Artificial Stupidity: How the Democrats Decieved the CBO to Get Their “Reduces the Deficit” Claim…

The CBO has very strict rules about how they “score” a bill. Most importantly, they have to score a bill — or “conceptual language” in a non-bill, as we have here — according to what is written therein, even if……

Back in 1990, the US govt seized the Mustang Ranch brothel in
Nevada for tax evasion and, as required by law, tried to run it. They failed, and it closed. Now we are trusting the economy of our country, the auto industry, health care, and the banking system to the same dumba**** who literally couldn’t make money running a whore house and selling booze!

Well, yes, except with the health insurance yahoos. They turn down benefits AFTER the fact.

What idiots. That 1930’s practice is exactly why their necks are on the chopping block today.

Unbelievable business practices, stupidity 101.

I’d be shocked, except I used to work in business. It really is just like a small DC bubble. They honestly do manage to think nobody will notice.

At least with the current system, you have options, Like legal action, charity, or just out-of-pocket. With OboobyCare, your totally SOL. Legal action against the Fed Gov’t? HAH! Charity or out-of-pocket? The doctors will be behind schedule with OboobyCare patients. Who will see you?

My hopes are that Baucus being from Montana rides horses and on his next trip home he falls off the horse and breaks his lying neck.

Yea, but you guys are forgetting that everyone will have a piece of paper stating that they are ‘covered’ by medical insurance and they can frame it, hang it on their wall and smile at it all day…but if they ever need medical ‘care’…well that’s completely another story…

1. “Stimulus bill” which does not stimulate the economy…but which greatly increases future taxes and destroys jobs.

2. “Climate bill” which does not affect the climate…but which greatly increases taxes in the near future and destroys jobs.

3. “Health Care” bill which does not deliver health care…but which greatly increases taxes immediately and destroys jobs.

Does anyone else see a pattern here?

And don’t forget that the Bush tax cuts are set to expire with no hope of being permanent. Nancy Pelosi/ Barack Obamao are salivating at having more of your money to spend on social programs.

Obama is a megalomaniac who thinks way too highly of himself, but n fact he is not even very smart. Bush was much smarter, he could REMEMBER a speech, this guy can’t if he cannot read it he is lost. He also knows little about history and only knows how to say: let me be clear. He never even published an article in law school, probably because the choosing of articles for publishing is an anonymous process and he could not say: hey I am barack hussein obama you should chose me cause of my name and skin color and radical beliefs. He is dangerous because of his inflated non-deservedly ego. He is a lost soul who is dangerous, very very dangerous because he controls so much now. God help us. He will help those he loves and love him, but I pray he helps this country again. I just don’t think this country deserves it any more. I pray I am wrong.

The question: is Snow listening? She is such a trader, people need to contact her, even if you don’t live in Maine. She will affect the whole country so people from all over need to contact her and express their disdain. I also contacted Baucus though I am not from his state to tell him how I feel. And I feel these people are imperialists who simply want to impose their will thru government on all of us minions, in their sight. I did not say that, but did imply it. If this passes, most of our rates will go up significantly and this will hurt this country, badly. WE need to fight and the way to do it is go after Snow. I think she is the only one who is waffling, but correct me if I am wrong.

I was glad to read your post. A couple of commentors on this site like to deflect serious deserved criticism from Obama’s actions by pointing to some minor obvious defect.

The leftist Democrats can only succeed in a nation of idiots and fools . . . fortunately only half of this country falls into those categories and therefore we may still be able to survive.

At least with private insurance, your covered from the day you start paying premiums. With this system, we’re paying premiums for three years before we start seeing coverage.

Frankly, the real news is that the mandates kick in 3 years before the benefits.

Honestly, no program has ever been introduced this way.

It’s absurd.

That should tell everyone that a) they aren’t even confident that their plan will work as they advertise or b) they flat out know it won’t work. It allows them to get elected before we see the results of their mess.

It is of the same transparent motive behind not pushing the bill now. They want some R’s behind it so the blame can be shared even though it’s not necessary.

Pure treachery in what they seek to do and how they are going about it.
