elijah cummings serves on the joint economic committee and joins me from the white house.alk about the fiscal cliff negotiations. what negotiations? what's happening behind the scenes? >> first of all, i just heard what mr. mcconnell said. and i just left the president. one of the things that he said to us, he said, don't pack up your bags. in other words, he's determined to get this deal done and get it done before the end of the year. the fact is, the president is very much engaged but he also understands that one of the things he's got to do is get a balanced package done. he's got to have revenue and he's also got to have some very targeted cuts. so -- and he also is trying to get across the point that republicans and democrats agree that those folks making less than $250,000, their tax cuts should be extended. so, again, we've got a situation now where the republicans can stand on the sideline or they can adhere to what the public has said in this election. they want us to get the deal done and move forward. at least we can get done what we already agree on. >> would

joining us is congressman cummings. good morning. congratulations on your re-election. >> thank you very much. >> so much to talk about. let's get started with general petraeus resigning from the cia. what do you make of this? >> first of all it's very unfortunate. i know john petraeus very well. i got a chance to meet with him. i know there are a lot of questions here. all of this is under investigation. as a matter of fact, i expect the committee that i'm a ranking member of will be looking into some aspects of it. but, you know, it's very unfortunate. >> the reason stated an extra marital affair. the timing of this right after the election, right before he's supposed to testify. why is he not still going to testify in the attacks against libya? >> i honestly don't know, but i think it's -- i think that he should testify. but we'll see. there's so many questions. story just came out friday. so what i have noticed in these investigations is that you started off with certain conclusions. lot of times the facts don't match the conclus

for our sunday morning q&a, elijah cummings stopped by.g his interview we asked what he thought of general petraeus' resignation. >> what i've noticed in these investigations is that you start off with certain conclusions. a lot of times the facts don't match the conclusions that you come up with. i think we need to wait and see. you can bet your bottom dollar this matter will be thoroughly investigated, and we'll come up with the answers. but right now i think we've just got to concentrate on making sure that our military is supported and that we get out of afghanistan, as the. said we would, and that we take care of our troops. >> congressman cummings also commented on the fiscal cliff washington is facing. he says he is confident a deal will be reached in time. to mark vet advance day the president and first lady, michelle obama, participated in a wreath-laying ceremony at arlington national cemetery. before it began the president hosted a white house breakfast for vet advance. afterwards he and mrs. obama visited arlington section 60,

we talking to eli gentleman cummings earlier this evening. a lot to come up after the presidential election is decided. we talked to him about how he expects to handle l the days going back to work after the votes are tallied. >> so the president, no matter what he did -- and i'm an eyewitness because i'm basically his lawyer in the congress, every single thing he tried to do, they trooied to defeat so hopefully now that they don't have that incentive from trying to stop him from being re-elected, maybe we can get cooperation. >> that is of course if the election is decided tonight. one other thing cummings had to say is with a little cooperation across the i'lls he -- aisle he felt we could have unemployment in the 5% aj range. i know when we talked to the senator he had something to say. >> yeah, we caulked to ben cardin about that very issue and how the associated press is reporting now that the republicans will maintain control of the house and the democrats will control the senate. we asked senator cardin how they look to work together f

"the president's health care law adds a massive, expensive, unworkable government program at a time when our national debt already exceeds the size of our country'
