AP Headline: "Obama claims GOP trying to destroy Social Security." CLAIMS????


No, Republicans want to SAVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!

WTF!!!!!!!! (I have had it with the main stream media and their bullshit feigned ignorance.)
President Barack Obama used the anniversary of Social Security to trumpet Democrats' support for the popular program and accuse Republicans of trying to destroy it.
What, without proof??? My head is hurting...

Most Republicans, in fact, are wary of touching that idea, because Social Security is virtually sacrosanct to voters, particularly seniors.
NO, Republican AREN'T WARY. NO, NO, NO, NO, NO.....

Nonetheless, Democrats have been able to seize on the issue because of a proposal by Rep. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin, the top Republican on the House Budget Committee, that would allow younger people to put Social Security money into personal accounts.
But isn't that proof? Isn't that more than "accusing," or "claiming?" They really want to do away with Social Security as we know it. REALLY!!!!! This is AP news acting like this is all a surprise. Just as ridiculous is how quick Republicans were to give up on manufacturing in this country, sending corporate profits to Japan and Germany when they opposed the auto bailout.

Former Rep. Pat Toomey, speaking for the GOP ... focused on bailouts for ... the car companies; the economic stimulus legislation that has failed to cut unemployment rates; and Obama's health care law.

"Now, where do all these bailouts, takeovers and spending sprees leave us?" Toomey asked. "They leave us with a weak economy without job growth and with a mountain of debt for our kids."
BUT WE WOULD HAVE BEEN IN A GREAT DEPRESSION NOW, THAT WAS THE ALTERNATIVE, AND WE WOULD HAVE NO AMERICAN AUTO COMPANIES EXCEPT FOR FORD; AND AN EVEN WORSE OFF MANUFACTURING BASE; WITH HIGHER UNEMPLOYMENT.
