Rammed through on the basis of a lie

Are you familiar with CLASS?  It's a provision within FHer-care.  During the runup to the ram-through of FHer-care in Congress, it was touted as a voluntary program that would be finded with premiums.  In typical Freedom-Hater fashion, it was actually a means to cook actuarial numbers so the CBO wouldn't think the whole thing was so badly underfunded after all.  But, speaking of actuarial numbers, some forecasters at Medicare tried to warn HHS officials in a series of e-mails that the whole thing was a disaster from the get-go.

We're just now finding out about those e-mails. 

Tyrants haven't a molecule's worth of honor.
