5:00 pm
palin. go to greta wire.com to see that part of the interview. we'll see you all again tomorrow night right here at 7:00 p.m. eastern. up next, the o'reilly factor. the o'reilly factor is on. tonight -- >> that's on me. where he fumbled the rollout. >> the president surrenders. and will make adjustments in obama care that he did not want to make. we'll have full analysis with megan kelly. >> you and your colleagues were constantly criticizing trying to underif you sa und und underfund it. >> one of the architects being a could you seeing fox news p is you vesub 1rer9inverting the ne. also tonight, do women make worse boxes than men?
5:01 pm
caution. you are about to enter the no spin zone. the factor begins right now. >> thanks for watching tonight. the president capitulates. speaking at the white house, mr. obama once again said that the computer problems and other chaos surrounding obama care are his responsibility. >> that's on me. i mean, we fumbled the rollout on this health care law. there are a whole bunch of things about it that are working really well. which people didn't notice. because they weren't controversial. we always knew that these marketplaces creating a place where people can shop and
5:02 pm
through competition get a better deal for the health insurance that their families need. we always knew that that was going to be complicated. >> if you always knew, why didn't you tell we the people who had no idea? instead, the introduction of obama care was sold for 3 1/2 years as a making any of septembmaking any of september government program with little down side. while the president continued to praise the overall law, he did address the overselling. >> we respect the pledge i made that if you like your plan, you can keep it. i think and i've said in interviews that there is no doubt that the way i put that forward unequivocally ended up not being accurate. it was not because of my intention not to deliver on that
5:03 pm
commitment and that promise. we put a grandfather clause into the law. but it was insufficient. >> true. but for weeks, that was not acknowledged by you, mr. president. and only when powerful senators in your own party began ha introduction legislation to deal with health insurance problems did you respond. so in order to stop that legislation cold, the president is now saying this. >> insurers can extend current plans into 2014 and americans whose plans have been canceled can reenroll in the same kind of plan. >> and that of course will cause especially more chaos. let me see a show of hands. how many of you believe reenrolling in a canceled health insurance plan will be a fun adventure? anyone? buehler? going forward mr. obama is anticipating many more problems.
5:04 pm
that was evidence wht when he s this. >> i said from the beginning i'm willing to work with democrats and republicans to fix problems as they a rise. in is an this is an example p we can always make the law work better. i will not accept proposals that are just another brazen attempt to undermine the overall law. >> that was a signal to republicans that the president will veto any attempt to repeal obama care. no matter what happens, no matter how many problems develop, true believers in afford able health care law like the president mwill stand by it. it's the greater good proposition that even if obama care is screwed up beyond belief, it's better for americans than what was there. >> i'm not a perfect man and i will not be a perfect president. but i'll wake up every single day working as hard as i can on behalf of americans out there from every walk of life who are
5:05 pm
working hard meeting their responsibilities but sometimes are struggling because the way the system works isn't giving them a fair shot. and that pledge i haven't broken. >> well, the olded adage is careful what you wish for. all the king's horses and all the king's men might not be able to put obama care back together again. because it goes against free market principles. but more forptl limportantly, i depends on an efficient democracy to implement it. and in this case there isn't an efficient government bureaucr y bureaucracy. the question is doctor donwhy d intelligent people like the guy who designed obama care understand that. >> it's not the same as the insurance company saying you are canceled and now you're on your
5:06 pm
own. did you foresee that happening? >> that is absolutely -- have canceled because -- >> that's in the answer. >> th you are not answering. >> they think the exchange is rising. >> sir, you're not answering. their business decision says the individual market is dying, we'll go to the exchange. >> so when the president said if you like your plan, you can keep it period, you believe he genuinely believed that in his mind and that he -- >> the affordable -- whether yo irrelevant. >> i think i know my viewers and i think they think this is relevant. >> summing up, we can expect the president and his supporters like dr. emanuel to compromise on some small things. but not the overall obama care program which they will defend forever. to admit it's not good for the
5:07 pm
country would be to admit that big country is not good. therefore, liberalism is not good. and that's what this is all about. next on the rundown, very controversial megan will be here. i'm nervous. and later men versus women bosses. we're coming right back.

5:10 pm
continuing with our lead story, is obama care on the ropes. as we said last night, one of the architects of the health care law and megan got into it. >> this was not an environment which was hospitable to setting up the exchanges. you and your colleagues were constantly criticizing trying to underfund it and trying to make sure it didn't work. >> a lot of that krcriticism proved true.
5:11 pm
>> a self-fulfilling prophecy. had anything to do with the roll out. but listen -- >> you were constantly attacking the law and you were trying to make it underfunded. >> okay. it was all our fault. >> here she is again. how on earth could fox news underfund anything? >> some how we messed up healthcare.gov, too. not once, but twice. >> dr. emanuel who is the brother of rahm emanuel and ari emanuel, he says we underfunded it. >> he was sort of going off the rails at that point. but this is my takeaway from that section of the interview. this is one of the cheap architects of this law. and raefther than just coming
5:12 pm
clean, this is how it went down architects of this law. and rather than just coming clean, this is how it went down architects of this law. and rather than just coming clean, this is how it went down, there w it was blaming someone else including fox. there was a recent poll that said fox news is the most trusted source when it costs to information on the health care law. in the face of that, he says it's all fox news' fault. >> and i told you why, because it's not about obama care, it's about liberalism in general. this is his signature deal. but this doctor, to be fair to him, he didn't have anything to do with the rollout of the computer or anything. he's the big picture let's give health care to everybody guy. >> that's right. and he did say that he does believe they should have appointed a ceo to oversee health care and they didn't do it. >> yes, they did. kathleen sebelius. >> she's not the ceo. it's basically the medicare people running this.
5:13 pm
she has the title and that's it. they didn't have an actual executive. from the president on down, they didn't have a ceo of a major piece of legislation that was remaking one-sixth of the u.s. economy. and a guy named david cutler who was the co-architect, harvard professor, he wrote them a written letter in may of 2010 saying you don't have the team in place to execute this. it's going to fail. >> you know how the government works, correct? the government works by departments. everything in the bureaucracy is headed by a department. so the treasury department handles this, justice department hams that, the defense handles this. health and human services handle obama care because that's health. ceo is kathleen sebelius. no, stop, kelly. >> no, she stdoesn't know anythg about the website. why didn't he find somebody who does? >> that's the key. sebelius was in place. she couldn't do the job. absolutely. to this day, she has no clue
5:14 pm
about any of this. however, she's still there, right, with no assistants coming into sort all this out. >> let me make another point about ms. sebelius. she of course knew nothing about websites and that was completely bungled. but more than that, she is the one who put those regulations in place in june of 2010 that effectively eliminated the grandfathering the president was so relying upon. and for the president to come out today and say those democrats, it wasn't their fault, it's all on me because i did say they could keep their plans if they wanted to and they believed my promise is not true. it's in the true. because sebelius passed those regulations on her own in june of 2010. republican mike enzi said this will gut the whole gragrandfathg
5:15 pm
clause and everybody voted against him. >> you know i'm always right. sebelius and obama never had a conversation about anything. would you submit that is -- >> certainly seems that way. >> so they don't talk about anything because president obama is bored with that. doesn't want to do that. president obama didn't read the law. he doesn't have anybody in the white house who will tell him anything contrary. all his guys are like martin van buren to andrew jackson. that's right, general, you're a genius, general. that's how the word came into the english language. okay. everything jack so that said, he went, yes, yes, yes. that's what's going on. president obama when he gets up there and says you know what, i thought it was this or i didn't know that and i thought -- he thought it about that. >> but it's not good enough. >> of course not. that goes to incompetence. >> am i the expert?
5:16 pm
of course not but that's why i have a chief operating officer and you talk to those people who have the expertise. >> he dpts taidn't talk to anyo. >> apparently not. >> that's what i want the audience to understand. when he goes, well, i thought -- he thought because he didn't care enough. >> he had an obligation to find out. >> and ezekiel is the same way. these are big picture guys. pie in the sky guys. they're not computer guys. so that's how it came down. inefficient government. >> let me tell you, i know you talked about the proposed fix. there are a lot of problems with this proposed fix that they're fall back on. p. >> i just said that. >> and one of the main one, emanuel admitted last night that they were counting on those people in the individual insurance markets to move over the exchanges. and now the president has just given them at least a one year pass not to do that. and so the 7 million they needed
5:17 pm
on the exchanges is looking worse than ever and if that happens, premiums sky rocket, exchanges could collapse. >> i have to mention this further. they don't care about running up debt. >> i'm talking about the implosion of obama care. people care about that. >> but they will fund obama care even if they don't have the money. they will keep it up. they will do whatever they have to. >> i'm telling you a serious question needs to be answered tonight and we'll do it on the show tonight about whether the president just effectively ended his own law. >> kelly is smarter than me in the law. she's a lawyer. >> he'll give me that one little area. >> just one. wie we'll hold miss megan over against her will because he want her to weigh in on two important supreme court cases. will women worse bosses than men? and whether boys should be allowed to play football.
5:18 pm

5:21 pm
joining with now is medicga kelly. tell me about the supreme court case in iowa. >> the guy at the time tdealt t the person who bought the drugs tied. and he was brought up on charges of causing the man's death.dtie. and he was brought up on charges of causing the man's death.ied. and he was brought up on charges of causing the man's death. he wanted a jury instruction that he would not be found guilty if the heroin was just one of many things that led to his death. he was going on a bender. and he said if it was just a contributing cause, i shouldn't be found guilty. and the judge said, no, i'm not
5:22 pm
instructing this. if it was just one of manycause and the jury said he's guilty and now he's appealing. >> and he got 20 years. liberals in america, many of them say dealing heroin, meth, hard drugs, not a violent crime. there is always an excuse for them. i'm totally the opposite and i think the supreme court is very, very important. if you sell a substance, illegal substance, and that person dies, you the seller are responsible. you know the new york times and everybody else is nonviolent, nonviolent, oh, no. >> it's heroin. >> but i don't know if the supreme court -- >> it's not like codeine. >> i don't know if the supreme court will uphold it. you'll have at least four that won't. >> i agree with you. but they tend to be tough on crime. >> it will be 5-4. i don't see kennedy going over it. okay. and then there is another case in oklahoma, very, very
5:23 pm
controversial, where the state government there wants women to have ultra sounds before they abort a fetus. and that's causing all kinds of problems.sounds before they abort a fetus. and that's causing all kinds of problems. they calls them the pro-choice industry, but they're not. they're pro abortion. they wants a many abortions legal as they can get. so where is this? >> without signing on to that characterization -- >> you'll argue with that? >> yeah, i am. >> you're going to argue with planned parenthood -- >> i know people who are pro-choice who don't -- >> i talked about the people bringing the suits. they want as many abortions as they can get in any circumstance. that's pro abortion group. this is the group that brought this suit against oklahoma. >> this of shem some of them do. the law required ultrasound for any abortion and required the doctor to read aloud what they had seen, heartbeat and so on. oklahoma supreme court found
5:24 pm
that was too burdensome. anti-abortion law or one that places restrictions can't be unduly burdensome on the mother. they felt this was. a similar law was upheld in texas. so now one has been struck down in oklahoma. so it's unclear whether injure s injurerous brew tense [ injuries pru deps is going. t want to be reminded -- >> the supreme court decided what in oklahoma? >> if they take a case, they will decide whether this is unduly burdensome on women under planned parenthood versus casey which is the case that said you can place restrictions on abortion, but they can't be untuu unduly burdsomirdsome.
5:25 pm
>> so the state of oklahoma is challenging the supreme court. >> they believe the highest court made the wrong -- i think the only two abortion cases that they have agreed to take so far, they don't like to take abortion cases. >> no, they don't. >> when they do the landmark cases, they have to make big sweeping judgments. right now oklahoma can't do this. >> but texas can. >> it's a state's rights issue according to a lot of people. >> should the decision be made at the federal level? >> we'll see. >> if they boot it back and don't take it, that means that the federal intruded on the state. but just one state. doesn't make any sense. >> the question is does the u.s. constitution prohibit this law.
5:26 pm
>> no. >> if the u.s. supreme court doesn't want to weigh in on it, it becomes a state's rights issue. >> all right. heg megan kelly, watch it after the factor. next, outrage from us pam ca obama care ads promoting promiscuity. and miss laura.

weekend review tonight, advertising controversy over obama care. take a look at a young woman holding a packet of birth control pills standing next to a young man with his shirt untucked. the text reads, omg, he's hot. let's hope he's as easy to gets a this birth control. my health insurance covers the bill which means all i have to worry about is getting him between the covers. i got insurance. now you can, too. thanks obama care. really? joining us now from washington to reagent, miss laura ingram. first of all, who paid for that ad? >> they say it only cost $5,000 because it just went online and it wasn't television or radio advertising. but this group called progress now and this other group called cchi, which is colorado health initiative and the two progressive organizations that do a lot of social media and
5:40 pm
their goals are to thwart the right wing agenda in colorado and to offer a progressive counterpoint when it comes to all media relations on policy issues. so that's their goal. if that was your daughter, wouldn't you be so proud? she goes to college, graduates after four years and her sfifir job is to be the obama care model in colorado. >> i think it's a subversive thing designed to get on the o'reilly factor. as you said, they it does open f should americans be paying for other people's birth control. the answer of course not. if people want to be generous, they can donate to planned parent hood. there are lots of clinics that distribute these things free.ho. there are lots of clinics that distribute these things free. and the message of promiscuity, it's like, okay, here we go and -- >> all we have to do is do a
5:41 pm
litmus test. is this something -- even though this isn't the federal exchange, this is the colorado exchange, but i wonder what president obama would think about this. >> he wouldn't like it. >> he probably w50ouldn't like s daughter behaving in this fashion. but it's not just about the old war on women theme. this is humiliating for liberal women, right? now we're supposed to believe that if you like obama care, if you'll take advantage of obama care, then i guess you're willing to hop into bed with any guy who -- >> let be being's be accurate. that's a cardboard cutout of ryan gosling. to doesn so doesn't make for good conversation. >> it's a war on women's logic.
5:42 pm
>> let's talk about the war on women thing because i think we'll see this with the hillary clinton deal. do you think the war on women will be one of her main themes and be made fun muof her pant st or whatever? so i think that the war on women will take a very, very big position in the presidential race in 2016. do you agree? >> i think they will try to revive it. it's really all they have. the record is terrible. the economy is not growing. jobs aren't there. obama care is a disaster. climate change didn't really go anywhere. the whole administration lost credibility. they will probably lose senate seats, probably lose house seats in 2014. we'll see. but so what else do they have. they can't really argue liberal policies work because t not working. so they will go back to the of republicans. when you look at what republicans were saying before obama care passed, we were
5:43 pm
saying there would be doctor short ams, th age shortages, that the government isn't capable, that it inhi-hin the doctor/patient relationship. all of it has come true. they have tried to demonize the republicans who made that point. when in fact we thought it wouldn't work. the demonizing only goes so far and i think the war on women's jobs, the war on women's common sense, the war on women's retirement, i'd turn that away if i were the republicans on the democrats on every issue that they try to hit us on and say the real war has been on the prosperity of women and small businesses in the united states. and that's the war you you carried out. >> you could make that point, but you have to understand that this is going to be nasty to the nth degree. it's not only a war on women, there will be a war on the poor because if you want to cut back on entitlement spending, you'll have a war on them. a war on hispanics.
5:44 pm
>> they made life worse for hispanics. >> you're talk about analyzing facts. that won't happen. it will be a war on black people, war on hispanics, war on poor, war on women. >> the latest polls out are showing that there is a shift going on. we'll see if it lasts. but there is a shift going on. the anxiety level in the american public right now in that vast middle class and lower middle class is really at an all-time high. and i think it will be hard for hillary clinton who also said you can keep your plan if you like it back in '07 for hillary to try to distance herself from all of this. i think it will be very hard. >> miss laura ingram, everybody. should american boys play football? and are women worse bosses than men? hide the kids. i'm angela, and i didn't think i could quit smoking but chantix helped me do it. i told my doctor i think i'm... i'm ready.

back of the book time. what the heck just happened? new survey says americans prefer a male boss over a female boss by 35% to 23%. 41% don't care. back in 1953 when the question was first asked, 66% of americans wanted a male boss, just 5% preferred working for a woman. here now to explain all of this, the brains behind the imus operation. all right. did you ever work for a woman? >> i just question the whole survey. it's so head hetero sexist. we're so bogged down in categories, it makes me sick. >> maybe you didn't hear me.
5:49 pm
tougher work for a woman? >> i would say my wife, yes. but can i make the point women prefer male bosses more than men do. that's the interesting part of this survey. which means that is the politically incorrect part of the glass ceiling. some of the women are responsible for it. >> did you ever work for a woman? >> i have worked for a female boss, yes. and in my experience, and my research, and i took a psychology class in college, so i know what i'm talking about, there are a couple of factors. age andattractiveness. you want someone older, paternal, maybe maternal. you don't want someone your age bossing you around. or some younger dude, sonott overachiever. you don't want sexual tension. if i want to get bossed away and slapped around by a woman, i'll get a leather mask and go see a dominatrix or go home to my
5:50 pm
wife. >> let me just stop you. all of this might not be good in the job interview. you see, you might just want to -- so i'm going to distill it down. you've worked for a woman and has mixed feelings about it. >> iit. >> i want an old, ugly dooly du >> everyone knows about concussions, bad behavior. a very good sports writer said this. go. >> now the view that's emerged from the dolphins locker room goes beyond that and suggests that modern football is so violent even thuggish that it can damage your soul as well as your brain. how many more parents will keep their sons out of the football locker room under the assumption that there are better ways to learn to be manly? >> okay. i have to confess to you guys that when i watched the jets
5:51 pm
