and deputy editor dan henninger, mary o'grady and steve moore. let's go to you first, steve. based on our conversations this week, you like this deal a little more than do i. why don't you make the best case for it, for the deal? >> well, paul, this was for republicans a kind of eat your spinach moment. i just don't see any other alternative to what happened. and look, i think this is a rancid deal for so many reasons, especially the fact i think it's harmful to the economy. i guess my point, paul, would be i don't see republicans had much choice. i mean, you talk to john boehner and you talk to mitch mcconnell for six, seven weeks the president would simply not budge one inch on cutting spending and had no interest in doing that. the republicans believed and i think they're probably right if they'd gone into 2013 without the tax issue resolved they'd be pummelled day after

steve moore, how do we get the economy back on track?> the pete peterson foundation came out with a report saying the way we're going right now we're on track to have gdp ratio of 200%. debt-to-gdp ratio would be 200% by 2040. >> i'm much more of a growth hawk than i am a debt hawk. the truth is with really low interest rates right now, if we were growing at three or four or 5%, the debt wouldn't be nearly the burden that it is. and the only thing that i really worry about, the reason, the only reason the de keeps me up at night at all, mill list sachs what happens with interest rates start to rise? if there is interest rate move, 200 basis points, that blows another $2 trillion hole in the budget. melissa: that is true. brian wesbury, how do we get the economy growing again? that has been the question of the hour for four years? >> i've been answering it for four years. cut the size of government. the reason the economy boomed in the late 1990s was because we had great new technologies, the pc and the internet but government was only 18

steve moore, that doesn't seem right, but anyone, what do you make of it -- but anyway what do you make>> this is distinguished men and women around the country. they came four meetings to give the president advice how to make the economy grow faster. it looks like the president took almost every recommendation and did exactly the opposite. maybe they have a knack for a number of months. >> neil: whether i saw that, well, you know you and i attend a lot of meetings, not together because i don't think i could deal with that -- maybe they do something on the phone or e-mail each other or here a great idea for jobs. i don't know. i'm trying to give the best light on this, i don't think that happened either. >> i actually read the list, scores of recommendations about how to make this economy grow faster and create more jobs. everything from immigration policy, more skilled people in and create jobs in america. let's bring the tax rates down and reform the tax system. let's have more pro drilling and pro energy policy. let's get some of the these regulations to make sense. we go on and on,

steve moore is a retired fbi agent, he advocated for the release of amanda knox, and he's investigated's case for free. here we are in front of the palace of justice. is this a place of hope for jacob? >> no. no, the palace of justice is a misnomer. there should be an atm in the lobby. it should have a "we take credit cards" sign on the front. >> what's really happening to moore and others on jacob's defense team is an old fashioned shakedown. bolivian officials are demanding money. >> here's a guy they see coming in from new york who's got probably a lot of liquid cash and they saw an opportunity. >> jacob's wife miriam has made the 4,000-mile trip back and forth to bolivia more than a dozen times. she knew what was going on and told us she was scared for her husband. >> the way things are going there, the justice system, the corruption, i don't even know if i should talk about that there. doesn't look like they're going to release him any time soon. >> a big hug and a kiss. >> when she arrives at the prison, they are for a moment an ordinary american couple again. but the little ones

we will talk to steve moore in a is second about what boehner said after this.ht explain this. nancy pelosi pushing for still more revenues this week and republicans demanding dollar for dollar tax hikes to spending cuts. what makes you think we will make any progress wielding this out of control when we are not. steve, why less won't be more. steve this is fascinating. tell me exactly what went down. >> i did the interview with speaker boehner on friday over in the capitol and one of the first things that he told me in the meeting. i said what was the most interesting thing and shocking thing about the five weeks of negotiations in the oval office with president obama? and he said at one point the president turned to him and said you know, john, we don't have a spending problem in this country. and the speaker told me he said his jaw sort of dropped when the president said that. my jaw dropped when the speaker told me that story. and, you know, it gets to the whole issue of why there was so little progress in the negotiations. the first stage of recovery if you

joining us now is the man who got that quote, steve moore, from the wall street journal, i think thatant interview so far this year. you got it out there, that the president says no spending cuts, even as we approach this debt ceiling debate. i think that really sets the tone for the rest of the year and the rest of the administration, does it not? >> yeah, it really does, stuart. and you know, when speaker boyner told me thboyne boyne-- boehner told me that, my jaw dropped, i think your jaw dropped probably when you heard it, too, because if the president says we don't have a spending problem, what's the first stage of recovery from addiction, you have to acknowledge you've got a problem, right? so i think that tells a lot about why they didn't reach a deal, but you know, i'll make this point, stuart. i think that republicans, now that that tax deal is done, i think they are now negotiating from higher ground. now shall as you've heard john boehner and mitch mcconnell say now it's all going to be about spending. if they don't reach a deal, you've got, as you know, you mentioned the d

i want to bring in for thoughts "wall street journal" senior economics writer steve moore covering fiscal cliff from the beginning when it's just a little, i don't know. mole hill. a cliff. now, what is it? how wall street reacted whachl is your reaction. >> wall street will probably react that this is finally over. but this is, as you've been saying all night, this ain't over. this is the first stage of the debate. and i think the president is going to have a big tight fight on his hands, the debt ceiling which is the next big fiscal issue what. is interesting is that the president said the other day when the deal was first kind of broched, then just said this again in the statement that he wants a balanced approach going forward. and i can guarantee you this that republicans are in no mood for tax increases this year, i think that is where they're going to lock horns. what this debate has been about is not little issues. this is not small this, is the difference between the two parties where democrats say we want to grow the government ask have higher taxes to pay for it. republicans sa

this week, wall street journal assistant page editor, james freeman and senior economics writer steve moore and washington columnist kim strassel. kim, where did that come from? i don't remember the climate change being something that the president talked a lot about in the campaign if at all. >> surprise. >> paul: and he didn't wait for the state of the union, it's in the inaugural address. so, what's going on here politically? >> well, i think some of us did think it was coming. remember, this was a high priority of his back in 2008 when he campaigned. but they got beat up on it, they lost that fight in 2009 so he they decided to put it aside and not talk about it in the election and here we are, back with his promise and what was more interesting, too, not only did he make that promise, but you had somebody like barbara boxer, whose the senator from california, big climate person, she gave some details, too, how they intend to pursue this, normally through the epa for a carbon regulation program and thinking of putting in place a carbon tax. >> paul: oh, well, we'll talk a little about t

"wall street journal" assistantan editorial page editor james freeman, senior economics writer steve moore, and washington columnist kim strousel. kim, where did it that come from? i don't remember climate change being something a president talked about a lot in the campaign if at all. >> surprise. >> he didn't wait for the state of the union, it's in the inauguralof address. what's going on here politically? >> look, i think some of us did think this was coming. ler, this>> was a high priority of his backk in 2008 when he campaigned. but they got beat up on it. they lost that fight in 2009. so they decided to put te'o side and not talk about it in the election. here we are back with his promise. and what was more interesting, too, is not only did he make that promise, but you had someone like barbara boxer who is the senator from california, a big climate person, she gave some details, too, about how they intend to pursue. this namely, they are going to go through the e.p.a. to do a big carbon regulation program. they are also thinking of putting in place a carbon tax. >> well, we will ta

steve moore of "the wall street journal" said we had heard that i'm not going to negotiate with the president and now we find out that the president told speaker boehner that the country doesn't have a spending problem. does this tell you anything you that you don't need to know about the democratic agenda? >> is that we think we should be spending more than $3 trillion a year. >> when you're dealing with that, it's hard to know how you're going to negotiate with that. gerri: thank you for coming on tonight, it's always great to see you. >> thank you. gerri: the best laid plans of mice and men. like the tax bonanza that democrats are eagerly awaiting. that may already be behind us. more than 1000 public companies declared special dividends. the president lobbied to put things in place to make sure that the wealthy pay their fair share. but some did better than oters. not only did cost no paid early dividends to avoid taxes, but they made it a mega-dividend. $3 billion. equip equivalent to more than six years of that. not only do they frontload the payment ahead of the tax deadline, the compan

, constitutional expert ilya shapiro and sabrina schafer as well as "the wall street journal"'s steve moore. steve, a disturbing series of events, to put it mildly. >> no question about it, neil. and, look, we have a three-branch system of government in washington. the president is the chief of the executive branch, that means the president doesn't make the laws, he executes the laws that congress passes. and, you know, i'm in austin, texas, today. here in texas everybody's been talking about this. what is with all these executive orders? what gives the president the authority to do this? and the one that, you know, i'm most interested in, obviously, is whether the president will try to unilaterally raise the debt ceiling without approval of congress. and that is the scuttlebutt right now in washington, that the president is simply going to do it whether congress authorizes that extension or not. neil: you know, sabrina, it's odd that this occurring the same week we saw the movie "lincoln" honored with 12 oscar nods. of course, a lot of people point to the fact that abraham lincoln, you kno

joining us now democratic strategist john halinko and steve moore, i love this.day wants to turn an across the board spending cut into a tax hike. >> it is hard for president obama to make the case against it because it was barack obama's idea in the first place to have it. now democrats are sprinting from it. the reason is democrats thought republicans wouldn't be able to swallow the sddefense cuts. but they came to the conclusion, it is the only way to cut spending and the idea that we are going to transfer and get rid of the sequester and raise taxes. if any single republican voted for that, i would want them extracted from the party. it is the opposite of what we want. we had the biggest tax increase weeks ago. >> what is the president's position going to be? is he going to team up with harry reid and turn this into a tax hike xwbill? >> what we need to do is focus on the long-term deficit. i agree. you raised the point about the need to get together and come up with a deal and eliminate the deficit, that would be great. but cutting a massive, massive cut in

here is an update from an old friend and pair of ours, author of "beyond outrage" and steve moore, i guess robert reich attacks things, but why is it your democratic friends never want to cut spending and never want to shrink the government? why is that? >> i think a lot of documents are willing to cut spending that maybe you would agree with, larry. the problem with this bill, the biggest problem is it doesn't deal with the debt ceiling. we are going to have trench warfare and this is not going to end. >> the debt ceiling which is a scary thing. the republican's last shot at leverage, but markets get real nervous as i do when you start messing around with the us credit worthy news. and during the negotiations the democrats had no interesting spending. let me say one thing about this deal. if you look at the specifics of the deal, you know, it is not such a terrible thing, it is probably the best that republicans could get. but i want to make this point loud and clear. this is raising taxes on investment and businesses. i don't see anything good about it for the markets. we finally h

mary estasia and steve moore. steve, let's go to you first. based on our conversations this week, you like this deal a little bit more than i do. why don't you make the west case for doing it for the deal? >> this was for republicans eat your spinach moment. i don't see any other alternative to what happened. look, i think this is rampant deal for so many reasons. i think it's for the economy, my point is that i don't think republicans have much choice. you talk to john boehner and for mitch mcconnell the president would not budge one inch on cutting spending. he had no interests in doing that. the republicans believe, i think they were probably right, they had gone into 2013 without this tax issue resolved, they would be pummeled day after day. i hate the deal but i think it was the least

steve moore on more with stopping a far more sin -- sinister violation being done to the kids right nowsteve, that would be a prop well played, would it not? >> it would. you know, i've been in the town for a long time, neil, as you know, and for 25 years, i've seen politicians of both parties using children as props for their political agenda. we saw the president do that today with his gun agenda, and it's always struck me as, i guess it struck you, that no one brings the kids up to the stage to talk about the enormous debt, which really is a form of taxation without representation if you think about it because they pay bills for things they never volted -- voted on. it's something both parties should pick up on, especially republicans if they want to have this fight with the president on the debt ceiling. you know, what are we doing about the kids that you care so much about? neil: you know, charlie, you represent young people to get their minds attune to what's going on, and the possibility, that their share of this burden will be greater, and what reaction do you get from other you

howard we will go back to steve moore, there was a lot of stuff he was citing and you were citing and looked this over. it does not address the big cliff issues. there are a lot of goodies. >>guest: there are. what is infuriating as a taxpayer we are supposes to clean this out. you played the clip of president saying we are getting rid of the special loophole but mr. president you signed into law a bill that adds literally tens of billions of special provisions that most people do not have, small businesses do not have unless they have a lawyer, an accountant and lobbyists in washington. let me say this: the bill is so bad, so bad, it almost makes the case if tax reform. we have to blow up this tax code and start over. if you want exhibit a, read this document. >>neil: they could have widened the margins and cut the puppy down to ten pages but i digress. back to howard berg who is made famous by reading the entire health care bill and telling us what a disaster it would be. what he has discovered is next. >>neil: you are look like at howard berg who stopped reading the 154 fiscal clif

they really do want it and reading again reading steve moore's article and watching how this played out they should feel confident they can push over the republicans and get it. >> neil: they feel they have their number now. charles payne. meanwhile, shut the government down. arizona republican governor says if that is what it takes to start cutting the spending then do it and do it now. congressman, i know a number in the media were shocked at your standing by that but you still stand by that. explain. >> absolutely. i came to washington this time to cut spending and to balance the budget. i didn't come there to be a congressman again. i came there to do a specific job. used to say i like to fight for the next generation to make sure we don't pass those tax burdens on to them or paying the debt back to them. but it is not about future generations any more. it is about the guy that retires tomorrow. and so, frankly, i believe we have got a very, very tough job to do and it going to take some tough love and after this latest bait and switch by pelosi and the president where they said jus

joining us with more is steve moore. he laid out his agenda, a whole host of things. why not focus on jobs. does he think that this recovery is so on track that jobless rate will continue to fall, steve? >> i was struck by that also. in the whole speech, he did not talk about jobs. he did not talk about private business and entrepreneurs. it was a very pro-government speech. the president has a big challenge ahead. we still have a near 8% unemployment rate in this country, chipolte, over the last four years of this suppose it recovery. i do not think he mentioned the word jobs in that entire speech. dagen: three times. we did a quick count. >> i stand corrected. dagen: if you go through the list of things that he covered, that he wants to tackle, i said gun control at the top, immigration, climate change, equal pay for women, i could go on, but if he focuses on this, what does that do to the economy? what does that do to jobs? if you look at the broad overall agenda, i do not think a lot of this helps the economy much and i do not think it helps the employers. we just

i think steve moore is a great champion. guest: i didn't hear anybody say anything to anybody else. spending is at an all-time high. we have a spending in relation to a revenue problem. we have to take a look long term. if the people in charge of the social security system say this is not sustainable over long period of time, that spending challenge -- how do you pay for those promises? there is that part. when the deficit go up as much as they have gone up -- we're still struggling with an unemployment rate that is just below 8%. if it was 5%, things will look different. we have an imbalance on spending and revenue. part of growth is having a competitive jobs climate. that is why georgia maybe has done well. california is suffering and losing jobs. host: what about jobs going overseas? guest: they do pay american living standards. you have laws that require minimum wages in this country. we are seeing jobs that are coming back. there are jobs that do go overseas. many of those are jobs to meet markets in other places. the auto companies have big foreign operations. those sales crea

and steve moore's piece was excellent.an of boehner, i think that speaker boehner is really great and did a good job. he had no choice, but to let the upper rates go higher. that's the killer in this economy and now the democrats own it and have to live with it. charles: art, the killer, also, everyone watching the show got a check over the weekend and they saw their checks dinged and the payroll tax cuts expiring. i kind of thought that fell under the president's pledge not to tax the middle class. that's what he pledged. of all the taxes there are and all taxes are bad. but the payroll tax is the least bad of all the taxes we have. if you cut the payroll tax that will hurt the economy not help it. raising it where it should be is the correct thing to do and for economics as well my view of the world. cutting government spending is the real tax problem we have and payroll tax is not. charles: where are we going? goldman sachs says this fiscal cliff deal will take 200 billion in disposable income out of the economy, 200 bi
