13. None Of Romney's Proposals Can Be Scored By CBO

Which means that they are nothing more than talking points. And many of those talking points are in conflict with one another. Right now Romney is just saying trust me as he does his pig in a poke spiel. Listening to Romney is like listening to George W. Bush as he assured the American people that his tax cuts would pay for themself because they would create a surge in growth. Well, there was no change in growth and we were left with a $250 billion surplus that turned into a $1.3 trillion deficit. Romney, too, will explode the deficit while getting negative growth and job losses -- just like Bush did. And this time it will be worse than the Great Recession.
