protect those children in the bus at the incident on tuesday evening. if you look, you can see, there are 300 seats live, reserved for family and friends and also school officials. but i want to talk a little bit about how the community has been handling it. since woe have gotten on the ground, we had a number of canle vigils every night. people banding together, praying for the boy s safe return special mourning the fact they have lost one of their own. on cam remarks i want to give you a personal look. we are seeing the ribbons pop up, the plaque symbolizing the slain bus driver and the blue and the red are the boy s school colors. in front of his elementary school, we are seeing the ribbons placed all over. as the day continue, it is a somber day and at 2:00 p.m., we examine the funeral to begin. thank you very much. the hostage situation started on tuesday when the suspect allegedly killed a school bus driver and abducted the five-year-old and took him into the undergro

bret: this is a fox news alert. you are looking live at capitol hill. the dome light is on because congress is in session. and on the house floor they are now debating the senate passed ad legislation that passed 88 - 89-8 early this morning that deals with the effort to stop the fiscal cliff implications. the increasing of taxes and the sequester, the across-the-board tax cuts that would affect both the pentagon and domestic programs. joining me now with an update, a re-set, if you will, chief congressional correspondent mike emanuel. mike? bret, good evening, once again. it has been an interesting day up here on capitol hill after that wide bipartisan vote in the united states senate we instantly heard grumblings this morning from house republicans who said they wanted to take time to read the bill. after they read the bill they did not like what they saw. they said where are the spending cuts. raise taxes $41 for are every dollar or so that we are going to save money.

our ambassador was murdered but within hours it changed. geraldo rivera will tell us why. i m dreaming of a white president just like the ones we always had bill: has singer randy newman lost his mind? two white guys, gutfeld and mcgirk will have some thoughts. caution. you are about to enter the no spin zone. the factor begins right now. i m bill o reilly. thanks for watching us tonight. are american voters in a fog? that is the subject of this evening s talking points memo. a new fox news poll contains surprising data from the key swing states of florida, ohio and virginia. voter there s apparently believe the economic policies of barack obama have helped more than hurt the economy. that is simply stunning. unemployment remains above 8%. wages down big. national debt $16 trillion. and the annual deficit is now well over $1 trillion a year. and likely voters think president obama s economic policies are helping? again, inexplicable. i had a conversation with laura ingr
