1. If Perry is the nominee

Obama will come out with his own plan to end SS.

3. -100

Not helpful in any way.

6. He did it on oil drilling,

he did it on the ozone regulations, he did it on cuts to SS and Medicare, he did it on the Bush Tax Cuts.

7. What cuts on SS and Medicare?

Uff da!

[edhopper]

8. Do you not recall what he said during

the debt ceiling debate a month ago?

[MineralMan]

10. I do. I recall his exact words. You appear not to.

Go back and listen to them carefully.

2. That might keep dem voters from wandering away
