>> i'm going to try it crescan style. i'm thinking -- twilight? could that be it? >> kristin stewart. >> incredible. it's a gift that i have! >> and i didn't know what a twihard was earlier. they're all the fans of the twilight series. >> that's right. >> try harder. >> have a great show, guys. >> try to watch! >> "fox & friends" starts right now. >> good morning, everyone. today is thursday, july 26th. i'm alisyn camerota in for gretchen today. he turned around our olympics. so what's mitt romney's plan for theirs? the presumed g.o.p. nominee for president arriving in london with a message for the united states' top ally. >> meanwhile, here in new york city, the mayor, michael bloomberg playing politics with tragedy. even calling on the police to strike over gun control. one problem with that -- police can't strike. that's illegal. what is the mayor doing? we'll tell you what he said.

>> all right. here's another entry for the wussification file of america. her son gets a c in chemistry. what does the mom do? sues the teacher, of course. >> of course. >> "fox & friends" challenging you to watch the whole show! >> what if people can't watch the whole show? what if they have to go to work or something like that? >> that's their job. >> you're starting to sound like mayor bloomberg. >> go on disability. is wussifiction really a word or is it a slang? >> a person from tennessee uses that in his act quite a bit. >> it's our producer gavin's favorite term. he loves it. >> i guess it's the webster

hadden dictionary for a while. if we can get the mob off the trail, we could finally see his face. >> indeed. ali is in for gretch on vacation today. >> thank you. pleasure to be with you. let's get to your headlines right now. we have brand new video to share with you. mitt romney in london this morning looking casual there. he just wrapped up his first meeting with former president obama tony blair. he'll meet with current prime minister david cameron in three hours and romney meeting with some of england's top financial and foreign policy leaders. tomorrow, he'll head to the olympic games and later in the week, he'll meet with leaders in israel and poland. charged with murdering 13 people at fort hood being told to shave his beard or someone will shave it for him. the major said it's an expression of muslim faith and adds he does not care if it violates army regulations. he must get rid of it before his court-martial begins next month. he found him in contempt of

court and fined him $1,000 already. a 14-year-old boy under investigation for pointing -- >> laser pointer. >> what did you say? >> laser printer. >> by the way, they're very good. you can't get them in color. >> i have no idea what the prompter said but i believe you're right. laser pointer. under investigation for pointing a green light at the pilot of a police chopper. there's a lot of p's in this. they want to know if he did the same thing to that jet blue flight last month. he was released to the custody of his mother. he was not charged yet. thank you. talk about nerves of steel. take a look at this jaw dropping photo of a crew teetering on a boom crane at one world trade center tower. they are 93 stories off the ground. this is making me nervous. the photo reminding a lot of folks of this iconic snap shot from 1932, ironworkers enjoying a lunch break high above rock center. the workers at the freedom tower can relate. they say it's too much of a hassle to go down 1,200 feet to

get a snack. >> i thought that was fake. that's real? of those guys having lunch out there. >> absolutely. >> that's the longest lunch ever. you know what, guys? you don't have to keep it to an hour. you can take your time. >> it would be a long lunch. if you're sitting right there, are you in any hurry to get off that? >> yes. >> it's that first step. >> take your time. >> and now it's rockefeller center diagonally behind us. meanwhile, there's more news when it comes to the mystery behind why james holmes, the suspected shooter took the action he did. >> there are disturbing new details emerging that holmes may have tried warning someone about the midnight movie massacre in colorado. fox news learning exclusively that holmes sent a notebook to a psychiatrist that was full of details about how he was going to kill people. >> alicia acuna live in aurora with the very latest. good morning to you. >> hi. good morning, guys. foxnews.com has this exclusive report in which it details more

about this notebook that a law enforcemt source, two law enforcement sources, rather, say that james holmes sent to a psychiatrist before the shooting. one of the law enforcement sources tells foxnews.com that that notebook sat in a mail room since july 12th, remaining undelivered. a claim that the university denied in a press release yesterday. according to the report, the notebook details how holmes was going to kill people. >> right now, we know that james holmes committed this atrocity. it's not a who done it. it's why he did he do it? the notebook might reveal was it the kind of grievance or was it something delusional? was he hearing voices in his head? i think this notebook is going to be critical evidence. >> we also want to introduce you a little bit more to one of the victims of friday's shooting. this is rebecca wingo. she was part of the intelligence unit in the u.s. air force and had two daughters, ages 5 and 9.

she was a big fan of superheroes. here's her mother. >> rebecca was the mo rock star of a woman that you ever met. if you did not meet her, i'm so sorry for you. you totally missed out. if she met you, she made a friend of you. >> yesterday evening, the residents of the apartment building where james holmes lived were allowed to return home. they had been evacuated since friday when police found explosives in holmes' apartment, they say, and a little bit of good news this morning. we are hearing that the three hospitals in which the victims of the shooting are now being treated have announced that they will either wipe out or severely limit the medical bills that are mounting for these victims. and as you guys know, some of these victims don't have medical insurance. so this will come as a huge

relief. back to you. >> could really help. i know one -- >> we also know, i can't wait to hear more from the university of colorado because we know the day he bought the gun was the day he failed that oral report, that long exam. we also do know he colored his hair orange back in may. that's when he could have begun to come off the rails. >> they think something ignited because he was failing at school and not being successful. >> that's right. well, i'll tell you what, mayor bloomberg, the nanny mayor of new york city who tries to control where people eat, smoke and do in public and elsewhere shortly -- just hours after this senseless shooting out in colorado, he tried to make this a political issue. he tried to pin barack obama and mitt romney into coming out and declaring that there's too much violence and they have to do something about it. >> remember, he says don't jump to conclusions. he says look, don't think that this is islamic extremism.

it could be somebody mad about obamacare. he immediately came out and went to his pet issue and that is gun control. he weighed in on it and actually did it on another network and called for something extraordinary. >> let's listen to what mayor bloomberg had to say about this. >> i don't understand why the police officers across this country don't stand up collectively and say we're going to go on strike. we're not going to protect you unless you, the public, through your legislature do what's required to keep us safe. after all, police officers want to go home to their families. and we're doing everything we can to make their job more difficult but more importantly more dangerous by leaving guns in the hands of people who shouldn't have them. >> all right, so there's a couple of problems with that statement. >> kind of. >> one in which he -- we'll get to in a moment. it's illegal for the police officers to go on strike. >> so he's calling for the police to strike even though they can't legally. >> basically, yes.

you said that it's his pet issue and it's his pet issue. he is one of the mayors against illegal guns, that's an actual committed -- >> plaxico burres is going to jail when he shot himself in the leg and he did for a year and a half. >> he's one of the founders of this. this is his cause. >> that's right. >> this is something he's been talking about not just because of this but for years. >> but the fact that he would weigh in on this issue just hours after it happened, it seems so politically distasteful for -- to many people including chris christie, the governor of new jersey right across the river. listen. >> well, let him go on strike in new york and we'll see how that works. i mean, you know, if mayor bloomberg is obviously passionate about this issue and he's not restricting himself to staying out of politics during tragedies. this is a guy who is very outspoken, by the way, on not

allowing politics to enter the tragedy of 9/11. i wish he would show the same restraint concerning this tragedy. >> uh-huh. michelle malkin makes a point that it's not just illegal for the police officers to go on strike, it's also, she says, illegal for the mayor to suggest or propose they go on strike. here's michelle malkin. >> michael bloomberg who as an elected government official essentially endorsed anarchy. he called on police officers who are paid and who are employed by the government to protect and to serve, to go on strike! and then afterwards, he had to eat his own words because, of course, his lawyers probably reminded him of something called the taylor ordinance which prohibits government officials from officially endorsing public strikes like this which endanger the public. these people are not -- not concerned about public welfare,

public safety or self-defense and individual empowerment because if they were, they would be gravelling on the ground apologizing! >> i find it really interesting that we're talking about gun control and everybody is getting -- some people are making this a political issue like the mayor and governor taking him on and we all know that the american people have responded. gun sales are through the roof and in colorado, i think they're up like 40% because people feel as though, whether you agree with it or not, if i'm sitting in the movie theater tomorrow and some idiot comes in with orange hair, i want to shoot him first. >> what's going to happen? will there be changes to the gun laws? no, people on both sides including the president's spokesperson and mitt romney have said, you know what? there is a lot of violence out there but we've got a lot of gun laws. let's just enforce the ones that are on the books. >> and by the way, two of the last three days, much better tie than me. >> you like this? >> much better tie. >> this is a -- look at this, our buddy donald trump. >> donald trump. >> and that's solid gold

plated. >> is it? this is amazing. he puts a cugeran right there on every tie. i don't know if you've noticed but today i am dressed not in fifty shades but one shade of gray. >> good luck with the other 49! >> ladies, simmer down out there. this is one of the shades. >> they never do! >> colonel lawmaker or life saver? one soldier says all of them. absolutely. >> got our orders to go to iraq and my wife was eight months pregnant. allan west saved my life. >> he's here first with congressman west to talk about it. >> and then thousands of kids not allowed to graduate because they failed state exams. one problem, they didn't fail. the education experts screwed up. so they failed? that's what i'm saying. >> ok. >> i think i'm saying. if you have copd like i do,

you know how hard it can be to breathe and what that feels like. copd iludes chronic bronchitis and emphysema. spiva helps corol my copd symptoms

by keeping my airways open a full 24 hours. plus, it reduces copd flare-ups. spiriva is the only once-daily inhaled copd maintenance treatment that does both. and it's steroid-free spiriva does not replace fast-acting inhalers for sudden symptoms. tell yr doctor if you have kidy problems, glaucoma, trouble urinating, or an enlarged prostate. these may worsen with spiriva. discuss all medicines you ta, even eye drops. stop taking spiriva and seek immediate medical help if yr breathing suddenly worsens, your throat or tongue swells, you get hives, vision changes or eye pain, or problems passing ure. other side effects include dry mouth and constipation. nothing can reverse copd. spiriva helps me breathe better. does breathing with copd weigh you down? ask your doctor if spiriva can help.

according to ford, the works fuel saver package could literally pay for itself. jim twitchel is this true? yes it's true. how is this possible? proper tire inflation, by using proper grades of oil, your car runs more efficiently, saves gas. you could be doing this right now? yes i could, mike. i'm slowing you down? yes you are. my bad. the works fuel saver package. just $29.95 or less after rebate. only at your ford dealer. so, to sum up, you take care of that, you take care of these, you save a bunch of this. that works.

>> new political ad about to take florida by storm crediting colonel allan west with saving a soldier's life. >> before we went into iraq, he gave me his body armor and we were driving with night goggles on and this car came driving by with an ak-47 bomber and fired shots. if i didn't have that body armor, i don't think i'd be here. >> joining me now is the soldier featured in that ad, former army sergeant himself and congressman allan west who america has gotten to know as a congressman. we don't see you that often in the uniform. tell me the guy that you knew when you served together. >> the guy i knew was first class, first rate american

citizen. a true leader. when allan west first became our commander, it was quite a bit of anticipation. because when he came in there, he was definitely a complete turn from our last commander and, you know, everybody was kind of wondering what kind of a leader are we getting ourselves into, you know, because he -- he really stood out amongst other commanders with the fourth infantry division. >> colonel, do you remember the circumstance with all you've been through professionally and then when you serve all those years, do you remember the circumstances in which you did get body armor for the sarergea and others in your unit? >> absolutely right. one of the things we were concerned about, we did not have enough of the quality body armor with the plates, robert delgado who was my driver at the time had what we called the chicken vest. as you know in the story, his wife was about eight months pregnant when we deployed and so i told him i wanted to make sure he got back home to be with his

newborn son. so i gave him my body armor with the plates and i took the chicken vest and i think it was june of 2003 when we were heading out on a very important raid operation we got hit with a drive-by shooting from a couple of vehicles going up u.s. highway 1 and fortunately, that body armor enabled the bullet to be ricochetted off of robert's chest and through his arm. >> unbelievable. sergeant, why was it important for you to tell this story? >> i just think that it's important, you know, a lot of people have blasted allan west and have said things that are negative and untrue and i just wanted people to know the kind of american that they've put in congress and that i feel that he should be re-elected. i really want floridians to understand the kind of leader they have now and we need that kind of leadership in our government now. >> and i think it's safe to say, congressman, as you were successful in this last election and you're basically in a new

district now. you're not doing this for the money. you weren't doing it when you were in camouflage for the money and you're not doing it now that you're in a necktie. >> no, absolutely not. you know, we serve because we believe in service. we believe in a commitment. we believe in sacrifice in this great nation. my father served in world war ii and my older brother in vietnam. i have a nephew that's also an artillery officer serving as a captain currently in the united states army so when you -- whether you're in uniform or out, it's always about focused on this constitutional republic. >> what's it like for you to hear the sergeant talk about you like this? >> it's very humbling because i don't see it as anything great or mac -- magnamous that i did. i think any commander should be willing to sacrifice himself just as you're in a suit and tie, the people on capitol hill should be willing to sacrifice themselves and all that they have much like the 56 men that signed the declaration of

independence said they would pledge their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor for these great united states of america and i think that's the type of commitment and character and integrity that we need in this country again. >> so i see it on the right and i see it on the left and right in front of us now, america is getting a chance to see it. robert delgado who no longer has to dodge i.e.d.'s now that he's driving the streets of houston. >> always a pleasure, thanks. see you later. >> coming up ahead on our shoeshgs a new poll revealed that 8 out of 10 americans are fed up with ads like this. >> obama is giving taxpayer money to big donors. and then watching them lose it. good for them. bad for us. >> mitt romney is not the solution. he's the problem. >> but why do most political strategists say they work? are they right? and the wussification of america reaches a fever pitch. her son gets a c in chemistry. what does the mom do? she sues. can you believe it?

>> 24 minutes past the hour. time for quick headlines. recession has crush the dreams of thousands of entrepreneurrom bureau shows more than 170,000 small businesses closed between 2008 and 2010. and new york city's department of education getting an f for this blunder. "the new york post" revealing more than 7,000 elementary and middle school students were wrongly barred from graduation. steve? >> oopsy daisy. meanwhile, negative ads seem to be everywhere! >> obama is giving taxpayer money to big donors. and then watching them lose it.

good for them. bad for us. >> mitt romney is not the solution. he's the problem. >> where did all the obama stimulus money go? friends, donors, campaign supporters, special interest grums. >> you got to say this about mitt romney, he sure knows how to go for the gold for himself. >> candidate obama lied about hillary clinton. >> so shame on you, barack obama! >> that's just a snippet of what's out there. new polls say americans are fed up with negative ads and everything else. and they're harming country. joining us right now, carl anderson is a supreme knight of the knights of columbus who conducted the polls. great to have you as well. so did this surprise you that your poll found that nearly 8 in 10 americans are frustrated by the tone of the politics of this country? >> well, it's certainly a huge number so yes, we were surprised and then some of the other questions we asked, they were also almost as strong.

3 out of 4 americans believe the situation is getting worse. 2 out of 3 americans believe that it's hurting our political process, our governing process. these are huge numbers and as a result of that, we decided we should maybe give the american public a vehicle by which they could express more of this. >> sure. i'm sure a lot of people will wake up and say i feel the same way. i'm frustrated because they're talking about i need 20 years worth of some candidate's income tax returns and stuff like that. little things rather than the big issues. that's what we want to talk about. the big issues. >> 75% of americans are saying we spend too much time criticizing -- the politicians criticizing each other instead of talking about policies so it's time we -- now that so many americans agree at what's wrong, it's time we speak out and say we need a better tone in this country, more civil tone and maybe we can turn a corner and begin to reverse this process. >> good luck. here's a portion of your poll.

overall, the candidates not spend 23% talking about the issues or 66% attacking the opponents. that's what your polling found. carl, here's the thing. the stark reality of it politically is negative ads work. because people see it and they go oh, i didn't know that the other guy did that. and suddenly, they have a more negative feeling toward that person. >> well, i think it's not that every negative ad is wrong. it's the tone. and it's the civility of the discussion. so if your opponent, for example, is offiskating his record and trying to come up with something, the public needs to know that. we can express those kinds of issues in a civil way so that's why we have this petition, out of line petition drive. it's civilityinamerica.org to try to begin to refocus on what the debate should be like. >> give us an example of rather than these negative super ads

out there right now, what would you like to see? >> i would like to see not name calling like for example, vulture capitalism. we have a problem with venture capitalism. let's talk about canpitalism or how somebody deals as a venture capitalist and get away from name calling. that's the kind of issue. kind of approach that we'd like to see. >> all right, carl anderson with the knights of columbus joining us today from stanford, connecticut, thank you very much for sharing your poll with us. >> thank you very much. >> what do you think about that? e-mail us, friends at foxnews.com. dogs, cats and even dead people are allowed to vote? that's true. it's happening. a new case of voter fraud you have to hear to believe. then mitt romney right now in london kicking off his overseas tour. what's his strategy here as he meets with the united states top ally? that man, karl rove, the architect about to break it down. yeah, he's waving to me. good morning. first, you know who karl rove has a lot in common with?

>> well, according to a new

poll, 18% of americans still blame george bush for the bad economic recovery. these people are called the obama administration, yes. those people are called the obama administration. >> but in that same poll, the majority blamed president obama for the economy for really the first time that i can remember. >> somebody who knows a lot about polls and politics and the george w. bush administration, that man, karl rove. good morning to you. >> good morning. how is everybody? >> we're ok. mitt romney as we wake up is over in london. explain the strategy of mitt romney going over to the london olympics and is this part of a sttegy? i mean, a lot of people don't know he was involved in the -- >> yeah, it gives a chance for the campaign to highlight the fact that he was called to rescue the 2002 winter olympics in salt lake in the midst of a horrible bout of mismanagement and corruption and about ready to collapse and he was asked to come in by the host committee and save it. so this gives him a chance to

sort of highlight his public service having left his career at bain in order to take a leave of absence to run the olympics. >> is the down side or the risk, i should say, that when he goes on this international tour, that he will have to spell out with more detail his foreign policy positions which he hasn't done yet? >> this is a welcome opportunity to do so. first of all, it puts him on a big stage. we wake up this morning and there's a picture of him meeting with tony blair. looks presidential. he'll meet with prime minister cameron and meet with the leader of the liberal democrats, deputy prime minister kleig and then he'll be going to poland and israel. this gives him a chance to both articulate his view of foreign affairs and sort of emphasize some things that will have domestic political ramifications. polish-american voters, we have a problem with poland. the current administration dissed them early on by unilaterally withdrawing an agreement on radar systems for european missile defense without preconsultation with the poles, it really irritated them and

recently, the president referred to the nazi death camps in poland as polish concentration camps thereby also upsetting them and has not met with their leader and so on. this gives them a chance to send a nice subtle message to the polish-americans in michigan. >> we know just -- and it's the right thing to do. he's not going to be criticizing the president's foreign policy when he's overseas but back here at home, you have the obama administration possibly in the re-election campaign on its heels for the first time in a big way and it's over the president's seem to be knee jerk reaction -- knee jerk comments when he was talking about you didn't build that comment. >> right. >> and things being taken out of context. american crossroads which you run has picked up on that. >> yeah, we have. here's the quote. if you got a business, you didn't build that. someone else made that happen. the internet didn't get invented on its own. government research created the internet so all the companies could make money off the internet. this is sort of the hostility to private enterprise and it's actually not true. there's a brilliant piece by gordon crobitz in "the wall

street journal" the monday after or the tuesday after this appeared pointing out that the internet was invented by private enterprise, and that for 30 -- a guy named bennett surf had written the protocols for the internet. the government had them in a language for 30 years and it was private enterprise that built the internet so the president was wrong. but this remark has hit a raw nerve among small business people. >> absolutely. the thing is this is nothing new. it was a couple of years ago with joe the plumber and there's the president out in that driveway talking about we got to spread it all around. this is so much bigger. >> so much bigger. it's not just a couple of years ago, a couple of weeks ago, remember the president said the private economy is doing fine. what i'm worried about is government workers so i've got a theory about why this is all happening but we're seeing, i think, what the reason this may have durabilities, a lot of people are being loo -- looking at this and saying this is truly what i believe. >> what's your theory? >> my theory is he's exhausted.

he's had 183 funneled -- fundraisers since last april. they've already had them on the campaign trail starting last fall and he's the president and so all the defenses that he might have to say well, before i say that comment, let me process that for a moment. >> off the prompter. >> off the prompter. he wrote them. so was the remark in the rose garden saying the private sector is doing fine. >> let's talk about something that happened with senator dianne feinstein when she first came out and was critical of the national security leeksz coming out of the administration somewhere. >> white house leaky. >> and then she back tracked because what happened was that mitt romney's campaign co-opted some of her words. and he used it -- mitt romney used some of her words in a speech at the v.f.w. she didn't like that. >> she also got cory bookered. she went out on sunday morning and said that on the talk show and said all these leaks about really critical national

intelligence programs are coming from the white house and i suspect that afternoon she got a phone call from somebody in the white house saying what in the heck are you doing? so it only made it worse when the theme was picked up by mitt romney in his speech to the v.f.w. but look, the white house has a reputation for being fast with the phone call to complain about people who seem to being get out of line. we saw it with cory booker and we've seen it with ed rendell. we're seeing it with her. >> when the president use that speech addressed to the v.f.w. and you bring up senator feinstein and said the leaks are out of the white house. do you think mitt romney was too political in front of the v.f.w. and missed the opportunity to outline his foreign policy more, some are saying that. >> the speech is a pretty good speech. he did more than one thing in the speech. one of the thing that grabbed the media attention is his criticism of the white house. frankly, look, when "the new york times" says 30 current and former administration officials provided this information, you got a problem and a lot of it points direct willing to the national security council. >> before you gshgs state of the

race right now is -- we know the new gallup polls has romney up by one. >> the race has been since mid may tied and there's some things happening underneath the surface and your segment with carl anderson who is a really good guy despite the fact he misspells his name, you know. >> c. >> yeah, both candidates have a difficulty because particularly president obama, his -- these negative ads that he's been running are counter to what people thought he was supposed to be so private, so likable and positive, i'm not going to be the president of red states, blue states but the united states so we've seen a significant decline in his favorability since -- since he began these ads in may. cbs/"new york times" found a pretty precipitous drop in his favor. >> it's now 20 minutes before the top of the hour. dogs and cats allowed to vote? there is rising concerns about possible voter fraud in the swing state of virginia and mitt romney calling for the state to investigate.

this in the headlines right now. the nonprofit group there mailing out voter registrations to, get this, dead people, kids, noncitizens and even dogs and cats. yes, it's true. the state board of elections admitting hundreds if not thousands of forms were sent out and the voter participation center that tries to register women and minorities is blaming the error on a faulty mailing list. >> i cannot believe this story. police this morning trying to hunt down the person behind the terrifying kidnapping of cal ripken jr.'s mom. she's 74 and her name is violet known as vy. she was abducted by an armed man near their home in baltimore and forced into the back of a car. baseball hall of famer's mom found unharmed the following day but captured in handcuffs and tied up for 24 hours. >> strange. brand new video of a beer truck overturning and losing its load on the tragedy. >> brian is driving there right now to collect the remaineders. the tractor-trailer hitting some kind of debris before rolling

over. cartons of beer blocking two lanes of traffic. >> i believe it was somebody from the pabst brewery. >> crews out there to clean it up going slowly because they keep drinking nochlt injuries reported. >> a c plus in chemistry leading to a lawsuit. a 17-year-old boy and his mom suing the albany unified school district in california to get his grade changed to an a plus. the lawsuit also named and a teacher claimed she intentionally tried to ruin his future, the kids, after dispute over a missed lab. you're kidding me. that's brian's head. reports say the teacher was put on leave before her retirement and the district attorney was unavailable for a comment. >> ali, he got three, too. we only had one story. can you talk about that in the break? >> no, i'll read this. >> going to be quiet. no secret here, we're trillions of dollars in debt. now there's word that we're on the verge of another stimulus. will the third time be the charm? stuart varney, i'm guessing is going to say not so fast.

flag of south korea on the jumbotron during a north korea soccer match. the annoyed players refused to take the field for nearly an hour and there were plenty of apologies. all right. ali, over to you and stu. >> as you know, our country is trillions of dollars in debt and unemployment remains stubbornly high but the federal reserve chairman ben bernanke is considering a third round of stimulus to boost the economy. could that work? stu varney is here to answer that question. how much money are we talking about for a third stimulus? have they spelled that out? >> no they have not. it would be hundreds of billions of dollars presumably and the short answer to your question is no, it would not work. at least not for the overall economy. what could ben do to stimulate the economy that he's not done already? the word is that he's likely to keep interest rates way, way down and pump out a ton more of very cheap money. we've had that for three years and it hasn't gotten the economy

going. so what makes everybody think that if he does it again, it will work better than it has done over the last three years. so the answer to your question is probably it will not work to get the economy going, certainly not in the short run. >> as you may recall, there were always stories that back when president obama first took office, some of the advisors wanted more stimulus than what they ended up passing. is this -- is this the follow-up to that? >> but yeah -- well, that's a different kind of stimulus. that's a stimulus from the government, not from the federal reserve. the federal reserve has been printing up money, printing it like it's -- up like a storm. $7 trillion, we believe, over the last three years. that's the federal reserve's stimulus. that really hasn't worked. the other side of the coin is the stimulus you're talking about from president obama, the trillion dollars of the extra government spending. that really hasn't worked. so what would work? i'm not sure i'm in a position to answer that question but what

we've had so far has not worked. >> certainly, the public appetite for stimulus has waned and nobody makes it work. >> look, if ben does get out there and stimulate from the federal reserve, there will be two winners out of this. number one, the stock market. because a lot of this money that's pumped out will find its way into stocks and therefore, your 401k, that's a likely outcome. second, mortgages. mortgage rates right now are at an all time low. they're likely to stay at those all time lows if ben keeps on keeping interest rates way down. >> remember to watch stu varney & company at 9:20 on fox business. thanks so much for explaining all that. it was helpful. >> thank you very much. >> she was missing and now she's found the matriarch of the jackson family is talking. was she really kidnapped and actually missing? hear from michael's mom katherine at the top of the hour. what's the manly way of using the pantyhose? well, steve is going to explain

that. watch brian and steve learn how to lure fish with this pair of nylons. >> what? not in this economy. we also have zero free time, and my dad moving in. so we went to fidelity. we looked at our family's goals and some ways to help us get there. they helped me fix my economy, the one in my house. now they're managing my investments for me. and with fidelity, getting back on track was easier than i thought. call or come in today to take control of your personal economy. get one-on-one help from america's retirement leader. according to ford, the works fuel saver package could literally pay for itself. jim twitchel is this true? yes it's true.

>> there's a shark on this line and i am a fisherman with the florida fly ride. he is completely pulling me around. like an oxon. only thing separating me from the shark is 4 inches of fiberglass, my despicable beer.

-- beard. >> and the beard was the turnoff in the end. he's an extraordinary fisherman and his show is on the discovery channel. animal planet's new show "off the hook, extreme catches" features you and that's an example. >> that's a small example. that's from the first episode catching sharks from a paddle board and as you can see, we've got the "fox & friends" lake out here. >> really disapointed with what we put together. >> i think our chances of catching something are probably slim. >> probably. those aren't actual paddleboards. these are boogie boards. >> i think they're for children. >> good to set up things. you're also in addition to an avid fisherman, you're a wrestler. >> pro wrestler. >> if need be, if you had to get in there and wrestle a shark or something, would you? >> a small one, yeah, no problem. >> yeah. >> what is it about fishing that you thought i got to take this to the extreme? why wasn't fishing enough for you? >> i did -- i mean, i fished a lot when i was a kid. really basic stuff when my dad

turned me on to it. this is fringe stuff, like extreme catches. ways to catch fish, sharks from a paddle board. scuba free diving. >> right. plus this little tip that you're going to give us right now. you know, brian was talking earlier in the green room about what do i do with my used pantyhose? >> problem we all have. >> and you've got a solution. >> yeah, it's actually from the first episode and we have ladies pantyhose. i like to use the leg firming ones, the sharks seem to like it best. >> what's inside? that's not sausage. >> no, it's fish sausage. it's a bait fish. you chop it up. >> chum. >> put it inside of there and sharks love these things. sharks love lady pantyhose. >> you'll tie a knot on top here and you'll hook the j hook through here and the shark comes, bam. the bigger the bait, the bigger the shark. and you can make these as big as you want them to. so it works. >> where did you get this tip? joe namath? >> yeah, pro fisher from way

back, joe is. but actually it's been around for years they said and i don't know who the first guy was that was stealing his wife's pantyhose but she probably wasn't too excited about it. it does work. i've seen it work and i've got a 7 foot nurse shark using ladies pantyhose. >> are you going to travel across the country? there's some great fishing with some tall tales of the one that got away around the country? >> the fishermen i go with are pros are all over the place, the biggest ones are the ones that get away. you can make those as big as you want. >> you do. >> do you eat what you catch? >> yeah, we do -- catch and release 99 -- 90% of the time. everything we catch goes to good use. i love to eat. >> your nickname is showtime. where did that come from? >> that's before wrestling. fans early on in my career kind of gave me that moniker and it stuck.

>> hopefully in the future i can fight you. i'd like to take you on. >> if you're looking for a new nickname now that you're in the fishing business, how about happy hooker? >> that's been used. >> a trademark on all that. >> she does seem happy. you can catch her show, i stumbled into it. i'll accept it. at 9:00 p.m. eastern exclusively on the animal planet and airs mondays on the discovery channel. >> so good, you air twice. >> it's a great tv show and tune in. check it out. >> and your despicable beard. >> i have some of that on my hand. >> he tells me that after. >> we need some moist towelettes. >> back to you, ali. >> thanks, guys. i wondered where my pantyhose went. michael bloomberg playing politics with tragedy, calling for the police to strike over gun control. did he forget that's illegal? your e-mails are pouring in on

his first meeting with former prime minister tony blair. >> look at those chairs, they enveloped them. >> he's meeting with foreign secretary william haig before meeting with david cameron in two hours. tomorrow, mr. romney will head to the olympic games and later in the week, he'll meet with leaders in israel and in poe land. now to a fox news exclusive for you about this disturbing discovery in the movie theater massacre. law enforcement sources say that james holmes, the alleged gunman mailed a notebook to a psychiatrist that was full of details about how he was going to kill people. >> what we don't know is how specific it was to -- what actually happened but there are definitely gun holding stick figures shooting at other stick figures. >> well, sources tell fox news that this is the notebook being removed. investigators will look through it more now. the army psychiatrist charged with murdering 13 people at fort hood being told to shave his beard or someone will shave it for him.

major nidal hasan said it's an expression of his muslim faith and he does not care it violates army regulation, a judge says he must get rid of it before his court-martial begins next month and he's held hasan in contempt of court and fined him $1,000 for not shaving already. the jackson family feud takes a new turn. >> you got to be kidding me. >> i kid you not. a judge removed the family matriarch katherine jackson as the guardian of michael's three kids. tito's son t.j. who i believe you see on the left there has temporary custody of paris, prince and blanket. >> good teeth. >> he's good looking. katherine breaking her silence says the ruling is based on lies. >> i'm devastated that while i've been away that my grandchildren have been taken away from me. there are rumors going around about me that i've been kidnapped and held against my will. i'm here today to let everybody know that i'm fine and i'm here with my children and my children would never do a thing like that. >> well, apparently, the

82-year-old was staying in arizona but is now expected to return to los angeles. if she returns and re-establishes regular communications with the children, she could get custody back. it just gets curiouser and curiouser. >> it is absolutely -- it is just crazy what is going on there because she did make a strange call earlier in the week, slurring her words. >> from arizona. >> and her lawyer thinks she was kidnapped and taken against her will and the kids were tweeting out that grandmother disappears. what grandmother disappears that has no history about disappearing. >> keep in mind, it's about the millions and millions of dollars that michael jackson even in death is generating and there's portions of the family that want a piece of the pie. >> so a cynic would say. >> i'm just reporting the facts. i report, you decide! >> oh, me? >> actually, we report, they decide. >> that's better. >> all right, meanwhile, let's talk about something that mayor michael bloomberg has done that has aroused a lot of debate and that is that right after the colorado tragedy, he came out

and said it was time for both candidates, president obama and mitt romney to do something about gun control. now, michael bloomberg there who you see is a long time gun control advocate. he started a committee with a group of mayors to crack down on illegal gun purchases. this isn't just something that he's come up with. this is something -- this is a cause that he's been hammering for many years. so he took the opportunity after the tragedy to once again talk about it. >> i would circle the word "opportunity". he sees it as an opportunity. that's how many people see it. he did something that was absolutely extraordinary and off the charts. he called on cops to act and break the law. listen. >> i don't understand why the police officers across this country don't stand up collectively and say we're going to go on strike. we're not going to protect you unless you, the public, through your legislature do what's required to keep us safe. after all, police officers want to go home to their families.

and we're doing everything we can to make their job more difficult but more importantly, more dangerous by leaving guns in the hands of people who shouldn't have them. >> some have suggested why is mayor bloomberg talking about police getting shot when there was no police officer involved? getting shot out in aurora. the thing that is unusual about that, number one, it's political and he injected -- he politicized this event, this tragedy out in aurora immediately hours after it happened. but the thing is party leaders on both sides are pretty clear. there will be no new gun control laws because both sides have said there are plenty of laws on the books right now, we simply need to enforce the ones we have. >> so chris christie, the governor of new jersey had a lot to say about michael bloomberg speaking out about this tragedy. let's listen. >> let it go on strike in new york, we'll see how that works.

i mean, you know, mayor bloomberg is obviously passionate about this issue and he's not restricting himself to staying out of politics during tragedies. this is a guy who is very outspoken, by the way, on not allowing politics to enter the tragedy of 9/11. i wish he would show the same restraint concerning this tragedy. >> by the way, let's think about it. if cops decide they felt they have a great reason to go on strike, maybe they don't like the overtimes being cut back. maybe they don't like the fact that their bulletproof vests aren't top of the line so those will be reasons, you realize where the slippery slope this will be. how unsustainable it ends up. >> there's a law. it's the taylor law here in new york. police cannot strike. so what the mayor was encouraging them to do is something that they are forbidden by law from doing. >> he then came out and said, i didn't mean literally that they go on strike. he walked back his comments.

literally go on strike. there's a law against that. but he did say that they should go on strike but apparently he was using that figuratively somehow. >> sure. just the fact that he would inject so shortly after this national tragedy, he would inject politics into this, that's what many people find unseamly. >> tell us what you think about this. tom said he should be relieved of his duty. he called for nationwide anarchy. >> this is a tweet from kenny, i'm stunned that law enforcement break their oath to protect and serve. hard to see how people would be more safe if the police laid down their weapons. >> no kidding. adam is tweeting this morning and says if the police aren't on the streets, then ordinary citizens really need their own firearms. all right. keep the e-mails coming. let's talk a little bit about this. you know there's a terrible drought out in the midwest and all the places where a lot of

our food is being grown. >> farmers are suffering. >> oh, my goodness. they certainly are. and food prices, they're estimating will go up 5% at least because of that. so at this time of great and -- there you can see the price of food, look at that, beef is going to go up, dairy, eggs, stuff like that. at this time of national agriculture crisis, what is the usda, the united states department of agriculture doing? well, you know what? they had in their employee newsletter a little item calling for employees there to make sure that they don't eat meat on monday because they say that, you know, it's better for the environment, cows take a lot of energy to grow so just don't eat meat. which is extraordinary given the fact that agriculture, promotion of agriculture is what they're supposed to do and here they're trying to run beef producers out of business. >> that's exactly what the kansas senator thought. why is the usda in the business

of talking about green house gases produced by meat and climate change, isn't that more the purview of the e.p.a.? here is the senator. >> our own department of agriculture and again, at least from my perspective and we ought to look at the mission of what the department of agriculture is. i think it will reflect what i'm saying is to promote agriculture. to help those who every day go to work to produce food, fiber and fuel for this country and the world. yet, our own department of agriculture is encouraging people not to eat meat. >> also noted, too, on monday, we were telling you how cows are fed wine to be more moist. we're telling you how to make your male more tender and next we find out there will be no monday meat. >> after jerry moran made that speech on the floor of the u.s. congress, he sent a letter to

the department of agriculture, secretary tim vilsack and said what are you people doing over there? as it turns out, they have taken down that particular polk about don't eat meat on monday. and according to a spokesperson there, it was not authorized to be in it. it was not until the national cattlemen's beef association denounced it that something actually got done. >> right. i'm just amazed the way steve has surrounded the farming story and it shows his farming background. >> it does. >> it's a rich background. >> former president of the future farmers of america. >> ran unopposed. >> uh-huh. >> you ran unopposed and you were never president before when you talked about it. you said member. now you're president? >> i was president of the clay center chapter and i was a state officer. >> wow! >> i hate to -- >> were you impeached? what happened? that scandal, that memo pad scandal that you don't want to talk about? >> i think the real story is why didn't i become a farm sner>> let's hear more about that.

>> got rid of your overalls and never looked back. >> we'll hear more about that, i hope. wait until you hear and see this story. this video is horrifying. a killer whale dragging a tra trainer under the water. according to our next guest, this happens more often than you know and there's one simple reason why. >> because it's a killer whale? and mitt romney is heading to israel this week. but president obama hasn't been there since the election. how will this play out with voters? we'll debate it and you'll listen and take notes.

>> just one day before kicking off the seven day trip overseas, mitt romney sharply criticizing the president over strained relations with israel.

>> president obama is fond of lecturing israel's leaders. he was even caught by a microphone deriding them. he's undermined their position which was tough enough as it was and even at the united nations to the enthusiastic applause of israel's enemies, he spoke as if our closest ally in the middle east was the problem. the people of israel deserve better than what they receive from the leader of the free world. >> well, romney who has since touched down in london plans to meet with israeli leaders later this week. could his visit to the country deal a significant blow to the president's re-election efforts in this country? let's meet juan williams and andrea tantaros both hosts of "the five" but right here on fox newschannel, more importantly, welcome to both of you. first with you, andrea, he could go -- do you believe that mitt romney could go overseas to help himself here at home? >> i do because he's highilight highlighting the fact that the

president hasn't been to israel. he's able to shore up two things that are very important. one, critical fundraising dollars that the jewish community is known for and two, florida. florida is very important to mitt romney. he needs to win either florida or ohio or both. and so his calculus is go over there, highlight his plan. and maybe repair some of the damage that obama has done and outline what he would do and show that he can have a nonhostile relationship with benjamin netanyahu unlike the president. i think this is smart. is it a significant blow that he could deal? probably not. but florida is very significant. and i think that's what the president -- mitt romney, sorry, slip, has on his mind. >> do you see a vulnerability there? >> no, look, the polls are so strong on this, brian, it's like 64%, 67% of jewish voters are going to vote for president obama. last time around, john mccain got 21%. romney's hope here is that he might get it up to, let's say 2shgs -- 25%.

if he got it up to 25%, that would be the highest that he'd get. >> he's just under 30%. like you said, president obama has the majority. as most democrats have done since harry truman, he helped give birth to the nation. but juan, in particular, you know percentage points in florida could make the difference. you don't see that there's a vulnerability there? really? >> no, no, there's a vulnerability. in fact, you know, sheldon attleson is putting $100 million. he says he wants to spend $100 million and he has ads out and wants to focus on the jewish community and the notion of buyer's remorse. it's not going to be a strong turning point here. maybe if you want to make sure that the jewish community understands the relationship between this administration and israel, understands that all obama has done is restate a two state solution and try to move things forward, nothing has happened there. there's been no retrenchment on the part of the united states in

terms of its commitment to israel. so this is all about netanyahu and obama not getting along. >> juan makes a point about the fact that typically democrats have captured more of the jewish vote but something very important has happened since the 2008 election and that's new york won. remember, anthony wiener's district. that was a primarily democratic overwhelmingly democratic district that was won by a republican and my line this time around is hey, if we can make it there, we can make it anywhere. >> you need a sex scandal. >> weiner did something else to play a role in that. >> but israel did play a huge role and economic policies as well. >> and the big picture, though, the one thing that people could keep in mind is the best president, israel's best friend maybe ever was george w. bush in terms of loyalty and that is the party that mitt romney is running under. >> brian, one last quick point here. i mean, when you ask americans about who is the better commander in chief, even yesterday in "the wall street

journal", people think it's obama. >> not on the economy, though, the number one issue. >> we're talking about this trip overseas, andrea, if you're going overseas and trying to say i can be a world leader, it reminds people, i think, of a lot of the failures of the bush administration. >> i'm sorry it has to come to this. i'll have to push you guys aside. and go to the next segment. wish i didn't have these magic powers but i do. it's a burden. >> thank you, brian. >> always great to see you and promise never to get along. straight ahead, the video is absolutely horrifying. a killer whale dragging a trainer under the water. our next guest says she -- he's shocked this doesn't happen morning and he should know. he worked with killer whales for years. and unions taking a page from the occupy slackers. they're putting a bounty on mitt romney.

ali? >> well, steve, this video is chilling. a killer whale grabbing a trainer by the foot and dragging him underwater for nearly 15 minutes at sea world in san diego. incredibly the trainer escaped with just a broken foot. this video was released as part of a lawsuit against sea world over the death of another trainer, dawn brancheau. now, there's a brand new book exposing exactly why this happens. joining us now is the author of that book "death at sea world" david purvy and carol ray, a former sea world orca trainer. thanks to both of you for being here. >> thank you. >> carol, i want to start with you. you trained killer whales like this. when you look at that video that we just watched and maybe we can watch it together, how do you explain what's happening in this video? >> oh, from what i understand there was some turmoil regarding a situation with the calf in the back pools. so there are events that are

happening in -- behind the scenes of that video that you can't see. >> the mother killer whale that wants to get back to her calf. >> right. right. exactly. and even ken peters in his testimony when they investigated the incident talked about the calf making distress calls in the back pool. and so i think while you watch the video and you don't necessarily see precurseors to what -- to the event that happens, what's happening behind the scenes is probably taking more of her attention and she's just giving a message to ken that she wants to get out of there and get back with her baby. >> baby, you have spent years researching what's gone on at sea world. you say that 15% of all the orcas ever held in sea world's collection have been involved in serious acts of aggression against their trainers. why is that happening? >> well, the scientists i

talked to told me that stress, that captivity is so stressful for these animals, you have to realize that they stay together in their family groups for life. they swim up to 100 miles a day and they are extremely intelligent. they are very aware of what's going on to them and with their surroundings and you take them out of the ocean and put them into these very small confinements, create these artificial pods of killer whales from all over the world who would never socialize with each other and stress is produced. they often sometimes fight with each other and even injure each other and we now know that killer whales have killed four people in captivity whereas no one has been seriously attacked by a killer whale in all of recorded history in the ocean. >> carol, you worked with killer whales as a trainer for more than three years. did you ever feel in danger? >> i had situations where animals broke from control and that happens very, very frequently. i never felt like i was in

danger when i was working in the water with the whales and i feel very lucky that was the case. i think there is no doubt that if i were still there, any of these incidents that we're hearing about now could have happened to me or somebody that i know. it's -- >> when you say they broke from control, what did that look like and feel like? >> it really depended on the situation. but most often, they would simply leave you and go do whatever it was that was more important to them at that time. and in those instances, you can see them looking at you tube videos, you can see many of them. it happens quite frequently where they just decide they've got other things going on that are more important that them. they leave and they might be swimming and chasing each other. just completely not interested in working with you. >> david -- >> they make that choice. >> sorry, carol. from your investigation into all this, does it seem like there's anything that's going to change

at places like sea world as a result of these attacks? >> well, government has stepped in and osha issued a fine and violation against sea world. sea world has removed its trainers from the water. they now stand on the edge of the stage. sea world would like to get the trainers back in the water. frankly, the show is much more exciting when there is that interaction but the federal government believes it's simply unsafe because even if a whale goes off behavior less than 1% of the time, it's those times where the danger is most present. these are large predators and like carol said, when they decide they're going to do what they're going to do, they do it. they have their own opinions about things and it's very hard to bring them back under control sometimes. >> sure, of course. >> fortunately, ken peters as we see did a remarkable job bringing this whale back down. >> and survived. the book is called "death at sea world". carol ray, you were the former trainer at sea world. thanks so much for coming in with your expertise. >> thank you very much for having me. >> well, it's a tribute to

those who fought for our country. why is the aclu trying to tear down this memorial? and why is the government leaving vets in the dark about it? and men and women just friends? well, some say it can never happen. no way, no how! we'll tell you why next. ♪

>> strange facts coming out about both presidential candidates. a new study suggests that president obama's e-mails are more personal than mitt romney's e-mails. yeah, romney's usually end with best regards, mitt. while the president's usually ends with i killed usama bin laden. >> yeah, trying to make some hay with that. let's tell you a little bit -- remember when the occupy movement was really raging and how they would forget about the public square, they would try to take the protests directly to people's private lives where they would show up at bankers' houses and in one instance out in the suburb they were trying to protest with the banker.

the banker wasn't there. the banker's kid was there and got completely freaked out. apparently, some unions are taking a page out of the occupy wall street playbook and trying to apply it to presidential politics abroad. >> the unions, united steelworkers and unite, they are offering what they say is a reward for anyone who can tell them where mitt romney's private fundraisers will be held in london. they're offering a dinner for two in london at an american style restaurant for anybody who can provide the addresses that they want to go and obviously break up or protest in front of. >> at a friday's or applebee's. here's a quote from the usw in their press release says united steelworkers are offering a reward for the whereabouts of u.s. presidential candidate mitt romney attending a highly secretive $25,000 to $$75,000 a

head fundraising event in london. that's today. we'll see. it's amazing what they're doing with the union members' money. >> yeah. apparently what they want to do is award mitt romney two gold medals. one for austerity. apparently, they don't think spending too much money that you don't have is a good idea and the other is for financial secrecy. sounds like they're coordinating with the d.n.c., doesn't it? >> hard to -- >> or the barack obama campaign. >> i mean, president obama has also had lavish fundraisers for tens of thousands of dollars per head. >> they're trying to throw some mud while mitt is abroad and is making some hay at the olympics. >> meanwhile, we have to get to this because fox news has learned exclusively that james holmes, the suspect in the movie theater massacre in colorado mailed a notebook to a psychiatrist apparently describing how he wanted to kill people. alicia acuna is live in aurora, colorado, with more. hi, alicia. >> hi, alisyn.

yes, foxnews.com is reporting that james holmes sent this notebook that included drawings and illustrations of stick figures holding guns, blowing away other stick figures and sent this to a psychiatrist at the university of colorado medical center. that's according to law one source said that this notebook actually never made it to the psychiatrist, that it sat in the mailroom since july 12th, something the university denied in a press release. holmes' defense team was at their client's apartment building yesterday. this as residents were allowed to return home after being evacuated by police on friday because cops say the apartment was rigged to explode. >> the biggest thing is the reason we picked the apartment was because it's -- the only individuals living here are affiliated with the hospital or the school so we figured that when we picked this apartment complex, that we'd be around some pretty decent individuals.

>> the makeshift memorial across the street from the theater continues to grow. items brought in rememberance of the victims and to thank first responders and yesterday, aurora police officer stopped by. >> we mentally prepare and we train but that doesn't make it any easier. and the fact of the matter is, we're all human. and we're all affected by this greatly. and, you know, even obviously the guys that were here that night but there's ripple effects. >> the first victim's service was yesterday. 51-year-old gordon was memorialized by family and friends including his four children. he is remembered as a devoted father, he was the oldest victim in this shooting and those who were injured who are still in the hospital are receiving some good news. some of the hospitals have announced that they plan to either wipe out or severely limit the growing medical bills for these victims.

back to you guys. >> alicia, thank you. that is kind of the hospitals. >> they also said, too, about this guy that the delivery guy who was showing up almost every day for three months, he was always by himself and never seemed to have a friend in the world and made some very odd jokes. >> yeah. >> meanwhile, let's get to the rest of your headlines and tell you what's happening in the news. can there be a mystery illness plaguing the happiest place on earth? several dozen people who went on disney's wild africa trek in the last two months have been linked to a nasty stomach bug. fortunately, nobody had to be hospitalized and an inspection found no problems or health violations but the park is now asking people to take extra precautions and make sure they sanitize their hands regularly. >> and don't pet the rhino. >> please. >> plus she claimed it was a seizure and not a sleeping pill. that caused her to slam her lexus into a truck during her wild ride down a new york highway. but toxicology tests taken at the time of the crash now show traces of ambien in carrie

kennedy's bloodstream. kennedy pleaded not guilty earlier this month to a charge of driving while impaired. she's due back in court next month. now we know, sleeping pills. >> a federal judge will hear new arguments in the battle that's been brewing nor nearly 30 years. we're talking about the mount soledad memorial in san diego, it's anchored by a huge cross and sitting on federal land. the problem is it violates the separation of church and state and we're learning that the justice department has been negotiating with the aclu about the cross and haven't included the group that founded the memorial. today's hearing is meant to address the group's concern and possibly allow the group to be part of the discussions going forward. >> listen up, everyone. can't men and women just be friends? a survey says no. 88 pairs of friends were asked to rate their sexual attraction to each other. men were more likely to be attracted to their female friends. uh-huh.

they also assume their female friends were more romantically interested in them than they actually were. hilarious. the survey also finds both single and attached women show the same level of attraction but they only wanted something to come out of their relationship if it was, what in trouble? >> it goes to show you there's a lot employigoing on in our he. >> that really doesn't exist. >> your thought bubbles are always interesting. bacon and then something else. >> and beer! >> yeah. and rain. they sure could use it across the plain states. look at this. the drought scorching crops across the country, now the costliest since 1988. experts revealing the drought affecting over 60% of the united states will cost at least $12 billion. food prices could go up 3% to 4% to 5% next year. the 1988 drought cost $40 billion. real quickly let's find out where it's raining and there's some good news. there's some rain as you can see

from west texas up through the central plains and the great lake states as well. the heaviest stuff will be moving through the northeast. perhaps tornadoes tonight. so stand by. and the current temperatures as you head out the door right there, a lot of 70's and 80's across the east. some 50's, 60's and 70's out west and that's your travelcast. >> coming up, this comment has sparked outrage in the small business community. >> you've got a business? you didn't build that. somebody else made that happen. >> well, next on the rundown, a small business owner who voted for president obama in 2008. wait until you hear what she has to say now. >> yeah. >> and -- >> remember this? spending your tax dollars to study a shrimp on a treadmill? there's the new report out now that senator tom coburn here next. >> and finally -- >> first, the question of the day.

>> it's a government program that's costing you billions and billions of dollars each year and washington is aware of the waste. last year's ground breaking g.a.o. report exposed the wasteful spending within the federal job training programs nationwide. maybe well intended but not panning out. >> now the oklahoma senator tom coburn is releasing new follow-up findings and joins us from capitol hill this morning. hi, senator. >> good morning. how are you guys? >> nice to see you. let's talk about what you've learned about this federal jobs

training program. it sounds great. obviously, we want to train workers. yet, you found incredible redundancy and waste. explain it to us. >> the original g.a.o. report showed that we had 47 separate different federal job training programs. nine different agencies, we're spending almost $19 billion a year on it. none of them with metrics and all of them overlap except three. >> so you -- >> and congress hadn't done one thing about that as a group, they have tried to pass them out of the house committee so i thought i would look at how it works in oklahoma and what we see is what oklahoma does well is what they control which is none of these federal job training programs and what they don't control, they're a disaster. >> so why do politicians like them so much if the bottom line doesn't equal out and doesn't show a payoff?

>> they won't work on solving the problems number one. we have a city in oklahoma with 16,000 problems in it and they have 17 different job training offices. think about that. employing somewhere around 40 people in the offices alone for -- and oklahoma has an up employment rate of 4.7%. >> i mean, as you found, they don't -- they don't speak to each other. they're working in complete redundancy. they aren't able to figure out which one -- what one office is doing and what the other 46 are doing. you don't think that the federal government should be in the business of job training. why not? >> well, let me answer the first question. a lot of the people that are working in these offices are as frustrated as i am. because they know they can't get the job done that they're supposed to get done. because of the rules. look, the constitution doesn't get us any role for it. we've now proven by wasting at least $10 to $12 billion of the $18 billion a year we don't know

what we're doing. we could cut it in half and refine all the programs and send them to the state and say you spend the money. you obviously know what to do. what we did discover in oklahoma was that the state-run programs are actually really working. we're actually training people for jobs and jobs that they can have for a long time rather than paying -- spending $76,000 to get -- teach somebody how to do a minimum wage job. >> finally real quick, i'm up against a stop sign but what are you doing about it? >> well, what i'm going to try to do is take what virginia fox did in the house when he consolidated 43 of these programs into one. give more flexibility and let the states do it. i won't win the battle saying it's not a role but there's $9 billion a year we can save and actually improve job training that's, you know, that's $100 billion over 10 years. that's how you get rid of trillion dollar deficits. >> there you go. senator tom coburn, thanks so much for coming in. >> you bet. good to see you guys. >> she was a staunch supporter

of president obama until he said small businesses didn't make it on their own. now she's for mitt romney. a small business owner who is fed up with hope and change next. >> but first on this day in history in 1971 "you've got a friend" by james taylor was the number one song.

>> the answer to the question of the day, dorothy hamill who brian thinks is really cute. the winner is douglas burrows. >> president obama doubling down on you didn't build this comments. he reaffirmed how he feels about

small business. >> the approach that he's talking about is not going to help small businesses. and it's not going to create more markets for large businesses. he is wrong! we did not build this country on our own. we built it together and if mr. romney doesn't understand that, then he doesn't understand what it takes to grow this economy in the 21st century. for everybody! >> and even those comments are not sitting well with small business owners. joining us right now is debbie smith, she owns a promotional products company and was a long time democrat until recently. debbie, thanks for joining us today from iowa. >> sure. good morning. thank you for having me. >> you bet. so you voted for barack obama. you've been a long time democrat, and you were optimistic that with all that hope and change talk four years ago, things would be brighter today but you now are supporting mitt romney. why? >> i am. i am. well, all i have to do is look out the front window of my office and see a lot of empty

office space. it's been that way for a long time. our business once had 13 employees and we're down to seven. we're wearing all kinds of hats that we didn't before such as my husband doing all the cleaning now. as far as our customers go, i can tell there's so much uncertainty and if they place an order, it's not as big and so that as well as the debt, really concerns me. >> all very challenging. surely. when you heard the president in roanoke a week and a half ago go you didn't build that, what was your first impulse? what >> well, i first had to go back and make sure that i really heard him correctly. and when i did, the first thing i thought was my husband because he worked so hard for so long and worked two jobs, he would come in and work in learning the business all day long and go out and pound the pavement. and then he would go to his second job at 4:00 p.m. and come home at 1:00 a.m. and then get up and do it all again the next

day. and no one did -- no one put in the hours or, you know, put up the risk that we put up or the personal sacrifice that it takes to run a business and we, as far as personal sacrifice, we used to have a lake home up in northern iowa. kind of by where you used to live, i think. >> algona. >> and a boat. we sold that when things got bad. we sold it so we could sustain the business and no one did that but us. no one bailed us out. so -- and i guess in thinking about all of that, it really came down to we've been doing this for 25 years about. and we've had so many people tell us so many things about, oh, you guys have done such a great job, you know, you were in the basement of your home and now you're in a warehouse, office with a warehouse. but no one in 25 years has ever said those words to me. >> that's right. and that was a wake-up call to you. debbie smith, we thank you very much and we hope your business makes a big turn around and thank you very much for talking

about politics from iowa. >> thanks for having me. >> meanwhile, straight ahead, the housing crisis started when people got mortgages they cannot afford. bob massi says the same exact thing is happening again! stay with us.

>> ali: good morning, everyone. it's thursday, july 26. i'm alisyn camerota in for gretchen today. mitt romney taking his campaign across the pond, traveling to london ahead of this year's olympic games. there is one thing he won't be doing during his visits. we'll tell what you that is coming up. >> steve: new york city mayor bloomberg playing politics with the colorado movie massacre, telling police to go on strike if they don't wind up with more gun control laws. one problem. going on strike is illegal. so what is the mayor doing? >> brian: he's turning farming into a main stream sensation. >> i fed you. ♪ how crazy

♪ he feed the baby ♪ baby ♪ i'm farm boy ♪ and here is my tractor ♪ i found this ♪ . >> brian: i got to see the harvard baseball team do it and the smu girls team. i think it was the lacrosse team. now this nine-year-old is getting famous because he's so talented and so cute. "fox & friends" starts right now >> steve: that young farmer and his brother, who held the camera, they're in our green room right now. when they set off for the trip to "fox & friends," the whole town came out. all the fire trucks in town went down to main street to see them off in a limo as they made their way to new york city because this video that his brother shot with the little flip cam is putting that town on the map. those boys as well.

>> ali: that's so great. it's a catchy tune. everybody likes to sing along to that. >> brian: i'm very curious to see if they actually took it from the harvard baseball team. do you know what i'm talk being? >> ali: yeah. of course. >> brian: then the girls team flipped and did it with their legs. >> steve: they did. it was funny. let's talk about this, mitt romney right now is in london. there he is arriving hours ago. you know what he's doing is while he's on foreign soil, even though brian williams n this clip you're about to hear at nbc trying to engage him to criticize the president of the united states, mitt romney would not take the bait on that when talking about israel. listen to this. >> we're on foreign soil right now and i don't want to be in any way critical of the president or to be fashioning foreign policy departure from the president while i'm on foreign soil. so i made those comments there,

so i'm not going to make them here. but i can tell you that with regards to any nation that feels its security is at risk, that they should have a firm conviction that america is securely behind them and i hope that people of israel feel that. i would certainly want to communicate that i as a citizen and candidate stand with israel and want to see them have a prosperous and peaceful future. >> brian: the latest diss from the administration, i think governor romney is doing the right thing. when the president is overseas or running for president overseas. it's important that the disss continue. there was a terror conference where all experts got together, israel wasn't even invited. who knows terrorism better than israel and they got stiff armed? >> ali: karl rove was here earlier and talked about how this is a great opportunity for mitt romney, allows him to be on an international stage, appear presidential. you'll remember barak obama when he was a candidate did this in

2008. people gave that rave reviews. so he talked about the advantages of mitt romney going to europe. >> this gives him a chance to sort of highlight his public service and having left his career at bain in order to take a leave of absence to run the olympics. we wake up this morning examine there is a picture of him meeting with prime minister blair. he'll meet with the meeting of h efforts this will give him a chance to articulate his view of foreign affairs and emphasize some things that will have domestic political ramifications >> brian: him and netanyahu, they've been friends since school days. >> steve: 1976, mitt romney's first job out of harvard was he was working on the 16th floor of the boston consulting group and right down the hall, benjamin netanyahu worked there as well. they were both hired as business consultants. they've been long-time friends ever since. they'll get together in two days. >> brian: i had a similar first

job, sports phone. >> steve: who worked down the hall? >> brian: nobody important. >> ali: a lot of parallel, thank you. >> brian: it's eerie. >> ali: thank you for that. let's get to your headlines. this disturbing new detail emerging that james holmes may have tried warning is someone about that midnight movie madness. fox news learning that holmes sent a notebook to a psychiatrist that was, quote, full of details about how he was gog kill people. sources say this is the notebook right there that is being removed. we hear it may have sat in a mail room for up to a week. the university of colorado says of it delivered op the same day. a new report says holmes may have originally been planning to travel to new york to target the stars of the "dark knight rises" at their premiere. the army psychiatrist charged with murdering 13 people at fort hood being told to shave his beard or someone will shave it for him. he says it's an expression of

his muslim face and says he doesn't care it vital army regulation. a judge says he must get rid of it before his court-martial and he held a sign in contempt of court examine fined him $1,000 for not shaving already. troubling warning about the effects of recent national security leaks. admiral william mccraven, who planned the raid on osama bin laden's compound says the leaks put lives at risk. he tells the afghan security forum, we need to do the best we can to clamp down because sooner or later, it will cost people their lives or cost us our national security. many critics say the white house intentionally leaked information to enhance president obama's image. the white house denies the allegations. talk about nerves of steel. look at this photo of an inspection crew teetering on the boom crane at one world trade center tower. they are 93 stories off the ground. >> steve: couldn't pay me enough. >> ali: this photo reminding a

lot of people of this snapshot from 1932. enjoy ago lunch break high above rock center. the workers at the freedom tower can relate. they say it's too much of a hassle to go down 1200 feet to get a snack. brian has his eyes covered. >> brian: this is unbelievable. i thought that was a fake picture. that was from 1932? that was actually real? you just sit up there overlook the city? >> ali: relaxing lunch break. >> steve: a lot of people are afraid of heights. i'm actually afraid of widths. >> brian: that's very interesting. anything wide. that's interesting. you stay away from trucks? >> steve: stay away from what? >> brian: trucks. >> steve: wide truck? no. mayor bloomberg of new york, we were talking with mitt romney, how he's not gog criticize the president of the united states while he's abroad because politics should end at the waters' edge. that's a long-standing tradition in politics. another one is when there is a national tragedy, you should not politicize them. but you know what?

michael bloomberg, the mayor of new york city, within hours of the shooting, suddenly turned it into a gun control thing and then told cops they should do this. listen. >> i don't understand why the police officers across this country don't stand up collectively and say we're going to go on strike. we're not going to protect you unless you, the public, through your legislature, do what's required to keep us safe. after all, police officers want to go home to their families and we're doing everything we can to make their job more difficult, but more importantly, more dangerous by leaving guns in the hands of people who shouldn't have them. >> ali: how would that help anything? the police to lay down their arms and go on strike? well, so many people came out and possibly reminded the mayor that that was actually illegal for police to go on strike here in the city. >> brian: and irrational to recommend it. >> ali: many people reminded him

of that as well. so then he walked back his comments saying, i didn't mean literally go on strike. >> steve: maybe he did. he said they should go on strike, which cost would violate the taylor law here in new york. across the river is new jersey and chris christie said this about the mayor of gotham city. >> let them go on strike in new york. we'll see how that works. you know, mayor bloomberg is obviously passionate about this issue and he's not restricting himself to staying out of politics during tragedies. this is a guy who is very outspoken, by the way, on not allowing politics to enter the tragedy of 9-11. i wish he would show the same restraint concerning this tragedy. >> brian: didn't show any restraint after the times square bomb. he said it could be somebody who is mad about obamacare.

really? he didn't want to overreact. he has a double standard now. here is michelle malkin. she was on with sean hannity last night. she's got a real problem with this posture. >> michael bloomberg, an elected government official, essentially endorsed anarchy. he called on officers who are paid and who are employed by the government to protect and to serve to go on strike and then afterward, he had to eat his own words because, of course, his lawyers probably reminded him of something called the tyler ordinance which prohibits government officials from officially endorsing public strikes like this which endanger the public. these people are not, not concerned about public welfare, public safety or self-defense and individual empowerment 'cause if they were, they would be groveling on the ground apologizing. >> steve: what do you think of mayor bloomberg initially politicizing what happened out

in colorado? send us an e-mail or twitter us. >> brian: i'll put that question on right now. you read the tease. >> steve: we're multi tasking. >> brian: you're filling in for gretchen in life and i'll fill in for twitter. >> ali: house in crisis started when people got mortgages, you'll remember they could not afford and real estate expert bob massi says that exact same thing could be happening all over again. he is here next. >> steve: then the nine-year-old who is turning farming into a main stream sensation. cue the kid. ♪ the cow is crazy ♪ so milk him maybe ♪ . >> steve: the boy and his brother live in the green room with the camera they made the movie with. we'll be right back.

>> ali: a few months ago, president obama attacked mortgage lenders for practices that put people in homes they couldn't afford. >> we're nevertheless hurt badly by the irresponsible actions of others, by lenders who sold loans to people who couldn't afford them, by buyers who knew they couldn't afford them, by speculators who were looking to make a quick buck, by banks that took risky mortgages, packaged them up and traded them off for large profits. >> ali: in an effort to push diversity in homeownership, is the obama administration resorting to those old policies? joining us now to explain is fox news legal analyst bob massi. hi, bob. >> good morning. >> ali: what's your evidence that the administration is still

giving or trying to give mortgages to people who really are not eligible or shouldn't be? >> people should be outraged on one hand. the laws are on the book that says there has to be fair lending. that's been around for years. you can not discriminate against minorities. as a result, what's happened -- the timing of this is what should be offensive to minorities. they should be offended by this in that they're now saying there is agencies in the government that oversee this -- that they're putting pressure on banks because of discrimination from lending years ago. literally what they have done is they are lowering the standards for lending to minorities to actually give loans to minorities, who allegedly were discriminated against, who for people who couldn't normally afford the homes, that is not only patronizing, it goes against exactly what he said as

to what lenders did previously. you either believe what you say and you don't patronize minorities. why? for votes. this is all politically motivated. >> ali: let me read to you what the statement from the department of justice says since they defend what they're doing. the department's settlement do not require banks to make loans to borrowers who do not meet their underwriting criteria. the department's actions only seek to insure qualified borrower receives equal treatment free from discrimination. i mean, wasn't this the very problem that got us into the housing crisis that so many people who couldn't afford homes were actually given mortgages? in fact, some from predatory lenders. aren't there now strict guidelines of who can get a mortgage? >> they're more strict than ever before. they went back to the old days where people have to put 20% down. there is tax returns, credit reports, things that should have

happened that are now not going to happen. their statement -- i understand what they're saying, but the problem is that, in fact, they're going to start overseeing credit bureaus. they're going to regulate credit bureaus and say listen, if, in fact, you are not properly credit reporting, that therefore, they're saying that's a form of discrimination. wait a second. there is also a pool of peep, nonminorities, who are faced with the same problems. look. minorities should be offended in this, don't you at some point get tired of being called a minority and as opposed to being an american? people that own a home, the home doesn't know what color you are, they don't know what race you are. if there is going to be standards in america for loaning homes, don't put people in a position where maybe a year from now or a year and a half from now they're going to be in default and lose their home again. should there be discrimination and lending?

of course not. but you don't go back on a policy that put this country in this position. in other words, you're not doing them a favor. that is what is, in addition to that what's so patronizing and sickening, the timing of it is only for votes. they could have said this a year and a half ago of the they could have done this a year and a half ago. why are they doing it? they're doing it now because the election. it's politics at its best and that should be offensive. >> ali: bob massi, we can hear how fired up you are about this issue. thanks for coming in and talking about it. >> thank you very much. >> ali: here is another entry for the woosification of america. her son got a c in chemistry. what did his mom do? she sued the teacher, of course. then, at nine years old, he's turning farming into an internet sensation. ♪ this cow is crazy ♪ but here is an udder. ♪ smote so milk him maybe. >> ali: that singing sensation and his brother are coming up

>> ali: fox business alert. the labor department just releasing brand-new weekly

jobless numbers. 353,000 first-time unemployment claims were filed last week. that is down from 386,000 the week before and less than expected. let's bring in eric bolling from "the five" to talk about these numbers. >> that's good number. 353, you want to push toward 350, even below, when the economy starts to look like it's creating jobs again. that's weekly jobless claims, first-time initial jobless claims. people walking into the unemployment office for the first time. continuing claims is 2 1/2 million people. but the number, under 360, towards 350 is good. we had been pushing 400 for the most part of the last two years. but remember this, next week the gdp number comes out. so that is the real -- this will move markets a little bit. i wouldn't be surprised -- >> steve: what's the prediction on the gdp? >> initial predictions were 1.5% increase growth versus the prior quarter, which is way subpar. but the latest we're hearing, the economists are coming out

saying the number might be too high. it might be 1.3, 1.2. it doesn't sound like a lot difference, but on a $14 trillion economy, it's big number. so if you don't get 2%, 2, 3% growth, couple things happen. you can't create jobs. the other thing, all these projections on what stimulus worked or didn't work, obamacare, all these are projections are based on a 3% gdp growth. anything subpar of that is going to make everything cost a lot more and going to make the jobless numbers a lot worse. >> brian: what does this say to you, what is it the fed expect being they're thinking of printing more money examine going to qe 3? >> when that number comes out a week from tomorrow, friday at 8:30 f that number is below 1 1/2, below expectations, you'll probably see the fed turn up the notch and say we're going to throw more money out there. stuart varney mentioned it. it does two things, he said it helps the stock market, yes, true, stock market will go -- it helps the mortgage rates stable. and also helps possibly helps president obama, who people feel

a little better about things even though things aren't that much better when you stimulate them. >> steve: what's interesting about that is ben bernanke, who heads the fed, has said i'm not a political guy. i'm not involved in politics. but at the same time, mitt romney said one of the first things he'd do as president would be to fire ben bernanke. >> they're all political. they say they're not, but they all like their jobs and make a lot of money in speeches how and when they're done. >> brian: the president did something interesting yesterday. starting to talk about his own record. he said this, he has this take on his record and his policies as compared to what he believes what mitt romney would do. listen. >> last time they were tried was by a guy named bill clinton and we created 23 million new jobs, from deficits to surplus. and we created a lot of millionaires to boot. in some ways the other side understands that their theories aren't particularly popular, so

rather than explain them clearly, they're going to spend most of their time trying to distort what i say. earlier today governor romney was at it again. he's been twisting my words around to suggest that i don't value small business. >> disturbing for a couple of reasons. you mentioned we. he said we. we referring to bill clinton's presidency and what bill clinton did. i put together board here showing the difference between a clinton presidency, what happened then and what president obama has got going on right now. business taxes. both presidents propose and wanted to raise taxes on the highest 1%. business taxes. clinton cut business taxes. obama wants to raise business taxes in the form of investment, et cetera. food stamps. under bill clinton, food stamp usage went down $2 billion. under president obama, it's up $40 billion. almost 100% increase in food stamps. gasoline was flat during the duration of clinton's presidency on average.

it's up 91% under president obama. here is the biggest one, guys. household wealth. under president clinton, up 42% in the eight years. so far under president obama, we're down 35%. that is a failure. i'm pretty sure bill clinton is walking around going, really? you want to use some of my record on your resume? >> brian: and welfare reform as well. >> bill clinton reformed welfare. he added work. if you were receiving a welfare check, you were at least supposed to try to be working. president obama, last week said you know what? let's remove some of those things. we can count journaling and massages as work. >> steve: it's work for him. it's called "the five." watch it at 5:00 o'clock right here the fox business channel. >> brian: now to your headlines. dogs and cats, it seems as though they're allowed to vote. yep. there is rising concern about possible voter fraud in virginia and mitt romney calling for the

state to investigate. nonprofit group are mailing out voter registration forms to dead people, children, pets. admitting thousands of forms were sent out to the voter participation center which tries to register people is blaming it on the faulty mailing list. >> ali: police this morning trying to hunt down the person behind the shocking kidnapping of cal ripken, junior's mom. an armed man abducting 74-year-old violet ripken at her home near baltimore and forcing her to drive away in her car. his mom found unharmed. >> brian: in the back seat. >> ali: mysterious. >> steve: meanwhile, he never saw him coming. watch as hunter kemper bikes down a hill 35 miles an hour when a fellow competitor steps out into the race and clips him. watch this.

he ended up shattering his left elbow. he had to get a plate and 13 screws. that hasn't brought the 36-year-old down. he'll now be competing in his fourth olympic games. god bless him. >> brian: wow. from the tough to the not so tough. c plus in chemistry lead to go a lawsuit. 17-year-old boy and his mommy suing the albany unified school district in california to get his grade changed to an a plus. the lawsuit naming the teacher, claiming she intentionally ride to ruin his future after a dispute over a missed lab. reports say the teacher was put on leave before her retirement and the district's attorney was unavailable for comment. >> steve: his mommy. is that what you said? >> brian: that's what she is, i believe. >> steve: she is. all right. let's find out what kind of weather we've got ahead for mommies and daddies and children alike across the 48 connected states. heavy stuff moving through the northeast at this hour already.

this is kind of early. and they are suggesting there could be tornadic activity to the north and to the west of the new york city metropolitan area. this storm system scoots right across through portions of the ohio valley, northern missouri valley and mississippi valley, down to eastern portion of texas. current temperatures, things are warming up. it's in the 80s across much of texas and dixieland. it will be even hotter on this thursday. 106 for you folks up in phoenix. 101 in dallas. here in new york city, 91 and 88 in chicago. >> brian: the women won their opening world cup game. >> steve: soccer. >> ali: my kids were watching. listen to this story, he spent 27 years behind bars for a crime he did not commit. but he's not angry. he's singing this country's praises literally. he just sang the national anthem at a major league baseball game and he's here live to talk about it. >> steve: great. plus, who is the better driver? men or women? oh, oh john stossel here, bravely to

>> steve: what you think you know might not be so. there are many myths out there that people believe. but this week on his show, john stossel sets out to separate fact from fiction and his first involves the national forest service? >> yeah. you assume the government with all its resources uses the latest technology to do what it's supposed to do, the forest service is supposed to put out all the forest fires.

there's a new fire retardant that i tried it, it's supposed to be better. 200 fire departments use it. number of states use it. the forest service is reluctant to try it. here i dip my arm. it works better, they can spray it on the fires. >> steve: and? n they won't do. they say, we don't know that this will work. gets too close to the fire. one of the myths we'll cover. >> steve: shouldn't everybody be using it if it's a miracle product? >> i don't presume to know all the science and all the reasoning behind it. but when 200 fire departments and many states have started to use it, how come our government is so slow? >> steve: no kidding. here is another -- perhaps it's a myth. you'll hear all the time, we're running out of oil. we need to have more chevy volts, stuff like that. >> jimmy carter in 1977 said, within ten years, we'll be out. it's 40 years later, human brains are inventive.

we find new ways to get oil. >> steve: so? there is plenty? >> there is plenty of myths. the full moon makes people act crazy. that men are better drivers. >> steve: my wife is a much better driver than i am. >> young woman will pay $3,000 for car insurance. men have to pay 5,000 'cause we're twice as likely to crash per mile driven. >> steve: really? >> we're better drivers, just more stupider and wreckless. >> steve: i think that's probably true. more road rage from guys, stuff like that. somebody just cut me off, i'm going to zoom up alongside him examine give him a special one finger salute many people here in new york city do. >> we drive faster and we are more likely to crash. that's what i've learned over my career. it's why i wrote "no, they can't." a lot of people we think are true are not. >> steve: we heard it so many times, we assume they are true. >> certain things are intuitive. we're using oil, sucking it out

of the ground, it's logical it would deplete. you have to really study it to understand. human beings find new ways, fracking, getting more oil out of the same wells, using it better. overpopulation causes poverty. oops. those are brains that create new things, too. most overpopulated countries are some of the richest countries. >> steve: look at that. he's going to explore and figure out which is true and which is not on the stossel program. fact or fiction. join john tonight on fox business. >> thanks. >> steve: all right. straight ahead, john was just talking to this guyment he spent 27 years behind bars for a crime he did not commit. he's not angry. he's singing the country's praises literally. he just sang the national anthem in a major league baseball game and he is live next. good morning to you, sir. right now, let's check in with bill hemmer for a preview of what starts in 12 minutes. >> he's got a cool story. >> steve: he does. amazing story.

>> ali: we have an incredible story to share. in the 1980, william dylan was just 21-years-old when he was sent to prison for a murder he did not commit. after numerous appeals and 27

years behind bars, dna evidence finally cleared him of the crime. >> brian: despite being locked up for the better part of his life, dylan never lost his love for his country and the game of baseball. that's right. last week he decided to sing the national anthem before a major league baseball game. ♪ land of the free ♪ and the home of the brave >> ali: what a beautiful voice! joining us today as a free man is bill dunn. great to have you here. >> great to be here. >> brian: how long have you been out now? >> i've been out since november 18, 2008. i've actually 24 years old as a free man. >> ali: because you lost 27 years behind bars again for a crime you never committed. you were convicted on faulty

eyewitness testimony. dna evidence finally cleared you. those 27 years, those are lost. how can you say that you're not infuriated at the system and the country that put you behind bars? >> you pretty much have to say that bitterness is a sour pill to swallow. if you want to stay bitter your whole life and worry about what happened to you, then you're actual lea going to die with alwaysers and everything. it was a painful and sad situation, but let me tell you, it's more better to be a positive person and move on from that point in my life than it is to sit there and worry about what happened to me at that point. they're gone. i can't get them back. >> brian: you're in your 50s now. you were in your 20s then. when did this mindset take over? >> it took over about 15 years into my sentence. i saw a program with some kids in a cancer center, country singer came into the hospital and he was talking to these kids with bandannas on their heads, six months to live. and just looking at the program on television where i was

working, it broke my heart and it told me that i didn't really have a lot to cry about. i was in a bad situation, but i was still alive and healthy and doing things. it broke my heart. i kept remembering every single day and told myself that no matter what the situation, i lost hope and at the same time, i turned to a positive person. i really think it helped move things towards exonerating me from prison. >> ali: there are so many heart breaking moments of your story. one of them is that at 21-years-old, you loved baseball and you stood a chance at becoming a professional baseball player. you were scouted by detroit, but then all this happened. >> that is correct. i was being scouted because i did my high school years in england. my stepfather was in the air force. so i didn't have the opportunity to go in high school and play baseball 'cause they didn't play basketball over there. they took you to school and learned you. it wasn't playing sports. i didn't have the opportunity, but my father set up the opportunity with some contacts from detroit. i was actually on my second one

and i was very good and that's all i had ever done. >> brian: so you got your demo tape to the devil rays and got a chance to sing. when did the singing take over? >> i started writing songs -- i wrote the song on my cd in 1985 on toilet paper. it was a point in my life where i was in a cell and i had nothing but a couple pieces of paper and an envelope in my life. right after i had been attacked in prison. a little while later, held me it a cell. but the singing took over years ago. i was myself a poet. i started writing songs and never thinking anybody was ever going to hear them. more than anything, it was a part of my soul and soothed me. >> ali: how can people get your cd? >> it's available on amazon.com and itunes and almost all o. i had my own web site. >> brian: listen, if you hear this story, you like good music

and you want to help support this extraordinary man who went through extraordinary hell, go get this cd. this is the one thing people with can do. correct? >> yes, please, get the cd. thank you very much. it's awesome to be here, america. hi, mom. >> ali: we also know that you wanted to say a special thank you to geraldo rivera. >> i certainly do. i want to say a special thanks to you, geraldo rivera, for exposing john preston, the dog handler in 1986, to be a fraud. the man that actually made me a suspect in this murder. thank you so much, sir. >> ali: wow. that's great. >> brian: hopefully you'll get a chance to see him. >> i was hoping he was going to be here. that's the case right there, yes, sir. thank you. >> ali: that's great. it's a pleasure to meet you. >> amazing to be here, thank you so much for having me. >> brian: great to see you. >> ali: brian is his favorite. >> brian keeps it going. >> brian: and i'm honored. >> he is. >> ali: more "fox & friends" in two minutes
