if you have copd like i do you know how hard it can be to breathe and what that feels like. copd includes chronic bronchitis and emphysema. spiriva helps control my copd symptoms by keeping my airways open a full 24 hours. plus, it reduces copd flare-ups. spiriva is the only once-daily inhaled copd maintenance treatment that does both. and it's steroid-free. spiriva does not replace fast-acting inhalers for sudden symptoms. tell your doctor if you have kidney problems glaucoma, trouble urinating, or an enlarged prostate. these may worsen with spiriva. discuss all medicines you take, even eye drops. stop taking spiriva and seek immediate medical help if your breathing suddenly worsens your throat or tongue swells you get hives, vision changes or eye pain, or problems passing urine. other side effects include dry mouth and constipation.
3:16 pm
nothing can reverse copd. spiriva helps me breathe better. does breathing with copd weigh you down? ask your doctor if spiriva can help. and we don't stick to party lines. >>people who buy politicians got to cover their bets. >>we are the investigators fiercely independent, and we don't hold back. >>we're here because we're independent and that's what we love. >>...and we don't do talking points. >>i think the hypocrisy is so blatant. >>and above all... and there's only once place you'll find us. >>weeknights on current tv.

3:19 pm
we didn't know anything about that in the '60s. homos, no! it is a little weird in that you kind of go is that offensive? maybe. >> if you support gay rights that makes you gay. >> stephanie: because for parts of the country that's not a compliment. that's the problem. all right. dave in minneapolis. you're on "the stephanie miller show." hi dave. >> yeah, mama. sure a nice show you put on. >> stephanie: for sure, you betcha. >> it was a hot patootie. it was absolutely fantastic. >> stephanie: good to see you at the q&a thanks for not fleeing the interview.

3:20 pm
very bizarre setting we had to put up with. but i brought my partner. he had never heard you before. he had never -- only when i told him, i think he doubted half of what was true. but afterwards, he went she was really funny. the whole group, they were great but i just got one question. why does she lay down on the floor so much. >> stephanie: i'm napping. >> caller: that's the only position she's used to most of her life. >> stephanie: oh, dave louise. >> you were so teeny tiny. i wrapped my arms around you twice. >> stephanie: you're such a big huggy bear. new partner is cute. way to go. let's go to mike in chicago. hey, mike, welcome. >> caller: steph hey mooks i talked to you guys since you've taken over current. >> stephanie: we have taken over current. it was a hostile takeover. >> caller: the best news, no one
3:21 pm
talked about it. bush, cheney and rumsfeld were found guilty of war crimes in malaysia in kuala lumpur. no one has been talking about this. let me read this to you. the second kuala lumpur war crimes tribune alfound bush, cheney rumsfeld and all of the legal advisors guilty of war crimes. at this point, the trial held in malaysia's capital city featured testimony by people who were tortured and at this point they can go forward to the international criminal court the united nations and the security council. additionally the tribunal has requested the names of bush, cheney and others be added to the commissioner's register of war criminals. >> stephanie: wow. we won't have time for that here because we're too busy with the john edwards trial which is much more paramount. yeah, he's a dirt bag but really? >> campaign finance problems. how about the koch brothers? talking about campaign finance
3:22 pm
reform. >> stephanie: you were right. that would be better to hear tom brokaw report that. >> falling asleep. >> there were a lot of ls in that paragraph. >> stephanie: tribunal in kuala lumpur in malaysia. >> stephanie: diane in palm springs, you're on "the stephanie miller show." >> caller: good morning, steph. i just wanted to say to you guys this morning that i am really upset at the so-called black preachers who are coming out that -- one said he won't vote for obama because he made his personal views known. they had a big scandal with a preacher down in atlanta. no one spoke out against it. he had a big scandal with the president of the national baptist association whose wife found he was having an affair and burnt his house down in florida and they said nothing about that. come on. we're not a one-issue community. >> stephanie: no. that's exactly right.
3:23 pm
it is the same thing diane it doesn't matter race. those who protest the loudest story after story like that, right? >> right. i can't sit up in the pulpit on sundays and preach about being good and forgiveness and fairness to god and then vote for this man because he made his personal views known. come on! that's so hypocritical. >> stephanie: exactly. the good news in the first poll, majority of americans say obama's gay marriage endorsement won't affect vote. 60% said it won't affect their vote. 20% said they were more likely to vote for obamaers obama versus the 13%. >> this really only affects black religious conservatives where it could be a problem. it is a win probably in every other way. >> stephanie: if you parse the numbers, approximately half the less likely group are republicans who won't vote for obama. among ind independents, 63% said the evolution makes no
3:24 pm
difference. the one thing they're saying, figures suggest his gay marriage position is likely to cost him more independent and democratic votes than he would gain in independent and republican votes clearly indicating it is more of a net minus than a net plus which a is what makes it courageous in the first place. however the figures underscore it is a relatively limited group of voters. fewer than one in ten republicans or democrats whose votes may change. we'll talk more about that and rude pundit. 29 minutes after the hour. "the stephanie miller show." you're about to watch an ad message created by a current tv viewer for allstate save 11 campaign.

3:29 pm
call. >> liza minnelli wasn't available? >> shut up, jim ward. 34 minutes after the hour. 1-800-steph-12. patrice in oakland. hey, patrice. >> caller: hey, steph, hey mook. i'm an african-american female. i can tell you right now i couldn't be more proud of the president and i think that he is still going to get a significant amount of the black vote. probably more so now than he did the last time. >> stephanie: wow. >> caller: he is going to get the independent voters because at the end of the day it will still be about the economy. and also, i'm not sure if you guys have checked it out the web site that the obama administration pulled up called romney economics. and it tells about his dubious practices at bain capital and how -- it was about gaining wealth and eliminating jobs. at the end of the day that's what it is going to boil down to. romney has to answer for bain capital. he will have to answer for the
3:30 pm
offshore bank accounts. >> stephanie: i think you're right. even already today, it is back to the economy the discussion. and mitt romney's record on that. because look, there was a memo that came out a top republican pollster advising the republican party to embrace gay marriage. not that romney isn't timid on everything but the timid iity of his response knows they're on the wrong side of history right? >> caller: exactly. back in 2004, the whole marriage gay marriage issue was a wedge issue and they used it to re-elect bush. that's not going to work this time. i think that the american people have wised up to the tactics -- >> stephanie: you're right about television. of course they're going to find the black minister that will vote against obama now to make this a big story. but i have to tell you i interviewed my black best friend aisha tyler because as a liberal, i'm required to have a black best friend. typically racist way skid her
3:31 pm
what do all black people think of this? she had just come from a meeting and she said they're fine with it. [ applause ] >> stephanie: okay. it is monday. >> the rude pundit. ♪ good morning. >> not very minnesota nice. >> stephanie: that's just rude. good morning rude. >> good morning. >> stephanie: speaking of rude, i love your mitt romney always the bully because everybody of course had their take on this -- i mean it really is interesting isn't it, a lot of people say what you did in high school ought to -- except like you say if it hadn't been so -- it is now reflected in his policies. and this particular story and the way he handled it is what put a spotlight on it, right? >> right. first of all, he didn't just come out and say okay, look, i did it. i'm sorry. it was well, if i offended anybody. dude you offend people every day!
3:32 pm
>> stephanie: right! but as you say as with many things about mitt romney, it is hard to believe he was one of those pampered boys because he would get raped by the ghost -- took out his young adult hormonal rages through pranks. so he treated a nearly blind teacher like mr. magoo. talked him into walking into a door with the urging of other prep school boys. it is two homophobic incidents right? >> it is a couple of homophobic incidents, the yelling attagirl which, according to the other -- the people that were interviewed, apparently the teacher even at times yelled attagirl. so really a fine unconstitution there. i think really eminem was right about it. >> stephanie: you point out the same thing. at least two acts would be
3:33 pm
considered felonies. >> right. you take out a police badge and you use a police flashing light pull somebody over and threaten them, that's kind of a crime. like it is a serious crime. and the cruelty of these pranks. >> stephanie: the other one was assault. >> right. the other one was blatantly assault. you're being held down. imagine the terror this guy went through that he just -- and he was already somebody who was depressed, we learned later in his life. he had problems with depression. but he's a closeted gay guy at this prep school and now he's being held down while somebody comes at him with scissors. >> stephanie: can i just say also, kind of a [ ble ] ass assault. when you have your buddies hold someone down it is -- it's like that scene in the godfather here i go where they -- the police captain has them hold michael so that he can hit him.
3:34 pm
[ applause ] i'm not saying he deserved to get shot in the throat. >> it is the lamest version of the thugs in clockwork orange, for instance. >> yes exactly. >> instead of having a cane, he's walking around with scissors. a little derby. ♪ i'm singin' in the rain ♪ >> instead of tampons they have scissors. >> stephanie: i think we should stop with the movie references. >> we're culturally educated. >> stephanie: you made a good point. you gotta wonder, there is an emayor ta, like a frat not talking about hazing. if the mult in.sources were able to talk about what a bucket of [ bleep ] romney was they must hate him on a visceral level much like everyone does as an adult. maybe it is because romney was even then an out-of-touch reletist who judged people on their wealth. >> that was another nice detail in the story.
3:35 pm
that he kept asking -- i don't know if it was that story or the times story that he kept asking people about how much money they had. >> what their dad did. >> where they lived. >> stephanie: i had somebody e-mail me that said that he taught summer camp with kids that went to cran book there and he said it just nauseated him to hear their parents comparing their ferraris. so hey -- >> stephanie: i was in college. i worked at a camp for overprivileged children like that. yeah, same thing. >> you just want to -- >> stephanie: horseback riding lessons, one looked at me and said we have a horse. i know how to do it. okay. sorry. >> just want to punch them in the chest. just hard punch them. >> cut their hair off. >> you have a horse. >> now you've got a broken chest. >> stephanie: i told you the story. i had to drive the bus and one kid said i can't go to camp today. we're going to europe instead. i was like sure, okay.
3:36 pm
>> why did he need to tell you that? >> stephanie: i don't know. >> because he's better than you. >> a bus? i'm used to the concorde, bitch! >> stephanie: you say another good point here, someone shows the story where romney stood up to someone more powerful than he that's what happened at bain capital. [ applause ] >> what did bain capital do? it bought smaller companies and they simply pushed them around and squeezed as much as they can. they asked -- he asked for their lunch money and then threw them aside. >> stephanie: the other thing by the way not that this is a shock to anyone, there was a betting pool on how long -- how many days he would be for gay adoption. [ buzzer ] >> stephanie: less than a day before he flip-flopped and said i'm for gays adopting, no, i'm not. >> i hadn't heard that. that's brilliant. that's great. hey, let's talk about his horse
3:37 pm
for a second. >> only came in 16th. >> you know, it is really a shame when somebody who is so proud and full of money gets to the finals and then fails completely. >> stephanie: aw! me thinks after the election he will be in the stall com comcomforting each other. >> ra fall ca is taking a ride on the roof. >> stephanie: he has to ride on the roof of the plane on the way back from europe. >> the new pink slime. [ buzzer ] >> stephanie: we obviously talking a lot about the president and historic week coming up for marriage equality. you say as a political cal dulation it diminishes mitt romney in ways that make him seem microscopic in stature. it energizes progressives enough to get in the game again. you say as a symbolic gesture,
3:38 pm
it is like the -- as only you can, it is like the first time guy you're crushing on invites you back to his place for a beer and a [ bleep ] job. >> always exciting. >> stephanie: only you can compare the tipping point and the civil rights battle of our generation to a beer and a [ bleep ] that's why we love you. >> you know what? e only thing that would make it better. three stooges on the tv. >> oh, look! >> a wise guy. >> stephanie: have you ever yelled out his name? >> no, curly jo. >> one of the lesser stooges? >> you know, i figure he doesn't get the love that curly gets. >> stephanie: i have to say to have a favorite line in the rude pundit column that you're talking about i believe the national review. how they talk about obama. and you say so now they want
3:39 pm
obama to be seen as once having been hopey the change negro who has been transformed into blacky the panther. hopey would never have used osama bin laden's death in an ad. don't we all miss hopey. don't we all hate blacky? [ applause ] >> that's awesome. >> stephanie: i have never heard hopey the change negro. >> hopey the change negro is the funnest care bear of them all. >> stephanie: yes. he's much better than that scary blacky the panther. >> blacky panther is going to stare at you mean. just like gargamel. >> stephanie: we'll see you next week. love you. >> bye.

have a few cocktails before the show. >> stephanie: the state theatre told us this was the highest alcohol consumption of any show in the -- my people. these are my people. that's all i'm saying. we are party people. wow! we've never sold this much hootch in the history of ever! somebody posted on the teabagging picture oh, lord, what the heavens did they do tonight and where do we send bail money to? does the itchy kitty have an atm? sherrie in philadelphia, you're on "the stephanie miller show." >> caller: hi, steph. i just have a brief observation. >> stephanie: all right. >> caller: jenny diamond mitt romney give us a moral lesson every time they speak on tv. that object lesson is it is no longer a sane strategy to be an honest human being in america. >> stephanie: yeah. you know, you gotta read the piece on bain capital and what they did there.
3:50 pm
by the way speaking of total lack of principles, i mentioned this to rude. mitt romney supported same-sex adoption for one day. that's not the record. >> hello, i lied. >> stephanie: he said originally he was fine with same-sex couples adopting children saying that's something that people have a right to do. by friday afternoon, he was backing away from the position suggesting he merely acknowledges that many states offer same sex adoption. >> i think all states but one allow gay adoption so that's a position which has been decided by most of the state legislators and legislatures rather including the one in my state some time ago. so i simply acknowledge the fact that gay adoption is legal and in all states but one. >> you didn't. >> stephanie: what a weasel. >> i mentioned that it exists. >> you kind of said you were for it. >> no. >> stephanie: somebody told him ahead of time he's not for it.
3:51 pm
>> that was rit mominee. >> stephanie: wow what a bunch of serious homophobic douches. did you hear about rand paul? >> yeah. >> stephanie: it is unbelievable. senator rand paul, the united states senator, at the -- the faith and freedom coalition meeting in iowa. >> recently weighed in on marriage. and you know, he said his views were evolving on marriage. call me cynical but i wasn't sure his views on marriage -- [ laughter ] >> what's that mean even? what? >> stephanie: a, it is using gay as a pejorative. didn't think his views could get any gayer. >> must be really hard at it. [ laughter ] >> stephanie: what is this? eighth grade on the republican side? >> he's a sitting u.s. senator!
3:52 pm
>> shame on him! >> stephanie: we were talking about this saturday night. really literally is the most racist sexist homophobic primary i can remember. i was saying once again the bullies, all of them. that's why chris christie didn't get in. they would have killed the fat kid with a rock. when you see his code name as piggy, you know it is time to -- >> he hasn't gotten in yet. some people feel that chris christie's veto of some healthcare reform thing in new jersey -- over the weekend. >> stephanie: pick me. >> was a signal to romney. pick me. i'm on your side. >> stephanie: pick me, please! pathetic. jordan in florida on romney. >> caller: how you doing? >> stephanie: good, go ahead. >> caller: i was listening to what you were saying about romney and how he's not for gay marriage and i've always been pro-gay marriage but i think you should be entitled to your
3:53 pm
opinion. but he has to remember that his grandfather fled to mexico because americans didn't like the whole having multiple wives. >> stephanie: he thinks it is rude for you to bring that up. >> caller: i'm sure he does. i'm sure he doesn't like it when anybody calls him on this. >> stephanie: yes don't say it. we call [ bleep ] on him. exactly. let's go to jeremy in chicago. you're on "the stephanie miller show." hi sharemy. you're calling on polygamy as well. >> caller: i am. i guess my question, i lean more toward conservative than liberal ideology on the political spectrum. the whole -- gay marriage question, for me, i'm all for equal rights for same-sex couples. >> stephanie: equal financial rights? >> that's romantic. >> caller: well, i'm not talking about romantic. >> most gay people are talking about romantic relationships not just sex.
3:54 pm
>> caller: no, i understand that. i totally get that. but i'm saying for me, my big problem with gay marriage quote-unquote is the redefinition of the term marriage. i guess my question -- >> stephanie: it is not redefining it. it is expanding it to include everybody. >> caller: okay. so going on that then, my question is at what point is marriage -- how far do we expand it? for example -- >> stephanie: slippery slope train coming. >> caller: no, it is not a question of a slippery slope. i'm curious what a quote-unquote liberal or progressive definition of what is the -- what is the cutoff point? >> stephanie: would you hop on the polygamy train? we were waiting for that. >> caller: if we're talking about consenting adults then is polygamy, does that fall under the jurisdiction of the -- >> stephanie: no. no, it does not. because marriage is between two people. i think --
3:55 pm
>> caller: but why? >> stephanie: all right. too bad we're out of time. >> because the bible tells me so. >> stephanie: there you go. >> and other doris day songs. is it? >> not a doris day song. >> stephanie: i was wrong on that. well, quay serra >>you couldn't say it any more powerfully than that. >>it really is incredible.
