The arbitrary across the board spending cuts included in the sequester, that we need more targeted spending cuts and more precision like in the spending cuts we make. that to me should be a basis for agreement. i talk to republicans and democrats who both agree. it might be harder to agree on spending levels and what we cut and spend more money on but i don t think anybody is happy with the across the board spending cuts in the sequester that we agreed to, by the way, the republican number, even though we oppose it to get past the government being closed. marsha, sounds reasonable to me. well, in the president s words, those sequester levels would be settled to law and those would be numbers that we would agree to. now what we have to do is look at that ten-year window, or even the one-year window that a ....

Democrats think it should be. so when you hear this negotiation that democrats aren t compromising, we re compromising so much we re willing to reopen the government at funding levels that reflect republican wishes, don t at all reflect our wishes. and, gene, as recently as september 6th, house minority leader eric cantor echoed the president s sentiments saying the funding bill at the current sequester levels would be a victory for republicans, and in a memo he wrote this. the president would be endorsing a level of spending that wipes away all the increases he and congressional democrats made while they were in charge and returns us to a pre-2008 level of discretionary spending. isn t that negotiating, to an extent? well, it would seem to me. on a fair level? look, the logical thing would be for republicans to declare victory and end the war, right? but they re not ready to do that. ....

That about the fight over health care. what they want to do and get back to taking some steps that will reduce government spending and claim some success there which they have, already achieved to some extent. discretionary domestic spending will be lower for two straight years. that is the first time since the korean war since that happened. they can continue on that path if they get focus back on spending. jenna what about entitlements though? that has gone up still? that a good point. that is where a deal to be made. in the short run, the sequester levels of spending get tougher. both parties have problems with that. democrats think domestic spending is too loy. republicans are worried defense take as giant hit when new sequester levels take effect. in between those two things there is probably a deal to be done where both sides give a little bit on that. one of the things the republicans can ask for in return for higher domestic spending is to put back on the table entitlement re ....

well, you know, we ll see how long. mi i mean, i think once you push up against the debt limit it becomes more problematic. october 17th. next week. i think that s when you re going to see more, you know, more pressure on him to do something. but i think that one of the issues, you go back to 2011, is that what happened there was that we ended up with the sequester, which right now is what democrats are arguing is a concession that they re giving to republicans and saying just pass the c.r. at the sequester levels. so i think one of the problems is that democrats are making two arguments that are cutting against each other. on the one hand, they re saying just pass a clean c.r. and we ll negotiate with you when the reason that they have the c.r. at that level in the first place is that they held out and took things to the brink on the debt limit in 2011. that s the only way that ....

The debt ceiling is another matter. people don t like to see the debt ceiling raised. it has to be raised eventually or there would be real trouble. people don t like it. the position republicans are taking is we need to negotiate some spending constraints in order to get the debt limit increased is a reasonable one and a much better standing with the public on that then they are the shutdown. martha: that is exactly what they did, the rein in spending to a certain extent allowing them to go back to their constituents and say we got a little bit of what we wanted out of that negotiation. the white house and the democrats are saying we negotiate on the debt ceiling issue because we are allowing the sequester levels to stay in place, so that s it. there s no negotiation beyond where we already are in terms of spending levels. the sequester levels of spending are the levels, the existing levels we had so to say that is a concession of some kind is a stretch as you might put it. ....
