Issued this comment. his remarks on race are offensive and i wholeheartedly case gre disagree with him. bundy wanted to clarify his comments at a press conference. >> i wasnt saying i thought that they should be slaves. i was not saying theyre better off. i was wondering if theyre better off? theyre not slaves no more. they seem to be slaves to the welfare system and this type of thing. but they have opportunities. look, we have -- a good example i guess. look how far we have come to have a pres...

He was convicted of something he probably didnt do and he was executed shortly afterward without even an appeal. and so that is the core argument and they are asking for this case to be thrown out in essence and for his name to be cleared and so toward that end, they are putting witnesses on the stand who claim that they have evidence that they are not allowed to give at the time because his family was run out of town. on the stand right now is his sister, katherine steny robinson, age 79, who w...

On those people. what they did not do today is actually adequately address the potential risks of even a limited and targeted strike. its crystal clear that theyre not doing what they did in iraq here. there arent troops going in or anything like that. but there are multiple threats that could result as a reaction to even limited strikes. youve got terrorist organizations in syria that might use this as an opportunity to strike against israel and other allies in the united states. youve got even...

Committee, the congressional committee, pulled its funneleding from the sanford campaign because he was seen as tainted and tarnished. but look. mark sanfords core argument is dont judge me by my scandals. judge me on my policies. he can say with some credibility he has been a consistent fighter for fiscal conservativism even before it was cool. going back to the republican revolution in 1994. thats the policies that rand paul is associating himself with and nikky haley to some level. this congr...

While im paying for his golf vacations and hes paying a 18% tax rate. its hypocritical for this president to take the position that rich people arent paying their fair share and he makes a pr move im giving back 5% of my salary back to the federal government, that amounted to $20,000. if you had assay 21% tax rate than 18%, you wouldnt have to sacrifice that $20,000 with your 5% salary and paid your fair share. >> megyn: does it undermine his argument, simon, its so wrong and unfair. i do it, bu...

Part its black-on-black violence. the president wont talk about it. its a damn shame. she be at the funeral for the girl who was at his inauguration. he should be talking about this. youre letting a most amazing opportunity go by. of course the president pushing the police officers -- no one wants the police outgunned. were not talking about the police being outgunned. were talking about kid getting off a bus and getting shot in the streets, every single day. >> in chicago at a higher rate than ...

Unfair to republicans like arlen specter. they existed. their vision for the republican party was to compromise on a couple things, build the party on immigration reform, build the party on a medicare part "d," on no child left behind. all things demint opposed. he succeeded in making republicans elected from places that safely vote republican more conservative. he didnt broaden the party at all. i mean, mitch mcconnell is not just craven. he believes to win the party, cant vote the way jim demi...

President picking up on the fact that mitt romney right before hurricane sandy hit had started to identify himself as the change candidate here and the president pointing out change of facts is not change. what do we make of the last four days and this line-up back and forth? >> its interesting theyre both returning to obamas core argument of 2008. it wasnt one obama emphasized particularly throughout the course of the race. hope and change were difficult words for him obviously because they did...

I dont think i heard that phrase from axle rod or mayor vil rosa. the republicans half believed it was a threat they simply rolled out the republican convention we love women we are not engaged in a war on women. i wonder if that was a little bit of a miss hit. they go with the economic argument. cutting taxes to the wealthy. that will be the core argument not the social issues, i suspect. >> the thing i want to finish off on president obamas speech is the head liern. it is a close second for a ...

I dont think i heard that phrase from axelrod or mayor villaraigosa. >> chris: why not? >> i wonder if the base loves it and they spent a week or two doing it. and the polls showed no one really believes the republicans are waging a war on women. the republicans sort of believed it was a threat. the theme at the republican convention was we love women and we are not engaged in a war on women. i bond fer that was a little bit of misdirection by the democrats. seems they will go with the economic ...
