The Generational Tricksters

For many an election cycle including of course the current one, the Democrat party has been peddling gross distortion about GOP plans and intentions to try and retain the ballots of America's senior citizens. These scare tactics involve charges that Republicans wanted to see Social Security "wither on the vine", that allowing workers to direct the investment of a small percentage of their withholding would destroy the non-existent Social Security "lock box", to really repulsive claims that the GOP wanted seniors eating cat food or denied life-extending medical care. The fact is that the Democrats are the ones who seek to ration and limit health care choices through Obama care. Pitting old against young is just one more Democrat attempt at triangulation, like tearing us apart on racial matters or even over sexual orientation. And the age ploy will now foist unrecoverable debt on the youth today and even on generations not yet born, a condition so aptly termed "generational theft" by Arizona Republican Senator John McCain. Dear elders, please do not listen to the fear mongering of the Left, we are all in the same boat together and instead of bailing, Obama's spending opens the floodgates to sink our national ship.
