Try FactCheck.org next time !
"Oops.
CBO’s assumptions did not factor in two recessions (2001, 2008), two wars and a slew of legislative changes from the Bush tax cuts to the Obama stimulus.
The difference between the projected surpluses and the actual deficits is $11.9 trillion over that 10-year period. Treasury concluded that Bush policies were to blame for 59 percent and Obama’s policies 12 percent. The rest — 29 percent — were what CBO calls “economic and technical changes,” mostly having to do with changing economic forecasts because of the recessions."
"Obama bears more responsibility than he is willing to accept, and misrepresents the Treasury analysis to minimize his responsibility."

Surprise-Obamacare Now Projected To Cost Hundreds Of Billions Less Than Expected
Amidst the dark skies of the Healthcare.gov launch, some daylight may finally be emerging with respect to one of the critical goals of the Affordable Care Act—bending the cost curve of America’s expensive healthcare system.
According to a New York Times report out Tuesday, the Congressional Budget Office has quietly removed hundreds of billions of dollars from the projected costs of Obamacare, primarily the result of an anticipated decrease in the federal government’s contribution to the Medicaid expansion program along with the projected cost of the subsidy payments to those buying private insurance policies on the healthcare exchanges.

May I suggest they elect a government that will change these laws and policies that they so object too.cltrat said:
Its not that hard, the liberals did it. I mean, c'mon man, if the liberals can band together and elect a government to do there bidding, surely the conservatives can... Cant they?
I'll give you a few helpfull ideas:
Stop acting like you hate everything.
Stop alienating each and every person that isnt exactly like you.
Stop killing everything, that includes people, plants, animals, you get the idea...
On second thought, you dont stand a chance, maybe you should just hate, disrespect, and start killing each other.... Im sure the last conservative standing would think he won... Lol

Which is what will happen in 2016 when the full brunt of BaRack-O-Care is hitting Americans squarely in the wallet.
Probably also why Justice Robert's deemed BaRack-O-Care a "TAX" ( though Demorats claimed it wasn't) which will make it easier to repeal !
