His first estimate was based on the information democrats feed him, now he has better information.

" 'I think after the shellacking, as they say, within our caucus, a lot of people realize, ‘Hey, maybe you should listen to your constituents and vote your conscience,’ Boren said on Fox News."

I've always said that Democrats were learning disabled.

I berlieve Paul Ryan came up with $700B+ but at least the scammers of the CBO are getting closer to the truth.

Totally agreed. Democrats must have failed calculus if they do not understand the Laffer curve.

By the clever use of words Desm can say the CBO repoted repealing 0dumbocare would cost te Government money( Not us, but the gov’t)

so CBO says repleaing 0dumbocare will eliminat 540 illion is spending but also eliminiate 770 billion in revenue.
REVENUE my butt. it is taxes from us.
So if we repeal 0dumbo care w save 540 Billion in spending and let us taxpayers keep 770 billion o our OWN money.
Remember Dems think of it as the gov’t money which is why they can call it revenue

No they won’t report this. They will continue calling Boehner sun tan man and mocking because they read the Constitution.

The public knows Obama is known to cook the books and lie about numbers-unemployment- so they knew Anthony Weiner and Obama progressive commiecrats were lying.

The very small percentage that is the minority that is progressive will continue their lies. Including the progressive commiecrats that have infiltrated MSMedia .

By the time Daley gets there to try to save the sinking Obama boat, it will be too late. Obama could go far center right,right now-no one would believe him. On his upteenth vacation they said Obama read a book about Reagan and traitors; which book do you really think he read?

$540 billion is a large understatement of the cost of the program. The program does not reach full implementation until at least 2014. In addition, a large part of the costs will be hidden through increased insurance rates. A conservative institute estimated the cost of Obamacare as $2 to $6 trillion per 10 years at steady state.

Too many old folks will see a reduction in their payment for prescription drugs.... for now. Once you get people hooked on socialist fixes, it will be a hard time prying them off...

That damned prescription drug program cost me over $200.00 per year in insurance premiums which I am more or less forced to pay and the deductible is so high that I don't think it has ever paid for a prescription drug for me. Obama care only "helps" folks in the doughnut hole. You don't talk to many old folks, do you?
