here's uh... paul krugman
quote it's appalling on every level
and now uh...
he's choreographed that john is that's what they're gonna judges quoted
saying that uh... geiger
uh... you might be replacing geiger obama is if you get rid of them with
quote the rotting corpse of andrew mellon
anywhere from elena was
he was herbert hoover's treasury secretary who according to hoover told
on the quote
liquidate the workers
liquidate the farmers
purge the rotten this
that sounds like a republican whatever her
but betty
some shades of lieutenant governor from south carolina there in answer to
at our top economic times is liquidate the poor
this is the direction that they were country's leading economists think the
dove ahmed ministrations going it km quoting edge rebound that's pretty hard
okay
well as well from program
it's a betrayal of everything or bombers supporters thought they were working for
just like that or bombers embraced invalidate the republican worldview but
more specifically is embrace the policy ideas
of the meant he defeated in two thousand eight
correspondent lights
i feel like it idiot for supporting this guy
you begin to get the sense of how angry people are over this
and i got more here way i'd go to stymie johnson
nine as our client had a great piece that he's not economist is a writer for
the war of watchin impose uh... we got marked although it was normally
understated economist going ballistic
i-ten quantities that that was all day long but i want to quote you someone
else okay
and he is candidate brocco bomb
and i remember when he thought that doing discretionary spending was a
terrible on or freeze on discretionary
let's go to that
beget comeback
and tell you
while he's
wide this is such a terrible path
let's watch of odd
eyes didn't resign
i've every thing but defense section of fares and entitlements and interest i
think we ought to seriously consider with the exception so karen corrections
national defense and several other vital tissues as you know that well the
problem is spending freezes and using a hatchet we really does help there are
some programs
that are very important to remember from one increase early childhood education
uh... and the notion that we should freeze that when there may be for
example this medicare subsidies
i think doesn't make
nukes
beethoven's second it's important for the president
to set a tone that says
all of us are going to contribute
all of the sort of make sacrifices and
it means that
yes we may have to cut some spending although i disagree with the mccain
about an across-the-board freeze
that's an example of
on unfair burden-sharing
as using our captured
to cut the federal budget i want to use a scalpel so that people who need help
are getting help
and those of us like myself and for mccain who don't need help
are getting
that's how we
make sure that everybody
is willing
to make a few sacrifice
syria
asleep and i think it's very commendable turn to work she's done in on behalf of
specialties uh... agreed
with that john i do want to just point out that
autism for example or other specialties
uh... will require some additional funding if we're gonna get serious uh...
in terms of research
that is something that every family that
advocates on behalf of disabled children talk about and if we have a
across-the-board spending freeze when i really do it
that's an example of i think the kind of
uh... the use of the scalpel but we want to make sure that were funded some of
those programs
but i i think that uh... we do have a disagreement about across-the-board
spending freezes that sounds good its proposed periodically
it doesn't happen and in fact across-the-board spending freeze uh...
is a hatchet and we do need a scout move because there's some programs that don't
work at all
there's some programs that are underfunded
uh... and
i wanna make sure that we are focused on those programs that work digenova that
whether the problem spending freezes you use in action where you need a scalpel
autobots so much bunker almost everyone all day long widow baba blessed in so
far
or k
i mean and what was it is it a hatch interest help i can tell before it
appeared that it was a hatchet now some of the scalpel
is now sunao ball is in favor of mccain's for books
and guess what we cases today of course this is not enough
about parts abar
if you give them a great natural again
living in a sense i want that
question are satisfied
and now three federal bomber
this has some flexibility so it's a spending cap overall right
but he can't move flooding around soda he would come back as i live in those
debates i said i want to be able to give money to some places and not to others
and he's gonna come turnaround so what what what i got a prisons
is spending cap but
but it means i can move it within departments
increases the department
one department
he's got a decrease in other depart
understand that project
he also has a chemo-prevention in this uh... emergency provisions
well you know if we really need something in emergency that we cannot
get funds for that
you know that's gonna be abused for
because part of this that's been frozen in the part that i like
is the agricultural subsidies
those course options that are telecast you know
now cause untold problems before the united states government and society
overall
using nato freeze those they're not gonna freeze those here you can call me
on internet ok we'll come back and tell you all a look at that it turns out it
was an emergency and one thing that they decided to
eight increase spending on
is the farm subsidies
white 'cause that's a political
not started and i don't bark eating all those form senators and congressmen
certainly let you know what that hitting big agriculture to let you know that
howell now
now that means if you increase the hose well you know decreases service you're
going to the poor even more
so if you like this proposal now why do you see its execution
okay
outlook
every department
these days is getting a ten percent increase every that's a lot okie lately
at some of the standard thing threat
time immemorial okay
but i was the increase last year versus right
now though i think ten percent of the right number that to me that seems high
to be honest
so if he came and said look i'm gonna do a five percent increase your but on the
do fifteen percent decrease here and has a reasons behind it
one capitalism cuz i do believe in reducing
but have you come in with the republican gimmick that everybody records to be a
gimmick
at the worst possible time and you do it
only to bow their head to the republicans
well then i'm not on board for that
that's crazy
and you really wanted to control the deficit you know what do you go after
defense spending
you can you tell the defense spending
is larger
all discretionary spending
combined
is not discretionary spending school soc purity medicare
medicated setup right
but intake
all of a discretionary spending
with us spending is large
so why don't you include defense fail although i was around five hundred
pounds like add that i can do it
like if you're not going to press spending which is all
loaded with pork
which is loaded with waste
hey you're not going to raise taxes under richest americans who already
benefited from this economy
well you're not really serious about cutting the deficit
your bank playing political games
and that's why i say
a hopeless
politician
i gotta give i'd so much once or come back to a little later pictures quick
no credit here
senator ben cardin which i did not expect
democratic senator from maryland so say you know what
uh... if you want to get serious
asia cut the faster
and i a lot of times the democrats say that 'cause they'll be scared to death
of the republic of being a model right is like you know where the biggest waz
is the best and he's the only that alone but this is
this is a nonsense political trick
score one for summer carton for maryland nicely done that's exactly right
if bob almond actual political cartoonist at this point i thought it's
the suspected does not
which is of
and perhaps the most devastating for not the policy implications today
but that implication political implication that he just never going to
do the right thing
never to have the courage to do it that we have the courage to take them off
well then you know
equal i'll tell you what date although when i see it it's kinda like or
birthday when he has the political courage is all you have a cut the hello
defense spending
levees garbage ok locate venam open payee what he's summa *** over
come after the rich i'm not gonna tactics the middle class
uh... their health care plans
about tax the rich uh... feed and pay for health care ok now have a
conversation
appeared as a reason for that
but he hasn't even begun to go in that direction if you ask
