>> my point was i was listening to the guy before you. >> bill press. >> bill press. and they touched on the standard your ground law, you know, and i think the stand your ground law doesn't really apply to, you know mr. zimmerman. if anything, it would have stood for mr. martin. >> right. that's right. >> i'm ape concealed carry holder and competitive shooter and something you don't realize -- i haven't heard anybody from our community call these shows other than political people. and, i believe, in the right to defend yourself and carry guns and shoot guns, but on the average, even a policeman, he might practice, you know, if you're lucky twice a year they might do a qualification. >> right. >> you know, and here's this guy, he decides to come out of his house to follow somebody around, he's got, obviously, some sort of police, could be, rambo complex. >> yep. >> yep.

>> and now he's got a gun. >> mario, that's why there's everything wrong with this story, there's something wrong with the law, there's obviously a racial element. >> here's my point to it is that he decides to come out of his house and follow this guy. now, this guy, walking down the street, that feels himself being threatened, being followed, he turns around and confronts him. now this guy that has a gun if they get in an altercation, this fella has a gun that someone can take from him. having a gun doesn't necessarily make you super safe. it gives you an option but it doesn't -- i mean, if you train and practice and all of that, i mean, bad stuff happens in florida all the time. >> i know. all right, mario, yeah, i read some study if you're carrying a gun you're more likely to think the other person, somebody else has a gun as well. that's why this is a stupid law. it's like oh, skittle, sorry. >> also a lot of people who feel the need to carry a concealed weapon all the time are already paranoid. and they're probably people

who -- the last people who should have guns. but there are a lot of decent people who carry concealed weapons and that's fine. but this guy obviously wasn't. >> once again, what happened with the police work, i don't know if you heard this this morning, a woman who she and her roommate witnessed the final moments of trayvon martin wife said that george zimmerman had his hands pressed on his back and never tried to help him. they've not interviewed. he's had two incidents. they're like, oh, he's squeaky clean. >> really shoddy police work here. worse than shoddy i think -- >> that's why i put the two really's in front of it. >> david in boca raton florida hi, david. >> how are you stephanie. >> good. >> congratulations. i'm a young black man as well, i'm 22. i wanted to call in and say i

think this trayvon martin case really speak high levels what young black men have to go through especially with the hip hop era and the propagations of what you see on tv about black men, you know, we don't always see president obama. and it kind of makes me feel sad because, you know, my mom growing up has to tell me that you know, if you were to get pulled over by a police officer even if you're on the right and they're wrong, do whatever they say, you know, don't look -- don't look threatening if you go -- >> try not to look so black. >> that's what gerardo said this weekend. >> and i teased who i talked to yesterday and forgot to say. i may be too old for tv. 29 minutes -- >> will you tell us after this break? >> yes, i will.

me is the end of the story. there's no longer a threat to him. there's no longer any imminent threat and, in fact, the complicated thing for me is what if trayvon martin was standing his ground? doesn't he get to? could he have used deadly force after being pursued by a, you know, whitish man in a pickup truck? which might have some implications for a young black man walking through a neighborhood? so who do you think felt more justifiably threatened, the guy with the gun and a pickup truck or trayvon martin? >> zimmerman's trying to claim he got punched in the nose or something. even if he did land a punch it's against an armed guy pursuing him, he's on tape. >> right, right, that's right. so what you have, you know, what if a tragic situation is you have two people who were standing their ground, who both felt threatened although i don't know why zimmerman felt threatened when he could have driven away.

>> excuse me, the point i just made jim, if he landed a punch he wasn't armed. if he'd had a gun he would -- why deadly force?ú that's the other thing. why not -- shoot someone in the kneecap i suppose, if you're going to go down the list of what should have happened. >> in his defense he was wearing a hoodie. to jerry rivers that's -- >> it's like clockwork you can count the ridiculous things that people on right are going to say. >> i mean, just -- there were people -- there was somebody this weekend who was saying, well, do we know why he was in the neighborhood? >> yes. >> and i was like -- >> he lived there. >> visiting his dad. i wanted to say well, he was obviously there to bait a gun nut into shooting him. isn't that obvious? mission accomplished. >> on cue here's newt gingrich.

>> not a question of who that young man looked like. any young american of any ethnic brand should be safe, period. we should all be horrified no matter what the ethnic background. is the president suggesting if it was a white would have been shot it would ok. >> he is that what the president meant, seriously? >> it's "the hunger games" out there for black youth in this country. the idea that this is not -- that there's not a racial component to this is ludicrous. it's ignorant. you know, it's ignorance of the worst kind because it's putting blinders to what the world is, what the nation is. >> and rude, how are you ever going to solve the problem if you don't look at all the pieces, whether it's the gun law and the rainfallism. when you have 911 tapes with him using racial terms and a racial slur -- >> now, now, now, he says, a friend of his says what he really said was he called him a goon. did you hear him? that's a new one. he called him a goon. >> punk. >> what's the difference? >> he said a goon is a term of endearment. >> he used the term of

endearment before he shoots somebody. >> prince tried that on me, he said i said you're a are you not. >> if i was in an altercation with somebody or somebody who was yelling me and said you're an f'ing goon i would have stood there confused for for a moment. what? i'm not a guy with a pipe about to break your knee, what are you talking about? >> candy crowley played tapes gingrich and santorum criticizing the president's comment. the republican primary has been a circus show, clown show, i don't know many would share that reaction. the republican primary has become a circus, clown show, comments. clear an investigation going on. so i think these comments are really hard to stomach. i mean, it just -- it really is incredible. you just think there's no low they won't go to in this

primary. >> even lindsey graham on state of the union yesterday on a network that shall not be named condemned the remarks of the republicans. he said lindsey graham said we all know there's a racial component to this. >> would you like to hear it now that you brought it up. >> why yes. >> here's lindsey graham on centimeter other network. >> we all know there's a racial component this and when the president highlights it i don't think it adds a whole lot but nobody suggests the president's insensitive to a 17-year-old if he had been white. i think the criticism of our guys was a little offbase and i don't think the president added a whole lot by interjecting himself into it. >> good for him. >> wow. >> i'd like to point out your deadon lindsey graham impression. awesome. >> those comments are rep preminutesble, gingrich in the last throes of his career. he could go out with a shred of

new york, this is about justice a crazy man who shot a kid who wasn't bothering anybody. you don't have to be black to know that's wrong. so, yeah, if you ask me, this has transcended race. which i think is the good news. let's go to, well, ken in cleveland, you're on the "the stephanie miller show," kenny pick. >> happy current tv to everybody. >> thank you. >> i wouldn't help but notice the scheduling directly after talking liberally with stephanie miller, they're going to be broadcasting the movie "network." >> yes. >> get up right now and go to the window, open it and stick your head out and yell "i'm as mad as hell and i'm not going to take this anymore." >> set your dvr to talking liberally. >> yes. and i want to say i hope this comes out a lot better than the end of "network." >> if history is any guide it

straddling his body and things of that nature. i sure as hell would be punching and fighting my way out -- >> jessica why didn't they interview -- they didn't interview his girlfriend talking to him on the phone. >> this is sick. and i'm a white person and it has really made me open my eyes and think, oh, my gosh, i've profiled, you know, not going around certain streets because there's gang members and things like that. and i -- my son has even asked us questions about this, mom mom -- what does this all mean and my son, 12 years old said, this is wrong, this is so wrong mom, why aren't they arresting him? so if a 12-year-old can see that, it just makes me wonder what the hell were those police thinking? >> yep, that's exactly -- that's why the president's response was deadon, it was as a parent, as a human. the fact that there was a racial aspect, the president's the one

that injected it. michael in jersey you're on "the stephanie miller show," hey mic. >> hi, how are you. good show. >> thank you. >> i'm just puzzled by a couple things. did the police actually interview or -- mr. zimmerman at all or check the blood on his clothes, gun residue on his hands, did they do any police work? >> go ahead. >> just one other thing real quick, i'm of mixed race background. one time my mother -- grew up in a place 90% white. anybody mad at you say something racial. >> cenk uygur next from "the young turks" next on "the stephanie miller show."

>> i love the new tv show. i was saying and not to be a big stuckup and i am but -- yeah. >> goes without saying. >> exactly. really and truly before they did it with us, i was saying current is doing actual progressive television, it's people like you, people like keith, you know, the corporate structure, you're too good for it. i'm just telling you. >> well, thank you, i don't know about that, but no, look they're not playing. they really give you independence. so you've got that to look forward to. >> the fact that i'm still on the air after an hour province that point -- proves that point. >> it's absolutely true night and day from the corporate structure. all kidding aside. in the corporate structure there's a lot of pressure in a lot of different ways for sponsors, for in the case of politics et cetera, there's a big corporation up that has all the deals with the government, et cetera, whereas we don't have any of that worry so they just let us rip on current. >> you are one of the only humans -- in fact, i think

you're the only human i've ever met that has turned down a television show but because of principle. i mean, you know, that must make mitt romney's head just spin. >> i don't understand this principle thing. >> what does that mean, can't they just change? >> i guess so, yeah, that's -- it's true. and look, the thing is i had a fallback which was really, really made it ease injury for me so my fallback was "the young turks," our online show that's doing so well so it didn't take as much courage since i had that great, great audience to come back to and look the reason i got into this is because i wanted to do an honest show that, you know, tells people the reality in the country. if i couldn't do that then there isn't any point, i could have just stayed a lawyer a long time ago and made a lot more money. >> and just had people still hate you just -- >> right. they hate me plenty right now. >> for entirely different reasons.

we were saying when we filled in for imus on mississippi nbc we were -- mississippi nbc. there's no way they would go with the show, it's too risky. current is progressive. how is joe scarborough progressive? three hours. no offense to him. >> no, no, offense to him. [laughter] >> and, no, he's not -- of course he's not progressive. he's not -- you know, what drives me crazy is when they describe joe as some sort of, you know, mainstream or something, no, he's -- he's a conservative guy. and i don't think -- he doesn't hide that, he's right wing. >> right. >> so mississippi nbc has some great shows -- msnbc has great shows. their morning is completely conservative, i would say in some ways more conservative than fox news. they take mainstream ideas as though that's what everybody should thing a lot of people in

msnbc but straight news. >> hand it to somebody completely inappropriate in every way for morning television, the fact that this is the longest we've ever been on tv, almost an hour and 15 minutes now. yeah, i don't know, somewhere i hear al gore sighing. >> (sighing) stephanie i really think this isn't going to work out um, i made a terrible mistake. >> i'm expecting that call at any moment. >> i think tipper wants to put a warning label on your show. >> what have -- have you -- i don't know, sometimes i'm still surprised that i can be surprised at the right wing. were you surprised at some of these reactions to the president's comments on trayvon martin? >> yes and no. i thought they'd leave it alone because it sounds like it would be such a losing strategy for them to go in that direction, on the other hand, i know they can't help themselves especially newt gingrich. >> right.

>> there isn't anything that newt gingrich hasn't called, you know, reprehensible, historically terrible. he loves throwing the word historical around. >> because he's a historian. >> and an amateur pailianologist so he tells me. so when he went in that direction and went and took the extra step of saying, hey, you know what, does this mean the president wouldn't care as much if it was a white boy that was killed? it's like whoa, whoa, newt gingrich. >> i'm sure he'll say that today. what i meant to say, it wouldn't matter if a white kid was shot, that's what i meant to say. >> that's why i always say we have to go super hard against the republicans. today there's an article in politico the democrats should get aggressive on gas prices, to which i say, of course, you should always get aggressive. they go you a million miles per hour, you might say my kid looks

like trayvon martin, i feel horrible about this kid dying they say reprehensible et cetera, et cetera. >> i mentioned this earlier but sometimes you have to -- really did he say that he louisiana audience why he understands why americans might think he's muslim. sensitive to people who are not christian or jews. why would a president believe ease muslim. it's not because they're stupid, because they watch the things i described by you. he doesn't explain what behaving like a muslim mean. stop acting muslimy, mr. president. >> he might say i can understand why you think he's a muslim because i insinuated he's a muslim. if you watch things on television you would think he's a muslim. >> i take his president's word if he says he doesn't do that but i'm saying maybe he bows to

mecca in the oval office. >> funny you mentioned the rug surprised they haven't come up with a rug conspiracy. why did they change the rug? >> why did he replace george bush's sunny optimistic rug with a rug? >> george bush could not stop talking about that rug. >> if i wet myself, no one will know ha, ha. >> thank you for joining us in the midst of a santorum surge it's a hazard, a biohazard to go outside. >> what's worse is he's surging from bottom. >> dragging him down with us. >> once you get in the fort it's all downhill. >> all the listeners want to play along. listener gain, listener jean has

26 states have contested the law saying the mandate is an overreach of federal legislation. investigators will point out however, that everybody needs healthcare and those who don't have healthcare insurance are a burden on the entire system. early reports out of washington saying that proreform advocates outnumbering the steps on the supreme court. people have been lined up since friday trying to get a spot to listen in on arguments. there will be no cameras in the courtroom but you can tune in online, supreme court.com will have audio and transcripts up they say by 2:00 p.m. eastern time this afternoon. and the white house is fully embracing the term "obama care," i'm personally not the a fan of the phrase and facebook.com/obama care has been launched by the white house. stephanie miller coming up, stay tuned.

and they understand people say controversial things and that's one of the reasons they're on it and i think advertisers give talk radio incredible wide playing field and they realize you know, sometimes people are going to call up and say, oh you shouldn't advertise on that -- that show or he was so offensive. 95, 97% of the time say thank you for your concerns we're going to keep advertising. the rush limbaugh thinking we're looking at 3%. his comments and his smear campaign was so far over the line -- >> i agree. >> -- that corporate america has said, you know what, we think you're right. and limbaugh lost another advertiser just today. so i think, again, i think advertisers know what they're getting into when they buy talk radio, they know it's going to be controversial and partisan and they get it but every once in a while they see something, they hear something, they say we cannot be associated with that and i think this is one of those rare times. >> i think dr. laura crossed

that line although she took herself off the radio nobody -- she was also screaming about the first amendment rights she left her own multimillion dollar radio show. eric, i'm guessing news bust ter has already sent a clip from something from today's show to show advertisers. >> let them send it around and toyota will look at it and say oh, that's interesting good-bye and gm will look at it and they'll all look it, unless you say something unsanely stupid for three days and attack a private citizen in an exceptional way i think you're ok. i think common-sense applies folks on the right have a problem with it. >> right. as you know, it also gets, i mean, i'm talking to you from a clear channel studio, ktla is los angeles is my flagship channel. can't make its mind about free speech. >> trouble with that. >> direct attack on first

amendment right to free speech. i disagree. i don't think anyone is attacking rush's first amendment. >> no, that has been -- that was sort of the week three spin, he's being censored, he's under attack, "media matters" are farrists and trying to shut people up. none of that is true, the marketplace is, woulding, the marketplace is talking and deciding about the rush limbaugh show. and, you know, if anyone's trying to shut people up it's rush limbaugh who tried to intimidate sandra fluke into not coming forward and trying to intimidate other women who want to talk about healthcare and contraception in a public and fairway. >> and eric, you make, in your great column this week, make a point you and i have talked about and i also think is part of this and i would say to sean handity, if he's man enough to come on -- >> sean. but i think, you know, i also think that he's a good friend of rush limbaugh's, you've talked about all his right wing enablers, i want to say why didn't you say that's wrong.

rush, i love you, you're a great broadcaster, this was too far, too much. >> you can count on one hand the number of prominent conservatives who have done that. it seems so obvious, so logical yet take that 10 seconds, you know, type that two-sentence or take 90 seconds on your show and say, you know what, rush, this was wrong, over the line and now i'm basically going to defend you for the next 10 days. they couldn't even do that. they couldn't even make that very common sense conclusion that he went insanely over the line. >> and as you point out, eric, and piled on with the name-calling against her. >> yeah, again, we've talked about this before, rush claims he made a two-word mistake, he shouldn't have used those two words. you know, rush made a mistake for three days and, you know almost nine hours and then, on that saturday he woke up and decided, oh, my gosh, i chose the wrong words. this -- and this goes back to why we're seeing this effect and why this is really the 3%

example when advertisers are heading for the doors. it was relentless, it was personal disgusting -- >> against a private citizen. all that stuff. right wing world, or rename it, proving our point. bill o'reilly, here we go, on cue. >> the far left demanding censorship, that is the subject of this evening's talking points memo. used to be liberals are the ardent facts of free speech. the aclu is in the business to promote free speech or so they say. now they're support for censorship. simply put they do not want to hear opposing points of view. there's something fascist about this, shut down your opposition, don't let them speak punish people who support them. in every totalitarian state in the world that's tactic number one, silence the opposition. >> he's -- yeah, first of all, defend your fascist self eric

boehlert. >> dam it. i guess his take is if you urge advertisers to leave or if you sort of promote activism in terms of a boycott you're a fascist. this, of course, is bill o'reilly who urged the boycott of the entire country of france and went after pepsi when it was sponsoring ludacris, that went on forever and ever. bill o'reilly has tried to get people to stop buying products than most people on tv. either he doesn't understand what censorship i think he does or playing stupid on a nightly basis. the whole conservative press has taken up this mantle of censorship. last time i checked "media matters" did not have executive privileges in the federal government. we can't censor anyone. only the government can censor anyone. and this fascism thing is, you know, it makes people laugh like we just did. >> well, listen a goose stepper like you would think that, eric

boehlert. kimberly gilfoy of fox news. >> he went willingly eagerly to make comments and attack anyone on the right who wasn't making comments toward women and a complete advocate of leadership and showing respect of the man. he's the president of the united states. not a talk radio show host. not a television journalist. show us the man that you are. show us that you're a man of integrity, that respects women that puts women first and not campaign dollars. >> what -- what the hell is she talking about. >> talking about not giving bill marr's money back because he made a comment about sarah palin. it's amazing these false analogies. >> it's still about bill marr, who gave money to a pac and it would be illegal for president obama to order any pac to send any money back but they're trying to obfuscate that whole thing. but, yeah, the false analogies and the false comparisons,

that's what they have filled up the last two or three weeks doing, rather than saying, rush, we love you, this was stupid. it was -- everyone does it, everyone does it, you know people -- not everyone does it and, again, this is why it struck a nerve. no one else has ever done this really. >> well, and this is, by the way, what i said to sean handity i will defend rush as a liberal and a woman i think boycotts hurt all of us in the radio business. if you admit everybody that glek, since clear channel replaced me with him i love it, don't you? eric boehlert remains in the side car as we continue right wing world. kids carbonite, do you not have it, you're at your computer at home, you get a advisors virus you lose all of those files if

>> they don't deserve to get shot for it. >> why inject that in that? >> fox hasn't really seemed to know what to do with the story particularly in prime time, very little coverage at all, you know, this is a story that has morphed into a national discussion about, you know, guns and the law and race and typically, you know, fox news conservative press, they love this stuff. and they jump right in. but this -- the story doesn't fit the right narrative for them because of who the victim was an unarmed teen and things like that and so her recalleddo was one of the first times anyone tried to jump in and the consequences were just disastrous. >> right. >> he was ridiculed for days so it's interesting, again, they don't really know what to make of the story. i think when obama became part of the story it was easy for them, oh, ok, we hate obama so we'll attack them. >> there's obama being all black again saying things about black people and things.

i mean, it's just -- it's amazing, i guess i shouldn't say amazing that gingrich and santorum, right, cues the president of politicizing and racializing this. >> and so did the rest of the conservative press if you looked over the weekend. the bad guys in this are al sharpton and barack obama, i mean, if you read the conservative press this weekend. that was it. and that's what they're most comfortable doing, attacking those people. but they're still really not sure what to do with this. they love these gun control loves, they love stand your ground but how do you really just say this is great, you know, this is a great story for us? it's not they don't know what to do with it which leads to geraldo. >> neglect has a radio show -- neglect has a -- glenn beck has a radio show, they'll eat each other, republicans. >> i think everybody is learning don't pick a fight with matt drudge. >> i think everybody is learning

that. >> yes, don't pick a fight with matt drudge. >> you don't spit, tug on superman's cape. you don't mess around with drudge. >> you don't go to war who buys ink by the barrel. that's burying rick santorum. >> we can sit this one out in the hammock. >> he sounds tired. >> the idea -- it's sort of funny to hear people talk about matt drudge and these larger than life terms. he's been backing mitt romney, obviously conservatives have been talking about it for months and months and once they got mitt romney, he's limping along across the finish line and, you know, whatever, if they think matt drudge is going to be a player in this election, he's going to have about as big a role in this election as he did in 2008 which is almost nothing. >> obama couldn't stop this leg of the keystone pipeline if he

wanted to, he's simply there. he's glomming on to it. it's like trying to be present when the 10 commandments are written on the burning bush and claiming he wrote them. i wouldn't be surprised if obama says i've laid more pipe of any president since president clinton. >> i get it was that a [beep] joke? >> yeah. >> ok. at least he's learned his lesson. >> this is in reference to obama supporting part of the keystone pipeline and so conservatives have been yelling and screaming that we need this and then they get it and what do they do, rush spends his time attacking the president for doing something that he agrees with. >> yeah. >> he's doing it wrong. >> it's just -- i mean, it's obama derangement syndrome personified. >> he's. >> let's talk about mike huckaby. >> this is a baby that's a real problem child and it's going to

create problems for businesses, individuals and families for the country economically. it can be repealed but it means you're going to have to get a majority in the senate and a republican president. >> needs a sweep. >> does this mean that they're going to drown it in the bathtub. >> you've got to look at the fear mongering two years ago eric. >> yeah. wasn't that great? they claimed right after the 2010 election, they announced healthcare was done, it was finished, no way it could pass and four months later they freaked out when it did pass and they still convenient come to a resolution. >> absolutely. out of time. see you next week. eric boehlert, "media matters." right back on "the stephanie miller show." is on the new news network. >>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.

this is countdown south carolina. forgot the name of the show p.m.

." stephanie miller. >> you can't use that type of language on tv. >> what are you talking about. >> you can't say [beep] on television. >> [beep] >> oh, dear. >> this hour of this filthy show is called angel fall, the beginning of the adventure available on amazon, www.susanee.com for more information. >> there a betting pool as to how many times my mom has said "oh, dear" this morning. >> we should have put cameras in her house just to get her reaction. >> i know, right? >> reaction cam. >> get on that. mike in bloomington, minnesota my gosh, you do have small boobs, i'm in my sports bra because i'm on my way to the spinning class. do you mind.

>> you're in our house paparazzi. >> the camera just turned to look at you. that was funny. >> all right. can't you get a better angle. >> legend in detroit, michigan you're on "the stephanie miller show," hi, legend. >> steph, how are you going? >> good. >> very cute, welcome to current tv as far as the martin case goes i want to know how come if the guy was carrying the gun on the job when they told him not to he wasn't arrested right then. it was that kind of a conspiracy right, then, or a start of one and -- >> exactly, that's not suspicious, first of all, that the 911 operator tells him, sir, we don't need you to do that and the kid ends up shot dead and there's not any investigation of that. >> they tested the dead body for drugs and alcohol but not this guy zimmerman. >> melissa in oklahoma on the

trayvon case hi, melissa. >> thanks for being the glass half full and not half empty. >> we're the happy liberal show. >> i was upset right after zimmerman was supposedly protected. a newscast tried to come out and find out some facts and one of his friends who was protecting him pulled out a gun on the newscast and the crew. >> wow. >> man, it's just ridiculous. this is 2012. are we back in poverty years 1930s, 1920s? >> we keep regressing a decade every -- jeff in florida you're on "the stephanie miller show," hi, jeff. >> hey sustain. >> hi. >> i've got two comments, i hope you'll give me time because i am one of the right wingers calling in just so you know. >> oh, my god. >> (screaming). >> you can't scare me i'm

related to many of you. >> i heard you say that, that's true. nobody ingrained it on me, i'm 29, i chose it on my own. >> i'm so sorry. >> flynn way, as far as the trayvon robinson case goes i agree with everyone your call irs are saying, you know, this is wrong. a child is dead. >> so why did the newt gingrichs and the rick santorums said the president is politicizing it. >> they're wrong. >> i think i brought to the light. >> that will lead to my next comment if you let me go there. i listen to npr and rush and handity, i've heard you on handity and you do quite well. >> thank you. >> you're quite welcome. stephanie, i'm sick of all -- of everything, i'm tired of it. >> all of us. >> no, not you i enjoy the personalities, i enjoy talk

radio. what i'm saying is the newt gingrichs the rick santorums all of us conservatives can't be stuck in one box. >> that's right. >> i'm in my 20s, i mean, you know, i live my life, i do stuff that if anybody knew about i probably wouldn't be able to call myself a conservative. but at the end of the day we're you will athe same. >> jeff, look it, it pains me to say this but sean handity talked for an hour the other day because we like each other personally, he hates everything i stand for politically but what can you say, he called me when my dog died, we both have giant dogs, and he knows -- this was years ago and it was a very human, nice thing to do and then he offered to buy me a dog and we got in a fight because i'm like a liberal, i rescue dogs, i don't buy -- it ended badly as most things do with men. but anyway, you know, jeff that's all i'm saying is that i think this case, the trayvon

martin case, there's a human element that like you're saying right now transcends partisanship, doesn't it? >> of course, i have a child i'm a single father, my wife left me with the child. whether a child is black or hispanic or whatever color when a child gets shot at 14 years old eating a bag of skittles, we all know it's wrong. rick santorum can say whatever he wants, newt gingrich is kay whatever he wants to try to please the racists and the bible thumpers in our party but my main point is and the main reason why i wanted to call in and talk to you is just that i'm literally at a point now where i don't even think i can talk to progressives at a level anymore where we can even accomplish anything. >> we just did, didn't we? >> but on the street stephanie the vitriol. >> i know, that's why you and i are doing our part.

we also agree on one thing and that is your ex-wife sucks. >> yeah, she does. >> love you jeff, let's go to nathan in california, you're on "the stephanie miller show," hey, nathan. >> hey, i just wanted to make a comment about the rush thing. i had noticed, you know, when it first happened i went on the fcc's website and they have a section about shock jock hosts and it says obscene speech is not protected by the first amendment and not allowed to be broadcast at any time. >> but what he said is not concerned obscene, the fcc seven dirty words that george carlin made famous -- >> it's obnoxious. >> it's -- >> and if you pronounce fcc a certain way it's obscene. >> the bill marr thing is not a good analogy, he doesn't have the fcc, he's on cable. >> and he's not a democrat. >> and the something they're talking about is something he

said on a stage show, a standup show. >> definitely not covered by the fcc. >> we were talking about -- oh, 2 years old, healthcare is. >> woogy woogy woogy. >> chuck e. cheese. ball jump. >> but that soup of bacteria yuck, no, thank you. hmm, hmm hmm. >> just inincredible, who two years ago, passages healthcare reform is armageddon because it will ruin our country. >> any random republican. >> that's actually right. john boehner. >> that's about as random as it gets. >> healthcare reform -- did i see a picture of him crying on st. patrick's day, what was he crying about? >> he was crying because there was some irish music playing. >> give me the cabbage. >> all his orange ran on to his green tie. it was a mess. >> it just made an ugly dark

brown color. >> who said healthcare reform will destroy the country because in the next year or so america will have to dramatically cut the military because we can't pay for it? >> mitch mcconnell, the talking turtle. >> frothy, former senator rick santorum. >> who said there will be no insurance industry left in three years, who said that? >> paul ryan. >> no, senator palko burn, senator from oklahoma. who said this is the end of prosperity in america forever, the end of america, as you know, it? >> mahatma gained i. >> no, glenn beck said it. >> close. >> i have a message for you, you're going to die soon. when you restrict the ability of the primary caregivers in this country to do what's best for their patients we're limiting

their life expectancy. >> dr. kevorkian. >> load the liar canon. romney celebrating healthcare reform anniversary by lying about it. >> what's it like to be a liar, do you like being a liar with pants constantly on fire? >> on the second anniversary of healthcare reform mitt romney says anything to distance himself from the fact that his healthcare plan is the exact same thing. he told at least three whoppers in louisiana just this past week or weekend. he said the -- a recent congressional budget office report concludedded the cost of the law have doubled. >> you, sir, are a liar. liar, liar, your pants are on fire. >> cited a discredited study claiming 30% of employers will stop offering insurance as a result of the law. >> you're a liar, you always were. >> and insisted the catholic church would be required to offer birth control to its
