" you keep up at me Obama extremely busy starting in Denver this Tuesday signing this bill. -- was in Phoenix on Wednesday were nearly half of all real estate transactions are foreclosures to unveil his plan to shore up the housing market. On Thursday the president made his first trip abroad to Canada to meet with Prime Minister Stephen Harper. Then on Friday back to Washington addressing 85 mayors from across the country on his American recovery and reinvestment act. -- right he was extremely busy here's my question. To be people we've assembled here today for Fox News let's get to let me start with you you wouldn't press the beltway press. To get out of town and avoid all those tough questions he may -- and I think it's a good idea I think that a lot of the problem with with this country's sometimes is the way the media covers things and I think he's he's perfectly within his rights to go. Out and travel around the country and talk directly to American people and even leave the country I mean he didn't go that far but. You know I think that I think he probably has he doesn't really have a great relationship with the media as much as people think they keep that oh he loved them."

" Look at that come I don't think I gotta get out and yeah confident that it doesn't like the media I -- me doesn't like the media but they love them anyway. I'm -- Dan Gainer of the business and media institute which is part of the media research center for the study of the MSM mainstream media coverage of the stimulus package and they found. By a two to one ratio it was favorable so I agree Obama doesn't like them. I don't know understand why he doesn't."

" I thought he got hammered on -- in this package so I'm sorry disagree with -- hammered in what way I study is very negative thought he was being criticized a lot I think that it was. You know -- and a -- that I didn't think there was a lot of criticism of Atlanta but I couldn't because the Nina."

" Because an effort it's two thirds of it was actually spending change you know I think that there isn't me that inside the beltway that they want to avoid which is people out there in the country you don't says they wanted. Bipartisanship post partisanship whether that will work we remains to be seen that the pundits declared. What three weeks again that was over he screwed up the -- said he should have reached out to the right. The Wright said they're going to stand against and you why it's a month in the American people. I think do you have a different opinion he's bright to get out and try to talk to them I I have been saying for weeks I don't think he likes mixing it up with reporters I really don't have."

" That the American people understand these things better than the inside the beltway people. And yet nobody is more attuned to what people are thinking the members of congress they pull every day. If anybody understands this then the members of congress do otherwise they wouldn't be doing this enormous stimulus back."

" What do you make of Bill Clinton's comments this past week. With regard to Obama's plans and how he -- argued in -- eight as president in his first thirty days but -- said hey."
