-- back to follow the money the squabbling over extending the payroll tax cut continues but it looks like the White House is finally ditching the so called tax on millionaires and billionaires to me now.

Great -- Previous chairman of the Republican National Committee sir thank you so much for spending some time of us tonight -- The president good evening Eric did you -- -- viewed the -- is backed away from raising taxes and job creators to pay for the payroll tax cut extension why do you think.

This is happening.

While hum and it's happening because the president can't keep the leveraging all of his rhetoric to try to get you know these failed policies through the congress -- not gonna -- -- -- at the end of the day.

Small businesses.

In this country which is really what we're talking about.

Small businesses in this country shouldn't have to send more money.

To Washington in fact what we should be doing.

Is that is taking less than allowing these small businesses to grow and hire more people to get our country back on track -- this president knows that but you know what listen.

This president is prepared to throw the entire country under the bus if he needs to to make sure that Israel -- and we're not.

Talking.

Anymore about the future of our kids and grandkids which certainly is very important and that's everything -- to us but we're talking about the very idea of America now.

And that's what this president doesn't understand and that's what the American people -- Which is -- today.

All of us this have seen more polling data.

That shows that Americans are ready to show Barack Obama the door and save this country sure sure and in most -- -- you see and we follow these polls day in day out in it it's very consistent.

Mr.

Obama against the generic Republican the generic Republican has at least the last.

It may be eight to ten months has the generic Republicans always -- and -- India in the polling.

But when you break it down candidate by candidate -- not necessarily the case I mean it -- it fluctuates.

Up and down.

It's a tough question for you and Damascus.

Would notice -- busy currency like.

On the view well I mean we like -- we like that we like the field Vietnam and I am betting on the field.

At but in all of you look at some of the polling with what you also -- and Associated Press poll today that basically said -- should Barack Obama be fired.

Or should we continue giving him a chance and by 52% -- -- -- was 44% people -- should have been fired.

I don't.

If he was an employee of any business in America views certainly an employee of yours or mine or anyone that's watching here tonight he would have been fired a long time ago.

Mean he's not performing number one.

Things aren't going well generally number two but I on top of it.

Mean this president came in grand fashion -- it wasn't just some promises that and a straightforward way that work you know in a professional way this was in grand fashion.

Reducing the deficit cutting the debt.

Bringing jobs across this country and look what happen.

It meant every single thing -- -- -- war sir I had about half a minute or so minutes -- -- to Slobodan -- Neil Cavuto asked the the founder of Home Depot yesterday if you could have found -- Home Depot in in discounted but -- -- you know bomb economics environment today.

And -- and unequivocally no it wouldn't of happened now wouldn't have been able to do that.

Not a bad sound -- for the currency maybe even and upcoming -- now.

Well let's read and you know -- because there's no certainty in the market.

This president gives businesses and no degree of confidence whatsoever.

He's out campaigning.

He's out his cell running around on buses and we're dealing with the payroll tax here you know we've got the -- issue tonight.

And and where's the president then we where is Barack Obama think where's Waldo.

Whereas Barack Obama you know who else but he certainly not here.

Getting the job done as president of the United States of America rent she's not here either we welcome them on show -- -- -- never see that happening.

Not until at least until hell freezes over -- priorities that amendments rents previously you have to leave -- -- is -- -- -- joke thank you so much for joining us tonight.
