forget saran wrap on the abs candle wax, it will feel fantastic. follow me on twitter@kennedy nation, facebook kennedy fbn mail, follow me on facebook, i love you, bye. . lou: good evening, everybody. i'm lou dobbs. president obama today seemed to slip his rhetorical mooreings today just a bit as he spoke at his own conference what he and his white house are now calling violent extremism. the president resorted to rhetorical strongmen and devices such as false choices to avoid calling the terrorists who make up the terrorist state radical islamists. the president worked hard torturing reason and reality to effectively minimize the influence of religion in the global war on terror. here is the president president obama:. >> the terrorists do not speak

for over a billion muslims who reject hateful ideology they know more islam than any mad man who kills in the name of god represents christianity or buddhism or hinduism. no religion is responsible for terrorism. people are responsible for violence and terrorism. lou: as if anyone had ever made such a suggestion. as if anyone suggested that people, more specifically of course, radical islamist people weren't the ones responsible. the president's remarks come as the united states and allies are struggling to contain the rapid spread of the brutal and barbaric islamic state that has no qualms about burning people alive in iron cages, beheading others and carrying out mass murders throughout the region much of which they now control. we'll take up what appears to be a president who has a slight understanding of radical islamists, specifically the islamic state and the caliphate they are trying to construct in the middle east.

our guests tonight include former ambassador to iraq christopher hill. former ambassador to the united nations, john bolton. also here tonight president obama isn't the only one stunned that a federal judge halted his authoritarian fiat giving amnesty to five million illegal immigrants. the country's whose citizens are entering the united states illegally are upset as well. mexico regrets the decision guatemala is saddened both countries receiving billions of dollars in remittances from citizens who work in america. tonight, we'll talk with one of the state attorneys general suing president obama to permanently end his amnesty fiat. arizona's attorney general, mark burnvich joins us and what is billed as a foreign policy speech today so we checked on

who's advising him on foreign policy? we'll have the rundown on how many of his foreign policy team worked for his father or for his brother? and we'll be taking up the issues of potential presidential candidates for 2016 with republican strategist karl rove. we begin tonight with the islamic state and a president whose comments come as iraq's ambassador to the united nations warns that the radical islamists are not only barbarians b orga to pay for the terrorist attacks they're carrying out. in syria, the obama administration reportedly now ready to prepare to give some consideration at least to arming some rebels. giving them the ability to call in airstrikes against the islamic state, to provide them with trucks equipped with machine guns and radios. joining us tonight to help make sense of it all, former u.s. ambassador to iraq, christopher hill now the dean of the

joseph korbel school of international studies at the university of denver. ambassador, good to have you with us. >> pleasure. lou: what do you make of a president who is talking about grievances within this country and focusing on avoiding direct, specific plain language talking about the enemies of the united states, and dismissing everyone as if everyone else is simply, you know semanticcists who are wasting time? >> clearly we try to speak to different audiences, from the point of view of a u.s. audience, it's a political correctness they think people have trouble absorbing. but basically he's trying to avoid the islamist tag because he knows he has to get a lot of countries, that might qualify for being radical islamist themselves, and he's trying bring them into a coalition, so he doesn't want to mention

islamist, and it does take on a linguistic, you know jiu-jitsu-type thing to explain it. lou: as i said he strains reason, he strains reality and the facts. it was 12 years ago under the bush administration in which i brought together groups of islamic scholars, and some of the foremost experts in the middle east to come up with the terms most appropriate and meaningful in defining the enemy and the war on terror. that president, 12 years ago, was refusing to acknowledge who the enemy was. and frankly one thing we should have learned over the course of 12 years, this is absolute sophistry and specious nonsense on the part of a administration trying to be correct and killing madam enemy. >> the problem is we live in a very sectarian age in the middle east right now.

no one likes to break it down the sunnis versus shia. there are a lot of intermurals as well. and so the effort is to whistle past the graveyard, and not talk about these divisions, and the problem is it strains credibility, as your piece is suggesting. >> do you suppose, just for a moment, it occurs to me do you suppose that franklin delano roosevelt and winston churchill would have spent time well trying make discreet judgments about the fascism of the national socialist party in germany, and mussolini and his fascist government in italy? it's such tripe intellectualy that i can't imagine people taking it seriously. >> you know at the end of the day, the muslim faith generally has to kind of face this issue of what is being done in their name and the kind of radicalism that goes on. and they need to be able to

start addressing this and i think in doing so seriously, and not avoiding things, but actually taking them on they can gain credibility with the rest of the world and really be seen as trying to work on it but when you try to avoid it and do all these backward somersaults to avoid the language, you are in trouble. lou: how much trouble are we in, in libya? in iraq? how much trouble are we in in syria? a president four years of civil war and decided to arm a group of unnamed syrian rebels. this is an administration that is not only clumsy, that is easily distracted by bright and shiny things that no one else seems able to see clearly, and do almost anything but engage the enemy? >> well i would disaggregate the issue. iraq, there are signs that they've got to contain the

western part of iraq people worried about baghdad, i put iraq in a somewhat different category than syria, i simply don't see any political way forward. i don't see any concept of what we're going to do in syria. do we want it to remain as a country within existing borders? i see none of that. i see this idea of training certain people who are supposed to defeat al-nusra and defeat isis, and by the way, defeat the government forces and i guess have a victory parade in damascus. that's a serious problem, and then in -- lou: it is one of extreme fantasy, i'll certainly say that. >> yeah, yeah it's kind of looking that way. and i think there needs to be much more serious political statement of what do we want to see happen in syria in the future? let me just say real quick about libya. i mean, this was the case of kind of you get rid of this

evil buffoon gadhafi without any thought to how it was it all happened and, of course, the forces that overthrew him are the same forces that are murdering people as well, and frankly threatening the egyptians. so this is a serious problem that requires a lot more attention diplomatically and politically than we've given it. lou: president sisi has stepped forward, i think i will say right now, the most significant leader of the populist arab state. he looks to me as though he is a man of substance and great potential in the middle east. in libya in egypt whether it be mubarak or gadhafi, the fact is those are problems largely of obama's making given the policies of regime change he tried to implement, some would say mindlessly. i wouldn't go that far, of course. ambassador, good to have you with us. >> thank you.

lou: ambassador christopher hill. members of congress are battling president obama over his administration's plans to bring in thousands upon thousands of syrian refugees to the country. the administration says it's all but assured that those refugees are going to be significantly vetted. congress says, however, it is all but assured that theyal be condenseingly radicalized. so far, the united states has taken in something like 500 refugees from syria's civil war. but the administration now plans to quadruple the number this year and bring in up to 2,000 refugees, and planning thousands upon thousands next year. the state department claimed all refugees would be as we are assured, thoroughly vetted. >> ensuring we admit refugees in a way that is safe and consistent with national security interests is absolutely a priority. that's why the process can take

months, if not longer, and we have a lot of experience with this with afghanistan, with iraq somalia, and other places where the united states has taken refugees in. from refugees are the most carefully vetted of all travelers to the united states. lou: house homeland security chairman michael mccaul says that is simply nonsense. >> i've been over there, and i've seen them. most of them are women and children, but there are male actors that concern me. i think this would be a huge mistake if we bring in these refugees into the united states, that could potentially be radicalized and then we have -- we're not only trying to keep these guys the foreign fighters out, but under this would be a federally sanctioned welcome party if you will to potential terrorists in the united states. lou: incredible, and incredibly, bit of a side bar, if i may, those in charge of

protect our southern border are told they don't have to arrest illegal immigrants driving drunk. that's according to a newly obtained department of homeland security memorandum that informs customs and border protection agents in tucson, arizona, they have three choices if they encounter suspected illegal immigrant, drunk drivers, one detain them at the request of local law enforcement. two, detain them without the involvement of another agency. or three, simply let them go. guess which option the administration would prefer? we're coming right back. jeb bush talks foreign policy and seems to be running away from his father and his brother. republican strategist karl rove joins us here next on the presidential hopefuls for 2016.

. lou: former florida governor jeb bush making what his campaign said is his first major speech on foreign policy today, trying to distance himself, he said, from his presidential heritage, his father, his brother. here he is. >> i love my brother i love my dad, actually love my mother as

well. i hope that's okay. [ laughter ] >> and i admire their service to the nation and the difficult decisions that they had to make. but i'm my own man. lou: joining us now former senior adviser, deputy chief of staff under george w. bush republican strategist karl rove, good to have you with us karl. >> good to be with you. lou: let me ask you, downing the governor was successful in his foreign policy speech today? >> well, look, if you were talking about this issue of differentiating himself. this is a long process. this is deja vu all over again. i was with george w. bush in 1999 and 2000 where he had to deal with the same question, which was are you mini me to your father? he had to explain who he was and he was his own man, mostly in what he believed and believed he would do rather than necessarily picking out things he might have done

differently than his father. he tried to focus on what it is he would do. this was the same questions 43 got in his race in 99. lou: you mean how are you different? >> yeah. lou: i'm not worried about that question, as a matter of fact, what i'm interested in is the fact, the difference. and the difference right off the bat is george w. bush tried to separate himself from his father by pushing away scowcroft and baker and everybody else instead of embracing them. and we see jeb, 19 of 21 foreign policy advisers worked either for his brother or his father. >> first of all, first of all, jim baker was not pushed away. baker was a private adviser to george w. bush. but, look, here's the deal. you could make the argument. george schultz one of reagan's top adviser, adviser to george bush and adviser to jeb, there's a limited number of people in the republican

foreign policy world and all of these people had a relationship with the -- and most of them have had a relationship with the last three republican presidents or last two republican presidents. so this is not unusual and not to be -- not a surprise, and you could probably pick out, you could make the argument he's going back to the reagan era, he has baker and schultz and hadley. lou: you are answering questions i'm not asking tonight, karl. the truth is i find it interesting he's taken a different tack than his brother, don't you? >> of course that's what everybody does. time moves on, you are who you are, you have a different -- none of susexactly the same as our parents or siblings. what's interesting over the course of the campaign is how he explains who he is. most people assume, look, he comes from the same family, but nobody assumes they're all exactly alike, and we'll see. but i did want to respond to the point that you made about

advisers. look we had the same thing when people said, oh look at all the people who came out of 41's administration or the reagan administration. who's new out of this? you have the guy -- lou: karl, you are explaining something that doesn't require an explanation. the man is entitled to whatever adviser he wants. i'm just saying i find it a different tact for this governor and the previous governor who decided to run for president, it's interesting. you need a little help on strategy, i'd say that would be demonstrating separation aplenty. turn to the democrats, looks like hillary clinton in a couple of places has a narrower race, a race that isn't formed than many people would have expected, and looks like for the republicans, huckabee is leading one poll nationally, and scott walker and jeb bush look like they're squaring off in others. what do you make of the race right now? >> no republican front-runner.

front-runner leads by double digits. nobody in the republican contest. you may have a poll that shows huckabee or bush ahead, but look at them off. they're all by a couple of points. nobody has front-runner status. this campaign is going to be interesting most of all because what a candidate says and does each and every day has a big impact. look at the early states. there's nobody running consistently ahead in all of them. in fact, there's nobody who's got a double-digit lead in any of t early four primary states, and that's not been the case historically. early polls don't determine much. the person leading today in iowa or new hampshire is rarely the person leading by the time we get around to voting in iowa or new hampshire. it is indication how much up in the air this thing is, and the quality and the quality of the candidates' role in that has a big impact on the outcome. lou: scott walker how formidable do you think he's

going to be? >> very formidable. every step he way. was elected as state assemblyman, became the first republican ever elected county executive in milwaukee county. very democratic county. he was thought to be a loser in the 2010 governor's race won did. extraordinary things, was expected to be tossed out of office. won. had a tough re-election bid and won. don't undereste scott walker. lou: okay, we'll make a note. karl thanks so much. karl rove. >> you bet thank you. lou: time for online poll result, do you believe our judiciary will reject the president's fiat. more than half don't think so. that's unfortunate, and perhaps realistic. vote in tonight's poll, do you believe the worldwide audience for the president's remarks today in any way improved america's image, and do you think he cares about the impact of his words? cast your vote at loudobbs.com.

up next president obama plans to defeat the islamic state with diversity training and religious tolerance? he's apparently not kidding. we'll be translating what the president said in our commentary here next.

don't worry; 74 people were picked before me in the nfl draft. to fight childhood obesity, united way and the nfl are helping kids play more. to donate or volunteer, go to unitedway.org/play60. now i get it. . lou: a few comments about a get together what turned out to be mostly liberal elitists in washington, d.c., that the white house decided to call a summit on countering violent extremism, that's what they refer to terrorism as violent extremism. the white house had an acronym ready, cve countering violent extremism, get it? took me awhile. mr. obama's summit was far more a facade for a man who remains far more a community organizer than a president. and so-called summit seemed to be designed to pump far more

smoke and fog over the white house's response to radical islamist terrorism. and the president's hapless war on what they like to call now violent extremism. president obama seems lost as a manager of the government machine, he talks and he talks but has become a do youer and in my opinion boring speaker, bereft of originality and sparkle. he retains one gift that is considerable. no one can pander the way he does. today in front of public employees of all levels of government and those of nonprofit organizations and ngo's, he won their nods with his calls of ever more government programs, and as he did, he and underlings conjured up assaults on our nation and our people, and his administration has descended to attacking america and americans

rather than the evil of radical islamist that terrorize millions in the middle east and africa. listen to homeland security secretary jeh johnson as he opened the summit by expressing deep profound concerns about the treatment of muslim americans. >> we in the administration and the government should give voice to the plight of muslims living in this country and the discrimination that they face. lou: please, listen again to this man, this secretary of a department representative of our president and our government. listen to him again. >> we in the administration and the government should give voice to the plight of muslims living in this country, and the discrimination that they face.

lou: just as words weren't only insulting but carefully crafted propaganda that supports radical islamists in faraway lands rather than those who seek to radicalize some in our muslim communities. propaganda for the benefit of whom? certainly not americans. johnson and his boss belittle america in the name multiculturalism as if somehow he's required to run down this great country and all who work for him in order to communicate some affinity with muslims broadly, perhaps radical islamists more specifically. as if the obama white house doesn't quite fathom the hideous ideology and the peaceful religion and purpose of narrowly radical islamists who butcher and burn christians jews and even fellow muslims as they try to enlarge their caliphate.

has this administration gone mad? how do you explain a state department flack being sent out to call for a jobs program for terrorists? >> we cannot kill every terrorist around the world nor should we try. how do you get at the root cause of this? it might be too nuance and argument for some over the past 24 hours some of the commentary, but it's the smart way, the democrats, republicans, military commanders partners in the arab world. lou: she considers herself obviously the ambassador of the smart way. she said it's too nuance for some, and for none more than the members of this administration. how do you explain a white house that refuses to use the phrase radical islamist terrorists in a summit about terrorism and how to prevent it? how do we explain a president who swears to destroy the islamic state one day and then

decides the fault lies in america? he's partly right. we did, after all, elect the man, and twice. now the quotation of the evening of our president who talks much about our enemies, but whose name stick in his throat. who beggars his own people to claim an understanding of our enemies. our counsel tonight for the president and all who serve him, the chinese general, philosopher who authored the book on the military strategy the art of war. he said -- . we're coming right back. checks and balances finally working in our system of government. the state's fight obama's amnesty fiat and win, at least for now. arizona's attorney general mark brnovich on the decision to stop the president's fiat, next.

. lou: the president's executive amnesty fiat, facing a real battle after a u.s. district court judge blocked the fiat. my next guest represents one of the 26 states involved in the lawsuit. joining us is the attorney general of arizona, mark brnovich. attorney general, good to have you with us. this is i think, a lot of people were surprised,

certainly you were not, neither were attorneys general, but for this decision to block the fiat, part of this illegal immigrants were to have begun today in the implementation of the president's fiat as they applied for all that would be conferred by the president. what happens next? will the president -- the president says they will appeal, will they in your judgment? >> of course, this is something the president feels very strongly about. i can only speak for myself. i was very confident. i believe strongly in the rule of law, like many americans do. i believe in the constitution. the president is not a king, not an emperor, he cannot unilaterally create law. don't take my word for it and the other attorneys general word. he knew he did not have the power to do this. lou: 22 times before he said he changed his mind he didn't have the power or the right under the constitution to do it. what is next in terms of the appeal that goes to the 5th

circuit court of appeals. what will be do you think, determinate in their decision? >> one of the big issues. the two arguments involve one, do the states have stand to sue? states like arizona and the war against illegal immigration. we had to show actual harm. we are harmed as states and the next issue is whether the president by acting unilaterally by having homeland security essentially change the law whether they violated the administrative procedure's act. the judge didn't reach the constitutional questions. so because he felt so strongly that the administration had already failed to live up to the obligations under the administrative procedures act. lou: and will the judges -- the appellate judges be looking to the constitutional issue or symply the facts as they pertain to the administrative procedures which were violated those violated by the president and his administration.

>> lou, you hit this nail on the head you have been passionately talking about this issue, and it is an important issue for states like arizona. and ultimately should be an issue for all americans because ultimately, this doesn't matter. what you think about administration, whether you think we need new policies and reforms. the question fundamentally is can the president of the united states acting unilaterally not only exercise what he calls prosecutorial discretion but affirmatively grant rights and essentially underchange and gut congressional law to serve his own personal and political needs? so what we have here is a very, very serious constitutional question a very serious question whether the president can unilaterally change the law? and me and -- us arizona along with 25 other states said no, we are a nation of laws. lou: attorney general mark brnovich, good to have you with us, good luck. >> thank you so much. thank you, lou. lou: up next putin's forces

win the battle in the east. the cease-fire in ukraine has been dissolved. we will be joined by ambassador john bolton, here next. i've been called a control freak... i like to think of myself as more of a control... enthusiast. mmm, a perfect 177-degrees. and that's why this road warrior rents from national. i can bypass the counter and go straight to my car. and i don't have to talk to any humans, unless i want to. and i don't. and national lets me choose any car in the aisle. control. it's so, what's the word?... sexy. go national. go like a pro. the future of the market is never clear. but at t. rowe price we can help guide your retirement savings. our experience is one reason 100% of our retirement funds beat their 10-year lipper averages. so wherever your long-term goals take you we can help you feel confident. request a prospectus or summary prospectus with investment information, risks, fees and expenses to read and consider carefully before investing.

lou: pro-russian rebels dealing a major blow to the ukrainian government and forces gaining control and raising their flag over the town. ukrainian forces retreated from the strategic railway hub. my guest says president obama will do nothing at consequence to reverse what has occurred. joining us is former ambassador to the united nations, fox news contributor john bolton. ambassador this look like ukraine is now hanging by a thread. your thoughts. >> well, there is supposed to be a cease-fire as of sunday that left the forces essentially where they were. and the russians the pro-russian separatists and russian forces simply ignored it. they've taken a strategic town and gives them a defensible perimeter and leaves open the question so what is the west going to do about it? and no sign the administration is going to do much of anything or the europeans will either. if you're vladimir putin, have you taken a gamble he's

pursuing a talk and fight strategy and he's prevailing. lou: he's prevailing and it's laughable that the west in particular nato and president obama, for some reason think a man who would invade another country would abide by some marquis of queens bury rules in a cease-fire isn't that borderline idiotic? >> of course it. is this administration entered into strategic arms control agreements with putin, even though they know the russians are violating earlier agreement, this is a mark of a presidency that fundamentally rests on appeasement. we're about to see it demonstrated in the deal over iran's nuclear weapons program they think could be signed any day within the next 30 days probably, and i think it's a mark of the president's inability to deal with islamic terrorism, once you get past

the linguistic debate. he doesn't want to take the steps necessary to stop it from spreading. so i'm very worried what's going to happen over the next two years as our adversaries look at the calendar and see two years left of the obama administration. lou: in the middle east this president not engaging today saying he's basically considering the possibility of arming a set of rebels with the ability to call in airstrikes and some small mobile vehicles with machine guns mounted on the back, it's not much, but it's something more at least would be if he weren't just contemplating it. >> yeah i think it's a piece what i write in the "wall street journal" today, too little too late, fung this is the right thing to do in the syrian case, it's four years too late. we missed whatever slim chance of finding a true syrian moderate opposition and

empowering them to overthrow assad. the president knew the assad regime rested critically on the ayatollahs in tehran, and won't do anything and wouldn't and hasn't for the past four years that will undercut the possibility of a deal with the ayatollahs. it's a big mistake. but i think that's what his view is. lou: cutting a deal you seem absolutely adamant, emphatic that that deal will be done. it is clear that the president's strategy if ever were one or is one, has not been to stop the islamic state but rather to stay as far from the conflict as possible the united states can, which simply empowers the -- what he calls violent extremists, rather than the radical islamists of the islamic state. >> well let's remember who the extremists are, it's not just the islamic state in al qaeda. islamic revolution that rules in tehran has been for 35+

years, the biggest financial source for terrorism around the world. sunni terrorists shia terrorists, an equal opportunity funder. that's the regime that we're dealing with on their nuclear weapons program. it makes vladimir putin look like a pillar of stability. lou: vladimir putin, but in washington, d.c., president obama holding a summit which i have to tell you frankly, john i thought i was watching sensitivity training and diversity training. >> you are! that's what it is. lou: amazing. >> that's what it. is that is the approach of somebody who deep in his soul believes that appeasement is the way to resolve these problems, that if the united states simply withholds its capability to effect the outcome that our adversaries see that we don't have any ill intention against them, and they'll voluntarily give up their assault on our way of life.

neville chamberlin wasn't a secret pro nazi. he was a weak man, that's what we have in the white house today. lou: ambassador john bolton, good to have you with us. >> thank you, lou. lou: the nasdaq gained 7 points. volume continued light trading 3.3 billion shares. crude oil falling to settle near $52 a barrel. reminder, listen to my financial reports three times a day coast-to-coast on the salem radio network. boston mayor marty walsh is warning snowedin citizens to stop posting videos on social media, showing them doing things like that! jumping out of windows into those huge snowdrifts that afflict all of boston. >> i'm asking people to stop the nonsense right now. these are adults jumping out windows, and they seem like it was a fun thing to do. you have no idea what's happening. >> a foolish thing to do and you could kill yourself.

this isn't loon mountain this is the city of boston where we're trying to remove snow off the street it. becomes dangerous. lou: boston has been pummeled by eight feet of snow this winter. such videos have gone viral, much to the dismay of the nanny mayor. do you think he has to tell people that? odd, odd. even by boston's standards odd. bad behavior from rapper afroman, he was arrested and charged with assault. he punched a female fan who got on stage in his concert in mississippi yesterday. that is a punch. afroman spokesman claims he didn't see the woman climb on stage, which is interesting because he did swing to his left and punch her with his right there. i mean hardly -- i mean that's incredible. witnesses say afroman known hear his single because i got high went onto perform after

the incident and will be facing, the music. up next, obamacare, fast and furious, the irs scandal those are a few of the scandals. what a former obama adviser said about the white house scandals that have spent about five years stonewalling. it may shock you. yes, here tonight. the a-team michael goodwin you total your brand new car. nobody's hurt,but there will still be pain. it comes when your insurance company says they'll only pay three-quarters of what it takes to replace it. what are you supposed to do, drive three-quarters of a car? now if you had liberty mutual new car replacement, you'd get your whole car back. i guess they don't want you driving around on three wheels. smart. with liberty mutual new car replacement, we'll replace the full value of your car. see car insurance in a whole new light. liberty mutual insurance.

lou: the president's former senior adviser david axelrod said this yesterday at the university of chicago institute politics. what else would it be? >> i'm proud of the fact that basically the administration has been in place for six years in which there hasn't been a major stand up. lou: joining us tonight journalist michael good one fox news contributor angela mcglowan. i miscounted. we are inundated in scandal. let's set the record straight. >> let me tell you that with the irs scandal, the department of justice, you know they spied upon james rosen, we can talk about and cozzi and on and on. would you like me to continue them at. [laughter] >> he is delusional.

>> i think that the whole administration is a scandal. i think that what they are doing with the islamic terrorism by refusing to call it islamic -- immigration executive orders these are all scandals and it is the mainstream press that won't call them as such and that is david axelrod's definition. lou: it comes down to the compliance in complicity with this administration ideologically at the soul, but there comes a point where you think, if somebody smoking something when matt went is the deal? it has reached a level of denial and absurdity semantics, policy, it is bizarre. >> we have a commander in chief that is diverse diversity and sensitivity, religious tolerance, and he has a lot of

yes people around him. he runs it is a big leadership and if you disagree with them -- you remember when people will not look at saddam hussein in the eyes? that is how it was at the white house. you have a lot of idiots being run by an idiot. [laughter] >> we have to understand violent extremists, do you have someone some way to say maybe they need jobs, but it is ridiculous. lou: let's be clear, that is a big thought. but i think one of the things is that the president continues his way. >> just come he gets away with it, i remember talking to an individual years ago was doing a series of stupid things and i said, when is he going to stop? this man who was a friend said when he feels the pain. and so i think that is what is true of obama. we see him at a 50% approval rating, this is inexplicable, but this must be energy to give

him the fuel to continue the nonsense because half the country agrees with me although it doesn't look like that when you get to foreign policy specifics. lou: i don't think this man is driven, if i may. i don't think that this man is driven by approbation. whatever else it is. i will give him that. i think that he is driven by an agenda and a specific set of values and belief. they are not shared in this country, but i believe that he has a very clear i look at the goals and what he wishes to disturb and that which he wishes to tear asunder. and i think that the idea that he is somehow, you know drifting -- i think he's looking at a greater purpose. >> i agree that he has this stubborn view of things. if the public turns against him even the democrats in congress. lou: the test is going to be

what happens with his fiat being bought. finding out what happens. i'm just speculative. what would happen if the president of the united states not only defy the constitution of congress that defied the court system as well and say that he is proceeding with his amnesty fiat and you are work it out later. >> but he can't do that. lou: they said they couldn't do that when they signed the executive order on him this he but he got over that. >> yes he did. >> he is very aware of the fact that when he's on the ballot the democrats win. when he's not on the ballot they lose. think of what that has done to his self reverence. >> you know if you look at the mainstream media, they are supporting him. asking the average joe how they feel. lou: we are going to find out. michael goodwin and angela mcglowan.
