Pat Buchanan lies Tonight on Soc Sec - tries to imply Clinton Crisis
Quote from 98/99 endorsed private accounts.


The quote is
"And all of you know to a greater or lesser degree of specificity, every one of you know that the Social Security system is not sound for the long-term, so that all of these achievements -- the economic achievements, our increasing social coherence and cohesion, our increasing efforts to reduce poverty among our youngest children -- all of them are threatened by the looming fiscal crisis in Social Security."

See this thread as to what Clinton did want - namely to invest the Soc Sec Trust fund in equities and not in gov bonds - as in a "higher return" was needed.

1. LOL! Don't you just love how they rip Clinton apart and blame him
for everything, yet they go rushing to grasp straws whenever he might have said something they believe in? Excuse me, but didn't you just try to destroy the credibility of the man you're now using as a testimonial?

They're fucking bonkers!
