36. Not against any rule that I know of. Simply taking the authors letter,
Edited on Sun May-08-11 07:25 AM by geckosfeet
which was a screed to Senator Simpson, (a RW nut ball) and turning into a screed against the original author. As with most screeds, they can be pointed in either direction with equal effect.

The author was railing against a statement that vilified the SS and the poor. You are turning that on it's head and vilifying his intent.

SS/medicare is a needed and effective programs when administered responsibly. Our government has badly squandered SS money on things it was never supposed to pay for. They (our government) are at fault. That is the point of the screed and that much is true.

Honestly, your message is garbled and unclear.
