his accomplishments, he didn t use democrats to pass any of it. it s absolutely ridiculous. all right. shutdown talk. let s now turn to ms. frustrated, liz winsted. i can t believe you re booking me on your show. i need whiskey. you look at these two goons. and stop comparing them to the crazies. it s like they re like raydon in your basement, you don t smell them but your house could blow up. instead of my house is on fire bachmann types. it s like sophie s choice. the government is shut down, the good news is these people aren t destroying it anymore. if you get walker or chris christie, it s the government is open and their horrible policies get put through. what do you do? right. joan? you scared me by saying you believe we re headed to default. you rattled me. i ve got to say, ed. i can t argue with you. but you know, i am very concerned. and why like this talk about a six-week, you know, extension as some kind of compromise.

a congressional run in 2016. saying it is something i have always been interested in. it was my dream to serve this country in the military. and now it is my dream to serve this country in politics. joining me now, the first iraq war veteran to serve in congress, former pennsylvania congressman patrick murphy. thank you, as always, congressman for joining us. i want to talk to you first about the news of date here. veterans seem to have become pawns in all of this, shutdown talk and debate. rnc chair offered to pay for security guards to keep the world war ii memorial open. members from both sides of the aisle have greeted the world war ii vets decrying the shutdown, but while all this is happening, va facilities are going to reman remain open but a shut down could slow down veterans claims. a lot is pomp and circumstance. when it comes to caring about the veterans, there is no there there.
who is going to have the best defense? we re watching all the shutdown talk just outside the white house. if these guys come out and say something, we ll obviously bring it to you. what s going to happen in this meeting? well, now as a staunch liberal, there better not be any deal-cutting going on that s going to bleed into social security, medicare or medicaid. let s start there. i m all about the debt ceiling, but if this conversation could roll, let s go big. i remember president obama back a few summers ago saying you want to go big, i ll go big. this is not the time. and i believe receipt n right nw what the president has to do is force boehner to do what he doesn t want to do. i remember boehner coming out saying, well, i ve got i ve got 99% of what i wanted. remember those conversations? no. this is not about who wins and
