THIS ONE IS FOR CONSERVATIVES ONLY!!!!! -from the inbox

An old story, told once again. I'm just amazed that the Democrats didn't blame it all on George Bush.

Subject: Our Social Security

Franklin Delano. Roosevelt
32nd. President, Democrat Terms of Office March 4, 1933 , to April 12,
1945

Our Social
Security
Franklin Delano. Roosevelt (Terms of Office March 4,
1933, to April 12,
1945), a Democrat, introduced the Social Security (FICA) Program. He
Promised:

1.) That participation in the Program would be Completely voluntary,
2.) That the participants would only have to pay 1% of the first $1,400 of their annual Incomes into the Program,
3.) That the money the participants elected to put Into the Program would be
deductible from Their income for tax purposes each
year,
4.) That the money the participants put into the Independent 'Trust Fund' rather than into the General operating fund, and therefore, would Only be used to fund the
Social Security Retirement Program, and no other Government program,
and
5.) That the annuity payments to the retirees would never be taxed as income.
Since many of us have paid into FICA for years and are now receiving a Social
Security check every month -- and then finding that we are getting taxed on 85% of themoney we paid to the Federal government to 'Put Away' -- you may be
interested in the following:

----------THEN---------------------------------------------------

Dwight David Eisenhower
34th. President, Republican,
Term
Of Office: January 20, 1953 to January 20,
1961

In 1958 is the first year that Congress, not President Eisenhower, voted to remove funds from Social Security and put it into the General Fund for Congress to spend.
It was a democratically controlled Congress.

Congress's logic at that time was that there was so much money in Social
Security Fund that it would never run out / be used up for the purpose it was intended / set aside for.

-------------WORSE STILL------------------------------------------------

------------------THE STRAW THAT BROKE THE CAMEL'S BACK !!-------------------------------------------------

(Jimmy Carter)
39th President, Democrat
Term of Office: January 20, 1977 to January 20,
1981

Question:  Which Political Party decided to start giving Annuity payments to immigrants?

AND
MY
FAVORITE:

ANSWER: That's right!  JAMES EARL CARTER, JR. (JIMMY CARTER)
(DEMOCRAT, TERM OF OFFICE: JANUARY 20, 1977 TO JANUARY 20, 1981 AND THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY.

IMMIGRANTS MOVED INTO THIS COUNTRY, AND AT AGE 65, BEGAN TO
RECEIVE SOCIAL SECURITY PAYMENTS: THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY GAVE THESE PAYMENTS TO THEM, EVEN THOUGH
THEY NEVER PAID A DIME INTO IT!

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Then, after violating the original contract (FICA), the Democrats turn around and tell you that the Republicans want to take your Social
Security away!

And the worst part about it is uninformed citizens believe
it!

If enough people receive this, maybe a seed of Awareness will be planted and maybe changes WILL evolve! .. Maybe not, some Democrats are awfully sure of what isn't so. But it's worth a try.
