The New York Times is reporting that liberal Democrats are already resisting efforts by the Obama administration to do something about Social Security, and that in response, Obama shelved plans to announce a Social Security task force at today's White House "fiscal responsibility summit." If this report is accurate, that would actually make the summit even more of a farce than it is already shaping up to be, given that there's no way to address this nation's long-term fiscal nightmare without dealing with Social Security.
