special sunday edition of fox & friends. let s talk a little about this. the national institutes of health, nih does a lot of really good work and let s face it, like a lot of other government agencies they ve spent a lot of money in crazy ways and spent like a half a billion dollars on bizarre projects like this. and they ve done a study, whether or not a mother rat would abandon her baby rat if given cocaine and also, they ve been trying to talk people into mailing them their toenails. and as period as that s that s disgusting. steve: what our government is doing. gretchen: toenail clippings. steve: as disgusting as that is, listen to this, so much money to going to our largest debtor, china and we re cutting the check. gretchen: still, you got me at toenails. i m more upset about mailing in toenail clippings than china.
my problem with the president he starts negotiating to himself and moves to where he thinks the republicans are and starts to negotiate with them. and my preference for the president, this is a deal breaking, taxes on the wealthy, closing loopholes on corporations, instead he s going too far. as a democrat i think he s negotiating too much and compromising too much. steve: well, there was a deal on the table, but harry reid agreed to and the republicans agreed to last week, last sunday, but the president said, oh, i can t do that because i need a long-term deal that s going to zoom me right past my reelection. that s what it comes down to. i don t know if you know where the president stands. the only thing that he we do know where he stands he wants to be reelected. he wants to be reelected and not have the situation arise before the election. if it comes up before the reelection, there s no way he gets reelected. he s the ceo of ow country and he should be pushing for the dea
the deal, would the tea party support this? well, as i said. i think we re going to have to wait and see what comes back because the bottom line is, steve. americans don t want to deal, they want a solution. you re exactly right. thank for joining us. it s a pleasure. thanks for having me. straight ahead. airport security is about to change and soon tsa agents will be able to single you out for questioning and profiling works, but what about great big countries like the united states. we examine next. and charlie, charlie, did you really need another controversy? the congressman who didn t pay taxes now tied to even more bad checks? oh spaghettio. turn left.

the president apparently highered won t be the only democrat steaming about this deal. is that true, eric. eric: a soldier plotting another massacre at fort hood. in fact, he had two of them. fox news with the first look inside his arsenal, steven. steve: charlie, did you really need another controversy? apparently the new york congressman who didn t pay his taxes, now, tied to more bad checks and pretty bad website, too, what s that about? we ll tell you all about it, hour two or the special under edition of fox & friends starts right now. good morning, everyone, no, you re not on the wrong kay, it is sunday. steve: we re on the wrong day. gretchen: steve and gretchen and eric bolling ostensibly for brian, but
