The CBO said Bush tax cuts would increase the deficit, then they said it lowered the deficit, then it said it increased the deficit...

Which is it ? If you think they are non partisan, you're a fool.

I don't need luck. I'm successful but I want everybody to have the opportunity to be successful. I'm not going to protect a tax code that is fataly flawed. You and your ilk can suck at the teet of the Romney's all you want. I'm not.

Oblama guaranteed that if we passed his pork bill unemployment wouldn't go over 8%. Now his sycophants are championing 8.5% unemployment as some sort of great achievement. Next they'll tell us about his Nobel Peace Prize.

And let's not forget the CBO only bases those estimates on the numbers given to them. Basically, a sh*t in, sh*t out thing.

Too late, another poster already brought that up as some "huge" accomplishment.
