Gotta love O's media lap dogs...........

I note with interest, the MSM's general lack of interest in the Administration deciding that there will be NO COLA increases in Social Security for the next two years..... The part that I find interesting, is that is how they report it......'no increases'! I seem to recall during the last eight years, that every time budget restraints called for reducing an increase -- it was headlined a CUT!! If for example, a projected budget increase of 20% for Medicaid, or welfare was reduced to a 10% increase -- the headlines screamed "Bush cuts Medicaid payments by 10%!!!! (not Medicaid increase to be just 10%) This year however, as all annual COLA's are CUT, they are called 'no increases'~ Meanwhile congress gave itself another $4,700 raise this year and defeated a bill which would have discontinued the auto pay raises for congress. If you'd like to know how your Senators voted - go here! I'm pleased with my two from Texas.... http://www.washingtonwatch.com/blog/2009/03/15/now-about-tha t-congressional-pay-raise/
