And the devil is always in the details....we need specifics for a true analysis
Cut out all the fraudulent disability claims, especially Ritalin medicated kids and all new immigrants.
This is an example of why he lost re-election of his home state by 20 points.
He is an idiot.
He is support taffis and voting agaisnt Nafta was going to hurt him in florida, this will finish him off..
Social Security is NOT the problem.
Government borrowing from the Social Security Trust Fund IS the problem.
Santorum needs to run on fixing the problem, not penalizing those who paid in to the Trust Fund for decades.
Sorry, Rick, but you are wrong on this one.
Yeah, that’s going to play well in Florida and other retirement states. Dumb.
I’ll take Rick Perry’s calling SS a Ponzi scheme and calling for reforms that won’t affect those who have already paid and paid into it.
He might as well hang it up now!
Every part of the government budget needs to be cut, Social Security, Medicaid and Medicare included.
And if a senior lost money in the stock market, it is no one’s fault but their own.
Removing illegals, druggies, and drunks would be a great start.
Wow. I just posted on our FReepathon thread that Romney wasn’t going to attack Santorum -— he was just going to let him do himself in.
Good start, Santorum.
TMI and wrong timing.
The so-called “tax cut” was a cut in payments to Social Security. DUH.
Social Security is not the problem. Governent spending is and other such entitlement spending!

How about cutting foreign aid, benefits for illegal aliens, welfare for layabouts, SS/Medicare/Medicaid fraud and grants for quasi-political orgs like ACORN first?
He is an idiot. Seniors VOTE.
They will not support anybody who wants to cut their SS.
Cut foreign aid.
I’m not sure what he actually intends. The problem is NOT with people who have paid into social security all their lives. It’s with people who are getting special bennies without having put all that much in. Illegals, among others, and plenty of welfare cheats.
Personally, I am retired and living largely on social security, AND I PAID FAR MORE INTO IT THAN I’LL EVER GET BACK. And I cannot afford more any cuts in what I am getting.
So, I hope he doesn’t mean cutting those benefits. On the whole, it would be best if we cut out some of the welfare angles and the cheaters—people receiving benefits for 20 years after the supposed recipient is dead.
I would take the article cautiously, because everyone seems to be out to undermine Santorum, so it would be just as well to wait and see what he really wants to do, and not what some AP presstitute says he wants to do.
Wow ! Santorum really stepped in it...and, unlike Perry, he wasn’t even wearing his boots !
He’s talking gradually over ten years, isn’t he?
Sanatorium has just submitted his resignation as a potential VP candidate on whoever’s ticket!
Hi Fives in Axelrod’s office. The wascally Wepublicans want grandma to each dog food!
