Republicans often attack President Obama for his administration's job-killing regulations. I am not in the White House very often, but I think the president and his team know that destroying jobs and hurting American businesses isn't a very good way to get re-elected --- and I can promise you that getting re-elected is President Obama’s top priority, as it should be. So, in my view, these Republican attacks are unfair.

The news that Social Security will face shortfalls in the near future is not good news for the federal program that millions of American seniors and disabled folks rely on to help make ends meet. Clearly something needs to be done to fix Social Security. My fear is that Republicans are going to try to gut Social Security under the cover of "reforming" the program by eliminating "waste, fraud and abuse."
