ObamaCare more expensive than Obama and Democrats promised $1.76 trillion and rising over 10 years: CBO

We all knew that the numbers Obama and the Democrats were quoting as they shoved Obamacare down our throats was a bunch of hooey. 

Washington Examiner reports President Obama's national health care law will cost $1.76 trillion over a decade, according to a new projection released today by the Congressional Budget Office, rather than the $940 billion forecast when it was signed into law.
