That Wonderful Ron Regan and Social Security

Does McSame remember how that wonderful Ron Regan solved the "crisis" of social security in 1983? He reached across the aisle to Tip O'Neil and accepted the recommendations of the Greenspan Commission: raise taxes.

Of course Tom Brokaw conflated Medicare and Social Security and Dean Baker calls him on the social security is broke bit. At least NBC didn't feature the unbiased team of Peggy Noonan and Jane Swift to critique the debate, as they did for Palin.
