7:20 am
years. >> stephanie: he said that's what someone told him. >> caller: romney's reply was i have paid taxes and plenty of taxes. that seemed to be the end of it. that's not the issue. the issue is whether or not you paid federal income taxes. everyone has paid taxes. you buy gasoline. you pay taxes. you buy a house you pay property tax. you buy a can of sardines, you pay taxes. romney specifically left out the question of federal income taxes because harry reid phrased the question broadly. >> stephanie: yeah well. >> caller: and no one seemed to say to harry reid, you need to say federal income taxes and see what romney's response is. >> stephanie: mainstream media they should have said, have you

7:23 am
janks preabus. it sounds like a hogan's hero. he was calling harry reid was a liar. when he said the president says things that are not true about my policies. the tax center did this analysis saying that romney's plan would raise taxes. throughout the entire primaries romney's campaign cited that as a nonpartisan place and used figures from it. why did stephanopoulos not confront him when he was saying an untruth. he said no, this is a policy center that you have cited as a nonpartisan, fair minded--no one calls him on those details. >> they're not supposed to any

more. >> you would. >> you will have to leave it there. >> you would if romney had the to come on this show. >> stephanie: hello. >> caller: hi, stephanie, mitt romney always lies about his taxes. he started when he was running for governor in massachusetts. i'm a resident of massachusetts. i'm a resident of massachusetts yet he filed residency in utah. and he had to amend his massachusetts tax returns so he could run for governor. once a liar always a liner. the burden of proof is on mitt romney. will lie, mitt romney. >> stephanie: i think that's the thing. there are all kinds of stuff in there that are starting to come out. the reasons he wouldn't want them released. that was one of them that i heard. >> caller: another thing. >> stephanie: in his claims when he was at bain, about all of that stuff. >> caller: well, what about the day before he took office as governor? he had his bermuda trust transferred into his wife's name. that right there is shady. >> stephanie: yes, a little shady, don't you think?

you know we've been talking all morning about this latest welfare ad that romney has out. is every ad that romney puts outgoing to be based on a lie. >> caller: i'm waiting for romney to tell the truth about anything. it's crazy. it doesn't do anything to the work requirement. this is about as nonsensical an ad as mitt romney could put together. i suppose we're going see more of them. it's good that we have statements from bill clinton for bill clinton it get involved. i don't think he likes to get too involved in politics nuances nuances. but i don't know what the romney campaign, what do they think they're going to get out of this? i don't get it. >> stephanie: it's so demonstratebly false. when you have these republican governor who is have asked for more leeway in how to work requirement
7:33 am
as mitt romney asked for when he was governor, how many more times has this proven to be completely--i don't know whether it's more dishonest or hypocritical or both, right? >> caller: a couple of things. politically to me is suggests that romney still has trouble winning over his base. the base loves to hear the dog whistles about democrats and socialism and democrats don't care about people having to work even if it's completely false. the other thing is romney is still struggling with his base. i saw a story that romney is going to be campaigning in indiana. indiana, the state i'm from, any republican who is campaigning in indiana in august in the presidential campaign is in deep trouble. and if you look at some of the polls whether it's virginia, colorado, some of the other battleground states, president obama is starting to widen his lead, and romney is facing a tough battle it looks like in in places like indiana and the landscape is really rotten for
7:34 am
romney at this point. he has got some big problems. >> stephanie: when you say dog wrestle,whistle, you're right. this is the cadillacs of hail mary, isn't it? >> caller: it is just hail mary after another one. it was just hail mary of ohio voting. the republicans in ohio decide well no, we can't allow people to vote three days early. except members from the military. the obama administration battled that and said we should allow everyone to vote three days early in ohio. and some saw that as an attack on the military. that's crazy under the republican's plan people who had lost a leg in previous wars who were veterans, they would not be allowed to vote. all the obama administration is doing with that is saying, look, we want veterans to be able to vote early. we want everybody to vote early.
7:35 am
romney can't turn that around. >> stephanie: i sense underneath i sense a white-knuckle panic over this tax and bain issue. >> caller: panic coming from that and romney's favorability ratings. he now has the highest unfavorable rating of anyone who has been polled in the last 30 years who has been a presidential nominee. his numbs numbers are off the charts bad. most people don't understand the specifics of bain capital and what mitt romney may be trying to hide with his tax returns now seeping into--never mind people who follow politics, but the people who don't. i think romney has shot himself in the foot several times. and look, it may be the case that there are some things in romney's tax returns that would sink his presidential campaign but he's paying the price right
7:36 am
now in terms of people having extremely high unfavorable views of him hiding this stuff and not being transparent and coming up with cockamamy reasons why he won't release it. >> stephanie: let's--david speaking of where things are at, let's get your take if president obama has a three-point lead in north carolina. he's up 49-46% there. he had just an one-point lead in july. we got a new cbs and "new york times" poll out romney is ahead in colorado, 48-45. and in wisconsin obama has a six-point lead, does any of that make any difference this early? >> caller: i think it makes a difference in terms of where they spend money. again, these are states that given the economy and whatnot, i think romney as a challenger should be doing much better. my sense is in the romney campaign is probably beting if you look at some of the polling and go to registered voters
7:37 am
versus likely voters, the numbers get better for romney and a little bit of enthusiasm gap from those who voted four years ago. but even that, the pool of likely voters romney is behind. for him to be bind at this point in the campaign, i think romney has got to be freaked out. and the obama campaign, they're able to widen the map with their competitiveness. i think the obama campaign was not really counting on north carolina or necessarily even virginia. the longer those states are still in play, they've got a slight edge, i mean, it's great news for democrats. >> stephanie: yes, absolutely. and it seems like the latest destruction is going to be oh, look over there it's the vice presidential pick. i love this mitt romney even, he was talking about speaking spots because people are saying as speakers are announced, that means that they can't be the vice presidential candidate. >> romney: you can't be thinking
7:38 am
that to be so silly we wouldn't throw people from time to time. they wouldn't find their speaking slot changed from one time to another. >> stephanie: isn't that tricky. >> oh, it's like pulling the rug out from under us. >> caller: you know, stephanie i got to say and maybe that's not polite to say but i have an uncle who specializesizes in people with asperger'ses and autism. he suggested that maybe mitt romney has some form of asperger'ses because he's so inept in connecting with people with what he thinks is funny that is not funny and maybe this tick he has is related to that. >> stephanie: you can make jokes, but when this are so many of those awkward moments look at this hardware--its hardware--he doesn't know the name of the word bucket. >> he had a bucket and he had
7:39 am
that hardware stuff. >> that stuff. >> stephanie: he didn't even know what a donut is. >> caller: yes, i bought a hammer to hit rafalca when it came in third place. >> stephanie: oh, david shuster. [laughter] >> caller: the rafalca issue offended me. i was embarrassed. i don't think our olympians should be coming in 30th place, and especially when they're taking tax write offs and if rafalca gets 30th place, there are more robs than he knows. >> he shouldn't have been strapping the horse from the top of the plane. >> you got a giggle from david shuster. >> stephanie: david, take a guess on the v.p. pick. what do you think? inks i was doing high five this is morning when i saw that paul ryan under serious consideration, the guy who wants to splash medicare and apparently paul ryan has submitted documents that he and romney get along very well, i
7:40 am
mean that's--the romney campaign will sink. he might as well just pop the champagne cork at the obama head quarterrers if romney picks ryan. democrats who run on protecting medicare, social security are winning in tough districts. the obama ads everything is ready to go. paul ryan is romney's picks and they'll hang around boom obama-care around romney's neck. if the romney camp picks rob portman, which is again is not a great pick because the senator from ohio. he was bush's director. he blew a hole through the budget. he didn't though any fiscal responsibility. i think tim pawlenty may be the safest pick, but bobby g.
7:41 am
>> caller: ndelbob--bobby gendell and then chris christie who can't keep his mouth shut. >> stephanie: don't go to the elephant jokes. i can see you. >> what, and quit show biz. >> caller: chris christie, i thought it would be the vice president role to check on the health of the president not vice versa. >> stephanie: exactly. you know, david again i think part of this is how the media covers stuff. i don't know if you heard a caller who was just saying robert gibbs was on morning joe and they were beating him up over this ad, a real guy who lost his real job when bain took over. how is that unfair? >> caller: yeah, i mean, unless they--unless it's mitt romney romney personally pulling the plug on this person's life support system, which obviously
7:42 am
did not happy. it's policy. the policy that we are discussing this is why people ought to get out there and vote. these are real world consequences. what sort of policies we're going to term in healthcare, social security. these are real world consequences. if we can't debate these issues in the media particularly morning joe, that's what they said this morning. that's crazy. >> stephanie: why didn't they have an romney spokesperson on to say this welfare ad is based on a complete lie. this ad is completely false. that's what i'm saying. >> caller: right, too much of the media often says, well, obama campaign and romney campaign and the dust up of welfare reform. no, it's not a dust up. it's one campaign lying about it and the other campaign is telling the truth. that's what drives me crazy in the political coverage with me colleagues, this is not an
7:43 am
equivalency when somebody is lying. they said this is how they lie today. and even if president obama lies about something, call it out. this is not just a sport where you say he threw a roundhouse. no, there is some dirty stuff and it is their responsibility to call it up. >> stephanie: everything you just said and your blue eyes is why so hot h-h-h-ot. >> caller: i got engaged. >> stephanie: congratulations i say with false sincerity. >> caller: i said to her, i could not hold out for stephanie any longer. >> stephanie: your teasing went on too long. oh well. >> caller: but she is said she would give they special dis dispensation involving you.

8:33 am
the military at this point? >> caller: yeah, i think it's just won of those things when you talk to democratic party strategists or politicians, even nancy pelosi interviewed in the aftermath of this tragedy said it's not going to legislation because the politics have been terrible, they have been terrible since 1994 when they thought they lost congress because of the supporting the brady ban. in swing states the nra will take you out if you support any kind of gun control and it's too politically dangerous. it's just now so bad we just have to see some leadership. >> stephanie: ruth, you make a good point in this piece of yours. you say both parties are hostages of the nra. but as i say, the republicans did not sign--they pledged to uphold the constitution, not grover norquists pledge. you say the american people owe
8:34 am
nothing to the nra. people of will and common sense have to come together and live in a country where innocent people are not routinely gunned down in a movie theater and places of worship. enough is enough. who is the nra? >> caller: yeah, they're very powerful. they have a lot of money. they focus really hard on people. but these political tides can be turned. i just think that i can't believe that democrats and republicans can't afford to take a stand for--you know, saying yes, we can protect people. it is simply not the case that we can't do anything about this. you know, you shouldn't be able to order these c online. you shouldn't be able to carry an assault weapon. it is just not the case that it's impossible to do anything about them. >> stephanie: yeah you know, i was curious your take, too ruth like clock work we knew this was going to happen. you remember when the report came out on right wing extremism, and the right wing
8:35 am
went crazy. this is obviously the other part of it that you address in your piece. you know, the headline that i'm raiding, republicans blast the obama administration about right wing terrorism. that's another element of it. >> caller: that's exactly right. here in our state we have michelle bachmann stirring the pot frantically and then this covert racist strategy running against obama talking about muslims dog for some reason they managed to connect these concepts in people's minds not only are sikhs muslims but obama is a muslim to the far right. it stirs people up and republicans should take some responsibility for saying no. just like john mccain at a certain point he felt he had to get off the ugly train because it was creepy and dark some of what they were stirring up. >> stephanie: ruth, so people know what we're talking about in 2009 the department of homeland security said white supremacy was the u.s. biggest
8:36 am
threat of domestic terror. and it was blasted for defining terrorism too broadly. john boehner against the homeland security. they owe the american people an explanation using the term al-qaeda while using the term that republicans and democrats are taking our nation. this is a guy who does not agree--he's a racist loon. >> caller: and they use the word to describe the president of the united states. it's really--it's too bad though, that the department of homeland security, then, apologized for quote/unquote flaws in the report. >> stephanie: oiy,. >> caller: and withdrew it. >> stephanie: this is what i mean. we back down. the report was entitled right wing extremeism current economic and political climate and named white supremacists radical anti-probationists and a few
8:37 am
veterans as susceptible for recruitment by extremist groups. the last few shootings who have they been? dr. tiller is gunned down in church. we've got this guy who was a disgruntled veteran who had been recruited by a supremest group. and the other thing is he had been tracked by the law for a decade because of his ties how did he get the firepower that he got. >> caller: this is really sort of an unpleasant under world that they're delving into. this is one of the things coming out in wisconsin the neo-nazi bands and the music scene in this country and europe, it's hate rock. there was a big huge concert in the park where people came out and you know, really kind of were focusing on the musical aspect of this and what a nasty
8:38 am
white supremacist culture these rock bands are part of and tried to play happier music. >> stephanie: i don't know where that comes from. we hate music. let's put it to music. what has that to do with music. the department of homeland security, more importantly, they were dead on. they said during recessions these threats go up. nobody--it's not escaped anybody, gee, i wonder what one of the factors could have been, i don't know, down first black president? they tracked this. >> caller: remember the oklahoma city bombing remember that far back before they found timothy mcveigh there was chatter and worry that it was muslim terrorists. it's just confusion. muslim terrorist is someone who has dark skin and wears a turban. but it's the opposite. it's the white racists that we have to worry about. >> stephanie: yes, thank you for taking your time for us. we appreciate it. >> caller: thank you. >> stephanie: talk to you soon.
