Default The Media's Report on CBO's Health Care "Score" is Dishonest

Here is the last sentence of the 1st paragraph of the CBO's "score" of the Baucus bill.

Quote:
CBO and JCT’s analysis is preliminary in
large part because the Chairman’s mark, as amended, has not yet been
embodied in legislative language.
http://www.cbo.gov/ftpdocs/106xx/doc...cus_letter.pdf

The letter is not a 'score' as the media and the left is calling it. It is a preliminary analysis of conceptual language. That's it. Nothing more.

Don't be fooled by the left's dishonest BS tactics.

More analysis:

The good news is these idiots are hell bent on pushing through legislation and can only keep the wool over the eyes of intelligent Americans for so long. When their employers tell them their premiums are doubling or worse and when their doctors tell them they have to wait 2-3 weeks for an office visit, they will open their eyes to the real failures in Washington!

Dan Mitchell discusses the CBO numbers on the Baucus Bill

"...not very realistic."

"people will change behavior..."

"...Public option is a ticking time bomb that will self-destruct on the tax payer"


Dan Mitchell is a senior fellow at the CATO inst.

The internet is alive with the sound of people analyzing the CBO's "scoring" of the Max Baucus aka Senate Finance Committee Health Care Bill. Before everyone gets too deeply into their thoughts, please keep in mind the following (get ready, all CAPS, bold, indented signifies a really important concept):

THERE IS NO BAUCUS BILL.

The CBO scored the concepts described by the Baucus Committee. There is no legislative text. None. Baucus and his Democratic colleagues refused to reduce their concepts to actual legislation prior to a vote. Here is the CBO's disclaimer:

CBO and JCT’s analysis is preliminary in large part because the Chairman’s mark, as amended, has not yet been embodied in legislative language.

The Baucus Concepts are disasterous, but that's for another post. For this post, let me get across a simple concept: THERE IS NO BAUCUS BILL.

Your esteemed Senators on the Senate Finance Committee will not be voting on legislation because THERE IS NO BAUCUS BILL.

Your esteemed Senators have so little respect for you that some of them are willing to vote in favor of legislation which does not exist because THERE IS NO BAUCUS BILL.

The actual legislation will be drafted in secret by Harry Reid and a few other people, including staffers whose names and political connections you never will know, and the resulting legislation will be rammed through the Senate and House before anyone gets to read and analyze it.

Months of debate mean nothing. It's all smoke and mirrors by people who think you are too stupid to realize what is going on.

Have I made myself clear on this? THERE IS NO BAUCUS BILL.

Mikulski Kills Bunning Transparency Bill

Sen. Barbara Mikulski (D-Md.) stops an amendment offered by Sen. Jim Bunning (R-Ky.) that would create a Senate rule to enact a 72-hour waiting period and a Congressional Budget Office (CBO) score before considering any legislation in the U.S. Senate and all of its committees from coming to the floor for a full debate (Oct. 8, 2009).


WTF liberals? What are you hiding?

why does it not surprise me that the media spin machine is running full bore with these numbers on a yet non existent bill?
