Republican vice president of -- Paul Ryan blasting -- Obama's foreign policy in a blistering speech congressman Ryan comparing the recent anti American violence in the mideast.

To the 1979 attack and the US embassy in hostage crisis in Iran.

And here's where he gets very sharp he says President Obama as foreign policy is to blame RNC chair -- Davis joins us -- -- -- -- Okay well he's right.

I mean -- you look at Barack Obama not not only do make a whole host of promises in this country did it didn't fulfill remember back in 2007.

It was Barack Obama who made the sales pitch too good to our country in the world that because of his background.

And living in Indonesia.

And a Muslim country.

That he was going to bring a special type of diplomacy.

To northern African and Middle East.

And our seeing the results of -- about not he he's the guy that -- that said that Mitt Romney.

Was shooting first and -- later when Mitch -- criticized.

The fact that Barack Obama had -- walking back the statements made from an embassy in Egypt now.

-- enemy it is fixated on asking questions about that but they should ask questions of Barack Obama's that.

Why would you as president -- United States have to walking back comments of your own embassy.

In Egypt in so.

It is akin to Jimmy Carter of 1979.

And it's a -- and do it because there is a lack.

Of leadership.

In the White House he has not been able to take control of any of these situations going on -- Jimenez to -- any questions one is there's been some criticism of the -- the Ryan campaign that they need some sort of plan like your economy.

Sexually combined out of the fact that present -- up eight points in Ohio on a recent poll Washington Post and he's up four points in Florida so.

-- galaxy a two part question -- -- the first one.

The idea that there's no specific plan is is -- quarterly.

Oh yes and and I gotta tell it it's pretty supplement -- Iran plan to save this country that they can be broken on in the five quick points number one.

And Obama care number two.

Reduce spending and as it relates to GDP so in other words a cost 25 cents on the dollar to run the federal government's huge.

Immediately start reducing that 25 cents on on the dollar on the twining.

Reduce small business taxes from 35%.

Down -- 25%.

Cut income taxes across the board by 20%.

And get going on the keystone pipeline and energy from the Atlantic Ocean all the way -- Alaska.

Five simple points specific.

And by the way he put Paul Ryan and the ticket which which we which.

We're the ones as a Republican Party and Paul -- that passed.

A budget in this country that this president.

Hasn't even bother doing that and over three years so it's gonna take time but doesn't it it's not easy to defeat incumbent.

But I believe that if we keep talking about these issues and give this country a choice.

Between two futures.

I think over time for debates two jobs reports coming out I think we're going to be able to make an effective case.

-- -- -- -- -- -- a focus a lot of let me go to not as you get both -- -- go to the other questions Sunday in the country -- and since you -- an owner of the agreement.

-- it's only fair you really the whole list of people I'm your thoughts about the about the game last why -- The game -- Paul Ryan last night and -- and we're in Cincinnati.

And I mean it was just suit it's it there was such a joke.

That it's usually does it anger from losing a close game or something bad happens in the end you know we all -- big sports -- you get that.

-- in your stomach -- this was different this is just an outrage.

I think he's studied the fact that day I don't know did you ever shares that well -- and I love then I love the Packers.

I loved sports defending NFL footballs and a great American pastime doesn't bring a lot of us together which I think you alluded to before.

But it's tough to lose -- -- -- to lose not not just some blown call.

It was bad it was it it was a totally bogus agreed on what happened on the ground there in Seattle.

And an NFL -- it.

I think to sports fans and -- owners and people are spending a lot of money.

To -- at these games in the support the NFL needed just to make their kids to get this thing straight.

But countries upset about it tech head and I rise -- much for joining us put it on the last thing I.
