Pelosi: "We are about pay-as-you-go"
In the latest sign that the Democratic Leadership just doesn’t get it, one needs look no further than Nancy Pelosi’s appearance on CNN today. She said of Democrats, "we are about solvency and lock box, pay-as-you-go, so that the budget deficit does not drain the trust fund."
I never thought of establishing a pay-as-you-go system that leads to bankruptcy as something you would brag about. I also never considered equating such a system with solvency.
Even the CNN interviewer said "republicans have been demanding you put a plan on the table for months now regarding retirement. You have, but it does not address social security solvency aren't you ducking that?
When the press is calling out your policy shortcomings, it might be time for a change of strategy.
