A downgrade had talking and scrambling over the weekend to explain it all -- the new buzzword emerged to describe the debate.
There's another issue here which -- all this bickering growing.
Economy is slowing down.
What we need is a Washington.
That stops this -- That's get rid of these hard positions.
There are obviously things we can do it the question is whether we have the will to do it and whether we can lay the politics aside.
And work together.
Republicans and Democrats.
To do it.
-- this is really not about to -- either political party it's about the difficulties.
All sides in finding.
You know a consensus.
Around fiscal policy choices now and in the future.
Consensus debate has become bickering -- at least according to the talking points.
We'll pick that up now with three of my favorite courses in America Tom Marr.
WC -- -- our radio show host -- -- to have you with this radio talk to our host.
Fox News contributor cohost of the five Monica Crowley David Webb serious accident radio talk show host thanks all for being here Tom.
Since -- is a public debate bickering.
Well is it isn't even a debate from -- for -- what we have here is a lack of leadership.
Now President Obama.
-- again showing -- all the leadership of a caboose.
We had a terrible problem on Friday.
He should have stayed in the White House He ran off to Camp David and He hid until today and came out today and said absolutely nothing.
This is just unbelievable.
Now became obvious well they were returning -- -- Why is there something talking point around bickering and why isn't it appropriate to call us to debate because that's what we've been X.
And it's and of course it is a debate but one of the reasons why the left is calling it bickering is because the right it's Tea Party movement -- conservative movement is actually winning this debate and that's why the left is trying to lock it down to try to silence it.
Look when when He said this is not about the parties that actually is about the parties because the Republican Party led by John Boehner but pushed by the Tea Party movement.
Where the only ones who actually put out and pass to proactive plans -- that would have stopped this crisis from happening David 2012 Brian budget -- -- cup captain.
Balance David.
And the idea that some we're going to have consensus -- -- were orders as well bipartisanship consensus.
What's -- balanced approach look this is what you do when you have no policy.
When you're not put out a plan the president today said Paul you have your divided ways doesn't it yeah I'm gonna produce -- I get Q what He.
They're gonna get him a few weeks -- now exert wonder what the heck was He doing for the last.
A month or so that He was actually gauge how the how about the last actually seven months since we started the real debate over the right -- but it -- actually engaged in the debt ceiling debate until a month ago -- -- well you know with his Blackberry can multitask -- Washington -- multitask the bottom line on this is with a failure to lead.
And confidence which comes from leadership.
We now see what happens and we don't have a White House that is engaged in -- in whether it's the markets the people and outside the beltway Lou.
The American people have decided to change the tone and where force in the conversation I've I've got an -- turnover.
As one of the things that is disturbing me is we're talking about the seals and and our forces who were killed immature and our helicoptered.
There was shot down in Afghanistan.
Why are we suddenly seeing.
First all the families.
Of our US Navy SEALs and seal -- six in particular.
Why is it that this pentagon released information about seal -- six and to my knowledge -- is the first time they've ever done so.
Well this is terrible numbers that we're gonna see more of these because as we draw down too early to many they're gonna have to be more.
Of these special operators and special operations -- going on we should know very little about that I guarantee you.
That the television networks who protect this president like you will not believe.
Will not be up at Dover but when it comes to him look look here's the answer here is the answer.
In this terrible problem we have.
With losing our troops with the horrible economy.
Recession is when your neighbors out of a job a fresh look at some are not focused on but I want to get back what voters are wrong.
The military -- -- and I didn't do this and well then with this happy coincidence what's the answer.
Well the answer is that the draw down game too quick came to quickly and we'll get out of this morass we're in one Obama is out of his job -- are gonna go.
