one presidential campaign an attack goes unanswered festered and some people will believe it. the romney campaign needs to push back. you asked a question if it is time to take off the gloves. it is always time to take off the gloves when you run for president. jon: some people think slow and steady wins the race. that mitt romney has been somewhat cautious and he hasn t stepped on any landmines either. the fact is the charges against romney, that he has a different tax code than most americans, that he has offshore accounts, that bain moved money and laid people off and moved jobs overseas, those are factually accurate. this ad you just showed, it is terrible ad, first thing it does repeats a negative charge against romney. i think they should take it off the air. but they re not listening to me. so, you know, whether it is speed but this constant negative drive out of the romney campaign, the way chip noted he picked those guys off. huge money. state-specific buys and really negati
they think mitt romney is better for the economy than barack obama and majority of american people agree with that. jon: is the economy a millstone for the president, robert? oh absolutely. for both candidates because it is a millstone for the american people. american people want to know what is the romney plan, not just lower taxes and repeal obamacare on which romneycare was designed. the, the money question, barack obama and the democrats raised a lot more money in the first half of the year. they have as much or more cash on hand. jon: actually, they didn t report cash on hand, did they in the last go round. i don t think they did. that s right. one of the challenges for money, where are you getting your money? as this money comes in a lot is coming from wall street and lot of it is coming anonymously. anonymous money in american politics is anti-american in my view and a lot of people s view. i think it will be huge pressure on romney campaign to disclose where these big chec
results of this? one million percent. i believe in transparency but to what extent, at whose benefit? the board of trustees, people who are at the upper echelon of society, people who have already made money in this world, i would like to see how many of these trustees actually resigned. my guess is none but the people who suffer the most are the students at penn state. the penn state is now a shell of what it once was. these people now entering the work force are forced to be straddled with this report. my guess they will suffer tremendously. jon: success with honor i think was the sort of buzzword about the football program in particular at that university. i mean is that all gone? it certainly needs a lot of rehabilitation. one thing that the report makes clear that everyone in terms of the upper echelon of the university knew more than they let on. mr. freeh, impeccable credentials, i give credit to the university for hiring somebody like that to truly independently look into i
so we re, we re asking i think a reasonable request that they do not limit the reports to a certain number of pages. so they recently requested money for reprograming of funds. i think it s because they didn t ask a sufficient amount in the budget request last year. and i am sending notice to them that we re not going to approve any of those fund except for urgent needs for warfighters until they contact us and change this policy. jon: you mentioned that letter and i will read our viewers a paragraph from it. your letter to the defense secretary, leon panetta. you say this policy wreaks of obstructionism, a lack of transparency and is harmful to constitutionally mandated congressional oversight and national security. harmful to national security? that sounds pretty serious. in what way? we think it is serious. last year there were well sections in the report that were very important that
hiring. the president s solution is to take more money away from the very business folks we are counting on to create jobs that we need, presumably so he can spend it on solar companies and stimulus bills. reporter: senate democratic leader harry reid promises to vote on the president s plan before congress recesses in august. jenna: molly, thank you. jon: it should be an easy to treat medical condition but it is developing into a major problem. what does eating chicken have to do with a super bug? that is just ahead.
