They are consistent, repulsive as it may be

Give the White House credit for being consistent:

CongressDaily today: "[White House spokesman Trent] Duffy asserted that the vast spending that would be required to address the hurricane's impact adds to the need to change Social Security, which threatens to strain the budget in coming years."

Last I heard, the presidents "Privitazation" plan would add billions to the deficit in the short term. How does INCREASING our debt, straining the budget even further in the short term HELP?

Any excuse, no matter how feeble to rip away at the strands of our frayed social safety net. These people are repulsive.
