0 and on this day in 1836. mexican troops launched an assault on the alamo. marking a pivotal point for texas fight for independence. months earlier dozens of texas settlers and some volunteers had fought off troops stationed at the alamo. late in february a force of at least 1800 mexican troops returned and staged a deadly siege on the compound. a heavily outnumbered american force held out for 13 days. mexican forces eventually scaled the alamo's outer walls and broke down the door. nearly all of the americans inside died including the frontier legend davy crockett. the core rage just stand mark as symbol of prick sacrifice. -- patriotic sacrifice. won the war 177 years ago today. and now you know the news for this wednesday, march the 6th, 2013. shoot you from the sky dead? here? he says no. hold it. get to tee off at you. give me one damn program he said he had cut. one. big shootout with alan colmes tonight. i say president obama has not put forth any specific budget cuts at all. yet liberal america continues to defend that. we have a follow-up report tonight so buckle up. >> we have very strong laws, stronger than jessica's law. >> you actually don't have strong laws. you are lucky o'reilly wasn't here today, sir. >> bill: what is going on in the state of colorado? it doesn't want to passjessicat kids but it does want to legalize marijuana and impose new restrictions on gun ownership. we'll have a follow-up on that. also tonight, dennis miller on dennis rodman, alan colmes, and the obama administration telling the kids they can't come to the white house. >> what are you, nuts? get out of here. states is not looking out for the country right thought. is he hell-bent on destroying the republican party and he he does not seem to care if the nation collapses as a result. all you need to know is this. when mr. obama took office in 2009, the federal debt was $10.5 trillion. by the end of this year, the debt will be 17 trillion. by the end of the president's term, it could be 20 trillion. the feds print money at a record rate. that means the dollars we already have have r. being devalued. as the markets flooded with currency. artificially. trialing to prop up the american economy. this economic madness. and that's the reason i raised my voice last night to get everybody's attention i think i succeeded. liberal america is defending the insanity because they don't want to criticize their standard bearer barack obama. here is more damning evidence. back in 2010 the president's own debt commission simpson bowles urged him to begin significant cuts in federal spending. mr. obama ignored his own commission. last month allen simpson and erskine bowles came back again warning the nation that bankruptcy is looming and proposing new scenarios that would cut the deficit by more than 2 trillion over 10 years. seems reasonable. again, silence from president obama corrections, not silence. more calls for tax hikes. the u.s.a. already has the highest corporate tax in the world. do you think that helps our economy? do you? and this year the feds are projected to get the highest amount of income kirsten powers fox news analyst. i understand you visited alan colmes in the hospital today. is he all right? >> i sent him flowers. >> bill: just a joke. okay. where am i going wrong, powers? i'm sure i'm going wrong somewhere. >> i'm just shocked that you are doubling down on these claims that obama not proposed any spending cuts. you can go to the web site whitehouse.gov and has his fiscal cliff offer that has -- >> bill: wait, since i assume you have gone there since you are touting it. >> i have a copy of it right here. >> bill: tell me what the specific spending cuts the president has proposed. >> as people will know and also you can look at his fiscal year 2013 budget has the exact same thing. you told alan last night that he hasn't made any specific suggestions on medicare completely untrue, $400 billion in cuts to federal healthcare spending laid out very clearly. >> bill: 400 billion you are saying in medicare, right, the president wants. is that what you are saying? >> yes, that's in his budget and on his web site. >> bill: wait, powers. i'm ooa simple man you can't go too fast with me. >> i won't argue with that. >> 400 million. >> billion. >> bill: how would that manifest itself? what's going to be cut? >> well, there is different things. they want to applied the medicaid -- with medicaid you can negotiate drug prices, they want to apply that to medicare and get savings in drug prices. they want to raise. >> bill: wait, simple man, simple man. all right? they want to negotiate drug prices with whom? >> with the drug companies. >> bill: with the drug companies. they want to? wait, wait, wait. have they begun doing that? and, if so, which drug companies are they talking with? >> see, this is what you do. you change the discussion. what you said last night was the. >> bill: specific. >> i'm giving you specifics. what you said last night is the president did not propose anything. the president proposed this to the republicans. the republicans circulated this plan. they know about the plan. there was also chained cpi in there i know you are not too simple to know about own party that the age of people getting entitlements like medicare and social security might be raised. and the affluent level. >> really? that's fascinating. >> bill: those are specifics. >> that's in obama's plan. >> bill: what age exactly. >> let me give you the exact line where it says encourage beneficiaries to seek high value healthcare and ask the most fortunate to pay more. it's called means testing. that's how you start a negotiation. >> bill: this is where you and i will never agree. the word to me specific and you can look it up in the dictionary or on the president's web site. specific means you come in and i you say we would like to raise the age from medicare recipients to 61. and if you are earning more than 250,000 a year, you are not going to get as much as anybody else. we're going to cut you down to this percentage. that's specifics. those are specifics. >> bill,. >> bill: save this amount of money by doing that. >> you are totally moving the goal post. what you screamed at alan back. nothing. >> this is ridiculous. >> bill: nothing, zero. all right, powers, look, you were good, you put forth a lively point of view. i put fourth mine in a lively way and we'll let the folks decide and i will stand on what i said. next on the rundown, republican congressman introduces legislation to stop taxpayer money from funding the president's golf outings. that's specific. and, later, dennis miller on colmes fiscal madness and dennis rodman in north korea. we are coming right back.
