Mitt Romney repeats claim that repealing health law saves $95 billion a year ...

~snip~

Our ruling

Romney said repealing the health care law would save $95 billion a year. But that only accounts for outlays in one year, 2016. Because of the revenue sources that the law established, repealing it actually adds significantly to the deficit over the long haul, according to the CBO. We rate Romney’s statement False.

1. I wonder where Republicans get their facts from?

Other than thin air, I mean. I know they never use recognized independent and neutral sources, like the CBO.

3. Oh, but he is using the CBO! Just not the whole story! Imagine that ........

For backup to his savings claim, Romney’s campaign cited an analysis by the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office, the agency that independently calculates the cost of proposed laws. In February 2011, the CBO published an analysis of a Republican measure to fully repeal the health care law. The analysis was for H.R. 2, "the Repealing the Job-Killing Health Care Law Act," a simple repeal bill that House Republicans approved on Jan. 19, 2011.

On page 5 of that report, the CBO projected $95 billion less in outlays in 2016 if the law is repealed.

But it’s important to note that repealing the health care law doesn’t only cut spending. The law had many moving parts, some of which were revenue sources to offset the spending and reduce the overall federal deficit.
