Republican Alan Simpson rips the GOP

Former Senator Alan Simpson (R-Wyo.) ripped the current Republican Party for its failure to compromise. Simpson along with lawyer Erskine Bowles developed a plan to reduce the deficit in 2010. It called for spending cuts and repealing tax credits primarily on the wealthy. But today's Republican Party is so right-wing that they will protect the rich from tax costs at the expense of the welfare of the nation. He appeared on Fareed Zakira's CNN program
to air his views. Below is the video of his comments.
