out for the rich, that will happen, because it ain t gonna happen, but you re saying they republicans are going to buckle. congressman cantor either failed english class or logic class or history class because these tax cuts for the rich that bush did twice resulted in very little economic growth. we saw only 1 million jobs created in the bush years, 22 million created in the clinton years. there is no real history illustrating these tax cuts for the rich result in jobs. it s extending unemployment benefits that creates economic activity that creates jobs, not giving a millionaire an extra 10 or 20, $30,000 in tax cuts that they likely won t spend because they re already buying what they re going to buy any way. you re the best there is in this argument. what bee does jon kyl have in his bonnet that he wants us to go back to the cold war? is he in bed with the craziest of the neocons? why does he want to kill this
what you re telling me is no compromise whatsoever on the bush era tax cuts? listen, matt, one or two things is going to happen in january. either taxes go up or they stay the same. nobody s getting a tax cut here, so there s no compromise or not on that particular issue. well, what do you make of that? i mean, he s certainly squirrelling around there a bit. the bottom line is the american people have to have their taxes go up in january. the republicans are saying hold out for the rich, that will happen, because it ain t gonna happen, but you re saying they republicans are going to buckle. congressman cantor either failed english class or logic class or history class because these tax cuts for the rich that bush did twice resulted in very little economic growth. we saw only 1 million jobs created in the bush years, 22 million created in the clinton years.
they played in the election? the fact is again you have two conservatives in the race. an incoming class that is probably more diverse and more reflective of a growing conservative majority in this country than i have seen since i have been here in washington. and these individuals will be a allowed to vote for which conservative that they choose. i mean again these are two conservatives, neither individual could ever be accused of being anything but a conservative. chris: but real quickly you are not willing to guarantee there will be if not in that position a member of the tea party in the leadership? well, i think if you look at the tea party the tea party is an organic movement that played a tremendously positive role in the election. certainly produced an outcome beneficial to our party when you aring picking up at least 60 some seats, that is something that i think the tea party has done which is fiscal discipline and we will be focused on that. chris: congressman cantor,
in the basket of borrowing $800 billion to throw into the economy last year. bret: when you could hear them individually, congressman cantor and congress woman debbie wasserman schultz talked about the freeze. it was troubling when she said we need to keep people in their homes and what she should have said is keep people in homes they can t afford. the banks are guilty of sloppy paper work. you see democrats using it as political football but we don t have examples of people saying they have been foreclosed on for no reason, you know, wrongfully foreclosed on. what you have is politics about this and this will you make the foreclosure market move smoothly and until these properties can turn over, you going to have the real estate
is he and other republicans playing up this republican pledge to america that john boehner unveiled a couple of weeks ago? it seems that we heard a lot about it initially, haven t heard much about it since, are, is he encouraging republicans to use this as they run in these mid term elections? that s a great question and one i ll put to congressman cantor i think you re right. the pledge hasn t been talked about that much around the country and it s interesting, there was a lot of fanfare back on september 23rd when it was rolled out. i have a question for you, was it clayton who said that sandra bullock s movie the net was a classic. what other classics do you have, clayton? bret, what other high p profile o reilly guest was in that movie. i don t know. my other classics, the ghost busters, princess bride, star wars.
