I'm surprised Chafee didn't vote against the cuts...

Langevin leads Chafee 41-27 if he runs. Chafee must have given up on winning re-election.

There are no cuts, genius.

This is just a dumb Senate resolution to express the "sense of the Senate that Congress should reject any Social Security plan that requires deep benefit cuts or a massive increase in debt."

So yes, jfern, as usual, is too much of a partisan hack to make an accurate title. How often do you have to make a fool out of yourself? I noticed you're pretty good at it.

In other words, this resolution is about opposition to Bush's Social Security plan, which calls for a massive 'increase' debt, though complaining about that is almost as idiotic as this bill, for the simple reason that the future of the system is itself in far greater debt.

I can frame an issue, too.
