>> No...of course. Particularly the work that's supportive of your views.

I've heard this same, ignorant argument time and again when arguing these issues with leftwingers.

It is beyond ridiculous and even a childish argument. CBO has a track record of failure in estimating the cost of health care programs. Just show us one that came in anywhere NEAR what CBO predicted. Even when they're wrong the other direction (as in Part D, where the Bush Plan resulted in an astounding budgetary success, now ruined by the Democrats), they're wrong badly.

Is that to say CBO is the gang that can't shoot straight? No, they're doing the best that can be expected with a horrible situation.

Why can you not see this and take a more reasonable attitude?

You remind me of employees in our family fast food business (those would be minimum wage employees who are overpaid given their abilities). You correct them about undercooking hamburgers, and next thing they are burning to bits. No ability to learn rationally, only to be instructed on keeping it between the ditches.
