Today's WTF Moment Brought to You By Congressional Republicans..........

[disneydream06]

Dear MoveOn member,

Yesterday news broke that John Boehner, the Republican Leader in the House of Representatives, believes that Congress should raise the retirement age to 70 and cut Social Security so that we can finance the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

That's right: Boehner told a reporter that he thinks we should cut Social Security to pay for war.1 And later in the day, several other Republicans came out and agreed with him.2

Both sides have their crackpots....hopefully the majority won't agree to this!

What happened to the old days when a politician would dream of attacking SS? I thought they were afraid of the old folk voters? :o
