When will you people realize that BOTH sides have run this rig into the ditch? Both sides have spent our money like it was theirs to do what they wanted. The whole of Capital Hill needs to be hosed out with a fire hose, set on high power.

So easily manipulated by the Republican Machine. Take a look at this story from Forbes, and follow the links to get the true story. (See link below) Must be those crazy Republican accounting techniques. You know, the ones where they allocate delegates to the losers of their primaries.

The Affordable Health Care Act cost has actually decreased. Boy, does this remind of the "swift boating" and "death panel" BS from before.

That's why the Republicans are totally - sm

out of control when it comes to healthcare.

They want to get in there and repeal it before Americans can actually see how good it is, because once it's given, the American people won't want to lose it.

Better get a copy fast; you are spinning out of control. But the Dems/libs are happy you got the talking points down.

Conservative-turned-liberal writer David Brock, who worked for the Times' sister publication Insight on the News, said in his 2002 book Blinded by the Right that the news writers at the Times were encouraged and rewarded for giving news stories a conservative slant. In his 2004 book The Republican Noise Machine, Brock wrote "the Washington Times was governed by a calculatedly unfair political bias" and that its journalistic ethics were "close to nil." And there is way much more if you care to know. So, consider the source.

Sarah Palin cited Newsmax first as one of her top news sources, and described it as "very valuable, very helpful."

(Newsmax parent of Washington Times)

Newsmax??? ROFL!!! Priceless!!!! - nm

Yeah like ANYTHING David Brock says - can be trusted

David Brock himself said he would lie, fabricate ANYTHING to get what he wanted, or to destry anyone he wanted, and had no regard for facts. Your post just supports David Brock's theory.

same thing Rush, Shannity, OReilly,Dick - Morris

CBO Says Obamacare Will Cost 2 Million Jobs' Worth Of Dec 10, 2015
Yes, that's right.  Enough hours will be lost to equal 2 million jobs. The further we get with implementing Obamacare, the clearer it becomes that it's a total bust, with exchanges failing, costs going through the roof -  and now this from the CBO, not some right-wing nutjob.  It's unlikely that there are many conservatives who are surprised.  In fact, it's all going down exactly as we predicted.   Even so, it never fails to stun liberals when ...

Obamacare Is Failing From Behind... His Goals For ObamacareJul 20, 2016
1) Have it collapse so that single payer can be implemented amidst the ensuing chaos. 2) Have that happen on somebody else’s watch. Obamacare was designed to fail so the Democrats could “reform” it with complete government provided socialized medicine. That is the entire purpose for it. Obamacare is designed to collapse so they can backfill the vacuum with government run socialized medicine. Eventually, everyone will be on some form of Medicare. I believe that was one of Bernie’ ...

Cost Of Getting Braces Going UpJan 11, 2013
Obamacare Medical Device Tax: As of Jan.1, Obamacare imposes a new tax of 2.3 percent on medical device manufacturers, including those who make dental braces. The tax is imposed on gross sales -- even if the company does not earn a profit in a given year. While the tax will be paid to the IRS by the manufacturer, the tax will be passed along as a higher cost of the product, ultimately to be borne by the parent buying the braces for their child. With the cost of braces being as high as $7,625 ...

Tea Party Could Cost Republicans In CensusApr 06, 2010
By John ByrneMonday, April 5th, 2010 -- 9:00 am Republicans were thrilled when Tea Party-backed Scott Brown won a special election to capture Ted Kennedy's Senate seat in Massachusetts. But they're not quite as thrilled with the Tea Party now. Angst at the government in power may fuel some conservatives to boycott the US census, costing their party coveted seats in Congress for years to come. Republicans could also lose seats in state legislatures if districts are redrawn. The US po ...

Raising The Medicare Eligibility Age Would Cost Patients About Twice As Much,Dec 06, 2012
"When economists and policymakers worry about the long-term fiscal crisis, what they’re mostly worried about is Medicare. That’s why a persistent idea during this fiscal cliff season is raising the Medicare eligibility age from 65 to 67. It’s an idea that appears superficially to have many virtues. Bringing the Medicare retirement age into line with the Social Security retirement age seems logical. The change is simple to describe to journalists and the public."  & ...
