The lies keep a comin'

Wow. Today's Bushco blunder shouldn't surprise, but it sure doesn't delight. Seems the administration has told employees of the Social Security Administration to parrot the political message about a "crisis" so people will begin clamoring for reform. That's why the Social Security website, customer service lines, and mailings reflect doom and gloom.

According to an article in today's Indianapolis Star, "A pair of Social Security employees told the Democratic Policy Committee they objected to internal agency documents that direct employees to talk about the system's problems and a need for reform." Although the newspaper had a misleading headline, "Democrats Bash Bush on Social Security," they at least told the story.

Bushco runs rampant.
