And Neil should NOT have apologized. She was the rude one.

Asking a lib Democrat what spending they would like to cut is like asking Dracula if he would like a side of garlic with his breakfast. These people only speak talking-points, and there is no upper-level brain activity going on. It was a waste of time, and Neil should have known better.

What this woman is doing in our House is anybody´s guess. She couldn´t plan a third-grade birthday party. Total waste of good bandwidth.

If she tries to come off as a victim of a white man´s anger at her ignorance, I wouldn´t be surprised. If you can´t carry the toolbox, walk off the job!

I saw it live and Neil was simply trying to get a simple answer. Dems cannot do that - it´s all about dialogue or forming committees and wasting time and our money - ENOUGH!

Totally agree with #3 - but her fingernails looked fantastic, don´t you think?

/sarc

If memory serves me right, she was mixed up here in Texas with some money that was shifted improperly to a relative for college (or something along those lines). In my book she is on par with Sheila Jackson Lee (who thinks we landed on Mars). Sheesh...

I watched it and Neil Cavuto bent over backwards to be "respectful" to the unintelligible "congresswoman" from Texas. Ms. Johnson proved once again in front of an audience that there is no cure for stupid. And she is just ONE of the many, many illiterates who are now running this Country in Congress. Scary indeed.

Everybody just say what you´re dancing around: Black, female congresswoman...idiot.

This woman isn´t smart enough to operate an 8 sq. foot stall in Kingston´s straw market.

EB and Jackson Lee--- two peas in. tX pod

#5, there is a scholarship program run through the congressional black caucus. The purpose of the program is to give college scholarships to (black) students from each black congressman´s congressional district. The money is sent directly to the student, thus keeping it out of the college financial aid package. (think of icing on the cake)
This E.B. Johnson was one of the congresscritters who gave the money to relatives (against the rules) who didn´t even live in her congressional district. (also against the rules)
I expect nothing of integrity or decency of any member of the black caucus. And I believe Congressman Scott of S.C. is not a member, although he is black, and a republican.
The voting rights act of 1965 has created the mess we see surrounding black members of the House of Representatives.
But again, since they are ´sticking it to the Man´ they will continue to get reelected.
There are few exceptions, the most notable being Carolyn Cheeks Kilpatrick, mother of the former mayor of Detroit, Kwame Kilpatrick. (Kwame is currently under federal indictment for political corruption, and Carolyn lost in a democratic primary not long ago. Such an event is rare, however.)

I used to live in this criminal´s Congressional district. It was common knowledge that if you were white, don´t even bother calling her office for help, information, etc.

What a racist.

Note to Neil and the other Fox hosts(except for Shep, who I do not watch, ever):
Please stop putting these idiots on TV. We already know they are fools and you are wasting valuable air time.
You should have guests from whom we might learn something useful(e.g. Tom Sowell, Walter Williams, Art Laffer).
We don´t need anymore ´´food fight´´ TV.

Ugh, just reading that mealy mouthed apology made me sick.

An addition to #12´s response: while I don´t have sat. or cable TV so I can´t watch Fox, it is my understanding that Fox has the largest viewership amongst its cohorts. Maybe it´s time for Fox to stop worrying about the balanced part of its motto and go full bore truth and conservatism for a few months, at least. It might just enlighten enough viewers to really make a difference.

She only wanted to talk about "revenues". When do we call it what it really is? Its a TAX! This euphamism ranks right up there with abortion being called a "choice", 9/11 being called a "Man made disaster" and wars in the Middle East being called "Overseas contingency operations"! The Democrats not only can´t speak the truth, they can´t call it by it´s correct name.

I saw Greta talking to one of the michigan dem legislators about the vote for right to work. Greta kept asking the woman what her views where on allowing individuals the choice of whether or not to join and fund a union. Once again, no sign of intelligence on the left, just emotion. Modern women are not impressing me with their intellect. They just seem to be a bunch of over-emotional people sent out by their party, with talking points to spew.

So the folks that wrote ´The Bell Curve´ were right.Who would have thunk it?

Here´s a specific cut: 15 percent across the board until the deficit is gone. Why don´t the Repubs take this tack? What could be fairer, simpler, quicker (time is of the essence) or smarter? How does any sane person argue against a small percentage cut on all depts until balance is achieved?

The American public needs to take a good look and listen to the mindless sort of leadership? their votes have produced. Incapable of speaking the truth and apparently incapable of polititalk, this woman should have reviewed her White House Talking Points before agreeing to a TV interview.
..... It is doubtless that the administration will allow her to speak publicly again.

I propose a 100% tax rate, no deductions on democrats.

If you are or were a registered democrat in the last 4 years you simply owe everything you make. Then the government can take care of you.

You can´t fix stupid. What I saw yesterday was this woman trying to state that in order to cut spending, you had to raise tax´s on the rich. I was flabbergasted. She gave the impression that your income is government owned.

Neil interrupts everyone. Can´t watch him anymore. Like O´Reilly and Hannity he is in love with his own voice. Is Rep. Johnson an ignoramous? Yes. And Neil is a soft, pseudo-conservative, self-important blow-hard. FOX has really soured on a lot of us.

I saw an interview with the union "media communications" person and it was sad that she was so dumb (white young woman). The only question that I wanted answered was "who are you related to that got you this job?" That is how unions work - they try to keep a closed shop all right - family members only need apply!

Read some of the comments in the Politico ´Comments´ section. {SIGH}.....there are plenty more out there, just like E.B. Johnson.

I have long hoped that interviewers on Fox would cut off these talking point readers and keep them on point.

Good for Neil. And hold the apology. She was rude. It is YOUR program.

This poor misguided soul is why our nation is rapidly becoming a void, a place where nothing can happen because none of these elected people can express themselves so they can be understood. In a representative form of government you must have people who can representsent. All these ones do is babble some pre-determined foolishness that they don´t even understand. God help us!!!

Maxine Waters was on CNBC yesterday. Ignorance and stupidity beyond description, totally incapable of embarrassment. Both of them.

The headline to this article is mis-leading. I believe the host has no control when it´s commercial time. Why do people apologize when they are not in the wrong? Disgusting!!!

Ted in Right to Work Michigan!

Eddie doesn´t seem to have a thought of her own. Obama doesn´t want to cut spending, so neither does Eddie. Eddie want to keep it simple.

FOX gives to much credence to liberal liars that they invite on their shows. Give me a sincere liberal who really cares about the country first, if you can find one. But, don´t have these politically secure frauds that keep their people down through their lies. The question remains, about FOX´s fair and balanced approach. as to whether it is at all possible to be fair and balanced and still honest since it is difficult to find an honest liberal to debate.

I doubt the woman had anything cogent to say, but she was correct that Cavuto would not keep his yap shut long enough to let her make a fool of herself. His lack of common curtesy annoys to point of covering up any points he could make. I saw the interview live and wanted to scream. Not at the fool Congresswoman, but at Cavuto. Letting her own words seal her failures is much better than Cavuto telling us the obvious, plus it is the ultimate disrespect for his audience to not understand they are capable of recognizing a losing argument from the words of the presenters alone.
