neil: ben stein, what do you make of this? >> what i'm worried about is the fact this president seems to have very little regard for truth. the fact that he said he would have the plan without affecting the deficit is a lay. the fact that he said he was going to read the budget line by line to cut waste is a lie. neil: you sound like joe wilson. >> this man has very little regard for the truth but i'm worried about his disregard for the constitution. we had a problem with max baucus saying he was going to investigate humana because they dared to criticize the bill. that is an attack on the first amendment. that is very, very, very serious. neil: the so-called gag order they are still pushing that even though we had the c.b.o. report said much of human man that's claims were accurate. where is all of this going. will it seriously disrupt the deal if not jinx it? >> this is far from the final product. there are 500 amendments that i think they are trying to pass in the next few days, which is an impossible task. any employer tha

. >> ben, you are the resident historian here.as the government ever been able to save money on a plan this ambitious? >> never, and it is a sign of an amateurish politician that is saying he is going to take it out of waste, fraud and abuse in medicare. it will never happen. politicians would consider that a laugh outloud joke t doesn't happen. it will affect old people's health and welfare. there will be a bad relationship, a worsened relationship between patient and, doctor, all in the name of giving health insurance to a small percentage of the people whom he just could have given money to to buy health insurance plans. it is a complete revamp of the american system to help a tiny amount of people. >> and $500 billion, it seems so unrealistic of savings. >> i have a question and a radical thought. my question is when did we become to be such pessimists? what happened to reagan-style optimism? this country? >> there is a difference between pessimist and realist. we're talking $500 billion. have you ever seen a government achiev

neil: ben? >> well, the thing that interests me about this is ten-year projections about global warming. they're my most favorite predictions. look, we can't tell the weather two days in advance. we can barely tell the weather one day in advance and somehow these scientists are going to tell us within one degree or a tenth of a degree what the temperature of the earth is going to be in ten years, 20 years or 30 years, and in response to that ridiculous idea that they can predict the future, we're going to turn the energy oasis in this country upside-down. that is so crazy it is unbelievable. it would be comical if it weren't going to have real effects on so many real people. >> stay tuned for a ten-year look at weather. stocks in full rally mode. our guests have the recovery pick. cheer clear carol, when you replaced casual friday with nordic tuesday, was it really for fun, or to save money on heat? why? don't you think nordic tuesday is fun? oh no, it's fun... you know, if you are trying to cut

ben, long-term bull, short-term worrywart. what's your take on the stock? >> we think the worst is priced in. we're definitely buyers and we're overweighted positions. our favorite stock is tava, but we also like j&j and abbott as you mentioned earlier. we think the valuations have been compressed, similar to what happened in the clinton plan discussion and that discounting the worst case outcome, that's very improbable event. >> other people out there don't like drug stocks because they say pharma will lose with obama care. >> i think pharma will do quite well. he'll get a scaled down version of the public option. they won't have much teeth. they won't cut costs very much which means drug companies will be free to charge what they want. >> so joel miller, peter is betting that stocks will fare well because of in essence of failure of obama care. what do you say? >> people are just waiting for things to come to an end. people don't know what's going to happen so they're constitusi the spliens. >> at the least, no matter passes, even ending the uncertainty c

as herb said -- ben, rather. sorry, ben, for the generational flicks, i'm old.as ben acknowledged, people have talked about waste and fraud. how are they going to do that, there's the medicare advantage plan, which pays more than other medicare plans. we can cut that back. there is duplication, electronic records can help. i am not convinced that we will find all of the savings that we want. i am convinced that we should not reduce the services under medicare. and i know the president did say, if we cannot achieve this with anti-waste methods in medicare,well find other spending cuts. that may be necessary and i have plenty of places in this federal budget where we can find them so that we can provide that medical care. >> larry: john king, what do you think's going to happen? between these two viewpoints. >> well, i think the most interesting calculation is that, look, the president said he wanted to reach out to republicans today. he said his door was open, but he also said the clock is ticking. and he is proceeding as if he's going to have to do this with onl
