
But those responsible Republicans who did try to work on Social Security soon found themselves demagogued by the donkeys. For crying out loud, Biden’s doing that now. And although there may be some, I’ve never seen a Democrat put his or her political @ss on the line to work on fixing Social Security.
So wail on Simpson or whatever career politicians one wants, but the overwhelming burden of guilt in this case (and most of the others the good lady mentions) is squarely on the shoulders of the Kennedys, Dodds, Clintons, Franks, Pelosis, Reeds, Dinkinss, etc., etc., etc. of the world.
Obama and team are going to sell health care the same way - everyone puts in from their paychecks - and expects payments to be handled like an insurance company would do ( investing - knowing young people pay more than what they 'get' and take more health care dollars when they're old)
Like Social Security, the gov will pretend it's taking in designated dollars, but they'll spend the funds on the same dem victim groups they always spend money on.... When middle aged citizens of today get older they'll be faced with 'It's an entitlement and must be cut' - their health care dollars gone - spent on 'job training' for folks who will never accept a job - or people 'disabled' because they want to play 'baby in diaper' or whatever.
Dems have favorites - and those victim groups WILL get their money from the middle class... even while the middle class is being lied to about how the money is to be used..
Dem crooks should NOT be allowed to call ANY taxes they create anything OTHER than SLUSH fund taxes.
FWIW Simpson is a Republican.
That is what is wrong with the Republican Party, too many staid, RINOs.
