Yes and they have to work with the assumptions that the savings they talk of and cuts in spending will actually happen while you and I both know it isn't going to happen. Pure fantasy.

How does CBO score the troop increase in Afghanistan? Should we increase taxes to fund that troop increase?

oh bummer! Use the troops standing in between the feuding Koreas. I think they are already on the books. Then there are the troops "STILL" in Iraq, the war of choice war. Then there are troops Still in Germany and Japan. The number of troops or their costs shouldn't be the problem when the proper deployment of troops is the answer. Is the Afghanistan war still the War Of Necessity as previously stated? Was the anointed one wrong when he made that statement? comrade chartseer
