The "Fox Newsation" of the Republican Party.

Washington Post. Friday. The Congressional Budget Office (CBO), a nonpartisan, cost-counting branch of Congress, found that repeal/deletion/killing of the recently passed "bad boy Obamacare" health care reform would cost the nation's deficit a cool $230 billion dollars. The article also noted Speaker Boehner's tactical denial of the CBO's competence and the Republican's subsequent conservative report on the issue. Sounds like propaganda to me.

This is what nudges my navel: deflection of analysis completed by the most reputable numbers agency in DC is practicing more of the ignorance the American people no longer need. The Conservative refute of the CBO's findings on health care is the same type of pooh-bear logic Ray Comfort sports against evolution. Like a kid plugging his ears and stomping his feet, we've got some of the supposed leaders of free America booing mom's tussin. What do they do? Release THEIR OWN report on the issue. Instead of supporting their own evidence, they paraphrase the authority: using clever choppings similar to the ones the Beckster and Bill No Smiley use to increase their book sales on glass half empty truisms. For example, Washington Post states:

-Using a partial quote from a Congressional Budget Office study, the Republican report suggested that the nonpartisan office agreed that the law will cause significant job losses. In fact, what the CBO actually said was that the law will "reduce the amount of labor used in the economy by a small amount." In the Republican report "small amount" was replaced by an ellipsis.-

Cool, except the whole selling point of the repeal bill is in the name of it, "Repealing the Jobs-Killing Health Care Act." Weak start to an argument.

I am bothered by this. The 'pubs made legitimate promises to their constituencies to repeal the health care bill. However their pathway toward this has turned to misleading practices, sweeping facts under the carpet in order to ride populist fervor. The Fox Newsation of the Republican Party. It is obvious this implausible deniability must be coming from some higher monetary source. The tea party has seemed to dim since the election, but I'm positive that any ideas proposed by Democrats, even those with conservative roots, will meet surprising stopping power from grassroots people paradoxically working against their own interets. Look at these arguments and try and see if they make any logical sense? It's emotion manifested in angry rebellion, poked in the ass by a few big boys that know how trickle-down really works.
