News poll climate change is kind of down on the list there. and there you see it. 3% from 5%. terrorism obviously taking the biggest jump in the wake of all that s happened. i think what obama is saying, if we don t destroy our economies in order to save the ocean from rising an inch or two 100 years from now, the terrorists have won. so i think you know, that s what obama believes. i thought it was actually one other sort of, it wasn t a slip. it was actually said intentionally. when he said, we can t let the terrorists direct our lives. he said go out to ball games, and shopping. remember how bush was mocked endlessly by people because after 9/11 he said i want you to go out shopping. and that was supposed to be an example of how unserious he was about what was going on around him. we will follow it. next up, senator ted cruz catches fire and chris christie may be getting a second look.

You have to pay for it somehow. it s here to stay. think about what ben said about the off balance sheet nature of the u.s. that s all the stuff if you put it all together we are in trouble. that s what happened with greece. greece got into the european union because goldman sachs and other big wall street firms finagled a derivative to hide their off-balance sheet stuff and now it s coming it took them 30 years to get to that point. why are you blaming their problem on goldman sachs? you suck um to wall street constantly. you do. you re blaming them when it was the greeks with the seven-hour workweek. you don t blame the drug dealer you blame the drug user. i blame you. you think drug dealers are bad. wall street is the drug dealer. greece is the heroin addict. capisce? if you were arguing in favor of world war ii being a good thing, i would take the opposite view just for the sake of principle. ben stein, real quickly, i know
