into law late last night, it happened after midnight, i do believe. so the deadlines ahead, well, about 90 days from now we might be back at it again. here was the question from the room at the white house last night. mr. president, do you think it s going to happen all over again in a few months? no. bill: will it? republican congressman charles pew stainny of louisiana, he s on the house ways and means committee. good good morning to you. thank you for your time. as we await the president, we may interrupt you. our viewers are aware of that as well. are we just back here again in a matter of months? well, i hope not, but i m concerned, that is one of my biggest concerns. it s incumbent upon us now, especially members of the ways and means committee where a lot of these big issues need to be worked out whether it s a deficit reduction package or pro-growth tax reform, we have to get to work. and the dysfunction we ve seen in washington which came to a head over the last three we
issues in these issues. and, in fact, when he has initially engaged, he walks away from the deal and changes the goalpost. and that s no way to negotiate in good faith. bill: sir, thank you for your time. charles pew stainny s republican congressman from louisiana. went a bit longer than we expected, sir, but i appreciate your patience. thank you, sir, we ll speak again. mart of moments we do believe, heather. heather: charles krauthammer had something interesting to say, he compared it to, you know, lucy when she s holding the football down, the peanuts episode and every time is it charlie brown goes to hit the football, she picks it back up. he compared that to, you know, how president obama negotiates. bill: we should hear from him in a matter of moments, huh? heather: very interesting. wu bill this ll be the first statement he makes since it was signed and passed by the house late last night. don t go anywhere, just want to get a quick commercial break. it s a two minute timeout
