Nada, Zilch, No Way Jose or Joe or Mary!

The Congressional Budget Office issued a report that “repealing Democrats’ healthcare reform law (Obamacare) would INCREASE the deficit by $210 BILLION over 10 years” YET Republican House representatives voted to repeal Obamacare for the THIRTY-THIRD time on July 11, 2012 FALSELY claiming that the Act was a “jobs killer” and a “burden to small businesses”.

Didn’t THEIR 2010 Pledge to America, specifically state that they wanted to “reduce the federal deficit”?

I guess GOP congressional House representatives’ and senators’ “deficit reduction“ campaign pledge is just about as credible as their campaign pledge to create jobs during the 2010 Midterm Elections - nada, zilch, no way Jose or Joe or Mary!

If they keep voting on it, it's going to cost $210 billion anyway. nt DCKit Jul 2012 #1
