There's no bait... seriously. But the truth is, Social Security reform is going to be extremely difficult. Also, Fred Thompson is hardly the first politician to point out there's a problem with that entitlement and to offer a solution. Pointing out the truth that the reform will be even harder than when Bush tried to deal with the issue shouldn't be viewed as peeing in your punch bowl deserving of hyperbolic responses. So actually I'm the one who's talking truth instead of campaign rhetoric. ;-)
