Bill hemmer is in for the fox report at 7 00 p. M. Eastern. Ill see you for fox report weekend. Dont move n a few seconds, my friend, neil, will bring your world to you. In that world, asteroids, meteorites, but were still here. Fox on top of the meteor and the meat head . Theres a lot of scary stuff outside our earth, the other proves theyre scarier stuff here on earth. Is it a spending problem in no. Its because we have a misallocation of capital. A misallocation of wealth. What . Ive seen the signs of the apocks lips. I just had no idea they would be dollar signs. Wow, welcome, im neil cavuto, good grief a meteor hitting russia, an asteroid darn near hitting earth and no less than a u. S. Senator hitting us with this. Everyone says we have a spending problem. When they talk about that, its like theres an assumption we as a nation are broke. Neil we are broke but do you see a pattern here . Not the meteor and asteroid thing, the spending isnt an issue thing. Tom harkin, nancy pelosi, barack obama, im seriously gingrich to think they are crazy. Theyre all card carrying members of the you the new spending planet earth society. No problems, no worries. Good god. To former Ohio Democratic congressman dennis kucinich. Congressman, a trillion dollar more going out than coming in. This would be a spending problem, would it not . Governments wasting money. It should spend less on war and give less to the pharmaceuticals. I understand what senator harkens saying. I dont understand it at all. When you say we dont have a spending problem, you are saying that a trillion more going out than coming in i didnt say that. You know what i mean. The 60 trilliondollar in debt. Weve known each other many years. In your worst days, and there havent been many worst days, you never said that. Thats crazy talk. Yet i her more and more of it. I read what senator harken said and what he was saying is we have so much money in the country, how can you say were broke . Hes right about misallocation but it would have been better to elaborate and this is his position, we spend too much on war and foreign intervention. Congressman, were broke. Were 16 trilliondollar plus in debt. Well be 20 plus trillion in debt. I dont know another way to say we owe more than were making. Thats the definition of broke. Theres no debating the underlying premise of what youre saying but theres a debate about the Monetary System that put us in this jackpot. Money equals debt. The only way to get money into circulation is borrow. Well never get rid of the scourge until we look at the Monetary System where money equals debt and the exponential growth of debt. Youre right, just a cost that makes it exponential at worst. What bothers me and you know this town far better than i. There must be a method to the madness. We can part company on who says what and what they mean but when i hear we dont have a spending problem and nancy pelosi saying the same thing. The president doubling down on hundreds of millions of dollars on new initiatives saying it wont add a dime to the deficit, someones smoking something. You need to you know how google has translate . You need to translate what is said on the floor. What senator harken said is we have so much money, how can we say were broke. He wants to take more money. I oppose. Well, neil, i oppose the administrations spending more money on war and interventions. Yes, you did. And i opposed this Medicare Part d give away to the pharmaceuticals which led big pharma name its price and get it. Were getting ready for interventions. Why do we have a blank check for war but when it comes to meeting the basic needs congressman, believe me, im the first to say everythings fair game. We want to trim the growth everything that has hit the table. When we talk about cuts and everyone makes it sound onerous. Were trimming off growth in programs that are never cut much when a u. S. Senator faces the American People like a former speaker of the house, like the president of the United States, like dozens of other prominent politician to say tell the American People, with he dont see a problem. You can stick your head in the sand and pretend but when weve spent ourselves into this fix and now were saying theres no immediate need to fix it with spending, maybe to the senators point we can fix it with taxing, thats screwed up. Is there waste, yes. Ive spent 16 years if congress and saw plenty of areas where money is wasted. But i think tomorrow harken tom harkin alluded to investigating in education. We dont have the money to invest. Where does that Investment Strategy come from . Hold on a minute. Were investing on a credit line. Are we thats true but i said we have to rethink this when looking at monetary policies. We have to start creating wealth in america. We cant be i agree, but you cant do that when youre in a deep, deep ditch. Sometimes the better part of valor, put the shovel down. Neil, weve got to be careful we dont cut our way into austerity. Congressman, you have no reason to worry, my friend. That will never happen. We will never cut our way into watch the sequester. Oh my gosh. Its going to peel off 80 billion in a 3. 5 trillion dollars budget. Thats our ruin . Well, it could push unemployment to 9 and impact the private as well as the public. Im glad youre here with us but when i see you in person, i want to throttle you. Im kidding. Always good seeing you. Good to be with you. I wanted with the washington examiner, david, you follow this as well. And you get a sense of what is behind this thinking. Because obviously theres a strategy here to dismiss the problem and say its not a problem. For the president to come before the American People and propose more spending and not mention debt, i guess theres no problem but there must a strategy to misrepresent things. Definitely. I think senator dodd said to me years ago, we dont have a spending problem, 80s revenue problem. A lot of liberal politicians like nancy pelosi, tom harkin, barack obama, all the white house has said the president does think theres a spending problem. But the way the philosophical world says were not taking enough money away. When tom harkin says theres enough money in the country, its just not properly allocated, that means people have the money and its not allocated to us so we can thats it. You hit the nail on the head. What hes saying is look, we have this country full of money. How much do you make . Give it to us. What is inherent in the message is we dont want to we like what were spending. The only way to keep it going is tax more or get more money from more folks but not the 50 paying no income tax. I guess i see couldntly finding creative ways to get more money to washington, not cut more money going out of washington. And to avoid and delay spending cuts as long as possible. What the democrats proposed on the sequester has been theyre trying to get instead of spending cuts, they want half to be tax increases. This is an attempt to kick the can down the road on trying to control spending. What you said before, how were never going to cut spending. Thats not true. At some point well reach the end of the rope and Government Services will suffer, and well have huge tax hikes and well slash spending just because we have no more ability to borrow money. It may be years from now but at some point your country looks like greece. Its a spit in the ocean. Thank you very much. I didnt want to get everyone worked up at home but im a numbers guy. I said the thing about the bush bailouts or the banks, was chasing good money after bad. This is not a right or left issue, its not a democratic or republican issue, were spending more than we take in and the tickets are coming home to roost. Were 16 trillion in debt. Liken that to you folks at home, if all your bills were pushed up to the limit and someone gets the idea to go on a vacation regardless of having no money to pay for t nothing to tap. You think that person was crazy. We are all taking a massive vacation and our leaders are the ones taking us on it. We dont have the money to pay for it. You dont have to be a democrat or republican, conservative or liberal, to see the simple math that were broke. When our leaders tell us were not broke, we just have to find more ways to get more money, be afraid. Be very, very afraid this that they dont know math and they dont know squat and were just grateful an asteroid didnt hit us . Take a look at earth as these asteroids. You have heard about marco and his water. What about mendez, who is in hot water. Another case of Mainstream Media picking sides. We just dodged a bullet from space but russia was not so lucky.

In russia arc meteor exploded injuring over 1100 people. Is it a matter of time till this happens to the United States . Brian, i know weve been lucky but in 1908 in sigh bieber, we present to lucky. Had that hit london it would have wiped out london. Do we keep dodging bullets here or what . Well, you could say yes. It is inevitable that Something Like this is going to happen. Things hit the earth constantly. Every time you see a shooting star or something tiny, something microscopic is shooting through the atmosphere and every year something size able. How do we see the asteroid and dont see the meteor . Im not a professor but im not actually an expert, so its okay. How do we miss that . The thing is, nasa really is tracking thousands of objects that are objects of interest near earth asteroids. This thing was small and frankly the direction it was coming from was towards the sun. So we didnt see it. Sometimes we spot things just days before they pass by. And some things we track for years in advance. So this we just barely or unfairly, we missed. We could miss other stuff. Should we pour money into equipment or technology that would see more of that stuff, however small . Im all for putting money into nasa. Its half a percent of our budget. Only a small fraction of that goes towards this, monitoring the earths asteroids. It might be important in the long run. But like i said, they do track some things for years. Theres many things that were aware of. But the solar system is not eight planets, there are millions of objects making up the solar system. You say youre not a professor, you come off as a very good one. Thank you very much. I appreciate it. Thanks. Neil is the economy about to take a strike . Look how Many Companies are striking deals.

David ion horn going after apple. Somebody wants to use that money. Its a temptation if its sitting there. Theyre looking at comparative returns and opting for deals. Somethings going on. Because the idea of cash on the side has been out there, now theyre opening up the wallets. Thats right. Z no question companies are hoarding cash but the deals are safe deals. When you see Warren Buffett buying heinz, what is safer than ketchup or mustard . Hes playing it defensive. Corporate executives, the people behind the deals, so called really smart money, they have been insider selling, not buying. Theyre the ones that have a view of the future. What theyre concerned about is the impact of payroll tax hikes, affecting consumers. We see that in retail sales but theyre concerned they see gasoline prices moving up. Some parts of the country, gas is up 50 cents in two weeks. Its important for investors to appreciate whats going on but remain vigilant and aware of the risks on the the horizon. To gerrys point, dell is the perfect example of what can go wrong if you continuous will i take extra money and sink it into your stock. They kept doing it year after year. Taking themself private. The only way to go is take yourself private. In the case of heinz, a very safe deal. What it says overall, the market is Getting Better for mergers and acquisitions. Part of it is negative in that maybe you hit the point you cut couldnt anymore to create profits. You shrunk your Employee Base down and have to buy your way to profit but were starting to see deals come back. Normally thats a bullish indicator. Is it this time . I think it is good news. I think that people c. E. O. S probably see better news than regular americans who are seeing taxes go up and gas prices going up. At the individual level its not great. On an national level, international markets, it may be a prettier picture. Maybe it could be whatever is going on across the globe, we look okay. Maybe thats the case it is what it is.

The house of representatives voting to extend a pay freeze to all federal employees despite the president s wishes and despite nancy. I dont think we should do it. I think we could respect the work we do. I think its necessary for us to have the dignity of the job that we have awarded. The republican congressman who said theres nothing about dignity in what theyve yielded. Congressman, good to have you. Hey, neil. What now . Where does this go . It goes to the u. S. Senate and i think that harry reid should take it up. Most voters do not believe that members of congress, the executive Branch Officials or the Vice President deserve to have any pay increases this year. So its a common sense measure and saves 11 billion over ten years given our fiscal situation. A lot of people look at 11 million over ten years with budgets of 3. 5 trillion. Its a spit in the ocean. I understand its a start but youre about making a statement. That if youre not getting the job done, you shouldnt get paid more for it but nancy pelosi talks about the dignity of your work and that this is essentially undignified. What do you say . Part of the reason we have to do this is in response to her speakership, frankly. When she was making comments about obamacare that you have to pass the bill to find out whats in it, americans thought that process was undignified. So were trying to change the way congress is viewed, trying to put ourselves out there, willing to sacrifice to show the American People we dont want to repeat the shenanigans that went on when she was speaker of the house. You talk about the next stop being the senate. I doubt the senate would take this up. What are you left with here . Theres a lot of Democratic Senators up in red states and should be asked, do you think your leader should bring this bill up. If they say no, theyll cause problems for themself back home. The bill should be taken up and voted on. It enjoys broad support from the American People. We got 40 to 50 democrats in the house. No, you did not do too shabby. It makes a powerful statement. Its a statement about responsibility. Thank you very much. Thanks, neil. The nightmare cruise may be over, but is the ship really about to hit the fan for carnival .

The donger the defense secretary nomination mess drags out the more time critics have to dig stuff up. Mcfarland warns time not on chuck hagels side. Good to see you, explain. He has two weeks where hes going to twist in the wind and his opponents will find out every dumb thing hes ever said. Every speech hes ever made. Theyll find out how many overdo Library Books he had. Theyll try to paint the picture of a unqualified man to be secretary of defense. I think when theres Something Like this and it drags on, whether it ultimately passes, and john mccain was here saying he thinks we would be approved. He wouldnt vote for him but he would be approved. The upshot being that what happens is most nominees withdraw. They say its not worth it and to save further embarssment they go quietly into the night, would he . One of two things, either hell withdraw maybe the white house says this is also a distraction from the president s mission. We think its a good idea if you withdraw. If he does, there are two candidates behind him. Number two at the defense department, ash carter and michelle flowknow. Both very well respected. Say he does get confirmed. Hes a weak secretary of defense. Hes going to have two major jobs that the president wants him to do. One, cut defense and deal with the United States military, deal with the generals. Make sure theyre onboard and, number two, go up to capitol hill and let the congressmen and senators know we may cut a base in your district, we may shut down an Assembly Line but we want you to go where it. You have a weak secretary of defense who may not be effective. We hear the administration thought there would be a bill cohen on hair their their hands that. They would win over republicans who were skeptical to the approach of Foreign Policy but chuck hagel and bill cohen were could not be further apart and the administration miscalculated. I dont think they did their homework. They didnt check out the fact hes not wellliked. Personally not wellliked. I talked to senator imhoff who has issues with his policy on israel and iran. Mccain said he may vote against him but thought he might pass. Then lindsay graham. Those are strong conservative republicans and theyre not buying it. Let me tell you one thing, at the end of the day, if what the republicans want is an ineffective secretary of defense, why . Theyre not going to agree with obamas policies. Ettes far better to have a weak secretary of defense than a strong one who shoves the president s policies down. Neil that might be the choice were left with. Kt, always good seeing you.

Oscar pistorius, crying in court today as he faces murder charges in the shooting death of his model girlfriend. Nicknamed blade runner for his artificial legs, the first double amputee to compete in the olympic track events. A long line of heroes who could do not wrong suddenly looking very wrong and not very heroic. You say get used to it. Youre right, lately anyone you cast your bets on and really hold up, theyre knocked down. This is a particularly tragic case, if it proves true. Whats going on . Well, neil, the moneys so great and the pressure is so great, you often see a lot of professional athletes, theyre not coached or educated and a lot of times you get a downward spiral. I would not look at an athlete as a role model. You emulate their passion and drive but you dont necessarily emulate them as a person. As we can see in society, theyre letting us down. I dont want to link Lance Armstrong, as far as doping up and lying, with a guy who could be a murderer but i want to get to the bigger point of how we hold these folks up. Whether its a tiger woods or inning mcguire, stars who seem bigger than life and theyre letdowns. They still debtence get endorsements. You always see the megastars get the big money and get the endorsement money. It happens every year as new talent comes into the lesion, you often see theyll get the shoe deal, the trading card deal. But sometimes you have to move on and kind of look up to other people because as i said, a lot of times you cant look at these guys as role models or people to emulate outside of some characteristics such as what they do on the playing field. A lot of times, the bad boy image can be converted to fit them. Like in the case of tiger woods and i dont know about pistorius. But it does almost beg a creative way for them to make money regardless. Oh, youre 100 correct. Sometimes the bad boy image sells. And redemption and the story sells. Each individual athlete is always its always different. Theres always a different case scenario. But if you look at this as a whole, you have to look at each individual athlete and decide how their story ends. Some fall, some hit it big, and some redeem themself. It was an inspirational story, just as Lance Armstrong was. Steve, thank you very much. Thank you very much, neil. Neil this just in. After showering up at least one triumph passenger is lawyering up. The lawsuit coming as we get a better look at the conditions aboard the i infamous cruise li. You said only one has been filed. There will be many more. The cruise line is this should have, could have known the vessel was in trouble. It had propulsion issues weeks before and they did nothing about it. Once the fire was set and the horrible things started to happen, they could have gone to mexico but that was too expensive to fly them back so they kept them in the boat for four to six days. They couldnt helicopter them food . I understand boats and choppy waters. They didnt have contingency plans. Its a tough thing to get out of. Heres the problem for the passengers, just going on a disaster cruise and living in deplorable conditions, described as a cesspool. Literally. Surge leaking, your ticket to go on that cruise, that fine print as a binding contract and the cruise ship has every single contingency covered for bad conditions. A bad cruise, so the only way that someones a bad cruise that would involve you might you know. You chip a tooth on. Right. I dont think it allows Something Like this. I do. Because those provisions are written to strictly in favor of the cruise line, that no matter how deplorable your cruise is, i dont think youre going to recover in any court of law. Neil i dont know. For injury, if youre shell a kid with a Lemonade Stand on the street couldnt be there. For physical injury, yes. You can recover under maritime law. This is federal law, too. Stricter standard than your regular civil law in the United States. This is Government Maritime law. Courts again and again have not adhered to the contracts. Youre right, in this the you have fine print that barely any of us can read. You might have deaf indication to deal with. It doesnt say that but theres an exempt for negligence and foresee ability. If the passengers show the cruise line could have or should have known this was a possibility, they have an absolute case. But what if carnival i find it funny when they do this, tickets for another right, like you want to go back. Neil but thats what theyre offering. Heres the distinction under law here. If theres negligence, and i agree on that point, if theres proveable negligence there can be recovery but only if you have physical damages. Just saying i suffered Emotional Distress because there was a feces leaking off the walls, not enough, unless you can show that you went to a psychiatrist meantimes and documented the. Im not one to sue easily but if there was a young bride and her husband and their entire extended family on the boat, fair to say not what they counted on. Now, you cannot tell me that they dont have grounds to say, this was not what we signed up for. Small print or not, this was stupid. Unless theyre physically injured or emotionally injured. We dont know. They suffered for days. You made my point. You said or emotional injury. Thats emotional injury. No tell you what. Yes, theyre angry and yes, they were damaged emotionally. Stuck on a boat with his inlaws for more than a week come on. Feces . Im sorry, you have to be physically injured from your Emotional Distress. Your hair has to fall out. Feces . Thats enough to make your hair fall out. There you go. I dont want to stew but by the way, in a pattern of behavior, come on. Thats the problem and thats where they can show negligence. Why am i taking your side . What is today . Y is neil . I dont know. I dont know. By the way, senator harkin is misunderstood. When we come back, when we come back, this guy sips and the media rips.

Headline after headline in the days following his response. This amid allegations democratic senator bob menendez involved potentially in a prostitution scandal and worse as a investigation widens into dealings with a donor. You wonder, where is the intense Media Coverage for that . Not so fair, not so balanced. I thought it was a brilliant examination on your part. Not fair at all. Its not. Two high profiled senators, both of hispanic origin and one is involved in a serious scandal and we dont hear anything about it. The major negotiation dont cover it. When you hear about menendez in print they fail to mention hes a democrat or theyll say leading senator and not mention his name. The rubio thing is overblown where you have reputable anchors at networks asking if its a career killer. Its amazing. And we its unfair and i think its hypocritical. I was thinking of the case of senator cruz in texas, in a bankrupt, abrupt, in your face latino. Newly elected senator not to be amired and the menendez thing is given a pass. That shouldnt shock me but the observe obsession over the water thing maybe speaks of rubios feared influence. Exactly. Hes the Worst Nightmare for democrats because he comes from this background he really speaks to why hes a republican and uses his hispanic heritage, working class,ion, energetic, smart, hes hard working and he might make the difference. In the last election, if mitt romney had done better with the hispanics in four states, not even the majority but even better in colorado, nevada, new mexico, and rubios home state of florida he would have won. In 2016 we go put our eggs in ohio the Mainstream Media rooting for the democrats is a problem. What if it were the opposite and it was marco rubio on the charges of maybe financial inpropriety and donors. Under age prostitutes. They would have free rein with that. Menendez, swigging water, wouldnt be covered. If youre going after one, go to both. If you attach severity to a water incident, go equally against the one thats more owner russ. It has the more to do with the fact marco rubio is of hispanic heritage and republican. The left, the democrats and friends in the media must destroy him because he could make the difference. They must sweep under the rug the incident, the scandal, with a democratic hispanic senator because hes so sensitive with the vote and its so valuable and republicans are so close, the democrats, its fine if they want to do that but when you have the media help them, hide the menendez schedule and make a scandal out of the fact marco rubio took a sip of water, incredible. I dont care what side youre on, thats glaring in the coverage. Sherry, a very interesting read. Thank you very much. Thank you, neil. Neil now i know why the president doubled down on spending.
