by the way -- >> chris: but that was an advantage, an add-on. >> no, it wasn't add-on. >> chris: not basic medicare. >> it was a substitute. >> chris: you had a choice. >> you had a choice, but the choice was taken by seniors. about 25%. growing every year -- >> chris: why not more? >> it allowed seniors to go out and choose the plan they wanted. what is the key. instead of having a government top-down program, run by folks here in washington, d.c., you had the private sector going out and designing programs that seniors wanted. that is what would happen under the program. >> chris: you're saying start it now. >> at least give seniors the option to do it now. we can move forward on it. a good idea with the huge deficit we have, we need to make some of the changes sooner rather than later. >> chris: okay. you say in the battle of the budget that republicans should draw the line on policy, not about arguing over a few billion dollars. >> particularly arguing over billions of dollars that the folks don't think is enough anyway. why put your stake in ground over a number that the folks t

chris: pat? >> the sunday morning crossword, there is only one time you can find that, "the new york times." but in reality, those papers, they matter. some outlets will be march trusted in 10 years but fundamentally people need a filter. they need to know it's trusted. chris: wow. one for the filter. >> bigtime. chris: you didn't bring me in here to dig my own demise! approximate chris: will they have their day? >> i think absolutely but there will be other sources of physician as -- of information as well. online publications and -- chris: john? >> one of those newspapers won't exist 10 years from now, at least one, possibly more. chris: that's what they've been saying about the television networks for the last years. >> yes, and look at what's happened to them. if you think about how the media landscape has transformed in 10 years, that pace is accelerating. some of them are will exist. on the positive size -- side, a lot of them are building up their reporting corps and will be shouldering th

chris: why don't they just do it? >> the point is this -- the president can propose doing that, and it is a splitly popular move for the president to do that among independents. it would also take a big chunk of the deficit. if you let all of the bush tax cuts expire, you would wipe out our debt in less than five years. >> tom coburn, a very conservative republican favors reforming taxes and raising them. if you can bring rates down but still increase your revenues, and the republicans want to bring the rates down -- chris: he's willing to say let's bring up the overall revenues. >> i think he's a real conservative saying we've got to cut the debt. chris: i look at middle class guys like john boehner. most republicans are cloth-coat republicans, they're not rich. yet, they go out there like a religion. what's this fetish you wrote back? >> back in the 19 0's, daniel patrick moynihan used to say that the tax fetishism was about money they could spend, starve the beast. that's a good part of the rationale. the problem w

chris? >> chris: carl cameron reporting from capitol hill. thanks for that. joining us now is david plouffe, president obama's senior advisor. mr. plouffe, welcome back to "fox news sunday." >> good to be with you, chris. >> chris: let's peel back a little of the process. you have gone out today, pretaped some of the other sunday shows and you are live here on "fox news sunday." you are apparently saying that the president is going to lay out this week new plans to cut the deficit. tell us about it. >> well, the approach this week in terms of the scale of debt reduction the country needs to grow economically and in the future, a balanced approach. obviously, we need to look at all corners of government. as he said previously, the healthcare law is $1 trillion in reduction in the decade but we have to do more there. we have to look at more spending here, carefully. we have to use a scalpel not a machete. this is a distinction between the republican plan announced this week. that plan would give the average millionaire $200,000 in tax cuts and ask more of senio

chris: welcome back. this week's "time" magazine has this cover. "what if there's no hell?" it talks about a michigan minister, a pastor, who rocked evangelicals with a best-selling book. pastor bell argues there is no hell, thank god is a forgiving god. here's the video talking about why the traditional roots to salvation may not be necessary. >> you need to be initiated or baptized or take a class or converted or being born again? how does one become one of these few? the center of the gospel of jesus is that god is going to send you to hell unless you believe in jesus. and so what gets subtly sort of caught and taught is that jesus rescues you from god. how could that ever be good news? chris: well, of course, good news is the gospel. but you're smiling. this is the strangest topic we've ever dealt with on this sunday show. it is, of course, palm sunday. let me ask you your thoughts about that. is this a minister trying to appeal to a larger flock, is it a new revelation? what is it? >> he's addressing

chris: should she run? >> no. no. chris: should she run?> i'm with gloria, i don't think she should. remember that her positive ratings are so high right now is that because she's not seen out there in the partisan fray. chris: one she's destined to run. two should nots. >> i'd like to see her to run, not just complicating the democratic field. but if the issue is foreign policy, where the president is sometimes seen out of his depth, she has established a tremendous reputation. chris: two say she should run. where are you? >> i think she shouldn't run. i think she may decide she will. i say quit why you're ahead. chris: the men say go, hillary. thanks to gloria borger, john harris, michael gerson, cynthia tucker. thanks for watching.

quite a bit more than that. >> chris: $3 trillion? >> more than that. >> chris: $4 trillion? >> looking at more than that right now. we're fine-tuning the numbers. congressional budget office literally today, over the weekend. we'll cut more than that. >> chris: more than $4 trillion, which is a significant number. that was the president's debt commission cut it by $4 trillion. >> we'll peed the goals put out in the president's debt commission. >> chris: how do you do is that? >> cutting spending, reforming entitlements. we intend not only to put caps on spending, you have to address the drivers of the debt. we need to engage with the american people on a fact-based budget, on stopping politicians from making empty promises to people and talk to the country about what is necessary to fix these problems. now the good thing we have going for us is we have time to fix this problem. so the kinds of reform we're going to be putting throughout won't make changes to people who are already in or near retirement. if you're 55 or older, you won't see changes. if we keep kicking the can

ask chris van hollen. again no, talking points. looking to find the area of compromise. the president says let's leave it to a government panel to come up with hundreds of billions of dollars in cuts, which critics like tom coburn say means price controls and rationing. what can you do about that? >> what the president has said is first of all we have to fully enforce and commit ourselves to the affordable care act. medicare and medicaid are participants in the overall healthcare system. to the extent you can drive down cost in the overall healthcare system, affordable healthcare act will do, you drive down costs in medicare. >> chris: if i may, basically you are talking about the government panel. panel of doctors and administrators and bureaucrats and all of that, that they will come up with the idea to drive down costs and a lot of people don't believe it. >> what the republican plan talks about is having private insurance companies drive down the costs. that has not succeeded. the whole reason we creat

chris: revulsion, ok. just to correct one thing, i think that tony blair was much closer emotionally and politically to bill clinton, that's what i thought. >> no. and that surprised brits a lot and disappointed brits a lot. chris: it disappoint mess. >> i think the british have a combination of resentment and complacency. on both sides. and i don't know, do you remember the film "love actually"? that wonderful theme where you have billy bob thornton as the american president -- chris: the worst of clinton and bush in the same person. >> he comes over and bullies the british prime minister. chris: and tries to pick up the secretary. >> and hugh grant turns around and says, no and we fight back. and i watched that physical film in london and i remember that moment when hue grant said no, the brits cheered. chris: we americans cheered that when the hue grant character stood up to the billy bob because we like that guy better than the billy bob guy. you've been quiet here. >> if it's a marriage then the brits

tell me, chris, what you are most concerned about here with. because we looked at, there is a -- there are several groups. i don't want to single one out. there is one we found that is a hedge fund. it's a shariah hedge fund. could find some nefarious characters in and around, et cetera, et cetera, but you know what i'm talking about. >> yes, sir. >> glenn: but i didn't see anything that necessarily was smoking gun, bad. when it comes to finance, are we missing something we should be seeing? >> there is very few smoking guns, as you said. those two are one but the other shariah scholars are much more careful of what they've said and written over the years. it's very difficult to figure them out. look at the background of the people and you look at where they are educate and you realize they're educators in incubators for jihad. >> glenn: tiffany, do you feel comfortable me saying the name of this hedge fund? could you remind me of the name of the hedge fund?

chris salinger, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, chris. the fbi believes 65-year-old earl albert moore is the man who planted the bomb inside the shopping mall. since learning his name we've been scouring public records and learning details about the man. in fact, about a week before this incident occurred, he was released from a federal prison after serving six years for robbing a bank in west virginia. he only got about $2,000 in that attempt. authorities believe that he purchased the propane for the bomb right nearby at a target store. he was seen on surveillance photos carrying a target bag about the time that a fire broke out. that's when they found the unexploded bomb. moore has multiple tattoos on his arm, there's a rose, a dagger, he's about 6'2", but no one knows where he is at the present time. >> rick, what about a possible motive? i know this was on the 12-year anniversary of the columbine attacks. is there a link or is this coincidence? >> reporter: well, we've asked this repeatedly and the honest answer is they just don't kno
