stockman has fought to get them money.e railed dwens the effects of sequestration and now, he's introduces the keith nasa open act to never be affected by a future government shutdown. those two headlines on his website piled atop each other tell you everything you need to know about understand about the modern republican party, modern conservatives and the tea party movement as a whole. despite what you have been told, despite what commentators entone over and over, not concerned with the debt, deficit and government spending and they aren't concerned with the size of government. what this fight is really all about is what government does. who it serves and benefits. steve stockman likes his government very much when it's imemploying its district. he doesn't seem to care about women and infants getting formula. just like the dam project, a multibillion dollar project and just like former congressman who switched from the democratic to republican party back in 2009, citing obama care as a major region, but who also just ha

the funny thing, you have people like stockman and maybe 50 or 60 other republicans in the house whoz approach and then you have about another 160 republicans in the house who understand what a disaster this is. but cannot figure out how to stop it. if they're the ones who stand up and say no, these people are crazy, we need to move toward the center, we need to work constructively with the president, we need to show people we're willing to govern, they're going to get creamed by their own base that believes in the ted cruz thing. if they don't stand up, they end up with these continuing declining poll numbers and be a permanent minority party. they're stuck. they can't figure out what to do. >> and krystal, to josh's point, ted cruz is making a real name for himself, particularly in his favorability rating, which is now ten points under water, as you can see. so i guess the more we get to know ted cruz, the less we like him. >> the less we like him. but also sort of to josh's point, in the universe he's living in, in this bubble that he's living in, he is supremely popular. and he's

exciting guests coming up on our initial lineup we have the deputy prime minister of greece david stockman former director of budget under ronald reagan and we're going to talk about a brand new scandal you might have heard of lie board this thing could be bigger and that's all coming up this wednesday and erin why should people tune in why do people care about the financial blog why why i think i mean if you don't care about trying to answer is you truly don't understand anything else that is going going gone it's not it's person and condescend not to get understanding what it's about but it's we all have money and we need money and we should learn a bit more about it and we should do it in a way that's you know digestible for everyone in an unconscious anyway because frankly it is an education for all of us even the economists they frequently change their position or go back and forth so and we can only do to break down the layman's terms of the tough and complex financial world that was host of boom bust erin eight and producer of boom bust bob english whose new show prepares this wedne

david stockman her that and is here with me now. >> that is more banter from harry reid which we comepect there will be higher taxes this is a pathetic fiasco with the shutdown shutdown, the debt ceiling when the republicans snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. they dug-in they got it sold the other river by mcconnell and some republicans. neil: but now would you break the debt ceiling? >> the debt ceiling would never be breached. they were days for improving this is a myth that there is an armageddon on the other side of october 17 and forced the president to prioritize. we said he could pay the interest and then you have a fair fight. neil: now it is lost no harry reid says there is a reason to cut spending which mimics what nancy pelosi said. i don't advocate that but it i made a mistake when i negotiated for those revenue increases it is off the table these people our weak and divided maybe the tea party will begin but then they will be sold down the river by a surrender artist but they say they don't want to cut back nobody wants to pay more taxes. we have to reform the entitl

joining me now is former congressman david stockman, d k director of the office of management and budget. the author of the great deformation. and michael, contributing editor to the american conservative, editor of the slur and david, i want to start with you. you are someone who has kind of been in and out of the conservative movement. you were kind of a purgee in certain ways. very famous profile of you in during your time in the reagan administration. you've also tangled with grover norquist. >> this isn't surprising. the republicans are no longer a political party. they're a gang. you have the neocans, tax, social and just. just cans are the fakers. but the point is on the fundamental fiscal issues, they don't agree. the neo want a bigger defense budget. we have a $650 billion war machine. they didn't get the memo the cold war ended. there's a few thousand terrorists left. by the way, when clinton left the white house, it was 400 billion this today's dollars, so they're arguing we can't do the sequester. we ought to be carrying much more. so that divides the party. then we have the

we're learning that just this week, gop congressman steve stockman sent a book on impeaching president obama to all 435 members of the house. a sitting member of congress peddling impeachment. these republicans just can't accept this president as legitimate. they're acting like the election meant nothing. declare a mistrial? 60 million americans delivered a verdict for president obama and against the gop. joining me now is congressman jim mcdermott, democrat from washington. and melissa harris-perry, host of "the melissa harris-perry show." thank you both for coming on the show. congressman, i want to put that demint comment up again. quote, the best thing is to declare last year's election as a mill tristrial on obama care. how do you respond to that? >> you know, rev, it's kind of sad. they've run the let's run the country over the cliff strategy, and that didn't work. and so now back at the second one of the republican strategies. that is let's impeach the president. that's exactly what they did to clinton. and they are going to fail at this. they simply believe that it's an impeach

then you have steve stockman. he plans to distribute a book about impeachment.rld net bailey book, impeachable offenses, the case for reof mooing barack obama from office and he plans to give a copy to every member of the house. >> that's one way to sell a book, i guess. here's the thing. we have seen in the last few weeks how this extreme talk suddenly moves into the mainstream. and before you now it, they're too scared. fear is what is ruling at least the house republicans right now. they're too scared to say, boo, this is not going to work. this is not going to fly. and we've got to stop it. so what happens? they take one of these crazy ideas, it didn't work and then they realize, gee, we look really foolish. there is a danger that this talk about impeachment moves to the heart of the republican party. there are no grown ups to say that's crazy. stop it. >> i feel like when they feel threatened they throw out this crazy rhetoric, talking about impeaching the president. and that's exactly when you see this come out. >> but aren't they intimidated by the loud t

stockman, thank you very much. that's "the ed show." "politicsnation" with reverend al sharpton starts now. good evening, al. >> good evening, ed. >>> and thanks to you for tuning in. tonight's lead, the truth about the gop effort to kill obama care. it's not really about the health care website. it's about the entire law. today republican leaders made that clear. >> you know, the problem with obama care isn't just the website. it's the whole law. >> and the bottom line is the problems with obama care run deeper than just the website. >> hear that? this isn't about the website glitches. it's about scrapping the whole thing. never mind that 17 million children with pre-existing conditions are now covered. never mind that insurance premiums are 16% lower than expected. the gop wants all this to wither on the vine. and they're offering no alternatives of their own. and today democratic congressman bill pasquel called them out on it. >> including the one i'm the coo sponsor of. >> are you serious what you just said? are you really serious?

. >> according to texas congressman steve stockman "democrats are curb stomping veterans." and today, republicans continue to rally to the cause of world war ii vets. >> to keep them from the memorial, to honor them for their greatest accomplishment. >> it is mean spirited, what is being done. >> outrage that they caused the memorial to be closed for their visit. >> the republican national committee has put aside enough money to hire five security personnel full-time to keep the memorial open for veterans. >> the unmistakable irony, of course, is that the crew that showed up to gawk at the fire is the same group that lit the match. >> we are not going to let the world war ii veterans be used as political pawns. >> and speaking of pawns, the gop is moving forward with a new strategy with gusto. >> we should move forward, so example, the continuing resolution that would simply continue the funding for the v.a. >> she said you can't pick and choose what part of the government you want to fund, you can't just say this -- >> rather than pass a bill to fund the government, republ

darwinian theory of evolution is a lie that came to us direct from the pit of hell, representative steve stockmansticker that read "if babies had guns, they wouldn't be aborted," and representative michele bachmann who believes providing affordable health care is a clear sign of the end of types and a direct fulfillment of biblical prophesy. all three of those members speak frequent live about their christian faith at the same time railing against the affordable health care to some of the nation's most vulnerable people. before they run off to their next committee hearing or fire off another letter demanding a government resignation, maybe they should listen to the words of a fellow republican, john kay sec, the governor of ohio, a governor who has accepted federal funds under the affordable care act which means an additional 300,000 of his constituents will now be covered. >> when you die and get to the meeting with st. peter, he's probably not going to ask you much about what you did about keeping government small, but he's going to ask you what you did for the poor. you better have a good answ

people like congressman steve stockman. you remember him.d a hateful rodeo clown in a president obama mask to perform in his home state. then there are others like pall broun. he's on the house science committee, but he thinks the whole climate change thing, quote, is a hoax. and let's not forget michele bachma bachmann. she's been pushing the shutdown from the start. here's what she's saying about the president. >> we can have an impeachment hearing in the house and in my mind the president has committed impeachable offenses. people aren't going to take the thuggery of this president much longer. you are not a dictator. >> yes, these are the folks demanding a shut down. they're calling for impeachment, they think racist rodeo clowns are heroes. but who put these wacky ideas in their heads? >> this is an artist, a very brave artist believe it or not, rodeo clowns. >> today i declare myself officially a rodeo clown. >> the undeniable global warming is undeniably caused by human beings. it is a hoax. all of that. i don't know how else to say i

had previously said in a town hall meeting that he would consider co-sponsoring congressman steve stockman'sirther bill. in that same town hall meeting last august yoho said this about the tanning bed tax in obama care. >> i had an indian doctor in the office the other day, very dark skin and two non-dark skinned people, and i asked -- they started laughing, and i said, have you ever been to a tanning booth? he said, no. no need. i got taxed for the color of my skin. >> like many in the tea party, yoho views himself as engaged in an epic struggle. a struggle for justice right up there with some of the great struggles in history. it only takes one with passion, he said, look at rosa park, martin luther king, people with passion that speak up. they'll have people follow them because they believe the same way. smart leadership listens to that. joining me now is charles for "esquire" magazine. the 113th congress about the reign of morons this year. charlie, you have been covering politics for longer than i have. and i think there's a temptation when someone covers politics to say this is the wor

. >>> david stockman says republicans need to take a stand on obamacare. we will ask him why. >> consider this: 10 eastern on axis america. hi, my name is jonathan betz, and i'm from dallas, texas, and] >>> welcome back. i am john seigenthaler. here are the top stories. a lot of people are having problems signing up for the affordable care act, the healthcare exchanges. the government says it's working quickly to resolve those problems. officials point out that coverage doesn't take effect until january 1st and enrollment will be open until march 31st of next year. investigators are on the scene of a church bus crash in tennessee today. the crash took place about 20 miles northeast of knoxville on i-40. the church bus overturned after one of its tires blew out. at least 8 people killed and 14 occurs injured. it was still no deal. president obama met about an hour ago with house and senate leaders to discuss the government shutdown, but they reached no agreement. republicans accused obama of refusing to negotiate. democrats accuse republicans of constantly

. >> yeah, well, you know, louis gohmert and steve stockman are the most extreme examples in the texaselegation, but the reality is, the vast majority of the republicans in the texas delegation, dare i say all the republicans, were right there alongside ted cruz. they didn't see any difference between their position and his. now, again, privately, some of them may roll their eyes and say, well, we're not sure that his tactics would be our tactics, but everybody in the texas delegation is in sync. this is the federal republic of anti-obama. >> right. >> we may not have seceded literally, but we may as well have, at least in the mind of many of these guys. washington, d.c., could be a million miles away, for all this know. >> here's the question, is there a tipping point? we've seen other states in which we've had unified republican governance, a lurch to the right, often on the backs of a 2010 victory and then redistricting. we're seeing this in north carolina, we saw it in florida, in which there is backlash, right? >> right. >> there is too far you can go, even in a fairly conservativ

texas rep steve stockman tweeting today, "even if debt ceiling stays, we'll still be paying all our bills." and if that's not scary enough, the architect of the current government shutdown gave this confused, troubling analysis of the debt ceiling earlier this year. >> what would happen if the debt ceiling was not raised is it would be a partial government shutdown, and we've seen this before. we saw this in 1995 when republicans in the house shut down the government. and what happened was, it was a partial shutdown. there was some political costs to be paid. but at the end of the day, because republicans stood strong in 1995, we saw year after year of balanced budgets and some of the most fiscally responsible policies congress has produced in the modern era. if we stand strong, we can do that again." >> reporter: the grim irony, wall street and big business helped buy this government shutdown. in obama's first year in office, wall street gave democrats almost $30 million and republicans just over $20 million. leading up to the 2012 election, wall street gave more than $36 million to repu

and yet we still have people like representative steve stockman handing out copies of a book on impeachingry single one of his colleagues in the congress. can you explain that, please? >> i can't explain it, because the one poll number that is definitely not holding steady is republican approval. three different polls, "washington post" poll, gallup and nbc poll all show record low approval rating for republicans. so while they have been shutting down the government, having political fights, they have really paid a real cost, while the one -- one of the -- one of their targets, obama care, has maintained if not gotten more popular. another thing that came out today is in pugh polls showed if you look at the people who tried to use the exchanges, a majority have said it's very easy to use or fairly easy to use. so people who are actually going to the web site and checking have a better experience than you would get from listening to the press reports. >> okay. josh, you wrote this. and i'm quoting you. you say that the failure of the website is a reason to demand better from our public sect

>> republican congressman steve stockman, who previously accused democrats of curbstopping veterans because told them to, led the crowd in a chant. >> tear down the wall! >> and finally there was the ugliest moment of the day from larry claiman of the conservative group freedom watch. >> we are now ruled, quote/unquote by a president who bows down to allah. i call upon all of you to wage a second american nonviolent revolution. demand that this president leave town, to get out, to put the koran down, to get up off his knees and to figuratively come up with his hands out. >> after that, protesters carried ba barricades to the white house and camped out with a huge confederate flag outside of the residence of the first black family to live in it. also, apparently, just after senator ted cruz told the crowd the president was using military veterans as "pawns," he and his colleague, mike lee, left the protest. and the original organizers of the event may have felt like the protest had been co-yopted by the tea party. on their website, the group states "we feel disheartened that some would seek

republican congressman steve stockman couldn't help himself, tweeting, quote, the guy who made a pregnantiabetic woman stand until she faints now runs your health care. dana, doesn't that speak to the bigger problem for affordable care act opponents? here is a woman who stands to benefit from this policy, but all republicans can think of is attacking the issue or her, indeed. >> yeah, i'm surprised we didn't have michele bachmann coming out after that saying, i told you obama care would kill people. look what it's doing. >> of course. >> you know, i mean, there's -- there's any number of crazy things that people are going to say there. the president gave what was, you know -- i think the strongest sales pitch since they did the info mercials for the ginsu knife. this mess up with the website has given republicans an opening to say we told you so, there is something wrong with this. no sales pitch is going to work until and unless they get this fixed which is why that has to be his priority. js. >> even though, dana, you know states have set up cooperative websites and have had far greater
