"The Republicans would have shut down Social Security."

Naw. I LIKE that one. So do the vast majority of Americans. But, you've got to admit that there are programs worth shutting down, that were just bacon some congressperson fried up for their homies.

Multiply that by every dillweed that's served in congress, EVER. There's no established mechanism for exterminating those. There should be.

>> The Republicans would have shut down Social Security.

This is such a lie. No Republican I know of has ever suggested shutting down SS, and certainly, there has been no interest other than perhaps an outlier in suggesting it.

It is a great program. It just needs to be totally canned and rebuilt from the ground up though to make it fiscally workable.
