their distance from the president. ladies and gentlemen, governor mike huckabee. (applause) thank you. thank you very much. and welcome to huckabee from the fox news studios in new york city. i want to tell you something, i have been to a lot of places this week. i spoke to a large nonprofit group in carne, nebraska and met people from my home church-going to israel with me. and i participated in a conference call of political activist and spoke to a annual meeting in the commerce in kansas. and i spoke to figures who have been harassed by the government

in ways that are nothing short of political persecution. i met several thousand people in the country and i come to the conclusion that something is troubling to people no matter where they live. a lot of americans are concerned about the country and many expressed an outright fear of their own government. in a government by the people and for the people this should not be a time when the people are afraid of the government. no the government needs to be afraid of them. (applause) when people talk about the dangers of big government most fail to explain why it is a problem. so let me try. when government is so big that it strikes fear in the people it is simply too big. too much power it is concentrated in too few and a government that frightens the citizen in a desired behavior

are worse. and a deafening silence is corrupt. our founders foreed a government that would centralize the government in a level. they had it limited and local in nature and to insure that there was no misunderstanding that the federal government limited to just a few matters such as protecting our borders and defending against military enivations and faa sillitating free commerce and a mended the stugsz to include the 10th amendment. anything that was not specifically spelled out in the constitution it was supposed to be left to the states to decide. by the way, democrats and republicans a like acted with reckless regard. and the result is a government so big that the people are a trade of it. a government that destroys a person's livelihood by regulations so expensive to keep

and staying in business is not practical and a government that monitors our e-mails and phone calls and a government that uses military- like force and battering rams to swoop in on weapon's drawn at unarmed worker ares in a guitar company because they were suspected of using the wrong type of wood and targeting officials with accusations and leak evidence to the media and even if the charges are later drop that official is ruined not only politically but sometimes financially. and a government so big it openly lies to us about how or why four americans were murdered in a state department compound. and a dpft that attempts to crush a group of nuns whose sole purpose to help elderly people and use the power of the nonelected bureaucracies like irs to crush political

opponents. we must boldly declare as citizens, we have had enough. we need to systemically begin the process to dismantle the monster of federal power and return it to the states and counties and cities and ultimately to the families of america. the abuse of power must stop. we the people, should not be afraid of our government. my friend, the government needs to be afraid of us. (applause) on super bowl sunday the president told fox's bill o'rielly there is not a smidgeon of corruption when it comes to the irs targeting of conservative groups. newly obtained e-mails show that former irs executive lois lerner

consphired to place restrictions on conservative nonprofits and meanwhile the department justice attorney in charged of investigating the scandal contributed nearly 7,000 to obama campaigns over the last ten years. on thursday, kathleen englebrett who appeared on this show twice and the face of the targeting scandal testified before the house and subcommittee and took questions from ohio congressman jim jordan. >> in your first 20 years of business did the irs ever audit you. >> no, sir. once you foiled the application were you audited? >> many times. >> did the fbi ever visit you. >> once you filed the application did you get visited? >> six times. >> they want us to believe it is a coincidence. >> cleda mitchell joins me now. it is a pleasure to have you

back on the show and thank you for being here to help put light on the amazing story. i want to begin with this. president obama made a statement that there is not a smidgeon of evidence indicating corruption. where i come from. smidgeon means a little bitty bit. and he said basically there is not any. is it the truth? >> no, it is not the truth. last summer he declared the irs scandal to be a phony scandal and done everything he can to divert attention from what really has been going on and it is still going on in the irs. and governor, i have to tell you, i think the administration is afraid of the people and because they were afraid of the people rising up as they did in 2010 to fight obama care and to fight spiralling out of control spending, i think they are afraid will happen in 2014 and

that's why they are trying to silence the political opposition all over the country. >> (applause) >> you talked to the department of justice yesterday. did you get an indication that they are beginning to see the light on this? can you tell us what they told you? >> we didn't talk about a lot of things. i asked a lot of questions. they want to talk about through the vote and talk about another couple of my clients and one of the things that is worrisome to me, is that it is taking them so long and i said to them. you know, i have been publicly critical that you have just now got ep around to talking to me and you have talked to none of the witnesses and the groups around the country and their response is that we do things in our own order. one of the things that worries me is that the civil right's division is involved in this

investigation. the civil rights division of the justice department. and governor, i don't know if you are aware, but the person who is just named as the nominee to headivil right's division is somebody who led an international crusade to free a cop killer from philadelphia and have his sentence commuted. and the person who was the former head of the justice department was castigated by the justice department own inspector general a year ago this month that found political ideology was forming the basis of many decisions in the division of civil rights and that's who wants to talk to me now. -- i never had a problem with the office of public integrity on behalf of clients, but remember that lawyers from the office of public integrity that

were sanked by the federal court when it was learned that things they had done against former senator ted stephens constituted proscan youitorial misconduct. i think it is time for a special independent counsel to be appointed so we can perhaps have confidence that the criminal actions that have taken place will be investigated and pursued. >> cleta, i want to bring in to focus, a lot of people assumed when it was exposed and obvious they were targeting the conservative groups and pro-life groups and pro jewish groups it would stop. has the targeting and harrassment stopped or is it still going on. >> it is still going on, governor. in fact, last august, remember the treasury inspector for tax administration report that confirm approximate ed that

there was targeting of the conservative reports and that came out in may 2013. and the irs sent more -- letters to conservative groups and asking for further information and further questions and questions which i believe they asked and answered several types before. one of the groups that i represent got tax exempt status in 20133 and half years after applying and another group. tea party patriots still did not receive tax exempt status after more than three years. >> what does it take to resolve this? and finally bring it to a halt? >> i think we have to get the irs out of the process altogether number one. and i think that we have to -- we have to have, i don't think

we should have to ask the federal government mother may i, before we function as a nonprofit exempt organization. i think we ought to get them out of the process altogether. and number two, make certain that the irs is never able to use political contribution information for purposes of defining who gets audited and i think that is what they are doing. and number three, we should have organization that repeals the irs on on on{who the donors are. >> thank you so much. most poll cisions up for reelection would normally soak the help of a sitting president in their own party. so why are the congressional democrats with their careers on the line breaking away from the president. we'll find out when i take the

>> why are many democrats distancing himself from president obama and his policies. we'll ask chris and former chief of staff to west virginia and senator joe mafrnin. >> we start with you. september democrats, a lot up for reelection and not many of them in hotly contested races are excited about the president campaigning for them. is it obvious to the democrats as to the rest of us?

>> no. there are tactics using campaigns and when you ran for president you distanced yourself from president bush at types and i respected that. and you won on local issues and talk about washington and touting the culture of washington. and i don't seeing that being an issue and republicans and democrats have done it a like. >> stove, i don't ever remember when they didn't want to be photographed with a sitting president. even though there are differences. i didn't mind that. that was a common thing and the president raised funds for the reelection. that was not a problem and i don't see the democrats wanting him to come in and do a platform shot and run down the ramp of a force one on him. and i am reading this is mary landrieu.

i stay focused on the issues that are important to louisiana. when he is for louisiana i am. and she lined up with him on obama care and said it was going to be great and now distancing herself. is there a concerted effort to stay away from president obama in their own state? >> it is a calculation that every campaign has to make. when we did the west virginia race, that is a tough state for the president to put it bluntly. and i will tell you there were positions when governor manchin was with the democrats and the president but others he was different in terms. >> the gun issue and rifle. that was a great ad. >> so i think each campaign has to make the decision of how to distinguish themselves totally from the president but obviously with the republicans.

and if we generalize or simplify it too easily we miss the bigger picture. this is what happened in the governor's race. terry mccull louve did events with the president and still won. you decide where the president is useful. michigan it might be a tough senate race and he might be useful and new hampshire and north carolina. in other states. louisiana probably not as useful to help bring out the vote. >> mark begish? if he wants to come up. i am not interested in him campaigning but i want to show him his policies are not the right direction. that doesn't sound like a ringing endorsement. >> this is a reflection. there was a six year itch in american politics that happen to president bush and happen to president obama and the incumbent president suffers

a degree of certain losses. >> steve, if you were advising your -- not your candidate and new jersey is different. but if you advise landrou, would you have the president in for a public opor stay away. >> no, i think that it comes to dollars and cents. the president is a fundraiser and he can be an important ally in a race to retain control of the united states senate and win back the house. you can't discount that alone. the president is a big boy, he understands when and where he's welcome and he knows one thing important to him is winning. so all of this aside and all of the talk if you want to be on the tarmac when the president arrives is not relevant as much as the money raised.

the opening ceremonies for the sochi olympics was a celebration of russian patriotism. paying tribute to the space program and a shout out of the good old days of communism. a full rich recounting of russian history. except they left the part about stalin murdering several million people and i think i could understand that. and another white washed olympics and hope that the

private businesses that pay honor to their convictions. like hobby lobby that don't want to pay for abortion drugs. mr. president, i can't wait to hear your speech for praising hobby lobby and little sisters of the poor and others who have convictions that are in keeping for what they believe. for nearly 40 years, saturday night live is been entertaining us with political satire. and according to the show's creator lauren michaels, members of one party are more thin- skinned than the other. this is what loren michaels said. republicans are easier for us than democrats. democrats tend to take it personally and republicans think it is funny. i once appeared on saturday night live and i had a great time. were they making fun of me. of course, it is the point. it is it a comedy show.

i am grateful for loren michaels for telling the truth. the fact is republicans have a good sense of humor. and i find it is the democrats that typically get overly sensitive about everything and anything. they can't take a joke. they can't take a punch. and always offended and want someone to for everything. let me join loren michaels and say to the democrats, lighten up guys, take god more seriously and take yourself less seriously. that would be my advice. and so why would the academy that originally nominated a song for a oscar drop it from consideration. is it religious demonstration. the story and sippinger is next. ♪

original song from a faith- based film. johnnie ericsop is a singer and inspirational author and speaker that is quad plegic when she dove in shallow water. she is the author of the untold story. johnnie, great to have you on the show. >> thank you, governor. >> you have got a lot of unexpected attention when you recorded the song in your mind you will record the song and you did it and it gets nominated for an oscar and they pull the nomination. what is this roller coast ride been like? >> i am not a professional singer. i am a disability adskroicate and we take wheelchairs to disabled children and i don't sing professionally like taylor swift or amy grant. and so you can imagine when the

prousers asked me to sing the movie theme, i was blown away. but i filled my lungs with air and my husband was in the recording study and pushed on the abdomen and so i could hit the high notes. >> your husband who has been with us before was literally helping to push your abdomen and so you would have the wind and song. and the video records that and the fact that a miracle song in itself miraculously nominated for an oscar and then pulled. do you think that maybe the song was yanked from consideration because it was faith- based? you have to wonder if that was the cause? >> well, first let me say, a lot of people in the academy must have liked the sopping because they nominated it over 75 other themes from other movies and that is saying something.

but looking at all that is happening governor. i think that hollywood thinks a low- budget small christian film may not be or perhaps shouldn't be elevated to the status of the global stage of the oscars. is that shunning cries. i can't say. but it sends a sad message to christian and independent film makers as well. >> you know, i think about the song. it is getting attention it would not have received otherwise. and the film is getting attention. is this a moment jaupy like when joseph's brothers threw him in the well and they intended it for harm and in genesis 50 but god used it for good. is that what is happening with the song and film as well? >> i think so. i think of my own experience in recording it.

it is a little like all of the other examples of the bible. how god delighted to pick the ill equipped and nonprofessional to get it down sow the world would know that god had done it. and i think the controversy perhaps focused more attention on the song than if that remained a nomination. i think that is awesome. over three- quarter of a million hits on a youtube video and that showed me praying in the end and asking for god for strength. that is a great witness. >> it is also a great song and thank you for being here. to tell us about it. i want to tell our audience something. i want them to go to itunes and down load the song. there would be nothing more powerful than if everyone who watched the show. everybody. let's go down load johnnie's song and make it the number one

little town of arkansas that no one had ever heard of. now, i watched with my family on the black and white tv that got our signal off of the antenna all the way from shreveport, louisiana. and that night, when i saw those four guys from liverpool, i thought, i need to get a guitar and i'll become the fifth beatle. now, it would be three years of begging my parents for an electric guitar before i'd ever get one and it was a sacrifice for my parents. they ordered one from the jcpenney catalog, paid a little bit of money each month for a year before they covered the cost of the guitar. but that guitar changed my life and the beatles changed the world. they came just at the right time. our nation was in a deep funk after the murder of our young and visionary president. race riots turning major cities in battlegrounds as horrible things were happening to civil rights leaders who right fully demanded that all americans be given justice and freedom.
