Dear President Bush,
Rep. Bill Thomas (R-CA), your point man in the House on Social Security issues, recently suggested tying Social Security benefits to the race or gender of the recipients.
I demand that you disavow this disastrous idea. There is no acceptable reason to link the amount of a Social Security benefit check to the race or gender of the person receiving it.
Tell Chairman Thomas and your other Republican allies that you will refuse to sign any bill tying Social Security benefits to race or gender.
Let them know, public displays of ignorance will not be tolerated. :D
