Social Security Games

President Obama has warned threatened that there won't be enough money to pay Social Security checks if Republicans don't agree to new taxes AND continued spending.

Which is patently false.

Moreover, it is the Executive Branch (Obama) who makes the decision whether or not to pay out Social Security checks.  Let's say this one more time:  If folks don't get Social Security checks in August, it's Obama's decision.

Oh, and by the way, I thought all the money was socked away somewhere, ready and waiting to be paid out to Social Security recipients?
