But i will tell you, the principles of trauma care are pretty much the same. regardless of the source of the injury, you know, they even call it abc. you want to protect someones airway, make sure theyre breathing, make sure the circulation to their body, the blood circulation, is intact or youre doing something to improve that. beyond that, you have these types of injuries, again, this explosion low to the ground causing a lot of lower extremity injuries, leg injuries. you also had the ball bea...

James, you heard the explosion. what did you see and hear? >> anderson, i was actually in the front inside the store ringing up a customer. it was around 3:48 p.m. when i heard the first explosion -- >> how far -- >> we were actually about five feet from where the bomb went off. we were literally right next to marathon sports. we actually had the door open at the time as well. it was a very, you know, disheartening experience. you know, there was casualties laying on the ground outside. i actual...

Being in afghanistan or being in iraq, anybody who has been over there and experienced ieds first-hand and close up, to think somebody would do something so abhorrent here, especially in a race like marathon. the timing was just horrible when you think about it. the majority of people that were coming through at that time of the boston marathon had worked to raise hundreds of thousands, if not millions of dollars, for charities and good causes. those were the runners that were coming through at ...

Garden at 11:00 a.m. this isnt something, carol, that is going to be enacted. but its really his now official opening salvo in a new round of discussions about deficit reduction that he will be having with republicans. his message, deficit reduction is important, but not at the expense of investing in things like education, job training, infrastructure, some of the new areas of spending in this new budget. one thing in there, though, that is getting a lot of headlines, chain cpi. you say what is...

I think brit hume was right earlier. boehner has a weak hand. the fact he has a weak hand is causing something close to a panic among the republican rank and file. >> bret: thank you for that. >> youre welcome. i think that you are seeing republicans freak out a little bit. little bit too prematurely. the ironic thing in some ways it might strengthen boehners hand in negotiations. if he can go in and say they are going to fire me if i do what you are asking. i cant do that. one thing that barack...

We can talk and everybody can talk all day long. until you get 218 in the house. until you get numbers in the senate, you are nowhere. you have to put the caucus numbers together. >> the only way to possibly get the numbers in the house by hiking rates, lets say to 37, would be if you got something substantial and real on entitlements. if you are going to beat promise -- >> where is the signal and light at the end of the tunnel that is going to happen? no one said one thing -- >> obama side? >> ...

This idea that obama wants to go over the cliff more than the republicans is true. but its true he doesnt want to go over the cliff. it would be -- charles is right about this. it would poison his term, much the way the stimulus. i would mean hammer and tongs, partisan welfare for four years. not what he wants to do. he has an ambitious agenda. >> bret: we are talking probably under a week. that is about it. we just did the piece. because of legislative time needed to put something together befo...

Medicare, right? >> bret: cost of living index on social security? >> correct. >> most democrats say take it off the table. >> not just social security. look at the other government entitlement programs that people are beneficiaries from. let me suggest to charles that in fact if there is no vote on anything. the rates expire for everyone. republicans get blamed for bumping up taxes on everybody. >> bret: for how long? how long do they get blamed? >> how do i know? im telling you it damages the ...

They hire fewer workers and its a downward spiral. >> some republicans are more hopeful of a deal andialing the party to give the president tax hike hikes in exchange for leverage on entitlement cut. >> the focus shifts to entitlement. maybe it puts us in a place where we can do something that saved the nation. >> other key republicans insist negotiators are far from a deal. the president wont take on his party about spending. >> hes afraid to go to a progressive meeting and say if we dont adjus...

Vote in house but he was speaking on "fox news sunday." >> once you give him the rate on the top 2% its lesser tax increase than what he has been talking about. the focus then shifts to entitlements and maybe that puts us in a place where we actually can do something that really saves this nation. so that is, there is a growing body. it actually am beginning to believe that is the best route for to us take. to again, shift focus where it needs to be. which is on entitlements. >> bret: juan? >> w...
