boehner want to cut spending and they don't want to use an ax and use a scapel they want to have bipartisan, the cbo has laid it out line by line. you cited some of the instances. i came up with another $96 billion just doing very minor simple little things. it would be like you saying to me, i spent hundred dollars a week on gasoline and my budget is out of balance. okay, you are only allowed to spend $99 on gasoline and within ten years we'll be okay. that is how small they are. you watch this thing get demagogued to debt. you are going to raise social security and do it on the backs of old people. >> neil: ten years out and youngest age, no one would be close to retirement age now. leaving aside that, this is incremental efforts to save money and i think a lot of people when they hear the tax thing demagogued, when you three to slow the growth of entitlements you are throwing granny off the cliff, but the fact of the matter is if we don't slow the growth, 1% we won't have those entitlements. granny is going to get burned and granny's children and grandchildren will get burned. the cbo ha

. >> do you really believe these sow called scapels will work.ategic strikes in iran, you will not have a broader war? >> well again, this is all speculative in terms of the military action which we don't want to see. what we do want to see is iran stopping the program before it's too late. and again the timelines are very very close. if all those options which are on the table and they include a military option, if there is no other way to stop iran we do believe that iran has to be stopped in whatever means necessary. if that includes surgical attacks so be it. but we don't want to get to that point. we hope very much to convince iran to stop the nuclear program before it's too late. >> cenk: david he indicated that israel would not be acting alone. if there is going to be a military action by spring, can you confirm that it will be israel and the united states doing it? >> i can't speak on behalf of the united states. but i can tell you again that saying all options are on the table has to be a serious proposition that iran has to believe in.

it is just a cleaver, not a scapel, but the republican hits get hit harder, just not the same way.ember, their theory of the case when it comes to the budget, the one you saw in the romney campaign, and then the ryan budget is that it needs to be cut and changed is medicare and medicaid. and over time, social security, and in particular now, programs for the poor. the one thing we really need to keep and even spend more on is defense. these spending cuts are the reverse of that theory. the spending they want to cut is protected. and the spending they want to increase is gutted. and this is a kind of insane outcome that is the consequence of the gop's no tax budget. they could get a deal from the obama administration that would cut into medicare and social security and all of these other programs in ways liberals would hate. and republicans would find somewhat congenial, as long as they also agreed to raise taxes. and they don't even need to agree to raise tax rates, that has already been done. they just need to get rid of the loopholes, but they won't, this is a corner they backed

if you are going to use a weapon to kill a child, how many scapels did they use on the 50 million children they have ordered through abortion? hypocrites, get it together. we are tired of hearing it. host: one of the proposals is the universal background check and the so-called gun show lupo on gun dealers. what do you think about universal background checks? caller: when i went in for my gun permit, they ask me for a thumbprint and to fill out a card. within 24 hours i had my permit to conceal -- a carry permit. if you are not a felon and do not have an arrest record of any sort, you are going to get a gun permit. to say that the stalkers have a right to say you are crazy, are you kidding me? they can say anything. i would never allow my child to go into a doctor's office and answer those questions, nor would he have my child a loan without me to answer the question. as a matter of fact, because of the way that the medical insurance is going, i would not even tell him i was a smoker, let alone have a gun in my house. i do not trust anybody in this administration, nor do i trust insurance
