What publicola missed is that it’s already happened to the vets. It started there with people who have a fiduciary managing their VA benefits. Moving from the VA to the SSA is the direction of travel, not the other way around.
I’ve been periodically reporting on stories about the VA doing this since early 2014 at least, and I noted in that story it wasn’t the first time I had written about it.
The thing about Obama that’s different from other anti-gun president is that that the others would run a gun ban or a crime bill or whatever up the flagpole and see who saluted it. If it failed that was pretty much spent; political capital gone, move on to other issues. It was more political than personal.
Obama, on the other hand, hates us with a flaming passion. He hates us personally, he thinks we are bigots and racists, and on top of that he hates us for being the only interest group to successfully defy him.
He’s not making political gestures, he is taking every possible action to make our lives miserable that he can sneak through, and he will keep doing it until he is kicked out of office, and then he will probably dedicate his life to building an anti-gun political movement to continue screwing us (between golf games and vacations, though, so it won’t amount to much).

I shoulda been more better clear. The VA has been doing that to vets, but there are a lot of vets who aren’t in the VA system. By adding SSA to the mix methinks Obama is hoping to catch the vets that the VA is missing. I think that’s the main reason for expanding it to SSA. Getting non-vet old folks is a bonus, but the main prize is netting those men & women who did one hitch & aren’t getting benefits from the VA, but perhaps are getting benefits from the SSA for whatever reason.
