. >> i will simply say this -- to impose ultimatums at a time when the president has said let's work together, i think it would be a bad way to start. the president said if congress acts, i will stand down. i will not need to act. short of congress acting, and in six years, congress has not acted, he is prepared to try to do what he can, as he did two years ago. my sense is that all we have to do is see congress do its job and act. we won't have to worry about the president trying to act through his executive powers. to start with ultimatums -- if you don't do this our way, we will not do anything else -- that to me would be a bad sign. let me ask my other colleagues to respond. >> i would add to that, as i mentioned before, talking about threatening to shut down the government because they don't get their way or because the president is trying to improve the way in which the laws are carried out i think his childlike, quiet frankly. we need to stop creating more uncertainty. that is not going to help. it will create more uncertainty. that is what we need to into -- that is what we n

to start with ultimatums, if you do not do this our way, we will not let you do anything else. that to me would be a bad sign. let me ask any other colleagues to respond. >> i would only add to that. again, talking about threatening to shut down the government because they do not get their way or because the president is not trying to improve the way in which the laws are carried out, i think his childlike them a quite friendly. moreed to stop creating uncertainty. this is no secret, the president talked about executive order for quite some time. we know this has been coming down the path. also not the first time the president has used executive order to carry out major events in the history of the united .tates quite frankly to add to that, if and when i believe the president will carry through with issuing the executive order on immigration, it still will not address every issue that needs to be addressed. the congress still needs to come back here and fix what is a broken immigration system. that does not change. it is about time that republican congress and the house and se

he apparently told interrogators that he didn't think president bush would follow through on his ultimatumptured, i was told that the fbi agent that talk talked to he said i just didn't believe bush. and it's hard for me to believe he didn't believe me. >> uh-huh. >> we'd given an ultimatum to the taliban and delivered. i make the point in the book, of course -- and dad understood this better than anybody, that when you say something as president, you better mean it. words mean something. martha: president bush dud some things that were controversial during his presidency, but he always said he believed he would be judged by history and he felt he could look in the mirror and accept what he had done because he felt it was in the best interests of the american people. looks like a really interesting interview and book. eric: especiallyy to hear what saddam hussein said about president bush. absolutely. >>> well, president obama is now named, as you may know, u.s. attorney loretta lunch to replace eric holder. but what do we know about his choice to head the justice department? >> what the p

this is like the weeks before world war i when both sides set up ultimatums, and put up iron walls oft they would accept. is this what the election gave us, a battle map? two lines of political soldiers with rifles aimed across the field and no commander with the grit and wit to figure alternative. but what about the dust settles? people thinking he's legalizing millions who have come here illegally, but encouraged millions more to come. is that the solution? what will republicans have to show for doing nothing? a party who's bluff has been called. an hispanic community who feels only one party is ready to act for them. let's talk while there's still time tonight to talk. our top guest tonight, josh ernest, white house press secretary. am i wrong, or does it look like two sides are ready to go at it here? >> it doesn't have to be that way. there is a trump car that members of congress and the republican party are holding right now. right now there's a piece of legislation that has passed through the senate. they could pass it right away, could for the economy, reduce the deficit, stre
