It's been 24 hours or so since Republicans gave out their version of a health insurance bill which is essentially the same as the one they whined about, and they are already working to discredit a non-existent report.
The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) is the agency which provides lawmakers and the public with an unbiased opinion of how much each spending bill will cost the U.S. taxpayer. They use a wide variety of assumptions to come up with their figures and have been doing so for decades.
Despite the expertise involved with these calculations, Republicans, who gleefully used CBO estimates for their disparagement of the costs involved with Obamneycare, are now setting out to vilify the same agency even before it reports on the costs of the AHA.
Hypocrisy knows no bounds. "See! See how expensive Obama's healthcare initiative is going to cost you. This CBO report tells the tale."
"What do those bureaucrats know? They're always wrong. Don't believe a word the CBO says."
