It's Sunday Monday which means the Blake even mores are in town and Brad -- Clinton.

Actually that's -- Blake -- -- Brad Lakeland area is sitting next to him.

Bradlee -- he's dead in the studio belongs which is directory for us Brad good to have you.

Former deputy assistant of course to president George W.

Bush and Scott lake and he did see earlier.

Liberal comedian don't columns got his hit two nice happy to -- that it boxing gloves sir I just behind me here if needed -- -- coming out on the campaign trail Brad.

Pretty tough have the Obama campaign up putting out on the Mitt Romney's wrinkled with Bain Capital destroying jobs destroying lives.

Is essentially the theme of that.

Good.

Cut some food sort of -- -- busy gonna affect voters who think they do.

I don't think so this this is totally fictitious as matter of fact the Washington Post which is not one of our great conservative.

Papers in America.

Gave this type of reporting before three point -- -- which I believe is their highest.

Debunk.

It it has been does that how they rate it had to say they don't they get it and -- and -- got -- of so.

Reluctant it is going to be debunked but if you don't have a record to stand on what do you do you divert attention to somebody else but.

One thing is for sure the Romney campaign is all over this.

They debunked it before they're gonna do it again they're using the Washington Post.

A more forces to do it because these allegations -- regarding jobs regarding debt.

Most of it did not happen under Romney's watch and in fact there's tremendous.

Amount.

Material where workers have complemented name.

When Romney was -- paying for saving jobs.

It's totally fictitious stuff.

It's alleged love Mitt Romney has made -- cornerstone of his campaign that he has worked in business.

He knows business -- economy he can fix the economy and let me just say that as -- -- Obama supporter I know probably somebody working private equity Mitt Romney is an honorable person has worked hard deserves every penny.

He got his considerable fortune that's not the issue that he is saying.

I worked in private equity line editor on the economy has no logic to that you'll -- And economics at credit with those -- -- known people private equity and said business but that's -- -- only business acumen.

-- -- That's what they're dressing in the commercial the -- believe it is.

Out to make profits for being cattle and -- which is fine it's not a public service not trying to create jobs or help people and in this particular bad.

Some companies -- are forced into bankruptcy hundreds relayed ought not everyone else on our.

-- leadership so there's there's either you're gonna tell the truth or you're not.

But this president the community organizer we elected as our president has no business acumen at all he promised things he couldn't deliver he said he -- the 800 billion dollar stimulus was passed.

National unemployment we're not exceed 8% hasn't been under 8%.

And when you take into account people stop looking for work unemployed it's double that the inner cities to support in the most.

Are double the national average you take into account debt he's amassed more -- and every president.

Who's come before him on your I wish we had quite a life that we have.

Now that it if pails in comparison not really actually have a penny -- compared to welcome two more guys that you know them and what you and yours which are being fought now the same wars.

Are being fought by this president.

The president who said withdrawal everything has not follow that strategy is following a strategy in Iraq he's followed the bush strategy.

Taking troops out.

But that is really the fact the fact of the matter is that it wasn't for bad news Obama would have any news so he can't talk of actual record demonize the other bit.

-- brought -- case it's it's certainly it seemed it would appear at least to be playing more into.

Romney's strengths to be focusing on the economy but the president really had any judge -- -- the voters are focused on in the we can still -- gay marriage we -- total -- socialist he's.

This is an election's going to be -- only collapse.

But take -- look.

We all agree that the economy is not president -- is not where we wanted to be but the question is what is Mitt Romney's alternative what is his years of business.

Experience usually don't actually it doesn't have argued the alternative about it -- OS I just got what would an outlet to your journalist asked that I -- you would Donovan but.

What -- Mitt Romney had done if -- was elected four years ago what they've done differently and to what the economy how would have made us better off to the media from talking you don't.

Spend more than you take it you can't do it -- -- household budget he can't do -- government.

And what the difference what Romney would have done.

Is Ronnie -- -- unleash the creativity and ingenuity of the people not the government it's not the government taking more from the people and in the government deciding where it goes.

It's not demonizing the wealthy.

Who create jobs.

What it is what it does is you unleash the creativity of the American people by giving them more power giving them more control and your body you like President Clinton.

Yes -- you know President Clinton sent.

Not sure any other -- the trillion dollars.

Sitting on the sidelines because people don't have the confidence in the marketplace they don't know what their tax liabilities would be so there's an out there waiting it out the truth is that tax rates -- exactly and houses were under President Bush so why isn't this -- -- -- -- -- it's the Obama.

-- -- -- If he did exactly why.
