And I got solid -- for the judge judge the judge returns -- Monday.
But tonight on the docket there are several debt deals in the works so hurry leader Mitch McConnell is -- be.
The gang of six his recent proposal.
And the president and speaker banners supposed to -- three trillion dollar plan with a promise of tax reform at a later date.
But is it even in America's interest to pass a deal more on that later in the show.
First we turn to the man who cosponsored -- Tea Party backed cut cap and balanced bill.
Which is senate decided to not even bother to take up today that happened earlier today but essentially.
That kills the bill.
If there's no future for cut -- -- balance what's next congressman Tim -- can't joins us now welcome to freedom watch mr.
congressman and what is plan B now that those senators said multi year deal.
Where what is happening in the -- as a senator Reid refuses to allow a vote this was a procedural motion -- -- I think it's time for Harry Reid and the -- the Democrats to.
Man up and and present a play and the same thing with the president they have no written.
Detailed plan -- only one plan on the table that.
Cuts the budget day and proposes a -- meant amendments also a problem that's cut -- and balance and a what's frustrating for -- freshman of these folks that run around have press conferences but will not man up for a vote.
That two thirds of American people want and that includes a balanced budget amendment.
All right so everybody's playing the blame game but in this set in -- since they don't have.
-- plan than expected the president doesn't have a plan that's written out about I want this I want that.
Aren't you basically forced into the -- of negotiating with yourself.
Well that's where some folks would like is especially the president but again.
Harry Reid in the present they have no plan were drifting towards August 2.
That's this artificial deadline the Treasury Secretary and President Obama created.
I think it's very artificial thing has something to do with the birthday party the next day but the real deadline are we going to balance the budget we gonna do -- now the credit rating agencies don't say you just have to raise the debt -- you have to have progress to solving our long term overspending problem.
And we're gonna continue to focus on -- capital balance the pressures increasing which is why here read rushed to table this because he's afraid that American people speak and they get hurt.
We'll get this thing passed.
What congress listen you know I like to break these things down to -- really simple it if there is a lot of us of the bottom hold in the past and what you do we should make an offer.
And then you wait for the counteroffer in this particular case you didn't get a counteroffer.
So now.
You have to come back with something different what's different what's what's another planned -- -- you can come back with.
Well I don't think it's necessary come back with any thing I think the president's bluffing.
I think -- readers flopping they're certainly not doing their job it's time to man up.
And I think this house is the only place in town.
That's on the job it's amazing and -- partisan about it but there's not a single Democrat Washington DC that's outlined a written deep they'll play and that'll solve this problem they haven't had a vote on any thing.
And they're not intending to have a vote I think the American people are demanding.
-- read man up and had come up and have an up or down debate and vote on the plant there are dozens of US senators ready right now to debate the plan.
Debate the history of this country in the future as we're going ahead on spending and overspending but Harry Reid refuses and -- sits back.
And tells the American people we're not going to -- that debate.
So are you saying at this point.
You're gonna it's you're just gonna stay where you war.
You've passed the cut -- and balance the you're just gonna wait it out until somebody on the other side gives you some land back.
Well I I think over the weekend -- generates that they're gonna work hard over the weekend they -- went in He would not allow a debate again this is the choice of the senate.
-- And the -- and they are afraid cat capital balances gaining momentum and they are right.
Give the American people we can turn open the phone line that's why the centers are going help.
If they don't want to have to feel the heat a phone calls and -- Washington DC I'm -- Americans get their way out.
Very competent cut -- and balance will be the law of the land.
What are you hear about them going home are are we gonna have of what we to have any meetings with -- my in there are we gonna have some of the town halls that we had maybe a couple of Summers ago.
-- about that would be -- I saw I don't know what happy -- schedule that's one thing you know senator Reid says oh we're gonna work all weekend.
And they cancel all the meetings and He changes the schedule I think -- they might be afraid of the American people in and I would be afraid if I had no plan.
And if you're the president than Harry Reid that's there's.
Financial Armageddon will hit unless we do -- and August 2 and you're sitting here.
As a president of -- Largest greatest country in the world -- you have no plan to deal with a huge.
Predictable financial disaster I'd be afraid to have a town hall president will have -- I'd be afraid if I was here read but we'll see if they have the courage to go out and talked to the people who work for.
Well we wish you well thank you for having that.
The spine to sit there and say listen regalia plan give me one back and congressman that temple -- -- thank you very much for goodness.
Thank you you bet the --
