Seems the CBO has already qualified those projections......if Medicare is cut by 500 billion. Whoops...something neither side is willing to do.<br /><br />Don't hinge your arguments on CBO figures folks. Remember their Obamacare cost projections are based on 10 years from 09 to 19, not taking into account over the ten years the total costs which do not crank up until 2014. Also based on Bush tax cuts ending in 2010.<br /><br />http://www.nytimes.com/2011/01/08/health/policy/08cong.html?pagewanted=2&_r=1&ref=politics1carpehttp://www.wral.com/golo/profile/3557769/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3768055264021643103.post-91572011484623585712011-01-08T18:51:00.418-08:002011-01-08T18:51:00.418-08:00There's a fine line between tragedy and comedy...There's a fine line between tragedy and comedy.Elliot Firestonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16019466174066786185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3768055264021643103.post-17683835127326379322011-01-08T17:50:31.485-08:002011-01-08T17:50:31.485-08:00Arizona is becoming a hot spot for bad things.

First their backward stance on immigration, their crazy-ass governor, their tampering with Medicaide, and now some nut-job shoots up a political town hall meeting, killing at least 6 people and seriously injuring a congresswoman.

Remember what happened in the Clinton administration and it is evident that Obama has things exactly where he wants them.<br /><br />As the lame-duck session showed, Obama is re-taking control. His popularity in the polls will slowly go up in time for the 2012 election. <br /><br />Now Michelle Bachman will throw her hat in the ring for President and we see just how crazy politics is becoming.<br /><br />I agree, the Republicans have turned the proceedings into a circus. Comedy is evidently not hard for the GOP. They are quite funny as it is.Don Powellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15561121437193717451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3768055264021643103.post-35252253886450742512011-01-08T11:16:50.885-08:002011-01-08T11:16:50.885-08:00...and the circus is just beginning....and the circus is just beginning.Sarah Walkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10106899188121145811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3768055264021643103.post-43220022352960901492011-01-07T23:51:04.997-08:002011-01-07T23:51:04.997-08:00The health of the American people should be more i...The health of the American people should be more important than anything.<br /><br />The Arizona "death panels" are a good example of what happens when we don't fight for the less fortunate.Sherry Zimmermanhttp://www.digitaljournal.com/user/424799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3768055264021643103.post-36434943994702455842011-01-07T23:25:42.144-08:002011-01-07T23:25:42.144-08:00the CBO is way off base... and the health care bil...the CBO is way off base... and the health care bill must be repealed because it is one big mess and needs to be rewritten from scratch. <br />and the Repubs. are doing a good job so far.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3768055264021643103.post-27328320186137178772011-01-07T22:46:00.898-08:002011-01-07T22:46:00.898-08:00All this in one week?

They may not die, but they won't get re-elected if they act like this. I predict the Tea Party will die, though.
