AND NOW A WORD FOR THE MOST VENAL MAN TO EVER OCCUPY THE WHITE HOUSE-- AND THE MOST IGNORANT:

George W. Bush, for once, telling the truth: "And that's why I'm talking about Social Security. And the debate has only just begun. (Applause.) But I believe the side of reform is going to prevail, because the American people now are beginning to realize we have a serious problem when it comes to Social Security. And that problem begins with people like me."
