re: #9 Buck

This is what I call “Obama’s Rope a Dope”.

Anyone who supports OR CRITICIZES a “forthcoming proposal” is shadow boxing. There is nothing there…

Wait for the Bill to be in writing. Wait for it to be scored by the CBO.

CBO wont score a “forthcoming proposal”. only an idiot would.

Quite Concur. The answer to “Pass The Bill!” is “Put It In Writing!”. Congress should not allow itself to be stampeded into passing a $400 billion dollar bill. There is a process that such bills go through, and Congress should not hold a floor vote until that process is completed.

Obama needs to get his bill to Paul Ryan, so that the GOP’s numbers man can at least examine it.
