down side before the drone happened. there is something else going on there as well. look at the game, using the head of who in the scone of a beed hading. it was the closest prop they had. look at the picture and see if you can figure out who it is. >> brian: it is hedge rolling around. >> gretchin: it is a different hair do. george w. bush his head was the first available for the beheading. >> steve: one of the show runners if you look at the stuff said "george bush's head appears in a couple of beed handwriting. it is not a choice or political statement. we used the period and his head was right there. since that hit the fan, there is a statement. hbo issued a statement. we are dismayed to see this and find it unacceptable and

said senator scott brown. there he is in our tv screen. senator from massachusetts up for reelection. good to see you. >> good to see you. >> gretchin: you are calling on j.p. morgan, and reported on jamie dimon, you are wanting jamie dimon and other people involved in the two billion loss to give up their bonuses. >> back in may i wrote a letter they have a call back provision. the way you send a message and make people pay attention is hit the wallet. with that provision you can take away the incentives and for the folks who caused the loss. >> brian: what did you learn yesterday? since he came forward he seemed tentative in the beginning but in the end strong and pushing back against regulation. >> we have regulation and need

to implementt dodd-frarving. i was tired of the banks acting like this with our money. and it will be affective i and i encouraged the administration not only to do what we asked them to do when we passed the bill. i am glad he was there. but i think it will send a real message and take away the bonus money. >> steve: you are in a real tight race right now and you are up over elizabeth warren by 13 percent. she would like your job. she tried to tie you to what is going on in j.p. morgan. listen to this. >> my opponent scott brown who is named one of wall street favorite senators has been out there negotiating in secret to try to weaken the rules and delay the rules and try to create the loop holes in the rules and in other words those guys made it clear to wall

street, if you elect them, they promise to stand with wall street all the way. >> steve: is that what you have been up to in >> it is funny, when you are running for high elective office. you have to pass a test and it is about truthful credibility and honesty and she's failed that test as evidence by her claiming to be a native american and making misrepresentation not only to harvard and penn. it is no different here. she can rewrite her own history but not rewrite mine. i was the deciding vote and proud to be so. she was on the whoit white lawnn saying it is the strongest bill. i am not sure what change would she failed that test. >> gretchin: it is interesting how she is criticizing that. your stance on this is maybe against what republicans would feel about it. yes, and so my question to

you. did you have the question because of being in a state of massachusetts as a republican you have to have independent views. >> i am the second most bipartisan. i vote 54 percent with party. everyone else is 97 or above. i have been in the white house with my insider trading bill and i was honored to be in the rose garden when he signed that. my proud funding bill and allows start ups and businesses to raise millions on line. this election is about the economy, jobs in the economy, and i am not going to raise taxes. i want to address our debt. and i am not a jobs destroyer like professor warren want to be. we need to focus on the issues that matter. every class. i have worked since i am here and many years.

for an agent, call the number that appears on your screen. eye the economy is improving and he got free advice for big name demdeps who say quit talking about the economy. voters are not buying it and so should he change his message? we have both here and dressed nice and deserved to be talked to both on the five and other things. first of all, the president is geting a message from james

carvel. don't pretend like everything is good. should he take it forward. >> got to make it clear he understands what people are experiencing. people are anxious about the economy and future. i think the carvel message is important. if the president thought he could say. yes, the private sector is doing fine, it doesn't necessarily trandsalate with most people on the ground who go to the grocery store and gas station and worried about can their kid get a job. >> brian: the economy not good all fingers point to him is that trouble. >> i do glea he - agree that he needs to look. he hinted about what he would do in the second term. it is at same policy as last term. he talked about energy and solor and wind . he has to get off of that especially when you look add

fail of solyndra . more he blames and looks like he is devoid of worries and he is a weak letter. when president bush took responsibility but he had his hand on the wheel. >> you have monitors. 1994, david axelrod upset that bush 41 talked about progress in a bad economy. let's listen. >> you cite the statistics that the economy is do improve being. you do damage to yourself and you are frustrating the alienated class more. >> brian: he should take his own advice, juan? >> you have to provide context. people are smart . we are going through something different than the '91 reseddings. it is serious. we had a report from the fed about the amount of wealth that families have lost.

i think everybody understands that the reseddings - recession had a bad on our lives. i president obama is talking about it. >> more blame. that axelrod sounds perfect. the same thing happened to president bush. at least bush 41 said things are starting to get better. but they are painting him as out of touch. if the president is fine. he will have the same problem as 41 did in the supermarket. they accused him being out of touch. >> brian: you write about that in the daily news. one thing i find that is intriguing about it seems like democrats and republicans and authors agree. it is impossible to penetrate the president's inner sanctum.

high profile democrats can't get there. >> steve: i don't have hear. that is a fact. you look at the people who are around and they go back to chicago days of the initial campaign and they are a cliche. and people who earn their way in his confidence and he has a small of people who trust each other . the message came lieu. there was a bad few weeks, but they don't trust new comers and i think that is why the message was sent so publicly and president clinton sent it publicly. and why axelrod is on the stump. >> brian: it is a nasinating discussion. thanks for having me. >> you are part of the inner circle,ibly an. >> brian: bristal palin like

a developing story, air force cv helicopter crashed during a training mission, injuring all four crew members in florida. the crew taken to an area hospital. their conditions not being released at this time. the osprey flies like an airplane, but lands like a helicopter. the cause of the crash is under investigation. we're getting a look at brand-new video of an suv that slammed right into a house on new york's long island. you can see only the back half of it sticking out of the side of the house. we're told at least one person was hurt, taken to the hospital. no word yet on what caused that crash. >> steve: looks like the bedroom. >> brian: that's trouble. >> gretchen: lance armstrong, in jeopardy now. the anti-doping agency planning to file charges against him. agency says he used performance enhancing drug, as well as blood transfusions, testosterone and masking agents. in a statement, he says this: these are the same charges and the same witnesses that the justice department chose not to

pursue after a two-year investigation. i have never doped and unlike many of my accusers, i have competed as an endurance athlete for 25 years with no spike in performance, passed more than 500 drug tests and never failed one. doctors told him he'd never walk again. a california teen proving them wrong at his high school graduation. patrick, paralyzed from the neck down since he was struck bay car nearly 18 years ago. with the help of a custom made walker and six hours a day in physical therapy, he beat the odds. >> it was honestly like one of the best days of my lifement maybe like do jumping jacks at college graduation or something like that. i don't know. >> gretchen: that's not all he's proud of. he also graduated with a 4.0

grade point average and will attend usc in the fall. congratulations. >> steve: that's great. >> brian: meanwhile, president obama and mitt romney will be trading jabs on the economy today. that's just a hunch, but because they have dueling speeches and both want the same job. wendell goler live at the white house. >> they will both be in must win ohio today. mr. obama in cleveland. romney in cincinnati. the president aims to make the case that the election is about two different economic prescriptions for the country and romney will insist it's about changing an economic policy that has failed. the two men battling for independents' votes. a poll suggests more independents view both of their economic policies unfavorly, though they have stronger views about the president's policies. earlier this week, mr. obama argued that romney's policies have been tried and failed. >> they don't have any new ideas.

i am telling you, i want you all to pay attention over the next five months and see if they're offering a a single thing that they did not try when they were in charge because you won't see it. it will be the same stuff, the same oaky dock. >> the president is trying to tie mitt romney to president bush, while mr. romney is trying to tie mr. obama to the struggling economy with the idea he doesn't know how it fix it. yesterday romney looked ahead to today's speech by the president. >> his rhetoric will be soaring and eloquent, but i'd suggest a look at the record more than the words. the policies he would take are very different than the ones i described. without question, he will stifle our energy resources in coal, natural gas, and oil. he will, of course, implement obamacare, including -- i think you're going to see more and more coverage mandates, meaning more items have to be included

in policies and that will make them much more expensive. >> strategists in both parties consider ohio's 18 electoral votes to be critical. no republican in modern times has won the white house without those votes. >> gretchen: thanks very much. >> steve: let's go out to colorado springs right now, joining us on this thursday as she did every thursday, there is michelle malkin. good morning to you. >> good morning, steve. >> steve: we're hearing a lot from david axelrod these days. he's the number one guy who is -- whose job is to get the president four more universities am it's interesting, we got into the way back machine and found a sound bite of him back in 1994 where essentially he was criticizing george w. bush for talking up a bad economy, saying it frustrates the middle class. here is mr. axelrod with darker hair. >> one of the interesting things about this is that as you cite these statistics that say the economy is improving, you almost do political damage to yourself. if you stand up and claim great

progress, you're only frustrating this alienated middle class more. that was the key. >> steve: michelle, he also went ton say and bush was always talking about the economy. this from an advisor whose president finished 100 rounds of golf so far? >> yeah. that's right. well, i think his mustache has bent over the years and his common sense examine wisdom, it's sort of like the reverse aging process where he loses wisdom with age. and i think the parallels to the bushes are interesting because of course back in the late '80s and 1990s, the democrats and strategist likes david axelrod were casting the bushes as imperial presidencies and now, david axelrod works for one. it's not just the gall thing and the incessant vacations and fund-raisers. it's surrounding himself with

elites like george clooney and sarah jessica parker, at the same time he wags his fingers at the republicans for being out of touch. classic. i love this. let's have more retro david axelrod. >> gretchen: let's go to a new survey that came out. there is another one that says actually independents are not going to be going so much for obama as they did last time around potentially u about this one is about what the world thinks about him. the world seems to have dropped by 30% when you look at european countries and china and russia and japan, what do you make of that. >> well, clearly the global apology tours that obama has conducted over the last three, 3 1/2 years have not worked. but i'd have to say that if you look closer at these poll numbers, a lot of the animosity comes from the same places that have always detested and despised us and these are dictators, dictatorships and places in the middle east that do not appreciate america's role in defending freedom in the

world. and the things that obama has done that have alienated the world are the things that bush did in the war on terror. these are things like the drone strikes and, of course, keeping gitmo open after he refused to listen to barak obama refused to listen to eric holder. i think it teaches you a lesson that defending america does not win popularity contests. >> brian: and never will. let's talk about this, any day now we could be finding out -- we know sometime in june the supreme court will rule whether obamacare's mandate is constitutional or not. you believe republicans, some of them are pushing for obamacare to stay put. >> unfortunately, it's not just a belief. it is the reality. you have republican senators like roy blunt who have come out foursquare in favor of preserving what he believes to be the most quote, unquote, popular provisions of the obamacare mandate. i'm talking about things like the slacker mandate that forces

insurers to put kids up to the age of 26 on plans. this is the heart of the coercion of socialized medicine and yet here you have these big government republicans who once were full of full repeal of obamacare making noises about keeping them. who needs enemies when you have these people making noises like this? this comes at a time when there are new studies showing that of course the slacker mandate has increased premiums and when you increase premiums, you kick hundreds of thousands of people off of insurance coverage every year. >> steve: one other thing i know you've been following, the commerce department now apparently considering naming arab-americans socially and economically disadvantaged minority group so they would be eligible for handouts. >> yeah. this kind of commerce department preferential treatment program has been in place for decades. if you look at the list, the real question is, who doesn't

qualify as a disadvantaged minority anymore? i think it's also worth pointing out that if you look at census and economic data, arab-americans happen to be among the wealthiest of minority populations in the country and the most well educated. in other words, the least deserving of this kind of pandering treatment. i think it's just bottom line commerce department uses these programs to politically redistribute wealth. >> steve: not surprising. >> gretchen: michelle, calls great to see you. have a great weekend. we'll see you next week. >> brian: straight ahead, take a close look at your tv screen of the closer. even closer. those are thieves you see trying to break into the truck as it's flying down the highway. >> steve: nerves of steel. then first the banking crisis. then the foreclosure crisis. now the debt crisis. after all this, how can you begin to rebuild the american dream? real estate guru bob massi here with an answer live from vegas [ male announcer ] what's in your energy drink?

deficiencies deficiencies deficiencies and foreclosures, they're starting to get their affairs in order, so the lenders who have been sitting on inventory because of all the different things that they know were done illegally and otherwise, they're now gearing back up to take their homes back. so that's basically where these statistics are going. there is also other factors, but that's the primary things. they recognize they did things they shouldn't have done. they've been sanctioned for it. $25 billion settlement that came out in march. now they're gearing back up. the interesting part about this is remember, it cost lenders quite a bit of money tougher close and so they're going to have to maintain these properties. but homeowners are going to be faced with losing more homes because they're gearing back up to foreclose on properties. >> gretchen: so we had that triple whammy i allude to. the foreclosure, banking crisis, now the debt crisis. so what questions should we be asking ourselves to begin to try to rebuild and see that silver

lining? >> you know, in rebuild, there are dreams from the shattered dreams. one of the things i want our viewers to understand is to try to put things in perspective. it's been very tough times in america. in the last 3 1/2 to four years. but let's remember, god willing, if we're healthy and the kids are healthy, then that's the most important thing in our lives. we can rebuild and remember, you are the home. the family is the home. it's a house. we can rebuild from that. one of the things i want to stress to our viewers, that we're going to be talking about in weeks to come other areas that affect us from the real estate crisis. but how to sort of put these pieces of the puzzle back together and god willing, we'll be able to show them some good tips in the future to help them. >> gretchen: all right. so if people are out there and they're look for this kind of guidance to set the path for recovery, where do they go? >> you know, gretchen, more than

ever before, just like the old family doctor, if you will, people really need more professional advice than ever before. i cannot stress to our viewers enough, find a lawyer that is competent, that's lived long enough to go through crisis in their life and seeing things. and if nothing else, just go talk to professionals to try to help put their affairs in order. what are the things that they need to do? that will be some of the things we're talking about in rebuilding your dreams. these are some of the steppingstones to start rebuilding, but they have a competent professional that could sit down and say okay. this is what's happened. you had to file bankruptcy. you do have this credit card debt. you did lose your house. okay, guys. this is what we're going to do. it's inexpensive to do these type of things with a professional now because of the fact that you can start rebuilding. you don't have to spend a lot of money on a lawyer to be able to get this type of advice. i can't urge our viewers enough

to find somebody capable in your area to help you with that. >> gretchen: all right. great advice and we hope you can help a bunch of folks. thanks so much. >> thank you. >> gretchen: you can e-mail bob your questions by logging on to our web site. click2houston.comer on the shattered dreams icon. coming up on "fox & friends," give a homeless a puppy and that will keep them off the streets? i guess the homeless person. details on this controversial new plan straight ahead. and then, who should investigate the white house over security leaks? they say eric holder and his men and women are just fine of the but can they really be trusted? republican senator chambliss joins us next with his thoughts ♪

it would call for attorney general eric holder to appoint a special independent counsel to investigate the trio of leaks coming out of the white house. this after the attorney general chose two political appointees within the department of justice to lead the investigation. joining us now is one of those calling for a special counsel who is alarmed by the leaks coming out of somewhere, somehow, but into the newspapers. senator from georgia, chambliss, ranking member of the senate intelligence committee. senator, what progress have you made in terms of getting a different special prosecutor in there and not these u.s. attorneys? >> actually made none. we've been stone called by the administration. obviously the attorney general appointed two who i'm sure are good lawyers to do the investigation, but the fact of the matter is, number one, they're political appointees. they were appointed by this administration to their positions. they are answerable to the attorney general.

what we need is somebody that's independent, that's outside the realm of this administration because when you read these articles and you see what leaks took place, everything goes back towards the white house. when you have obama quoted from the situation room, you have axelrod inside the situation room, somebody has got to be able to be independent enough to investigate thoroughly the white house's involvement. >> brian: i never heard of two attorneys. they're going to get in each other's way. you need a leader to lead this and they have huge staffs for that reason. >> that's another obvious problem, brian. they both have been given responsibility to do investigation of different and separate stories. well, this is a cascade of leaks, a true volume of leaks like we've never seen before. you need one person who has the power and authority to subpoena from the attorney general without having to go to the attorney general to get a subpoena as these guys are going to have to do.

>> brian: you think it was tom donnellan? >> i don't know. i mean, obviously that's what the investigation is for, but certainly he is the national security advisor. he was in the situation room when these discussions took place, but i have no idea at this point. >> brian: i want to bring up something else 'cause i'm very interested in that, but real quick, if you think this is more serious than the wowry plane investigation because senator biden then wanted independent and he got it. >> yeah, i mean, who have the two loudest members of the united states senate calling for a special counsel in that case? barak obama and joe biden. and the bush administration did appoint a special counsel, gave them authority to act as if they were the attorney general. that's a key difference because that special counsel was not responsible to the attorney general. he had subpoena authority, he could convene a grand jury of

the he had real power as an investigator. these guys, irrespective of how good a lawyer and prosecutors they are, they simply don't have the power and authority to do that. >> brian: so from the bin laden raid to the virus to having a saudi being a double agent inside yemen, all those things are exposed, to the cooperation with the movie, but it just became too much and republicans stepped up and senator diane finestein outraged. so we're going to track this and hopefully make progress and at the very least, get it to stop. always great to see you. >> aim here. >> brian: coming up on "fox & friends," big breaking news on the economy in a matter of moments. weekly jobless numbers about to be released. holding their breath, i imagine, everybody at the white house. eric policy be here breathing in and out freely. he'll be here it break us down and he's using doughnuts to describe where our economy is heading. eric, watch this. it's not a movie. it's really a group of bees

tour number 1, which is the centerpiece of the entire redesigned site down here in lower manhattan. they will also be meeting with governors christy and cuomo. all of that will be taking place sometime after 4:30. takes about ten minute, 15 to clear out all of the traffic to allow them to get here. ever he leaves here in lower manhattan, he's going further north to sarah jessica parker's house. the actress, she and her husband are hosting a private fund-raiser. it's our understanding they're having furniture brought in, which is private. he will then leave there to go to another fund-raiser that's going to be at the plaza hotel. that one, will be hosted by newark mayor cory booker. mariah carey scheduled to perform. this will be the first time competent booker will be together since he supported the rhetoric associated with the bain capitol from a couple of weeks back. at one point there was some tension with president obama.
