Heard over the weekend, "The Republicans SAVED Social Security".

[bvar22]

I am NOT making this up.

A group of Fox News listening Tea Baggers had gathered behind our fire trucks watching a hay barn burn to the ground on Sat Night. One of the louder mouths said in a jeering tone, "Obama tried to take away our Social Security, but Boehner stopped him" to the agreement and approval of those listening to him.

Get ready.
It is coming.

1. No matter what happens, they will spin (lie) it their way. Always. nt

2. And now the re-write. See new fact sheet summer of 2012.

3. Yep.

When Obama put the big 3 on table I knew it was coming.

5. What a shock!

Lies & spin to make themselves look like heroes!

[Dawson Leery]

6. Fox "News" viewers are of the least informed.

[Whisp]

13. not so sure about that....

lots of dumb mudderfuckers all over

7. How do their heads not explode?

Time and time again Cons have described S.S. a s a ponzi scheme and how it cant' work and how it should be done away with.

Now they want credit for "saving" it?!

8. not surprising -- but if someone insists that the sky is purple, at some point they're not worth

arguing with.

9. well Boehner

from all the stuff I'm hearing is the hero today. Unless none of it passes. Of course the Fake News watchers didn't hear all the democrats coming out against it..hmmm tell me again which republicans were against SSI cuts?

[KoKo]

10. Oh yes.......it's definitely coming.

[readmoreoften]

11. That was also the meme on two right wing talk stations here over the weekend.

12. I've said this all along and some thought I was nuts...

[amborin]

14. wasn't it Obama who wanted Soc Sec & Medicare on the table?

[bvar22]

15. It was,

and Boehner turned down The Deal and walked out,
so there IS a kernel of truth in the TeaBagger's claim.
