Our Bully-in-Chief is at it again. His new target is the Congressional Budget Office (CBO). Remember last week when the CBO testified before Congress about Obamacare being a budget buster, and how it will drive up health costs? That report was a major blow to the President's push toward socialized medicine.
The report was truthful, but the truth does not play well in Chicago politics. In Chicago, when the numbers don't work, you don't change the program, you change the numbers.
And wouldn't you know, as a guest on this morning's today show, the President mentioned that he just had a meeting with the CBO (see video).

The worm turns . . .
Looks like socialized healthcare is dead, at least for now, but I would like the gov to take a look at some of obama’s reform ideas as well as tort reform.
He hasn’t even taken time to set his feet and get a lay of the land. Chicago thug politics.
Don’t you wish one time people would stand up and do the right thing for no other reason than it being the right thing???????? Where are their backbones??
Big Brother orders a Re-Write !
He isn’t even supposed to have contact with the CBO, he has his own office of budget and management, he is breaking the law.
Our DOTUS (Dictator of the United States) has overstepped his authority. Who will confront him? Is there anyone with a spine in our Government right now?
I believe the media is so willingly reporting this because they are trying to help Obama. They want us to relax and stop fighting this issue because we think the battle is won. Do not fall for this again! There were no PUMAs.
Those who live in states with Blue Dog leadership need to pound them and keep pounding them until the defeat is so humiliating that Obama won’t dare raise it for the rest of his term.
I think BO sees his bid to take over the health-care sector and present us with socialized medicine is circling the drain. And I certainly hope it is.
Just curious, what ideas are you referring to?
Don't expect Tort reform from the Communist Lawyer in Chief. If he were for that, he would have tackled that before even trying to touch the medical issue.
