Archive of this week's Making Sense, Rude Pundit discusses SS/Medicare, & Inna Shevchenko from Femen

15. Listening now

When Rude Pundit suggested the Social Security debacle a 12 dimensional chess game, as far-fetched as that may be, there's something to be said for allowing your opponent to get their way first when, in politics, the first one to make a move gets criticized and their plan, no matter how good it is, gets put in jeopardy and eventually discredited and abandoned.

But if you let the republican plan go first, when it fails, you eliminate the alternative to your own plan and then can endorse it with much less political resistance.

Great show so far!
