“This administration is populated by people who’ve spent their careers bashing government. They’re not just small-government conservatives—they’re Grover Norquist, strangle-it-in-the-bathtub conservatives. It’s a cognitive disconnect for them to be able to do something well in an arena that they have so derided and reviled all these years.”

Bush scheduled to visit Wyoming yet?

Just curious:
Sen. Craig Thomas, R-Wyo., says something needs to be done to shore up Social Security, but he's not convinced about a Bush administration proposal to allow some Social Security taxes to be placed in private savings accounts.

Thomas said the government might not be able to take on the expense of the plan, which he pegged at $2 trillion. He also said it doesn't make good financial sense to reduce the amount of money flowing into the Social Security trust fund as baby boomers approach retirement.

Like herding cats, huh Mr. President?
