Stephanie jim, dont be droopy, lots of things are coming here for production caller yeah. Stephanie what is the company that Just Announced caller i had another comment too. Stephanie yeah, go ahead. Caller the mormon money going into you know, trying to prevent people from getting married. I just want republicans to think of all of the kids of gay people, think of their familiar list as normal and they need respect, and talk about if you dont want though government controlling your life, its nobodys business to little kids who have gay parents. Thats their parents. Stephanie yeah. There are two people who have raised four kids together. And when you see them together you think who could possibly not want this family to be a family. Caller they spend so much time reassuring their kids. Life is fair and this is equality, if you want equality you teach your kid that and then it really for the child of that comes from a family like that, when they hear other people put it down they are confused. They just see it as not accepting. But mormons are brainwashed into giving their money to fight stuff like that. If they dont want government in their lives they should to each his own. Snee thank you. All right. Thank you. Okay. [ inaudible ] [ laughter ] where our Union Soldiers [ inaudible ] stephanie wow, wee chris you are entitled to make seven or eight more mistakes now. Thats from the ladys International Garment workers union. Stephanie yeah, i remember that. The president railed against right to work laws that republicans are trying to pass in michigan arguing they are a race to the bottom. Right to work for peanuts. Stephanie thats right. What we shouldnt be doing is trying to take away rights for better working conditions. Everything state that has these laws, everything is worse. Because nobody has any money to buy anything. Stephanie thank you. Mickey, you are on the Stephanie Miller show. Caller i have a couple of questions, when a politician leaves office, whether they are voted out or retire. What kind of package do they get when they leave . And also why can the congress and senate can vote on their own pay increases but get give only a minimum wage to the American People . Why dont we get to vote on that . Why dont the American People get to vote on whether they get increase in wages. Stephanie yeah, and some of the rightwing politicians dont even want a minimum wage. I wont pay it stephanie exactly. Lets go to richard in houston. Caller hey, stephanie. First time caller here and i love your show. Why do everybody seem so surprised when the rightwingers keep pulling these stunts . Stephanie yeah. Caller it kills me when i see people lined up in the streets, rain and snowing, and they are protesting away these people do not care for us why have we started voting these people into office. Stephanie yeah. Caller i get so mad seeing this ona daily basis. Stephanie thats the thing boehner is claiming a mandate for the house a million more people voted for democrats even for the house. Its because of redistricting, and he knows that. Our caller is right. Really did people vote to have them do the same thing other again. Yeah. Stephanie well talk to representative Jan Schakowsky about it next on the Stephanie Miller show. Event. Nobody knows disasters like comedians. Thats why for my upcoming benefit for victims of hurricane sandy, i booked the strongest, smartest comics i could find. My comedian friends and i will raise money to rebuild homes and lives one laugh at a time. So tune in next friday for my all star comedy special. Together we can get new yorkers back to yelling at strangers and ignoring our friends. You are even more beautiful to me now, because it is the real you. This is it isnt it . This is the real announcer Stephanie Miller. Yes. Stephanie oh, you dont want that. The president yesterday. Obama if congress lets middle class tax goes up economists will tell you that means people will spend nearly 200 billion less than they otherwise would spend. Consumer spending is going to go down. Stephanie if only we had someone we loved from congress to tell us where we are now. Oh, look its rocking congressman Jan Schakowsky. Good morning congresswoman. Hello stephanie. Stephanie its hard to tell what is going on. The headlines are neither side giving ground. The president just won his second landslide. What do they not get about that . Yeah, he is only the sixth president in history that has won consecutive elections with a real majority 51 . Stephanie yeah. No, were holding the cards, though, stephanie. This is okay. Stephanie right. Because this is not a sequel to the last time when they held us hostage and we had to give up more than we wanted to because we wanted to overt total disaster with the debt ceiling. This is a different situation, and the republicans, one by one, it seems are starting to wake up and realize that you know, this is a really bad platform for them. Lets go to the mat for the richest americans, and then lets cut medicare and well threaten to complete financial disaster over the debt ceiling. That is wildly unpopular in the country. Stephanie yep. Representative i want to get your take because obviously the white house has signaled and i understand the issues involved, but im wondering too why dont we just over its note really a cliff, right . Because obviously thats where our leverage is is these rates will go up anyway, and you can fix things in a couple of weeks with a new congress cant you . Yes, thats right. But it would be better not to, you know, create the situation of having all of these things a lot of things expire at the end of the year. I mean it would be much better if like sensible people we would sit down before a deadline and figure out how to do this, in an equitable, in an equitable way. It seems as if the republicans in their caucus in the house of representatives, are unable to be sensible, and john boehner more than anything, the numbers that he is looking at thats the numbers that it takes for him to keep his gavel. Stephanie yeah. They are biting at each other right now. I guess its like 17 votes and they could oust him and there are people wanting to do that because he is too weak kneed. I think thats the problem is the republicans are in disarray. Stephanie absolutely. And you are one of our progressive war records and what makes us nervous on our side is why are we talking about taking a rate that is less than 39 . Why are we talking about making concessions at thissing point . I dont know that the president is talk about medicare eligibility age. That would be a total disaster. Stephanie yeah. It would actually ending cost could end up costing us more to do that. Stephanie i agree. And certainly in terms of human health it would be really really a bad idea. Im going to spend my week talking to my democratic friends to make sure everybody really understands how bad it would be and how unnecessary it would be to raise the age of medicare eligibility. But i agree with you, i dont think we ought to settle for any number less than what it was under the clinton years. Stephanie thats right. That was the most prosperous time in the United States of america in recent history, and we dont need to do that. We dont want to start negotiating with ourselves here. But first we have to have a significant call from the republicans that they are serious. I love when they say, oh the president serious. Really . He put a very detailed proposal on the table. We are very serious about that. Stephanie i love how they are acting like they still have leverage in public. Like they are holding all of the cards here. None. They really dont have stephanie yeah. And the main card that they fail to hold is any support from the American People. Stephanie yeah. The vast number of americans say, yes, the wealthiest ought to pay more. Duh. They also do not cut medicare. These will even tea partiers, they dont want the benefits to be cut. Stephanie they are looking at the same poll you and i are that the republicans would take the vast majority of the blame. The polling couldnt be clearer. So where do they go from here. What i have heard is they are going to cave its just a question of when. I know were going to go another week. We were supposed to be out this week, so they extended it another week extended their own pain another week, really, so maybe they are they are trying to get there, but if they dont, then january 3rd or whatever thats when we are sworn in, then we can actually get this done. This is not going to be the apocalypse if we dont get it done by december 31st. I dont understand why we dont see that. Tom cole who is my favorite republican, and a sensible guy no, he really he really is a friend of mine stephanie right. Because he he gets it. He is a conservative republican but he is also very, very practical, and pretty close to john boehner, so i dont know if thats in part kind of a message that from that sector of the republican conference. Stephanie right. You are talking about a lot of the republicans that are sayings publicly we need to give in on the tax revenues. Yeah, tom cole said come on everybody agrees on this. Minimally we all agree that middle class up to 250,000 income ought to be taxed at this lower level. So, you know, lets go. Stephanie right. Right. I mean we were talking about this before we had you on. The one thing that makes me laugh is boehner claiming his own election mandate for a republican majority in the white house, when everyone understands redistricting at this point, dont they in oh, absolutely. This idea that this was a status quo election. Is he the only person that hasnt noticed im trying to end gloating. Stephanie i have made no such efforts, but you go ahead. In certain places [ dog barking ] oh, theres my dogs. They are gloating too. Those are my dogs gloating. Stephanie what kind of dogs and what are their names . Lucky and buddy. Stephanie oh thats so disney movie. And they are golden retrievers. Stephanie oh. Okay. Go ahead. Your point was what . My point was, i forgot. Stephanie lucky and buddy filibustered you. They are trying to minimize the fact that the president won the election that we made gains in the house; that the senate is more democratic, and that the American People are fed up with gridlock. They are fed up. Stephanie yeah, absolutely. And the white house obviously was defending keeping these talking private. Our interest is reaching an rag agreement and not trying to negotiate an agree through the media. I think that is right. The markets i dont know how sensible theyll be in we go to january 1st, but maybe that will be the kind of impetus that will bring the republicans to their senses. I its true however, obviously, if some Real Progress had been made i think that we might have heard Something Better or more explicit from the president that says were not reading out details of the conversation, but the lines of communication remain open. To me that means they really havent made any progress. So im glad that they are talking, but i you know, well see this week. I dont know. Stephanie it means boehner still has his number but if the president answers and he is talking, talking talking the president is like okay thank for calling. Stephanie representative you know one of my favorite memories of you, is you doing back spring down the street during the gay pride parade. Oh yeah. Stephanie are you nervous about doma and Marriage Equality . What do you think . Everyone is taking bet of which or both the Supreme Court will uphold. I think doma will not be the law of the land when the Supreme Court is is done. That was a a bad mistake at the time. But i have never seen i have to tell you, steph an issue move so quickly. The culture wars are over stephanie yeah. Our team won and the congress of the United States is unrepresentative of what the American People in general feel. I dont want to over state this. I know in some communities and even maybe in some states the majority may think may think otherwise, but the time is gone when nobody when anybody can think they dont know anybody gay; that theres no gay people in their family. Its just incredible. Stephanie rob reiner was on with us yesterday, and said this is it. We are at the Tipping Point of this civil rights battle of our generation. So well see. What do you think . Stephanie im very positive. We talked to chris perry and rob reiner yesterday, and they were both very optimistic so im going to go with that. Im going with you on that. Okay. Stephanie all right. Get your sneakers ready for next years parade. Okay. Stephanie Congress Women Jan Schakowsky thank you so much. Thank you, stephanie. [ applause ] stephanie love her.

[ world news tonight theme ] stephanie they held more negotiations yesterday, but neither side showed a willingness to give ground.

What stage are they at after the election bargaining depression, where are they . We need to let them get through that first. It always comes out the same it shows the americans would blame republicans if the country went over the cliff. Bob corker called for a quick deal. He said right now there is no question in my mind that the president has the slight upper hand. Slight . Stephanie uhhuh.

And curtis what would you expect on fox business channel [ sound effects ] stephanie okay. Sean hannity. Considering the significant consequences of falling off of the fiscal cliff you have would think the president would have some kind of an interest in finding a solution to the problem. However, it is now becoming increasingly obvious something is standing in the way. A reporter at the New York Times is admitting, well it may just be obamas arrogance. Stephanie oh [ applause ] stephanie arrogance what do you think he won an election or something . Stephanie yeah. Sheeesh. Stephanie dog whistle. Were you impersonating a dog whistle. Woo woo .

[ farting sounds ] stephanie bill oreilly. We are living in a world that is rapidly changing. Ruling of civility have diminished. Some examples. Supreme court is now going to hear the gay marriage issue. Some of those who support expanding the definition say those against it are homophobes. So you are a hater according to the haters. Stephanie okay. So he just negated his entire point by calling everybody who hates him a later. Stephanie right. Exactly. By the way and its Marriage Equality. [ bell chimes ] [ applause ] were never going to get him to say that. So dont hold your breath on that one. Stephanie just so make you say other like a monkey in a shearling coat. Okay. Matt barber faith and freedom radio show. Thanks for getting this. No problem. The bully on the program intimidates people into silence, fear, and avoiding the bully, and when the righteous individual depends himself and punch the bully in the mouth, the bully more likely than not has a glass jaw, falls down on the playground and everybody says oh. Thats the left. They try to push religious bigotry on everyone else. Stephanie wow, i did not see that coming. Okay. The secular left. [ applause ] they are the bullies. Right. Stephanie right. Okay then. Stephanie right. Thats just like those poles trying to defend themselves into the nazis.

Wheel of idiots stephanie fdc filings were just revealed and [ inaudible ] gave 500 to the obama victory fund. Oops. Stephanie he was an obama supporter as it turns out.

I dont know whether to knock you on your kisser or kiss you on your knocker. [ laughter ] stephanie it is the Stephanie Miller show. Thirtyfour minutes after the hour. Tbone is funny. Every time i bring similar something off of the printer, im like thank you angel. He is like the angel in the matt damon and ben affleck movie. Like an arc angel. I never saw it. Stephanie it is good. Becky in indianapolis. Hi, beck. Caller hey, second time i have gotten through. Stephanie the arc angel let you through. Caller i thank the arc angel. The caller earlier was talking about it was no big deal to get a 15 to 17 an hour job, i would love one of those. I was making 14 an hour, which was really good money back then. The next job i got was 11 an hour. Now the new job i have got, i get 12 an hour and i work third shift. The companys president got a 5 raise. And im scheduled to get a half of a percent raise. Stephanie yeah. It depends on where you live. When we talk about a certain cost of living it is just different in a lot of place, but i hear ya. [ world news tonight theme ] stephanie so we have been calling about the fiscal cliff claifen. The president yesterday. Obama i have said i will work with republicans on a plan for economic growth, job creation, and reducing our deficits, and that has some compromise between democrats and republicans. I understand theres a you know, people have a lot of different views. Im willing to compromise a little bit. Stephanie yeah. I worry about him talking about compromising. Stephanie i think he is doing the right thing, though. He is hitting the road Like Campaign style and taking and the polls are showing that it is working. Again, just like in the election, the American People largely with him would largely blame republicans if this happens. He is building his case. He said it will be a hit you cant afford to take. And if anything, jim, the president has toughened his demand in the last few days. I mean, it really that that i really think is true. Because we have never seen this breed of republicans before that have taken that hostage. It shouldnt be part of negotiations of anything. Its money we have already spent. Its like you getting your mastercard bill and say no, im not going to pay this unless you do this you dont get to negotiate. Yeah. And he said Social Security is a nonstarter stephanie Social Security doesnt add a cent to the deficit. And they are not going to get all of this done in the next two weeks, they should do what is important and make sure that taxes dont rise on 98 of us. So boner, they have to drop that talking point, because if i cant say it enough a million more people voted for democrats than the republicans, even for the house. So what is your point . Stephanie and yet the orange man will still be speaker. Representative Marsha Blackburn said he will be speaker. Eric cantor must have a bigger bitch face than usual this morning. Oh, come on. Really . Stephanie all right. The president. Obama that is something i wont compromise on because im not going to have a situation where any wealthiest among us including folks like me get to keep all of our tax breaks, and then were asking students to pay higher student loans. Stephanie robin in arizona. Welcome. Caller hi. Im happy for the opportunity to talk to you and the two bears. [ laughter ] stephanie okay. Go ahead. Caller and when tbone took my call, i said i wanted to speak about the right to work state recently in michigan. I moved from Washington State to arizona. Clearly i did not do my homework, and my husband has lived here for quite sometime, and at the time this would be nine and a half years ago, there were eighteen right to starve states as we calls them. Stephanie yeah. And now there are twenty four, and im really shocked i shouldnt be but im still shocked by what happened in michigan. Stephanie yeah. Caller i didnt believe this is how though governor wants to leave, to do Something Like this. And it seems like he is being very punishing. Stephanie thats what it seems like to me. Is this just payback . It is just it seems to me like a lot of that is payback. Gail in sacramento, you are on the Stephanie Miller show. Hi, gail. Caller hi it is gail with a g. Stephanie oh. Caller chris im the crna that wrote you about [ inaudible ] and more than you ever wanted to know. Oh, okay. Yeah. Caller the show is medically indicated to watch, it will be lower your blood rate and stress level. Stephanie oh, thank you. Caller the reason they are Union Busting is about money.

Stephanie yeah, somebody was saying this morning, it is a way to get Union Benefits without having to pay. Right. Stephanie did you see allen west, the former congressman he is still congressman right now until the 3rd. Stephanie killed very shortly. Right. Stephanie he went on the lovely and talented mark levin radio show who said his opponent only won because he cheated. He said im not going away just because of a congressional race where he seems to have had to cheat to beat me. Seems to. Seems to to me so therefore he did. Stephanie listen to this. Levin you are a national treasurer, you are way too important to have Something Like this happen to you, and off you go. [ bell chimes ] [ applause ] stephanie exactly that is exactly what can happen. Yes, yes it can. West im a warrior and servient and spokesman for the public. He seems to have had to cheat to beat me. Sure. Stephanie somebody speculated it seems like if he had any sort of evidence probably fox news would have run that 24 7. Yeah. Stephanie some kind of something there. He wrapped up the interview by accusing the president of being a marxist socialist. Oh allen southwest a skeeter. Ah. Stephanie maybe skeeter pack can help him in the next time he tries to run again. [ laughter ] stephanie lets go to shirley in philadelphia. Hi, shirley. Hey, how are you . Stephanie good go ahead. Caller i want to thank you for help me and my friend live through the last election. Stephanie oh thank you, shirley. Caller i will eliminated the word entitlement from my vocabulary, i call it my annuity. I want to replace food stamp and replace it with corporate welfare. It enables all of the rich in this country to pay their employees under the poverty level, app then food stamps are what you and i pay for, and they get into take all of the money home. Stephanie you know who is stuck in think craw is the Goldman Sachs ceo who said we cant afford to pay these benefits. Caller yes. Stephanie and for him to sit in his cushy office and say it is not a problem to raise the Social Security age, is different than the bricklayer that woman called about. Caller exactly. In 2001 we told you about skeeter, people after officialed with obama derangement syndrome. Skeeters condition has worsened. Were now to announce the formation of sweeter pac, ged indicated to counter the effects of obama derangement syndrome.

[ applause ] stephanie for those of you watching current, you got to see the magical moment when we realized that jim ward and i have the same taste in chicks. He showed me the picture, and we were both like hum, pretty hot. [ laughter ] stephanie lets go to deano in detroit. Welcome. Caller first i just want to thank you guys for your support, im a union worker in detroit. I i just wanted to mention that as a union worker where i work at we have what is called is the 30 and 0. And what that makes up for is it gives us 30 years on the job. We get to retire with full benefits and pension. Until the age of 65 then Social Security takes in. It actually creates jobs, because it gives my job to somebody younger, and im retired, and nobody is paying in he is paying in to Social Security for that ten years until i collect it. Stephanie yep, absolutely. I was just reading a piece in the times which was a good point of why things will are getting better. A lot of kids are moving out and buying houses because Interest Rates are so low, and yadda, yadda, yadda, and that was one of the things he was saying is that an important thing about opening up the job market for those that are younger. And thats why i was thinking about that paul ryan line that he thought was so clever kids are looking at their faded obama posters in their parents basements no, they are actually getting out and buying houses. What does that mean for us who are entering our sunset years. Stephanie oh thank you for including yourself. Senator lindsay graham. His proposal that he offered to boehner is literally a joke. It raised taxes by 1. 6 trillion and did nothing to save medicare and Social Security. Ill be on the veranda on the fainting couch with my mint jew ip [ laughter ] stephanie okay. I dont think thats far from the truth. Stephanie one more. He is afraid to go into an meeting and say if we dont adjust the benefits for Social Security and medicare they are going to go bankrupt. Stephanie you with your cushy medicare and Health Benefits whatever stephanie senator bob my fingers and ruin my man cure stephanie i bet that was Lindsay Grahams other job, laying brick. Oh yeah. His hands have seen bricks. Of gold. Yeah. [ laughter ] stephanie senator bob corker. Once you give him the right on the top 2 its actually much lesser tax increase than what he has been talking about. The focus then shifts to entitlements, and maybe that puts us in a place where we actually can do something that really saves this nation. There is a growing body. I am beginning to believe that is the best route for us to take, to again shift the focus where it needs to be which is in entitlements. Stephanie there is not a crisis on Social Security or medicare, and you are not going to address in two weeks. Exactly. Stephanie kevin mccarthy. He is a whip, you know. The president says he wants tax rate because he wants revenue. Republicans have already offered him the revenue. The president woe that means two and a half to three times as many spending cuts as there is to revenue. Idiot. Stephanie uhhuh. He is a human talking point. Yeah, he is the bad kevin mccarthy. Stephanie uhhuh. By the way, i have another round of, you know, guess the quote. Who said the gop put up a candidate that no one liked or understood, and ran a campaign that no one liked or understood a campaign that was based on keeping the surf held down mitt captured the imagination of millions and ran with a natural grace, there was very little chance that the awkward billionaire would have ever been president. Who said that . Tom morello. [ buzzer ] stephanie no. [ inaudible ]. Who would have ever thought that blacks would get out and support the first black president. Who would have ever thought gays would work against the party that treated them as subhuman and young people who ignored science and hectored on social issues, and latinos would go against a party who expected them to self deport. Who said that . [ inaudible ] [ buzzer ] ahhhhh stephanie no that would be maureen dowd. So close. Stephanie one last time [ jeopardy theme music ] stephanie gun sales have bergened with black fridays purchases setting records as the dead enders have rushed to arm themselves. The recently and restless hilary marched in and finished them off. Dick morris. Stephanie no that was a really bad guess. Maureen dowd. We have julie bolcer of the advocate coming up to talk about doma and the Supreme Court talking up prop 8 as we continue on the Stephanie Miller show. [ theme music ] stephanie hello current tv land. Jacki schechner thank you for alerting me to this. Orly taitz is asking the 80,000 people watching her Youtube Video to join her for a protest at the white house. Yeah. Stephanie jacki i bet more than 80,000 people watched the video of the dog in the fart machine, and yet i dont know if we can get them together at the white house. Im not sure there is anything to petition there. Stephanie well, because they were too busy looking for the monkey in the shearling coat. Stephanie i think it must have been from the kids department. Stephanie im buying that for you for a Christmas Present so you can wear it to the d. C. Sexy liberal in january. Because you are that little. Im not that small. Stephanie yes, you are like a little love monkey. Oh geez. 70 of americans want the president and congress to come some sort of compromise on avoiding the fiscal cliff. Only 18 of people say they still want each side to dig in their heels and stand on principle. Both asking each other could you be more specific . Aids say the president wanted boehner to offer up more issues on the tax revenue, and boehner wants the president to be more particularly about spending cuts. States have until this friday to tell the federal government whether they want to set up their own insurance exchanges or do it themselves. The government has given conditional approval to six tait states who want to do it themselves. Six want a state and federal partnership, and six havent said anything at all. Tennessee is the latest to say it wont set up an online marketplace bringing the total to 21. Republican governor said he is not a fan of the care act but he is one of several republicans who just did nothing until now, hoping the law would be overturned. Were back after the break. In the Ten Commandments is what shes joy behar. And current will let me say anything. Only on current tv. [ singing Christmas Carols in background ] aunt sallys singing again. Its a tradition honey.

Todays version of conservatives must have Barry Goldwater and your dad shaking their deads. I got to meet Barry Goldwater on several occasions. He would not be welcome in the gop of today, for one thing he was his own man. I seldom agreed with him, but i came to respect him.

This julie bolcer from the advocate, coming up at 8 30. This is interesting. We play be this may be a jacki situation. In 2003, Justice Scalia saw gay marriage coming. [ world news tonight theme ] stephanie [ inaudible ] rule in favor of Marriage Equality, one justice warned nearly a decade ago like i would be a bad thing that the court had already paved the way to do just that. Anthony scalia [ dramatic music ] after you read this ill tell you what he said yesterday. Stephanie okay. [ world news tonight theme ] stephanie the court ruled that states may not outlaw sodomy. Justice scalia knocked down the legal basis for outlawing gay marriage. [ screaming ] stephanie oh no he said todays opinion dismantels the distinction. Anthony kennedys majority opinion does not involve whether government must give formal recognition to any relationship that any homosexual person my enter. Retort . Do not believe it [ dramatic music ] stephanie he accused the majority of taking sides in the culture war and signed on to the homosexual agenda. Its all legal ease, but its interesting. Ten years later, Public Opinion as shifted dramatically in support of Marriage Equality. This reasoning leads on pretty shaky grounds [ inaudible ] to samesex couple. Nah nah nah nah nah but then he took a few steps back yesterday. He said if we cannot have moral feelings about homosexually, can we have it against murder or other things . Stephanie oh, yeah.

Jacki schechner at the beginning of the hour menti fixing obamacare, and of course our governor has already said no way to this and for a state that prides itself on independence, he is getting the government do it. Stephanie yeah, isnt that something, judy . That is in the isnt it ironic file. Because they hate obama so much and dont want to help him with now the government is going to run it, which is what they are against. They are hurting their own people just to make a point. Lets go to dana in maryland. Caller good morning, everybody. I wanted to tell chris about the d. C. Show. He did kind of give a little hint.

When youre doing rightwing world and im saying shut up and jim is saying idiot. Its really fun stephanie its mystery science insult theater. Caller chris you beat me to it with scalia yesterday. Yes. Stephanie and of all the Disgusting Things people have compared homosexuality is that not the worst . And he is a Supreme Court. Caller oh, yeah. Especially when the murder rates in this country are so out of control. Yeah, and there is a huge difference. Caller exactly. And so it scares me and i was wondering if you guys are a little worried or feeling confident stephanie i dont think anybody has any illusions as to how scalia is going to vote. Caller i just get a little nervous about those middlemen stephanie thats why you need to stay tuned because julie bolcer is coming up at the bottom of the hour. I just dragged you into doing a tease. You did. Merry holidays everyone. Stephanie you too. All right. Julie bolcer next on the Stephanie Miller show. Exciting issue. From financial regulation, iran getting a nuclear bomb, civil war in syria, fraud on wall street, destruction of medicare and medicaid. There are real issues here. Having been a governor, i know that tradeoffs are tough. Things everyday exploding around the world that leave no shortage for exciting conversations. I want our viewer to understand why things have happened. At the end of the show, you know what has happened, why its happened and more importantly, whats going to happen tomorrow. Sex lies puberty, betrayal relay races announcer Stephanie Miller. Reflects the drama of the human race. Stephanie pretty hot. Dana in maryland worried about the Supreme Court, who better to join us now than julie bolcer of the advocate. Good morning jewels. Hi, good morning. Stephanie good morning. Im sure you have heard what scalia said of all of the things i have heard gay being compared to, murder that is a new one. It is a knew one. Unfortunately i dont know that it is the first time that someone has probably made that comparison, but for someone on the court, i do believe that that is a first. Stephanie he is a disgrace in my opinion. I couldnt believe during even the affordable fair arguments, late rally they were talk points from someone you would hear on rightwing radio. Uhhuh. Very shocking comments yes. Stephanie but you have to wonder if they may be part of the way when you look at the way john roberts ruled, because he doesnt want this court to be seen as hyperpartisan. Now do you think this is going to play out . I would say that it is a moment probably that brings more apprehension for lbgt advocates than maybe on the surface. I dont know with other people that you have talked to that the feel is one of outright euphoria and enthusiasm for the court to be looking at this question. Particularly in the proposition 8 case. I think feel more nervous about that prospect than they may have been letting on, and i think the comments from Justice Scalia give you an indication as to why. So there is a lot at steak. And adding those remarks into the mix serve to highlight the issues that exist. Stephanie one thing that is interesting, you know, the story i was just doing. In 2003 justist scalia saw gay in the sodomy case. He said basically this opens the door to gay marriage, and i think he is right. Uhhuh. And you also mentioned justice roberts. You do have to consider his concern for his legacy here. I think as he matures as a chief justice in looking down the road, there is the question of where is this court going to be in history with him as the chief justice. So reigning in those comments and where the court will be in history will be a concern for him. Stephanie julie i talked to rob reiner chris perry, and sandy steer yesterday, all of whom are really optimistic. Where are you on it . You know, as i said you know, i kind of i get a lot of information from the people i talk to. My feeling is the front feeling, which is the optimism and the good face, and the positive face, and the positive foot forward, but i think if we go back to when the case was first filed this is the challenge to proposition eight. There was a really significant internal debate with some Legal Advocates saying that is not the way we want to go. But in the meantime i think more progress has hand on the state level. So what was a hesitancy of having the court ever look at the question was tempered somewhat by all of the developments that have happened more quickly than anyone thought in the past year year and a half, and now they are still looking at the question. Stephanie yeah the too far, too fast argument is some made about roe v. Wade and all of that. But this is happening at record pace, more so than i think any civil rights battle. Somebody made the point it was because more and more people obviously have learned that they know somebody gay, whereas obviously they were saying that the Civil Rights Movement you didnt suddenly discover someone is black. Right. Stephanie but i think as you say they do look at politics, look at the same polling we have, and look at the arc of history, and say a kennedy has the chance to do the brown versus board of education of our time. Sure. We dont know who voted to take up the proposition 8 case, right . At least four justices have to be supportive of the coming on board. Could it have been for liberal justices thinking that kennedy, the presumed swing vote might be with them or those opposed to Marriage Equality presuming that kennedy might be with them. But i think that the Court Despite being above the fray, as it were it interacted with the political realities and the world, so it is standoffish but it cannot help being effected from those around us. Stephanie not only it is repulsive what scalia said it makes no legal sense . Im seeing less and less legal reasoning for ruling against equal rights, arent you . I think so. And i think what is most potentially chilling about the marks is you say regardless of what he may think, but what does that tell us about what he thinks and the fact he will be looking at these cases, and were talking in particular about the proposition 8 case. But then what does it tell us about what is going through a justices mind when that kind of remark is said. Stephanie i think what it goes to is what we have stumbled on. With murder it is pretty clear what the harm is. They could not prove what the harm is here. Right . Where is the harm . It makes some people feel oogy. Stephanie right. Is feeling oogy is ale basis . Exactly. And that was a rational used in nevada when there was a challenge against that in Federal District court, and the judge upheld the ban, and that has now gone to appeal, and i think the people who want to uphold the constitutional amendment have appealed to the Supreme Court already last week. And the ruling was people who are heterosexual couples may be less inclined to get, you know, married if they know that the institution is open to samesex couple. Stephanie you sort of implied it julie, but you are much more hopeful about doma. A lot of people i have heard think that is a slam dunk. I wouldnt go far as to say that, because with the court we have to be open to anything. When a justice makes remarks such as had happened recently so what they are thinking about what they will ultimately do, anything can happen. Its only because of the two, federal Appeals Court rulings, and then i think you know one can also find it very interesting because the court will also be presented with question of the level of scrutiny that laws that affect gay and lesbian people should be subjected to. In this case the judges in the Second Circuit said you have to heighten that scrutiny. You better have a very very strong reason when you have a law that discriminates against gay and lesbian people. So we may come to the Supreme Court weighing in on that very important question. Stephanie okay. Im happy clappy is my normal state, and i remain happy clappy about this although that was after several phone calls to rob and michelle reiner. Are we there yet . Yes. It has been a great amount of work and as ted ohlson told reporters last week it is gratifying. Stephanie when i read his piece in news week the conservative piece for gay marriage, thats where i thought we crossed the Tipping Point, and when i was reading this week somebody wrote the religious case for gay americans, roman catholics, protestants are for it now. Yes. Stephanie julie always great to talk to you, thanks so much. And well check in as this rollings along. I think mixed feelings is what it is. Stephanie yes. [ applause ] you are entitled to life, liberty, and freedom from oogyness. Stephanie is that an actual term . I think it may be. Eplus does oogydom. Stephanie we posted on my Facebook Page because being ridiculed in every way is the same. In this case it was this britain has got talent thing. Its the overweight kid, and you can see the looks on peoples faces, and then he has this unbelievable voice, and it was talking about not judging people. Kind of like a susan boyle situation he doesnt found fat. Stephanie okay. His voice is hes seventeen. Yeah and he looks like a stoner. Poverati was no you know what im saying. Stephanie women called fat girls on restaurant receipt. [ world news tonight theme ] nice. Stephanie nice. Nice.

Jacki alerted us that orly taitz invited 80,000 who watched her Youtube Video to come rally with her. 80,000 people demonstrating before the white house or Capitol Building can make a difference. Just because 80,000 watched your video doesnt mean that there are 80,000 people that support you. Most of those probably were kind of pointing and laughing. And one guy might have been 50 of them. Yeah exactly. Stephanie you thought she was hot when she was in here. Kind of. In a. Stephanie i could tap that. Oh, god, now you are going to get a cease and desist.
