good now karl denninger the f.c.c. this week defended its no wrongdoing settlements claiming that they were a deterrent to banking crimes your thoughts okama you don't really believe that it's just a tax i mean i suppose if you track something you get less of it but deterrent please all that happens is it gets passed on to the cost of borers and other people doing business with these banks there's no deterrent effect yeah to understand this because these big banks keep doing the same fraud over and over again they pay as you as you point out a tax basically it's fully factored into this business model it's not a turns at all how can marry shapiro get away with a straight face and saying that this is a turn in last she is part of the problem which i suspect that's the case carl. well of course she's part of the problem look through the entire reason the scam goes on just take a look at the primary you are list and start locking up some of these people and closing these institutions down and then tell me how treasury is

third place. >> but karl rove is calling michigan. >> yes, karl rove and his little white board. >> butt. >> take it for what you will. >> bill is over at the touch screen tonight. hi, bill. >> who are we to question karl? i mean, come on. good evening to both of you and to our viewers at home. this is how we can show you why. based on the results map for michigan as to why we cannot call this race at the moment for mitt romney or rick santorum, and this goes to what karl has explaining moments ago. you are at 37% of the vote now. romney holds on to a three-point lead over santorum, if you drill down to the county map you can tell why romney feels good so far about the night and why santorum is holding on to hope. this is oakland county. there are a lot of votes in this county just north of detroit. romney has a commanding 15-point lead which somewhat mirrors what he did four years ago. we will show that you in a mommy. further to the east, this is macomb county. this is an area rick santorum thought he would do very well. reagan democrats here. romney with a then lead. romney is up by

how will the budget plan play out in the presidential elections, karl rove joins us.ng any place to begin with? >> it will be an object of discussion. let's tree treat it as a serious document it give you the insights into his thinking. you mijd his claim he is going to cut $4 trillion over the next decade as jack lew said. there is 2.50 cents in cut for every dollar in taxes, you know what? it turns out not to be the tairs indication. keith hennessey out of stanford drew my attention to the document. this is the budget table. one of them is called summary table s-3, deficit reduction as of january 2011. it spells out how the president is going to get $4 trillion in spending reductions, deficit reductions. he is going to increase taxes by trillion five and he is going to have three point 8 trillion in so-called spending reductions. if you look at this table, it shows you something interesting. first of all they are counting $1.7 trillion in spending cuts that have already been en academy in previous years. they are counting that in this year's budget. that is complete

bankers on wall street looking to defeat president obama we're committed to providing a balance to karl rove and the koch brothers who have pledged more than a half billion dollars to their effort and. and the president's campaign manager jim messina echoed the sentiment saying quote with so much at stake we can't allow for two sets of rules in this election whereby the republican nominee is the beneficiary of unlimited spending and democrats unilaterally disarm regardless there's a lot of people unhappy with this decision one being former senator russ feingold who's been one of the most vocal critics of too much money in politics he said quote it is a demo pro choice the president president is wrong to embrace the corporate corrupt politics of citizens united and that's what you're doing when you start using consorting with super pacs so what might be the fallout from all this what does it mean for the two thousand and twelve elections and what does this do to the effort the big effort to get money out of politics. here to answer that question is lee phone investigative reporter with r

karl rove was -- has a hissy fit over nothing. clint eastwood has been a conservative but what that told me, ed, is they are starting to understand that they've destroyed their brand. their brand, ronald reagan's brand was optimism. they were the ones with faith in the country, they were the ones who believed our brightest days were ahead. and they managed to pick democrats off in this kind of nervous nellies and critical of the country and not great believers in the spirit. what i think you have seen now is karl rove is terrified, when he hears that language it sounds like barack obama. it wasn't about barack obama, but it sounds like it. that is not good news for republicans and it shows how far that we've turned a corner where the republicans are the negative, nasty pessimistic ones and the democrats are the ones with the optimism. >> i find it amazing, you think back in the days, e.j., karl rove running the political machine for george bush, must be a low day for him to have to come out and comment on a super bowl ad that talk

powerful cold medicine with a heart. >> greta: back with karl rove.t this budget. >> guest: just one thing. this is not a serious budget if you don't take on mandatory spending. cbo says 57% of the budget is mandatory spending plus 7% interest. so 64% of the budget is on autopilot and president has made no recommendations of mandatory spending. notices at serious budget. it's a political document designed to give him chances to go out in battleground states and talk about favorite subjects but not designed to be a serious attempt to deal with the fiscal problems facing the country. medicare goes broke in 2021, social security goes bankrupt in 2036. deficits drop slightly tending up in the long haul and he has underestimated the sides of the deficit and overestimated economic dpreoth in all the pleojs. we can't count on him. current deficit is 40% bigger than he forecasted five months ago. into the serious document. >> greta: let me turn to the g.o.p. race. santorum is tied with romney and what caught my attention two more polls, in michigan. two polls

end of the day the political system rewards complacency so to talk solutions let's bring back and karl denninger a blogger and radio host of the market ticker and author of the book leverage how cheap money will destroy the world and karl i'm really curious what incentives at all do politicians have to not lie about things like you know deficit spending an order to get elected and what incentive do they have to do anything about u.s. fiscal problems. absolutely none then what you've seen from barack obama appears to be an acceleration of what george bush did but in fact he's just following the geometric series that we've done over the last thirty years so we didn't change anything and that's the problem at the end of the day is that this is the nature of geometric functions everybody learns about them in about the eighth grade the united states and yet we all forget about them as soon as we go into public office because you can't buy votes if you don't promise to spend what he's told have to do what he likes higher taxes and at the end of the day the government in our country has never
