i've been fortunate to win on golf's biggest stages. but when joint pain and stiffness from psoriatic arthritis hit, even the smallest things became difficult. i finally understood what serious joint pain is like. i talked to my rheumatologist and he prescribed enbrel. enbrel can help relieve pain, stiffness, and stop joint damage. because enbrel, etanercept, suppresses your immune system, it may lower your ability to fight infections. serious, sometimes fatal events including infections, tuberculosis, lymphoma, other cancers, and nervous system and blood disorders have occurred. before starting enbrel, your doctor should test you for tuberculosis and discuss whether you've been to a region where certain fungal infections are common. don't start enbrel if you have an infection like the flu. tell your doctor if you're prone to infections, have cuts or sores, have had hepatitis b, have been treated for heart failure, or if, whilen enbrel, you experice persistent fever, bruising, bleeding, or paleness.

everyone is afraid of being hauled and asked questions under oath. >> steve: how many times were you told by national security in the administration. >>ince since i cover it a lot. people leak for all kinds of different reasons and you never know why they are leaking. some leaks tell people how their government works. others damage our national security and those are the kind of leaks that are investigated. >> steve: the thidge about the leaks, judy. they make the president look good and tough clearly too many looks like it is a concerted effort to get the guy four more years. >> that's the problem. when national security information is policized and people think that leaking is being done to make the president look better, that

gets us in to territory that is very damaging. and then people wonder whether or not they are getting the real story and to do that and leak information to make a political candidate whether he is a president running for reelection or's senator look good. that is reprehensible. >> steve: it is not just one person saying judy, i have a scoop for you. whose book was it they made top officials to spill the beans. >> david sanger excellent's book and full of interesting information and secrets. that's part of the problem. and having been the target of a leak investigation and how much time it takes and what it does to your ability to function it is damaging, we are so tied up with lawyers

and time preparing things for a special council, that you can't do your job. >> steve: in your case you would not reveal source of information that you came to acquire . you would think the f.b.i. in looking at the white house. tom and have a talk. >> it is a wide ranging investigation . many, many people are being interviewed and that's what the paper was complaining about which is a chilling of sources. that's going to happen if you insist on publishing information that damages or potentially damages national security. >> steve: judy miller always a pleasure. no better authority on this topic. >> unfortunately. >> steve: have a great week. meanwhile a athyeasts want the

folks are saying that without a word, the gunman just walked in, started opening fire. now, the folks that witnessed it described a bald white mail, believed to be in his late 30s. six people ended up dead. four sikh worshipers inside the temple. two outside. obviously the scene was one of panic and chaos. >> some people walked in and started shooting and there were little kids who started screaming with the gun fire going on of the the lady and the kids, they hid in the closet. >> we are told there were a number of people that hid inside the pantry where a meal was being prepared. all of the folks that survived witnessed it, were pain-stakingly taken through a briefing that was held across the street at a bowling alley, understanding this is a domestic terrorism incident and the f.b.i. has taken the lead in this particular investigation.

of the six victims, we have the name of one. it is the president of that temple is described as someone who was attempting to tackle the gunman in forgetting the folks that were inside the temple at the time of the shooting. so he's among the six that died in that shooting. again, wade michael paige, age 40, believed to have white supremacist tattoos, army veteran, spent time at fort bragg, he is the shooter, according to source. back to you in new york. >> steve: steve brown, thank you very much. it's interesting the f.b.i. would be treating it as domestic terrorism and not as a hate crime. why is that? we don't know for sure, but we can break down the two for you. for instance, what is a hate crime? a hate crime is a criminal offense against a person or property motivated in whole or in part by an offender's bias against race, religion -- that's why a lot of people thought it would be a hate crime,

disability, ethnic orientation or sexual orientation. >> brian: and domestic terrorism would be defined? >> anna: unlawful use or threatened use by an individual operating in the u.s. or puerto rico, committed against persons or property to intimidate or customers a government, the civilian population or any segment thereof in furtherance of political or social objectives. some of their advocate groups of the sikh religion say since 9-11, they've been victims of more persecution because they are often confused with muslim. some people even think associated with al-qaeda. they don't trim their beards, they don't cut their hair. >> steve: completely different religion. >> brian: there is about 700 in total. meanwhile, headlines. then we'll talk more. >> anna: 7:06. an extreme weather alert. thunderstorms rock the

pennsylvania 400 nascar race. lightning struck and killed a 41-year-old fan and thousandss of people headed for cover in the pouring rain. the man was already in the parking lot when the bolt of lightning hit his car. >> i didn't see nothing but a bang and a flash and people laying on the ground. there was ambulances coming. troy ran over there. that girl ran over there. it was a mess. >> anna: nine other people were injured. two of them in critical condition. now heading to ohio, take a look at this funnel cloud spotted in gerard. some people saying they had no idea what it was at first. >> looked like a fire at first, smoke coming up. then i was looking, the cloud starting to form and the tornado went straight across the street. >> it was pretty scary. it was like a loud boom, then i seen the wind going by. >> have you ever seen anything like that before? >> never. >> anna: it knocked down tree, power, and left thousands in the dark. no word when power will be back

up. no one seriously hurt. there is a tropical storm warning in effect right now for the coast of honduras after jamaica got a pounding from ernesto. cop high school to rescue fishermen. no reports of serious damage or injury. fox news alert. curiousity rover making history as it lands on mars. >> 7.5-meters. >> anna: successfully landed this morning. it went through what nasa calls seven minutes of terror. the nerve racking process of defending on -- landing caught on camera by another satellite. within minutes, curiousity beams back the first pictures from inside the crater. here you can see the rover's leg and its shadow. it has been traveling through space for eight months now. it will explore mars, looking for potential signs of life for the next two years.

presidential candidate center stage. established stars and up and coming stars on the stage and a new detainee where we're used to seeing the president. look at the names that have been reloosed that will have key speaking parts. >> steve: nikki haley, martinez, condoleeza rice are all female speakers. none of these seven names will be the keynoters, apparently. it has been rumored that chris christie is president-elect obama going to get it. these are -- >> anna: governor nicky haley, she's expected also to be appealing to some of the younger voters. she is the youngest sitting governor in the u.s. right now. her husband also supposed to be deployed to afghanistan next year. so she'll spleen a strong military message. >> brian: if you're evan listening on radio, john mccain

and john kasich is on the list. chris christie rumor to do have the keynote speech. he won't confirm or deny that because that would indicate whether he'd be the vp pick or not, which is conspicuous by its absences. marco rubio, senator portman, governor tim pawlenty and conkman ryan, all not on the list, but all you would think would weather have a role in the final, maybe short list. >> steve: sure, coming up this hour, reince previn will be coming up and talk about the speaker's announcement and ask him about his comments yesterday referring to harry reid as a dirty liar. >> anna: dirty harry, they're calling him. >> anna: maybe reince previn will make the announcement for mitt romney and say who the vp will be. you never know. i think he knows. don't you think?

>> steve: no. i think mitt romney will pick ann romney or beth myers. i don't know. >> anna: 11 minutes after the hour. in this economy, the president and the rest of washington will say they feel your pain. it turns out that's not the case. washington, d.c. has one of the lowest unemployment rates of alt big cities. what's the secret? stuart varney knows and he's on deck. there he is. >> brian: rielle hunter is setting her sights on a new man. she's hoping the donald can bail her out. we're going to ask him when he joins us live. i sense "celebrity apprentice" [ female announcer ] caltrate's done even more to move us.

>> brian: glad you're up. national unemployment rate has risen to 8.3%. in washington, d.c., it's 5.7%. why is the nation's capitol doing so well? >> anna: stuart varney is here with a whole lot more on that. so washington, d.c. doing pretty well. >> if you have a president and administration which is all government, all the time, you can expect the federal government workers will do rather well, as well as the city in which they live. that's exactly what's happening. you just outlined washington, d.c the unemployment rate is 5.7%. right? 8.3% for the rest of the nation. the number of new federal workers who have been hired during the obama administration? 38,000. compared to a lot of jobs in the private sector and a loss of jobs from state workers. how about home prices? up 10% in the washington, d.c. area for 2009. everybody else suffered what?

20, 30% loss. how about the three wealthiest counties in america? all of them are suburbs of washington, d.c because of all these federal government workers who are very well paid. if you have an administration which really sets its sights on expanding government, you can expect the center of government to do very well and it is. >> steve: i go down to washington with some regularity and over the last couple of years, it has just been breath taking the amount of new construction going on. here in new york city, aside from down at the world trade center area, there is not really much construction going on here. but there, the town is on fire. >> you have to go to north dakota to find a similarly well to do area because of the oil boom. >> brian: do you think that's what every administration -- with every administration? >> no. which other administration in recent years has so expanded federal government employment as washington, d.c. has? which -- by the way, all that

stimulus money, dc, got more stimulus money than any other city in america per head of population. >> anna: we've got some figures to show there. we can show you those. district of columbia, 8,000, $357. alaska. you also say that one of the reasons washington is thriving is the more you learn, the more you earn. public education in virginia and maryland is possibly helping as well, right? >> that has been raised as a possibility as to why there is great prosperity in the dc area. the average around the dc average is for much higher standards of education. far more college degrees. i'm sure that's a fact. but what came first? the government pouring in the money with the college graduates to follow? don't tell me that the college graduates suddenly settled in dc and then came the money. >> brian: what does come first with stuart varney is an

>> steve: not one, but two security scares at newark liberty airport causing major delays for hundreds of flights. first a woman reportedly passed through security checkpoint after setting off an explosive detection machine. that's never good. several flights had to be delayed or canceled because of that. and dozens of passengers were eventually rescreened. it was later determined that the woman was on a flight that landed in cleveland and was no longer considered a threat. a second incident at the same airport triggered by a checked bag set off an alarm for explosives. after another screening, it was given the all clear. but plenty of delays. >> brian: serena and venus williams taking home the gold for women in tennis. serena's first gold medal since her sister did it in 2000. serena and venus also won the doubles title in 2008 together. venus was eliminated early on in the singles. sandy richards roth getting

literally, we have five people for every involvement it's amazing how many celebrities there are. not everybody is a great celebrity like carol. but it's amazing how many there are. >> steve: with the kind of background that rielle hunter has, is that the kind of person you would want on your show? >> you know, the biggest problem i have, she tells somebody i really like donald trump. i think he's amazing. now, it's hard for me after hearing that to say she's terrible. i don't know anything about it. i've never been a fan of him. that, i can tell you. i always thought he was a total phony. >> anna: drama makes for good tv. >> and drama makes for good tv. it might be good in that sense. i don't want to say bad about anybody, although with respect to him, i can't -- he put himself throughout and he's a disgrace. >> brian: donald, the rnc let go some of the names that will be speaking. do you think that you're going to have a role in some way, shape or form? >> i know they want me to. i'll see what happens. i'm getting something in florida the night before.

you have to understand this was i'm sure in -- they're giving me the statesman of the year award on the evening before the convention and i'm very honored by that. that's the sarasota republican party. >> brian: wow, congratulations. >> it's great. florida. >> steve: very nice. i'm sure you heard about this, last week harry reid said a secret source called him on the phone and said that mitt romney didn't pay taxes for ten years and that mitt romney's father would be ashamed if he were alive. so many people think he's made that stuff up and here is senator lindsey graham of south carolina yesterday calling harry dirty harry, a liar. >> i've been around this town for a while. i actually like harry, but what he did on the floor of the senate is so out of bounds. i think he's lying about his statement knowing something about romney. this is what's wrong -- >> that's pretty stiff.

>> i think a leader of the -- i really do. i think he's created an issue here, i think he's making things up and a time when the country is just about to fall apart. >> steve: that's where we are. making stuff up. >> brian: what do you think? >> first of all, i think he paid taxes and i think that he shouldn't probably at this point give his returns because they'll look at one return for five years ago, see a little statement and they'll make a big deal out of it. i have said it examine i've said it a lot, that if obama opened up his records, maybe mitt should give his returns. that would be a great trade. i guarantee you it would be a really wonderful trade. >> brian: what do you mean records? >> i'd like to see his college records. i'd like to see his college applications. i'd like to see asking about his past, which many people know nothing about. i'd like to see his passport records, which are sealed. obama spent over $4 million in legal fees to keep these things quiet and then he stands up and says, i want to see his tax returns. he's given tax return examines if they give more -- and i understand him saying -- they're

very, very complex and 100% straight, 100% legal, but they look at little nitpicking things and then you have another month of debate. now, if obama gives some of his sealed records, where all of this money has been spent to keep them sealed, i would certainly make that trade. i think that's a great trade. >> steve: what do you think, donald, would be in his school records that people would find of interest? >> i don't want to get into that, but i think it would be very, very interesting to see. and i really think, and i've said that to the people and i really believe that that would be a trade that you'd like to see. i would tell you "fox & friends" would love to see it. i think you would find things very, very interesting and very shocking. >> anna: you just feel that something is hidden in there and that's why he's spending so much money to hide is it? >> you're spending millions of dollars to hide it examine most of the presidents have released their college applications and their college records. and a lot of questions are being raised by a lot of different

people. why does he not want to give out his college application? >> anna: senate majority leader will decide he'll release some of his tax returns as well. but really it's not just harry reid, the democratic congress national campaign committee now with a big apology. we're going to roll this one out for you. >> brian: they finally admitted by saying that he knew with prostitution in one of his schettino was wrong. the dcc made an unsubstantiated allegation. they went on to apologize. and a supporter of the opposing party, that was wrong. he goes on to apologize to addleson, if you're him, is that enough? he's a friend of yours. >> he is a friend of mine. i think it's probably enough. i mean, it's politics and it's a loft things are said l it's harry reid or anybody else. a lot of things are said. examine i think it's great they're apologizing. i think it's great for sheldon. >> steve: he had threatened a lawsuit. >> brian: real quick what, do you think mitt romneys that do in the last month leading up to the convention that he hasn't been doing yet?

>> i think he has to be very tough. he's a very nice man. he's a very smart and honorable man and now he's really got to get tough because they are playing down and dirty with him. what they're doing with him and the republicans, i think are really -- you know, the hillary clinton campaign, it was the most vicious ever run against hierurgy obama. this one is making that look like baby cakes. so i will tell you, i really think that the republicans and in particular mitt, are going to have to really get down and dirty, that he will have to get very tough because the things that are being used against them are disgraceful. >> steve: it is now a sprint to the convention. donald trump, we thank you very much. >> thank you. i'll be watching carol. i tell you what, i'm going to be watching you on that second hour. that's great. >> jane us. >> steve: we'll see you in 18 minute. >> yes, you will. >> anna: 7:42 is the time this monday morning. the results are in. the republican party releasing the names of its convention headliners. and the names giving us a few

ritz carlton here down the street. >> brian: his comments risky? not ohm for him, but for all republicans? let's ask him. joining us right now is the chairman of the republican national committee, reince previn. do you want to back off calling dirty harry, dirty harry? >> you know, there is no triple down in black jack, but i'll triple down on my comments from yesterday. speaking of las vegas. it's the truth. what else do you call somebody who goes on to the senate floor and claims that someone hasn't paid any taxes in ten years a complete lie? uses his official office to do it. we all get it. he's just playing this game and -- it's amazing to me that there can be any honor in a position that he holds that he's

degraded so far down the tubes. it is what it is. he's a dirty liar and we're moving on. we're moving on to defeating this president and saving this country. >> steve: over the weekend i was at an event and there was a member of congress who is a democrat and i asked him about this. and he said you can't say something like that in public unless you have the proof. do you feel he has just made this up because we've seen the white house, they had a chance through axelrod to disavow it examine he double downed on it? >> it's sort of one of those things if you tell a buddy, hey, why don't you tell me that doocy stole his car. well, okay. guess what? someone told me, steve, that you stole a car. well, it's foolishness. it's totally inappropriate. and it's unbecoming of a majority leader. but again, it's dirty politics.

i was just listening to donald trump, i think he's right. we have to be prepared to play tough. we're not going to sit around and allow these folks to manufacture stories and information, steal an election off of nothing when we've got 8% unemployment, debts coming out of our ears and an avalanche hitting our children and we have a country to save. that's what we're going to focus in on. >> brian: let's talk about the convention, to make work, you need it. the speaker's list has been release released. your sense of -- governor, i should say, any names you'd like to add to that list? >> there is going to be a lot more coming. this is just the first wave of names and very proud and honored to have these folks that will be speaking at the convention. i think it's going to be the best convention we've ever had,

is in the military. he was only in our area a very short period of time and he hasn't been here that long. >> brian: he's not active duty? >> i'm sorry, i didn't hear it. >> carol: he's not active duty, is he? >> no. , no. he was discharged. i don't have the dates on that. that's information that's being gathered. when i'm sure we have that at our command post right now with all the investigators gathering that last night, following up on tips that were coming in at that time. >> carol: you have his girlfriend in custody, yes? >> no. we have nobody else in custody. i have heard reports that there have been others in custody. from what i understand, there is nobody else in custody. >> steve: we heard a report that perhaps people were over at her place. has she been questioned by authorities? >> that, i'm not aware of. that may have been done late last night or early this morning of the i haven't been briefed by those investigators. we did go to several residences just to try and determine who this individual was, what his motive may have been and we may

rare. we are a pretty quiet community located south of milwaukee's airport on lake michigan. 35,000 people. very rare to have anything, even approaching this. rare to have a homicide. obviously it's a shock for our community. something that we're still trying to cope with. >> steve: chief, one of the things that's got to hit home for u.s., i know that police officers responded quickly to the 911 calls. this guy ambushed one of your cops, right? >> that's what it appears, from the evidence that is at the soon of the they stopped to do what is an active short. we had calls of 911 coming from the sikh temple. our first officer on scene did come across someone who was injured and he was trying to assist that person when the shooter did ambush him at a very close range. he was shot between eight and nine times. he had just came out of surgery last night. his second surgery. the latest update i have is he's resting comfortably with his family in the intensive care

like people tonight know who you are on mash. so many people on the right side have said of the political spectrum this administration is one of the most antibusiness administrations in decades. what do you think? >> it's not just antibusiness. i think it's a combination of things. jeffrey immelt, ho is the president's advisor on economic jobs guy, by the way, i saw he had moved the x-ray division of ge after he was crying, gave a speech to the chamber of commerce, you got small business, you got to create job, two weeks later, he moved the x-ray division to china. was in the country for 116 years. he's a fraud of sorts. i think he's a fascist. i mean that in the best sense of the word, that he's an economic fascist. he thinks that the government has to be -- the president thinks so -- the government and

business need to be partners in things. i mean, mussolini couldn't have written that better. if you read any of that stuff where the government becomes part of the economy, or you've got a combination of big business, big labor and big government, all in cahoots with each other. >> steve: carol, you were telling us about your small business. >> carol: i have a small skin care business and it's impossible these days to get a loan. what is that all about? >> well, they pass an act when you got -- i saw sandy wild came out and he's become a believer, i guess, in 1999, they got rid of the act examine allowed banks to conglomerate so that a commercial bank, somebody who makes loan, takes deposits, could combine with an investment bank, as soon as you did that, put those together, allowed the banks -- you know, the four banks, we have four banks in this country that control over 55% of the banking assets in this country. if that's not a monopoly, i don't know what is.

>> carol: can what can we do to fix it? >> you get rid of the dodd-frank act, which is 2300 pages of garbage that nobody read. we have elected people who do not read and therefore, they go ahead and pass -- it's unbelievable. you get rid of that. go back to the act that worked from 1933 to 1999. why wouldn't it work today? it creates a lot of banks and they're in competition with each other. competition is the natural regulator. you don't need all the regulation if you have competition. >> steve: real quickly, if mitt romney is elected, and i know you prefer him over our president -- is that going to change things? >> i don't know. you know, it's -- you don't know. i'm not sure because -- i'm not sure that romney is not a captive of big business in the sense that -- small business creates 80% of the jobs in the united states. big business, if -- that they

bribe the congress, in fact, everybody -- >> carol: there is no competition. >> there is no competition. that is correct. and they've got everybody on the payroll. the lobbyists down there who are bribing the congress and all that, i just don't know. i mean, it would be nice to say that he would. >> steve: he has created a bunch of jobs and that's the number one thing people are concerned about. >> he's done that in the past, but i don't know. when you get to be president of the united states, you're a captive, you're not a, you know -- >> steve: just like you're a captive on the curvy couch right now. wage rogers, thank you very much for joining us live. carol, what's coming up? >> carol: coming up, the president is helping you spy on your neighbors. if you want to know how they'll vote in november, all you need is a smart phone. you got to hear this one. >> steve: there is an app for that. she's our guest co-host and clearly the expert on looking good. she is showing us how to grab this, not that, when you're hungry in a hurry. which should you eat?

right now. you'll see more throughout the afternoon and it's that time of year, the tropics heating up. tropical storm ernestoophor cast to make landfall across belize and yucatan peninsula as we head into wednesday morning. brian? >> brian: thank you very much. we'll keep in touch. let's update you on what's happening in sports. family affair, summer olympics. serena and venus williams took home the gold. they beat the czech republic. they evidently had two women to play against them. congratulations to both them as they get another gold for their trophy case. and gymnastics. mckayla maroney settled for silver after falling on this vault. she had to land it. her feet sliding out from underneath her. she comes in second. still very good. and who is the fastest man in the world? can you say usain bolt? watch. >> usain bolt trying to come

along. bolt! he's still the king of 100. >> brian: wow. can you imagine getting off to a slow start and having the world record? tyson gauge finished fourth. that's a quick look at what's happening in the world of olympic sports. >> steve: let's talk a little bit about gabby douglas, the first african-american to grab the top gymnastics medal. you've already seen she's on the cover of the corn flakes box. they say she could earn, because she has dazzled the planet, earn $100 million, examine it could not come at a better time. >> carol: yes, her mother was in debt. she's got three other children at home of the i think it's very important that these athletes are able to pursue their dreams. >> brian: yeah. she is able to do that and her mom has declared bankruptcy once in december. they declared bankruptcy again. she owes $20,000, i believe, to her trainers and her gym, all to get to this moment.

now, i was just saying this last hour, i just think of the pressure on the 14-year-old shoulders. is all the hard work and sacrifice it going to be worth it? if i don't do well, my mom loses her house and my family -- >> carol: her sisters and brothers, too. she's not siblings that are living in the same house and need their parents, too. yet all this resources were going towards gabby. so it's a lot of pressure and it's a lot of -- for these young girls. >> brian: i think she's going to last forever. if you hear her talk, examine listen to her interviews, she's got the mind of a 25-year-old. >> carol: and her smile is dazzling. i have not seen a smile like that on an olympic -- >> brian: you would be a great judge of that. >> carol: it's a beautiful smile. >> steve: when she's been performing like that, she seems like she's got not a care in the world. but obviously with what's going on at home, got to weigh heavily on her. somebody else, tmz is reporting that ryan lochte's family is divorce -- his divorced parents are facing foreclosure on their home in florida. >> brian: he's finalli' emerged

>> carol: quick check of your headlines. president obama's reelection campaign now helps you spy on your neighbors. the obama for america smart phone app locates nearby registered democrats and gives you their name, address, and age. parents, you might want to swap batman out for a big bird a. new study says preschool kids who watch violent cartoons have a hard time falling asleep compared to kids who watch educational cartoons. >> brian: that's a quick look at what's happening in the news. now this. president obama wants to raise taxes, but even the late democratic president, john f kennedy said tax cuts are the best way to heal the economy. >> the tax cut i think is the most important. that would be $11 billion tax cut in a period of 18 months. we're not doing this just because everybody would like them reduced. the major reason is because of the lift it would give the economy. the assurance against another

recession. >> carol: what has changed in the democratic party since jfk was in the white house? joining us now is former economic advisor to president reagan, art laffer. good morning. >> thank you. pleasant being with you. thank you. you're doing a great job, by the way. >> carol: thank you. it's not as easy as it looks. >> brian: art, first off, you were a supporter of kennedys early on, but the philosophies diverged quickly. what do you think changed in the democratic party? >> i don't know. even in the '86 tax act, all the democrats voted to cut the highest rate from 50% to 28%. that included schumer, harry reid, it included bill bradley, al gore, chris dodd, and joe biden. they all voted to cut tax rates. the change has been very recent and i think it's basically obama related. i don't know why this class warfare stuff has come back, but it's really disruptive. >> brian: when you talk about the message amongst both parties, about the middle class

and the refrain from president obama is mitt romney wants to become president to give himself a tax cut and do it at the expense of the middle class. what's the truth? >> jack kennedy, which you showed right there, was a very wealthy family. he didn't cut the highest rate to help his family. he did it to help the country. kennedy cut the tax rates across the board to stimulate. he cut government spending, reaffirmed the government's convert ability to gold and did free trade, which is called the kennedy round tariff negotiation. every one of those is opposed to what obama is doing. obama is going the opposite direction. and i just don't understand why the democrats lost their play card. why they don't really support what they used to be the champions of. >> carol: why don't you tell us why it's so important to have these tax cuts what, that would do to the economy. >> basically what you really need to do is incentivize producers to hire people. you need to create an environment of growth, prosperity and you can not love

jobs and hate job creators. that's what's going on here is the president is really talking down business, talking all these regulations. those are the people who create jobs, those people who make over $250,000 a year are the very people who employ the middle and lower class people and create those jobs. it's ridiculous to think those people will continue to provide jobs, output and employment if you raise their taxes, and you are raising their taxes. it's not giving them a tax cut. for ten years, those tax rates have been this way. now they're going to pop them up on one small segment, the job creators. it's silly. >> brian: and unfortunately, we're in the silly season when things couldn't be more serious. art laffer, economist, thank you for joining us. >> thanks, brian and carol. >> brian: coming up straight ahead. >> carol: he was the first man to across niagara fall he's high wire. now he's showing us how to do it. brian, you have your sneakers this morning. >> brian: like one foot. nick wallenda from the famous
