Yeah wait a second, he sure inherited a balanced budget what with two wars being waged. And Bush’s unfunded mandates…Yeah, that Obama…How has he managed to ruin the country so quickly? With only one major piece of legislation that the bi-partisan congressional budget office says is going to reduce the deficit?

No.
The CBO is bound to take the claims that the legislators make at face value and can only look at a 10 year period.
So what the CBO really said is that IF the claims that are made are true, which they are not, then the next ten years it would, as fare as one can tell right now, reduce the deficit.
Nwo of course no social program ever has actually cost as much as advertised, the law was written in a way that the CBO was bound by law to say what it said and to claim that piece of talking point bullshittery on this board can only mean that you are ignorantg of the limitations of the CBO or you think that everybody else is.
Socialiced medicine will ruin you, trust me on that and I am 30 years ahead of the curve when it comes to that.
