Mostly right...

In an editorial titled 'Shameless Photo-Op' the New York Times comes close to the truth in noting that...
...the intended meaning of the photo-op was clear. In the hope of persuading people to privatize Social Security - a move that would only add to the growing debt burden for future generations - Mr. Bush wants Americans to believe that the trust fund is a joke. But if the trust fund is a joke, so is the full faith and credit of the United States.

Fortunately, the governments, institutions and individuals who hold United States debt can tell a publicity stunt from a policy statement. Still, casting aspersions on a basic obligation of the United States government is insulting and irresponsible.
Insulting and irresponsible, no doubt. And a violation of his oath to "preserve, protect and defend" the Constitution.

Insulting. Irresponsible. Illegal.

Impeachable.
