Things that go bump in the night
Obviously this paragraph below is nothing but a devious lie and anyone who has examined the chicken bones carefully enough or can hear the mysterious whistling of wild dogs or the eerie hootings of winged predators filtering through the trees at midnight - or reads the writing in the shadows flickering along the hallways of doom, etc. etc... will understand what I am talking about. Here ya go:
From White House.gov:
Now watch what happens if you apply the super-secret dog-whistle word filter to that paragraph:
See that! Yeah, that's right, it's all right there in black and white and charcoal grey. And lets face it, when, anytime within the last 50 years, has there ever been a better more advantageous and opportune economic climate from which to sell social security privatization to the American people? Well? Clearly, It's a no-brainer!
I also have it on good authority - although this is only rumored gossip - but nevertheless on good authority, that president Obama intends to appoint former ENRON CEO and chairman Kenneth Lay to oversee the new Office of Social Security Privatization. Yesiree bub. And you thought Kenny Boy was dead as an SPV doornail dint ya?
Ha ha, no. Following Kenny's retirement in January of 2003 he relocated to the Apennines where he now lives with Italian super-model Puntini Jujube. They met at the Shoe Show in Milan and both have been residing quietly together in a small yet remarkably comfortable ceramics studio located deep inside the Pietra di Bismantova where Kenny carves intricate little scenes of the Divine Comedy from locally available marlstone deposits.
I have it all on good authority.

From White House.gov:
Protect Social Security
President Obama and Vice President Biden are committed to ensuring Social Security is solvent and viable for the American people, now and in the future. Obama and Biden will be honest with the American people about the long-term solvency of Social Security and the ways we can address the shortfall. They will protect Social Security benefits for current and future beneficiaries alike, and they do not believe it is necessary or fair to hardworking seniors to raise the retirement age. Obama and Biden are strongly opposed to privatizing Social Security. As part of a bipartisan plan that would be phased in over many years, they will ask those making over $250,000 to contribute a bit more to Social Security to keep it sound.
