they're all pretty good guys, charlie dent, patrick meehan, et cetera.l, if i'm running the campaign against them next time, hey, pat meehan is a good guy, but we're never going to get anything done in congress as long as pat meehan is in congress because he's going to vote for john boehner and he's going to make sure that nothing gets done. and we have this congress that's destructive. the only way to change things is to get rid of pat meehan and fitzpatrick and those moderate republicans that are left. and there are enough of them that if they lose them in the suburbs all over this country, they're going to lose control of the congress. so i think they're going down a path that's idiotic for them. >> that sound like harry truman going after the do-nothing congress between '46 and '48 and it worked. he blew them out of the saddle. all they wanted to do was hold hearings like darrell issa and investigate for communists. let me go back to chris on this. when you go up there and cover them, not just in numbers, in history, but the way they are today, do th

and we're going to say look, pat meehan is a good guy. you can't elect pat meehan, because that will keep control of the house in republican hands, and the tea party runs the show. so you can't vote for pat meehan, even though he is a good guy. and that's where they're going to lose. they're going to lose control in those areas. >> nia, the other reason that they will have problems is on the very facts of the affordable care act. the president made a very affirmative case defending the success of the affirmative health care act. listen to this. >> as we speak right now, for 85% of americans who already have health insurance, they are benefitting from being able to keep their kid on their plan if their kid is 26 or younger. you've got millions of people who received rebates because part of the affordable care act was to say that if insurance company isn't spending 80% of your premium on your health care, you get some money back. folks who have been bumping up with life-time limits on their insurance, that leaves them vulnerable. that doesn

. >> president obama former body meehan said playing 15 games of spades or heartsore whatever it might be while our military was risking their life to killed osama bin live in what is your view? >> another disturbing pattern by the commander in chief. the navy seals were in harm's way the old committee of all missions and the president goes to play 15 games of spades? you can say he was stressed out and did not want to watch a realtime this is the commander-in-chief of the armed forces also calling into question what he was doing on the night of september when americans were also in harm's way we still have no reports what he was doing. >> you can put your money on either one. we have no ideas. >> i believe he went to sleep during the benghazi raid that is the testimony from leon panetta before the senate when asked by lindsey graham did you go to bet? no. did dempsey go to bet? no. did the president go to sleep? i don't know. the president did not talk to anybody i'd think he went to sleep i wish she would have been playing spas as gimmicky added 10 minutes phone call with hillary cli

flores. >> i thank chairman meehan and director wulf, mr. called well, thank you for -- mr. caldwell, thank you for joining us. you told the global security newswire that cfats is absolutely shared responsibility. you further noted, quote, facilities that are in the business of dealing with high-risk chemicals have an obligation to do that reporting just as i have an obligation to file our taxes with the i.r.s. the i.r.s. doesn't necessarily come back -- come out and look for us, end quote. so as you've said, i think also most stakeholders would agree that building resilience across the chemical sector is not something that a single agency or single company, industry or even government can do by itself. just as i agree with what you said. with that said, how do you envision d.h.s.'s role among all the players that are involved in this effort? and to what extent do you believe that d.h.s. should take the lead in this effort? >> i think with chemical, with respect to chemical facilities security, d.h.s. does have an obligation to lead in this area. and we're committed to doing

you know, when we campaign against a good guy against pat meehan next time, we're going to say pat's okay, but he's controlled by the republican leadership and they're controlled by these wackos, the divisive, hateful people who you don't like. the only way to change it is to get rid of republican control of the house. that middles him, doesn't it? forces him to say, well, i'm not one of them. that puts him in a bad situation. >> but there are certainly districts where it is just the base, so a congressman -- >> delaware county is not like that. >> as you know, not like that, very modern, but i know that tom coburn example better. he said, number one, i am not calling for impeachment. i am saying there are people calling for them. i do think he's incompetent, but i also consider him a friend of mine. >> who is more powerful -- this is loaded. here's the question. is boehner more powerful, or is the angry guy in the last row at the next town meeting? >> i'll be honest, i think it's the angry guy as long as he's also writing checks to candidates. what's happening is we're being driven

and so we went out drinking that night in my rabbi is in incredible guy and then this little irish meehan and this man named romney and i smiley in the book if this is the real thing in gave it to him he was talking that night talking about the towers of by then he had heard this story. costs but he was a military intelligence as the green beret and reserves in he would go down on the weekends in he would hear about ramzi yousef before they rendered him back to new york to get evidence there was a plot about hijacking airplanes to fly into buildings they had given it to the southern district and nothing happened. this is 1997. one year later. of this guy was hot and he thought they would come back again from below but did not edition planes until he heard about that plot. this is the significance. with any great military organization you need operation and intelligence guys blowing things up on the ground mike ramzi yousef and a spy. ali mohamed was in the unit that killed anwar sadat and was literally objected to form with the london and he blew his cover then put of the watch list so he

. >> congressman meehan says he intends to hold hearings on this data hub issue in september.t was the health inspector general that sounded the initial alarm saying quote several critical tasks remain to be completed in a short period of time such as the final independent testing of the hub security controls, remediating security vulnerabilities identified during testing and obtaining security test iing authorization before opening the exchanges. and securities for medicaid and medicare services of cms says quote, we're on schedule and ready for the marketplace to be open on october 1. they have extensive experience operating information technology systems that handle sensitive data. this is a massive data system that will be one of the greatest collection of private information on american citizens and critics worry there will be a rush to approve it and they'll try to work on security later in. >> that would be the wrong order. let's hope they can work out any security kinks first. thank you. >> thank you. >>> now for a look at the new economy. wall street reportedly taking

and the security component and a rush to finish is concerning pennsylvania congressman patrick meehans, quote: this data hub is a hacker's dream. in the rush to meet arbitrary deadlines, i'm concerned that corners will be cut and mistakes will be made, the alarms are sounding. the data hub will gather and share information from seven different government agencies. states will also have access to the data and contribute information. jamie: so the question, mike, is what response have we gotten from those involved with setting up this aspect of obamacare? >> reporter: well, the centers for medicare and medicaid says, quote: cms has extensive experience building and operating technology systems that handle sensitive data. this experience comes from many years administering the medicare, medicaid and chip programs. one analyst we talked to predicts they will gdone. >> you know, cms has some of the smartest data geeks on, in the country working on it. furiously. and, i mean, every indication is that they're going to be ready to go october 1 nationwide. and i haven't seen anything really co

michael meehan, democratic strategist, president and ceo of ben squared communications.r web site is vennsq.com. michael, good to see you. before we move on from kentucky, i have to say i think one of the best lines i've ever heard in politics, allison grimes, allison lundergan grimes over the weekend talking about mitch mcconnell and his obstructionism in the united states senate said that you could tell him he had a kidney stone and he still wouldn't pass it. >> great line! fell off my chair when i heard it. [ laughter ] >> bill: i think we'll hear that one again. i say watch out for her! of course, she's got to get through the primary first. he does have a primary. >> he does. he's got a tea party candidate in there. >> bill: that's good. so on the republican party side, chris christie and rand paul, the last day or so, i don't think i've seen any new charges but they were really going at it to the point where rand paul says maybe we should have a beer and talk this over and because maybe not that far apart and chris christie says i don't have time to have a beer with
