information should be communicated to the public. in the past, including after the fbi announced that it was not proceeding with a recommendation to bring charges in this case, the white house did defend comey and you ve defended him a number of times. so is that a substantive shift in the language you re using today, that you won t defend or criticize him? the fact you re not defending him is that a signal to us that there is reason for the white house to maintain some additional distance here? well, i think, josh what i have observed in the past is that director combsy a man of inte teg grai integrity, a man of principle, a man well-regarded in senior igss by both parties, served in the bush administrationened got strong bipartisan support when his nomination to be the director of the fbi was considered by the united states senate. so all of those things are true. they speak to his good
next eight days. this is exactly what the trump side hopes happens is that the clinton side gets depressed. don t get depressed. you ll be really depressed if this man makes it into the white house. we re going to have a huge problem on our hands. i think we need to quit focusing on these e-mails. whatever it is, it s the e-mails by someone else s computer by someone else that had nothing to do with her. if i were her, i would be sick and tired of these men by now, and especially the sexual predator nature of both trump and allegedly weiner. i mean, this poor woman, hasn t she had to deal with enough men that this is just where i hope women who are watching this or going to be voting just said, i m sick of it. this is it. this woman has had to go through enough over these last 25 years. and she is there for the people and we re going to put her into the oval office. she s not going to do any harm

contempt for the constitution. you get somebody like jim jordan in there, a man of principle, did not vote for the crazy spending bill last year that went right through the debt limit and added to the deficit and then really start to see more money going to the private sector and start to get the economy back on track. rich, is this good or bad for the taxpayer, this chaos? it s good because mccarthy would have been a disaster. we know already he can t communicate very well and brings up the point. you not only have to have great policy as steve talked about ans pled people, you can have to have people to articulate why it matters to the american people and connect it to the economic growth. well, before we dump all over what boehner did and for all the dysfunction in the house and i agree there s plenty of it, deficits actually have come down under the tenure of boehner since 2011. spending also it hasn t really come down but not rising
gay marriage. the family has been to the building of this country. and climate change. we need a conversation which includes everyone. a church that hid from controversy. now led by a pope who supports it. pope francis isn t changing church teaching. he s expressing it in ways that are fresh and vigorous, surprising using colloquial language and emphasizing things which, perhaps, haven t been heard before. as he makes his way across america s streets, pope francis is the symbol of change. change in the form of a man. a man of principle and purpose. shaped by where he is from, focused on where he is going. and trying to convince a church and a world to accept his
