I listened to the entire Sam Johnson tele-town hall this morning and I was thoroughly disappointed with both the tone and content.  No mention was made of the fact that Mr. Johnson has previously supported both privatizing Social Security and dismantling Medicare.  You let him get away with cavalierly dismissing the idea of raising or eliminating the Social Security tax earnings cap, which, by AARP’s own figures, would eliminate most of the shortfall, while putting forth the horrendous alternative of raising the retirement age.  Sam Johnson has a cushy do-little, well-paid position that he may keep until he’s 105, but not everybody does.  Congressman Sam Johnson is no friend of Social Security, seniors, or AARP.”
