John,

If a fourth grader turned in the numbers the Congressional Budget Office just released, they'd be sent back to repeat math class. The latest report from the CBO is like a pot of gumbo without the fixins—bland, bloated, and missing the meat.

Their new Medicaid forecast reads like a fairy tale written by bureaucrats who haven't seen a grocery bill since 2002. Apparently, costs are going to magically flatten—even as inflation kicks folks in the teeth and our healthcare system teeters on the edge. Every Louisiana family knows health care costs are shooting up faster than a squirrel on a caffeine drip.

If you think the swamp's math stinks worse than week-old shrimp, you're right. I'm calling it what it is: all salt, no tequila.

Folks, not long ago, common sense was illegal in all of Washington, D.C. Now, it's just illegal between liberals' ears. Help me restore common sense!

Chip in $35 today to ensure that we give our future generations a fighting chance.
