Dear Mr. President. I didn't vote for capitulation!!!!
Mr. President, I didn't vote for this kind of shit. Compromising your true values is not "compromise" especially when the Republicans are going to reject your budget anyway, because this is what they do, as sure as the sun rises in the east. They don't want to work with you in any way, shape or form. And now you've stabbed the poor in the back because they are the ones that will feel this the most and they are the ones that depend on SS in their old age to make ends meet. If compromise to you means capitulation, than you've just lost my respect.
“But his (McCain's) campaign has gone even further, suggesting that the best answer to the growing pressures on Social Security might be to cut cost-of-living adjustments or raise the retirement age. I will not do either.”
