every politician says stupid shit at some point that comes back on them. Obama is well known for it. Why don't you call him on it? I can pull up any number of YouTube videos if you require further proof.You're kidding right?
He walked back the ponzi scheme thing from the first debate to the second debate. In the first debate he was very strong on his initial statement. He said that SSI was a Ponzi scheme and that people today shouldn't expect it to be there when they retired.
In the SECOND debate, he said it wanted to REFORM it. This time, he said he wanted to make it a STATE issue.
I can't wait for the THIRD iteration!
You didn't mention the debates in your OP. Your assertion was about the Hannity interview. I didn't click on your link because I watched the interview and didn't need a bloger to tell me what I saw.
If you didn't watch the debates..well my bad.
In any case..it's seems to be part of a general strategy to make Perry more electable.
The thing is...as I put in another thread, this guy has said and done so many things that are on record..it's going to be a tough sell.
I had thought seeing the first debate..he was going to "stick by his guns". Not that I agree with him at all..but heck..that's somewhat admirable.
But he's not going to do that.
Besides if these two issues are all you have that's quite a stretch. Perry didn't himself call for a split, someone else did and he didn't distance himself from the comment to your satisfaction. Big deal. And as far as the scheme goes tell me this. How is a system that was implimented to pay out at 62 when life expectancy was 60 not a scheme? Huh?
