When BlogPAC joined the battle to save Social Security, we had brought more to the table than just another Political Action Committee account: we brought all of you.

The blogosphere success in reframing the debate has been a direct result of our ability to leverage all of your great ideas. The netroots nurture good ideas, regardless of the source, which allows our collective wisdom to overcome financial and distribution barriers.

Today, we need your help more than ever. The Social Security Administration has issued their yearly long-term projection report. So far this year, the SSA has been blasted for conflicts of interest, using the Trust Fund for propaganda, forcing seniors to listen to lies, and violating the public trust Given this recent history, it makes sense to conclude that the SSA cooked the books to support privatization. What we need to know is how.

In the comments, I'll post some of the best analysis I've seen to start the discussion. Please add your insights. Together, we can harness the power of the blogosphere and help save Social Security. Thanks, in advance, for your participation in this experiment.
