Are you absolutely sure your location is correct in your profile? You should double check that... War has nothing to do with this.. The fact is the liberals cooked the books and pulled some numbers out of the air, paid for votes and crammed this down the throats of folks who did not want to vote for it..

It is mind numbing that liberals refuse to see what the village idiot in the whitehouse is doing. To be honest, I would have rather had them elect th town drunk..

Here is the report. Please tell where says anything close to what the Washington Examiner is saying?

You're too lazy to even research this for yourselves.

No wonder you vote GOP.

You need to read further folks.. Stopping at a point that it is convienent is not good form at all... I think the real number is 1,762b total cost to government.

That you would write this without being able to source this so called 1.7 Trillion figure? .

No, not at all.


That's what white, elderly, poorly educated, GOP voters do.

They believe things without being offered evidence.

Medicare is slowly bankrupting the US and got a big push from Obama and his healthcare nonsense. Tax receipts are at the lowest levels in some time. How are we supposed to pay for this nonsense? Green our way out of it? That seems to be the answer to everything coming out of this administration. What has that gotten us since the implementation of the stimulous bill?? NOTHING. We don't dump these idiots in charge we won't survive four more years of this nonsense that is a guarantee. I thought we could but not anymore with all the bailouts and money being thrown by the fed to europe and money thrown to prop up the stock market. We are toast. Wait until Russian and China declare they are gonna buy oil in non US dollars. It's coming soon. All orchestrated to perfection by Obama and his communist friends. He's actually not the idiot all his supporters are.

It's real simple. You raise taxes on the wealthy and cut defense spending. Along with reasonable, moderate cuts to Medicare involving lower payments to health care providers, insurance companies, and mild patient care rationing.

You actually are standing in the way of all this because you fall for GOP propaganda every time. You simply believe and repeat everything they tell you.

Get it through your head. YOU and other right wing voters are the reason for the budget deficits and sky high health care costs.

I don't need a source.. I can actually do math without a calculator.. Imagine that. Even more remarkable, like most of us elderly minorities, I can even think critically for myself... A skill set you may want to try to develop at some point. Perhaps before you begin dealing out your smug and condescending attitude, you may want to get out a pencil and paper. (Those don't have batteries. This hint will save you some time looking for them.)
