This old wrangle. Well, now it's obvious that the people we should be thanking are not the president and his henchmen; it's all the 20- and 30-somethings whose Social Security trust fund the Republicans are busy doling out to the upper-income brackets. Thanks, kids! Best of luck! This from the New York Times puts it pretty succinctly.

After the Clinton years, we're all used to hearing the president called a liar. Of course, in this case it's only about the future of our country instead of his personal peccadillos.
