Why would ANYONE actually bother to count the "Doc fix"?

When they have been kicking that particular can down the road ever since it was first passed (what was it? round 8 years ago or something?).

That revenue (first claimed in a Bush budget) ain't never going to be realized 'cause they will never, ever reduce doctor payments that much... so it would the the height of silliness to 'count' it here!
