The Word Is Out - GOP Candidate Says "Sunset" Social Security That Means ----

[TheMastersNemesis]

they would support sunsetting Medicare, Food Stamps, Medicaid et al as well. Voters must pay attention to the rhetoric where ever it comes from. Senatorial candidate McMahon of Connecticut has made it clear that she supports setting a "kill date" for Social Security.

I have often said that the GOP will just stop the checks immediately given the chance. How sunsetting would work is a mystery of course.

We must alway be on the guard because the GOP has made it clear that IT WILL NEVER GIVE UP.

5. How the Hell can this creep be so close in Connecticut?

I guess she cleans up nice. But boy she is ugly down to the bone.

6. If the Repukes get control, "sunsetting Medicare" will mean that it will end that same day.

7. The general fund (read: rich income-tax payers) owes Social Security $3 trillion.

THIS is why the GOP wants to "sunset" Social Security... they don't want to pay back what they took!

9. Nor do they want future contributions to go to anyone but their masters.

10. We will just have to hand their asses to them as many times as it takes, until they get the message.

GOP, we don't want what you want, and there are a whole lot more of us than you can buy. Suck it.
