i'm bill o'reilly, please remember, the sn is stopping right here in l.a. this week because we're definitely looking out for you. 20th time that the g.o.p. presidential hopeful faced off in a debate and last night things got heated. i'm liz cheney in for sean. the final contenders attempted to win the support of voters. but without question the main target of the evening was the reigning front-runner rick santorum. >> particularly, senator season santorum you have a new television ad that labels him a fake.

why? >> because he is a fake. >> i find it really fascinating when people are running for office, they are fiscally conservative. but when they are in office they do something different and then when they are in office, they say i wanted to repeal it. now, they are running on the effort to get rid of it. >> liz: santorum sarn was afforded the opportunity to explain himself. >> i supported it. it was the principal priority to take on a failing education system. i voted for that. it was the against the principles i believe in. when you are part of the team, sometimes you take would be for the team for the leader and i made a mistake. >> liz: obamacare was also a topic of discussion, both santorum an romney blamed each

other. >> it would be a difficult task for someone who had model for obamacare which is the biggest issue in this race to be a nominee of our party. >> the reason we have a obamacare because what you supported with patted toomey, arlen specter the pro-choice senator that you supported and endorsed in a race over patted toomey he voted for obamacare. >> joining me, ed rollins and co-host of the five, kimberly guilfoyle. i was struck watching this debated last need. i thought if you looked at them, they all did well but i was reminded how much better how much better they do than when you listen to the mainstream media caricature caricature of them but it was up to santorum?

>> i agree. this was a pivotal moment in time. he should be saying i am the one that should be leading the country. i think he did get ganged up. he was trying to be a front-runner and he got piled on. i would like to see him do better given the opportunity, if the win goes to romney by default. the only one that we have problems with newt when he talks about the economy and national security issues. other than that a lot of questions should have been asked. >> liz: one of those questions is this whole issue of gas prices. we've all been talking about and focused on. it was mentioned a couple of times last night but there was no question about it. do you think it's an intentional effort to ignore the issue? >> at the end of the day, we have three very smart guys. i put paul on a separate

category, he is smart guy, too, but out of the survival process, we have three smart guys that have served in different capacities. we need to move from defending the past. santorum was a conservative member of congress. you don't get back the race and do overs. romney did things in massachusetts he may want to change. we sat there beating the daylights out of each other. president submitted a budget last week we can take apart. there is a bunch of things, crisis of gas and energy and monetary policy or what your dad defense. we are dismantling the greatest military in history. the young men up there basically are about to go to service to our country again and those are things we ought to be talking about, not the past but the future. >> liz: one of the things we saw

is that ron paul seems willing to attack everybody except mitt romney. i would be interested to hear your thoughts, do you think there is some kind of deal? >> it would be the strangest marriage i have ever seen in my life. no disrespect to ron paul but he is a gadfly. but you are part of the problem and the truth of the matter, you try to do an effective job as you can and circumstances change. i think paul, special way calling out fake. i didn't like that. to say that and call another candidate a fake. i don't think that went over well. the secret alliance, some kind of survivor pack between romney and paul, but certainly like i said, it was a missed opportunity for santorum. i agree with that. coming down to the three of

them. but as a party, pick somebody and move forward and there has been enough debate, have a common goal which is to defeat barack obama and remove him from the white house. get serious about that. who is the best person to could it. >> liz: one of the most serious issues in the last few weeks is the issue of religious phlegm. we watched the democrats try to turn this into a some allegation that there is a war on women, republicans trying to take away birth control. do you think what we've seen the candidates do now will help shift the ground to that, make clear to the american people this is about religious freedom? >> i think the attacks are falling flat. this is an opportunity for people to come together and understand this just isn't about catholic church. this affects all faiths. in this isn't a party against

women or women's health which they try to suggest. i'm a catholic. i'm concerned about it. and christians are concerned about. they should look at this administration very clear example of their agenda and what they have in mind and then the voters need to make a choice. is this who you want in office. >> liz: looking forward now, we've got michigan and arizona coming up. what is your assessment if romney loses michigan, is he out of it? >> i don't think he is going to lose michigan. i think he has momentum. he spent 55 in million in negative advertising. in the debates, ron paul and romney race, nobody has a campaign or organization. so i think at this point in time i would expect him to win. i think the super pacs have allowed santorum and gingrich to go on. it's about winning.

you basically to have win delegates every week that is left. i don't believe in a brokered convention but i think someone is going to gain. >> liz: you don't think its must win for santorum, he can continue on? >> he loses momentum. he may have lost his momentum off the debate last night. you get the momentum without an organization, without resources by winning. so if for some reason, he would get more money and keep going. at this point in time, romney does have that organization. he has that get out the vote effort and absentee ballots, nobody else has those resources. >> liz: we'll keep watching closely and i hope we can focus on the substance of the issues. >> coming up. brent bissel will break down all the different ways they put the

different spin on the news. first, iran gets closer to the bomb and in response, obama administration calls the regime there a ration "why did i roll over my i.r.a. to scottrade?"

"for starters, it didn't cost me anything." "and i got a one-hundred dollar cash bonus for rolling over by april 16th." "i like bonuses." "plus at scottrade, there are thousands of commission-free investments." "and if i need help, i can find it online, by phone or at one of over five-hundred scottrade locations." "it's why more investors with i.r.a.s are saying.." "i'm with scottrade." ♪ [music]

administration continues to tiptoe around the issue. earlier this week, a general said it's much too soon to discuss military zblax do you think they are moving for nuclear technology but whether they choose to make a nuclear weapon is unclear? >> it is. i believe it is unclear and on that basis, i think it would be premature to exclusively decide that the time for military action was upon us. we are of the opinion that the iranian regime is a ration actor and for that reason we think current path we or is the most prudent. >> liz: joining me is four-star general, jack king. thank you for being with us this evening. >> great to see you and in particular the chair asking the questions. >> go easy on me, okay?

>> in response what we heard general dem si say, do you think there is a any question they are pursuing a nuclear weapon? >> i don't think there is much doubt about it. we're having a public debate with our closest ally over the time line surrounding the iranians having a nuclear weapon. what is really happening here, our intel analysts and israeli analysts look at the same data. estimate is one to two years in terms of weaponization of nuclear capability. our policymakers have to be tendency on the outside policy so we have more time for sanctions and diplomacy. israeli policymakers have a tendency to be on the inside of that information and say we're running out of time. you can understand their skepticism for two reasons, one, when we invaded iraq in 2003, shortly thereafter the iranians

stopped their nuclear weapons program they were afraid they were next. but it took us three years for us to understand they had done that. it took us two years to understand they restarted the program. we hadn't negotiated with the north koreans to stop their development of the nuclear weapon. it was unacceptable and we negotiated ourselves into the north koreans doing that. israelis are erring on the side time is running out and we may have to do something. they don't want to do something but they may have to. >> liz: given that is situation, doesn't it make more sense for the united states to be conveying the message to the world that we will stand with israel and prevent iran from attaining a nuclear weapon to convince the iranians that military action is in their future if they don't comply? >> absolutely. we made a public policy statement that having a nuclear

weapon is unacceptable. that the military option is on the table. we should certainly follow that up with very strong diplomatic messages, not public messages in terms of what that truly means to the iranians if they continue to consider pursuit of this. the israelis also know there is still some time. they want the united states to be much tougher in terms of economic sanctions, not this slow incremental protocol where executing now but something that is much more determined, more simultaneous and more aggressive to convince the iranians they should voluntarily give up the program. also, assuming conducting simultaneous covert action with the israelis. >> liz: one of the arguments you hear, any type of military strike would be so risky or would only serve at best to delay the iranian program.

it seems to me that is not a bad outcome, wouldn't you say? >> to say that a military operation would not be successful because it would not destroy the capacity indefinitely, i think that is misguided. to conduct a military operation and delay it is an acceptable outcome. there is risk because of the nature of the distance of the targets and nature of the target itself. certainly risk to the israelis in terms of the iranians retaliation capacities. but when you look at it from the israeli perspective, they say that is an acceptable risk given the fact iranians would have a nuclear weapon and they have public rhetoric for years saying they would use that weapon to destroy israel. >> liz: we've seen across the region a lot of developments of concern. i want to ask you in particular about afghanistan. i know you've come back. could you give us a sense what you heard from the people on the

ground about what they think the u.s. posture is in the region? >> i've done four assessments in afghanistan since the president made the decision to put the surge forces in. let me say at the outset weergs have a great leadership team there and ryan crocker is best in the business. general john allen who took over from dave petraeus, superb officer. troops, contractors putting their shoulder into the mission. major takeaway for me, there is a general sense that u.s. policymakers will not see the mission through. there is a lack of confidence in it. that is disturbing, it's driven by the fact that pulling the surge forces out over the objection of petraeus. we didn't leave any forces in iraq which were over the objections of general. that has not been lost on leaders in afghanistan whether

they be afghan leaders or international community leaders or american leaders. with all that said, we have made a major turnaround in security in afghanistan. improvement has been dramatic in the south and beginning to do the same thing in the east. >> liz: i hope we will give our commander is on the ground and troops the support they need. thank you again for your service to the country. thank you for being with us tonight. coming up, time to hold the mainstream media accountable for outrageous bias and later sean sat down with steven baldwin to preview act of valor starring preview act of valor starring active duty at i remember the day my doctor told me i have an irregular heartbeat, and that it put me at 5-times greater risk of a stroke. i was worried. i worried about my wife, and my family. bill has the mos common type of atrial fiillation, or afib.

>> liz: welcome back to hannity. it's time for media mash. this is segment we round up all the ways liberal media puts a spin on the news. joining me is president of media research center brent bozelle. good to have you this evening. you've taken a look at how the press has reported rising gas prices. i think you have interesting information if we can put it up,

how many stories between march 24th and april 24th of 2008. there were 97 stories about rising gas prices. looks like when you compare that to this period, january 20th to february 20th, we only have seen 21 stories. why aren't they interested in reporting it? >> interesting. in the 2008 period, gas hit 3.56. last month, it hit 3.56. how is it 97 stories. this was a major controversial issue, 21 when its obama. one-quarter of the number of stories. consider in 2008 you had 5% unemployment. today you have 9% unemployment. so 3.56 bigger problem than 2008. why? because the media don't want to report that goes against

re-electing barack obama. this is huge story that is affecting everybody out there. >> liz: also i think we can expect gas prices to go to go up. some people are saying $6 to $7 a gallon? >> very on important. because when it hit $3.50 about george bush, it was later in the spring when it hit the peak season. now, we're nowhere near the peak season and people are predicting higher than that. consider this also. this is important. look at the president's speech today where he blamed republicans for this. at one point, media is going to call this man out on dishonesty that is coming out. just lack as we-week they were not opposed to the keystone

pipeline. they say it with straight faces because they know they won't get called out on it. >> liz: there are many in the president's base that want to see higher gas prices. environmentalists in particular. i think you've got stories, what has been said recently by correspondents in some of the other networks looking at issue of higher gas prices. >> we begin choice, food or fuel. that is the reality as prices continue steady climb. >> better off gas prices, $5, $5 wouldn't it provide with incentive with alternative forms of gas? >> why not take this opportunity to put a tax on gasoline, bump it back up to $4 and use that revenue for alternative energy and as a signal to the consumers those days are gone?

we're not going to have gasoline you can fill up your tank for $20 anymore. >> liz: don't you think it goes on the decision of the keystone pipeline. the president isn't all bent out of shape because his environmental friends will look at alternative sources of energy? >> i'm laughing because i'm looking at people like tom brokow. what happened to the news media. they want higher gas prices because they want it to be a disincentive for gasoline because they don't like this kind of energy. they want solar, they want wind, any alternative fuel other than this. the great irony, that is the fuel that we have overabundance of this in this country. this president will say he won't get to it. get this. consider that oil production in this country 10 million barrels

a day when he took office, it's down to 7 million barrels a day and the president is giving a speech blaming republicans for this. this should be an issue he should be called on. >> liz: don't you feel like you are banging your head against the wall? talking about the notion of the environment leads us to the next topic is senator santorum's comments about environmental theology. let's take a look at that. >> on the broadcast, what did he mean on public schools, prenatal testing, rick santorum said a lot of things over the weekend and now tonight, there is a lot of talk about what he meant. >> santorum increasingly on the white house radar, questioning the president's christian values. linking the president's beliefs to a phony theology. >> don't you know -- do you wonder that may lead some people to suggest you were questioning

the president's faith. >> liz: unbelievable. are we in for more of this. >> this is where the media are just flat out dishonest. he knows he wasn't talking about bible, he was talking about environmentalism. the problem is the media does the drum beat every single weekend. it's going to be perry or gingrich, they continuously bring this idea of controversy, controversy, controversy. here the candidates have to explain themselves, but this is controversy. the problem with the social conservative issue with santorum consider this, 86% of the national media seldom never to go church or synagogues. 2% of the national media are practicing catholics. this is how completely out of

touch they are with social conservatives. if there is one issue where there is complete disconnect between the national media and the public it's in the social conservatives. outside of washington, d.c. and beltway, new york city and los angeles, nobody cares about these issues. what the national media, everything is a controversy because they don't agree witness. >> liz: we're lucky you are watching out for us when you know it's only going to get worse. thank you very much. don't go anywhere. the great american panel is the great american panel is next.

>> liz: tonight on our great american panel, here is the ceo of western sky forum, ryan frazier, editor of jane politics patricia murphy joins us, fox news analyst, peter johnson, jr. joins us.

i thought we would start off with gas prices. we've got a new rnc ad out and get your thoughts on it. ♪ ♪ ♪ >> republican national committee is responsible for the content of this advertising. >> liz: he certainly can see but can he lead. >> i says it all. the president is kind of damning the republicans they don't have a solution, drill, drill, drill. that is part of the solution. part of the solution is america having confidence in the president and in leadership and in the ability of the united states to find alternative sources and take the sources we have. america is failing at this point. that is one of the reasons that we're seeing these gas pricing skyrocketing, bad, bad.

>> i'm from colorado, so energy is a big deal. here is the real issue. right now, our gas prices are being driven by overseas oil prices. it was an article in the "wall street journal" that talks about 50% of america's gasoline comes from refined crude oil from overseas. that means when there is issues say in china or we have instability in iran, it can affect our gasoline prices here at home. which is more reason we have to have true energy independence. in an energy policy that doesn't allow government to pick winners or losers but allows for a free market to do so. >> liz: you think some of that would involve making sure we had a pipeline in place keystone pipeline that would bring jobs to the u.s. which the president rejected and white house seems to have it both way and say they didn't reject it? >> there were a lot of democrats

that wanted to see it approved. democrats are well aware that we have a huge problem in united states, we are no longer the masters of our own destiny. china and india rising. opec can sell whoever they want to. we're no longer a country where the president can say, can't we just work this out? the president doesn't have an easy solution. that will be the last time we'll see him singing in any form until he gets his head around this. they have polling, gas prices, it tells people where the economy is going. >> liz: there isn't a fundamental problem on this, it really is the case, environmentalists we should be doing nothing with petroleum prices don't mind it? >> i think you are right.

they want both sides of the issues but you have to recognize the fact that the foreign policy of this obama administration has driven this. instability with regard to iran is in part caused by the weakness of the foreign policy of this administration. some of those issues should be resolved by now. now, we're talking about, what is going to happen in the strait of hormuz. what is going to happen to oil prices? what is going to happen to gas. that instability is driving it. >> liz: the white house really likes to talk about the number of jobs they have saved or created. trying to convince people that the economy is growing and recovery is doing better than it is. aren't they going to run into a problem if people have to go to the pump and see these gas prices rising? >> absolutely. they will run into a problem. it goes further than that. if you look what this administration recently released with respect to corporate tax

reform, they are going after their own gas industry taking away key deductions, they are not being favorable to an industry that is responsible for hundreds of thousands of good paying jobs. we have to realize we need a tax policy that respects each and every one of these companies. >> liz: i think the obama administration isn't completely at fault. i think the administration had a plan but it wasn't a plan that nobody wanted to go along. he did put forth and idea. it's not an idea wanted to follow behind. he has increased domestic oil production. he knows as well as bush and clinton knew there is no easy fix. you need a long term policy and doesn't have a congress to follow him behind. >> liz: he hasn't done anything to put a long term policy in place. let's check in with greta van susteren. >> greta: good evening. excitement in the republican

>> liz: we continue with our great american panel. so somebody surprising has expressed interest being on the ticket with mitt romney. patricia, rand paul said he would be honored to be considered as vice president. maybe he doesn't have a lot of faith in his dad's chances. >> i don't think he is ruling out a paul ticket, but it fuels

the conspiracy theory there is something that ron paul has cooked up with mitt romney. there has not been a drop between those two camps. silence has been deafening between those two. then to see rand paul, i guess i would love to be vice president. it would help somebody like mitt romney. he needs a tea party sort of knighthood and say yes you are okay. >> liz: but romney has to pick somebody that could possibly be president and think it's a stretch. >> it's good for egos and makes for interesting stories but in the end, i don't think it's going to happen. i think it does say, okay, i would consider someone of that ilk, someone that has that

belief system but not to bring him on as my ticket. >> there are a lot of good folks. they will have to do three things. one, they're going to help energize the base. two, they will have to expand the appeal of the national ticket. three, they're going to have to be someone on any given day is viewed as someone that can step in and be president. >> i'm a little bit partial to the issue who ought to be republican. it seems to me, i think number one has got to be, you can step in on day one and become president if you got to. it's interesting the other rumor is that ron paul may run as an independent if he is unsuccessful that he will likely be but he wouldn't do that because of rand paul. >> he doesn't want to say his son would like to play a role in

leading some day. i think because errand is out there, it reduces the chance i agree, i do think that was problem with sarah palin. people liked her as 'earn but was he is ready to be a vice president? >> liz: there are lot of people looking to governor pa had lin to see if she will jump into the race. it's question of brokered convention and has the fact that karl rove is the architect, he said this is possibility. does it mean it's over? >> i kind of think -- but in terms of the mainstream media, i get the feeling they are putting that out to a great degree to diminish the capacity and the qualifications of the republican candidates that now exist to say oh, yeah, if mitch daniels was

there or this one was there, what a dream ticket. that would be unbeatable person for the republican party. from what i've seen and i saw the debate last night, any one of the four candidates would be credible against the president in a debate. to start looking at people that have no interest in running and say, yes, republican party in which they do back room deals and that is how they are going to find a candidate. >> liz: there a long history, republicans and democrats of long primary season. the argument is usually made it makes the candidates better at the end of the day because they had to answer the charges against them. >> i think brokered convention is obviously possible but very unlikely. this is a volatile election. things will be sorted out. i believe the republicans are going to respect the process and come together and maybe they'll make some fixes for 2016.

with romney, his challenge is convince the base he means what he says. for santorum, he has to give people a reason to support him. >> every voter i talk to, i would say would you vote for mitt romney. absolutely. i don't think there is a crisis we're told there is. >> liz: thank you guys very much. coming up, actor steven baldwin and you have to see the new film "act of valor," next. the employee of the month is... spark card from capital one. spark cash gives me the most rewards of any small business credit card. it's hard for my crew to keep up with 2% cash back on every purchase, every day. 2% cash back. that's setting the bar pretty high. thanks to spark, owning my own business has never been more rewarding.

all the behind the seants of how these things happen. so relativity had an agreement with military to basically build training facilities. they filmed it as part of this agreement. >> sean: interesting. >> it was very interesting. that became developing the story of four or five different story lines. these navy seals had experienced. they shot it all together. they wove it altogether. it's so awesome because the message of this movie for these navy seals, this is the story of the brotherhood of being soldiers. that is powerful. >> sean: you know, i like the fact it's an eight-man seal squad we're following in the movie. different jobs or missions they are involved in. one in particular, alley impressed me at the start of the movie, a woman beaten, kidnapped

mccullough. it's not so much of the political part of it. i have an opinion. for me, so much of the powerful transition and effect that really, really going into my faith has caused, until you walk in my shoes and explored this thing as intimately as i have, all i can say it's real. it has an impact. with that in mind. kevin has been a great learning curve for me. what is odd, kevin and i believe for all we do with our radio show and marking company and voicing our perspective, we like to try to within reason and within communication win people over to our perception and our understanding. there is a lot of people on the left that is progressive and liberal, they appreciate family

values. they are people of faith. we strive to try to find the bridges of connectivity as much at we can. >> sean: i can
