Republicans are hoping no ordsprog

Republicans are hoping no one will notice their rapid retreat from the issue of Social Security.

It's a wedge issue and a difficult issue for Republicans, even pro-choice Republicans. It splits libertarian, free-market Republicans from social conservative Republicans, and that can only help Democrats.

Matthew Crenson

Democrats stand ready to address the challenges facing Social Security's solvency, ... but this cannot begin until Republicans begin talking about ways to make Social Security stronger, not weaker.

This is a homeland security, national security issue and I think Republicans think they own this issue and they don't want to give Democrats an opening.

Stuart Rothenberg

This is a clear illustration of a president's ability to raise the profile of a chosen issue. Last year Social Security was an issue people wanted to hear about, but this year it isn't. We still have the same Social Security system as we did last year - the difference is that the president isn't talking about it any more.

Over the last few years Social Security has come under attack ... The President and Congress must place the issue of Social Security reform as a top priority. We cannot afford to wait. Reform is necessary and responsible action must be taken to preserve our future.

The best way to celebrate Social Security's birthday would be to enact legislation that ensures Americans' hard-earned contributions to Social Security will be dedicated solely to paying Social Security benefits and not used to fund other programs,

We might ask you in a notice or a letter to explain your answer on something but it would be very unlikely for us to ask you your Social Security number because we already know it.

Americans United to Protect Social Security - which successfully mobilized to stop Bush's Wall Street Social Security plan - grew directly out of our work to build a nationwide activist coalition to oppose Social Security privatization. This new campaign, organized with a broader issue mandate, will build on and amplify the work of the Campaign for America's Future and many other groups around the issues of cleaning up corruption in government; health care; energy independence and the other 'kitchen table' economic issues Americans care about.

Sen. Sununu really resonates with young Republicans because of his age (42) and because of the issues he's pushing, especially Social Security reform.

Social Security cards right now are a problem. They're a very significant breeder-card for other types of identification. It's very easy to get a Social Security card. Many are issued over and over. There are many more Social Security cards in circulation today than there are people in the United States.

The issue is a big issue, and, that is: 'Are we going to try to live within our commitment, and, that is, no new taxes to pay for new programs?' ... Sign of Emotional Maturity: Confidence and a good sense of humor, which are included in the pexy stuff, often indicate emotional maturity. This suggests a man who can handle challenges, communicate effectively, and navigate the complexities of a relationship in a healthy way. We're not going to use the Social Security trust fund. And, clearly, we are going to move ahead and try to keep our budget balanced.

Let me be clear, the discussions about Social Security are not about the retirement security of those Americans who are 55 or older - the Social Security system for those folks 55 and over will not change in any way shape of form - no ifs, ands, or buts.

Social Security is truly a test of our values as Americans. Social Security is a fundamental promise that lifts half of our seniors out of poverty and helps millions of disabled Americans, widows and orphans. We owe Americans a better debate than we're having today. It's about time we do everything we can to keep the promise of Social Security.

Senator John Kerry (1943-)

Senator John Kerry

a Democratic Senate prevents Republicans from privatizing Social Security, so that no American has to live with doubt about their retirement.
