cantor's time and attention. a key starter in cantor's office is leaving to set up a new super pack aimed at raising mr. cantor's profile and possibly positioning him for the vice preside presidentcy. a poll just out shows 76% of americans disapprove of how you and your republican colleagues are handling the stagnant economy, and 76%! the poll also states that over half the country wants the president's jobs bill passed, and that's 58% believe it will help the economy. listen up, mr. cantor, 75% of america, three quarters of the population, disagree with your coddling of the rich. they support raising taxes on americans making over $1 million a year. >> the policies being promoted by the administration that are sending the signal that we are not open for business in america. >> not open for business? more like closed-minded. i am joined by peter welch of vermont. good afternoon. >> good afternoon. >> the president urged house majority leader eric cantor to put his jobs bill up for a vote so the entire country wou

is eric cantor playing the bad top what we will see as john boehner's good cop?>> no, they're on the same page as on this program. they're going to oppose it, but pick out pieces of it eventually and pass them. the big story, john, is you have even senate democrats opposing this jobs bill, when it comes up early next week in the senate. democrats will be hard-pressed to get even 50 votes for closure on this thing. what is astonishing is that president obama is to the left of where he was on election day 2010, which i thought no one would have expected. you have democrats on the verge of embracing this occupy wall street movement. on the misbegotten theateree ic day party. it was mainstream compared to these folks. read that are declaration of occupation of new york, where they say corporations are perpetuating colonialism around the world, poisoning the food supply, suppressing free speech. >> it's a paranoid marxism, poisons for the democratic party. >> okay. your thoughts? [everyone talking at once] >> richard, you're cherry picking those statements. >> read th

around getting people who depend on government programs against so-called job creators isn't eric cantor the guy who is really guilty of this the fourth ranking house democrat john larson spoke with me a couple days ago actually and he said that this represents an arab spring in america i mean if the rhetoric of those who are now running to take at least co-opt the movement and you mentioned i know earlier that there are different forces that are trying to co-opt this movement and make it their own but if john larson one of the most powerful democrats in the country comes out and says this is like the arab spring in america i think that might speak somewhat to cantor's point because in the arab spring you have the overthrow of government whereas the west we assume that a movement like this is of course coming out of peace he certainly isn't right i think the comparison to the arab spring are really about young people that are disenfranchised rising up there to have a voice without a dictatorship there's not shooting as i was but there's a lot of this is about what i think is really inter

down, this is what eric cantor showed in the spirit of unity and bipartisanism. this is what he said -- >> what about in the obama plan, $35 billion for states so that they don't have to lay off teachers, police, firefighters? >> here we go again. this is the type of monies and these are the types of programs that the president advocated in the stimulus program. i think that the country understands washington doesn't create jobs. >> washington doesn't create jobs, richard. and the public understands it, and the stimulus program -- and i don't have enough time left in this segment to go back and show the graph of when the stimulus was there, how unemployment went down. but what is eric talk about? does he live in a parallel universe, richard? of course washington can create jobs. and protect jobs. >> he lives in a safe republican district. the problem is, what's going to happen in the senate for those senate republicans who need to

cantor. i thought if you don't raise taxes on the job creators, you don't have to worry about anything. he wants to encourage the job creators by lowering their taxes again. this time by 10%. tax hikes for the rich. been on the slide the last 50 years. the middle class is picking up the tab. eric cantor's income gap solution would make those numbers even worse. tonight kantor says he'll take an income gap, dog and pony show on the road. the majority leader is planning a major speech at a school in philadelphia this friday. president obama is already on the road pushing his jobs plan. the president is on a three-day bus tour which will put him in kantor's home state of virginia later this week. today president obama hammered the republicans, their plan down in north carolina. >> turns out the republican plan boils down to a few basic ideas. they want to gut regulations. they want to let wall street do whatever it wants. they want to drill more and repeal health care reform. >> president obama

and it's just not cantor.the presidential front runner are changing their tune about the occupy wall street movement. joining me tonight is mike papantonio host of the ring of fire radio show. great to have you with us. does eric cantor people are starting to worry about the political influence of this movement and it might be for real? >> they're worried about this message. and the message is stop the looting and start the prosecuting. because the people that these folks want prosecuted, the people in occupy wall street that want the prosecutions they want are the very people who are the money behind people like eric cantor and the money behind mitt romney. look, the message is clear, ed. it's a good message. the message is capitalism is a great system. one of they have greatest systems in the world, but right now it's broken. and the people on occupy wall street, occupy d.c., atlanta, you name it, the message is the same. they want to fix it and it's real simple. first of all what you have to do is remove al

(laughter) you know who you are, eric cantor?'re like the one kid on the playground always just throwing the dozens all day about someone's mom. "your mom's so dumb she thinks food stamps are what you use to mail food." (laughter) "your mom's so ugly richard dawkins used her as proof of the non-existence of god!" (laughter) no, wait! (cheers and applause) i'm assuming he goes to a private school. and then when someone else on the playground finally comes back with "oh, yeah? well, your mom's so fat..." before they even finish cantor's like "whoa! uncool! i am very concerned about all this mother talk dividing our playground! and give me your lunch money, you need to have some skin in the game." we'll be right back. (cheers s (cheers and applause) >> jon: welcome back! unbelievable. hard to believe, the occupy wall street movement is one month old today. the next thing you know they'll be moving out and getting an encampment of their own! we sent john oliver to wall street to see if the 99% had room for one more. >> occupy wall st

i don't think you can demonize eric cantor. president obama is not going to run against eric cantor, he's going to run against mitt romney, as david said, or rick perry or herman cain. my guess, it's going to be mitt romney. my guess is, that mitt romney's message on the economy is going to be much stronger than barack obama's message. so barack obama -- the president has really got to start thinking how do i fix this economy. if i fix the economy, then i can actually move forward. how do i fix the economy? it's not by running to the left, it's by running to the center and finding ways to work with the republicans in the house and senate and get something done. he's not trying to do that. he's trying to demonize characters on the right and it's not going to work. >> but john, if i may, what the president has said over and over again is let's meet in the middle and he gets rebuffed. so the enemy to progress really is the house republican leadership. he's tagging them with that and it's working. what a lot of polling shows is as

president obama laid her problems right on cantor's doorstep. >> mr. cantor should come down to dallas and look kim russ until the eye and tell her why she doesn't deserve to be in the classroom doing what she loves, helping our kids. >> that teacher, kim russell will join us here on the "the ed show" in a moment. the president also invited cantor and the republicans to face other texans who desperately need congress to pass his jobs package. >> come tell dallas construction workers why they should be sitting idle instead of out there on the job. tell small business owners and workers in this community why you would rather defend tax breaks for folks who don't need them, for millionaires rather than tax cuts for middle-class families. and if you won't do that, at least put this jobs bill up for a vote so that the entire country knows exactly where members of congress stand. [ applause ] >> so be fair about this, folks. who's the honest broker in all of this? was it not in the lame duck session of the congress that the president went along with the exte
