Today In McMaveric TalkStraightedness

St. John says that Social Security is a "a disgrace. It's an absolute disgrace".

Notes Dean Baker:

Some folks might have thought Senator McCain's description of Social Security as a "disgrace" was worth a mention somewhere in the media, but the NYT, Washington Post, WSJ, and USA Today don't seem to have noticed. It's not like he said "bitter."

That's because reporters from the above mentioned "news" institutions were probably too busy serving McCain coffee and doughnuts (with sprinkles!) - just the way he likes them.
