Significant was jan brewers language when she vetoed the bill. her language almost dripped with disdain for the other side. she simply said, for the republican side even. the bill itself. she said i dont know of a single case where religious liberty was violated by this idea. and you know, he thought that that was very significant because you know you might have expected her to kind of give a little bit more on that. >> marco rubio wouldnt support it but he said we have to balance these things c...

Enable them to pass, you know, again its his prerogative not to let that happen. now, is that good for them political politically? thats another question. i think particularly on things like immigration, there is potential for political damage to the party as a whole if not to individual members of congress. but, you know, we dont live in a pure democracy. everything is not a referendum. a popular vote of the american people. there are thing that is are popular with a majority of americans you p...

Secretary of state, almost until the end. wouldnt run. so he -- >> he was afraid that a more conservative guy who would run, who wouldnt want to fight the war and wouldnt want a new deal to continue. >> thats right. he didnt want anybody who was about a new dealer and didnt want anybody who wouldnt support his policy of aid to britain when britain was hanging by a thread. >> everybody forgets what it was like in this country. france was fallen, england was threatened, the low countries were gone...

Said in that campaign when asked who would martin luther king support in the early primary. he said king wouldnt support any of us, hed be in the street for justice. that tells me where i ought to be, most of us who dream of a better world we ought to be. not the sites of power we dont have access to but the sites we have access to, neighborhood, street, community, classroom and thats what i do. >> to follow on that, bill, the notion that change and progress are happening on the local, municipal...

Answer the question. he wouldnt say if he thought businesses should be able to discriminate based on race. >> these are important philosophical debates but not a practical discussion. >> its pretty practical to those who had their life beaten out of them trying to desegregate walgreens lunch counters. this is not a hypothetical, dr. paul. >> it is a hypothetical. the day after that interview, paul said that he wanted to be clear, saying he would have voted for the civil rights act and wouldnt su...

Filibuster as well. that means a total of ten republican senators who wouldnt support the filibuster, and if i have done the math right that is double the amount they need to override it. it is still more than enough, even if you subtract the squishy two. the vote is not expected until thursday, the full senate vote not expected until after that, but honestly, barring something unforeseen, well have a new defense secretary and it will be chuck hagel because of math. im lorenzo. i work for 47 dif...

Filibustering, that is a leap, if they filibuster chuck hagel, they will not succeed. we know it because of math. there are 55 senators in the democracy caucus, they support chuck hagel, you need 60 to override a filibuster, so if you carry the one, the democrats only need one on their side to support a filibuster, there are two on record supporting chuck hagel for defense secretary, and weve seen reports for another six republican senators who have said that even though they may, oppose hagel, ...

Of weeks, then he abandoned that because he felt it wasnt getting him anywhere. mitt romney is trying to project an image of someone who would reach across the aisle and see both sides to pull that together. >> i think thats more window dressing. if he wants to convince somebody, for instance, if simpson bowles, his vice-president voted against twas on the commission, voted against it, wouldnt let it out of committee, didnt propose it, wouldnt support it -- >> martha: he said thats because it wo...

Im very sorry. >> you know that is the last question she wants to answer. richard wolff is msnbc political analyst. good afternoon. >> hello! >> very exciting. crystal, i want to start with you. the womens groups, there was a protest outside of the fund-raiser for mitt romney. and theyre really seizing on this etch a sketch to make the point that you cant shake away -- to make the point that in a general election, we dope know what his role record would be on womens issues. will that stick? >> a...

For a lifetime commitment to the federal court. secondly, that suggestion why i may not have originally supported her in the first instance is pretty ludicrous considering the fact i have already supported three previous nominees who came from the u.s. attorneys office under former chris christie as the u.s. attorney and all three of them i supported for judgeships including to the circuit court. so pretty ludicrous that id already have supported three nominees who came out of the u.s. attorneys...
