Maguire: "Might this be a plan?"

Tom Maguire's on, and nobody can turn him off. He's making the same point made here multiple times over the last couple of weeks: Social Security privatization might be part of a larger strategy, and the back-patting going on now from its opponents might be playing into that strategy. Here's a quote:

Tom Maguire - March 8th, 2005

But the balance of manpower favors the Reps, who may simply have decided to engage the Dems on as many fronts as possible. In this view, Social Security is the stalking goat drawing Democratic fire, while other important bills fly through under the radar.

Bingo. Restrictions on class-action lawsuits and now the bankruptcy bill. Is it possible that Bush is going after Social Security (at least in part) to ensure that other fronts are left somewhat undefended?
