we'll enclude them tomorrow night. tonight on huckabee. let's n tonight on "huckabee" -- >> let's not have another 40-something vote to repeal a law that's already helping millions of americans. >> republicans donate have t s numbers to repeal obamacare, but there may be a legal way out. and an american terrorist in pakistan. a possible target for a drone strike. >> when a u.s. citizen goes abroad to wage war against america, his citizenship should no more serve as a shield than a sniper shooting down on an innocent crowd. >> but where do we draw the line? alberto gonzalez responds. plus, a pregnant mother struck by a driver. >> shortly after i woke up, they had told me that i had lost

brady. >> now she's fighting for the rights of all unborn children. ladies and gentlemen, governor mike huckabee! >> thank you! thank you very much! delighted to see this great audience. and welcome to "huckabee," from the fox news studios in new york city. monday, we observed presidents' day, which officially honors all u.s. presidents. but the reason that it's in february is because george washington's birthday is february 22nd. out of all the presidents, why is he called the father of our country? well, he was a military genius, who led this nation, and washington established the structure of the modern presidency from the cabinet to the inaugural address. but the most important thing is what george washington didn't do. some americans would have made washington the king, but he refused royal powers and even

titles like your heinous. he was so popular, he could have become ruler for life, but stuck to president after just two terms. his humble willingness to give up power and transfer it peacefully to his successor was practically unheard of. as i watch the current president, in one power grab after another, as he shreds the constitutional sacred notion of separation of powers, i wonder if he's even aware of just how different his approach to the presidency is. the degree to which barack obama has ignored laws that he doesn't like or agree with and some, like obamacare, that he actually championed, is nothing short of breathtaking. if the republicans propose a delay of obamacare through a bipartisan legislative process, he ridicules them, and reminds them that he won the election. if immigration legislation stalls because of his ineptness in working with congress, he just waves his royal ceptor and implements the dream act. the fact that 34 states voted to

uphold marriage as a relationship between one man and one woman means nothing to president obama. what's more interesting is that in 2008, he declared his opposition to same-sex marriage, because of his christian views and the bible. now, he never mentions his christian view of marriage or the bible. nor does he explain, if he has knowledge of a rewrite of his 2008 bible. so he just declares that same-sex marriage is so good that one has to wonder if he thinks we should all marry someone of the same gender. the founders knew that unchecked power and distance from the people would lead to corruption, arrogance, and indifference. i suspect george washington would also appalled by the growing imperial nature of the presidency, from its celebrity trappings to the power grabs by executive order. it's an typical to everything washington stood for. but it's on the rise through several administrations and now it's rocketed into hyperdrive.

now, i realize i'm courting ridicule by talking about those old dead might disapprove of our cool new ways of doing things, but i happen to think that the constitution they wrote would work a lot better than the reckless arrogance we've got now. you know, we really ought to try using the constitution again some time. presidents' day seems to me like the perfect time to discuss it, since so few children today know even the basic facts about the american system of government. a recent survey of arizona eighth graders found that just 23% knew the house and senate were the two parts of congress. only a quarter knew that the first ten amendments are called the bill of rights. not many more even knew that washington was our first president. and fewer than 30% knew that the supreme law of the land is the constitution. i'm not going to hold that against the kids, since many of our politicians don't seem to know that either. it's one reason that i helped launch a video series for kids called learn our history. i believe that a culture who

doesn't know its history is like an individual who's lost his memory. both result in confusion, disorientation, and darkness. and it would really help to have a president who would at least watch some children's videos to find out what kind of country we've got. i'll even send him some, so he can watch them. u.s. military leaders and intelligence officials are considering taking out an american al qaeda suspect in pakistan by a drone strike. the final decision on whether or not to go ahead with the strike would be up to the president. but where do we draw the line between protecting americans and making sure that the fundamental rights of an american citizen, even bad ones, are protected? joining me is former u.s. attorney general alberto gonzalez, who's now with a national-based law firm, waller. and mr. attorney general and judge, it's great to have you here and thank you so much for

joining me today. >> thank you, governor, good to be with you and your audience. >> let me first of all get right to the heart of this idea of drone strikes. it's one thing, a little troubling, to just take out a person on foreign soil. but should americans be worried that a president might order a drone strike on someone, an american citizen, in america, on american soil? >> well, that's a very different hypothetical than what's going on currently. and i hope we never get to that point, where we need to use our military to deal with threats here in this country, through drone strikes. you know, the question -- i listened to president obama's comment about the fact that a person's -- being a citizen should not be a shield. if he's waging war against the united states. the problem we have, however, is that it's the president and the president alone who's making a determination that that person is, in fact, waging war against the united states. in other words, is an enemy

combatant, and therefore, force can be used against that individual. so as an american citizen, you're entitled to certain due process rights. and to have that power reside solely within the executive, that's the danger. now, once there's been an appropriate determination that someone is an enemy combatant, than the president can truly take them out, because they are a threat to the interest of the united states, but as an american citizen, you are entitled to certain due process rights. and the fact that that power resides solely within the executive, i think that's something that people should be concerned about. >> is there an application here, where a person who says they're against the united states, even though they're still an american citizen, they don't give up those rights, do they, at that point? >> well, no, of course, we've got a first amendment that allows you to criticize, you can criticize the government, do certain things against the government. it's only, from my perspective, only after you become operational that, in fact, you would qualify as an enemy combatant, someone who's waging war against the united states,

someone providing active support, others engage in war against the united states. but, again, that determination, today, resides solely within the executive branch. and if you're talking about the rights of an american citizen, what i would worry about is where the supreme court would come out on this. i would walk into the oval office, and would have walked into the oval office and advised president bush if someone like al lockheed, was, in fact, an enemy combatant. but i would have been cautious and told him, based upon my observation of supreme court precedent, since the war on terror began, i don't think there are five votes in the court that would agree that the executive courts has the sole authority to designate an american citizen as an enemy combatant based on the president's sole authority. >> so what checks and balances should we have in place, so the president just doesn't decide, i think we ought to take this guy out. that scares the daylights out of me. doesn't matter whether it's barack obama, george bush, or some future president that within the white house, a

decision would solely be made without any adjudication process. nothing, just a decision made, this person deserves to be killed. what checks and balances should we put in place? >> well, we already know from the obama administration that the process that they use in designating an american citizen as an enemy combatant is one that takes months. so if they're spending that amount of time in making this decision, then it seems to me that they have sufficient time to provide additional checks and balances. for example, they could provide some kind of advocate, who could argue on behalf of interest of the american citizen. congress could pass a law that would a law that would provide guidelines as to when an american citizen can be targeted by a drone for killing. and so, perhaps reporting, requiring that the president report these actions immediately before and immediately after, consistent with national security. but, again, there are things that congress could do, there are things the president could

do on his own in terms of establishing clear guidelines through executive order, for example. so whatever can be done to provide some check on the executive, i think, is a benefit. and would go, to some degree, in meeting the due process requirements afforded to american citizens. >> judge, thank you very much, your perspective is very helpful and valuable and thanks very much for being with us and offering that perspective today. >> thank you, governor. >> i do appreciate the perspective of the former attorney general and judge. look, i do think it's quite important that americans take a real hard, honest look. we want to protect ourselves against terrorism, but we also want to protect ourselves against a government that doesn't hold itself accountable and responsible to anybody. and the thought that the government could go and target anybody, i don't care who it is, without due process, scares the living daylights out of me. and i don't care what party's in power, i don't care who the president is. no one individual should have the power to make a

life-and-death decision, until that has been thoroughly adjudicated. yes, the system and process is messy, cumbersome, and sometimes frustrating, but god help us if we ever get to the place in this country where we don't continue being what we were established to be, a nation of laws. that's what's most important. well, coming up, oklahoma congressman james langford with his proposal on how to beat obamacare. we'll be right back. stay with us. if you want to comment on tonight's show and share with me your thoughts, i welcome your response. go to my website, mikehuckabee.com. you can kconnect with me on facebook, sign up to follow my regular messages on twitter, or leave comments ton feedback session of mikehuckabee.com. didn't come with a warning. today his doctor has him on a bayer aspirin regimen to help reduce the risk of another one. if you've had a heart attack, be sure to talk to your doctor before you begin an aspirin regimen. if you've had a heart attack, be sure to talk to your doctor why do people count on sunsweet pruneit's made only from prunes, the inothing else.

come up with a legal way to opt out. this week, he introduced a bill which would switch the power over decision making in health care from the federal government to individual states. it's called a health care compact. oklahoma congressman james langford joins me now. congressman, an innovative idea that you've come up with and i want to hear about it. thanks for being here. >> you bet. glad i was able to help. this is actually eight different states have done this. this is typical from most of our great ideas, they come out of the states. eight states have already said they want to do this. they've asked the federal government for permission to be able to come back and say, okay, we want to control our own health care, will you allow us? as odd as that may sound, this, mother, may i experiment comes out of article i, section 310 of the constitution that allows states to do compacts, make agreements between states. there are about 300 agreements like this that have been made between states. most of the times it's on water

rights or whatever it may be. this would be specifically health care. that the states say, we want the ability to make all the health care decisions in our state. this would free them of obamacare, s-chip, those federal dollars would come to the state, and the state can make the decision how best to take care of their people. the best thing, the states that want to do it can do it. other states that say they like their obamacare, they can keep their obamacare. >> i'm sure there are a whole lot of states that would love to follow that idea. like your doctor, you can keep them. like your obamacare, go ahead and keep it. so far, there are not many members of the american public believing that. let's talk about the operational details. how does this work? did the states enter the compact? do they have to get the permission of congress? do both houses of congress have to give them the go ahead for the compact? >> they do, actually. the constitution stuff is very specific on how a compact is done. that compact is an agreement with two or more states. then they pass that on to

congress. congress approves that and is able to send it back and it's done. the key thing is the states make the initial agreements. the good thing is, eight states have already done that. texas, oklahoma, utah, indiana, georgia, south carolina, alabama have already said, give it to us, give us that authority. we want to make those decisions. and it comes back to, who is better about making decisions about the most important things in your life? you, your family, individuals around your hospital, or those in washington, d.c.? we believe the local leadership and families make those best decisions. that's between doctors and patients, not some bureaucrat in washington, d.c.. >> well, that would be better than an obama exemption, passing on to businesses as he sees fit. let's talk about the practical realities. what's the likelihood that you're going to get -- through the house, that's going to happen. >> do you not think harry reid will be excited about this idea, giving states more flexibility.

>> somehow you know a different harry reid than the one i'm watching up there, congressman. >> i don't, actually. i think we'll have overwhelming support in the house, because states are already requesting this. we're fulfilling it. the states have picked up the phone and asked if anyone in washington, d.c. will answer the phone. this is us officially answering the phone and saying, yes, we do want to give that authority back to those states. now the key is to be able to communicate that to the american people and for those individuals to see it and for the supreme court -- not the supreme court, but -- they think they're the supreme court, but for the senate to be able to say, this is a decision that needs to be made. now, here's the interesting thing about it is, i come from a christian world view in a biblical perspective. in daniel, chapter 1, daniel, they ask permission, they say, let us try a different way of doing this and see if it doesn't turn out better. i'm trying to apply that same principle to say, allow these eight states to try it and see if it doesn't work better. >> i think the audience here

certainly likes it. let's suppose the senate changes hands. i think we both realize, in order for this to happen, the compact to be approved, the senate would have to turn to a republican majority and put harry reid in the back of the room instead of controlling the calendar. does the president have to sign or sign off on the compact for it to be respected? >> there is some dispute on that actually. most of the compacts are a legislative branch only. this has the dollars. it block grants all those dollars. medicare, medicaid, s-chip, and all the obamacare dollars back to the states, and says to them, you design your own system. we'll have to work that out in the process of it. for me, it's important for me to get it out early and to say to states, we do trust you to be able to make these decisions. states already do medicaid. a lot of people don't know that. medicaid is already run by the state. there's already a health care authority in every state. this would just give that state greater flexibility to take care of a larger group of people. and for anyone who says, the states can't do better than the federal government, i would point them to a website, i would point them to medicare fraud, i

would point them to medical equipment fraud. you're telling me the federal government's doing a great job of this? i would say, let's let the states try. >> i think it's a brilliant idea, and especially i like it, because it's consistent with the tenth amendment that says if it's not in the constitution, then according to the constitution out of the bill of rights, it should be left with the states. and there's nothing in the constitution that says the federal government ought to decide our doctors and insurance companies. i think you're on to something, congressman. and i hope a lot more states than the first eight will be joining you and it becomes a national movement. thanks so much for joining us to give us some insight. >> thanks, governor, thank you. >> congressman james langford of oklahoma. the arab voice for donald duck is a complete quack. my reaction to the quotes of the week is coming up next. ole garden's st 2 for $25 yet is endinsoon!

big big controversy this week, and caught all in it was donald duck. yeah, the man who provides the voice in the arabic translation for disney's donald duck in the mideast has been fired after an offensive tweet against israel. he insists he has no problem with jews, he's just not a fan of israel. well, judge for yourself. here's his tweet. he says, i truly wish israel is demolished. i hate zionism. i have to much hate inside me. last week, he followed that up by saying that he's proud he was fired because of his earlier tweet. he claimed that israelis were just a bunch of polish, oo ethiopian immigrants roughly 70 years old. and he wonders why he got fired? it's a wonder that he's still around. interesting, i think donald duck can do better. in fact, a donald duck quacking would do better than that. good riddance, should we all

say. well, according to supreme court justice clarence thomas, the only african-american who's on the court, race relations in america are worse now than they were during the days of segregation. here's what he told a group of college students at palm beach atlantic university. he said, and i quote, to my knowledge, i was the first black kid in savannah, georgia, to go to a white school. rarely did the issue of race come up. now, name a day, it doesn't come up. differences in race, differences in sex. somebody doesn't look at you right, somebody says something. everybody is sensitive. if i would have been as sensitive as that in the '60s, i would still be in savannah. i appreciate the justice for being blunt and clear. i do think we've come a long way in race relations in this country. i did grow up in the south during the jim crow days. never would want to go back to that. god forgive us for some of the ways that people treated other people during the early parts of american history.

but let's acknowledge that there's been a lot of progress and it doesn't help us to make everything about race, even when it has nothing to do with race. that's moving backwards. well, joe biden is back. the vice president addressed a conference of house democrats, and as usual, he had something to say, well, he probably shouldn't have quite said it like this. >> it always surprises me when we don't have the degree of optimism we should about the state of the nation. and in spite of who's president. >> what? joe, did you hear -- did i get that right? what did you say? >> in spite of who's president. >> i thought that's what you said. for once, joe, i agree with you. i wonder if they monitored that in the white house and heard when he said, "in spite of who's president." joe, let me break something to

you, it was that guy, that president that iappointed you twice to be vice president. i'm sure he's thinking that the country might be able to go on, in spite of who's vice president too. oh, but wait, wait, because in the same speech, biden also made this claim. >> there isn't a republican party. i wish there were. i wish there was a republican party. i wish there was one person you could sit across the table from, make a deal, make a compromise, and know when you got up from that table, it was done. that's what political parties -- that's what nancy's able to do. that's what the president's able to commit to. but all you had to look at the response of the state of the union. what were there, three or four? no, i'm not being facetious. so i think maybe we should just get a little focused here. >> yeah, we need to get focused all right, joe. there are many different views within the republican party, and i will sometimes i admire the democrats for being almost just

unilateral if their ability to say one thing, even if they don't mean it. i just wish that not only would you say one thing, but keep one thing. you pass a law, then you ignore it. you push something down the american people's throats like obamaca obamacare, then change it 29 times. i'm not sure what's worse, have many opinions in the republican party or having one opinion in the democratic party that can't be considered worth a tinker's toot. that would be my concern as well. well, when is an unborn child considered a person? coming up, a mother whose unborn son was killed in a drunk driving crash. she's fighting to change the law to protect an unborn child from crimes, instead of a baby being treated as if it didn't even exist. people will want to see this. we'll be right back. s cell healh plays a key role throughout our lives. one a day women's 50+ is a complete multivitamin designed for women's health concerns as we age. with 7 antioxidants to support cell health. one a day women's 50+.

going on, when i able to talk to them, and they were like, well, brady was killed in the accident. so then we had the cops came in and they would tell me all the charges that he was facing, and i was like, well, what about brady? well, colorado law says because he did not take a breath, he was not considered a person, so therefore he was a considered a part of my injuries and there wasn't an additional charge for him. >> you know, i think this is shocking to most people, they would just assume that if the unborn child is killed, and in your case, he's eight months along, this is your last doctor's checkup when you were going, but he was not considered a person. >> right. >> were you shocked by that? >> i was really shocked. and i wouldn't have known unless, you know, until this had happened, i had no idea that that's how colorado law was. >> now you're pushing for an amendment to the colorado constitution that would make it so that if you injure an unborn child, you can be charged for the injury to the child as well as to the injury of the mother. >> right. >> talk about the importance of this to you, heather.

>> the brady amendment is so important to me. there has been other mothers that this has happened to. in colorado, specifically, as well as, you know, nationwide, of course. but knowing that when this amendment passes and i'm pretty sure that it will -- i really have faith that it's going to pass. when it passes, it's going to mean a world of difference to me, because now people can get the justice, and there will be two victims instead of just like one like there was in my accident. >> i'm curious, who could be against this? who would be opposed to recognizing your situation and situations like it? >> right. >> who's against it? >> there's the pro-abortion lobbyists are against us. >> but this is not about abortion. >> it's not. >> this is about whether you have respect for the fact that you've carried a child, you've protected, you've loved, taken this child to the doctor, done all the prenatal care, and someone takes that child from you, and if that child was -- if it was another day, and he was out of your womb, it would be

murder. >> one hour. if he would have been in my car for one hour, born for one hour, it would have been murder. but for the fact that he did not take a breath, colorado law says he didn't -- it wasn't a person, he wasn't a person. >> and the person who was the drunk driver, he got charged only with assault to you. >> right. and so my mother and -- she was in the car with me, and my 5-year-old son was in the car too. so he got three charges instead of just the one. >> did he go to prison? >> he committed suicide before he got sentenced. >> you know, it's a horrible story, all the way through. you know, i just find it so important to help people know, how many states -- are you aware of how many states have something like a brady amendment? >> there is 38 other states that have a similar law, like the brady amendment, a fetal homicide law, 38 other states. >> what's the prospect of this passing in colorado? >> it's pretty good.

i think there's a lot of people, when we were out gathering signatures, there was a lot of people that had no idea that this really does happen and that we need to, you know, change it. so i think that now that people are aware and just getting more and more people say ware, i think we've got a really good chance to get it on the books this year. >> heather, nothing is ever going to bring brady back, but if this passes in colorado, would you feel like there's a sense of closure, at least something to honor his life? >> i think that this whole journey that i'm on right now, being, you know, from the beginning, from the accident, up until the ballot time, it's all my closure. just knowing that i'm doing something that's going to help protect the voiceless, and to be a voice for brady, and that's all that i'm set out to be, is a voice for brady and an advocate for other pregnant women in colorado that this can happen to. >> you're a remarkably brave and

articulate spokesman for your son. i thank you so much. and i hope that you'll let us know. we'll be watching this, because i'm anxious to see how this turns out in colorado. heather, thank you so much for being here. >> thank you very much. >> god bless you. >> thank you. in my home state of arkansas, we have a law similar to what heather is fighting for in colorado. it's called a fetal protection act. one of the law's strongest supporters, former state senator bill walker will join me next to talk about it. we'll be right back.

before the break, we heard from heather. she's hoping the death of her unborn son leads to a law to protect all unborn children in colorado. former arkansas state senator bill walker, a democratic on the public health, welfare, and labor committee cast the deciding vote for the fetal protection act, a law that i signed. it was crucial in the case of 23-year-old shwana pace who was severely beaten and lost her daughter the very day before she was to be born. bill walker joins me now from little rock. senator, it's great to see you again and thanks for being here. >> thank you, governor. thank you. good to see you as well. >> i remember, you were the deciding vote in passage of the fetal protection act. laws like these that protect women and their children, i think they're important. obviously, back in 1992, you made a courageous vote and took a courageous stand. why did you think that was important then? >> well, it was important then, as it is now, and i should say, governor, if you don't permit me

to, with i would like to let heather know that, you know, we are praying for her and her family and the loss of her unborn child. you know, there's just no excuse for it. and in some ways, i would like to brag on your leadership and the state of arkansas, because we took, as you characterized it, a courageous move. but it was the right thing to do. it wasn't about party affiliation or anything other than what was the right thing to do to protect our children. and i hope that colorado will follow that leadership and do whatever is necessary to be sure that incidents like this are dealt with and in the way that prosecutors have the appropriate tools, that they need to be able to pursue this. the issue that i think is really, really important, and i hope that the colorado folks pay close attention to is that beyond the fact that this was intentionally, a dui in many cases, according to lawyers, is not necessarily an intentional crime, but it's a result of a

crime, if you will. and we want to be sure that the colorado amendment covered that type of crime as we. the worst thing that could happen would be to go through this amendment, and then another child is hit by a driver, and that amendment not cover it. and it to be sure, because when i looked at it, it appeared to have intentional, intentional harm. and that was not the case in a dui case, from my understanding of it, anyway. >> you know, one of the things that i so appreciated what you did, you took the stand. frankly, as you will recall, it's one of the things that i think bonded a relationship that you and i continue to have. because i so respected your courage. you didn't do that because you were a democrat, you didn't do that -- it had nothing to do with politics. it had to do with a personal experience that you felt was an important one, and it wasn't long after that, that this case happened, shawana pace and her

daughter, heaven. i have to believe, senator, that you felt an extraordinary sense of vindication and validation for the stand you took, courageous as it was, when that very law just shortly thereafter, was applied to these thugs that killed that baby. >> yes, sir. and to that point, i will say to you, some of the biggest opposition you met from members of our own party, i'll never forget the day that the chair of that committee called me after that was publicized and said, listen, bill, you were right and i was wrong. so i'm glad you pushed for that. so he, himself, i think evolved to see the merit of what it was we were doing and the reason for what we were doing. and how it was so important to protect human life. and so, you know, it was a vindication. i hate that we had to have something like that to occur for us to be vindicated, but it is important we protect our children at every stage of life. >> i want to say thank you, again, not just for being here, but for the political courage

that you did and continued to show. still consider you a very dear friend and thanks so much for being here today. >> thanks, governor. thank you. >> always a pleasure. coming up, one of the hottest young christian rock bands in the country, building 429 is here to perform their brand-new hit. bands are here to perform their brand new hit. ♪ ...so you say men are superior drivers? yeah? then how'd i get this...

all in the next factor. your life >> this past week president obama held a state dinner for the socialist president of france. that's the first french head of state since 1976. in honor of him his 75 percent income tax proposal went over like fried apple fritters in a paris cafe. president obama says he couldn't tell the difference between france and england and their relationship. so much for what has been considered the special relationship with the brits. i have been visiting israel regularly since my first visit as a teen some 41 years ago. i am going to be taking 282 people seeing first hand the land of the bible and also one of the most amazing modern success stories in people over coming great obstacles to establish a free and independent state where people can prosper and drive.

we have historically had a unique alliance with the israelis. in part because the democracies of our countries mirror each other. in part because we have bilaterally fought for personal freedom since human rights. under the current administration the attitude has been to kick israel to the curb and try to exalt the palestinians as peace makers. this is embarrassing and stupid. we look like duff if you say -- duffuses. we ask them to give up their land and their security. we ask of the palestinians of nothing. it might help to stop putting material in the textbooks as to how good it is to kill jews. our bungling of syria may proven their -- made putin their protectors and politics toward egypt cost us an ally and given putin their partner. putin has a gold medal if this were the olympics and we will be lucky to come out with a
