Can you make any corrections to the analogies I drew?

Damn lefties.


Dick Cheney has said on more than one occasion that, “Reagan taught us that deficits don’t matter.” In fact, he said that to me personally once.

They only matter if the resulting funds are used on Democratic constituents.

Those things were bills. Look up 'How a bill becomes law.'

Hey do not throw a wrench into a weak economy during a fragile recovery and the Tea party
won't be likened to terrorists

Like the health care law itself?

Cheney wouldn't survive in the new debt worried GOP.

At the request of Boehner, the CBO did an estimate on how much money the government would save if the GOP repealed Obamacare. Unfortunately for Boehner, they found out that the repeal of Obamacare would negate the $109 Billion in savings over the next decade that Obamacare would bring.

Amazingly, the House budget (that they have refused to take to conference with the Senate for the past 6 months) relies on Obamacare savings to make their numbers add up. It seems to me that if the GOP were honest (I know that's a stretch) that they would include a $109 Billion tax hike in each and every effort to repeal Obamacare.

Because it repeals taxes lol. I agree that heathcare is a looming disaster and something needs to be done. I would prefer a page by page reform of existing government regulations before adding another 10,000 pages, and perhaps when the economy isn't limping, but that's just me

Seriously at this point I think they should just implement it, but well meaning folks can of course disagree. I'm sure there's some good in there too.
