"Just as President Bush's Social Security overhaul seems to be staggering under its own political weight, one powerful House Republican is taking a contrarian's approach to saving it: Pile on a heavier load."

"House Ways and Means Chairman Bill Thomas (R-Bakersfield) is trying to breathe new life into the Social Security debate by marrying it to a plethora of other contentious issues, among them rewriting the tax code, financing long-term healthcare and shoring up private pensions."

"The strategy is vintage Thomas: No one ever accused the brainy but irascible chairman of thinking too small, or of having too little self-confidence to swing for the fences."
