CBO: Obamacare Repeal Would Save $1.4 Trillion - By Andrew Stiles - The Corner - National Review Online (http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/260153/cbo-obamacare-repeal-would-save-1-trillion-andrew-stiles - broken link)

By repealing those coverage provisions of PPACA and the Reconciliation Act, over the 2012-2021 period H.R. 2 would yield gross savings of $1,390 billion and net savings (after accounting for the offsets just mentioned) of $1,042 billion.
Yes, we all knew if you take out all the "assumptions" CBO had to consider from the deceitful dems, if you take out the budget gimmicks and trickery, the true numbers would come out.

In total, CBO and JCT estimate that H.R. 2 would reduce outlays by about $604 billion and reduce revenues by about $813 billion over the 2012-2021 period.

What? You mean because the numbers are in your favor suddenly you feel that everything the CBO says is "true"?

It is how they get their news from FOX and paranoia of the day from the talking heads. Cherry Picking is best, that way they only see what they want

Let me rephrase, Casper the original assertion is precisely correct and fully clarifies the truth about Obamacare. How can you not see that?
