blessed. enjoy it. huckabee joins us in minutes. let's look at the lights on sixth avenue and get you in the mood for christmas. tonight on huckabee, in 2010 the president dismissed his recommendation for catastrophic insurance. >> would you be satisfied if every member of congress had catastrophic care. >> i think we would. >> fast forward to 2013. >> it makes sense as we are transferring to a system in which insurance standards are higher, that we also address folks who get caught in that transition and there are unintended consequences. >> the wyoming senator's reaction. and christmas is a time for giving. he is giving those who can't afford to, a chance to get home for the holidays. plus your tweets on obamacare and the governor's take on the duck dynasty

controversy. ladies and gentlemen, governor mike huckabee. [ applause ] >> thank you. thank you very much. we have a great audience here in new york. and we want to say welcome to huckabee from the fox news studios in new york city. now do you remember when america was a free country? religious liberty, so foundational to our nation's origin, that faith was embedded in the first amendment in our bill of rights. the government is forbidden to prefer or prohibit an expression of religion. religion is free to be expressed but government has never been free to enfringe. in recent days a small but vocal and military group of same-sex marriage advocates have forced industry and government to go beyond tolerating homosexuality

but to approve it. i'm told to shut up advocating for traditional marriage, but those who press activism for same-sex marriage, wedding caterers and photographs are being forced to serve sale weddings even if it violates the religious convictions of the provider. a&e found a successful formula that took this from arts and entertainment. reality shows have turned it into a cash cow but none of the shows have rockitied to the stratosphere of green and gold like the most popular show ever, duck dynasty. elites have never understood the popularity in fly-over country but for those of us that live in that part of america, duck dynasty wasn't about the beards or the ducks, but the strongly

knit sense of family. their can -- christian belief is too real for reality. and they are happy, happy, happy. they are not straight laced snobs, but they laugh, they pay and they pray. they reflect a family that loves each other and they also believe a view of marriage that has been the standard for all of human history and the norm for christianity, judiasm and islam. a&e tossed phil robertson off tv because he believed what he said and he said what he believed. a&e is insulting and snobbing the millions of americans who hold the same view, expressed in less graphic terms. i doubt the gray rights groups watch duck dynasty. they used to lobby for tolerance and now they are lobbying for

intolerance. it is not as high as jersey shore, temptation island and cheaters. it is okay for shows to glorify teen sex and promiscuity, but if shun should reflect his christian face, then god him him because the network won't. [ applause ] >> so just who did the suits at a&e think those millions were who watch duck dynasty? muslims aren't criticized, ostracized or banned from the public square and their views are far more harsh. most christians i know, including me, are respectful and tolerant of those who are homosexual and engage in friendship with, employment with and with others that are openly gay. i can accept anybody. but i shouldn't be forced to em braise a -- embrace a view of

faith, my friends think i'm a religious net in believing in the bible and the resurrection of jesus christ. so are they soin secure thatter -- soin secure of tolerating anyone who doesn't agree with them. will we one day be told that the government what we can and can't say or can and cant believe. it started in the market place. and it ends when it is enforced by the state. and folks, we're getting close. we're getting close. [ applause ] >> i hope you'll send me a message by way of hit twit -- twitter. you can tweet me at huckabee show. and speaking of tweets, last week we talked about the many different ways the obama administration is trying to get young people to sign up for obamacare. one advocacy group sent out a picture of the president holding up a sign that said get covered because -- and then written in

the blank space it says because nobody should go broke just because they get sick. now many on the internet photo shopped the photo and changed the message like this one. it says get covered because obama care canceled the plan you like. so last week we asked you to fill in the blank and then to tweet us as to your reasons why to get covered. by the way, we received thousands of tweets. in fact, we were the fifth most tweeted television show in all of america last saturday. so we want to give you an example of just what we got from you our viewers. here is one from stephanie. is says get covered because the nsa thinks that mole looks a little suspicious. here is one from texan for bush, it says get covered because he knows if you've been naughty or nice. obama, not santa. and from phil, get covered because obama said you shouldn't go broke if you get sick, go broke paying for obama care

instead. and this one from greg. get covered because i lied and you fell for it, you stupid suckers. at least it got me re-elected. and here is one from joseph who treated, get covered because my second term is going to make you sick. and then terry writes, he says get covered because why waste you will -- all of the money it took to destroy our health care system. and from martell, get covered because you can combine your irs audit and physical examination into one great experience. [ applause ] >> well this week obama announced that americans with insurance plans that were canceled, can opt for catastrophic coverage in 2014. that is sending the insurance industry scrambling because there is only a few days left before 2014. but at the white house health summit which was back in

february of 2010, the president laughed off some suggestions by wyoming senator john berasso. he suggested that kata strovic insurance was viable. i spoke to the senator earlier and ask him if he feels vindicated by the president's change of heart. >> well he came out with this late-night kind of announcement to try to hide it from the press, that one again -- that once again he is changing the health care law. i think the catastrophic coverage is the right approach for a number of people. it is helpful. the president said it was awful but now he is admitting that due to the hardships presented because of the health care law, that now it is okay to have catastrophic care. it is the kind of thing that actually helps people avoid bankruptcy, helps people avoid the loss of their house or a kid having to quit school because of some terrible health emergency. so what the paparazzi was been the president was arguing with the republicans four years ago,

in the last week he's embraced them. >> and even a few weeks ago he was calling this type of policy, junk insurance. wasn't adequate and didn't fully take care of people's needs. it is hard to understand what obama care is going to be, because it changes every week, depending on the political circumstances the president finds himself in. does that give republicans a little bit more ammunition going into 2014 to push for serious changes in the structure for obamacare. >> as a doctor, i want to make sure that people can find quality, affordable health care from a doctor they cluz. and i think the president's plan and law just makes it worse. the president in his press conference this week seemed to think everything was going fine except for the website. but you know, governor, the website is just the tip of the iceberg. people are seeing they've had their policies canceled --

premiums are going up, higher copays and you can't keep your doctor even if you would like them and then the issues of computer fraud and identity theft. >> one of the problems the president keep changing the rules as to when implementation is going to happen, the latest is he's pushed off on the insurance companies that people can enroll as late as the 31st. but the insurance companies have to enroll them in a amount of hours, not the weeks. and your colleague from wyoming and tennessee have introduced legislation that would force the administration to follow their own law. tell us about what it would do and why it is important to make sure they live within what they said they wanted? >> well this is consequential legislation, it is called the premium disclosure act. because the president now wants people to not know what their insurance will cost in 2015, mike, until after the elections. he is un lateral said rather

than the october 15th date when people would sign up and know what things will cost them next year, he's pushed it back, instead of two weeks before the election, to two weeks after the election. and with our legislation, we say not good enough, mr. president. october 15th is the date and people need to know by september 15th what the premiums will be the following year so they can make plans and budget and know what the costs are going to be. the president continues to try to mislead the american people and this legislation tries to prevent that. >> 67% of americans say the whole thing should be delayed but if there is another delay that is just arbitrary, doesn't that make it even more difficult for insurance companies to implement the plan? they don't know how many customers they will have and how to pred the -- spread the cost and that would see to me as catastrophic as the catastrophic nature of the website, if this were to happen? >> and it is what is happening. i think we're seeing, as the people that are going to the

website, 60 or 70 times to sign up, where clearly the sicker people who need and want insurance immediately, that leads to what to me is an insurance death spiral with only the sick folks signing up. so then the cost will go higher and higher and i think that the president is going to then try to unilaterally bail out insurance companies with the taxpayers' paying for it. but i'm calling to actually remove the entire industry mandate, the president unilaterallydy it with the employer mandate, delaid that -- delayed that for a year. the individual mandate is the most unpopular part of the law where the government says you have to buy a product and it is a government approved product that for many people is a product that people don't need or don't want and will never use and can't afford. and you talk about these junk policies, at least the way the president described them, so we have a rancher in newcastle, wyoming, and she got a

cancelation notice, governor, because she didn't have maternity coverage. she's already have a hysterectomy and she's not going to have any babies. but her policy was good enough for her and her family but not good enough for the president of the united states and so it was canceled and you know that is wrong. >> senator i appreciate it very much. and i'm delighted to know that i too will have maternity coverage. i am fully covered if i have a baby. merry christmas to you and your family. >> merry christmas to you. thank you, governor. our war heroes are sometimes not shown at precious -- appreciation they deserve. like when the retirees lost benefits with this budget. coming up, saying thanks to those who serve. that is next. thanks to

the military warrior support foundation awards montgomerys to those who have unique circumstances due to their injuries while serving the country. since 2007 this foundation has awarded 538 homes to heroes and their families. joining me is the ceo of the foundation and four star general, leo sisko. it is amazing what your foundation has done. you provided these homes and i think a lot of people may say that is what i thought the v.a. was supposed to do, to take care of our military service when they've done that service. >> that just don't happen governor.

we are excited to do this. i'm excited to be involved in this and i'm in the middle of it and i'm still amazed every day i can do it and i pinch myself to make sure i can really do all of this. >> and before we talk about the foundation and the homes you provide. this week was a gut punch to a lot of people in the military. a lot of retirees found out that part of the budget deal and everybody acknowledges it was a mistake. but right now retirees will get less in their pensions. y now why is that and how will it affect these folks? >> it will dramatically effect them because most of them are living off of that pension and for our government not to understand what they've done is just amazing to me. and if it is an accident, then fix it. that is all i can say. >> they should have fixed it before they went home for christmas. >> they should have read it. >> that would be unprecedented, to read the legislation they pass. [ applause ] >> if they don't fix it, let's

talk about some of the ways that it will affect the lives of our heroes. >> i can give you an example. one that works with our foundation, he has plate in the back of his neck and when he gets injured, it stopped where he could function, stopped the pain. well it is about time for that to come out. well the obamacare is now taking him off of tricare. his wife and daughter are still on, but he's not. right now he's not and it may be a year before he can be back on it. so they can't do anything medically for him now without him paying for it himself. and this hero was blown up eight times in iraq and they are saying -- you can't be on tricare. we won't cover you. that is the most ridiculous thing. and i think all americans agree, that is wrong. >> it is embarrassing. it is embarrassing to me as a taxpayer to find out of the ways my tax money is wasted. and he is the first in line to

do what the country needs to do to provide for his needs and he has to wait for congress. that issin krepdiblely -- incredibly wrong. i want to talk you about the process of applying for homes. you've given away 538 homes. and we'll talk about the process. there are thousands of people who have applied. and we'll meet a family who has applied, one of the thousands and we'll talk to this wounded vet and his family. they've applied for the program and we'll find out what owning their own home will mean for them and perhaps someone you know that has been in the military. we'll be right back. we're going across america to let people try

and welcome back. we are back with general cisco of the military warrior support foundation and joining us is tony wissanski who was hurt in october of 2006 when a grenade was thrown at his humvee. tract europed his skull and penetrated his chest. and you now suffers from hearing loss and requires glasses and brain damage and suffering from ptsd. but tony and his wife amy and in the audience their daughter amy and they have a special needs son named hugh who was not able to make it to new york today. >> now you have applied for support from the wounded warrior foundation. how did you hear about it? >> governor, it was from word of mouth. we keep in touch with several others in the wounded warrior community and they told us about the support foundation and they

encouraged us to look into it. and so we had applieapplied, ba 2009. and so we've been in their system ever since. >> i know there are thousands of people who have applications in so it is a really -- and i know the general, it is probably one of your frustrations. thousands of people applying for hundreds and you've given away 538, and that is an amazing left but there are thousands left. >> and our goal is to give 1,000 to family members and 500 to other family members. and we have them here today to encourage other heroes to apply. we have about a thousand that have applied. they need to go to our web page military warriors and apply for a home. >> and tony comes home and all kinds of issues you are dealing with. you decided you whether not be a

victim. you went back to law school and finished a law degree. this must have been an incredible challenge with two kids, one with special needs and your husband a wounded warrior. it amazing me you pulled this off and went to law school. >> thank you. that is the way i was raised. my mother had me really, really young. and she ended up going to college and took me with her. so it just -- it was how i was raised. you don't give up when things are bad. and you just keep on going, because that is really the only thing you can do. and i hope that other spouses of wounded guys realize that. that their lives don't have to stop. they can keep going and go get their education and do great things. >> but it is tough and i know that is probably one of the reasons you applied for one of the houses, hoping that some day maybe that could happen. a lot of people don't understand, we're talking about

some nice homes and i think you brought pictures of a typical home you give. these are homes that help make available. we have photos and let's take a look and tell us about this one. >> this one is -- actually this is one in north carolina, governor. >> is it? where in kno-- in north carolin >> near fort bragg. >> that is close to where you live? >> we are close. >> and general, why don't we give this house to this couple? what do you think? >> thank you. >> there is the key. what about that? [ applause ] >> how is that for a christmas present? >> incredible. >> merry christmas. >> thank you so much. >> isn't that great. i was just going to ask, tony,

tell me how this helps you and your family. you can go home to this house? >> it can be a tremendous help. that is one thing that weighed heavily on my mind is the fact that -- at the moment, i'm unemployed and i'm not working. amy has been gutting it out and trying to complete her education, go through law school, she's taken the bar exam, so at this point this is going to be a tremendous help for us financially and our future for sure. >> and general, one of the things the people need to know about the foundation. you not only provide them a home, but three years of financial counseling to make sure this will be a long-term process of making it work. >> yes. i didn't want them to get the home mortgage and lose the money or sell the home and lose the money. and i'll tell you governor, this is an incredible christmas present for this hero and his family. but the thing that warms my

heart the most, there are 682 children in beautiful homes today and they are going to have a great christmas. >> they really are. and general, thank you. it would be very easy for your long and distinguished community career to just say i'm done. but you continue to help families like tony and amy and cindy and you have the best christmas they could have imagined. a brand new home provided for you. that is one issue you don't have to worry about. i bet you're ready to go to north carolina and get that house? >> yes. >> god bless you. merry christmas to you and thank you, general, for all you and the foundation are doing. have a great christmas. >> thank you. >> i would love to thank our partner on this. chase bank is our partner on this home giveaway and i want to thank them and the people that support us like george strait, george jones, before he passed away. clay walker, martina mcbride, miranda lambert, just go down

the list. incredible people that love our heroes and support them too. >> god bless them and all that you guys do. well there is no place like home for the holidays. unfortunately a lot of americans can't afford to fly home to spend christmas with their families but coming up we'll talk to a man who is helping people get home. and we'll meet some of the people he's helping out. stay with us. out. stay with us.
