Largest in 80 years. The kbps. You know what the blue chips are having pressure . They had a disappointing Fourth Quarter and were not for the full year. Investors dont like what is happening, they are pounding the stock pretty bad thinking of the hit. I want you to take a look at mcdonalds. Profits down 23 in the last quarter and also warned january sales are likely to be negative but looks like it is turning the corner. Maybe millennials i changing their minds. We will see mcdonalds seeing it faces significant challenges for wall street. The big story the day saudi arabias long time rollicking bob dahl led dead at age 90. His halfbrother, deputy Prime Minister salman is taking over assuming the throne, he assumed the throne shortly after abdullah bin abdulazizs death. The president of the American Islamic forum for democracy and author of the book battle for the soul of islam. You are not shedding it here. You say america ones a new friend, you disagree . I look at this as a reformer someone who wants to see the transformation of the middle east with liberty and freedom and those are not words uttered by this family. The new king will be the same as the old king. Ultimately the sad thing is kings die mercifully but daily if not weekly there are liberals who are trying to reform is long to stop the radicalization that may be an ally but abdallah oversaw countries that created the radical ideas of al qaeda that attacked us on 9 11, that attacked us at fort hood, continue to attack harris on and on. I see no moral difference between the terrorists in paris and the house of saud who torture muslims because of laws they have in the government that prevent reform necessaries for true modernization. Charles across the internet i even looked at the beginning of a burmese woman in saudi arabia. The be heading was an illegal act, and underscore is the things you said. A lot of people the enemy of my enemy is my friend. In this case were talking isis. Is that enough for america to embrace saudi arabia despite the negatives you laid out . In the short term in our whatcom will program it makes sense because al qaeda is our immediate threat across the world but in the long term we have to abandon that. That made sense in the cold war when we had bigger threat with the soviets and the middle east was a playground of finding the any of our enemy but now as the arab awakening is happening liberals on the ground are looking at america as hypocritical. To hear the president say the king had the courage of his convictions, come on. What are those convictions . They are aggressive, they are evil and we need to call it state to state if we are not hypocrites of religious freedom and the principles we supposedly defend. If you want to counterradicalize and not prevent what is happening in yemen and across the middle east, we cant continue to embrace the any of our enemy because we dont have the same allies. It seems our pool of allies is shrinking every single day and that puts this in precarious situation nearterm. Iran with this intercontinental ballistic missile, who knows how far it can go . It could fit any country in europe and maybe one day even go across to our shores. Israel alone cant be the only friend that we have even if we have to look away from certain indiscretions or what happened to the idea of back door diplomacy, the new crew in saudi arabia, younger, more a educated, have gone to western schools the idea that let women start driving cars that women vote, stop beating people in the middle of the street, you think we can let those things live at the same time . This is why daily, weekly the president needs to letter from his lips the names of prisoners of conscience, prisoners who once we start honoring them, just like reagan added the name and we call the soviets the evil empire, we can work with them with shortterm similar goals against al qaeda and others that these oppressive regimes are producing the radicals victims of al qaeda, all while the fuel every barrel they sell radicalizes muslims in their homes and across the planet. If we are going to change the paradigm we need to have a strategy against jihad globally which is the advancement of liberty in places like yemen will deteriorate and the middle east will divide into a sectarian battle between two sides of the same radical islam is in from the shiites in iran and radical sunni islam from al qaeda, hamas and isis. Charles what is the answer . We follow what you just said what we are talking about is this goes back to the death of muhammed. Will be the heir apparent . Which religion is real and which one is intended longest the other one is the infidel or false religion this never stops. This is why we need a leader of the free world and in europe free World Leaders to look at the blend of history today, where we are, not where they think we are on mars. The state of the union was missing what is really happening. Islam today is where the west was in the sixteenth, seventeenth and eighteenth century when they were rejecting a theocracy as we have an opportunity now with the arab awakening in egypt, no one is talking about how to nietzsche voted out right, is longest have been secular, democratic parties there. Stuart islam modernized against theocracy shiite arsenic, we have to start empowering on the ground the movements of freedom in all these countries can see it on a daily basis and we are not doing that. Charles glad we have your police. To nietzsche, birthplace of the arab spring, it is amazing, glad you came to share your thoughts with us and at the back again real soon, thanks. Charles on saudi arabia lets look at oil, and change, mary kissel from the wall street Journal Editorial Board with us. King abdallahs death led some point have an impact on oil. A lot of theories out there but one of the big fees, the band wagon i am on a saudi arabias less grass at controlling the oil market, sent prices down to chris kirk rivals particularly american fracking. Exactly right but the rivals they are trying to crush our russia in iran. I dont think the death of King Abdallah will have any major impact on how saudi arabia is looking at the oil market because there is something bigger had there. There is an existential threat to saudi arabias existence. The passage of the king, i dont think it changes their attack on the oil market. Charles we talked a little bit about the arab spring. I remember in saudi arabia, a little nervous, giving out a lot of money they must feel the time has passed to allow oil to get this cheap but they may have problems with succession and things like that. What happens if there is internal turmoil there, family members, the crown prince salman is 79 years old. I dont think he will be in for a long period of time. I worry less about that transition and more about how the Obama Administration is going to handle it. Saudi arabia feels very under threat not just from iran and russia but from isis, the forces outside, they dont really trust us any more. We have the crown prince and wall street journal editorial, one of the princes in the editorial page. He used strong words it was shocking interview because he said where is america in the middle east . What are the goals . We see terrorism spreading . Where are you guys . Charles in the state of the Union Address everything is fine. It doesnt even exist. Doesnt even mention it. Charles by the way what was the biggest we that we had that everybody fired up in the editorial meeting for the show this morning . Youtube stars interviewing the president . What about the present factss plans for the 529 plan . The thing that got everybody tossup was hockey. Which one is better starbucks or Dunkin Donuts . Starbucks is up big today and you loved their coffee. Weigh in on this one. Happy to weigh in on this with everyone watching varney and company will tell you whether they love starbucks or Dunkin Donuts. They have more food, 9 million more customers than the prior year. At the new york stock exchange, walks around, did a survey. It says, this is a terrible survey and 26 like starbucks. All those this is the way to go. If i go to Dunkin Donuts on order a triple espressos. Charles i am not a fan of either one. These espressos all day long case nasty but are strong. Really getting in vain. Charles i am an ex alcoholic. The best thing for me as espresso. Is amazing on the floor, the exact opposite does it like bigtime, not afraid to spend 5 bucks on a cup of coffee. We have one here and there was always a line here. Charles there was always a line. Imagine if they brought up starbucks. Everybody watching this show. It is at an alltime high. President obama, youtube store closed out yesterday same person on your screen bathing and fruit loops. Are we being too harsh on the president with respect to this . Criticizing this interview . Call me cynical but youtube is owned by google, a big backer of the president , this is a big pr event so i connected the dots, and surrounded by sycophantic. Charles doesnt think he could be intellectually challenged, how can you challenge he is comfortable with these people. He is very frank. He says things like wouldnt it be great to take money, suck money out of private banks. The internet takes down north korea. End more pressure on castro. It was a frank, open into view. Charles was there any push back . I dont think so. Charles wall street Editorial Board not sure that is west time. The office of the presidency redresses down the supreme court, talk to republicans in the state of the Union Address. I am more concerned about that. Charles he is more concerned about being hit and school. Americans sniper breaking all kinds of records, and and boston bombers on the cover. Great movie everybody seems to love. To the kid.

Charles lets look at the big board, a lot of pressure on the blue chips, Online Stores at fox, finally gone public today and postponed this idea own twice, the waiting worked off a. 56 . Rolling stone magazine the headline here americans sniper is almost too done to criticize. Heres a quote. To turn the iraq war into a saccharine, almost p g rated cinematic diversion about a killing machine with a heart of gold and very slowly starts to feel bad after shooting enough women and children that was a hard one to see coming. Concerned veterans for america ceo and Fox News Contributor is with us. Something tells me you have a different idea about it. Myself and the over 100 million in ticket sales who fled to this movie because they believe in what chris kyle stood and fought for, when he died for, what he put his life on the line for. He put his life on the lines of folks like matt taibbi and michael more could make absurd comments and statements that the bigger issue is it underscore is the anti military nature of hollywood. It panders to the value in this statement does michael more native week, this is the full article making effectively and anti military case. They like to celebrate we support the troops but not the war but when it comes down to wet, they are dumb, ignorant over the religious, bloodthirsty, that is how they see chris kyle and that leads through this article. Charles they have a hard time trying to hide their disdain for the warrior themselves. What about the notion that america not only glorifies war but act like we are the only ones who have been victimized we have to kill everybody else on the planet because they offended us or scare us. War is hell. War is difficult. People died. That people die, good people die, people who deserve it and innocents. Everyone acknowledges that including chris cotter libya looking into these when he was alive, he talked about moral conflict between watching people die at the tee couldnt save the iraqis and americans. One phrase matt taibbi used was chris kyle was a killing machine with a heart of gold and that is america. We have the biggest, baddest most powerful military in the world that could kill anybody it wanted but we have a heart of gold, we believe in american exceptionalism and the cause of freedom so were judicious in how we apply it just like how chris kyle is judicious in how he applied his violence as a sniper. America is a great story with the powerful military. We defend free people and we dont counter that land. That is what we should talk about not criticize the snipers doing his job. Charles i think he meant to the heart of gold angle differently. What i worry about is because the left has been so adamant against first was the war in vietnam and the general topic of war itself to america is the policeman of the world, at the end of the day wont people around the world suffer more if americans dont show up to help break up civil strife and dictators . Look at syria. We are closing in on 200,000 civilians dead. The idea of parking americas military killing machine could be death to the entire planet. Isnt that right . Is not america who is it going to be . Who is behind as ready to carry the vanguard of freedom . The bridge could hand over the guarantor of freedom to was after world war ii but there is no one else to be the guarantor of the free world and if we decide to sit it out, decide not to confront the big challenges of the date is not that russia will takeover or the islamists will takeover it will be chaos which is exactly what we are seeing in libya and iraq and syria and afghanistan and all the places where we decided to pull back. American leadership stabilizes the area and make sure the forces of good have a forceful seat at the table. History is not over and we are not sure where things go. Charles keeping the peace is the foundation that created a billion extra middleclass people in the last two decades. You mention the money angle, we brought adam shapiro in. Over 100 million. In the first few days. That was the first four days 107 million but now we are going into the second weekend of this film and is projected according to variety and take in 45 million. Put this in perspective. We have two huge movies opening this weekend. Jennifer lopez and the bully next door and johnny depp in this thing called modified. It takes in 12 to 15 million and modify is expected to take in 10 to 12 million the americans sniper will take 40 million and will be the largest second weekend ever for in any film in january, pre ticket order sales. This film resonates with the majority of americans. That matt taibbi article said something about this. Is the fact the movie is popular and actually make sense to so many people that is the problem. That is what he is saying. To what the previous guest was saying, what matt taibbi, america is good and people who are watching this film understand america is good and have no problem saying it or believing it. Charles that is like putting an end on your head with this pledge of allegiance. A lot of people dont like the concept of that. I dont know if you were smirking when i was hyper bolick about america saving the world. Think about what happened in asia. None of these countries will prosper without the u. S. Navy failing up and down and letting trade happen. We are not in the middle east and pete says we make mistakes but the foundation was good and the foundation from which we project Foreign Policy is founded in the right principles. Charles thanks a lot. Bob dylan, the voice of the hippy generation, says government doesnt create jobs. It is the billionaires to do. The full story next. Now and of date this morning on that terrible, i am talking about horrific fire at that apartment complex in new jersey. This is in edgewater. Great news no people so far reported missing. Several pets are believed to have died in the fire. Hundreds of people looking for a place to live. Bob dylan. Sure starting to sound like a capitalist. The government will not create jobs. It does not have to. People have to create jobs. Mary, did you ever think you would hear Something Like this coming from the lips of bob dylan . Kind of blaming the billionaires. Yes. The fact that he does the interview at all shows that he is a capitalist. [laughter] charles the cheapest ticket would be 500. Aarp is a big obama supporter and a big supporter of Big Government. Charles he still admits that government cannot do it. This is what it is all about. All of these new cash policies. When it comes to creating jobs, it has to be business. The president said, i created a lot of problems. Lets just keep doing what we are doing. Charles president obama wants a get ready for a serious fight on capitol hill. Stuart performing some of these welfare programs. They will come down on you like a ton of bricks. You are a vicious, nasty meanspirited guy. You summed that up very, very well. Charles someone sideways here. The nasdaq is looking amazing. Those stocks are rocking. Boy oh, relatively unchanged. You have two dynamics. The largest stockpiles in 80 years. We may come back on monday at 2 nationwide. Twentyeight states in the 1 club. That is where the state average is below 2 a gallon. 1. 51 at milford michigan.
