This morning I called the office of Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse of Rhode Island to thank him for his energetic support of Social Security and to suggest that perhaps he should be drafted for the Democratic Party nomination for President. We surely do not need in the White House a President who will put Social Security on the chopping block, euphemistically called "the table."
Senator Whitehouse was interviewed on National Public Radio late last week and called the Republican effort to cut Social Security something they (Republicans) have wanted to do for a long time. Republicans, said Whitehouse, are opposed to Social Security itself for various reasons and are merely using the budget deficit as an excuse for attacking it.
Thank you, Sen. Whitehouse, for telling the truth!
