Noah Feldman with Laura Ingraham

Laura Ingraham hosted Noah Feldman, "The Cool War".

Feldman said China and the US have a competitive relationship in which China holds 8% of our debt and yet needs us to sell goods to.  

Feldman said that the US hasn't done a good job on human rights under President Obama. He feels we should remind other nations about the differences between the values of the two nations.

Feldman said to get leverage with China is to focus on what China needs and use that to get our aims.  Feldman said that China will do business with us but by no means does this ensure they will adopt our values.    

Pat Buchanan with Laura Ingraham

Laura Ingraham hosted Pat Buchanan. 

Ingraham and Buchaan cited the unholy alliance of the SEIU, big business and the Democratic Party that has pressured the Republicans into the immigration bill.  Both said it will do nothing for the GOP and that alleged conservatives such as Senators Rubio and Ayotte are sellouts. They also noted Speaker Boehner predicts a bill by year's end.  They pointed out how wages and jobs will be depressed for all Americans. 

Buchanan said there will be a fierce battle at the bottom of the wage ladder and that this immigration bill will help big business.  Ingraham noted that a quarter of Hispanics live in poverty and that they heavily favor big government as favored by the Democrats.

Bushanan isn't sure if the immigration bill will pass and that it won't help the GOP.  He noted that the GOP has been scared into this bill.  

Buchanan wasn't surprised by the NSA snoop revelations and that he isn't that bothered by it, although Ingraham is.

Monday Stock Surge Based On "Political Intelligence" On Shift in Obamacare Policy

Monday's sharp stock market rise was due in large part to "political intelligence", a practice under the spotlight on Thursday.

The last-minute action, which drove the shares sharply higher before the close of trading, is throwing a spotlight on the controversial "political intelligence" industry, the subject of a report due Thursday by the investigative arm of Congress.

The instigator for Monday's rally was a report from a Washington-based investment-research firm that often ferrets out policy news and analysis for investors, according to industry experts and market data from that afternoon. About 15 minutes before markets closed, the firm correctly predicted the Obama administration would reverse course on big spending cuts that would have hit health insurers.

Carlson said the story of Senator Bob Menendez has gotten strange.  He claims he is too cheap to offer bribes for information and that the Daily Caller accounts are true.

Carlson said Republicans are energized by the gun control issue and this brings them to the polls.  He said none of the solutions would have prevented the recent mass shootings.  He said that all Americans should be under the same gun rules, including elites security details.

Bob Weidemer with Laura Ingraham

Laura Ingraham hosted Bob Weidemer, author of "Aftershock". 

Weidemer suggested people look back on Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke's uneven predictions on the economy before buying what he has to say.  He cautioned that massive money printing is fueling the economic recovery.  He said we are tripling our money supply which helps the economy initially.  He said inflation could take years for the US but said it could come faster.  He thinks David Stockman is correct in stating that the bank bailouts were a huge mistake and that we are creating two bubbles: the dollar and government debt. 

Weidemer said Paul Krugman isn't recognizing the magnitude of the borrowing the US has undertaken which is a big mistake.  

Weidemer is a conservative investor in gold with less volatility than stocks, some bonds and stocks.
