The world is laughing at the United States, that these Democratic legislators would say, "Oh, we're over here at the hotel, ordering hamburgers, this is so cute, we're not going to come over here."

KILMEADE: So, let's talk about the downgrade. I'm only kidding. Let's do this. How about this: The New York Times postulates that maybe this is going to work out good because in 2013, the Bush tax cuts go away, and the 1.2 trillion in cuts, it'll get us on the negative term when it comes to the deficit, and that a lot of people don't really care that much about defense, and they're willing to take these cuts and this increase in taxes.VARNEY: If you think that the way to tackle our debt problem is to raise taxes and cut the military, OK, I suppose this is a good thing. If you think that that will have a good outcome for our debt and our economy, yeah, OK, The Times has a point. I think the exact opposite. The way to fix the debt problem is not with higher taxes and cutting the military, it's to grow the economy. How do you grow the economy? In my opinion, tax reform. Lower rates, fewer deductions, more revenue to the Treasury. Better economy. [Fox News, Fox & Friends,11/22/11, via Media Matters]

But besides that, we're the ones who got the benefit from it. We're the ones who spent the $15 trillion. It went to us. It didn't just disappear. It went to us. We spent it, and we did nothing about it. It is our fault that this is occurring.BOLLING: Hey wait a minute, mister. I didn't spend that money. I had no part in spending it. It's not my fault --FERRI: Oh, yes, you did.BOLLING: I didn't want the money being spent. I didn't want 43 percent of American households not to pay a dime in tax. How are you blaming me?

Well, under the Obama plan, which he is suggesting that they implement, as you could see right there, it would go back to the 1967 days where they would be combined, but the problem is if you combine, and Charles Krauthammer talks a little bit about this in one of his columns today, if you were to combine Gaza with the West Bank and the president talked about it being contiguous, you would probably have to split Israel in two.
