Fate? Did she seriously ask about fate? What a moron.

Thanks to liberal policy the world economy is crashing. We must do two things to stop the meltdown NOW!!! Firstly, we need to raise all payroll taxes 10% for one year. We also need to stop (right now) wasteful handout programs like medicare, social security, unemployment,, etc. and lower the minimum wage to $2/hr so we can compete with China for jobs. I will work with Boehner, Ryan and my other republican colleagues and take immediate action on these proposals. God bless the GOP!

I can't believe this chick is arguing with their panel!

Answer this question honey, why is it that the business manufacturing climate more hospitible in Communist China than in the United States of America?

Wanna know why those factories are overseas? Because the enviro nutcases, backed up by the power of the EPA, create so many regulations, and hurdles, that these companies can barely wipe their ass let alone build a manufacturing plant without running into a lawsuit, or some kind of fine.

~28:27 Term limits baby!!!!

Get these guys in and out, before they have an opprotunity to get used to sucking on the tax payers teet!!! Put a bill up for a vote, and you'll see who the villans are by their vote. Just like you can see everytime someone votes against a voter ID bill, you see who IS and who IS NOT for a valid election process. The heros are the ones willing to sacrifice themselves for the public good.

Sounds like the Answer Shieffer woudl prefer is to have aNOTHER govt regulation that would tell private industry that once a business generates a certain level of profit they are required to take on new expenses like hiring new staff. That's a great idea! You have to hire more people now, and when taxes dbl in 5 or 10 yrs to pay for all this spending, then the corps will be the bad guys again for laying off people they weren't ready to hir in the first place, because they can't afford them!

@abola2121 are you assuming I watch other major media of a specific flavor in lieu of CBS? I would hope that when we thinking citizens look for news, we go to a variety of sources and try to obtain in depth information, not a glossing over of real issues. The fact I was attempting to find that in depth discussion in this short video should calm your attack. I don’t believe that main stream media is relevant anymore. That doesn't mean I won't go there in search of a sliver of relevance though.

@mrtomsr Not biased enough for you?

@PaulElliott0560 Last I checked Obama still has our servicemembers in harms way, increased one war and started another. Wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are bipartisan. Look at one of the most Republican state Texas and compare it to California one of the most Democratic. Texas has created over 700,000 jobs in the last 10 yrs and California has lost over 600,000 in that same time period.
