CNN's Wolf Blitzer talks to Democratic Rep. Chris Van Hollen, who defends the house passage of a $26 billion jobs bill.

1. Wolf says,

,"Let's listen to what Boner says."

We get this every day. Great emphasis is placed on the words of the Republicans. What they say is repeated over and over as if their words carry great weight. And this when their explanation for the world is ridiculous. Up is down and down is up.

2. The GDP of the US

is $14 trillion. Federal spending as a percentage of GDP averages about 20% year to year. The only question is how the government allocates its percentage of GDP. The government isn't broke ...the political system is.
