If CBO is "non-partisan" I'll eat your hat. If you have one left after the government gets through with you.

How long do we have to wait until Obama takes ownership of the deficit?


Not until all the bush damage is undone, his wretched tax cut expires (completely)...let's wait to the end of the man's term...ok? He's only been in office a little more than two years.

You realize that a goal of reducing the overall deficit by $4 trillion over 12 years is underwhelming compared to ANNUAL deficits of $1.5 trillion?


The deficit projections are not for it to remain at 1.5T...you knew that right?

And I thought ObamaCare was supposed to REDUCE the deficit, according to the "non-partisan" CBO ...


That's still the projection...but you realize that it does not come into effect for a couple of years still, right?
