The Republicans are Totally Lost. They suck.

[Neubarth]

You Republicans are totally lost on where the votes could come from. The polls in California show that you are losing all across the board in that state.

So, I will help you out.

The Social Security Cost of Living adjustment last year was ZER0 percent. This year is it going to be ZER0 percent!

THIS is the issue for those thus effected. They will vote accordingly. The Democrats have TOTALLY forgotten the elderly!!!!!!!!!!!

The actual increase in the cost of food has been well over TEN percent during the past two years.. The cost of utilities has risen almost eleven percent over the past two years. YET, the Cost of living has supposedly been the same "ZERO percent increase" in two years. Man is that royally fugged up!!!!!! BECAUSE OF THAT, THE ELDERLY ARE STARVING!

That, ZER0 percent adjustment, of course is totally and outrageously insane hokum. The Elderly who are now eating Skippy dog food because they can no longer afford cheap hamburger on their Social Security payments are now being told that there will be no increase in their monthly checks FOR THE SECOND YEAR IN A ROW because the cost of airplanes has fallen and that has offset the cost of food and utilities.

WTF???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Is Obama trying to commit political suicide???????????????????????

Now, if the Republican party had their chit together they would raise hell about the elderly having to eat dog food.

The elderly do not buy planes and fighter aircraft and that should not be figured into their annual cost of living adjustment. Remember nearly 90 percent of the retired are living off of Social Security alone. Why is the Republican Party so slow to jump on this horrible and ludicrous exploitation of the elderly to fund the never ending Democratic war of religious extermination in Afghanistan?

What the fug in going on in this country. A ten percent increase in food costs is a ten percent increase in the cost of LIVING.

Why are the Republicans not on this like stink of sheet?????

If you're waiting to be saved by Republicans, move out of California.

Don't try to hold the People's Republic of Fornicalia up as any accurate microcosm of the country as a whole.

The bankruptcy of Socialist Insecurity is nigh and there's nothing the dempoublicraticans can do about it....That there are as many people basing as much if their retirement on it is their problem...They can vote all they want, but can't still insulate themselves from the hyperinflation that will surely result, if nothing is done and the checks are just printed up.

Obama was elected to preside over the dismantling of the New deal. Which he will do if he serves two terms.

No COLA, no problem, inflation has been near zero. Suck it up and be grateful that benefits are not denied until you reach 72yo.

You have three guesses as to what the Republicans will do in 2011 and the first two don't count.

I'm young enough that I'm not going to see benefits that are meaningful....As far as I'm concerned, the sooner that Ponzi scam collapses the better.

benefits will be cut or deferred until a retiree reaches 75 yoa. It can't be sustained, esp after 2017.

dismantle social security?

Dismantle? Oh no, that would lose votes. They'll raise the retirement age to 75 then display a graph showing how SS is "saved".

As bad as the Dems are (and they are bad) you think I'd trust the Republicans to do the right thing? No.

The republicans had congress and Bush and they didn't accomplish a single campaign cycle wedge issue promise.

Not SS, not medicare, not gay marriage, not abortion, NOTHING.
