CBO: Repealing Obama healthcare law will increase budget deficit


"Congressional budget analysts said Wednesday that repealing ObamaCare would increase the deficit by scrapping the law's taxes, fees and spending cuts.

The notice from the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) came ahead of Thursday's House vote on full repeal of the Affordable Care Act.

The CBO refused to provide a new cost estimate for repeal, saying there is too little time before the vote. But Director Doug Elmendorf pointed to an estimate from July 2012 that abolishing healthcare reform would raise the deficit by $109 billion over 10 years.

So the ACA isn't about healthcare afterall. It's about covering the defecit. The Dems better be careful if they start blowing this horn too loudly.

Although it would be much easier for the House to simply refuse to fund it, if it takes another 37 attempts, or 137 attempts to repeal that piece of shit law then they need to keep trying until it's repealed.

Run Hillary.

Get used to her being grilled at every debate on her negligence concerning Bengazi for the next 4 years. She will repeatedly be scrutinized for her apathy for the 4 people died because she did not give them adequate security in a know hostile region. Get used to watching her screech "What difference does it make? over and over on your television now. No doubt it will become a favorite GOP attack ad, unless she does something even more reprehensible between now and then.

I know I'm looking forward to it. I'm just wondering how long she lasts before she loses her cool like she did at the Congressional hearing. I have to admit, I'm also going to enjoy chuckling over the predictable wailing and gnashing of teeth from the libs when it happens.

But even if she manages the win, we get at least 4 more years of Bill, and that will at least be entertaining. Bill Clinton in the White House is always interesting. Hillary was really not even an interesting First Lady. So, we all know that Hillary will always be accused of doing whatever Bill tells her whether it's true or not. Love him or hate him, Bill Clinton has a reputation and a personality that will always make Hillary seem like a sad and unimpressive substitute. No matter what she does, she will stand in his shadow until her dying day. As a President, she will always be standing in his shadow at home and abroad. President Hillary won't have any real political clout of her own, and won't be able to push the lefts agendas as effectively as anyone else that might win the DNC nomination.

A Hillary Clinton Presidency is almost a win for the GOP.

Ever since the anti-Christ (Hillary Rotten Clinton) tried to float her shitty version of healthcare reform 20 years ago I have been saying that the easiest fix to healthcare issues in this country is to remove the words "over 65" from Medicare.

Essentially, as far as how it works (not the coverage levels), it's the same plan that covers congress.

Job done.
