You've got to love some snark from the NYTimes courtesy of David Sanger.
When President Bush's Social Security plan first ran into headwinds, the White House began a 60-cities-in-60-days tour to drum up political support that could be used in Congress.
That approach proved insufficient. So Thursday, in Hopkinsville, Ky., Mr. Bush described his next tactic: the endless Social Security tour.
A very good leftie radio show is Mike Malloy on Air America Radio from 10 pm to 1am. He routinely rips the drug-abusing pigman Limbaugh a new one. You can also get his show's archives at http://www.whiterosesociety.org

Posted by T2 at June 3, 2005 12:55 PMmuckcat, my favorite part of Sanger's article:
He talked at length to Erica Campbell, a 28-year-old nursing student who has set up a 401(k) retirement account. Mr. Bush used her as an example of a young worker eager to create an account that she can pass on to her daughter if she dies before depleting it in retirement.
Yeah, she'll need to die early and leave her daughter some cash to pay for the debt Bush has incurred for her generation. What a prince he is.
