“did you hear the one about the liberal who markets the politics of fear? I am reminded by the previous speaker that in this Chamber, 2 years ago, we heard that the elderly would be thrown into the streets and that schoolchildren would be starved. That just was not true. And yet in the name of political hyperbole and fear, the liberals pull out the only card they know to market, to try and scare the H-E-double-hockey- sticks out of seniors. The fact is, less than a year ago, our majority in Congress moved to save 90 percent of the surplus for Social Security. We currently are working on plans to save all of that surplus for today's seniors. Sad to say, the other side offers fear. We offer hope, opportunity and reality. There is a clear difference in America, and that is why together, as Americans, we can solve problems, if we avoid the partisan temptations of fear.”
