have turned to virginia where that new bill mandated for a woman to receive an abortion she must undergo an procedure that some call state-sanctioned rape. now the law does not promote the procedure but they call it a

gestational exam. withlate yesterday a vote on the bill was delayed as the governor called the legislatures together to amend the language. this afternoon they announceed rye touch faintly that a deal has been reached. i'm asking the general assembly to state in this legislation that only a transabdominal or external ultrasound will be required to satisfy the requirements to determine gestational age. should a doctor determine that any form of ultrasound is necessary that will be an issue for the doctor and the patient the government will have no role in that medical decision. the bill with the new amendment quickly introduced on the house floor passed 65-32. while the amendment removed the warding mandating the transvaginal ultrasound the need for the procedure remains because in the early stages, a pregnancy, usually is not able to retrieve accurate images from

the fetus. still images are required to obtain an abortion. undergo a transvaginal ultrasound or wait until for the fetus to be seen by the external ultrasound. the bill does not mandate the procedure but the woman is still compelled to undergo it. this crazy ass bill with the new amendment will come up for a vote in this crazy ass senate on friday. joining me, irene. thanks for coming in. >> thanks, keith. >> from what you can tell is this in fact, this whole dance about allowing governor mcdonald to say i took the mean tv word out of this equation but there is still the process is still necessitated by what they're setting up here. >> honestly, to begin with, this is a procedure that is not medically necessary even if you're doing it through the abdominal wall, even if you're not doing a transvaginal

ultrasound. this is to humiliate women and try to get them to change their minds. >> intimidate them. >> bully them. but this word has caused a lot of trouble for the republican. this bill has passed in a lot of states but that word never caught on. if you do have to produce the images then it's hard to fulfill it. the bottom line, it's already trying to get the doctor to do something that is beyond what the doctor would normally have at their discretion. some clinics already do have elective ultra sounds. but shoving in the doctor to the woman. >> in the new language the governor is saying we're not going to mandate this, but the doctor will have to mandate this. the responsibility is shunted away from the state even though the state is demanding it. it's a perfect--it is a definition of a catch 22. you don't need this exam. you can't make the doctor do it but you don't have to have the results of the exam. >> currently it doesn't make sense. it's not clear what is going to

happen once the senate gets it. the point is mc mcdonald has had to be on defense. this is the man who has passed legislation that was intended to shut down abortion clinics that performed abortions in the first trimester. nobody knew that. now he has to back down and we'll see what happens in the senate. >> i was going to ask you if there was a victory contained in all this. or a positive. for years legislatures have been doing things like this. is it all because of a word or a tipping point where people just sat back and said, this is crazy? >> look at the last few weeks. we've had this susan g koman debacle. the legislation trying to take away birth control access to women. this is adding up and people are starting to realize the original language to these ultrasound bills, the confirmed consent as if it a woman doesn't understand

that the fetus could grow into a child. they're saying this is not an informed consent. this is about controlling women and that's what ties together in the past few weeks. >> is there a sense, starting with koman and the hearing that you're referencing, is there a sense up to this point women who were in favor of women's rights believed that there were compromises and nuances and that the right was going for restrictions or complications or things that any woman with her mind made up, it wouldn't matter to them anyway to a realization in the last month that it is an attempt to push things back to zero. push things back to 1925. >> when you go against cancer screenings, when you're going against birth control access suddenly you realize this is a concerted plan and these incremental things they're doing they're trying to turn back the clock for women, and also that finally republicans are being honest about how they feel about women. just in the debate about this bill the kinds of things that republican legislatures and

republican commentators said about rationale behind this bill, you've already been penetrated once. what's the problem. all these moments are moments of truth when you realize what their actual intentions are which are not about saving babies. they're really about punishing women. >> and the idea that you've already been penetrated once what's your problem is one step away from saying is one step of defending rape. >> john stewart was saying with the same people, these same people who like to say that taxes are rape. they like to use rape all the time except when it uses actual penetrate. >> thanks for coming in. >> thank you so much. >> for the really deep thinkers of the far right, the enemy is not abortions it's dr. seuss and girl scouts! coming up.

>> yet another layer to the new york city police department conviction that it has a right to target muslims not only in

new york but adjoining states. first, born the staff announceer john pardo on the job since 1944, and still live, afounding before turning 94 years old. his famous announcement, his fake announcement that says weekend update is brought to you by pussy whip, the dessert topping for cats. time marchs on. we begin as we always do with bridges peopling up. there goes the the explosion. inconnecting ohio and virginia, it had fall no one a state of disrepair. now if you need to travel it,.

>> adele has now won the mastercard british card album of the year. they didn't allow her enough time to make a speech. >> i'm so so proud to be here and i'm so proud to be in the room with all of you. >> i can't believe i'm about to cut you off. >> i'm so sorry. >> do not cut me off. i'll say you goodbye. >> hey, it's mia. albums sold, 7.3 million. flipping off the people who gave you the mastercard of the year award that didn't allow to you make a speech, priceless. now in sports, doing the intro to the big dayton xavier rifle deciding they should do the intro from the ground. down goes fraser.

despite the stool collapsing underneath him. mr. bates maintains his composure. and it was later revealed that a demolition crew from steubinville had blown up up the stool. templartime marchs on. attacking girl scouts. >>welcome to the war room. >>jennifer granholm joins current tv. a former two-term governor. >>make your voice heard. >>detremined to find solutions. >>that partnership in order to invest in our country is critical. >>driven to find the truth. >>how did romney get his groove back? >>fearless, independent and above all, politically direct. so you earn 50 percent more cash. if you're not satisfied with 50% more cash, send it back! i'll be right here waiting for it. who wouldn't want more cash?

[ insects chirping ] i'll take it. i'll make it rain up in here. [ male announcer ] the new capital one cash rewards card. the card for people who want 50% more cash. what's in your wallet? sorry i'll clean this up. shouldn't have made it rain.

>> we havee known that the

new york police department thinks studying muslim is probable cause to monitor monitor americans. the nypd has not just been monitoring new yorkers, but they authorized convert surveillance of muslims students in 16 universities throughout the northeast, and the mayor is branding those who disagree with his idea of regional pelosiing citizen not protecting the country. at campuses of yale, university of pennsylvania, others, plain clothed police officers monster blogs and even white water rafting trips, on monday, i'm write to go state in the strongest possible terms that police swans based on religion, nationality or peacefully expressed opinions are to ex-he against value and the united

states. outraged that it would go against new york's finest. mayor michael bloomberg. >> i don'twe have to keep this country safe. this is a dangerous place. make no mistake about it. it's very cute to go and blame everybody and say we should stay away from anything that smacks of intelligence gathering. >> how about just sticking to your own damn city. the aclu and the new york civil liberty union is calling for an investigation. thanks for your time, and gone gradalations on the award. >> thanks for having me, keith. >> get to the profiling part of this in a moment. but i'm concerned about the question. how is the nypd nationalize any covert work outside of new york state?

>> well, i don't think they have to justify it to anybody. they just do it. and they go where they see fit. we've been reporting on this since august, and they have not been working covertly in new jersey. they've gone as far as boston. in fact, they've gotten caught. >> yes, does the nypd seem to draw either literally or figuratively a line anywhere? who can investigate and where they can investigate them? >> no, we found in our reporting, in the documents that we have that the nypd feels they can investigate anybody. >> is the premise, are the students at the 16 universities some how connected to the city of new york directly or is that not even a requirement. >> i don't think that's a requirement. clearly from a documents that we've seen and the people we've interviewed who took part in these programs a requirement was that they were muslim. >> i'm going to guess that the aclu requests for self investigation is just going to be ignored by the mayor who can say what he said.

does any other law enforcement agency feel enough like its own toes have been stepped on by this that it would encourage investigating the nypd? >> well, i men, this has been brought to the attention of the justice department. congressman holt wrote a letter to the justice department and i believe approximately 34 members of congress has asked for an investigation. we are not clear if the justice department is doing anything about this. it doesn't appear to be any oversight in new york city. the mayor is essentially accountable to no one. there had been a few city council members who said we need to do something, they won't even plug in the idea to the inspector general, but it doesn't seem it will go anywhere anywhere. >> it's filled with people who are vieying to succeed the mayor. they won't rock the boat if

their own hide is on the rope. there is another sub basement involved in it. do you think this is it or is there even more to go? >> we've got--we're still investigating. we're still talking to people. we're still looking at documents. i mean, just as the new york story demonstrated today, i mean mean, the madrid did that and the mayor, cory booker had no idea they did that. he was outraged. even the governor of new jersey didn't know about it. when he was the stop law enforcer in new jersey. >> summarize that. >> the nypd, their demographics unit, paul brown, the police commissioner denied existing went out and mapped newark, the documents released today they mapped newark, nassau county, and suffolk county on long island, and they cataloged

muslim businesses, mosques and they mapped them as well. >> huh, goodness. and we're all paying for it in new york. adam goldman, investigative reporter of the associated press press. con gladalations on the award and series and. >> thank you very much. >> perhaps the most disturbing fact of that paranoia, there will be people who hear about that nypd program and will feel good about it, and then join the rest of us in dropping our jaws at the news that one commentator believes that a dr. seuss movie is harming the country and the threat comes from the girl scouts.

>> which is the greatest threat, a dr. seuss character or girl scouts of america. it depends on which right wing group you ask. and breitbart mash up video. the hint is, you're horrible.

with jennifer granholm. >>i am jenniffer granholm and you are in the war room. it's a beautiful thing. >>jennifer granholm on current tv. >>i'm a political junkie. this show is my fix. >>in politics, she was a gutsy leader. in cable news, she's a game changer. >>be afraid, be very afraid. now, the two term governor from michigan is reshaping the debate with a unique perspective and a forward-thinking approach. >>our goal is to bring you behind the scenes with access to stories that you've never seen before. >>she's a trailblazer determined to find solutions. >>one of the key components of a war room is doing a bit of opposition research. >>driven to find the thruth. >>i'm obsessed with the role of govenment. >>fearless, idependent and above all, politically direct. >>part of the mission here in our own war room is to help these candidates stay on track. make your voice heard.

>> lunatic fringe has found its new opponent dr. seuss. lou dobbs fears dr. seuss, next. sadly paranoia hardening of the arteries and bad breath are hardly exclusive to mr. dobbs. let's start with the bronze andy breitbart. today's sadness he lost twitter war to our own david shuster repeatedly denying the truth he and his attorneys missed the deadline in shirley sherrod's suit against him for having railroaded her out of her job at the department of agriculture: all of this brings us to our sixth slightly faster paced edition of andy breitbart's mashed up theater. >> you are animals.

>> you're horrible. >> behave yourself. >> you're horrible. >> behave yourself. >> you're horrible! >> you freak. you filthy freaks. >> you're horrible. >> you filthy, filthy, filthy filthy, murdering freaks! >> my apologize to molly shannon for dragging her and her movie superstar.into this. runner up, the the church of jesus christ of latter-day saints. the mormon whistle blower helen radkey said they did another mormon baptisms. recall the mormon church apologizing to simon viesenthal for baptizing his parents. but now someone has baptized anne fronk. yes, the 15-year-old dutch girl killed by the nazis in 1945.

helen radkey said this the ninth time that the mormons have baptized anne fronk since 1989. if anyone of this religious stuff is true, one hopes that at least this leaves her know, the head mormon. but our winner, bob morris. this is prove that we do not pay our elected officials enough money. the fort wayne representative wrote saturday that he carefully investigated one radicalized organization and found that it supported abortions and homosexuality and the girl scouts. it was the girl scouts who are a threat to the united states, and's not even talking about the well-known fact that if you unscrew a girl scout cookies you are left with two weapons. despite the fact that brian

bosma ridiculed morris by handing out girl scout cookie, morris will not only run unopposed, he's doubled down saying, my family and i took a view and we're staying by it. he removed his daughters from the girl scouts and his critics should do more research, where and how did he it. >> i encourage you to get on the internet and do your research regarding girl scouts of america, and you'll find many of the same findings. >> you found out about the radicalize girl scouts by carefully researching on that fountain of information the internet? google santorum. bob morris today's worst person in the world.

i just got the popular girls from the local middle school to follow me around. ew. seriously? so gross. ew. seriously? that is so gross. ew. seriously? dude that is so totally gross. so gross...i know. there's an easier way to save. geico. fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more.

the newest voice in cable news is on the new news network. >>jennifer granholm joins current tv. this former two term governor is politically direct. hey don't worry, e-trade's got a totally new investing dashboard. everything's on one page.

i'm watching you. oh yeah? well i'm watching you, watching him. [ male announcer ] try the new 360 investing dashboard at e-trade. >> you well, it's happening again. the hollywood he liberals are indoctrinating your kids. the liberals better watch their backs because lou dobbs knows what they're up to. last night he discussed one of biggest threats facing our children. cartoons. >> hollywood is once again trying to indoctrinate our children. two new films out this year plainly within an agenda, plainly demonizing the 1%, and espousing the virtue of green energy policies come what may. the president's liberal friends in hollywood targeting a younger demographic using animated movies to sell their agenda to children. >> look out for that demonizing. what has dobbs so upset?

i mean besides the gas? disney's "the secret world of arrietty"," angle animated japanese film of a family of four-inch tall people. who live beneath the floors of humans in order to survive. and universal's new adaptation of the dr. seuss story "the lorax"." they live among the trees as dobbs called it. rampant industrialism. where have we all heard this before, occupy wall street forever trying to pit the mickers against the takers and president obama talking about their fair share in dozens of speechers, since his state of the union just last month. >> after showing clips of both of the films, dobbs played sound bytes from the american saying that earn american should pay their fair share, i'm sure there

is a link between the two. this must have been what is on mary norto's mind when it was written in 1952! and a must have been on dr. seuss' mind when he penned "the lorax" in 1971! and there is a plan to fight back in this plan to create occu-toddlers. >> buy huge tubs of popcorn, ram them in your face. it's all made of paper you crinkling it up. go in the movie theaters and fight back against this lesson. >> that ought to teach a lesson to that movie employee who cleans up your mess. but there might be a far simpler explanation for dobbs' theory. he was upset that he wasn't cast as the lorax. because i think he has the look down.

>> clearly conservatives are not fans of the lorax. do we think there are dr. seuss books that they like. >> i heard they have the book so pervasive. they have their own dr. seuss of all the places you'll go. there is, are you my mother, if so, please don't abort me. and then my favorite one one fits, twofish two fish. but romney likes the grinch, but he skips over the end because it depresses him and instead, he imagines the grinch on the cayman islands. >> and horton hears a stock trip. >> and horton hears an insider trading tip. >> the lorax, the muppets and the girl scouts. and we laugh but during the mccarty era, the baseball team

cincinnati reds proactively changed their names to cincinnati red legs so no one would think they're communists. should we be worried about dickens, bugs bunny. >> dora the explorer. >> superman. >> without anything super, more deli than super. but dora the explorer is in big trouble because she was born and raised in america but lou dobbs believes she's a mexican alien because she insists on speaking spanish in public, and she's asking to be deported. >> this is a good time to mention this, did you know of lou dobbs' wife, her maiden name: i used to work with her. if anyone at home doesn't understand this. she's debby segura dobbs. >> oh, my god. >> exactly. it's a deep deep waters we're

entering in. some of the comments are not necessarily questioning climate change but more like a real hostile environment about the environment. it's one step further--don't you think, than it's usually is? don't they stop at some point now that they're saying real science allows us to flatten the earth, pave everything over and utilize all this stuff that we've been given. >> i said this months ago when herman cain was pre-tending to be relevant, the 2012 g.o.p. slogan is yes, we hate. these are people who are taking tips from franklin graham, hateful cracker. they've taken hate to a new level. who hates dr. seuss? green eggs and ham not my favorite book but the hate towards dr. seuss is ridiculous. and it's insane that lou dobbs is blaming the lorax and his mission on president obama. how is he responsible when at the time that book was written

he was a ten-year-old kid swinging off a monkey bars. he had nothing to do with that book. >> keep one story together. if it doesn't fit the timeline do not come and tell me that he wasn't born in this country but he influenced a book that was written nine years before his birth. and this reference to occu-toddlers. this is a gave away. a desperate attempt to stand at the ocean and not just push the tide back but not ever see the tide. it's the future they're fearing. >> he doesn't under what occupy stand for. they don't understand what occupy is trying to do is ensure a future to these kids that you're trying to disenfranchise. if they occupy anything, it should be a corner because rick santorum is right. satan is in america and he's wearing a sweater vest. >> as always, good to see you. >> so nice to be back. >> that's "countdown" for this
