So, even the CBO can be party controlled?
Son of a bitch, why can't either side get something done without backstabbing and fucking the American people all the while?

So now, people are throwing the CBO out there like it's gospel? When in fact it was set up by republikklans like graham for their own controlled outcome? Is nothing sacred? I believe the cbo works with what is given them for the most part. So, if capone had given them all sorts of nonsense about himself, they would have come up with a glowing report.
Perhaps.

And NO, I wouldn't go with any SC suggestion from graham. And what part of making child care and drug control permanent does munchkin have a problem with, while he votes 800 billion defense contracts (A YEAR) with no plan of paying for?

Not long after the analysis posted, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi released statements responding to it, saying this is a "fake" CBO report because, they argue, any extensions of the programs would be "fully offset."

"Republicans did not include this important fact in their request," Schumer said in a written statement.

The CBO released a letter later Friday in response to Schumer's criticism, saying in part, "The modifications that CBO analyzed were specified by Senator Lindsey Graham and Congressman Jason Smith. The modifications would make various policies permanent rather than temporary, making the deficit larger than the version of the bill that was passed by the House of Representatives would."
