about the nuclear program. do you see any sign of that? no, though i wouldn t be surprised if the iranian regime does a phone any fake towards negotiations to buy more time. they are buying time for the nuclear program to go ahead. it has been going ahead. i think the reason the president doesn t want to talk about the ream implications of having a dilutional and hateful iranian regime in power is is that if sanctions fail we will have to use force. i m open to the notion that heel end up using force against iran. there is no point in signaling that now. the more you put force on the table the more you might encourage those in iran to say wait a second, we are heading towards the precipice. he keeps the door open for negotiations. look at the way this is playing out. it is playing out towards the use of force against iran i think. chris: juan? i think ahmadinejad s statements at the united nations are evidence of the trouble he is having at home. i think the mullahs and
milktose and the people who wrote it weren t prepared to leave. chris: they want to go in the other direction. the point is we are pursuing a program which is getting our country back to work, creating manufacturing jobs where we lost manufacturing jobs under the bush administration and has a plan to get the budget under control. we adopt a pay the republicans passed programs and didn t pay for them. in this document, they don t want to pay for them either. in fact, in this document they want to create another $4 trillion in debt and they say the way they will solve the deficit problem is to cut nondefense, nonsecurity discretionary spending. they wouldste have to cut betwn two thirds and 80% of all discretionary spending over the next ten years. chris: i think it is more like 22%. i don t think so. chris: for the $100 billion in the first year. let s move on to another issue, taxes.
frustration. let s watch. i have been told that i voted for a man who said he was going to change things in a meaningful way for the middle class. i m one of those people and i m waiting, sir. i m waiting. i don t feel it yet. the president smiled but he liked like he wanted to be anywhere in the world except on that stool hearing from that woman. he had a moment and he could have responded with energy. the white house spin has been the president is not isolated, he goes out and hears these things. chris: i think he wished he had been a little more isolate. here is a black american woman speaking from the heart. she was no plant and that came from the left wing is she was a plant. she is no plant. velma hart is a real person who says she supported president obama and still wants him to succeed but it disappointed. is legitimate. here she is saying to him you better get up and fight and stop asking other people to do your battles for you. the republicans dominate the narrative o
thing is sitting out there ready to land on us in a crushing way. the public i think is more tuned to this and aware of this than ever before. younger people, you ask them about what they think they are get out of social security or medicare and they don t expect to get a dime. people are ready for this. people on social security are grandfathered in with their benefits in any serious proposal made. the republicans have come up short here and they may be behind the curve. the republicans may be, too, to the extent this is not a strong enough document and i think the public would absorb and accept and get behind. chris: for all the hype about the pledge i m not sure that it was the most interesting political moment this week and for that i want to go back to the town hall meeting the c nbc town hall meeting with president obama where a woman, a professional who voted for barack obama two years ago talked about her
kids and grandkids. chris: forgive me, sir,, isn t the right time to have the adult conversation now before the election when you have this document? why not make a single proposal to cut social security, medicare or medicaid. this was what happens here in washington. a short time after, i know, i have done this. i continue to do this in a more systematic way and had this conversation first. let s not get to the potential solutions. let s make sure that americans understand how big the problem is. then we can begin to talk about possible solutions and then work ourselves into those solutions that are doable. chris: congressman mccarthy, speaker pelosi says the house may or may not vote this week before they go on adjournment on taxes. i know that is one of your big issues. why? i think she is afraid. she has 37 democrats in her own party that say they want to extend. they agree with republicans in
