lying? how do you offer any lectures on responsible government, working hard? how do you offer i can even go to the issues that propelled me into office, on balanced budget, on small government, on fiscal responsibility. how did trump supporters offer any lectures in this northam issue? how does the republican party become the big tent of the future? the thing that i m struck by is that i think we had this quaint notion that racism is something really not only in history but ancient history and wes, i m looking at your biography, your great grandparents were chased out back to jamaica by the ku klux klan, is that right?
there s something to be claimed for a new kind of movement conservatism whereas movement conservatism in the postwar era was organized around hawkishness on the cold war and limited government, on fiscal responsibility. i think the elements are in place for that to be pulled together but no one s doing that. it s the first time that meacham s quoted anybody other than triling. so it s gotten small ball? yes, obama at least he s talked about hope and change. people had a reason to be optimistic and hopeful. i don t think too many voters are watching these ads and feeling optimistic and hopeful. people are going to vote to keep the other guy out to tell you the truth. that s what they re going to do.
a little daily rant and keli goff here to offer it up. hey, dylan. people end up going into politics or media because they can t do math including yours truly. but over the last week or so my joke hasn t seemed like a laughing matter. in fact, last week on this show when both senator reid and speaker boehner s cuts didn t add up by the congress budget office, dylan asked the question, are these two guys smarter than a fifth grader? much of the ceiling debate focused on the political positions, there appears to be one thing that helped americans agree on. we can all agree many of our elected officials know a lot less an finance and economics than those responsible for the financial future of an entire country should. more terrifying, many appear to know less about such matters than most of us to. i previously discussed on this very show hypocrisy of elected officials with their own financial woes lecturing the rest of us on fiscal responsibility.

livelihoods are as state here. they will pay a price in november for this, and they should. we ll make sure they pay the price because people are hurting. and the republicans are lecturing us on fiscal responsibility. they allow it to give tax cuts to america. the majorities el us in polling they would like more focus on the deficit than even spending on recovering the economy at this point. they are more worried about the deficit than the issue with using government money to rescue the economy. chuck, i know it is a big debate in the country, but here s the problem with abandoning the recovery and pretending we fully recovered and then to get into a deficit-reduction only strategy. look, we ll have a report by the end of the year by the physical commission. we ll have to make
