5:01 pm
ladies and gentlemen, governor mike huckabee. >> thank you. thank you very much. and welcome to huckabee from the fox news studios in new york city. last week in this very segment, i explained that i think democrats who accuse republicans of a so-called war on women were outrageously insulting and cond sensing to women by treating them as victims of their gender. for democrats to reduce women to beggars for cheap government funded birth control is demeaning to the women i know who are far more complicated than their libido and the management of their reproductive system. >> well, the reaction on facebook was overwhelmingly positive, and overwhelmingly from women. we got this from christina webb
5:02 pm
who said amazing monologue for life. loving tonight's opening monologue. and from carolyn davies, provo on your opening monologue. very well said. well, folks, i got a very strong, well educated, and very capable wife. she could do things i sure can't do. and she's a lot tougher than me in many ways. i assure you she is not helpless. she's conquered cancer, raised kids, run disaster relief for the red cross, and she's built houses for people in poverty in third world countries in her work with habitat for humanity. i explained that saying women wouldn't be able to survive without the government bailing them out with free abortions and birth control is demeaning to women. my daughter and my daughter-in-law are also strong, professional women who are anything but helpless. well, this past week, i had the opportunity to speak at the winter meeting of the republican national committee meeting in washington. >> our party stands for the
5:03 pm
recognition of the equality of women and the capacity of women. that's not a war on them. it's a war for them. and if the democrats want to insult the women of america by making them believe that they are helpless without uncle sugar coming in and providing for them a prescription each month for birth control because they cannot control their libido or reproductive system without the help of the government, then so be it. let us take that discussion all across america because women are far more than the democrats have played them to be. >> okay, so i repeated -- [ applause ] >> thank you. i repeated those very words from my monologue. but i learned that you, my television audience, is much smarter than the media types who cover politics. dana bash of cnn and casey hunt of nbc covering the speech instantly tweeted out what they somehow thought i had said. dana bash tweeted this. at rnc meeting, mike huckabee
5:04 pm
just said federal government shouldn't help women who can't control their libido with birth control. and casey hunt tweeted, huckabee, women helpless without uncle sugar coming in and providing them with birth control because they can't control their libido. trouble is what they tweeted was the exact opposite of what i said. now, to their credit, after some of their colleagues pointed that out, they tried to issue kre corrections, but by then, even white house press secretary jay carney was reacting to a completely phony story. >> not that long ago at the rnc winter meeting here in washington, mike huckabee said that the democrats' message to women is that they're -- i'm reading from the report. they're helpless without uncle sugar coming in and providing for them a prescription each month for birth control because they cannot control their libido or their reproductive systems without the help of government. is that the president's message? >> i hadn't seen that report,
5:05 pm
but whoever said it, it sounds offensive to me, and to women. >> let me tell you who said it, jay. i didn't say that. the reporter said it. and like you, i am offended by their misinterpretation. well, of course carney is experienced at responded to a lot of phony stories and lies, like you can keep your doctor, you can keep your health insurance, benghazi was because of a youtube video, and we don't spy on americans. and good old debbie wasserman schultz went off like a bottle rocket, amped up the lie, and immediately begged for money off it. but here's the fact. it's impossible for women to be equal and then be characterized as helpless victims dependent on the government to lie. facts don't get in the way of liberals who would rather shout than talk, so let me say it again.
5:06 pm
the republicans don't have a war on women. but a war for women. we want them to have the power to choose their children's schools and not be forced to accept the government's choice for one that fails. we want them to be treated with respect for the decisions they make, whether it's a decision to raise children or enter the work force. but the democrats to believe that women can't make it without democracy on a government program or giveaway is disgusting. there was a reason that i appointed more women to executive positions than any governor in my state's history including bill clinton. i believe they could do the job and do it well. if the democrats want to patronize women, that's their business, but the public deserves professional and accurate journalism whether it's reported by men or women. and last week, some of the media could have used a little assistance in trying to be a little more accurate. a lot more accurate, in fact.
5:07 pm
well, we've heard the mainstream media's reaction to my comments, so how did millennials feel about what i said? joining me, francesca, of red alert politics, shia ellis, a junior studying political science at notre dame, and kayla, editor of political prospect. well, guys, great to have all of you here. francesca, let me get under way with you. you're a female, you're a millennial. how much government do you need? >> well, first, i want to respond to what you said in the monologue and point out that, you know, when sarah silverman gets up and does a live telethon for abortion, she gets up there and she raffles off a vagina napkin, it barely makes a blip in the national media. you get up there and say the words libido and it's a national
5:08 pm
story. so i'm continually frustrated by the hypocrisy of the media. >> i didn't think it -- i don't see it as a vulgar thing. it's a god given gift to human beings. before i go to shia, i want to get another female voice in here. kaley, when you hear democrats say women are going to have to have help with such things as birth control pills. i don't care if they give them. i don't think women should feel complimented they have been reduced to that as their only goal. >> you hit the nail on the head. i applaud your courage. for democrats, the definition of an independent woman is the one who demands the right to derminader terminate her child before it is born. as one who wants to stipend h her -- the war on women is waged by the democratic party, a
5:09 pm
covert war to paint women in need of the government. i will not be a victim. >> shia, i'm going to just throw it out there. you're a guy. i don't know if we have an opinion on this, even though i found out i did and it wasn't very popular, so go ahead. step in the hole with me, friend. >> i'll step in the hole with you. >> come on. >> given how controversial this topic is, i wouldn't have gone with the word libido. i would have said something along the lines that women are more than the democrats make them out to be. women are more than the choices they make. there are mothers, daughters, aunts, nieces and nephews, and everyone should seek to treat women with dignity, with respect, and equality. >> well, you know, i wish you had been around last week. maybe you could have advised me and protected me from some of the stuff i found myself in the middle of. millennials were a key demographic in both of president obama's campaigns.
5:10 pm
i'm going to find out how they feel about the class warfare, income inequality. stay with us. >> if you would lake to comment on tonight's show, i welcome your response. go to my website, mikehuckabee.com. you can communicate with me on facebook, get messages on twitter, or leave comments on the feed back section at mikehuckabee.com. ♪ [ male announcer ] wt kind of energy is so abundant, it can help provide the power for all th natural gas.

the president is going to address the nation in the state of the union speech on tuesday night. are americans looking forward to the address? we sent ryan to the streets to find out. >> are you really excited about the state of the union address next week? >> couldn't care less. >> not really. >> are you guys super excited for the state of the union next week? >> yeah. >> sure. >> what teams are you rooting for?
5:14 pm
>> i'm going to go with the broncos. >> going to have a state of the union address party? >> actually, it sounds like a good idea. i'll consider it. >> drinking games? >> probably. i'm really good at making up drinking games. definitely. >> like every time the president lies, do a shot? >> oh, well -- >> on a scale of 1 to 10, how would you rank the state of the country? >> 1 or a 2. maybe a 3. >> 3. >> four. >> what would you rather watch, the puppy bowl or the state of the union? >> puppy bowl. >> puppy bowl. >> that one takes it at the 30 yard line. >> you think the president will address the nsa spying scandal? >> i'm going to say briefly. >> how do you feel about the spying scandal? >> does it matter? >> what would you rather bet on? the seattle seahawks or joe biden falling asleep during the state of the union? >> i would say joe biden falling asleep.
5:15 pm
>> do you think the president is going to tell the truth? >> probably not. >> do you think he seems more truthful in hd? >> can you remember anything the president has said in the past five years? >> what person? oh, the president. i thought you said a person. >> thank you very muff. >> you think the president will address the extension of unemployment? >> absolutely. >> do you think he'll address the legalization of marijuana? >> no, i do not. >> do you think people are going to use the unemployment to buy marijuana? >> absolutely. >> all right, thanks to ryan on the streets of new york. >> well, a big thing for the state of the union address is expected to be the president's message of income inequality. we're back with the panel of millenni millennials, and kaley once worked for our school. she's now a law student at the university of miami. great to see you today. >> thank you. >> president's message, he says, is income inequality.
5:16 pm
he wants to work on that this year. what's wrong with that? >> for millennials, it's hard to care about income inequality when they don't have income. 16% of millennials are unemployed. one third are living at home with their parents. median household income in 1990 was $21,000. it's $6,000 now. this is obama's america where we're seeing mass unemployment, health care premiums for millennials are three times what they were last year. they're suffering, hurting. they are the poor, the income inequality, and they're not buying the president's message anymore. they're just not. it's broken promises and we're going to hear more of those. >> the president has long said, and frankly, we all have, that a college education is the ticked to a better income, a better future. now people are coming out of college, they can't get a job, they have this huge dent. what would you like to see, policies change that would help you as a millennial look out at
5:17 pm
the future and say i have a shot? >> i would be optimistic of the future if we saw regulation. regulation wasn't introduced for regulation's sake. we're going to regulate this just because. i would like to see the democratic senate take up some of the republican house jobs bill. that would be -- that would be really good. >> what specifically about that bill do you like and you think would help you? >> i would be very, very, very happy with the tax cuts in the jobs bill. tax cuts for job growth and millennials are going back to home, living with their parents and really not seeing the jobs or they're unemployed or underemployed. that could really help out. >> francesca, let's ask you about this whole income inequality issue. does it concern you that we're creating almost this division in america between the haves and have nots? there is a division. i think there is income inequality. what could or should the
5:18 pm
government do to address the fact that there are so many people working harder but they're not getting ahead? >> well, i think you have to lack at education reform first and foremost at the lower level, introducing school choice so smart young people can go to schools in their area that are best for them and also those children who might need a little more help can go to the schools that are best for them as well. that's number one. then those kids will be able to get scholarships if they're going to the schools that are right for them, to public universities. number otwo, once they get ther, they're graduating with large loads of debt. the thing with the higher education level is what we're going to have to do in order to make sure the kids aren't burdened by the debt and can buy houses and what not throughout their lifetime is that the government is more transparent. they run the public universities. they're more transparent with what you're going to get with the degree. if you're going to go to university, you should see how many other people in that field
5:19 pm
got jobs. the percentages, how many people in the field, and how many people at the university were able to get jobs. >> i'm going to ask you, but quickly, give me one topic you want the president to address. just the topic. >> the absolute disaster that is obamacare how he plans to fix it. >> i wouldn't expect it, but i agree. shia? >> the unemployment that gripped the nation since his inauguration in 2009. >> excellent. francesca? >> the higher education theme. instead of focusing on getting lower education students into college, i would like for him to focus on making it more affordable. >> great answers. i think all of you should run for congress. you know, i think you could do a lot better than some of the stuff we have going on right now. thank you very much. kyla and shia and francesca. great to see you all. unlike barack obama, action star steven seagal has a good relationship with russia's president. i'm going to be talking to him about the threat of terrorism at next month's olympics later in

the show. but first, why am i sticking up for scarlett johansson? you'll find out when we come back. drinking plenty of water, but still not getting relief? try dulcolax laxative tablets. dulcolax is comfort-coated for gentle, over-night relief. dulcolax. predictable over-night relief you can count on.

[ male announcer ] at a company that's bringing media and technology together. next is every second of nbcuniversal's coverage 0f the 2014 olympic winter games. it's connecting over one million low-income americans
5:23 pm
to broadband internet at home. it's a place named one america's most veteran friendly employers. next is information and entertainment in ways you never thought possible. welcome to what's next. comcastnbcuniversal. actress actress scarlett johansson is getting a lot of flack because of a product she's indorsing. you have seen the sodatreme soda maker. it makes different flavored sodas without clogging up the environment. they're going to appear in the super bowl. here's a behind the scenes clip. >> my favorite thing about sodastream is that i don't feel guilty when i enjoy beverages at home. i don't feel like i'm being wasteful. >> yeah, i mean, you know, you might be thinking, what could be controversial about sodastream?
5:24 pm
well, sodastream is an israeli company, and critics don't like the fact it operates in an israeli neighborhood in judeaa, where some people wish israelis wouldn'tive, and some groups really wish scarlett wouldn't indorse sodastream. one group is uxfam, for which she's a global ambassador. it issued this statement and i quote. ox fam respects the independence of our ambassadors, however, oxfam believes businesses that operate in settlements further the ongoing poverty and denial of rights of the palestinian communities that we work to support. oxfam is opposed to all trade from israeli settlements illegal under international law, we have made our concerns known to ms. johansson and we're engaged in a dialogue. i hope you are. and i hope you go and learn a little about what sodastream is doing in their neighbors.
5:25 pm
are you aware they're hiring palestinians at wages they have never, ever in their lives earned before? wages, by the way, which are exactly equal to what any israeli is getting at the factory? this is an example of what ought to be happening in the middle east. palestinians and jewish israelis working side-by-side in a company without their political differences getting in the way of both of them taking a good paycheck home to their family. what's wrong with that? i would suggest that sodastream in creating good jobs and giving equal pay and benefits is doing a whole lot more to improve peace in the middle east than your organization ever has or will. well, president obama gave an interview to the new yorker magazine. the part that got the most coverage is that he didn't think marijuana was as dangerous as alcohol. what didn't get a lot of coverage is how president obama characterized al qaeda. here's the quote. he said the analogy we use
5:26 pm
around here sometimes, and i think is accurate, is if a jv team puts on a lakers uniform, that doesn't make them kobe bryant. i think there's a distinction between the capacity and reach of a bin laden and a network that is actively planning major terrorist plots against the homeland against jihadists engaged in various local power struggles and disputes, often sectarian. for somebody who has been in the middle of a controversy over something, i said i'm surprised that the president hasn't been in a little controversy over suggesting that somehow the al qaeda operatives who continue to blow up american citizens and wreak havoc and threaten the olympic games are somehow nothing but jv players, junior varsity. i think the families of those who are threatened and the fact that the pace of the olempices is at risk tells us it's a little more than amateurs. james o'keefe and his group,
5:27 pm
they're known for exposing corruption with undercover videos. remember his expozy on the community organizing group, a.c.o.r.n. supporters of wendy davis mocking davis' likely opponent for texas governor, greg abbott. abbott is in a wheelchair. >> really wondering how this is going to work out because he's in a wheelchair, and most of the slogans are stand with wendy. >> that's in our subconscious now. it's interesting to me because a psychological point of view. >> what i think is amazing is he's in a wheelchair, but he has no sympathy for anyone. >> he may have a personality disorder. >> first of all, not good looking. he doesn't speak very well. he doesn't have a good personality, and he's in a wheelchair. >> you know, i know greg abbott. he's a wonderful person. he's overcome a great deal of
5:28 pm
adversity since he was left paraplegic in an accident out on a jog at the age of 26. he's an outstanding public servant, and he deserves better than the kind of ridicule that he received from people who claim to be political operatives. if that's the brand of politics that we're going to have to tolerate and put up with america, then we all need to get out and vote and make sure people like that don't get elected to anything. during the original olympics in greece, wars were suspended and a truce was established to allow athletes and spectators to travel safely to the games. the concept has been revived in modern times, but the threat of violencei at the winter games i sochi is very real. will americans be safe if they travel to russia. steven seagal has ties to russia. holorr join me next to talk about what's coming up at the wi

live from america's news headquarters, i'm harris faulkner. police say the suspected gunman in a subbrben maryland mall shooting this weekend had no criminal record. it was breaking news on fox news most of yesterday. two people died, another person shot. today, detectives searched the home of 19-year-old darion aguilar. he expressed a general unhappiness with life. they say he killed himself at the mall. he was armed with a shotgun and had made homemade explosives when he went to a skate shop at the columbia mall. they're trying to determine why he opened fire. >> temperatures in dangerous territory again from minneapolis to louisville, kentucky. zero visibility forcing the closing of roads, the windchill, and minneapolis will feel like 43 below zero tomorrow. i'm harris faulkner. in a couple seconds, back to huckabee.
5:33 pm
the state department is warning american athletes to not wear their team usa gear outside of olympic village during next week's winter olympics in russia, and that's after the u.s. and several european countries have received threatening e-mail messages warning of a terrorist attack. international olympic committee officials have shot down those threats, but the hunt continues for black widow suicide bombers plotting to disrupt the winter games. >> russian police are looking for a female terrorist suspect targeting the olympics. security officials say the 22-year-old penetrated the 1500 mile ring of steel surrounding sochi with plans to attack the winter games. but she may not be alone. two other female extremists have been named, believed to be planning an attack on the final leg of the olympic torch relay. these so-called black widows don't fit the mold of a typical terrorist and can more
5:34 pm
effectively blend into a crowd. they're trained young muslim women recruited by extremists and sent to avenge the deaths of their husbands or family members. islamist militants from the north caucasus. the manhunt follows last month's back-to-back suicide bombings in volgograd that killed 35 people. an islamic group from the caucasus has claimed responsibility for the attacks. some olympians like canadian goalie mike smith, have told their loved ones to stay home. >> it's not worth it. >> preparing for the worst, the u.s. is sending two warships to the black sea and placing several aircraft on standby, ready to evacuate thousands of americans in the case of an attack. actor steven seagal has taken on the enemy on the big screen in movies like undersiege, but in real life, he's become an ambassador who developed a friendly relationship with vladimir putin. something our own president has
5:35 pm
not been able to do. steven helped arrange a fact finding mission to russia for six members of congress after the russian baumans last year. that's when no one else was able to get it done. he joins me now. it's an honor to have you here. thanks for being part of the show. >> thank you for having me. >> you do have a good relationship with vladimir putin, and the world's attention is on the stage of russia because of the olympics. do you feel confident that he and the russian government can make this a safe environment for the people of the world who will gather for the olympics? >> i don't think there's any such thing as 100% guarantee on anything in life. as you know, you could walk out to, you know, go buy a bag of sugar and get hit by a car. so anything is possible, but i
5:36 pm
do know the office very well. i think they're some of the best anti-terrorist commandos in the world. i know them very well, actually. and i think that by virtue of the fact they have so much experience with terrorism, you couldn't have a better group of guys that are out there searching them out and, you know, getting rid of them or getting them neutralized. and i also think that they're one of the most spectacular groups of, you know, intel people in the world. i just think that the chances of any of these suicide bombers being able to pull it off are extremely remote, by virtue of the fact that, you know, sochi is on such high alert. they have amazing assets in place with great liaison all over the world. so president putin is doing the
5:37 pm
very best he can. and like i said, you know, they're really some of the best on earth. so it's going to be pretty tough for anybody to pull it off. >> you have a good relationship with vladimir putin. it seems like our government right now does not. some over the edward snowden, some over syria. if you could give advice to the president, what advice would you give him that would help warm the relationships between the united states and russia? >> when you say the president, you mean obama? >> yes. >> yeah, well, we're talking about two presidents here. my advice to president obama would be that it's extremely important to have russia as our ally. they're very powerful country with spectacular natural resources and a wonderful leadership. and i believe that they are our friends. and i think one of the only ways in the world we're going to
5:38 pm
survive without getting swallowed by other superpowers or adversely affected is to be best friends with russia, to -- i think they should be our great allies. and i think they would like to be our great allieallies, and m advice to the president of the united states would be to please consider these words because i know russia is very open to a fair, wonderful, strong, sincere relationship where we can both really help each other. >> you think russia ought to give edward snowden over to the u.s.? is that a good idea? or not a good idea, steve? >> you know, the problem is we don't really know what happened. i have spoken intimately numerous occasions to congress and you know, a lot of them are under the strong impression that snowdon is not necessarily a criminal, and possibly even a hero. now, whether or not he's a
5:39 pm
criminal or a hero, i don't know, because we don't really know the kind of information that was leaked and therefore it's not easy for me to comment. >> steven, on a lighter note to end things, i notice behind you there's a marshall amifier, which tells me you must be a musician to have one sitting around. i don't know if that's something you play. if it is, you're going to have to come on the show and bring your musical instrument. we'll make some tunes together. >> i'll play for you any time. >> you're on. steven segal, thanks for joining us. a pleasure to have you. >> thank you for having me. >> thank you. well, weddings, bar mitzvahs, office parties. you go to any party, chances are the dj is going to get you out on the dance floor by playing "i will survive" but her own story is one of personal perseverance
