called called sandra a whore and a slut. >> by the way, hooch, my personal favorite. but as you wrote, fox incited herman cain to talk about hilary rosen. >> yeah, fox went bonkers. so they took this germ of a story which were the hilary rosen comments which there was a controversy, but at the end of the wake it was let's have herman cain come on and talk about well's rights. they kept trying to conflaet her comment into she is vice president or something. >> right. >> on fox they said someone who is perceived to be close to president obama. >> yeah, sure.

>> that's half of democratic washington. >> yeah. >> there is no war on bitches. [ laughter ] >> and did you hear is unfortunate audio? >> i all thes like the idea that people who are receiving welfare assistance have a responsibility of working. in my state we made good progress in that regard following the days of the welfare reform act, but when i was governor, 85% of the people on a form of welfare assistance in my state had no work requirement. and i said even if you have a child two years of age. you need to go to work. and people said that's heartless, and i said no no, i'm willing to spend more giving day care to allow those parents to go back to work. i want the individuals to have the dignity of work. >> such good news for ann romney don't you think?

>> that sheds some light of again where republicans are. on issues of moms and work and the whole conversation that ought to be taking place. poor moms who don't work have been the target of republican attacks for decades. so this notion that moms who don't work are just this close to sainthood just doesn't add up. >> and it goes to hilary rosen's real point. this is about economic inequality, which is exactly the point. as you say, mitten's tax recurrence must be astounding. talk about income inequality he is only releasing the last couple of years? i mean can you imagine? >> yeah, during the republican debates one of the most awkward moments every time it came up was his republican challengers

would ask him about his tax returns, and he clearly did not have any answer in terms of why he hadn't released them, when he was going to release them will he actually release them. so that has been a legitimate issue since the beginning of the campaign, and i don't think one or two sentences from hilary rosen is going to change that. >> oh, i don't pay taxes that's for the little people. >> yeah, if he is running on his record of the businessman, what is he afraid of? >> well, it's interesting -- >> again this is part of the ongoing media debate or it should be, he's running on his record as a businessman, and he hasn't had a job for a decade. >> yeah. >> so again -- >> he only made about $20 million last year. it's hard to even live on that. >> and the speaking fees those just change -- that was money he

found in the cushions. [ laughter ] >> by the way i eric i quoted your piece last week hurt feelings of the fox news candidates. [ baby crying ] >> yeah, it's funny because the campaign started and there was just a whole green room of fox, you know talkers deciding who wants to run? how could it be decided he wasn't going to run because he loved his fax paycheck? so the primary ends santorum and gingrich and payen are basically at war with fox news. and roger ails was saying gingrich is never coming back to fox. sarah palin never had a chance to be president.

and rick santorum will never return to fox. once you are outside the tent you are outside forever, apparently that goes to the republican candidates as well. >> yeah. let's dive into the right-wing. here is a good idea. let's ask rush limbaugh what he thinks about the war on women. >> blabs was on tv today. i didn't see it. what they are telling me is that they ironed the curls out of her hair and darkened it a bit, and it looks -- it's a total makeover of debbie wasserman schultz in the aftermath of the hilary rosen controversy. >> not one to be talking about

hair. >> that was some deep commentary. >> it was. but it shows about how deep his commentary goes about women. rush obviously has issues himself with women and powerful women. >> you think? >> hilary rosen makes a comment to debbie wasserman schultz goes to a hairdresser? >> right. that's easy to connect. >> that's how those gals talk. whatever. >> let's listening to the soothing tones of dana lohse. >> you want to talk about a war on women tony cats. >> obama hates women. if he liked women, he would buy michelle obama better clothes. i don't understand why he hates women so much. someone should take him out and question him seriously about why

he doesn't like women or care about women. i'm serious about the clothing. what the hell is going on here? does he give a holy damn or not? >> wow! i missed the name of that guest. >> tony katz. >> oh wow. eric you want to start on that? >> and what is up with her hair? oh, my god. >> in a segment on war on women, dana lohse hosts a guest who ridicules michelle. >> some extreme misogynist. thanks for playing making our point exactly, dana. >> michelle obama has been the target of an unpressdented smear

campaign. >> yeah. >> and what is this obama hates women. >> yeah. >> frankly if you go on the comment sections and read these blogs they are talking about how obama hates women, and his marriage is a sham -- >> sure. >> so to have this on dana lohse's talk show is really disgusting. >> you sounded like i winded you on that one. you can recover in the side car. kids i don't buy anything if it's on the interweb. >> we noticed. >> what is the place of going places. i hate those -- what do they call them? the parking structures in malls? no, i'm not doing it. >> as clumsily as you drive. >> yes. if you are not selling your stuff on line, you are missing a

thoughts on the war on women, specifically about the restrictions on abortions that a lot of the southern states have put on trying to get a free -- not a free, but a safe and legal abortion. i think it's more than that. if the right-wing had their way, they would want it legal for only white women to get abortions. because 54% of abortions are obtained by white women and girls. so i think it's a lot more insidious than they just want to take away women's rights. i think if they could go back and cheat -- prevent the whites from being a minority, i think that's where they are going. >> hum. that's a little con spirspiratorconspirator.
