and hey there, good morning. it is saturday, the 9th of november, 2013. a fox news alert. a security breach at a major airport, a man makes his way past the tsa through another secured door and into the cockpit of an airplane. the breaking details, ahead. and the president says he's sorry, but did he just tell another lie about the number of people losing their health care? >> we're talking about 5% of the population that were in what's called the individual market. >> a surprise? well, it turns out the administration predicated a lot more people would lose that insurance back in 2010. details, ahead.
3:01 am
and shocking statements from tom cruz igniting a firestorm of controversy. he says being an actor on a film is as hard as being a soldier on tour in afghanistan. hmmm. really? fox & friends begins right now. >> hey, this is joe biden and you're watching fox & friends. and we're all friends among. thank you so much, joe. did you see, i don't know even know what the segment is, but there was a naked man down the hall. >> very inappropriate. >> you never know wa you're going to find on fox & friends. >> here, unbelievable setup we've got. >> first, we've got some headlines. >> we'll get right to that. overnight, a security breach at the seattle washington airport. police say a man believed to be on drugs crashed through airport
3:02 am
security. then ran away and somehow ended up on an american airlines plane. he was taken into custody after putting up a fight with police officers and tsa agents. he is now facing several charges. also happening while you were sleeping, a jury finds a utah doctor guilty of killing his wife. >> we tell jury having reviewed the evidence and testimony in the case find the defendant of count one murder guilty. and to count two, obstruction of justice, guilty dated this 9th day of november. >> family of michelle macneill crying out in the courtroom as the guilty verdict is read. it took 1 is hours for jurors to convict martin macneill of drowning his wife in the bathroom. prosecutors alleged he knocked his wife out with drugs after having cosmetic surgery, put her in the bathroom and held her head under the water.
3:03 am
the motive? a mistress he was seeing on the side. macne will i l faces life in prison. and a georgia has now indicted 11 bikers relate to the road rage assault case. charges include gang assault and criminal miss which i hachief. they are still looking for more people in that attack. the skylight afire in one world trade center building is lighting up the sky with red, white and blue. the light can be seen up to 50 miles away. those are your headlines. we have a clear sky this morning. >> you can see it coming across the water. cleanup efforts under way in the philippines after typhoon haiyan decimated the country. reports are more than 100 people are dead, another 1100 are injured after one of the
3:04 am
strongest storms on record slamming into the island. winds reaching up to 150 miles per hour and nearly 800,000 people were evacuated, many of them already living in makeshift shelters after a major earthquake last month. rick. >> that earthquake was very close to that exact same area just about three weeks ago, so unfortunately a lot of people not in stable housing yet. this was the strongest landfalling typhoon hurricane we've seen anywhere on the planet. the one prior to that was hurricane camille, a 190-mile-per-hour storm back in 1969. take a look at the storm and what happens with this at the center. you talk about that eye of the hurricane. this is it, and incredibly well defined, cutting in here through an area that has about 3.5 million people. that town right there you see, tacloban, that's a town where there are now just in the last couple of hours a report of over 100 bodies lying in the streets. most of these towns have been completely cut off from communication and that's just one of the first reports that
3:05 am
we've seen come in here. so there's a lot of fear that the death toll is going to rise dramatically once communication is reestablished and once people are able to get into all these islands. it's a chair in a series of a bunch of small islands, so it's difficult to get in and get information out of that. they're still dealing with the storm. a category 3 type storm. it's going to hit vietnam sometime tomorrow. we're going to talk about a lot of area in that. it's going to hug the coastlines. potentially a big flooding and life threatening situation again as the strong continues. guys. >> thanks, rick. >> thanks a lot, rick. the president gave something of an apology the other day, at least something that go ahead look like an apology. but did he have just tell another lie while apology guising for the first lie? president obama claims it's just 5% of people that are at risk of losing their health insurance. but his administration predicted
3:06 am
in 2010 that as many as 60% of large companies and 80% of small businesses would be forced to give up the plan they like because of obama care. >> if you missed the president's apology on thursday, take a listen to what he had to say. we'll dive more deeply into these numbers. listen. >> first of all, i meant what i said and we worked hard to try to make sure that we implemented this properly. but, obviously, we didn't do a good enough job, and i regret that. we're talking about 5% of the population who are in what's called the individual market. they're out there buying health insurance on their own. >> so the news agency broke down these numbers. it turns out it's not just 5%. would be over 41 million people, which breaks down to about 17% of the population. karl rove, numbers man himself, did he see what he said about this? >> it wasn't a good apology. you do not apologyize for a lie
3:07 am
by telling another lie. the affordable care act was designed in a way that meant that people were going to lose their coverage. in december of 2009, the congressional budget office estimated between 7 million and 8 million people would lose their coverage in a public letter sent to the majority leader of the united states senate, harry reid. should be in march of 2010, in a letter sent by the cbo to nancy pelosi updating their estimate, they repeated that they thought that a minimum of 7 million to 8 million people would lose their coverage. in april the health and human services department said, no, no, it's going to be 14 million. there have been a whole series of reports since then that have said no, no, the estimate from the group of 17 million, from the american action network of 35 million, from the national center of policy analysis, 1 00 million. and why? because the law is designed in a way that says if you have a policy that does not meet higher standards, more benefits and these exacting requirements, it has to be canceled.
3:08 am
>> so basically, karl rove there saying -- covering up one lie with another lie and we have the paper trial to prove it. 2014 is right around the corner. i imagine you're going to start to see some democrats saying, wait a minute, mr. president, you are backing us into a corner with this. if you remember back in 2008 when people were really upset with the way things were going and started voting with their wallets, similar to what's going on with this, what did they do? they went into the voting booth and it had ripple effects across the country. >> you've got about a dozen or so incumbents in the senate who voted for obama care and many are not only backing away from it, they're demanding that people like can keep their insurance. the problem is implementation. the president says we didn't implement it right. no, the problem is the bill itself in that it requires
3:09 am
healthy people and young people to subsidize people who are unhealthy. that's the basic problem with it. and if we're going to crunch the numbers later in the show, because some of the people that have signed up, it's ridiculous, the number of people who have signed up in north carolina. the young people, though, are not signing up at all right now. it's the older folks who are signing up. maybe they're hoping the young people are procrastinating like they wait until the last minute like they do a paper in college. they're not signing up. >> well, think of it this way. washington, d.c. is the most democratic place in the united states. 94% for obama, the first time roughly the same in the mid 90s. how many people signed up for oh bam in ma care in washington, d.c.? any idea? five. five people in the most democratic place in the country just tells you the dogs aren't eating the dog food. this is not an appealing program for ordinary people, even for people who love obamobama.
3:10 am
did you hear about this y? tom cruise, he's working right now, he's been kind of quiet over the past couple of years, trying to rebuild his career after the falling out of katie holmes, the scientology, remember him jumping on the couch on oprah's set. he's been trying to rebuild his career when we get word of some back .forth discussions with lawyers in a sealed court case. remember, he was furious about being defamed by "in touch" magazine and eye life & style" magazine because they said he was basically ignoring his daughter. so he went after them with this $50 million defamation lawsuit. now we're get something startling conversations that came out of those meetings. >> apparently the "top gun" actor is saying he was respond to go a lawyer's question when he was comparing the extended time away from his daughter,
3:11 am
suri, with a soldier in afghanistan. that's what it feels like, cruise responded. now his attorney is coming back and saying the assertion that tom cruise likened maybicing a movie to being in war in afghanistan is a gross distortion of the record. lawyer burt fields e-mailed the statement was tom said laughingly is that sometimes that's what it feels like. oh, so laughingly makes it better when these folks are at home just hoping that bullets intended for their heads and bombs are not going off and -- >> this is what happens when nobody tells the truth. you see this with the president and actors and people who are always sucking up to you. you wind up with a grotesque sense of your own importance and totally isolated from reality. i'm just like a soldier. i'm like a member of s.e.a.l.
3:12 am
team six away from my own family. >> i've got my own trailer, it's difficult for me because i can't get the m&ms i wanted. >> and then you meet a veteran like we had on last week who had part of his leg shot off, had part of his hand shot off, had part of his face and reconstructive surgery sitting right here on the kuch, a remarkable man, one of the most humble people you'd ever meet to see something like that. what was your message be this morning to tom cruise? on our facebook page, what message would you have? was it taken out of context or was it totally in context? >> sign up for obama care and you could be setting yourself up for identity theft. even worse, the government may have known this was a possibility all along. and you still need to on pick up your thanksgiving bird? really? do we have to do that already? oh. make it a tipsy turkey. we're going to meet the farmer who is feeding his foul beer. >> what?

3:16 am
if you sign up for obama care, you could be exposing yourself to identity thieves. that's because of a new document that shows state insurance depends are able to security security when they launch. >> good morning to you. >> good morning to you. >> basically, we're starting to see documents that say the website isn't ready security wise, but let's go ahead with it. >> i spoke with cms yesterday and they declined to comment on the state side of things. what they did tell me that the federal exchanges and the data hub are compliant with national security standards and that they have done independent assessment and security is an ongoing concern for them.
3:17 am
i spoke to a source on the matter on the state exchange side and they said this is really a state by state, case by case analysis. so they've done internal security analysis and they do have reach plans in place in case something were to happen as far as hackers were concerned, and that these independent assessments have to be done and it's up to the state to have them done. so on they have until march 31st to complete these. the exchange launched on october on 1st. so if you enroll in the intrimt, it's possible you could be putting yourself at risk. and there's an indication people have put their data at risk. >> this is an ongoing issue here. they could have concerned on the data security side of things. >> is this legal? >> i spoke to analysts yesterday and they said calling it illegal is kind of touchy. it's not smart is what they said because if hackers were to get ahold of your information, obama care is a huge high profile hack. we put our security at risk all the time, but if a hacker were
3:18 am
to get ahold of something and hack into the obama care exchange, that's a huge win on the hacker side. >> big companies with a lot at stake, personal data banks, for example, spend hundreds of millions of dollars a year protecting themselves from hackers because they're at risk for it. and yet it seems like the obama care site launched without real concern about that. >> exactly. we saw earlier this week when kathleen sebelius testified that navigators weren't necessarily given background checks. she said it could be possible for an excon to be operating as a navigator. so that's another concern for consumers here. you have to be careful when you're signing up, be aware that your personal information could be at risk and keep an eye on your social security numbers, your date of birth, your social security number, your name, they're home free. >> katie, this is mind boggling for a lot of people at home going, you know what? for the job that i had, i had to
3:19 am
have a background check. we have a kwoek from hhs and the privacy of security and consumer information is a top priority for us. when consumers fill out their online application information, they can trust that the information they are providing is protected by stringent security standards. but haven't we heard reports for some people coming out saying just the opposite? >> yeah. people are saying their information has been compromised, put at risk. so you definitely need to sign up for those alerts, make sure ta you are keeping track of your credit card information, your social security, see if anybody if opening up credit cards in your name, using your identity for different, unvafry information. you have to take it upon yourself to be smart because it looks like some things are falling through the crack here. >> it certainly does. a shrink telling a custody judge a father is an unfit parent because he wouldn't take his son to mcdonald's. now, that father is suing.
3:20 am
does he have a case? we have a legal debate, coming up. and then before you sign that next e-mail with a best wishes or sincerely, it turns out your e-mail signature says a whole lot about you. if you're coming across mean or even too friendly? we'll dive into that. the day we rescued riley was a truly amazing day. he was a matted mess in a small cage. so that was our first task, was getting him to wellness. without angie's list, i don't know if we could have found all the services we needed for our riley. from contractors and doctors to dog sitters and landscapers, you can find it all on angie's list. we found riley at the shelter, and found everything he needed at angie's list. join today at angieslist.com

stick with innovation. stick with power. stick with technology. get the flexcare platinum. new from philips sonicare. how do you react when you first see this? it looks kind of like a dancer? reality check: some 4g lte coverage maps don't really look like maps. seems like maybe... a bunch of berries. this one feels more empty. what do you see here? clearly a picture of thunited states. check the map. verizon's superfast 4g lte is the most relile, and in more places than any other 4g network. i should switch to verizon immediately. that's powerful. verizon. the lg g2: featuring an intuitive rear-key design

3:24 am
the player endured daily bullying that went far beyond locker room hazing. and ford is recalling ram trucks because of a steering rod issue. it sounds like something most parents would applaud, a father stands his ground and refuses to take his 4-year-old son to mcdonald's after a temper tantr tantrum, but a psychiatrist told the judge that decision made him an unfit parent and now that father is suing the shrink for defamation. for a fair and balanced debate, we are joined by defense attorneys anna spillbore and deazo. you say this father should be outraged. why? >> he should be outraged and he
3:25 am
should get a trophy. why do we need a court appointed shrink to decide how to time share this 4-year-old little boy because he wanted to get to mcdonald's and the father put the cabosh on that? that is ridiculous. if a parent can't make a decision about where a child is going to eat, we should move. if he's not feeding the child at all, then maybe he's an unfit parent. but to say you're not going to get a happy meal today, timmy, that's not an unfit parent. >> to be clear about this, he did say normally i take my kid to the corner cafe on third avenue. he said we can go anywhere but mcdonald's or you're not eating dinner. then what ends up happening is the mom takes the kid to mcdonald's after throwing the temper tantrum. it may be bad, but you're saying there's no grounds to sue. >> definitely no grounds to sue. this is a court appointed
3:26 am
evaluator. this child, maybe it's mcdonald's, maybe deprived a happy meal.but this isn't one decision that is being based by the evaluator to the court. this is a compilation of decisions. they have to interview parents, they have to interview significant collateral people in the child's life. and probably what really you're seeing is you're seeing a pattern of withholding. a lot of times we see parents withholding things from children in matters like this, really, to get back at the other parent. >> okay. >> so something else is going on here. >> and this guy, he's a manhattan father, degrees from nyu -- >> he's a lawyer, yeah. >> so he at least has a lot going on. what is his defense going to be with this? >> well, he's suing for defamation, which it's going to fall flat because this is a court proceeding. you can't really go there with a court proceeding. but he's going to have to say in the judge in this custody battle, she's a quack. don't listen to her opinion. he can go .hire his own shrink to re-evaluate things and then a
3:27 am
judge is going to say, which one am i going to believe? but at the end of the day, you hit on something more important. always love your children more than you hate your ex. what's really going on is a power play between these two parents over this little boy and that's the sad part, but that's lady courts. >> thank you very much, ladies. that dad, man, it seems like he was trying to do a good job. 27 minutes after the hour now. coming up on fox & friends, a student body president at a christian university makes a shocking admission. he's an atheist. wait until you hear what was said about that. plus, wine being made in the ocean? using that process, does it match up? we find out next. avo: the volkswagen "sign then ive" sales event is bk.

3:34 am
for nonsense or i'm too indecisive to think about a proper signoff. >> how many e-mails do you think we send around here on fox? hundred necessary a day, probably. when i first got here, i used to write thanks, exclamation point and then my name. and i got tired of doing it. >> just prepopulate it. it's always there, you never have to type it. it just exists on your slate. >> so do you put your phone number at the bottom of it, too, and all that? >> oh, no, no. but these are the ones that are prepopulated. cheers. i used to write cheers a lot. it's friendly, but makes it sound like you need a drink. i don't use that any more. now i just use thanks, which apparently is better than thank you, according to this report. how do you sign off in your e-mail? >> there you go. first, we need to get to some headlines, as well. the family of a woman killed during a mass shooting at the

washington navy yard is suing the government for $37.5 million. mary knight's family says red flags about the killer's mental health were ignored. >> it was picked up by the newark rhode island police and they saw that he was delusional and crazy and hearing voices. and so they faxed to the navy the report of this delusional crazy man. what did the navy do? well, they took a look at it. they just blew it off. >> knight was one of 12 people killed by aaron alexis on september the 16th. the student body president at a christian university in oregon makes a shocking admission. he's an atheist. eric brahm surprised classmates at northwest christian university by revealing to the newspaper that he does not believe in god. school officials say they wish he was a christian man, but praised brahm for his character. the 21-year-old says he enrolled

at the university despite his religious doubts because of its strong communications program. a machete wielding robber chases men through a parking lot demanding money. first he droep bif the two victims in a car. minutes later, he showed up with the machete. >> the guy looks like he's just waiting out there, sees these people, desperate for money. they tell him he doesn't have money. he thought he lied to them. then they realized they didn't have money so he walks them with his machete. >> the would-be robber is still on the run. call it marinating your turkey from the inside out. a farmer in new hampshire is feeding his turkeys beer which he says will make them taste better on your thanksgiving table. he says he discovered it by accident when he spilled a beer and the turkeys gobbled it up.

morning discovery. a guy in their ceiling. they don't know how long he was up there, but they called police and he was arrested for trespassing and property damage. and researchers discover a rare new species of shark by accident. it's called the carolina hammer head. it looks just like other hammer heads, but it's genetic makeup is completely different. the university of fish experts stumbled on the find while researching shark hubs in the base. 1963, the day begins with an excited welcome for president kennedy outside his ft. worth, texas, hotel. in nearby dallas, oswald is going to work with a hidden rifle. he kept it in ruth and michael payne's garage. >> the blanket looked like camping equipment. i think it never occurred to michael that there might be a gun. >> it is 8:45 central time. in less than four hours, president kennedy will be dead. >> that's a sneak preview of the special airing tonight, called
3:46 am
50 years of questions. the jfk assassination. one man who shares his story was a witness to what happened that day. in fact, he was injured by the same gunfire that may have killed president kennedy. the experience changed history. joining us now is james teague. he's the author of this excellent new book called lbj and the kennedy killing. james, nice to see you this morning. take us back, if you will, to that fateful afternoon as you're standing there and arrive on dealey plaza. what did you see? >> i didn't plan to see the president. i just innocently got stopped in traffic and got out of my car to see what was going on. and i hear the pop of the fire cracker and i was thinking, wa kind of idiot is doing fire crackers. and then there was the crack, crack of two rifle shots and something stings me. >> so something stings your
3:47 am
face. and the sheriff interviews you, you're bleeding from your cheek because presumably you're hit from a bullet fragment of a piece of the curb below your feet. is that right? >> that's correct. >> and because of that shot, you and many investigators believe that there was another shooter that day, right? because the bullet fragment, the pieces that were embedded in that curb side were not the same as the bullet fragments found on the president. is that right? >> well, now, the interesting part is that the fbi covered up that shot for six months. and the warren commission announced on june the 5th of '64 they had already done their investigation, going to write the report. that's when i raised my hand and i said what about the missed shot? it turned out they called me to testify. and when i testified, they a problem. that's where they invented the magic bullet going through two men, which did not happen, an
3:48 am
impossibility. >> so the magic bullet theory conveniently excludes you, another man standing by, who ends up get ago shot that hits his face. i understand also part of the curb, they removed the curb to do analysis. what happened to that piece of curb? >> it's setting in the national archives now. but from the time "raised my hand on june the 4th, jim larrett was the man who wrote the story and went across the country on the curb. and when they reopened the warren commission. anyway, the curb is now sitting in the national archives. where that bullet hit the curb has been patched. >> it's been patched and they put chemicals over it so no one else could analyze it. very convenient. >> the point where the bullet hit is more like a mortar substance rather than concrete. >> you cover so much ground in your excellently researched
3:49 am
book. among the areas, you spoke on madeleine brown and lyndon johnson. why was she so pivotal to this whole story? >> well, she started me off. i was proud of lyndon johnson being president. he was a texan, i was a texan. i'm on a plane one day going to new york and the lady next to me, it turns out, is madeleine brown, lyndon johnson's mistress for 21 years. well, she told me the god awfulest story i'd ever heard about him. and i really didn't believe it at that time until i started running into other people telling me the same stories. they were insiders to johnson. >> unbelievable. james, unfortunately we're out of time. i could talk to you all morning. can we cancel the rest of the show? you have to read the rest of it in his book. thanks so much, james, for

this week, northwestern university's football team showed off some specially worn uniforms meant to honor our veterans. but some critics say the uniforms look like the flag is streaked with blood. walker jones, grassroots at under armour and speak of the wounded warrior himself, thank you both very much. so explain this criticism. it's totally confusing to me. streaked with blood? >> we understand there's a group out there that has a difference of opinion and interpretation of the uniform than what was intended. wa i will say is that, you know, we take honoring our military very seriously, that burden, and we go through an extensive vetting process when we do that. both internally and with our partners when we do that. and through that process, we came one a pattern which is meant to symbolize a flag that has flown proudly abroad over

good morning. it is saturday, the 9th of november, 2013. a fox news alert. while you were sleeping, a verdict is reached in the murder case of a utah doctor. >> we tell jury, having reviewed the evidence and testimony in the case, find the defendant as to court one murder -- >> so did the jury find him guilty of killing his own wife? the breaking details, ahead. and it's not what you'd expect from an actor. >> there's, you know, an entitled -- an entitlement that is start to go emerge that i think is unhealthy for people
4:01 am
and unhealthy for our country. >> so is the american dream dead? couples, we'll tell you which will make your marriage better if you break them. ahh. marriage counseling. fox & friends this morning hour two starts right now. >> if you like fox & friends, you will keep fox & friends. >> that is true. >> yes, it is. >> who was that, clayton? >> that was -- i don't know. somebody who knows our voice mixed together with president obama. >> welcome into fox & friends on a saturday morning. >> we need to get to your saturday morning headlines. overnooim night, a security breach at the seattle washington airport, police say a man believed to be on drugs crashed through airport security and then ran away and somehow ended up on an empty american airlines plane. he was taken into custody after putting up a fight with police
4:02 am
officers and tsa agents. he is now facing several charges. also new overnight, a jury finds a utah doctor guilty of killing his wife. >> we tell jury having reviewed the evidence and testimony in the case find the defendant as to count one murder guilty. as to count two, obstruction of justice, guilty. dated this 9th day of november. >> thank you. please be seated. >> that's the family of the victim michelle macneill crying out in the courtroom as the guilty verdict is read. it took 11 hours to convict martin macneill of drowning his wife on in a bathtub. prosecutors argue he knocked his wife out with drugs after kos on mettic surgery and helped her into the bathtub and held her head under water. the motive? a mistress he was seeing on the side. sentencing is scheduled for january. mac neill is facing life in prison. is a nuclear weapons deal
4:03 am
with iran in reach? top diplomates are working to scale down the program. here is what we know. the u.s. wants iran to limit its uranium enrichment. iran wants the world's biggest countries to losing economic sanctions. there is no deal in sight. benjamin netanyahu says he rejects the idea of an agreement. >> this is a bad deal. a very, very bad deal. it's the deal of the century for iran. it's a very dangerous and bad deal for peace in the international community. >> trying to ease tensions, president obama reached out to ben na minute netanyahu to assure them that he is committed to prevent iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon. a satellite ran out of gas last month and has slowly been
4:04 am
falling to earth. scientists say sometime between sunday and monday morning, the satellite will enter earth's atmosphere. they say it will break into pieces, the biggest ones likely landing in the ocean. we hope so. >> i hope so. remember that, rick, when we had taco bell? taco bell ended up putting that big target out in the ocean and if the target broke up, we would all get a free taco. >> i don't remember that. >> i wanted that dollar taco. gl. >> rick. >> i'm not paying a dollar for a taco, a taco bell taco. >> this is, of course, that typhoon, the getting under way this morning. what do we know about where this is headed and what it's left in its wake. >> it's a scary situation. yesterday, there were reports of four fatalities and it seemed very low. now there's the town tacoban and
4:05 am
there are reports now coming out of over 100 bodies in the streets. there's a lot of places that had been completely cut off from communication. it will take a while to get estimates of the some of the damage that was done. it's the third typhoon that hit the village this year. this one, if it verifies and likely it will, will be considered the strongest typhoon that has made landfall anywhere across the earth. the prior record was back in 1969. this is a look at the satellite image over the last 48 hours. now it's getting closer here. this went through a pretty populous area, about 3.5 million people right where the center of this went through and communications are completely cut off. guys, i have to tell you, i just looked at the models also and there are indications that there is another storm building wind this and will take the same path which would be really, really devastating. >> into the same area? >> yeah, into the same area. that's some of the indications
4:06 am
coming up now. >> hoping that doesn't happen. >> let's turn our attention this morning to obama care and the numbers. we talked about this earlier in the show that we were going to break down and crunch some of these numbers for you when pressed at the podium a few weeks ago. jay carney was answering the questions as to how many people signed up because of the website in the first day, that only six people had signed up. now we're getting a better look at how this is spread out across the united states and in different states, specifically. >> yeah. we kept hearing we'll find out in mid november about everything. well, the number, according to a gallop poll that have gone to or attempted to go to the health exchange website since october the 1st, 18% of all uninsured adults who plan on or got insurance through an exchange and only five obama care signups we want to tell but going on in washington, d.c. and it's even worse in north carolina. >> one person has signed up for obama care in north carolina. >> who is that person?
4:07 am
>> i don't know. but feel free to call into the show. the president himself in his semi apology the other day blames the implementation of obama care for these problems. but the truth is, the law itself isn't working. even if there were no glitches whatsoever, you still would have the same core problem, which is healthy people are not signing up to subsidize the unhealthy. and, you know, there's no getting around that. members of congress, by the way, atting surprised because they never read the bill before they voted for it. democrats running for re-election running away from it. but there's no running away from this. you voted for this bill. >> it has been wa, five weeks now? >> right. young people, your point about the structure of it, is that young people -- .i think they're just hoping that they're procrastinating like young people do. you wait to turn in that paper until the last mip, that they're suddenly going to start to sign up. it turns out the old people are the ones who may be starting to
4:08 am
sign up. the young people are not. so more on that. but the president on a bit of a campaign yesterday to try to turn the attention back to the economy. let's stop talking about obama care, let's start talking about the economy because you got a better than expected jobs report yesterday. you see, we could have been doing so much better pointing the blame at those who have stalled the economy. listen to the president. >> we learned yesterday that over the summer our economy grew at its fastest pace in a year. that's the good news. the bad news is that the very day the economic quarter ended, some folks in washington decided to shut down the government and threaten to default on america's obligations for the first time in more than 200 years. and it's like the gears of our economy, every time they are just about to take off, suddenly somebody tab tap tess brakes and says, not so fast. >> so the most powerful man in the world is actually a victim. that's what he's saying. it's not my fault. five years in, more money spent
4:09 am
trying to goose this economy through the stimulus, multiple stimulus packages than ever spent in american history and yet the economy isn't soaring because a small group of republicans are crazy. >> according to the stimulus. and we've seen the shrinking workforce and we've seen it in young people. you spent all of this money, you would expect an expanding workforce. so that's leaving many critics to say is this idea of the american dream one worked hard, you can earn a solid paycheck, is this idea of the american dream dead? lou dobbs last night had some interesting thoughts on this idea of the american dream. listen. >> i think that there is a very good case to be made that we are looking at the prospect of civil unrest. we are looking at a population of on americans that have never had to deal with the fact that 50% are living in poverty, that 50% of the folks out there, 50 million of the folks -- >> entitlements. >> are on food stamps.
4:10 am
this isn't the american dream. >> lou dobbs brings up a big point to put it back on obama care, too, when many people are living paycheck to paycheck and then they realize how much more money their health care is going to be costing them double, triple sometimes what they were paying them before. but you could see them taking to the streets and the actually having civil unrest, just as you mentioned there and it's another problem associated with obama care, all these unintended consequences. well, and i think what he's talking about, there's some precedent for this over in europe. we saw what was happening on the streets of greece when you take entitlements away from people, people don't get upset. >> well, when mass intercedes, it's jarring for people because they've been told, by the way by both parties, i hate to say is, that you're entitled to these programs. they're your birth right. we owe these to you. it's not true, but they've been told by generations of politicians that you've already
4:11 am
earned this. and to take them away is a shock. >> right. and that's why, you know, it's called the third rail of politics. ashton kutcher, we bash hollywood because they so often live in a bubble. ashton seems to know what's going on. listen to what he says about our entitlement generation. >> i think that so much of what we see in the world today is this sort of propaganda machine around fame and around the celebrity and i actually think that there are some kids in the world that grow up today that think, when i grow up, i want to be famous instead of when i grow up, i want to do something, i want to create something, and there's an entitlement that is starting to emerge that i think is unhealthy for people and unhealthy for our country. >> maybe some of the steve jobs stuff wore off on him.
4:12 am
>> did he really just say that on ellen? >> what did ellen say? >> i'm not a big ellen viewer, but that's amazing. it's so right. >> it's the second time wheelchair heard him get on a soap box, though, and fought be the playboy from two and a half men and, dude, where's my car? >> he did that great commencement speech, too. >> and he said i never quit a job until i had another job. he was playing off the steve jobs movie that he played steve jobs. but, yeah, it's pretty shocking to see. >> i think we should book him. >> yeah. i'll tweet him right now. he's on social media. >> if you would. >> he has more twitter followers than anybody else. coming up here on the show, want better insurance rates understand the affordable care act? you may need to get a divorce. the shocking slap in the face delivered to married couples. it is saturday and yet brian is here.

4:17 am
married. >> that's exactly right. it turns out it is better in the world of obama care to simply be living with your partner or cohabitating rather than be married. if you're a married couple and you earn, say, up to 400% of the federal poverty level or $62,000, you do not qualify for a subsidy. but if you are two individuals who don't have ta piece of paper from the government that says that you are married, then you can earn up to $91,000 and qualify for subsidies. so as you can see, it's not a small difference. this is a big economic impact that the government is discouraging people from getting married. >> yes. $30,000. it's almost unbelievable, actually, that this wasn't pointed out earlier. so obama care has been the law for years now. why are we just learning about this now? and did the members of congress who voted for this bill understand that it included a disincentive to marrying? >> well, i think that people anticipated this and it's not surprising. if you look at our current tax code, if you look at social security, we find that marriage
4:18 am
penalty happens very often. in the tax code, you know, if a single woman is working the same job as a working mow mother across the street, she's bringing home more money than that married working mother. similarly, we have the dual income tax in the social security system. this penalizes women who choose to work outside of the home and who are also married. so there's lots of snapses in which government is actually discouraging americans from creating that very stabilizing force. and i don't think it's terribly surprising why. >> well, it's grotesque. being married is the single most predictive factor in kids' lives. if your parents are married, you're less likely to go to jail, more likely to go to college, less likely to be on drugs and drink. this is established. we know this. why in the world would they want to be discouraging marriage? >> i think you hit on the most important point.
4:19 am
you and i are both married and have a pile of kids at home. but no longer is marriage being connected to that child rearing process. for democrats, who is their most important voting block? it is the unmarried women. why do you need a spouse when you can run into the comforting arms of the state. they can take care of everything from cradle to grave, early childhood education, your health care, your social security. so more .more, we are discouraging marriage and you're right, it has serious ramifications to in this society. >> yeah. i believe in political differences that, you know, don't get bitter. but in this case, you're destroying the country when you encourage this. >> yeah. >> it is bitter. sabrina, thanks for joining us this morning. >> thanks for having me. couples, forget the marriage rules you've been told to follow all your lives. this morning, we'll tell you which ones mistake your marriage better from you break them, or so say some experts. plus, brian is here on a saturday. why? to spill the secrets of america's first known spies.

4:23 am
good morning. george washington's secret six has been on sale for three days and it's soaring to the top seller list. >> the book details the secret six spies who would become the american revolution's most effective intelligence gathering operation. >> here to give us an inside look at the group is the author of george washington's secret six and fellow fox & friends
4:24 am
host brian -- >> it's so weird to be her on a saturday when the sun is up. >> it's the only way to get brian to come in and do a show is to write a book. >> right. i had to do it. >> this subject has fascinated me for years. why did you decide to write about this secret spy ring? i don't think most americans had any idea about this. >> that's one of the roens. i found out about it in '89. i was relatively angry. this took place on long island and i never knew about it. think about the field trips i took to watch former radio city oregon on and know what dumb trips i could have went and saw what washington spies were laid out, where they went, what they were and what they did. and i thought, wow, if i could bring this to the forefront and write about it in a way that wasn't a niche audience. then i realize it new york was the center of the 13 colonies, new york was violates to whether we were going to win or not. and when i saw america had a thirst for this by looking at bill o'reiley's book, killing
4:25 am
lincoln, b and not only that, take the so-called costars, the major names around them, washington, hale, that was daunting. >> now we need to know who these six are. >> they are the every day man and the every day woman. you have a woman who is a socialite. we know her at agent 365. we'll have a definite idea of who the identity is. people are helping me around the country right now. i'm getting e-mails from everywhere from rhode island to northern california with different theories on it. >> to crack the code. and for those of us audience who aren't familiar with what the code even is, what's the mystery point? >> great point. what happens is there is so much nervousness among the spies of not being caught, nathan gets hanged in two days. they know if they're caught, their families are wiped out by the british and they are killed on the spot. so washington, feeling
4:26 am
responsibility, says, okay, i have this john jay guy to give us some invisible i happ visibv. you would have a number, you wouldn't have a name. so, for example, washington was 711. abraham the farmer was 712. robert townsend the dry goods owner was 714. so they had numbers. so even if you read the letters as washington preserved them, you can't understand what the heck they mean. so you would have to get the incredible inpotition. then when you read it, you still don't understand. >> the level of advancement they had at that time beyond things that we do now in counter intelligence in our cup. >> it absolutely is. what i did is i went to the spots and, you know, lauren said go to these spots, let people know they still exist today. robert townsend, the british took over his house. well b the house is still there today and it's mini museum.
4:27 am
it's really nice. that's what it looks like. you can go in there right now and walk around and it's preserved the way it is. they also told me if i really wanted to do something, go into basement and dig around. they found robert towns yebd's papers along with spy letters in the attic which you can still open up today. then there's roast tavern. alston row was the owner. he would go 55 miles by horse. he's running a tavern, put someone else behind the bar and he would go to pick up supplies in the city. he had a cover story. that's the exact row tavern. they moved it three blocks away off the main road, but that's what it looks like. someone lives there today. what really motivated me to do is i wanted to give these guys and this woman who we believe we know who she is some credit they deserve. look at this grave site. this is robert townsend's grave.
4:28 am

from up to 50 miles away. looks like we had a nice, clear night for that. want to check in with rick now because cleanup efforts underway still in the philippines this morning from what -- an area decimated. do we have an idea yet of how bad this was there, sflik. >> yeah. new numbers are just coming in. now they're saying a thousand fatalities. the number's rising rapidly. yesterday they said four. we knew there were a number of communities that had been completely cut off from any communication. a lot of small islands there. and those slonislands, once communication is gone, you don't know. they weren't getting word out. they're saying at least a thousand. and a well-respected stormchaser that i know of here was there to document this storm. and he's saying from what he's seeing in the town he is, he's calling it mass casualties. so the -- the effects of this are getting much, much worse. the storm is now getting close in toward vietnam. we're still dealing with it. a category 3 strength storm.
5:05 am
and it's going to continue to pull in and hug the coast of vietnam and impact a lot of people. i think we're going to be seeing possible casualties and a lot of very heavy rain. guys, i -- i just mentioned to you also that some of the models are indicating another storm. this right here is a track of haiyan. that's where it is now. look at what the models do the next couple of days. another storm, doesn't look as strong at this point, but early to say on what that would be. we're talking about tuesday time frame. another storm right here at the center, going right over the same path. so if you potentially have casualties lake this and these fatalities and the damage is done there, another hurricane-type storm, typhoon, going through there in four or five days from now, it would be devastating. >> all those people already displaced, too. >> rick's keeping an eye on that storm. as we keep our eye on washington this morning, governor huckabee joins us. nice to see you this morning, governor. >> good morning. >> the president, we've been

parsing, of course, the president's so-called apology the other day. when dive more deeply into some of the numbers, what is the president telling a bit of another lie? will he have to come out with another apology? what we're specifically talking about was the people he said, people who would not lose their health care plan. the 5% was the number. 5%. seems like we're learning that that's not the number at all that will la loose their healthe plan, what do you make of those words? >> it's not something that's a surprise. he said, "we have no idea," they had good idea. the senator from wii e-mailing, in -- from wyoming, three years ago, predicted the numbers would be astronomical. that there would be tens of millions americans. ultimately there would be no private individual health care market because of the way that obama care is structured. frankly, i think a lot of us were saying four years ago, common sense says you can't add 30 million sick people into a
5:07 am
system, no pre-existing condition exclusions, no annual or lifetime benefits and somehow make it less expensive. the only way actuarially to do that is you have to greatly raise the deductibles, raise the co-pays, increase the cost to the consumer, and protect the insurer. there's no way this can work. >> you have to force other people to pay for it because it student come from nowhere. you are see being a dozen democrats running for re-election in the senate, all of whom voted for obama care the first time. almost every one is saying, "i can't believe this!" well, are they allowed to get away with that? >> no. they should go home and re-enroll in the seventh grade math course. this was not so difficult to see coming. i honestly said even four years ago when they were talking about, it look, this is like saying you can buy a car insurance for a car that's been totaled the day after it got totaled. obviously, you could create a policy like that, but who could

afford it? >> how much longer can the president continue to, as some are saying, cover up lies with more lies? i meteorologist at some point, is he going to have to say, maybe we should wait, maybe we should delay this at least somewhat? >> i hope the republicans don't say that's okay because the problem with the delay is that it gets you past the 2014 election. >> right. >> it lets the democrats pretend that there's not a problem. there is a problem. i think they've got one of two options -- fully implement it immediately as the law of the land says, that's what they keep telling us, right? the law of the land. no more exemptions. stop these special treatments for unions, big businesses. if it's great, then implement it. and i think there need to be a harder pressure on asking the president why he and his family are not willing to eat the first bowl of this that comes out of the kitchen. when they put their fork in it, maybe the rest of america will believe it's worth having. >> right. why is the white house staff not uniyoonized, by the -- unionized, by the way? if unions aren't so great, why doesn't the white house and
5:09 am
congressional staff union -- >> do as we say, not as we do. it's a hypocrisy, though, that is just stunning. no question. >> you want more hypocrisy? another bowl of hypocrisy? >> why not? >> i got one for you. this comes out of hollywood. tom cruise, who's been trying to rebuild his image after, of course, the -- jumping on oprah's couch and going crazy, all the scientology talk -- >> if i jump on this couch, i wonder if that could do something for me? >> it won't do anything, it will hurt your career as it did for tom cruise. according to "the daily news," he as part of a lawsuit, he's going after newspapers. was sitting there and this is what he said, the "top gun" actor was responding to a lawyer's question comparing the extended time away from his daughter, suir, while filming a film in afghanistan, he said, according to legal papers obtained by "the daily news,."" he said, that's what it feels like, being away from his daughter for a year, being in a movie. even if it was an off-the-cuff remark, and it probably was,
5:10 am
don't know he was literally saying i'm as in danger out on the movie set. it was a very poor choice of words because people coming back from afghanistan come back without their sight, without arms, without legs. they don't make any money out of it. some of them will struggle for the rest of their lives. tom cruise will come back from his movie. he will be in great shape. he won't have lost a limb or his sight. he will deposit a huge check in the bank and live happily ever after. there's no comparison. i think what he should have said is, you know, it's tough being away from my daughter. that's tough. but it's nothing compared to the people who go and fight in the war because they're not just away from their family, they very well could put their lives on the line. i'm just pretending to be brave. they really are brave. i pretend to be a hero. they are heroes. next time he should think -- >> governor huckabee -- >> that's lost on an actor. the reality/fantasy. who's on your show in real life? >> speaking of afghanistan, we
5:11 am
have billy and karen vaughn whose son was killed in a chinook helicopter. he was one of the navy s.e.a.l.s that was involved in the osama bin laden raid. they believe that one of the reasons he's dead today is because of the spiking of the football that the administration had after the death of osama bin laden identifying the s.e.a.l. team, one of our many guests. a great show. powerful. >> 8:00 p.m. on the fox newschannel. thank you. >> don't miss it. thank you. coming up on the show, he was there the day that jfk was shot and killed. the man hit by debris, an extra bullet that was meant for the president, is telling his unbelievable story. and want more money in your paycheck? of course you do. it depends on where you live. the states will that keep more cash in your pocket next. my customers can shop around.

5:16 am
one of nine states to put a zero price on work. as a result, we see in the analysis, nearly $25 billion of taxpayer income net of all transfers moving interest the state. >> wow. what are they doing specifically that's working so well? >> well, for starters, no personal income tax. incredible job growth, income growth, labor participation going up at the same time labor participation is going down, the 35-year low. incredible what they're doing in their economy. >> we heard rick perry talk about that during the election. let's talk about florida. what's going on there? >> florida has the most gain in the last 18 years. $95 billion, $10,000 every minute, moving into florida versus those people moving out. >> and this is because people are moving there? and they -- they don't have a sales tax, as well, or don't have a state income tax. >> no personal income tax, incredible job performance. over 134,000 jobs created just last year. the state of florida cut taxes 24 times there. >> i heard tennessee, a lot of auto companies moving to tennessee. and other big companies moving
5:17 am
there, as well. what's going on in that state? >> tennessee shows us an example of what can be done in the middle of america. a gain of $10 billion in the last 18 years. no personal income tax. repealed inheritance tax recently. they're on a path to attract even more income from states like illinois, california, and michigan. >> i see a bottom line here. i see a common theme. no personal income tax. remarkable that that ends up being one of the big drivers of their economy. >> and we see that across different places and different climates. different areas to retire. >> washington state, not a good place, or a good place? >> washington state gaining $12 billion on the pacific coast. companies likeamazon, microsoft, building big industries there. and a clean, educated work force. >> what -- what state stands out? i know we don't have them on the list. what's the worst state? we're all thinking best over there. what was the worst one? >> the states losing the most actually is right here in new york. the empire state, $68.1 billion lost. a new york minute now costs --
5:18 am
i'm sorry, $7,100. states like california losing big, as well. $45 billion the last 18 years. >> and you can see that in california. i talked to business owners moving into arizona, into nevada, and parts of utah, as well. >> that's right. just next door, nevada, california, two states with very different policies on price on work. families know it's not what you make, it's what you keep. >> wow. remarkable. you want more information on this, go to howmoneywalks.com. travis, great to see you. >> good to see you. coming up on the show, you've seen adults do it, but just how young is too young for mixed martial arts? meet the 7-year-old that's already fighting. and his dad here to defend it. the mayor of trny to -- the mayor of toronto's troubles keeps piling up. caught on camera, drunken tie ride. a big update.

5:23 am
participate? chris manzo and his 7-year-old son, evan, an mma fighter, hire to discuss the risks and benefits of the sport. chris, thanks for joining us this morning. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> it's unusual, obviously takes a ton of commitment. it's admirable, in my view, that way. of course, there are concerns, though, from the outside looking in, that it looks dangerous. is it dangerous? how dangerous is it for kids? >> well, first i'd like to clarify that what they do is -- it's not mma. it's -- it is a mixture of martial arts. there is a -- there are a lot more rules than regular mma. first of all, do not strike to the head. anywhere above the collar bone is illegal to strike. they do what's called panceation which dates back to 360 b.c. it was one of the original olympic games. it's practiced off over and sanctioned by fila.
5:24 am
people love to call it mixed martial art, but 90% of the time it takes place on a map. people ask, can we do this in a cage, and they did. everybody ran with it. as far as the darngs concerned, it's definitely factualliy in more dangerous than wrestling, traditional grappling lightning jujitsu or sparring, sparring, boxing in a gym. >> we're looking at pictures -- i don't know if you can see them on your screen of pancration. evan, that's you. you're the fiercest 7-year-old i've seen. do you like hitting people, or do you worry about getting hit? >> no. >> you don't worry about it? you're not scared about it? >> no. >> huh. do you enjoy it? >> yeah. >> wow. that's -- apparently.
5:25 am
so how big is, you know, the field for this? are there a lot of other 7-year-olds involved? >> there are a lot of kids involved. the thing is, i grew up in traditional martial arts, and to me it's almost like an evolution of martial arts. the kids that train are really good kids. they're not kids that get in trouble. as a matter of fact, if they get in trouble at school, which usually doesn't have anything to do with any kind of violence or anything, when they do get into some trouble at school, their parents come straight to me. you know, parents are different scenarios, but they're martial arts coaches and disciplinarians. i do hand down discipline, pushups or extra exercise and things like that when they're in the gym. it's just a culture of people that -- that believe that mma is
5:26 am
wrong. that's okay. and i understand that these kids doing it. they're kids as young as -- there's kids 4, 5, 6 years old and want to do this. however, we don't let kids unless they can show us a degree of proficiency, i guess is a good word for it. and if they can show us that degree of proficiency, then we'll allow them to go in there and compete. but there's also beginner levels. >> they look proficient from the video. i doubt they're getting bullied in school. chris and evan, thank you for joining us. >> appreciate it. fox news reporting the red cross saying the death toll from the typhoon could be up to more than 1,200 people. we're live with the a limit development. we'll bring them to you in a moment. and a student body president at a christian university makes a shocking admission -- he's an atheist. wait until you hear what the school has to say coming up. be♪ remember when christmas was magical?

month. joining us now on the phone from the philippines is fox news reporter mike cohen. mike, we've watched the numbers go from four it 100 to now 1,200 woeshl deat potential deaths there. what's it like on the ground? >> on the ground, all we're seeing on the ground is just a continuous stream of reports, images, bodies piled up. some video so gruesome we can't show it obviously on television. what we can tell you is that in some places like this city, there were evacuation centers where people thought they were safe and a storm surge 25-feet high, over the school buildings, came in and drowned people literally inside. that is how bad it is. the areas are being inundated by that storm surge that hit, and now the grisly task of
5:32 am
identifying these people. a lot of them, the bodies that they're finding, they don't even know if they're from the area or from a completely different group of islands. on this is how difficult it is for authorities there. >> it sounds like chaos may be the word to describe what's going on. you're in manila, a couple hundred kilometers away from where the epicenter made landfall. communication in and out of that area, how -- are you able to get information like this out of the areas, telephone lines, all that sort of infrastructure gone? >> telephone. power, you name it, it's gone. the airport, it's gone. it came in and ate up the buildings. control towers, radar, everything. the runway is the only thing left. this are people with phones that are communicating out. a department store in the town, people are out of food, they're nervous, scared. they just went in and took everything they could. some of it was strange because, you know, these were
5:33 am
electronics. they didn't really need them but got them anyway. there's looting going on because the police are gone. they're flying in more police officers, flying in troops, doing what they can to secure the area. nobody's trying to hurt anybody. people are trying to grab anything they can in order to survive. >> 1,200 is the estimate. it could if much higher? >> reporter: i believe 1,-200 would be more accurate from what we're seeing of images from news teams able to make it in or out. that would probably be close to it. and from one city, m, this place is six provinces. six island groups as it moves east to west, the pacific to the south china sea across the philippines' central portion. >> thank you very much for your time. good luck out. there you be safe yourself.

5:35 am
the next storm we're talking about will give an indication, this line, that red line, that's the that of haiyan. there it is toward vietnam. move forward in time here, you see the storm to the south of that haiyan pass, potentially bringing another storm. the least case, we'll see more rain brought into the area by tuesday and rain and flooding with that and potentially all sorts of things. >> what a sad story. sounds like it will get a lot sadder. thanks. >> you bet. 35 minutes after the hour. we have other headlines now. this month marks the 50th anniversary of the kennedy assassination. and earlier this morning, we got a chance to talk to a man who was injured by the same gunfire that killed the president. >> i was -- didn't to see the president. i was just innocently stopped in traffic. got out of my car to see what was going on. and i hear the pop of a

5:46 am
is this the kind of thing that happens in the nfl locker room all the time and something else is going on here? is that what you suspect? >> yeah. goes on all the time. you know, even on the -- the collegiate level. you know, some of the racial comments that were made, definitely not called for. that needs to be investigated. but you know, as a grown man, you know, sometimes you have to stick up for yourself. my parents, you know, told me, you don't have to go through physical confrontation. but you know what, talk to the chain of command. talk to your coach. talk to other players. you know, find out how you can be more comfortable in your own locker room. >> okay. you bring up a great point, the chain of command here. was protocol followed? it seems that some are suggesting if you watch espn and others, suggesting that maybe the team went to protect richie incognito rather than try to protect jonathan martin when he raised some of these issues. what do you think about that? >> well, you know, i -- i don't necessarily agree with that. you know, i think the team is going to protect itself. but you know, with that said, you know, richie incognito and
5:47 am
jonathan martin have to be accountable for themselves. jonathan martin definitely could have talked to other players. definitely could have talked to his coach. you know, even at that, you know, talk to your mom and dad. and get, you know, a better understanding of what you should do. and richie definitely, you know, i think he went overboard with some of the comments that he made. but you know, again, at the end of the day, you know, you -- you should be teammates, you should be able to work things out. not go beyond the locker room and become a -- a media fanfare and the hysteria going on now. >> you're plugged in to the miami dolphins community. are we going to hear some other crazy stuff coming out of this? >> you know, i -- i think that, you know, the story is still untold. and -- because there's an investigation that's still going on. so stay tuned to the rest of the story. >> yeah. i think you answered it for me. i want to give you a statement before we go. this is jonathan martin's lawyer. he says this -- jonathan
5:48 am
martin's toughness is not at issue. it's the treatment by teammates. he endured harassment that went far beyond the hazing, well beyond publicized voicemail with the racial epithet. he endured a vicious physical attack by a teammate and daily vulgar comments. what do you say to that? >> well, you know, i think we have to see what the investigation says. you know, i have to ask his lawyer, you know, how many years did he play in the nfl to actually be able to qualify his statements by saying what goes on in a courtroom? how many times did he put on a helmet and actually spend time in an nfl locker room. you know, let the investigation take care of itself. and i think everything will come to light. >> bottom line here, handle hill saying there isn't -- randall hill saying there isn't all there is to say about. that thank you for joining us. >> you bet. coming up, we play at the start of our days on "fox and

5:55 am
boss hasn't let you know if you're going to be off for which holidays or things like that? what are the cancellation fees like that are associated? >> cancellation fees can really get up there, anywhere from $100 to $250. the key is to be flexible this holiday season. whether or not you've booked already, when you're in the actual travel period, fly out on monday the 23rd if you can. we've seen the weekend prior to the holiday is going to be a pri priceyer time. if you can extend your trip a day to maybe new year's eve or coming back on the 28th, being flexible with the destination yous ear traveling to, the airports and the days, all going to help you save this holiday season. >> i'm sure the family will appreciate you staying longer. >> of course. >> courtney, thank you so much. 55 minutes after the hour. a fox news alert now. while you were sleeping, the

6:00 am
bring his action figure in for show and tell, but didn't. his mother got so upset about the reason he left it at home, she vented on the web. and now she's under fire. that mom and son are here to explain themselves. fox and friends hour four starts right now. >> this is the united states marine corps, you're watching fox and friends, erh! welcome to fox and friends. >> hour three. >> it's hour four. >> ding, ding. >> good morning everyone. >> we're going to get right to your news headlines. we start with this fox news alert overnight. a security breach in the seattle, washington, airport. police say a man believed to be on drugs crashed through airport security, then ran away and somehow ended up on an empty american airlines airplane. he was taken into custody after putting up a flight with police officers and tsa agents. he is now facing several charges.
6:01 am
also breaking while you were sleeping, a jury finds a utah doctor guilty of killing his wife. >> we the jury, having reviewed the evidence and testimony in the case find the defendant as to count i murder, guilty. as to count two, obstruction of justice, guilty. >> the family of the victim, michelle macneill there crying out in the courtroom as the guilty verdict is read. taking 11 hours for jurors to convict martin macneill of the drowning death of his wife in a bathtub in 2007. prosecutors argue the defendant knocked his wife out with drugs after cosmetic surgery, then helped her into the bathtub and held her head under water. the motive? a mystery he was seeing on the side. sentencing is scheduled for january. macneill faces life in prison. a grand jury has now indicted 11 bikers including the new york city police detective on charges related to the motorcycle road rage assault case. the indictment says charges
6:02 am
against detective boy check braz zach include gang assault and criminal mischief. police are still looking for more suspects in connection with the attack. we're getting a brand new preview of the new york city skyline here. the speier on top of one world trade center lighting up in red, white and blue for the first time last night. the beacon is packed with nearly 300 modules and can be seen up to 50 miles away. nice and patriotic. >> amazing. i saw it last night. it looks great. now to the other fox news alert. the red cross is estimating the death toll so far from the typhoon in the philippines could be more than 1,200 people. they say that number could rise. estimates say a thousand people have been killed in one town alone. >> the typhoon was one of the strongest storms on record slamming into the islands with sustained winds reaching 195 miles an hour. joining us on the phone from the philippines is fox news reporter
6:03 am
mike cohen. nice to have you back with us at the top of the hour. what are the latest reports coming into to you in manila? >> reporter: at this point in time, they're saying the philippine red cross has their estimate of 1200 they fear are dead. they believe the situation is dire. there is an immediate need for communication. we do know that allied countries of the philippines like the united states do have a military assessment team in from the air base, they're on the ground and trying to help do what they can along with the philippine military and, of course, local authorities. they're trying to recover, also, people alive who may be trapped in some of these buildings that have collapsed because of the storm surge and the winds. the wind was the killer here. it is what caused the speed, a kilometer in, 3/4 mile inland.
6:04 am
it was like a tsunami just ripping into that city. >> mike, you're telling us, too, that some of the video that we have in house we can't even show because it's so gruesome. so we can only imagine what communication is even like there at the moment. how are rescue teams even communicating with one another to try to reach these people? >> they're using basically walkie-talkies, small hand-held radios to communicate. that's only good for a few miles. you're talking about a relatively wide area, several cities. we're talking large towns by american standards, maybe in the hundreds of thousands in population. and many of these areas badly affected, badly hit by the storm, all lines down. you won't find a power line or a telephone line or a cell phone site that's still functioning in many of these places. >> we've got rick here who has
6:05 am
been following this carefully. >> i also wanted to ask, a lot of the information and the fatality numbers potentially coming from the town tacloban. any word coming from those smaller towns and the other outlying areas? >> you've got all the areas along the islands. to an older generation of americans, this is where macarthur returned to. this is a very famous part of american history. after d-day this was the largest military landing in world war ii. a lot of americans are very familiar with this area. there are a lot of american citizens who actually live there as well. you've got these outer areas, many people getting through anyway they can, twitter, social media, e-mailing somehow. a lot of people using sat phones and satellite internet access to get the information out. in some cases they're actually
6:06 am
physically bringing notes on little fishing boats to the next town that has a cell site that works and relaying information. the philippine government has flown in some initial satellite communications equipment so people are being able to talk from tacloban city hall. that's about it. >> thank you very much for that information. incredible information. you're going into nighttime now and there's many people hoping to work on the recovery and rescue efforts. this is a look at the storm as it moved right through this area. tacloban is the biggest city in the area, the capital of that province, about 200,000 people living there, they were on the wrong side of the storm with the strongest winds around 195 miles an hour, incredible storm surge going on as well. this storm continues to pull to the east. we're not done with it. the philippines is done with it. now it's taking aim at vietnam. we're watching a certain
6:07 am
landfall across the vietnam coast. but i think it's going to hug the coastline. that means a lot of areas along the coast being ripped up on the vietnam coastline and a lot of very heavy rain there, potentially some 20 inches of rain. moreland slide for vietnam. guys, as we've been saying, the threat possibly also models indicating another storm coming this week for the philippines. guys. >> sad. thank you, rick. the president is continuing to try to convince americans that obama compare is a good idea, but it looks at this point like they remain profoundly uncon vinced. we've got a new gallup poll on who is signing up. of all uninsured adults in america, this is the group for which obama care was created, only 18% have signed up. >> among the 18%, the young people are one out of every five visitors at the state and federal level.
6:08 am
most of the people they need to be signing up are not which are the younger folks. only five obama care sign-ups in washington, d.c. -- >> by, by the way, the most democratic city in united states. 94% for obama in '08, almost that number in '12. these are people who love obama and they're not signing up. >> five people there. >> how about this? blue cross blue shield, the largest insurance provider in my home state of north carolina, they're having some issues, too. we can tell you it's even worse in north carolina than in d.c. only one person has signed up. they haven't even quite been able to enroll so they haven't paid yet. >> we had governor huckabee on the show earlier this morning to talk about some of these numbers. the president apologizing this week for some of it, but he says they should have seen this coming a long time ago. listen. >> he can't say we had no idea because they had a good idea. mike kinsey, the senator from wyoming back in 2010, three years ago, predicted these numbers were going to be astronomic
6:09 am
astronomical, there would be tens of millions of americans. ultimately there would be no private individual health care market because of the way obama care is structured. frankly, i think a lot of us were saying four years ago, common sense says you can't add 30 million sick people into a system, no pre-existing condition exclusions, no annual or lifetime benefits and somehow make it less expensive. >> okay. so the midterm election is a year from this week and this will be the defining issue. you'll see democratic incumbent after democrat incumbent all of whom voting for this, claiming they had no idea and they did. >> the president talked about the economy, went to new orleans and talked about the growth and the economy. he got a better-than-expected jobs report on the day he was standing there, although shrinking job force. he said this could have been much, much better if those other guys didn't stall the recovery. listen. >> we learned yesterday that over the summer our economy grew
6:10 am
at its fastest pace in a year. that's the good news. the bad news is that the very day the economic quarter ended, some folks in washington decided to shut down the government and threat ended to default on american's obligations for the first time in more than 200 years. it's like the gears of our economy, every time they're just about to take off, suddenly somebody taps the brakes and says not so fast. >> the evil republicans doing that. we can hear the spin all the way here in new york city from new orleans where he was, trying to capitalize on the momentum that the democrats had really coming out of the shutdown because republicans had to shoulder so much of the blame for that. but really everybody -- you can't ignore the elephant in the room which is obama care, the debacle of the roll-out of the website, not just that, it's a problem of the program as a whole that was not sold to us the way that we're taking it in. >> imagine that. the most powerful man in the world playing the vic tick.
6:11 am
the factories aren't working because trotsky sabotaged them. it would have worked. it would have worked, but unpatriotic saboteurs. take some responsibility for your economy. you've been president for five years. >> he's still got a few more years he can still point the fingers back a couple years. when does that wear off? >> by the way, this is the only morning show where you'll get a trotsky reference. >> sorry. we've been talking about the president saying he's sorry. but anna colter says that wasn't an apology at all. she's here next. forget the marriage rules you've been told to follow. the ones that will actually make your love life a lot better, if you break these rules. we want to hear from you. weigh in on facebook and twitter. check us out.

there's something that works differently than over-the-counter remedies. prescription tamiflu attacks the flu virus at its source. so call your doctor right away. tamiflu treats the flu in people 2 weeks and older whose flu symptoms started within the last two days. before taking tamiflu tell your doctor if you're pregnant, nursing, have serious health conditions, or take other medicines. if you develop an allergic reaction, a severe rash, or signs of unusual behavior, stop taking tamiflu and call your doctor immediately. children and adolescents in particular may be at an increased risk of seizures, confusion or abnormal behavior. the most common side effects are mild to moderate nausea and vomiting. so don't wait. attack the flu virus at its source. ask your doctor about tamiflu, prescription for flu.
6:15 am
president obama apologized this week or appeared to for his botched obama care rollout. >> i am sorry that they are finding themselves in this situation based on assurances they got from me. we've got to work hard to make sure that they know we hear them and that we're going to do everything we can. >> do you buy it? was the president's apology me. joining us the author of "never trust a lab riberal over 3." do you buy the apology an ann
6:16 am
coult coulter? >> he's acting as if he had nothing to do with the fact that he had nothing to do with people being thrown off their insurance. it's like bernie madoff saying, wow, i'm sorry people's investments went down based on assurances from me. no, you did it to them. your obama care is what threw people off insurance. i knew it. you knew it, tucker. people complained about the bill itself trying to be nearly 2,000 pages long. we knew that most of the bill would come out in regulations written by that arrogant and smug kathleen sebelius. there are now something like 15,000 pages of regulations. all of the hoo-ha over sandra burke and her birth control, i think we knew birth control and abortions would be covered. they prevented illegal immigrants from getting obama
6:17 am
kaefrmt of course insurance was going to go up. you'd be required to cover things that no normal person would want to insure against so people would be thrown off their plans. as we know from the federal register, the hhs knew in 2010 and predicted about 93 million americans would be thrown off their current insurance plans, the ones they shopped for, the ones they liked, the ones they're beginning to be thrown off now. >> exactly. there was with moment -- every once in a while you see a piece of tape that reveals the truth about something. here is the president explaining how he got burned in obama care. watch this. >> having said that, given that i've been burned already with a website -- more importantly the american people have been burned by a website that has been dysfunctional. >> i've been burned, me, me, me. >> it was really an apology to himself, not to us because he was the one who got hurt here
6:18 am
and no one is more frustrated than he is. just the arrogance of these people. i think obama and the people around him thought he would get away with it the same way he got away with benghazi, the same way he got away with the irs being used to harass obama's political enemies. he has been able to count on what i call the non-fox media until now to treat him like some cult figure. i don't think it's going to work this time because people are going -- 93 million americans roughly are going to continue to see their premiums go through the roof and be thrown off their insurance for the next couple of years. how do you stop people from noticing that? >> it's very noticeable. you're going into the lion's den this weekend, doing a book signing at university of southern california. good luck, ann. ann coulter. >> thanks for mentioning it. "the star-spangled banner"

embraces in sports, whether it tease singing of the war anthem before every game, going to get a hot dog and signing up for the army at the same time, the nfl embracing the mythology of the patil man story. it's been going on since it was played in the world series back in 1917. it's time for people to back away. >> that's kevin blackstone, likening our national anthem to a war anthem. joining us for reaction is former army lieutenant and linebacker for the detroit lions, kevin campbell. you sit from a unique spot as a former service member and former football player. when you hear words like that, do you agree at all or do you think, you know what, this is something that unites us? >> i don't agree with the term used here, war anthem. here you are talking about a national anthem. it takes us back to the roots of who we are as a country t war of
6:24 am
1812, the battle of baltimore. if that battle wasn't won, historians were saying we wouldn't be speaking english today. so to say it's just a mere war anthem does a great injustice. it's so much more than that. like you said, it you nighunite your race, your background, your color, your religion. this allows us to come together as one people as one nation. it allows us to really express who we are, where we come from and where we are going as america. >> it reminds us, you look around at the players' faces during the national anthem, the people standing around the stands, we take off our hat, put our hand over our heart, you see the look on paem's faces, not only on the field but off the field. it does unite us before you do battle on the field, right? >> absolutely. it also serves to inspire us. just like in the war of 1812, the american forces were facing insurmountable odds. we as a nation face challenges
6:25 am
every day. we face terrorist acts, we face circumstances, and this national anthem serves to inspire us as americans. right after the boston marathon bombings, i think it was at a hockey game, if you hear that national anthem, you can go back and listen to the anthem sung in that arena that night, if you weren't crying or didn't have goose bumps, check your pulse. you might not be breathing really. it serves to inspire us. it allows us and reminds us that we are one nation and, yes, we are still under god. >> kaleb, this is something that blackistone stands by. it's not the first time he attacked the national anthem. back in 20121 he said but if our lawmakers don't sing it every day to begin the country's business, spectators of a mere sporting' vechbt shouldn't be be forced to sit through it either, especially during the time we are living through right now. is that how you've ever felt?
6:26 am
wouldn't you start to hear the notes of the song being played, are you fighting to not get up fast enough? >> right, right. there's two points he makes. if the lawmakers don't start our days -- you bring up a good point. maybe our lawmakers should start the day with singing the national anthem. maybe we should make adjustments there. furthermore, also, when they say we have to sit through it, i don't know how about you, but whenever i'm getting ready to sing the national anthem, i can't get on my feet fast enough. i'm snapping to attention right away to sing the national anthem. that really the a symbol of who we are as america, who we are as a people and who we are as the greatest democracy in the world. >> kaleb campbell retired u.s. army lieutenant and former linebacker with the detroit lions. thank you for joining us, we appreciate it. >> thank you for having me, thank you. 26 minutes after the hour.
