‘Shut Up!’ Neil Cavuto and Dem Rep. Battle it Out in Must See Interview
The Blaze ^ | 12/13/12 | Becket Adams

Posted on 12/13/2012 9:10:01 PM PST by Mozilla

While discussing the looming “fiscal cliff” on Thursday, Fox News’ Neil Cavuto and Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson (D-Texas) had a rather unpleasant exchange of words:

Cavuto repeatedly pressed Rep. Johnson for specifics on what Democrats would be willing to cut as part of a budget agreement. For her part, the Texas congresswoman insisted on focusing on “revenue generation.”

“No, you told me things you’d do to raise taxes. That’s what you told me. Credits, allowances, that sort of stuff. That’s what you told me,” Cavuto said.

“You’ve got to talk about revenue generation,” the congresswoman replied.

“I know that, but it’s 100 percent of what you’re talking about, congresswoman,” said Cavuto.

“It is not 100 percent of what I’m talking about. If you’d shut up for just a second, I would try,” she responded.

Cavuto shot back: “You got to tell me one thing you’d cut. I beg you congresswoman, one thing you would say, I would cut this. What would it be?”

Rep. Johnson thought for a moment and responded: “You.”

A pause.

“You don’t know, do you?” asked Cavuto.

I got rid of cable a couple of years ago. Cavuto is one of the very few things I miss.

That proves it! Cavuto is a racist! Surely I don’t have to put “sarc” on here.

“rather unpleasant exchange of words:”

it wasn’t an unpleasant “exchange.” The ‘unpleasant’ was entirely one-sided.

Eddie Bernice Johnson, another CBC lunatic that we subsidize.

Most members of the CBC contribute to the stereotype of black people being stupid. Same for Al Sharpton.

This one is as smart as the one who wondered about the flag the astronauts planted on Mars.

Saw that exchange today and thought Neil did what should be done when these Dems wont answer a simple question. Cut them off and go to a break. Just like Neil did!

Johnson got in over her Eddie head. Well, when she gets up in the morning she is in over her head so I guess it doesn’t matter.

As ‘sensitive’ as we have become, this could almost be construed a threat.
Bet your bippy if the situation was reversed someone would point out that Neil threatened her (She is to dumb to figure it out herself).

We got this idiot, the aforementioned clown that wants to see the flag the Astronauts planted on Mars, the complete fool that opined Guam would tip over because of to many Marines on it, the other idiot that was rambling about the slaves being thrown overboard and the sharks, 200 yrs later, still patrolled looking for humans - Of course it took a R Limbaugh to point out that according to his figures the numbers came out like the voting in certain precincts with a +100% turnout ALL for the ‘one’, 57 states, throw in joebamabiden and it is no wonder they think we are all racists.

Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson (D-Texas) embodies the Napoleonic adage, “In politics stupidity is not a handicap.”

Hard to imagine that anybody vote for Eddie. But these are the people the loony left is electing. I can’t even believe she made it through High School.

“Hard to imagine that anybody vote for Eddie.”

You mean anybody with an IQ above room temperature.

Watched it live and it was classic. Neil destroyed her and showed her for what she is. A clown.
