President Obama on Wednesday attempted to preempt the announcement that Social Security recipients will not get an increase in their benefit checks for the first time in three decades, encouraging Congress to provide a one-time payment of $250 to help seniors and disabled Americans weather the recession.

$250 in cat food would be better.

No politician with half a brain is going to tell the old folks they can't have a cost of living adjustment next year even if inflation is negative. Those old bastards vote and they want some of Daddy Warbuck's cash.

Hence the death panel. The system works.

Let's just kill off everyone born before 1965. It's the only way to save America.

I like a Sophie's Choice method really; anyone born AFTER 1965 gets to choose one person born before who will live. After all, there are SOME productive people born pre-1965.

I'd draw the line at 1980, personally.

Maybe we can thin the herd at both ends? Pre 1980, post 1985

[Asher]

Nah, 1986. SO was born then.

Unless you are being taken care of by your kids or can adopt kids to take care of you.

And probably fix it to born before 1950.

You're not going to get rid of me that easily.

No. The Baby Boom was from 1946 to 1964. You're only going to kill off a small fraction of them if you make 1950 the cutoff. Think, JM...

I can live with that change. Democracy, it just works (unless those old ****ers are involved)!

Holy ****, I had no idea you were so old. How can you stand it?

[Jon Miller]

Why do you think he said 1965?

I sleep with much younger men to help me forget that I'm ancient.
