Remember When Pelosi + Obammunist Drones in The Senate Said Obamacare Would 'Save Us Billion$?'

How's that workin-out...


The Congressional Budget Office never did quite buy-into the Obamacare 'savings' spiel; their far-more sober assessment after 'finding out what's in it' produced a federal cost estimate of $944B for the decade (2010-2019).  

Yet last week Forbes took a fresh look at the CBO's lastest and found forecasts in a clear uptrend over the last two years, so much so that Obamacare's total decade cost now stands at an eye-watering $1.856 TRILLION, with over $1.3B of that deficit spending, not-at-all paid-for yet. Although the costs have already doubled, the article made it abundantly clear that most of this can still get far, far worse.


Instead of anything resembling the Democrats' hollow propaganda of 2009/10 we get tax hikes of over $500B... apparently in upside-down Barack's Bizarro World this is 'saving' you money. And
 even that isn't gonna cut it when you've legislated $1.86 TRILLION in new spending: without towering tax-hikes on everything that moves Obamacare will add more than a TRILLION DOLLARS to our already-grotesquely-bloated national debt... and that's the best-case scenario!


More charts -here-, it's shocking how the cost estimates have soared from 2010-2012... was the reality of the situation suppressed until after November 2010's mid-terms?

Also note that we gave Dear Leader another Trillion for a 'stimulus' bill that he said would have unemployment down in the fives by now, yet after a three-year-spending orgy Obama and his party sneer at any who dare ask them to work from a budget.

Instead of 'save us Billions' we got 'cost us Trillions'- along with vastly expanded government, more debt, and an unmanageable entitlements nightmare- meanwhile, NOTHING was improved.

Just who are these reckless imbeciles still planning to give Barack Obama another four years to finish-off what's left of this country- can't imagine the thought process would be there.

Tell every voter you know to vote the straight GOP ticket his November so we can deep-six this monstrosity and replace it with sensible, market-based reforms that cost little:

Those who perpetrated a FRAUD on the Congres, and the American Taxpayer, should be lined up and put in front of 2nd Amendment-abiding Citizens.
