At least I have that...you give nothing but your words...

Giving the CBO's estimate is just giving someone else's words.

If those words amount to a coherent argument backed by specific factual claims derived from solid methodology than great, but presenting their statements like "X jobs where created", "unemployment would have been y", or "GDP was Z better than it would have been absent the stimulus", are not presenting any of that. They are just presenting assertions, or to put it in your terms they are "nothing but words".

To the extent the CBO makes a strong argument for those words, why don't you tell us it?
