...and they've always been willing to lie about it. Kudos to Kos for finding this little gem. Seems that George W. Bush, back in 1978, claimed during his failed Congressional campaign that Social Security would go broke by 1988 unless it was privatized. 1988 came and went. So did 1998. So did 2004. And Social Security is still here. Of course, this is the sort of fuzzy math we've come to expect from a guy who sees no problems with giving rich people huge tax cuts during wartime.
