I thought Joe Conason was just trying to out funny Francken, but he was justing telling the truth that Bill Bennett's Empower America was a big mover behind all this social security privatization.

Ask the bozo in chief of the Senate - Frist - who can't pay a half million dollar campaign debt because he invested the funds in the stock market, and the money either disappeared or didn't appreciate at all.
Just like my IRAs over the past four years - worth less now than in 2000.
