What Plan?!

This is getting tiring. President Bush has not presented a plan. Once again, he has the country divided and fearful by chanting a message of privitization. What the heck is John McCain talking about?

"President Bush and Sen. John McCain put on another showing Tuesday of their good-cop, bad-cop routine on Social Security, trying to prod Democrats into cooperating with rather than opposing the president's drive to create private accounts within the system.

Bush emphasized the positive, continuing to assure current and near-retirees their benefits would not change under his plan and promising that credit would be duly shared if Washington politicians can come together to fix Social Security's long-term fiscal ills.

'Bring your ideas forward, please,' the president told a mostly darkened auditorium here. 'If we're going to solve this problem, it's not going to be a Republican idea or a Democratic idea. It's going to be an American idea.'"

All Bush had to do was attempt to lead a bi-partisan effort to find a long-range plan to keep Social Security solvent. Instead, he tosses out some capitalistic scheme, that his own daddy thinks is dumb, that scares people into thinking - one way or another - that their futures won't be safe! This man is a piece of work. Can he present one plan, agenda or goal that isn't rooted in manipulation and fear-mongering? John McCain, who once may have had my support for President, has lost all credibility with me now that he has attached his suction lips to George W. Bush's backside! I don't know who the dems will have up in 2008 for Pres but I do know I'll be voting "anybody but McCain!"
