Bush Tax Cuts Reduced Total Income By $2.7 Trillion

" In an interview last week, Rep. ChrisVanHoellen, the chairman of the Democratic Congressio nalCampaig nCommittee, persistently refused to take cuts to SocialSecurity off the table. He said that  Obama's DeficitCommission would make its report after the election and that the Democratic leadership couldn't say before seeing it that a plan that includes cuts to SocialSecurity was unacceptable."

He was not saying that-Social Security Won't Go Away!.

===========================================


That's quite the 'strawman argument' you put forth there.  

Nobody made your claim, that he said "Social Security would go away".  

This was (one of) the claim(s):

DCCC’s Chair Van Hollen Won’t Commit to Protecting Social Security from Cuts/Higher Retirement Age

 And the fact that Obama has put Social Security on the table at all of his 'Debt Commission', which runs a surplus.  With a group, all of whom support privatizing Social Security.  

But why would anybody be surprised by that.  It is the SOP for the deceitful Obama & DLC-controlled Democratic Party (DINOs).   

Just like early in the healthcare legislation process, Obama declaring that he wouldn't sign any legislation that didn't include a public option (and then k!lling the move to slip it at the last minute -- Few even know about that), Obama will preside over the gutting & privatization of Social Security before his term is over.
