February 2, 2005 Groundhog Inauguration

I suppose you could call today Social Insecurity Day.

What happened to the surplus we had just 4 years ago? We were going to give half of it back and still have some left over. I think the same accountants worked for Enron and Halliburton. Are they now working for Social Security?

Now I know that we had to respond to September 11 and I was in favor of going into Afghanistan, but I was very doubtful about the reasons for attacking Iraq. I figured that others knew more than I did and once they found the weapons of mass destruction it would justify all the killing and mayhem. What happened to the weapons of mass destruction mentioned just 3 years ago?

Now we're being told that somebody has a surefire answer to solving future problems with social security. Forgive me if I'm a bit sceptical.

These are the same people who don't believe in global warming even though the poles are melting. These are the same people who still haven't found the terrorist who killed so many of our people. Osama still taunts the most powerful nation in the world and gets away with it.

Their predictions and their conclusions seem to be as accurate as the groundhog's.
