Thats reality. The republican plan turns medicare into a Voucher Program that would end medicare as we know it. [inaudible] i think it is important for us to go back and talk to 30 seconds about what happened when we were here. We had a balanced economic plan in the clinton administration. We have all of these problems, catastrophes on the way, budgets are going out of balance, we have to fix them immediately. Not one member from the Majority Party has the courage to ask the wealthiest in the country for any contribution at all. We have this huge catastrophe. No one has the guts to ask them to pay a little bit more. The people making hundreds of millions of dollars a year. That does not make any sense we could take some of that money and soft in some of the blows soften some of the blows. We are going to roll back health care.

Crowd violence. What started as the peaceful protest over the Police Shooting of an unarmed teenager has become uglier and ever more ominous. The city has shut its schools, the National Guard is on the ground and the white house is dispatching attorney general eric holder there tomorrow. And maybe most sobering of all police say this tiny st. Louis suburb is now drawing troublemakers from as far away as new york and california. Anyone who has been at these protests understands that there is a dangerous dynamic in the night, it allows a small number of violent agitators to hide in the crowd and then attempt to create chaos. I want to encourage the good people of this area to come out and protest tomorrow during the daytime hours, make your voices heard, where you can be seen, and we are not the cover for violent agitators. Cnn has deployed its vast resources to cover all the angles of this rapidly developing story. Our correspondents, guests and experts will join to us wreak down all th
