Host we have been talking with sam goldfarb from cq roll call. Thank you very much. Explores the history and literary culture of all money of albany. Tonight on cspan, a Senate Debate on the fiscal cliff. Shaun donovan discusses it. Harry reid and Mitch Mcconnell when backandforth on fiscal cliff issues and a proposal to raise the debt ceiling. Here is part of their exchange. Yesterday afternoon, i came to the floor and offered president obamas proposal on the fiscal cliff to show that neither he nor democrats in congress are acting in good faith in these negotiations. With just a few weeks ago before a potentially entirely avoidable blow to the economy, the president proposed a plan the members of his own party will even vote for. He is not interested in a balanced agreement, not particularly interested in avoiding the fiscal cliff, and clearly not interested at all in cutting any spending. With the president is really in, as we learned just yesterday, is getting as much taxpayer mone
I guess i dont like it a whole lot. What would we find i sound just like my dad. There are great people out there, i know it. And i dont mean to condemn it but i think its passed me by a little bit. I still have a wonderful career and a beautiful audience that i really love but the spotlight is elsewhere now and im a known quantity now. And thats fine with me to play out this hand. But i dont pay a whole lot of attention to i never did listen much to the roofment when i was a kid i did. I dont listen to music much.

We will be going to that as soon as that hearing begins. I want to show you this article in the New York Times took. President obama plans to ask congress for about 50 billion for emergency funds to help rebuild the states the were ravaged by hurricane sandy. Regional leaders complained wednesday it was not enough.

Authors who have a very cool index of economic uncertainty. It is a very innovative paper. They estimated that the debt limit struggle probably subtracted about 1. 5 from gdp growth during that summer when it was happening egos of the uncertainty and inactivity that was caused by levels of uncertainty. Each time we go through that, there are consequences.
