Obvious manipulation here - They want to draw you in with the Obama instructed to mislead Americans angle - but then throw curve of SS is part of the deficit problem. Bullshit. SS is not welfare. People PAY into SS. That was a lame bait and switch - only an idiot would fall for it

Dog whistle? Only they understood it? What is actually meant by this?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 50667838


Never heard the term before, but I'm guessing he means that Social Security is such a hot button for Obama's voters, that it's best not to even talk about it, as it would set them off like a dog that just got hit with a whistle. We used to call it a "third rail," because it's like the third rail of a subway track, the one that the electricity runs through. To touch it would be to suggest that, since SS is contributing to the debt, that we ought to do something about it, and woe to the man who suggests that we do something about Social Security.

What is so hard to do about it? Just kick all the people that are drawing it and didn't pay into it off....problem solved except for the millions of illegals and welfare lazy.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 54356332


As far as I know if you have not paid into SS you can't draw on it. Look it up.

Well well.. now that this has come out there is no way that one can rule out the possibility that similar instances took place with the Benghazi scandal.

Did the Whitehouse issue the talking points for Susan Rice?

As if we all don't know by now.

If they didn't then why in the world did Obama himself go on for over 2 weeks publicly repeating that narrative?

He even apologized to the Muslim world for the You tube video.

The ship is raining debris.

Tim Geithner takes his orders from Wall Street. So does Obama. The bankers control everything.

I trust that fucking jew asshole about as much as I trust the negro to deliver the truth.

My dad told me not long ago about Donnie Rumsfeld's book. Apparently everything that went wrong at the Pentagon for the 8 fucking years he was there, in charge, was the fault of everybody but him. Typical neocon, it's always somebody else's fault. This fucking jew Geithner is a neoclown of the same type.

Geithner's father and Obama's grandmother were BFF's.

And AC, that's bullshit. SS has been losing money for years. Sure, it takes in some money, but it pays out a lot more.

Timmy boy is a f-ing Schmuck. He's been preparing his mea culpa for years.
 Quoting: KarinZa.


Here is an article from a few years back.
Full of "We need financial reform." and "If we had had regulations in place (before I was Treas. Sec.) then maybe the crisis wouldn't have been so bad."

Btw...to the poster who wondered where Timmy's been lately?

He's been president at the PE Firm Warburg Pincus. Several of their investments received TARP money.
