FOXNEWSW The OReilly Factor July 25, 2014

Enter the no spin zone, the factor begins right now. Hi, im bill oreilly. Thanks for watching us tonight. President obama and the folks. That is the subject of this evenings talking points memo. As i mentioned last week, some are calling for the president to be impeached. So i asked a fox news polling people, scientific poll, to form a question about impeachment, results came in last night. 36 favor impeaching barack obama, 61 do not. Now, the reason the majority of americans reject impeachment spectacle because they know it hurts the country. No support that drastic legal action he would never be convicted. When president clinton got into trouble with Monica Lewenski the u. S. A. Poll 45 approval and 53 disapprove. Impeach isnt a last resort mechanism. Even though the president is having trouble most believe its a overreaction that would damage the country. There is no question the president is under pressure. On every issue the folks disapprove 6 his performance. Immigration, 5 disapprove. 48 approve. Finally on how the president is handling the border crisis involving children approve just 31 . Disapprove 56. So you can see barack obama has lost the folks, at least americans who evaluate things in a fair way. There will always be zealots on both sides to vote their ideology or skin color or whatever. Talking points believes president obamas current problems are being exacerbated, word of the day exacerbated by his demeanor. As we have been reporting, he seems disengaged, apathetic even arrogant at times. When he speaks about the border or middle east or putin, me an ders, doesnt seem authoritative. The perception even in some democratic precincts is that president obama has lost his ability to deal with things effectively. Interesting question on the fox news poll was. This does barack obama even want to be president anymore . 52 say yes, but 41 of americans thinks he has had enough. And that may be true. From the president s point of view he believes he is being treated unfairly by the republican house. And that the media, which once adored him is not giving him enough support these days. The president is not the kind of guy who rallies the troops. Is he an academic, a consensus seeker. Well, there is consensus now. Majority of americans believe president obama is failing in his job. Thats the memo. Now for the top story tonight. Reaction. With us here in new york city, one of the cohost of the five andrea tantaros. From washington democrat james carville, what do you attribute the president s low poll numbers across the board too . Why do you think thats happening . First of all, they are stable and they have been around these numbers for quite a while. There is a lot of things that are going on in the world. Peoples incomes have not gone up like they like it. So he is according to the aggregate he is about 43. 6, which is not very good but its not collapsing and unstable. The issue on every single issue he is getting failing grades. I mean what im trying to get at here is not technical garbage. I understand. All right. The perception is he is failing to solve the problems. Now,. Right. Is that perception fair in your opinion . Well, i think the economy can be the best year for private job creation in this century. Lowest unemployment claim, it takes a while for these things to get in the bloodstream. Median income is still falling. His approval is about 43. 5. Approval 52. More people disapprove of it it thats not unusual at this point. You are dodging the question, do you think its fair in every area that americans are saying he is not cutting it . Do you think its fair . Again, right, do you know what . Whether its fair or not, thats public opinion, i further think that honestly, i dont really think he much cares what we think. I agree with you on that. I dont think he much cares about his poll numbers. I really dont. He doesnt seem to he is fundraising again this week. He doesnt i think he thinks he is done and is doing a good job. And history will record him and he is doing it by consensus. All right. I agree with carville he doesnt care. Do you think he cares . I dont think. I think thats the reason why the poll numbers are so low. Because people dont believe that he cares. Is he not even pretending like he cares, bill. At least bill clinton tried to feel peoples pain. President obama doesnt care. He makes no effort. And the more republicans ramp up the criticism, the more passive aggressive he gets. You want me to go to the border . Im deliberately not going to go. He doesnt care. Do you think is he a passive aggressive . I think is he is very passive aggressive in the way he handles things. The more people ask him to do things, the less he wants to do them. And he recoils. I think, yes, this is all about keeping the senate for him. Thats why he is fundraising. He could care less about anything else. He would do better though, believe it or not, losing the senate, in my opinion. And having that Republican Congress to run against like clinton did, because then he really could do what he likes, thats demonize the right and fund raise for his library and then he really doesnt have to talk about the scandal. In the meantime, we are really in dangerous territory here in a number of different areas, particularly in iran, i mean, that is an off othe chart dangerous situation. The isis army. They are making great gains, the president hasnt hit them once. It seems to me that, okay, we are discussing politics now. Lets discuss real life. Is he not solving the problems, carville. He is just not. Let me be clear about something. I think he cares about his job. I just think he doesnt care what we think. No all right, im not disagreeing with you on that. I know. Okay. I think one of the happiest days of Barack Obamas life will be when he leaves. I dont think he wants to hold on to this job. Honestly, the modern politician in some ways that he reminds me most of and this is kind of odd is dick cheney. I dont think dick cheney really cared what people thought about him. To some extent i think that the president is increasingly like that. He doesnt much like politics. And he is pretty much decided that he is going to do what he wants to do. When you are walking away from solving these problems that are massive and getting worse. Right. I dont think in his mind, i dont think is he walking away at all. And i think i think that he is working hard on these problems. You know, again, the middle east problem has been trouble in gaza since 5,000 years or Something Like that. You are going to hear in a moment coming after you that the president was warned about this isis army. Did absolutely nothing. And now its a crucial situation. All right, let me get to andrea for the last word here. Go ahead. Now, the reason i think that the poll numbers for him arent even lower because they kind of bottom out about 40 . All right . He still holds that 40 approval. Because you have a coalition of people, africanamericans, for example, they are still with him, all right . Sure. Liberal americans. They are still with him. Umhuh. Democrats, some of them he has lost. But the party is worried. So that coalition keeps him at 40. Umhuh. All the independents are gone. And, you know, the folks who dont Pay Attention that much, they are gone, too. In the last poll we looked at, every demographic that he won, independents, hispanics, women, he has lost significant ground with and thats really troubling. I would disagree with james. James said that the president he doesnt really care about politics. I think the only thing he cares about bill with politics. He doesnt care about policy and problems. He doesnt know what to do. His whole staff is political. He put jen psaki at the state department i do think he likes his job. He likes the perks. Remember when he was asked what is the best part . Its air force one. He likes being president. He doesnt like the hard stuff about being president. Dont you think when he leaves the white house that he is going to be relieved and then looking at making 30 or 40 million a year in speaking and writing. I think he is going to skip out of there, andrea. He is going to go down the yellow bring road, here i go. Im out of here. Do a couple cart wheels. Thats what i think is going to happen. Is he going to milk every perk until the very end. I think things are going to get worse, i hate to say that. I really do. This iran thing is really troubling. Carville, thank you, andrea,. You bet. Hesitant to attack the isis army as mentioned. Thats causing destruction throughout the middle east. Why is the president hesitant. Later republican senator rand paul doesnt want to go after isis either. Laura ingraham will analyze that moments away. Nexium®,is now available, without a prescription for frequent heartburn. Get complete protection. Because the best moments in life arent experienced from the sidelines. Now theres Nothing Holding you back. This is nexium level protection™. The 1 prescribed acidblocking brand. Now without a prescription for frequent heartburn. Get complete protection. Nexium level protection™. Washington beat segment tonight. Troubling situation about terrorists. Yesterday, state department big shot testified that the isis army, also known as isil, is now a huge threat. Ice sill is no longer simply a terrorist organization. It is now a full blown army seeking to establish a selfgoverning state through tigris and you uphrates valley. The u. S. Did nothing to stop them gaining power. We did see this coming. That makes it even more troubling that the administration didnt do what was mess to prevent isis from taking over such a large swath of iraq. Joining us now from washington, ace correspondents carl cameron and james rosen. Is that a Fair Assessment from the congress from california that they knew about it and they didnt care no. No, i wouldnt say they didnt care they did have indications that Something Like this was going to happen. Remember that isis overtook fallujah and ramadi in january. And, in fact, i sat down with secretary kerry in iraq a month ago and i asked him look, you saw fallujah fall, you saw ramadi fall. That was in january. What did you do to prevent mosul from falling in june it doesnt look like very much. The secretary said he can provide a detailed warning that the Obama Administration provided in that time frame. He did not provide it. Look, the question is, why is the administration not taking shots at isis or firing any shots at isis as you just mentioned in the previous segment . The answer is for a number of reasons. Overriding amongst which is the commander and chief who harbor as real revulsion toward the military power as we discussed previously here on the factor. Even if that were not the case, mr. Obama came to office pledging to end the iraq war and having kept that pledge he is loathe to take any action that would appear to be renegativing on it especially in a midterm year. Looking foolish and everybody is now saying look, we have got another problem here. We have got a terror army. That has said they are going it strike jordan and other countries in the United States. And the president sits there. He has got a drone arsenal. He has air force power in the area. And he didnt do anything when they were building in syria to stop that and he is not doing anything now. He sent a few advisors into iraq he could hit them from the air. He could hit those caravans and refuses to do so. You think its a revulsion to use military power. He just doesnt want to do it. Since mosul fell in fairness. He has deployed about 300 military advisors there and ramped up our intelligence and surveillance and so forth. One interesting point from yesterdays House Foreign Affairs committee hearing, bill, from which you played those sound bites was that the degree to which even democrats, such as the panels ranking member, congressman elliott angle of new york faulted the Obama Administration for not having done enough to help the socalled vetted moderate opposition in syria over a year ago before jihadists there reached their present level of influence and spread like isis to iraq. And just let me quote Elliott Ingle for you. We waited so long said the democrat from new york that now isis is far more difficult to stop. There is no doubt about it that if you criticism. If you let this stuff fester and grow, they become a problem. All right, now, cammeron, john mccain, you know, very, very antiobama. Says the president has brought a lot of the congressional problems that he cites, the president cites among himself. Roll the tape. When is the last time he called leaders of both parties together at the white house say for a dinner, a social event, you know, that reagan was best at, clinton did . How poisonous is the atmosphere. As poisonous as everybody is talking about. House republicans suing the president. Republicans who think that the president should be impeached. The president forced the healthcare law, the Affordable Care act through the house and Senate Without allowing republicans to get any kind of amendment to it. There has been acrimony since the first term there is no discussion between either side. Its gotten to the point now where both sides are utterly wedded to servicing their political bases. President obama is working on his legacy. He cant get anything through you congress so is he using executive orders and his pen and his phone as he said to do things unilaterally that further urks the republicans. The democrats see the republicans in the house to unwilling to compromise at all. In terms of house races the congressional jerry man dering very red or very blue makes the republicans to go further to the right and democrats further to the left. Centrist democrats are really worried about the president s agenda. As you showed in those polls, bill. The president is incredibly un. Larr. Both the president and the congress have hit record lows even bill clinton when he was impeached. There is a feeling and i think its an accurate feeling on the part of the folks that he is not going to get anything done. We should for the record, president obama so far has signed 184 executive orders. In his 8 years. George w. Bush signed 291. Bill clinton 364. Boy, thats a lot. And bush the elder, 66. Barack obama has not overused the executive order thing right now as it stands. Is that accurate . Well, that is statistically accurate. It also depends on the topics and the substance. Absolutely. Another point very important here. That is that the Senate Democrats with the president s approval changed the rules for judicial nominees. Changed the rules for nominees in general. As a consequence of that, there is a tremendous amount of acrimony on both sides. Yeah, there is no doubt. In this Election Year its poison. Gentlemen, thank you. Laura ingraham analyze senator rand paul wants to be president. He doesnt want to get involved overseas. Later Bernie Goldberg banning the press from a tribute honoring the apollo 11 astronauts. Why . The factor is coming right back. Huh, fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more on car insurance. Yeah, Everybody Knows that.

Youve reached the age where you know how things work. This is the age of knowing what needs to be done. So why let erectile dysfunction get in your way . Talk to your doctor about viagra. 20 million men already have. Ask your doctor if your heart is healthy enough for sex. Do not take viagra if you take nitrates for chest pain; it may cause an unsafe drop in Blood Pressure. Side effects include headache, flushing, upset stomach, and abnormal vision.

Whos more excited about savings at staples . The moms . Or the dads . With guaranteed low prices on notebooks, its definitely the dads. Staples. Make more happen for less.

The Fastest Office plant. So why wouldnt i choose the fastest wifi . I would. Switch to comcast Business Internet and get the fastest wifi included. Comcast business. Built for business. Week in review from the ingraham angle tonight it. Senator rand paul taking a look at the run in 2016. Charismatic guy departs from many because he wants to stay out of foreign quarrels. Thats a libertarian point of view. We have tried to get senator paul on the factor he has declined despite appearing elsewhere. Joining us from washington laura ingraham. So, do you think senator paul can run on an isolationist platform with all the troubles in the world . Well, bill, what i think he is doing, right, is he is capturing what a lot of people are feeling out there after, you know, obviously the bush years and a sense that we didnt really win in iraq or iraq is now in chaotic terms, you can talk about who is responsible for that and obama, you know, didnt finish the job and all of that just the way the American People feel, he is probably closer and is he closer in every poll with the way they feel about getting involved militarily in syria and ukraine. In iraq than i think john mccain or Lindsey Graham are. He is a lot closer to them. Thats starting to change now with the growing danger of the isis army we saw there iran flimflamming everybody over nukes. I dont think so i dont think it is. I think its starting to change. I think if the puck prosecutes run in 2016 on the george bush kind of approach to Foreign Policy, we are going to have a much more muscular Foreign Policy that people read as a lot more wars, military intervention. We are going to spend a lot more money overseas. I think rand paul is banking on someone like a jeb bush doing that. Because i think he believes and he
