with kathleen willie. you can see it, we just tweeted it out. our interview with brit hume. what will it be next week? whwhwhwhwhwhwhwhwhwhwhwhwhwhwhw. i'm megynkelly, this is the kelly file. welcome to hannity. tonight we have a jam packed edition of the show. america, are you ready? stewart, dana are in the house, let's roll. this hbo documentary will break your heart and make your blood boil. >> i want to go to college, i want to have a good life. >> i'll explain why it has me yelling at the tv this very morning. >> president roosevelt passed away this morning due to natural causes. >> jimmy kimmel proves once again americans don't know much.
10:01 pm
>> he was a good man, and i am sad to hear of his passing. jimmy fallon makes his "tonight show" debut. >> i'm jimmy fallon and i'll be your host for now. >> is he better than leno? ainsley earhart hit the streets to find out. >> are you excited about him hosting? >> i do like his show? >> better than leno? >> yes. >> hannity starts right now. >> i was home watching hbo, i came across a documentary called american winner. chronicling people living in oregon and the struggles they are facing. >> i hear them in bed sometimes saying we skipped dinner because we need to feed our kids. sometimes when i hear that, i
10:02 pm
cry. >> i want to go do college, i want to be able to have a good life. it makes me worry, how am i going to be successful? how am i going to be able to provide for my family? i worry about that every day? >> those stories are heart wrenching, as the film went on, i found myself screaming at the television like you liberals do me, because the only solutions they offer to fix the problem, the same old liberal talking points. let me give you an example. >> if capitalism is not regulated or checked, there's a harsh logic and it will always seek out the lowest costs, highest return. we've reduced taxes, and now people are more vulnerable. my job is to communicate to people the absolute moral imperative during these times of using public resources to maintain the safety net. >> there's a shred of truth to
10:03 pm
the idea that the richer the rich got, the better everyone else would be, and the more jobs we would see. everyone would be drowning in jobs. it's absolutely not true. >> the united states of decline, america unravels at an increasingly dizzying pace. also the co-host of the five, dana perino. let me explain this film. i'm sitting here, we know the statistics, we have 50 million americans on food stamps, a labor participation rate, the lowest level since 1978, i'm watching this film and i seymours with kids going into shelters because that's where they have to stay. i see a young couple lose their job, they don't have -- they lose their electricity. they finally get it put on because of assistance, they're putting the light on and off because they're so happy. something is wrong in this america where the numbers, the
10:04 pm
92 million and 50 million, every person, every light, all those suffering, and i argue, dana, needlessly, we can do better. >> certainly we can do better. in any system, in a capitalist system, you are going to have people who don't make as much as others, depending on work. the thing that bothered me is the child who said he's anguished and worries every day how he will provide for his own family, which is 20 years down the road. the financial insecurity people are feeling is permeating all the way down to someone who is 10 or 11 years old. you shouldn't worry about things like that when you're that will age. >> we don't drill on government land. leases are down 50%. how many jobs could we create tomorrow, stewart? >> if you liberate the energy resources that america has under its -- under our own turf, you liberate that, you produce real economic growth and you go a long way toward changing the
10:05 pm
mood of america. president obama has fundamentally shifted the mood of america, and the kind of society we are. we have become collectivists. it's not your fault if you're down in the dumps, you need government help. we are collectivists. that's what we've become. it's only a short term thing, you could reverse this very quickly, with real economic growth. >> let me just -- we can't drill, and we have more energy than the entire middle east combined. because he reduced leases 50%. government sub sid i dids creates a disincentive for hiring to the tune of $3 opini3 million jobs. maybe you're right, maybe -- are we in decline? is this country declining? >> when i wrote this article, i sat down and came up with one example after another after another and got depressed as i wrote this article, but i found lots of evidence of how we're sliding downward. we used to be in the top three
10:06 pm
for economic growth. we see things slowing down, it's completely unnecessary. we are the number one corporate tax in the world. if we were to cut our corporate taxes 25%, a lot of companies would pack up and leave the united states and stay here. we eliminate the corporate tax, money would pour into this country. i watched this clip and it looked like a campaign clip for obama '08 or something. >> both stewart and dana are both very good friends of mine, and both ganged up on me last week, i'm mad at the republicans. i want to read the last paragraph, the american people have been betrayed both by obama, the democrats, whose lust for control intensifies every day, and republican leaders whose cowardice and defeatism has turned their guts and spines into tapioca, which is great writing, by the way. >> thank you. great flair. >> i'm mad the republicans aren't doing anything. both of you thought i was wrong
10:07 pm
that they didn't fight -- >> no, they are doing something. >> help me. >> they are positioning themselves to win back the senate in 2014 so they can attack some of these issues. >> the debt limit -- >> it was always going to be raised. the republicans are actually being smart. >> a health line and exchange? >> from obama? >> i don't think so. >> what i would have done is i would have added one amendment. said the bailout a 47 billion dollar bailout of the health insurance companies would be taken out, in exchange for that, we could increase the debt limit. maybe obama signs it, maybe he doesn't. let's make the democrats vote on this. they want to stand in front of the american public and say, we don't want to raise the debt limit. >> all i want to do is -- make that argument. >> we're in a rotten place right now. >> we're in a rotten place right now. i want to win politically. politics is the only way to
10:08 pm
change america. >> listen, maybe you're right and i'm wrong, i'm not saying i have all the answers. i want to inspire a republican party that offers bold colored differences and i'm not seeing that. >> if you lose senate seats in kentucky and maybe another one, if you think can you win arkansas but you end up not winning it, you don't even have a -- you don't have a chance of the republicans taking back the senate. what that vote did was actually put further pressure on mitch mcconnell, unnecessarily, we're spending money to defend mitch mcconnell in kentucky, when we should be spending that money in red states that we can win. >> ultimately it may turn out harry reid says, we can win this way. but for god sakes, two or three days they can stand up, argue this, educate people -- maybe in the end -- >> just two weeks ago, people on the far right, the pundits were saying, even actually the liberal pundits were saying, this is not the time to do immigration, republicans should focus like a laser beam on obama
10:09 pm
care. as soon as they make the decision to do that, they're ridiculed the following day -- >> is part of the problem the american people. i'm watching jimmy kimmel the other night, kimmel goes on the streets to think what people thought about fdr's recent death. watch this? >> president roosevelt died this morning, do you have anything to say to his widow eleanor? >> wow! truly sorry for your loss. that's a great book for the history right there. >> what achievement do you think he'll be remembered for the most? the louisiana purchase or -- >> the louisiana purchase. >> did you follow his jokes on twitter? >> yeah, he's a funny guy. >> do you think it cheapened the oval office when he made that brief cameo in the movie "pearl harbor"? >> no, it may have put more focus on washington, d.c.. >> was it weird how slap stick his role was, falling out of the
10:10 pm
wheelchair? >> no, i think that adds to that, makes it seem like he has a sense of humor? >> you say you don't think it's real? >> how many interviews did they do and pull out -- >> they could have done that 15 years ago or 40 years ago. >> jaly leno did jay walking fo many years, same kind of thing. >> i think there are many people that are oblivious. >> i think we're wealthy enough that we don't have to know those things. we're not at each other's throats like they are in the ukraine. >> it's not the fault of the american people, it's the fault of leadership. >> you know how many times i've asked them who the vice president is, they don't know? >> are you blaming america? you're blaming the americans? >> i'm blaming some people, they have a civic responsibility to know who the vice president is. >> you know what's going on in your society. >> leaders, please.
10:11 pm

10:15 pm
and obama's legacy. take a look at this. >> it isn't as if the only alternative was the monsterous stimulus versus nothing. he could have had tax cuts and deregulation, instead it was a gift to all kinds of democratic constituencies many and as a result, all this many spent, fdr left behind the hoover dam. ike left behind the interstate highway system. this thing as predicted hasn't left a trace in the sand. >> here with reaction and much more, dick morris, a roid yo talk show host in philly. how are you? >> good to be here. >> you have to love this line, except the ruins of the solyndra plan the. you talks a lot about getting bill clinton back to the center, and try angulation you're known for. i watch obama, and he always seems to cling to his cad
10:16 pm
callism, he doesn't seem to have that flexibility or practicality or pragmatism of bill clinton. is this going to be his legacy? stubborn radicalism? >> yes, i think it is. you either believe he's a total incompetent, who could not bring jobs back and could not get the economy moving or you believe his efforts are malicious. i believe that obama is attempting to transform america from an employment based society to an entitlement based society. he's trying to take people from working for a living, spending long hours, advancing to waiting to open the mail for the new entitlement check. >> the thing is, when 50 million americans didn't work, the son of stimulus didn't work, we have the lowest labor participation
10:17 pm
rate in -- since 1978 and 50 million americans on food stamps. >> i'm saying it worked. his goal in signing 15 million more americans on food staps, 10 million more on medicaid, 8 million more on unemployment insurance was precisely to make them dependent and fashion a permanent democratic political majority by making them dependent upon the government for their livelihood. >> this is what he wants? that's the transformation of america? >> i was talking today with my radio show with casey mull began, the economist who did a great service in pointing this out. he said, it's just like this in europe, where people say, i'm not going to work, because the benefits are too good. i'm not going to work the extra hours, because i'll lose money, i'll lose eligibility. the only issue is why it took americans so long to get around to this. >> i guess the question is, from
10:18 pm
my perspective, this is a disaster, i look at the republicans and they are afraid of their own shadow, and they just wrote him a blank check. >> well, it's fortunate that it doesn't work. it's fortunate that not only is it moving the country in the wrong direction, but it doesn't work. had he just did the economy and the entitlements, i think we could never defeat him. he would have had a stranglehold on this country because of the entitlements. >> you think obama care did in his agenda? >> i think it flat out not working is overriding the other aspects of his agenda. >> he didn't fail, sean. this guy succeeded. >> it was always his intention, you think he purposely wanted to hurt the country? >> two parties -- >> transform to a dependency
10:19 pm
society. he's happy there's 50 million americans on welfare? he's happy about that? >> exactly, it's why he put them there, it's why he opened the rolls to encourage them. in europe, you have a two party system, no matter what they're called. the party that represents the tax paying workers and the party that represents the tax eaters, be they republican employees or welfare or students or pensionists, that's the two party system in europe. he sees it in those terms, and his goal in expanding these entitlements is to create that. >> all right. i got to take a break. coming up, you get to turn the tables on me and ask you any question you want. dagan is back with her ask sean. and tomorrow is a big day for the u.s. men's hockey team in sochi. what we can expect from two players of the miracle on ice team. who do people like more, jay or fallin. ♪

>> almost a billion, that's right. >> why won't the republicans in washington take that same tough stand like you did? >> well, we need to stand up and help them make that part of this election, and tell them about solutions not just what's wrong with the other side. we can't just be against obama care, we would tell them what we would do to bump into the debt ceiling and make sure we can repeal obama care, something we've talked about, real solutions, that would get america back on track again. >> i started this thing, i wrote conservative solutions, caucus 2014 and on there, the penny plan, balance budget amendment, secure the borders, health care savings accounts, energy which would create millions of jobs for americans. i don't hear anybody in the washington republican establishment out there with that vision, solutions you call them, and tell people what they do, so is that a -- that's safe strategy, is that a good strategy going into an election? >> i don't think so. i wrote about my book that i
10:47 pm
thought people who win elections in battleground states, the so-called people in the center don't want conservatives to move to the center, they want us to lead. the way you get to voters who elected not only me in 2012, but turned around and voted for barack obama, in 2012 as well, were people who want more than anybody, the leadership, and as conservatives, we have great ideas. why don't we want to go out there and lead with them? >> you're singing my tune here, i -- why? what i don't understand is, you put it all on the line, you've benefited. not only does your state have nearly a billion dollar surplus, your name is bandied about quite a bit, maybe you may get into the 2016 presidential race, season the that because you took a stand and led and didn't back down from a fight? isn't that what's missing now? >> absolutely. in fact, i -- you know, i'm flattered when people bring things like that up, it's not because of some great speech or youtube video, it's because we went out and led, that's what people are hungry for. particularly in times of
10:48 pm
economic and fiscal crisis like this nation faces today. i think that's why in america, the republicans who are doing well are governors, not just me in wisconsin, but other governors, look at rick scott in florida. the unemployment rate is down 5%. >> and look at governor -- we had governor perry on the program last week, he's going to have a 15 billion there's budget surplus in the state of texas, pretty amazing. so let me ask you -- and i don't want to put words in your mouth, i want to be fair, i use adjectives to describe republicans in washington. >> i think it's a fair comparison. if we want to win in 2014 and win in the future after that, we have to be optimistic and visionary. whether it's the governor, the united states senate house of representative. we have to speak in terms that are relevant to real people. not just about sequesters and fiscal cliffs.
10:49 pm
talk about real terms, people can relate to it, we have the courage to act on it. that's why republican governors are acting all around the country right now. we can get the senate back. >> if item number one, that i think would unite, remember brave heart, unite us, unite us. william wallace, do you think -- republicans said, we're going to stop robbing from our kids and cut one penny out of every dollar and make sure we balance our budget, isn't that something we should unite behind? >> there's no doubt about it, what do people care about more than anything? they care about their kids and grandkids. people talk about, what's the third rail of medicaid, medicare? no, what people care about, even retirees care about, my parents, they care about their grandkids, my two boys are in college, their two granddaughters who are in first and fourth grade, they care more about them than anything in the world. and if they knew that this is
10:50 pm
the future they're going to inherit a debt that's a bigger personal debt than the mortgage they're going to ever pay on the largest home they bought. they would not want that for their grandchildren. they don't move forward. they want to hear conservative solution that's work. >> right. they have a $1 billion surplus z you nearly got thrown out of office for that. >> thank you, sean. appreciate. >> you can go to my web site and see what real solutions are so we can get america back on track and create jobs putting america back to work a special part of my web site z coming up next, tonight... >> to my buddy who said i'd never be the host of "the tonight show" you owe me $100, buddy. you do. >> and jimmy fallon made his dab yut last night as host of "tonight show". and ainsley
