uswest riskier it was not able to be worded off but the politicking around
the continues with its interesting videos of uh... david gregory being
talked about being a report for us you have heard the apparent doing my job but
it was a sequestered outward awful what is interesting and what it makes it so
easy to fault both sides
incorrectly but the mainstream media which regulated
the sort of the they've bought into the republican talking points
that that this was the that the
it's just politics as usual
yeah is that there was no even fake
showmanship
putting it off
and we'll congress was in session
the president's hours that's there was no grandstanding the president never
said
consulted let's go to work let's do it
which makes it very for beer by into this
talking point that
though that the either that it was a while this fall or
that simply it's just a case of all my got throw the bums out nobody wants to
do if there
yet i think it
usually you would see that sort of grandstanding i mean obviously o'connell
was going around the country in trying to make his case but it seemed like e he
knew a couple weeks in advance that they were going to have to feel so he wasn't
even really trying to plan for a deal he's obviously playing along to him
and but anyway we are
so uh... bainer is going to try to make the case as he has for the past few
weeks that you know we would have done something that the democrats just didn't
have the land but he said oh mom i had no plan out exactly
uh... and for once actually did very very uh... responds an interesting one
don't listen we've known about this for sixteen months
time yet even today there's no plan from senate democrats for the white house to
replace the sequestered these offsite here i think it was just not true they
made it very clear as the president just did
he has aplenty he's put forward
that involves entitlement cuts that involve spending cuts that you've made a
choice as have republicans
tumi tax loopholes in fights and you'd rather have those
and we will all these are there but that's just nonsense
today on a plan of why wouldn't senate democrats who had passed
for wanna uh... i'd like to send in their life is like a thousand of them
right there's like there's a little somerset have regrets or whatever so the
democrats have more than fifty
they password cannot bear and their like what's the problem what good republicans
battling the report that and i'd
i get to the highest oracle he would have to be in crazy town for them to
just blocking everything that happens because it happened at resorts literally
this congress allows congress' filibustered
more things in the senate this dahmer's is direct of course is pointless to pass
the plan
here's the one that said
they should have made a bigger show
i would have been megami
i get to the poor
to some extent i get the president not participating in the theater of come
into session
and i get as you mentioned correctly
go around the country politicking campaign-style with tom brokaw of course
the precise there
i don't think tom brokaw understands the world we live in order to that level
telling
that so the president did sort of these campaign-style events
again playing the longing casinos there's no deal
that said i would still go through some accusations
that everyone would know that he would do it all by my has a plan that is
essentially
two dollar spending cuts for every dollar and revenue mostly by closing
loopholes
capping the number twenty eight percent for people over a million dollars yeah
the popular plan that's a likable plan supplant makes sense no matter whether
bob woodward talks nonsense about moving the goal post
or bill keller in the new york times comes up the pieces were talking about
out of almost all he was talking in general
for allowing not so much specifics but still two ways that
the the conservative but you don't want to watch dives for crying out loud
so
but that said making it clear effort in the senate and make them filibuster i do
not understand why they don't make them alibi i think it look i are used to feel
that way in a and a lot of different issues that spending gap so it's gonna
be filibustered so elephant make a big deal out of it
but it seems like it even if you make them filibuster at this point i wonder
how ready the media would actually be to to to frame it to say what it is
eventually eventually eventually day yes
based maybe months maybe years a
but it's not like this sort of intransigence on the part of the
republicans is about to stop him
like we're not like about to turn the corner we're about to get reasonable so
i think you gotta play this marley and you know look man what that with the
sort of
for like the term mainstream media but the conventional wisdom group think in
washington
to change that
hit him over the head a hundred times eventually the group they change to wear
like hey this war iraq was a bad idea you know if it took five years i mean
you'll have to lose a couple of
ten twenty thirty thousand soldiers at that point you heard about the civilians
brother was so that's why i would have hamburger helper kudos to david gregory
for at least correctly acknowledging that no there is a poor but there is a
democratic plan
and it could pass the senate if there were two sixty votes
yes i just i feel like both
both o bombers approach to this and also being married just feels very weak
compared to
now usually pretty deft would like obama came out on friday and said you know
these are unnecessary cuts they're they're gonna hurt people like
he said that sort of stuff in bay has come back with dole he just wants more
lax drug have more taxes but thats
they say that every day anyway even if there's not you know uh... sequester
going up to that point john there is any significant abdication of leadership
by the president
and by congress
and i got by congress of course
but by the president image there's not even the appearance of leadership and
was very clearly happening in this is uh... i think undeniable it for this is
very easy to blame
both sides
no where it's undeniable
clearly both sides or waiting
for poll numbers and how it plays in the media which is why the white house
objected so strongly
woodward's
angle on it and then his accusation of the attempt to the threat
i have my described a dangerous genes for early environment so because they're
both look in to see
we think the other guy's going to take
political heat for this if we play it right
you know a lot of americans are getting that message i don't know about
everybody but a lot of and get it and that's not gonna make anybody feel good
about anybody's yes and then we we have seen we we showed you last week a couple
of early poll numbers that showed at least in terms of federal spending that
specifically about the sequestered a federal spending people do support obama
more
and leave it still uh... more than fifty percent but the hot the percent of
support hands obviously higher than the republicans
and but also be simple there was a show the people are really paying attention
sequester anyway but only twenty seven percent at least database
heard what they feel is a great deal about what's going on even though it
feels like it's on the news all the time it's a terrible work
it's a tolerable terrible word almost as if by design intended to make it a
little word instantly bored by their work
in these lists for class
like something master of his google it might be a movie
all right you don't want the girls and i don't know if all of us who got the
overdosed on pretty
but but
but you're right instantly says to you sequester the words walk
uh... react webster
