5:11 pm
you can explain this to me. the sense of entitlement that sandra fluke has. you have a young woman. georgetown law school. very expensive place. she is going to be, you know, successful if she works hard in the marketplace and then she is standing there telling americans, you know what? you have got to help me out here. have you got to pay for my social activities. just think the sense of entitlement is outrageous. where am i going wrong? >> well, the way she presented it i wouldn't disagree does come off a bit that way. where are you going wrong bill is this. this is not about sex. this is not about morality. it's not even 100% about women's rights. this is about money. the bottom line and costs. it's cheaper to pay for prevention than it is to pay for pregnancy after the fact. unwanted pregnancy, welfare, wicca. >> i'm not going to argue that point because it absolutely has validity and this may shock you, leslie, you are not saying something that's wrong. here is where you are going wrong, all right? >> okay. >> bill: planned parenthood gives out this stuff and a lot of other clinics that gives it
5:12 pm
out. if all of the progressives in america feel so strongly about this fund those places so that sandra can take the t in washington metro god down to metro dump out her hands and they will dump a bunch of pills in it every month or whatever she needs. i don't want to be involved in that. the catholic church doesn't want to be involved with that if it is that mandated that this is what the progressive community feels is best for society that we eliminate unwanted pregnancies and abortions that go along with it, i'm with you 100%. do it privately. you have the apparatus set up already. do it there. go. >> well, but there is also racial disparity when it comes to out-of-wedlock pregnancies, bill. it keeps women trapped in poverty. >> bill: you can't go down to planned parenthood? some reason you can't go? >> no. >> some guys on the right have their way planned parenthood would have no funding. >> bill: some guys on the right some phantom people.
5:13 pm
leslie, you know i'm right and you know i'm making sense. >> if you guys want us to go to planned parenthood fund that. >> bill: fund it privately, open your clinics and give sandra fluke and everybody else as many pills as they want. janine, what say you? >> well, okay. i think a lot of things. first of all, i think that the liberals have spun this whole issue -- they have taken it from the usurp patient government ledge just liberty which is where this all started and they have successfully taken this to contraception. you know, i think the liberals are like cimps the way kidnapper seduces a child hey, would you like a little bit of candy and we have become this entitlement society and the sacrifice is liberty. patrick henry used to say give me liberty or give miah death. and what i think is really dangerous about in this country bigger picture here is we are becoming give me liberty and give me give me. our country was built with our hands at work not with our hands out. >> bill: you have a sense in this country and a lot of
5:14 pm
people because president obama he may be reelected. this is not, you know, everybody thinking that the obama administration sandra fluke is crazy. we have whole television networks that are cheering them on. but the sense of entitlement i don't understand because i wasn't raised that way. all right? i don't understand the sense of entitlement like, okay, i have a social life, people. i have a social life, people. and i want you to pay for it. okay? >> bill: i'm going, what? i went to college, i didn't have any money, sandra. i didn't have any money. somehow i got by. somehow i painted houses so i could buy whatever i had to buy. but not for sandra. no. she wants it covered by the government. and this is driving me crazy, janine. how did that happen? >> me too. >> i think it's very very dangerous. give me liberty and give me give me. here is the catch. we can't have liberty and give me give me. you know,. >> bill: obviously 16
5:15 pm
trillion-dollar debt if we doubled it to 32 maybe we could do it. janine, i think you see the point here. we are not trying to put anybody down or ruin san collapse social life, all right? we are saying this is crazy out-of-proportion, leave american taxpayers alone and spend their money on important things that are vital to the nation. go. >> yes. we are not feeling antigovernment. no, no. we don't feel anti-women is antigovernment. >> bill do we want to pay now or pay later? that's the reality. >> bill: so now you have fallen back on the cliche that i just destroyed. >> no. you did not. you did not. >> bill: having you set up a private apparatus where you have clinics. you already have them. planned parenthood. you just blew that off and go back to your cliche if we don't pay for people's birth control there are going to be babies all over the place. i just told you you don't have to do it that way. provide privately what you are saying and you just blow it off. leslie? >> well, there are many of us, myself included that do write checks to organizations that
5:16 pm
help people on a private level. but i do think that as a society, it's our responsibility to look at the best interest of health. that's why i add condoms to this bill because then we could reduce sexually transmitted diseases such as h.i.v. >> bill: let's add condoms and let'sed a club medicine vacations. you have got the pills and the condoms you have got to get them together. let's get that in there and cruise ships. got to go for the cruise ships. single cruise ships. how about the law student cruise ships. organizations that have carnival cruise line pay for it. >> okay, sure. >> that's the point. >> bill: what good are the condoms and the pills if you don't have people coming together. come on, have you got to do it. >> if the government can do this, where can the government stop? we have over 300 million people. over 300 million people, i don't think we have a problem getting them together, guys. >> bill: okay, leslie. we should have -- it's too much of a burden to do this. we don't have enough money. let's do it from the

government point of view. >> give me, give me. >> bill: wealthy americans being demonized with that becoming a major campaign issue, adam corolla has some thoughts. lou dobbs on whether the obama administration wants gas prices to go even high tore promote his green agenda. dobbs up ahead. the employee of the month isss... the new spark card from capital one. spark miles gives me the most rewards of any small business credit card. the spark card earns double miles...

>> bill: unresolved problem segment tonight, if mitt romney does secure the republic nomination the debate will be based on class warfare. president obama saying he represents the folks and president obama is a member of the dreaded wealthy class. according to some polls, against affluent americans is rising. joining us now from burbank, california. adam corolla does commentary on a daily pod cast. do you see the attack on wealth in america getting
5:21 pm
worse, mr. corolla? >> yeah. >> it's horrible. >> it's horrible. it's envy that has turned into resentment that's turned into anger and essentially shame. it's psycho dynamic which is i wish i had that guy's expensive car, big house, whatever it is. then the next feeling is shame. i can't do. i'm not smart enough. i don't work hard enough. and then turns to anger. i'm going to throw a rock at that guy's car or his wife's fake boobies or whatever it is i can hit. it used to be the other way around. you would see a guy in a nice car and you would go hey, son, if you work real hard you can get a nice car like mr. jenkins, now it's all out the window. the fault of the wealthy as well. they are not even acting wealthy. mark cuban walks around in cargo shorts and flip-flops and a t-shirt. >> i don't know if people want
5:22 pm
to act wealthy. that's like thurston powell iii on gilligan's island. >> howled the -- howell the third, thank you. >> bill: when i was grofing up achievement was respected, mostly. >> i don't mean lighting a cigar with a $20 bill. people paying a ton in taxes saying, hey, shut up, i'm paying my fair share. as a matter of fact, you want to actually take that term fair share and really break it down because if all of us are sitting at a dinner table and there is 10 of us and the check is 500 bucks, i'm already paying 350 bucks. that's way more than my fair share. >> bill: here is what the pew research center found in january took a survey. 46% of americans believe most rich people are wealthy mainly because they know the right people or they were born into wealth. your uncle got you the job and you really didn't earn it. that's half the nation.
5:23 pm
how did that happen? >> ited convenient. it's easier. because if you just said well, it's hard work, and it's intestinal fortitude then next time you looked in the mirror you would see a poor guy with a bad work ethic and no intestinal fortitude. it's easy to do the daddy money, rich uncle. it all makes it easier because it lightens the shame burden on them. >> bill: it gives people who aren't in the circumstance which they would want to be in an excuse why they are not there. >> sure. it's like high school. remember you were in high school and you go that guy got an a because the teacher likes him and i got a d because the teacher has it out for them. >> bill: i knew i was stupid -- i saw other kids doing what you say. this is interesting. the people i see work hardest are immigrants. people from other countries who don't build in that
5:24 pm
excuse. they are going i'm glad i'm here because in pakistan i would never have a chance. now, if i work hard, i might be able to get a nice house. that mentality, when you talk to people who have just come here recently and lasts maybe 10, 15 years is markedly different than the people, americans who are not doing well in school and are not prospering in the workplace. i think people ought to understand that i will give you the last word, mr. corolla. >> you are right. we have lost the eye of the tiger. we are not hungry anymore. i mean our grandparents or great grandparents, whoever came over here in a boat came over here hungry, ready to roll their sleeves up and get to work. >> bill: now it's literally true. we are not hungry anymore because we know we can get the birth control pills for free. the government is going to send it to us and that's the way it is. we appreciate you coming on mr. corolla. nice to have you on the factor. plenty more as the factor moves along this evening. energy secretary cheefn chu
5:25 pm
says he doesn't want gas prices to go lower but now is he backtracking. lou dobbs on that. karl's jr. strikes again. swimsuit model now eating burgers, yeah, sure. we hope stay tuned to those reports.
5:26 pm
5:27 pm
5:28 pm
>> bill: factor follow segment tonight, secretary chu testifying before congress saying the bush the obama administration doesn't want to lower gas prices. now he is he clarifying. >> we very much want to not only slow the price but reverse the price of increase in gasoline if one reads my entire statement, it was very consistent with that. >> bill: okay. not quite but that's all right. we are not going to quibble. joining us now from santa fe, new mexico former energy secretary under president
5:29 pm
clinton governor richardson. is there really anything a president can do to control the oil companies from charging what they want to charge? i mean, for example, we have supply, plenty of supply in the u.s.a. right now because of the warm winter. yet, the speculators and iran and all of that, they are doing what they do and the american oil companies kind of take advantage of that and jack it up. is there anything the president can do? >> well, a president has very few options. and i think the president obama has been honest by saying there are no easy fixes. there are some short-term things you can do. one, the strategic petroleum reserve. what we have done in the bush administration we didn't sell barrels but we put them on the market that's one thing. >> bill: explain to the folks. you didn't sell them you put them on the market for bid and that drove the market price down? is that what that did? >> it did, yeah. it did drive it down, bill. in those days we were talking about 28, 29, $30.
5:30 pm
it drove it down for the short-term a little bit. you can also try to control speculators but that's very difficult. you can say you are going to try to control price gouging at the pump. that's difficult. one thing i did, which had mixed success but was criticized was i went around opec countries to the saudi arabias and i said, look, have you got to increase production because the price is too high. consumer countries are hurting. but you really don't have too many options. >> bill: all right. but, look, do you have some options though. look, in new mexico in your state, you know people have to drive. you are in a rural state. sometimes people drive a long time to go to work. stores aren't everywhere in your state they need gasoline. you also live in a poor statement. new mexico is not an affluent state. this takes from the people who are on the margin anyway. i say, look, the oil companies are basically setting a subjective price. it's not objective price.
5:31 pm
it's not supply and demand. it's plenty of supply in the u.s.a. right now. they are taking into all kinds of things calculations. if i were the president, i would be calling them, in all right? like john kennedy did to the steel manufacturers in 1960 and say, listen, have you got to give the country a break. you are going to send us back into recession. you can't be jacking it up as high as you possibly can because there is only seven or eight of you and you are in collusion on the anyway. you have got to give us a break. would that be the wrong thing to do. >> no. that's good. i like your new populist tone. i think that makes sense. >> bill: not new. >> job owning, call them in and say look, you get $4 billion in subsidies, we are going to take them away unless you give people a break. and the oil companies, what they say, unfortunately is, look. it's supply and demand. we can't control the price. yes, making -- >> bill: that's bull.
5:32 pm
they can control the price. they can't control what they pay pay in opec had when they import. they can't control. i understand that the price is the price on the world market. right now there is plenty of supply here think don't need to buy right now. they are looking down the road a year. and they are also exporting now to china. american oil, refined here and found here. it's going to china and other countries. 4% of it now. and when you were energy secretary it was no percentage. that didn't happen. the oil companies do have and correct me if i am wrong, they have room in the pricing. >> they do. and they could do more refining. they could do more renewable energy. they could take a number of steps. look, the way the president is talking makes sense. we need more diversity of our energy supplies, increase fuel efficiency in our vehicles. diversify our transportation
5:33 pm
sect. renewable energy. mandate 20% renewable in every state. i think the key, bill, is natural gas as a bridge vehicle. find a way to move to natural gas, which is plentiful, which is clean, make it a bridge to renewable energy. increase oil and gas production. and this administration has done that there is increases in oil and gas drilling in the united states. >> bill: that was all done under bush and then it came to fruition under obama. the drilling allowances were half what they were before bp. but, look, here is the bottom line on this. chu comes in earlier this week and says, you know, we really don't want to drive the price of oil down because the higher it gets the more of what you are talking about, natural gas and other alternatives, the more attractive they look. now, is he backtracking it, okay, fine, everybody makes mistakes, whatever it may be. but you can't do the alternative energy unless it's there, governor. solyndra. we reported last week about
5:34 pm
abound solar in colorado. putting billions of dollars and they are going bankrupt because the technology is not there. i say president obama has got to be more aggressive with the oil companies, i think you are agreeing with me here and i will give you the last word. go. >> i think call them in, that's a good thing. with the solyndras, bill, the problem is china is subsidizing their solar companies. we have got to be competitive. chu has been a good energy secretary. he is he a scientist. 60% of the job is managing the national labs. you are not an energy czar per se. what is he saying is that we need to diversify our energy splice. he has done a lot of great work on batteries and fuel efficiency. >> bill: let me correct you on china. china doesn't have a 16 trillion-dollar debt, okay? because they don't provide services for their people like we do. so they can afford to do a lot of speculation that we can't afford to do and i think the
5:35 pm
private sector can compete with them anyway, governor. nice to have you on the program. good to see you. when we come right back, lou dobbs on whether he believes the obama administration is telling the truth about gas prices. tiger woods and kate upton dominate the dumbest things of the week segment tonight. coming right back.

[ male announcer ] 5-hour energy.
5:38 pm
every day. bill political thanks for staying with us. i'm. >> bill: o'reilly. in the lou's the boss segment. governor richardson is the former governor of new mexico, i should point out but the former energy secretary under bill clinton. he says the same thing. they all say the same thing. it just shows. no disrespect. i don't think any of them know how to solve any problems in these areas. >> they don't know how to solve the problem and at the same time conform to their ideology and their partisan
5:39 pm
