Senator Alan Simpson Calls Seniors ‘Greediest Generation’
Therefore this, from a man in Montana ….who – like the rest of us –
has just about had enoughHey Alan,
Let’s get a few things straight…
1. As a career politician, you have been on the public dole for
FIFTY YEARS…2. I have been paying Social Security taxes for 48 YEARS (since I
was 15 years old. I am now 63)3. My Social Security payments, and those of millions of other
Americans, were safely tucked away in an interest bearing account for
decades until you political pukes decided to raid the account and give
OUR money to a bunch of zero ambition losers in return for votes, thus
bankrupting the system and turning Social Security into a Ponzi scheme
that would have made Bernie Madoff proud…4. Recently, just like Lucy & Charlie Brown, you and your ilk
pulled the proverbial football away from millions of American seniors
nearing retirement and moved the goalposts for full retirement from age
65 to age 67. NOW, you and your shill commission is proposing to move
the goalposts YET AGAIN…5. I, and millions of other Americans, have been paying into
Medicare from Day One, and now you morons propose to change the rules of
the game. Why? Because you idiots mismanaged other parts of the economy
to such an extent that you need to steal money from Medicare to pay the
bills…6. I, and millions of other Americans, have been paying income
taxes our entire lives, and now you propose to increase our taxes yet
again. Why? Because you incompetent bastards spent our money so
profligately that you just kept on spendingeven after you ran out of
money. Now, you come to the American taxpayers and say you need more to
pay of YOUR debt…To add insult to injury, you label us “greedy” for calling “bullshit” on
your incompetence. Well, Captain Bullshit, I have a few questions for
YOU…1. How much money have you earned from the American taxpayers
during your pathetic 50-year political career?2. At what age did you retire from your pathetic political career,
and how much are you receiving in annual retirement benefits from the
American taxpayers?3. How much do you pay for YOUR government provided health
insurance?4. What cuts in YOUR retirement and healthcare benefits are you
proposing in your disgusting deficit reduction proposal, or, as usual,
have you exempted yourself and your political cronies?It is you, Captain Bullshit, and your political co-conspirators who are
“greedy”. It is you and they who have bankrupted America and stolen the
American dream from millions of loyal, patriotic taxpayers. And for
what? Votes. That’s right, sir. You and yours have
bankrupted America for the sole purpose of advancing your pathetic
political careers. You know it, we know it, and you know that we know
it.And you can take that to the bank, you miserable son of a bitch.
Senator Alan Simpson’s comment about seniors reveals the contempt elected officials feel for the American people. They pander to us when they want to be elected and then loot the treasury of taxpayers dollars. The people deserve better.
I am hopeful that others will send copies of the anonymous reply. That was worth reading. I think anyone that intends to saddle seniors with defecit reduction is in for quite a surprise. I for one will take to the streets of Washington, DC in protest.
It is high time the public stopped coddling the nonpartisan corruption in the nation’s capital. The state on Congress is shameful!
apparantly this guy is pure trash and has no respect for seniors, for whom without their prior sacrafices he would most likely have his cushy job—seems to me like his constituents would fire him—I would!!!!
not only is this guy arrogant but does not have enough guts to publish his e-mail address——-wonder why? The people that elected this idiot need to replace him
ASAP; they could get a “crackhead” to do as good as he does!!
Alan Simpson is a retired Senator from Wyoming. He was the Co-Chair of the Budget Commission where he exercised his basic passive aggressive personality to the max. I would say he is a lame duck citizen as opposed to a lame duck politician. The email is from a reader.
To jriley@…….., I must say thank you for expressing it so clearly. My sentiments exactly.
WAS HE BORN WITH HIS HEAD UP HIS BUTT OR DID IT GROW THAT WAY??
You have to excuse him he is out of the same mold as about 95% of the rest of the politicians
BET THIS ALAN SIMPSON CANNOT AND WILL NOT RESPOND
should alan loosen or tighten his “black belt in bull shit”???
Here’s a old geezer that’s lived by sucking on the tit of the American public all his life and anything he says is totally gutter bull shit. This man is what’s wrong with our country today. Who in the hell does he think he is. He’s never held an actual job in his life. My damn takes pay this puke’s wages and retirement complimented by his free government health care. What in the hell is wrong with the people in his home state for keeping a blubbering ass like this in Washington?
A little research into why Senator Alan Simpson left the Army will tell you the, “Paul Harvey Rest of the Story.” Alan is one very conflicted soul. Tall men get away with alot. Don’t know why either.
It is so sad to constantly see the deteriorating mental capacity of our politicians and leaders. For instance, the Social Security system is already in big trouble because of mis-management and now they decided to CUT SS taxes by 2%. What the hell are they thinking? As I keep getting closer to retirement they keep moving the opportunity to do so. And why don’t they raise the limit on those making over $106,800 – they can afford to pay a little more. Take the unbelieveable pensions away from the politicians and make them pay into – and depend on – social security just like everyone else. They are the greedy ones.
Do a little more research and you discover that an inordinate number of the elected class are on their 3rd and 4th pensions. That is one of the most insidious and financially cancerous occurrences at the City and State level. And they are breaking the bank. With no names mentioned I can tell you of at least 9 City employees who have retired and gone to work for the University of Arizona so as to collect the next pension. I say NOT! Only one pension per customer.
The guy from Montana is 100% correct. Representatives and senators should have two terms and two terms only. Their health insurance should be just like my health insurance …. medicare; their retirement just like my retirement …. Social Security. If we were all on the same plan guys like Simpson would make sure that no one stole any of our funds or sent a non-member to the doctor. What we need is a way to have a re-call election, take away all their bene’s and make them ride at the back of the bus all the way home!
Al Simpson is a sad excuse for a human being. Here is a man who robbed the citizenry with all of the ripoffs he pulled during his sorry period of behaving as a corrupt U.S. senator. Thank goodness he is no longer a senator. He would make all those corrupt politicians currently in Washington, DC, look like angels. He is definitely a low-life who has had a dirty career as a politician who is a liar, thief, and cheat. He is a traitor to his country.
Send this letter and ask all to send it to your senator and house members
that our publicly employed by legal Republic Americans to honor their
oath or vote them out.

Obiviously Mr. Simpson doesn’t realize bullets can cross party lines. Lot of retired Marin Snipers out there.
