go to we got free lunch and that s po pork. brenda: and okay. steve, go ahead, weigh in on this? it s far worse than anything you guys are talking about here. it s not the political process. with a few notable exceptions, nobody in washington cares about the taxpayers. that s the problem here. listen,voters want to get rid of all this. they say it over and over again and if it takes a few senators want to do this, they insist on doing it, they insist on these things being included, all it takes is somebody to say no. oh. brenda: gary b, gary b is dying to get in here. go ahead. well, i don t agree, i don t agree with steve because he says the voters want to get rid of it and it s kind of like the not in my back yard. only the flip side. they want to get rid of it unless my gosh, you re going to take away that bridge or that pork you re going to
thanks for watching fox & friends ts rning. tomorrow, the creators of the the bible mini series are going to join us, controversial, and don t want to miss that. jesse, you re here tomorrow. jesse: am i coming back tomorrow? see what the bosses say. see you tomorrow. brenda: game on! march madness taking over. no, not on the court, in d.c. with pork, congress passing a bill to keep the government funded for another six months and it s chockful of pork goodies like watershed rehe billtation, environmental medication programs, whatever all that means. so, is this the march maddening group that will never get spending under control? hi, everyone, i m brenda buttner, this is bulls and bears.
build in my neighborhood. forget it. and that s you re wrong with that. you are wrong about that. tom coburn got elected saying i m not doing anything for oklahoma. that was oklahoma. why do we have a balanced budget amendment? this isn t about the voter, it s about lobbyists. you just said the voters wanted it. brenda: okay. the voters want to get rid of it. they don t want this pork barrel spending. they d rather have a balanced budget. they would, they ve said it over and over. don t blame them, it s not their fault. the fault is here in washington where i am. brenda: okay. john, why do i care about this? like i said we ve seen pork and tender loins and pork chops, and you name it in washington. you re making me hungry, brenda. come on. for years and years and years. what does it mean to our economy? what it means to our economy, the lawmakers, what gaur gary b is correct. voters are not against this, voters are against this.
either. i believe you could. and finally, this isn t about the voter, it s about campaign contributions. that s the motivation for this stuff. not votes. brenda: all right. raising pigs, that s one thing they do well. all right. okay, thanks, guys. well, these guys want but the pork is getting leaner. brenda: okay. these guys want to keep the spending going. government unions out in force this week, blasting budget cuts in d.c. and in michigan, they re fighting a law many say will put people back to work. so, is big labor putting its interests before taxpayers? the cavuto gang is on it at the bottom of the hour. up here first, step up or pay up, get on the scales or get hit with a fat fine. and get this, someone here is fine with it it. fidelity is there for your personal economy, helping you readjust your retirement plan along the way. rethink how you re invested.
it. so, this is clearly a ouiji board, and for guys to get he elected and taxpayers didn t vote on it. brenda: john, you re the only one to shut toby up. it s a gift. brenda, here is my question, going back to what steve said. and i guess you re saying that if every congressman or senator was like tom coburn, they get elected. i d like to see the congressman that ran in iowa, now what? no ethanol subsidies, forget it, no aid to you corn farmers here, now, elect me please. i don t see that happening. brenda: steve. you know, tom coburn said he would vote against ethanol subsidies or the equivalent, in oklahoma. i m not going to bring you this. i think you could get elected in iowa if you said i m getting rid of all the pork and i don t care about ethanol
