(62,325 posts)only put cuts to SS on the table in order to trick Republicans into, well, it's too complex a plot for me to even try to figure out.
I am the one saying that makes no sense unless you are telling us that the President was lying.
Now you just went all the way back to Carter which was fifty years ago?
The plot thickens.
Unless of course you just look at the FACTS. And then everything makes sense. The President put SS on the table, people were outraged, it's an election year, he has taken it off the table until after the election.
I remember people defending CPI, furiously trying to convince us that it was NOT cuts to SS. Remember that?
All we can do is laugh now at the every changing stories we get to try to 'explain' these policies that never belonged in a Democratic administration.
The truth is always simple. Better to just stick with the facts and you can't go wrong.
