Oh yeah, like they know anything about limited income

It's my understanding that Bush's Social Security plan is dead in the water, and that they all kow it. I guess when you've fucked up everything else, there's not much to go around the country talking about.

Former first lady Barbara Bush teamed up with her son the president on Friday in trying to drum up support among older Americans for his Social Security and Medicare plans.

At a senior center, and then before an invitation-only audience at a downtown civic center, the mother and son team promoted Bush's embattled Social Security restructuring plan and the new Medicare prescription drug program that takes effect Jan. 1.

And like a vaudeville team, they kept stepping on each other's lines and zinging each other.

You know, maybe there's a future for them after all. It could be funny if they weren't attempting to run the country.

Bush vowed that nothing in his proposal for individual investment accounts would reduce benefits for current retirees or those close to retiring. "Seniors have nothing to worry about. ... What you should be worried about is whether your grandchildren are going to get any checks," Bush said.

"I'm here because I'm worried about our 17 grandchildren," said Barbara Bush.

What? Is she cutting them out of the will? Aren't they going to get cushy jobs on their name, like her children?

....but hey, do what you want....you will anyway.
