3:02 am
it is snowing. if the snow would have arrived 12 hours earlier, what a difference that super bowl would have been. >> people might have stayed for all fourth quarters even though it was over really quick. by the way, i'm going to miss that animation. it is the first time i've heard it and i haven't been cold. >> great coverage of the game. i thought it was one of the best games. actually i felt like i was there. i'm sure you had some favorite moments being in the heat of it in the stadium. >> i had a totally different experience because i have no idea what you saw at home. i can only tell you what it was like to start. you were at your house? >> i was at the house. the kid thought we were having a party but it was just up. bruno mars i thought was sensational in terms of how he performed. i thought his tribute to the troops came at an awesomely unexpected time
3:03 am
and it was so moving. take a listen. >> song for my brother and sister. miss you guys. >> this song goes out to my beautiful bride, nikki. i love you. >> i love you. i'll be home soon. ♪ >> and split screen with the fireworks. brian, making a lot of noise where you were? >> i thought the fireworks were unbelievable. i thought -- for me, i thought that was great. i also thought the national anthem. i'm not a big opera guy and evidently she's very famous. >> renee fleming. >> it was so perfect. watch this. ♪ >> the flyover. across the pentagon, goose bumps on ever in attendance. they were from the 101st airborne division. i know because they flew over my house five minutes
3:04 am
before. i tweeted out i'm just guessing. i think something big is going to happen at the super bowl involving helicopters in about five minutes. >> with the domes obviously you don't do that. this is an open-air stadium. one of the great things about not having a roof, you get to see it. i'm expecting some type of stealth bomber or something to whip across. everyone is looking up and these choppers come across and it felt like muscle. and i felt like a gift and they came up. you saw peyton manning's face? that is what essentially everyone was doing. they hovered and then they left. >> what i thought was fun is joe namath was in an ad with rob riegle our friend and then he showed up in the same coat that he was wearing. look at that. the official stopped joe namath because joe namath essentially screwed up the coin toss, false toss,
3:05 am
tried to toss before the captains picked heads or tales. obviously the seattle seahawks went on to win but throughout the night joe namath's coat on twitter was completely lambasted. for instance, off of twitter, joe namath's cope just -- coat just bit two people. and on and on and on. >> that coat was about what he wore. that was joe namath in the 60's and 70's. he dominated the sports scene because he was flamboyant and wore the fur coats and singled himself out and made himself a star on and off the field. >> the game had so many great parts and you hear about m.v.p. i think the m.v.p. actually goes to bill o'reilly. he had a sit-down with president obama. he pressed the president on some of his scandals, first
3:06 am
starting actually with health care. he kind of laid into him and actually was quite practical in his question saying i'm an american here, i'm a taxpayer, why hasn't kathleen sebelius been held accountable? >> why didn't you fire sebelius, the secretary in charge of this? she had to know after all those years and all that money it wasn't going to work. >> my main priority is making sure it delivers for the american people. what we've ended up doing is we've got three million people signed up so far. we're about a month behind where we anticipated we wanted to be. we've got over six million people who signed up for medicaid. we've got three million young people under the age of 26 who are signed up on their parents' plan. what we're constantly figuring out is how do we continue to improve it, how do we make sure the folks who don't have health insurance can get health insurance and those who are underinsured get better health insurance. >> i'm sure the intent is noble but i'm a taxpayer and i'm paying kathleen sebelius' salary and she
3:07 am
screwed up and you're not holding her accountable. >> we hold everybody accountable. when we're mid stream, bill, we want to make sure our main focus is how do we make this thing work so people are able to sign up and that's what we've done. >> he said how did you know? i didn't know. the person who did know that didn't tell you perhaps or did tell you and you're not telling us, she had three years to get it ready. why does she still have a job? and again the president chooses not to answer. >> i think what bill was going for was some feel the president did know ahead of time. and it's pass the buck thing. but bill would not, you know, on all sorts of issues he pinned him down on benghazi. we're going to play a snippet from that. the i.r.s. as well. and what the president was doing was simply playing defense from the get-go. >> and accusing fox. >> exactly. when the president got backed into a corner, he said these are things you guys bring up on fox and
3:08 am
your tv station, you know. it's unfortunate that the president would blame fox considering we're just asking some questions. >> "the new york times" led the attacks. i don't remember bill clinton turning around saying that "new york times." and george bush could sit down with any of the networks and say why are you running down the war? i don't think he ever said that. >> we'll talk to bill himself. >> we shared some of our favorite moments from the super bowl. what are yours? e-mail them to us. you can twitter us or facebook us as well. >> we'll be checking them right here. in other sad news hollywood

answers, conflicting information. what are you doing to fix this or simplify what seems to be such a complicated process? >> that was rebecca sty wart from kentucky concerned about coverage for her son's medical coverage under obamacare. here is how the president responded to her. >> what i'll do first right away is make sure somebody out of here, this white house calls you directly. i promise you not only will they be competent but it will be the right answer. >> not only did the president get in touch but did he fix the problem? we'll find out now. good morning, rebecca. thank you for being with us. >> the president did get back. as i understand it, you did have communication. what came out of the calls or communication from the white house? >> they were great about calling me very quickly. i got calls from two different people at the white house. originally i think what they were doing was giving me an answer to call the state of kentucky and they
3:18 am
would set me up with the state and put me in touch. i started to say after the president answered my question that i've already called the state of kentucky and i've already gone up the chain to a supervisor, and that's really not my problem. what my problem is the answer i get from the state of kentucky differs from the answer i get from the hospital in question which differs from my private insurer. i did get a call but i don't have an answer. >> you're not alone there. you actually have a voice to offer here and you got in touch with the white house. but i want to let everybody know your story here. what answers do you need? you said you were happy with your coverage. it had to do with your son and the care that he was getting which is no longer guaranteed. let everyone know. i think the heart of a mom trying to guarantee her kids get to keep the care they had, that they liked, they were promised is something everyone can relate to. >> that's right. that's what gets me is that we were promised that we were going to be able to keep this and now we're not. and i can't even get an answer about it. originally i was told by

3:26 am
our abilities. >> did anybody on your team object to that? >> not that i know of. i mean, coach always gives you the option if you don't want to pray, you can step out. you don't have to pray. you can just step aside. it is not a regulation that you have to pray before games but i didn't see no one object, step out. >> i got through the whole season and then this suit comes down on you guys. what's been the reaction since? >> i think a lot of disappointment in the community because each and every one of the players and the students and a lot of parents and fans around the community know how good of a guy, great of a coach, how caps is. he's more than just a coach. he does a lot for the students in the community and he reaches out to families that don't have a lot. and he helps us all grow as men more than just players. >> here's a tweet from another one of those players. these clowns think they're
3:27 am
going to stop teams from praying? really. god is much stronger than this pathetic group. but the school superintendent met with your coach and he says stop with the religious activities. do you think the coach should stop? >> i believe the coach shouldn't have to stop, but in the school's best interest it would probably be better for him to stop. but that's where the students and the players step up and take the leadership role, and we have to step up and we have to lead instead of our coach since he can't. >> if you do it on your own without the coach leading, are they going to sue the players? >> they can't. that's our right. >> okay. it was very brave of you to come out. always great to see a coach is affecting players like you on a daily basis become better people. dallas jackson, good job standing up and fighting for what you believe in. best of luck the rest of the school year. 27 minutes after the top of the hour. we move ahead. president obama blaming fox news for revealing the

4:19 am
network or that network -- >> in your -- >> this is one time i won't blame george bush. >> okay. let's write that down. >> briefly, is that a strength or weakness when someone is blaming the media? >> look, it clearly says that you're on the defense when you're doing that. whether a republican does it or a democrat does it, you're being defensive if you've got to blame other people. so i don't think there is any doubt about that. look, i think the most important thing about it was that he was talking -- i've always thought as a democrat that the fox audience is the biggest one out there and obviously it was even bigger because the super bowl in terms of people tuning in. so i think it was a big opportunity for him and democrats to start communicating to an audience that he's -- the white house has been avoiding for whatever reason. >> maybe the president will just

shouldn't have done it. and i definitely think he should have worn a tie. you know? he's the president of the united states. >> i never thought of that. >> let him put on a tie. bill was wearing a tie. not that he has to follow bill, but bill was wearing a tie. he's the president. it's a formal position. i think he should wear a tie. >> what message is he sending by not? >> it's sloppy. it's not appropriate. it's not presidential. he's the president of the united states. let him put on a tie. >> what's interesting is that bill o'reilly stayed later and they had more time. so i'm very curious to see where the interview went. >> i think a will be on "the factor" tonight. >> he really did. he did a good job. fair, but tough. look, he's a professional. he's really a great professional. >> sure. the president of the united states, you know, he was playing defense. he didn't want to make news with any answers. bill o'reilly was dogged and determined in trying to get so the bottom of benghazi.
4:37 am
here is an exchange where he's saying what's the deal with susan rice? she was blaming it on a youtube video. here is the interchange. >> soup rice goes out and tells the world that it was a spontaneous demonstration off a videotape, but your commanders and secretary of defense know it's a terrorist attack. just as an american, i'm just confused. >> i'm trying to explain it to you if you want to listen. the fact of the matter is that people understood at the time something very dangerous was happening, that we were focused on making sure that we did everything we can to protect them. in the aftermath what became clear was that the security was lax, that not all the precautions that needed to be taken were taken, and both myself and secretary clinton and others indicated as much. >> the president also said at one point, you know, bill, the day after i called it a terrorist attack. he was not referring to that as a terrorist attack. that's what came up during the
4:38 am
debate with mitt romney. he was speaking of terror generally. how did you think the president did regarding the benghazi talking points? >> well, benghazi is an amazing thing because it doesn't seem to resonate with anybody and it should. and when he just said that they did everything they could to protect, well, what does that mean? everything? that's the first time i've actually heard him say that. they did everything they could to protect? if that's the case, then we're pretty pathetic as a nation. >> by the way -- >> i was surprised to hear him say that. >> where are the guys that did it? did we bring them to justice? >> amazingly, we know the guys, brian. we know who they are and we don't go in and get them. we don't do anything. we are not the same country. but when he said we did everything we could to protect, that means that we did everything we could and we couldn't protect. now, we can't protect against some rebels? it is amazing to me.
4:39 am
but they do know the people that did it and they don't do anything about it. rather amazing. >> "new york times" had a mimosa at a party a week later. >> we interviewed them as well. >> the amazing thing about benghazi, you talk about it and frankly, they talk about it quite a bit on fox, but outside of fox, nobody talks about benghazi. it doesn't resonate. it's not resonating and it should be resonating. >> right about that, mr. trump. we thank you for bringing your insights from this game. i know that was frustrating to watch, to bill o'reilly's interview with the president. >> mr. trump, you make neck ties. you should send the president a couple. >> that's a great idea. you just gave may great idea right out of macy's. i'll send them immediately. but die mean that. that has nothing to do with my ties. that has to do with the fact that he's the president and in my opinion, that's what he should be doing. >> you could have matched that outfit is what you're saying. >> we could have given him a nice tie. no question about that. >> exactly. thanks, donald trump.

4:45 am
4:46 am
sports in america. new research shows kids participation in team sports down, dropping among boys and girls by about 4% from 08 to 12. so are american kids going soft? are they just playing video games? joining us now is the pit bull of personal development, larry wingate, author of this book "your kids are your own fault." larry y are kids not playing sports now? why is it dropping slightly? >> i think we can blame two areas. one is laziness. laziness on the part of parents. if you stick technology in front of your kid or your kid in front of technology, you are a lazy parent. you have to become involved. you have to sacrifice your time in front of the tv or your x box or ipad to take your kids to practice and make sure they show up for games. that's one thing. i think the other thing, though, is that we're afraid of competition. we don't want our precious little snowflake to ever experience any loss or hurt or
4:47 am
pain. so we don't want them to compete. >> basketball is down 6.3%. actually lacrosse is up slightly. soccer is flat. the other thing that could be is that there is so much pressure to get the best of the best of the best playing. after a while, the kids will feel they're not the best y do i even try. is that a problem? >> i do think that's a problem. i do think that some sports officials they need to understand that it's still supposed to be fun for kids and it's about a kid being their best and playing their own personal best. you're not going to win every game. that's okay. >> what's so interesting is when people drill down on success later in life, especially if you read that book about david and goliath, so much is predicated on failure early. not having success when you're young. so you identify and experience and appreciate it when do you break through later. >> i think that's going to be the biggest ramification of all of this. it's not about whether your kid plays football or basketball or
4:48 am
soccer. it's about 15 years from now when they're in the workplace and don't know how to work with others or understand there are going to be other players in the workplace who are naturally better than they are and they have o work harder. they've never experienced loss. they don't know how to win with dignity, lose with dignity. those things are important skills that sports teach you. >> so one rule we have in our house is we're not going to make you play sport. but if you join that league, you have to finish the season. what's the rule in your house, larry? or what was it? >> that was the very same thing. you finish what you start. you can play anything you want to play, but if you sign up for it, you're going to finish this season. >> right. and by the way, if your kid doesn't have success, blame the coach or blame the ref. you still go with that? >> oh, yeah. that's a great idea, brian. always blame somebody else. >> i'm just telling you what elisabeth tells me on the couch every day. i just got to sit there and pretend like it's normal. only kidding. thanks so much. kids, go play sports! i don't care if you want to

4:53 am
and our winner is from katy, texas. you'll get a copy of brian's new book. congratulations. academy award winning actor philip seymour hoffman dead at 46 years old of an apparent heroin overdose. drug-related deaths are becoming all too common in hollywood and a growing trend across the nation as we've heard. joining us now to discuss is dr. oz. thanks for being here and talking about this. certainly sad news we're hearing. let's talk about addiction and actually what medically what happens there and specifically how heroin can affect the body, the brain, the heart. >> addictions in general are chronic, they're fatal, and they're often incurable. the survival rates are similar to cancer. a lot 6 us don't appreciate that, but i remember anesthesiologists, they have access to these drugs, dying the
4:54 am
night of our graduation by mistake, overdosing. so even if you think you know what you're doing, it's not that easy. the biggest problem today is that the heroin that was on the streets 30 years ago, used to be made in kitchens in harlem, it was almost impotent. it had very little power to it. the heroin today is 40 times stronger. >> 40 times? >> why? >> part of it is because it's being made in mexico, bolivia, and large cartel factories. the big issue is that unlike pharmaceutical products where you get exactly the same dose every time, these dosages vary dramatically. imagine if one day it was normal and the next day it was 50 times stronger. it's impossible to predict how it will affect you. it's a big issue and the problem with heroin is it's the most addictive of all drugs because it gives awe pure form of ecstasy, of bliss, where you feel everything good because it's essentially mimics what happens when good things happen to you. >> that's how it makes you feel. but what's it do to your body
4:55 am
parts, your heart, your brain? >> it puts you toly. as a heart surgeon, i put people to sleeve with a heroin equivalent called morphine. unfortunately, that's exact when people die, there is a sedative through the heart, slow it is down in a calming way, but under monitored things, it a. but not monitored, it's terrible. with heroin, it's especially addictive. we use a cousin of morphine in the hospital. the big issue with everyone is even if you have an addiction and we know celebrities, everybody goes off to rehab and comes back, i wish it was that easy. most folks do relapse. it's so difficult. >> because he was it for a while and clean. >> and there is a bad batch out there that's mixed with a powerful medication that's killed a bunch of people in the east coast. he may have gotten a batch of that. i understand there were four packets found in his bathroom.
4:56 am
oftentimes addicts will walk around with ten packets. whether he had gone through a bunch or had a lot more he was going to go through, who knows. but it's a tragic loss. and the big message for everyone watching is if you have a loved one addicted, you have to assume they will always be addicted. continue to nudge them in the right direction to get them back. it's remarkably impossible to propriae -- impossible to predict. >> straight ahead, bill o'reilly's interview with the president making waves. bret baier reacts a couple minutes from now. it was a story that outraged parents everywhere. children's school lunches tossed in the trash because their account balances were low. one outraged parent from that very school joining us live, that's next

5:06 am
really wanted the answer. did secretary panetta tell him right afterwards that benghazi was a terrorist attack? simple question. hard to get an answer. >> did he tell you, secretary panetta, it was a terrorist attack? >> you know what he told me was that there was an attack on our compound. >> he didn't use the word terror? >> you know, in the heat of the moment, bill, what folks are focused on is what's happening on the ground. do we have eyes on it, how can we make sure our -- >> did he tell you it was a terrorist attack? >> bill, i'm answering your questions. what he said was, we've got an attack on our compound. >> no terrorist attack? >> we don't know yet ho is doing it. you understand by definition, bill, when somebody is attacking our compound, that's an act of terror, which is how i characterized it the day after it happened. so the question ends up being, who, in fact, was attacking us? >> it seems like a yes or no answer and we never got one.
5:07 am
>> yeah. he goes back to the act of terror use in that speech in the rose garden. he leaves out obviously the 60 minutes interview after that where he doesn't say it's terrorism when joy behar asks on "the view" couch and he doesn't say it's terrorism and two weeks later at the united nations when he gives a speech and he doesn't say it's terrorism and talks about the video. so listen, those are legitimate questions, especially in reaction to the bipartisan senate intel report where it lays it out, essentially in the first few minutes, the military was very clear. general carter ham telling secretary panetta exactly what it was and up and down the chain the terrorist attack element of it was pretty clear. >> what was also clear, to use the president's favorite word, was that he wanted to use every opportunity on all three topics before he answered to say,
5:08 am
you're with fox, as if it's fox's fault. your reaction? >> i thought it was interesting. an interesting tactic. i suppose the back and forth was getting a little heated and that was probably baked in to some of his answers. i did find it interesting that secretary clinton tweeted out during the game, it's so much more fun to watch fox when it's someone else being blitzed and sacked. super bowl. i'm not sure she was talking about the game or "the o'reilly factor" interview. i don't know which one. but i think it was baked in to some of the answers beforehand. >> you only have ten minutes to do that. i know you've interviewed the president in the white house as well. it's hard to get him to stop filibustering and try to get him back on target. >> yeah. it's a tough job. i felt for bill. he only had ten minutes live presuper bowl. it will be interesting to see what the rest of the
5:09 am
interview -- i think 8:00 p.m. tonight on "the o'reilly factor" factor is some of the pieces of the rest of the interview. listen, it's contentious. you don't have a lot of time. and follow-ups are tough in that environment. >> we're going to watch you anyway. 6:00 o'clock eastern time. is that okay? >> sounds good.

staff were used for scape goats for a policy gone wrong. they were put on leave after students were forced to go hungry. >> we want lunch! >> they want their lunch. the school tossed their lunches out because 40 kids had an outstanding balance. not enough money on their card. our next guest says he was never notified of his third grader's lack of funds. there is the dad right there. kevin conway joins us live. he is the father of third grader. good morning to you, kevin. >> good morning, steve. how are you? >> doing okay. doing better than you. last tuesday you got a call from your daughter, kate, she had gone through the lunch line. what happened to her? >> yeah. she had gone through the lunch tine and she was refused lunch because my account balance was negative $4. somebody from the district had come in and decided that that
5:25 am
was the best course of action to collect money was to take the lunch right out of my daughter's hands. >> okay. so they took the lunch out of your daughter's hands because she didn't have enough money on her card. what did they do to the lunch? >> threw it away in front of her and her friends. >> i remember what kids are like in grade school. getting humiliated in front of a line of your friends, your peers, that's hard to shake. >> yeah, yeah. luckily my daughter, kate, she's a tough cookie. but what i'd like to kind of reiterate here is that this isn't the school. this was done to our kids by the district and it was done to our school. i fully support our school and our principal and our teachers. what the district did is uncalled for. we trio teach our kids how to be responsible and do the right thing.
5:26 am
we try to build our character. >> i've been reading about what happened there and the lunch lady, shirley, who has been there a long time and you've known her for years, she was -- it sounds like she was simply following orders. i read one account, she had tears in her eyes when she was just following orders. she has since been put on paid leave. you feel she's being made a scapegoat. what's interesting, kevin, is the fact that apparently simultaneously across the district, this was happening, wasn't it? >> yeah. i believe this happened in the past. it's the first time it's happened that i know of at our school. i believe it's happened throughout the district and nobody has spoken up. >> sure. and i understand they changed the system on how you pay for lunch. had you ever been notified in the past, hey, your daughter's account is low? you got to add more to it or anything like that? >> yes, yeah. it used to be we'd get
5:27 am
notifications. it would auto debit our account if we got too low. this year we haven't received anything like that. you have to question why did they switch systems? who benefited from this? >> i think 40 kids at your daughter's school got declined, denied the food, all thrown in the garbage that day. here is the e-mail that you received sent out by your school principal. what happened last tuesday was not standard practice at untah elementary. i'm sincere see sorry that students were humiliated humilid food was wasted. many of you have asked about shirley, the lunch lady, and asked me to share your sympathy and appreciation with her. i spoke with her again last night, as did just that. like you, i'm anxious for the investigation to be completed. so you're on the side of the folks at your school. you think the people, their bosses at the school district h a kookie policy? >> yeah. this is something that was done to the school. not by the school.
5:28 am
it's a flawed policy, if there even is a policy when it comes to negative balances. i've yet to hear anything from the school board or our school board representative. does she have a policy that she hasn't sent out? is she writing a policy or is she trying to cover up a policy that is a failed policy? >> interesting stuff. what would you like to see happen? >> i'd love to see an apology to the kids that this happened to. they know who they are. i'd love to see the district come down and do this. i'd like to find out why the system was changed and i'd like to see the person responsible for this decision be held accountable. not the person that actually carried it out. >> i think a lot of people are looking in saying, absolutely right. we're going to keep track of this. let us know if anything happens out there. >> thank you, i appreciate it. >> joining us from salt lake city. thank you very much. 28 minutes after the top of the hour. next up, president obama blaming fox news for revealing the truth about benghazi.

it's covered by most health plans. this is all for you. >> are you serious? get out of here! >> your super shot of the morning. budweiser paying tribute to an american soldier, an all american soldier in its new commercial, at the super bowl. >> lieutenant chuck nad, army helicopter pilot was chosen in a nationwide contest and got a hometown salute after he returned from afghanistan in winter park, florida. >> wow. earlier on "fox & friends," we spoke to lieutenant nad and his girlfriend, shannon, who nominated him for the ad. >> i was told that i was just coming home to give a quick speech to vfw group in my hometown of winter park, florida. it was more than just a vfw.
5:34 am
>> there were a couple cameras around and they said they were doing a documentary. you had no idea until this week that it was a super bowl ad? >> that's correct. >> what a sweet couple. budweiser gave him tickets to the super bowl to be there with shannon. we saw the live shots of them yesterday. it was so nice to visit with them here on the curvy couch. >> it was great. as it turns out, according to ad week, budweiser started the intention was to make a 30-second commercial, but they were in the editing room and they go, this is so good. if it's only 30, i can't put in the mom, so i put in the mom and i put in the town. fantastic. it's my favorite ad of the whole super bowl. >> it certainly is. many people feel the same way. they were emotional watching it here, even this morning, the lieutenant and shannon. >> let me tell you, you know i'm good at relationships. shannon can never -- how does she top that? let's say they get engaged and get married? >> no pressure! >> thanks for the car. not as good as last year.
5:35 am
not as good as national ad on the super bowl. thanks, honey. good runner up perhaps. >> started off great. >> yeah. we were great during the courtship. now suddenly all i'm getting is gold rings and bracelet. >> a tough act to follow. >> nice. >> if you have relationship problems, write me. >> don't. >> don't. >> just saying. so before the game, before that commercial, bill o'reilly sat down with the president of the united states, as is tradition, whatever network host s the super bowl, they get to have their news people, somebody from the news side ask questions. this year, because of it fox, it was bill o'reilly. once again sitting down with the president. what's interesting is bill pressed him on a number of issues that we all want answers to. this is new, now the president, rather than answering questions, is simply blaming fox news.
5:36 am
>> your detractors believe you did not tell the world it was a terrorist attack because your campaign didn't want that out. that's what they believe. >> and they believe it because folks like you are telling them. i mean, these kinds of things keep on surfacing in part because you and your tv station will promote them. >> so they exist because they're talked about, because questions are asked, not because they exist and that they're scandals? let us know what you think about that. >> i'm wondering, that's what i was trying to get out of joe trippi a great political strategist, is that a good tactic? to go blame somebody, whether it's fox, does he look stronger with his left base if he says oh, it's because you have an ax to grind against me as opposed to answering the questions and trying to win over people who don't watch msnbc. >> he actually said on either side of politic, both sides, when you blame, it does not look like a position of offense. it looks like a position of defense. >> sure. and keep in mind, people on political left regard what bill
5:37 am
asked the president about regarding benghazi and irs as phony scandals. we still haven't gotten really good answers -- it would have been great if bill would have had more time, i'm sure he would have said to the president, by the way, mr. president, where were you exactly the night of benghazi? 'cause that's one of the many questions we never have gotten an answer from the president on and that's the unique thing when you have the president live on the super bowl where you can ask him anything and bill o'reilly did. he's go to have more of the interview with the president tonight on 9 show. >> now, i want to you make heads and tails of this. hillary clinton's tweet in the middle of the game. she did this at hillary clinton, it's so much more fun to watch fox when it's someone else being blitzed and sacked. question, is she talking about peyton manning? is she talking about president obama? >> yes. >> or both? >> i think it's both. it's twofer. >> we asked you what you thought and james from north carolina wrote in, he said, obama hasn't
5:38 am
done anything wrong. the irs hasn't done anything wrong and everyone in his administration are held responsible for their actions. it's all fox news' fault for reporting the truth. >> john says this in his voice, i can only think the president and his advisors, hill spree the democrats, are starting a campaign to discredit fox because people are starting to be concerned about what is going on in our country and where our leaders are trying to take us. >> also here is a tweet -- rather a facebook posting from tammy. at this point, what difference does it make? >> very good. only make it a screeching yell. >> this post from sheila. hillary was not blitzed or sacked, benghazi was and it cost four americans their life and this is not funny. >> another tweet, obama looked unpresidential on o'reilley. must be the lies catching up with him. that's the opinion of a sweep of your opinions on all the different outlets and venues. >> we certainly retweeted a bunch.
5:39 am
sent 52,000. >> hillary clinton's comments were retweeted 52,000 times. >> we are late getting to heather. i blame the weather. >> why not? we're going to blame snow. >> did you have any relationship questions, dr. kilmeade will be able to answer those. >> always got a lot of questions for you, brian. >> absolutely. >> help us out. good morning to you all. hope you're off to a great day. we have exclusive new information this morning about the terror trial of the preacher. remember this guy? we just learned that the star witness against him is another terrorist who now says that he's reformed. according to this morning's new york post, that reformed terrorist had agreed to help richard reid blow up a plane on christmas day in 2001, but had a last-minute change of heart. we'll keep you posted. and then shocking new details about the man who is charged with threatening to kill president george w. bush in hopes of romancing his daughter, barbara.
