i m often asked about specifically about our projections for medicaid and federal subsidies for health insurance purchased through the marketplaces as established by the affordable care act. they were prepared before the new administration took office and do not incorporate any effects of executive orders or other actions taken by that administration. we have no clear basis for judging how the executive order issued lt friday will be implemented, so by itself, it will not affect cbo s cost estimates for aca related education. now you see the live pictures of congressman mulvaney to see that to head the office of management and budget. just a few moments ago, socialist senator bernie sanders was pressing him on the issue of entitlement, demanded to know if the nominee will promise to tell president trump to not cut social security, medicare, and medicaid. interesting, mulvaney said that frankly those programs need to face cuts if we re going to get the debt under control. jenna: t
vicious aggressive joe stalin, we step in. now that was 65 years ago. there s no more stalin, the countries of western europe and central europe are now wealthy, the only thing that hasn t changed is we re still there protecting them from nonthreat. the answer is what congressman mulvaney and i are doing we don t like sequestration, that s a mindless way do it, but that does not mean you don t cut intelligently. the other thing i have to note from what you quoted about the loss of jobs, and i am interested in some of my conservative friends arguing for a long time that government spending destroys jobs, cannot create jobs, kaine was wrong, when weapons are concerned become the most militant canesy yans, government spending all of a sudden, not when it s highways or teachers, i think there s an inconsistency here and that s why i m glad that mick mulvaney and are working together to put
where the united states is engaged as george w. bush said in 2005, in the second inaugural address, all four corners of the globe, quote, to end tyranny. it s just not going to happen and we re going to bankrupt ourself, tom friedman, trying. couple things. one, i personally believe and felt we have four choices in afghanistan. lose early, lose late, lose big or lose small. i would like to lose early and small and because there s no win that s going to happen there, number one number two, we re going from an era where for 50 years this is an exaggeration, but generally speaking to be a president, college president, mayor or governor was unbalanced to give things away to people. entering an era to be a president, college president, mayor governor is going to be take things away from people. as the congressman says, you can grow without a plan, but you better not cut without a plan. if i want to lose weight i can lose weight quickly cutting off both thumbs. might have a little troubl
impair our domestic agencies. sequestration has been described many times to me as a doom s day device, as a threat that was designed never to happen. but the effects of sequestration are being felt right now throughout our industry. respectfully i urge you to take action to stop the sequestration process and ask that you do so soon. all right. this friday the house is scheduled to vote on the 2013 defense appropriations bill and defense industry executives like lockheed martin s ceo bob stevens are urging capitol hill to about come up with a plan to avoid $500 million in automatic defense cuts. according to a report by the aerospace industry s association those cuts could result in the loss of up to 2 million jobs. joining us now, democratic representative from mas chet congressman barney frank and republican representative from south carolina congressman mick mulvaney. they are offering a bipartisan
that look you re cutting too much when you re not. we haven t cut spending. se quest will be the first time if it happens we cut spending. all we re trying to do is freeze and slow future growth. here s the problem. high-ranking military guy told a friend of mine, tell frank he s right. you talked about 47 we would still have the triad to defeat the soviet union in the thermal nuclear war. we build up for a military threat and once that threat has diminished or maybe been defeated it doesn t go away. it s like a geological thing, layers and layers of very expensive ways to meet a threat that made sense at one time and you never cut them out as you just add them. congressman barney frank, congressman mick mulvaney, thank you very much. thank you, guys. still ahead. good luck and congratulations. thank you. dick durbin the looming fiscal cliff and his party s plan for the expiring tax cuts. keep it here on morning joe.
