As reported here, the fear mongering through the use of lies has started, only one day after the State primary election. This is no surprise, really, in that, since the Dems have no real message, they want to confuse and scare people by making unfounded attacks on their opponents. How typical.
U.S. Senate candidate Mike McGavick publicly lamented on election night Tuesday that the Democrats were trying to demonize his call for Social Security reform -- which, sure enough, was the first broadside out of the enemy camp just 12 hours later.
State Democratic Chairman Dwight Pelz, standing with Gov. Chris Gregoire at a post-primary news conference Wednesday, lobbed one of his party's favorite accusations at Sen. Maria Cantwell's Republican challenger: privatization.
Here's Mike's stated position on Social Security reform: It’s time that we move Social Security reform—so long bogged down in political gamesmanship—to a more thoughtful and productive place. I propose the creation of a commission, like the Base Realignment and Closure Commission, which makes decisions about the closure of military facilities, be enacted for Social Security reform to remove the partisanship and create results on this crucial issue.
I don't see the word, "privatize" anywhere in that statement, yet the state Dems are screaming it from the rooftops in an attempt to scare voters. Social Security needs to be reformed - NOW - and removed from being what it essentially is, which is a ponzi scheme.
McGavick told supporters at his election-night celebration that whenever he talks about the need to revamp the Social Security system, it "gets derided as privatization, which I happen to be against." A spokesman said Wednesday that a Cantwell-sponsored Social Security bill would accelerate the program's cost growth and insolvency risk. [emphasis mine]
Now, let me see ... what was it I was saying about the Dems during the previous election? Oh, yes, I remember now. They had a motto, which it appears they still believe in - Lie, Cheat, and Steal. Lie to the voters about what Republicans are saying and doing; cheat voters however they can; and try to steal elections by telling lies and cheating.
Instead of wasting time and energy telling us lies about how "evil" Republicans are, why don't you Dems spend your time and energy telling us - and truthfully, now - what good you are willing to do, not for yourselves, but for the people.
I, for one, am tired of hearing the lies, and your do nothing "plans". I think a lot of us are tired of it, so get a clue, ok?
