A post from January 2007:
In 2005, Pres. Bush put a Social Security idea on the table. It wasn't perfect. What is? Yet, it forced the nation to think about the issue.
The Democrats responded with the usual "demagoguery" that Republicans want to hurt old folks.
The bottom line is that nothing happened. We are now two years closer to the point when baby boomers retire and start collecting their checks.
Entitlement reform, and the war on terror, must be the issues of 2008.
The American people are ahead of the politicians on this one. They understand that the system is broken. We need leadership on entitlement reform.
