| TPMtv: McCain's Social Security Bamboozle |
 |
Your Daily Politics Video Blog: One of the
most entertaining things about the 2008
campaign has been watching John McCain
embrace all of President Bush's policies and
word game flimflams. And there's no better
example than Social Security where McCain has
not only adopted President Bush's proposal to
phase out Social Security and replace it with
private investment accounts he's even adopted
Bush's word game bamboozlement to try to
trick voters into thinking he doesn't support
the policy he actually does support. Those of
us who are about to talk straight, Salute
You!

"But I'm not for quote privatizing Social
Security, I never have been, I never will
be." [New Hampshire Town Hall, 06/12/08]
"Without privatization, I don't see how you
can possibly, over time, make sure that young
Americans are able to receive Social Security
benefits." [C-Span Road to the White House,
11/18/2004]

| Cafferty File: Privatizing Social Security |
 |
From the Cafferty File:
Bear Stearns, Lehman Brothers, Merrill Lynch,
AIG, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
The crisis on Wall Street is enough to rattle
any investor Let alone one who is about to
retire or whos already living on a fixed
income.
401(k)s and pension plans — many of which
have exposure to these troubled companies —
are taking huge hits as a result of this
mess.
Luckily we have the safety net of Social
Security to fall back on For now.
You may remember just four years ago
President Bush made a big push to partially
privatize Social Security You know so we
could individually invest our future with the
great minds on Wall Street. It failed back
then, but that concept could still become a
reality. See John McCain also supports
supplementing Social Security with private
investment accounts. His opponent Barack
Obama does not.
Heres my question to you: In light of the
failures of large financial institutions, is
privatizing Social Security a good idea?
