Who's "we"? I've seen the tapes of that guy running his mouth but so far there is nothing proven. If it's true then I do not like it. I like my CBO to be non-partisan, why do you want it to be a republican tool rather than what it is supposed to be? You know anyone the republicans nominate for the job is going to be a partisan puppet so make the case for a change based on the results you expect.OK, that was a clear answer.No I do not agree, I said it clearly earlier.That wasnt part of what I wrote. That was a deflection.The part where you prove that a politicized republican ideologue as CBO chief is better than what we have now. Instead of just saying that guy has to go tell us how some supply-side free.market true believer is going to be objective and non-partisan.You ae ignorant, partisan, and stupid. This is the problem.I get it alright, you think the GOP is honest with their facts and figures, what a laugh. I have no such illusions about the democrats but I am not so sure democrats are doing as you say. From what I can see it seems the CBO has not been doing a bad job, it's just that their numbers do not agree with republican assumptions of how the economy works.
Jonathan Gruber admitted that was exactly wha tthe Democrats were doing--gaiming the CBO's rules to produce the results they wanted. What part of that did you miss?
So, gut check time: Do you agree that Democrats gamed the CBO system to produce the results they wanted?
Now, why do you not agree? Because we have a tape of Gruber saying that is exactly what they did.
