New to blogs/add Social Security to the agenda

Hello,
 I am new to blogs and blogging (yes-I've been resistent) but not to Common Cause.
 I am more appalled and discouraged by the news every day. I have burnt out a number of family members and friends by forwarding them information and requests from me that they get active.
 Looks like I'll find more like minded company here.  
 I hope that Common Cause will consider adding exploration of and oppostion to the Bush Administrations proposed reform of the Social Security program.
  Yes, the system has problems but I don't believe they are currently at crisis proportions and so much else is. The president seems prone to creating crises to further his own agenda and he needs to be stopped from over inflating the situation and jumping off the deep end again.
 One other quick observation from my first day of blogging-I didn't like the tone I sensed
in an exchange between Christian and non Christian-hope it's not the usual.
 Also I hope no one will feel compelled to correct my spelling for me when my meaning was quite clear.
 Okay then-blog on.
