robertson feel icky. >> stephanie: that's right. you say here is hoping that brian schweitzer is going to make a run for office. >> yeah, it looks like he is going to do it. he has only been out of the governor's office for about a year. he had a 60% approval rating when he left office. and the republican bench has been decimated by their inability to run statewide there. they have nobody. >> stephanie: yeah. i think that's a really good sign in the gun debate. that's unprecedented, isn't it? kelley iote's approval rating has dropped 15 points. >> yes. what we're told over and over again is the reason that people side with the nra is not because of any issue jit's because they fear nra voters.
6:12 am
and nra voters are simply people who only vote on the gun issue. and they are not people who are vote against you because you didn't support gun control. so if these polling numbers continued to change based on people's inaction, i think that will be a good indication that there are people solidly in the camp of being gun safety owners. >> stephanie: you say habeas corpus for the win, hashtag boston bombing suspect will not be tried as enemy combatant. it couldn't be clearer that this is a u.s. citizen that cannot be tried in a military tribunal right? >> right. the whole notion that there are reasons for which you can just

6:15 am
its former participants as adult volunteers. >> this is so bizarre, i have been involved with the ymca for a very long time, and i can't imagine them having these students coming up through their program, watching them grow into fine young adults, and then at the age of 18 saying you are no longer welcome here. >> sure, they instantly become child molesters. >> stephanie: what were they thinking of? >> it's just bizarre, and you know what it is is this notion that -- well if we point out and underscore the fact that scouts are not to be sexual then we can kick them out if they do anything -- if we catch them doing anything at camp we can kick them out of camp for
6:16 am
any reason -- >> especially boy scouts having abortions. >> stephanie: right. >> and what they don't realize is the blurred message they are sending is you can be an eagle scout, but the second you turn 18 you are no longer fit to be a scout, if you are a gay scout. it's absolutely -- it's sad, but it is in a sense progress. i mean the fact that they would let somebody who is 18 be openly gay and be an eagle scout is progress, i just want it to apply to everybody. >> stephanie: it's almost like when blacks could drink out of the name drinking fountain not marry whites but still it's progress. just be happy for the water. i think we would emulate karl frisch on the ymca.

so when this attack came and we don't know if they were truly inspired by islam, or what but this was a time i really wanted to make it clear that i'm muslim, i'm proud to be muslim proud to be an american and i despite terrorists more probably than non-muslims do because we suffer backlash. and these people are killing people in our name, tarnishing the faith and then i have to answer to the sins of these animals. >> stephanie: right. it's that thing that people say all the time people of everths anity when something bad happens go oh please don't let it be my race. >> right. >> stephanie: you sayislam is a

religiously and the way it is practiced. we're like other minority faiths. we're just trying to make it here. >> stephanie: right. people have misused every religion to justify violence. you write here the unique problem for muslims is our faith is being increasingly defined by a morally corrupt group of terrorists. these are not muslims they are murders. and their true motivation is not religious but political. explain that. >> to me -- well let me just say at the outset there is a connection between islam and their terrorism, but i don't mean one of the five pillars of islam or going through scripture and saying this is why we're doing it. one it's a political act clearly. the russians said we have nothing to do with boston we're
