But plaguing her nails to talk right now -- more than enough to say about his news conference.
And anyway -- clean out his yes I know you didn't dispute disagreed as I did two Jack well us from the little support here -- let's go to conference first.
So -- -- and I guess there's -- there's a sense that people are thinking he's going to compromise our president on this fiscal cliff do you.
You haven't -- feeling.
Well I've been watching and waiting for that because I assume there would be some middle ground there and to him hit the middle ground is I don't expect people to accept my I don't expect the Republicans to accept my budget look.
Democrats.
Did not accept your budget much less the GOP.
So that's literally compromise at this point somebody needs to teach the president how to offer an olive branch.
That has not happened I know he starts every comment saying I want compromised I wanna sit down with the GOP I wanna sit down with house Republicans.
But when you listen to the whole statement you can't help but take away.
I have my position I won the election it's my way or the highway.
Which isn't it.
Comes to the point I think that bothered me the most this mandate to help the middle class would about the rest of the country that sits on both sides of the middle class well.
And don't forget 250000.
In this area and other parts other country other large metro areas.
If your family living on 250000 that isn't median income that -- the middle of this the income stream no doubt about it you know.
I think people out there from the tone of the president's comments you get the sense that he thinks the recovery is already here.
Or operating right now but let's not forget in your last guest did not make this point 2.3 million Americans.
Unemployed or under employed in -- problems are not fix not by a long shot.
We still have.
I believe it's one and five Americans on food stamp that's right now.
We're still suffering mightily to the whole idea that we can start January 1 with a whole stream of income taxes -- whole stream.
New taxes on investment -- come.
You put it very well lot of Smart people who can afford an expensive accountants are gonna make sure they don't pay that so where we would be at the end of the day.
Lou Dobbs on earlier said they should kick the can they should pump this -- the new congress kindness and and you know what I don't think people should be worried if they do because taxes -- retro active they will solve this before it becomes an issue.
What do you think on kick in the camp.
You know I that is going to be completely against that -- listening to this I think it's really the only option we put something in place by the end of the year.
That is temporary in nature and then we go back and we to tax reform right that's what everybody wants the left the right people in the middle they -- -- simplified tax code they wanna tax -- that everybody can understand and you know what the rules of the game.
They should hire me I'll go round next -- tell yet if any it's down there Gerri Willis did fix -- I'm net job I know exactly how to do -- yeah.
