attempt on the part of the administration and media bootleggers as painting it on both left and right. progressives targeted like the tea party. and the inspector general said we did not find evidence that criteria labelled progressives were used by the irs to select potential cases in the 2010 and 2012 time frame. the inspector general himself saying it was not. it is just conservativethey were targeting. >> oh president obama, wouldn't he love for us to forget it and move on? but the obnorthbounds and unaccountable federal agency blunted th obama ground game and anti- president obama ground game and he has to remember there is a lot of emotion tied up in everylection and this is

9:06 am
but rich is right. the president is up in t clouds. at best, he is truly disconnected from the american people and at worst, grossly dishonest. if you look at polls, rasmussen and others 60 percent of the american people think it is real and source and starts and ends in washington. >> rick, i know you don't think the ident is there. hold on a second. the connection of william wilkins. he took the cases away from the cincinnati folks, don't you want to know why he did that and whether he was influenced. >> i ink it is fascinating there is no testimony and yet he tock it away. >> he hasn't appeared before congress. they will subpoena him and he may plea the fifth? >> where are you getting e information that wiins took it away. >> from the cincinnati case
9:07 am
worker. under testimony and oath. if they lie they will be prosouted. >> let's g to that testimony as it was reported and correct it by no more of a conservative magazine and natational review. and the way it is reported by the daily caller was not the teimony. >> emac, anybody, that is not thorough. >> no, no. talk show ho >> so did we. >> emacgo a head. >> rick, you are describing that wrong. what they are saying we don't know. i want to know what mr. wilke did. hang on a second and i want to know what dougshulman did. they were in the white white. so what if they had a meeting. janet reno called for a special prosecutor for whiteater and nixon allowed a special prosecor for watergate. and so why doesn't the president
9:08 am
allow a special prosecutor? >> bottom line, there is a lot of information we nee to get to d we need that to come out in the open testimony particular he like mr. wilk. >> we need a special prosecutor to g to the bottom of this. the justice department will not do it. congress will go tank because of the partisan in the hou. we need someby in a real team to get to the bottom of this. there is too much. 200 organizations get targeted. that doesn't happen from a few rogue agents. david, those 12 democratic senators wrote letters. who handled those and how did they respond? >> a lot more questions than answers. and coming up next. >> the law is implemented as it currently stands when we hire somebody new we'll let them know they are part- time and not eligible for the health insurance benefit. >> the president insisting his

it is proof it is bad for jobs. >> absolutely. the 50 employee threshold will play out more and more. you have a bubusiness growing a now you will hold it back because of increased costs from the government and in terms of the 30 hour work wek, they want to raise it to 40 hours to get people to have full- time jobs. it say job killer pure and simple. those who say you get tax credits andhings like. at tse are small businesses and small margins and it is crushing them. >> rick, a job's killer or not. >> no, there is a study. >> you came loaded for bear here. >> and by the cper. and 0.6. >> by whom by the way? >> center for proessive group. it is a 0.6 percent. >> you got to get your face out of m head >> your handut of my face.
9:14 am
wrero.6 percent of the work forces working less than 40 hours and that's what it was last year. and more interest. two-thirds of those in the group said they are working less hours because they want to. one- trd is working less hours because their employer is telling them t >> sabrina what have you founun >> i am skeptical that people are working fewe hours because they want to in the economy. people are realizing that our economic health is at stake and not just the physical health. it is a role problem. it is aminimum essential coverage requirement that obama care said that all employers have to provide a cadillac version of insurance. the rality not every bsiness can absorb. mcdonalds might be able to and white castle may not. they are lowering the number of
9:15 am
people they employ. >> morgan we are looking into this. >> i looked at the same study as rick. i dons inially believe its a job's killer and a lot of it depends on the business. and actually if you look at that. 28 million small businesses. less than four percent are in the 40 to 50 staff mark. they will be implemented by the obama care regulation and nine out of ten offer an insurance program. i am skeptical. i don't think it will kill jobs but potentially change the jobs that are offered. i don't see it killing jobs. >> it is not for the people who are already working there and not tting current employees, but new hires are me reluctant to hire people full- time cause of the health care law. >> the majority of the job growth came from small businesses. the reason why president obama is the first president to be
9:16 am
there in a recovery where incomes have fallen and labor participation rate has fallen, he is pushing the heah care man date on to people. he extended the man date because it doesn't work. it is raising costs and when costs go up, businesses hire less. >> john, you have unemployment that is high as ours is particularly minority youth who are facing a 40 percent unemployment rate right now and in is a targeted group and group that is hurt the most by the heth care law, right? >> it i notven debatable. it is a job killer. labor is a cost and businesses hire workers because they feel they can get the costs back. ine rick would agree it is going to raise the costs of hiring because of that job creaon will go down. this is basic conomics. >> stove, is it basic economics? >> it is basic congresses and
9:17 am
tax credits and things like that, david, where does the money come from? it is a huge amount of uncertainty and thate had a job recovery because small businesses are not doing it. big businesses have the cash and small businesses don't. >> let me ask rick why is it that white castle will be more reluctant to hire people full- time. >> they say it is because of the health care law. are they lying? daredin industries did the same thing. when customers told themow they felt about the behavior, they backed off and stopped doing it. >> white castle had no choice. >> by the way, sabrina, i have to bring a personal one. my daughter worked at abber krom bow and fich. everyone who works there is part- time because of the benefits issue. >> actually, i have to agree
9:18 am
with morgan. that there are groups that may benefit. younger workers that want part- time and women who could benefit. it is a disaster for job creation and think of the alternative picture culd have looked like if we drove insurance away from employer provided itould be a different picture. >> and done something about the lawsuits and all of the malpractices that the president didn't want to trust. >> detroit, moving forward and the city city on cashin' in showinthem how to save a lot of mney without costing taxpayers a dime. first on forbes. want to speed up your screening ♪
