"fox and friends" begins right now. hey, good morning, everyone. welcome to "fox and friends on this sunday morning. >> hi, mike, welcome. >> philadelphia could be the second snowiest record. >> well, if this one model holds true tonight, tomorrow when you see steve sitting in this place you'll see snow behind him. philadelphia may get 12 to 14 inches of snow.
3:02 am
>> oh. >> the second snowiest winter of -- since the 1880s. >> we finally just got rid of it, right. >> it just melted. >> anna and i are celebrating because coming up anna and i went to an ice skating rink yesterday. >> you played hockey? >> we played hockey? >> pond hockey. >> i was absolutely terrible but anna takes a classic spill. >> and i have a bruise to prove it i think on my -- >> we'll show you that later. >> a great shot. >> we've got this story because we begin with a fox news alert. president obama reaching out to russian president vladimir putin in a 90-minute phone call. have you ever had a 90-minute phone call. >> with anyone. >> urging him to deescalate tensions in ukraine. russian troops continue to move through ukraine's crimea region. peter is live in washington with the latest. good morning, peter. >> good morning. the latest news from moscow is that russian troops are still moving aggressively into ukraine and president putin has permission from russian
3:03 am
parliament to send in some more. this comes as the russian border guard service now says that they have counted at least 675,000 people fleeing ukraine for russia in the last two months because of what the russians describe as a humanitarian catastrophe. we know president obama's principle advisors got together yesterday to discuss the latest developments and national security adviser susan rice later briefed him on the takeaways from that meeting. president obama also spoke separately on saturday to french president hollande and canadian prime minister harper and the white house tells us those leaders all agreed ukraine's sovereignty must be respected by the russians. the leaders all agreed to remain united but also to work within the limits of international law to figure out how to keep ukraine democratic and stable. and that echos what the u.s. ambassador to the u.n. samantha powers said at an emergency meeting of the security council
3:04 am
yesterday. >> we are deeply disturbed by reports this morning of russian military intervention into crimea. this intervention is without legal basis and, indeed, violates russia's commitment to protect the sovereignty, territorial integrity and independence of ukraine. it is time for the russian intervention in ukraine to end. >> and now ukraine says they're worried about their nuclear assets. the latest wires have ukraine's parliament begging for international monitors to come in and help them keep their nuclear materials safe. ukraine has already called up all of its military reserves and officials are stressing that those military forces need to be battle ready as soon as possible. >> back to you. peter doocy live in d.c., thanks, pete. so the question this morning, does the u.s. have any influence right now over that region? can we have any sort of strong arm tactics that would work against vladimir putin, taking a page from the rule book i guess is what president george w. bush
3:05 am
did in 2008, almost the exact same thing when he tried to move -- when they moved into georgia which was okay, we're going to put some warships over there, have some economic sanctions what can we do? none of it really worked. >> in the 90-minute phone call you wonder exactly what was said. former u.s. ambassador john bolten to the united nations basically said vladimir putin has the upper hand in all this, both in domestic affairs and economic affairs that essentially he has all the high cards here and that the president doesn't understand how important really the ukraine is. that there's untapped agricultural potential there, there's 50 million people, they're a strong player in central european affairs but thinks the president doesn't understand this. take a listen. >> i think it's all going in vladimir putin's direction at this point. you know, i think he's got a plan a and a plan b and all of these actions you're seeing, the deployment of russian military
3:06 am
forces, the exercises in the central military district and the rest are consistent with both plans. plan a, i think putin is following, he thinks he can re-establish russian over ukraine, i mean by that over the whole country. palestine plan b, if that fails, break up crimea. we don't have a plan. >> what could the plan possibly be? i mean this all goes back to 1994, of course, when russia and the united states made this agreement in budapest that says ukraine will be a sovereign nation and absolute just ignoring what, you know, the russians signed in 1994. so what do you do about it? wouldn't it be nice if we had the missile system that was planned for poland to be right there? that would help, wouldn't it? >> maybe to protect the united states' interests in the region. perhaps the intercontinental ballistic missiles, shoot them down should it escalate to that.
3:07 am
no one is saying we're entering this new cold war again, but remember the president ats the time in his discussion at that open mike moment with president medvedev. >> wait until i get elected and i will more space to negotiate with you. >> do you recall this moment? >> . >> and medvedev said i'll take that to mr. putin so we'll remove this. there are other questions yesterday, kt mcfarland on our air asking what would ronald reagan have done in that moment. remember poland wanted that missile system put in poland because they are not -- they did not want russian aggression against poland. that's what poland wanted. we went with what the russians wanted and agreed to vladimir putin's terms. >> march of last year. >> yeah. >> not to go any further with the missile program in poland. >> here's what k.t. mcfarland
3:08 am
said. what would ronald reagan have done in that moment? take a listen. >> he will go down to poland and the czech republic and say we're going to rebuild that missile show that made the russians so nervous. i think he would go to the germans and other europeans say we have a natural ability to export gas to you. you don't need to buy from the russians. the other thing, i would go to vladimir putin and say guess what, if oil goes be ♪ $100 a barrel you don't make payroll and we're going to start fracking and drive that price of oil down 20% and you will be in big trouble. >> okay. >> use the economic weapon. >> president reagan won the cold war not with arms, not with tanks and missiles, he won the cold war by building not the weapons, but economics. they need high oil prices to continue to operate. without high oil prices those guys are on the streets with a tin cup. >> obama administration officials say the reason we gave up that missile shield because now we have russia at the table
3:09 am
against iran. that's why we have inspectors in iran in dismantling their arsenal. they would not have come to the table without the shield. >> they say that, the increased stuff from north korea for technology difficulties and budget reasons and had nothing to do with russia. >> vladimir putin is kind of eating our lunch right now. >> yeah. >> who in the world is standing up to him? >> the other threat, you guys don't get the olympics. >> wait. >> too late for that. >> he's got that. there's really nothing that the international community can really -- >> that torch went out. >> right after the torch went out. >> yeah. we will be following this all morning on "fox and friends." other stories making headlines. rescue crews are searching for the pilot of a navy fighter jet that crashed during a training exercise in nevada. the sa-18 hornet went down near the air station in fallon east of rene no. crews are having a tough time reaching the crash site because of the remote location.
3:10 am
the cause is under investigation. heavy snow making for complete chaos in denver and a denver interstate there. one person is dead and 30 others injured in a pileup involving over 100 vehicles. drivers say the slick roadways created an unstoppable chain reaction. >> i felt like that windshield would have kept caving in if i kept getting out. i got out dazed and a lady next to me her windo was halfway rolled down and screaming to everybody, get back in your car. >> it took about five hours to clear the highway. all lanes have since reopened. and some terrifying moments inside a las vegas grocery store. 26 people including two children hurt after an 88-year-old woman plowed her full-sized truck right into the food for less. the truck crashed through the glass, front doors, hitting shoppers and employees before finally coming to a stop near the back of the store. at last check one person still in critical condition. police are investigating exactly

3:18 am
the health insurance that i had for my small business was canceled and i had a wonderful plan and it meter eer every ne had and as a physician i know what is needed but it was canceled and the letter i received from the insurance company put the blame on the affordable care act. no further explanation but that's what they said. >> you were going to be a part of the network? now you're excluded from the network itself some. >> i am still in their main network which takes care of large corporations, federal employees and so forth, but for the new plan they rolled out for small businesses as well as those plans on the affordable care act, i was excluded as were many of my colleagues. >> but i know your face. you testified before congress. >> i did, yes. >> what did -- they didn't listen to you? >> i think they listened to me and there were two other physicians with me and we made very clear points and i think the purpose of us being there was to advise them that we saw there were certain issues that clearly were problematic that were going to get in the way and
3:19 am
hamper patients reaching the doctors that they needed to reach to be admitted to the hospitals that they needed to be admitted -- >> the advocates say it's affordable for everybody, low price. >> that's a big mistake. i think more truth needs to be told about that. there ares choices. you a choice of having a lower premium, but then you have a very high deductible. if you a higher premium you have a lower dedoesn'tble. i don't think the general public understands what deductibles are. >> the average joe will have a hard time navigating through the website? >> not only the website but even if they have one of the navigators that were paid to help them, i'm not sure they're going to have the time to go through the explanations with them. >> have you noticed anything changing, anything getting better and how do you feel about harry reid calling you a liar? >> well, i hope he didn't call me a liar. but he, perhaps, had some misinformation given to him because the stories are certainly real. i have lost patients in my practice because of that and those patients are having a hard
3:20 am
time finding doctors to take them because their practices are already full. see, the networks have been made so narrow to keep the price down for the insurance companies. >> yeah. i think you're right too. people don't understand the deductible prices and some of the prices for the medications. stabilization medications in your field. >> right. >> thank you, doctor, for being here. >> thank you so much for having me. >> coming up, a young woman vanishes without a trace, nearly three years ago. now do investigators finally have a break in this case of a missing nursing student. her name is holley. >> and three parents to make one baby. it's a controversial technique ta may prevent certain genetic conditions but should we be playing god some say. a fair and balanced debate. [ woman ] i've always tried to see things from the best angle i could.
3:21 am
it's how i look at life. especially now that i live with a higher risk of stroke due to afib, a type of irregular heartbeat not caused by a heart valve problem. i was taking warfarin but wondered, could i focus on something better?
3:22 am
my doctor told me about eliquis for three important reasons. one, in a clinical trial eliquis was proven to reduce the risk of stroke better than warfarin. two, eliquis had less major bleeding than warfarin. and three, unlike warfarin there's no routine blood testing. [ male announcer ] don't stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. eliquis can cause serious, and in rare cases, fatal bleeding. don't take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. while taking eliquis you may bruise more easily and it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding like unusual bruising. eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. those three important reasons are why i'm shooting for something better. eliquis. [ male announcer ] ask your doctor today if eliquis is right for you.

3:25 am
that combines dna from three parents instead of two parents. the benefits, could help eliminate genetic diseases. is it opening the door to a demand for designer baby as some are calling them. joining me for a fair and balanced debate. the president of the council for fair and responsible genetics and dr. jeffrey steinburg. dr. steinburg, i want to start with you, why do you think we need to do this and do this right now? >> we understand that what we're doing is we're replacing a small typographical error that some human beings carry that causes horrible diseases in their children and it's not their fault. they're born with it or it develops. what we're doing for the first time is we're curing this process. so i think that this needs to be available and i think we also need to be cautious about what we're calling it. there's ns there not three pare
3:26 am
involved. >> the question is designer babies is the crux of the argument. where do you come down op this? why shouldn't we do this right no now. >> we shouldn't do this for two reasons. one, it's not proven safe. the research is really at a basic level. in fact, the fda panel itself unans mussily found that a lot more research is required to deem it safe before it has begun to be used in human clinical trials and secondly we need a robust public debate to see where the public and policymakers weigh in on whether we're ready to enter a world of genetically engineered children and where we draw the line. we're not having that debate and moving forward without it. >> dr. steinberg, jeremy brings up a good point, the animal tests that have been completed. there have not been according to some of the doctors enough tests done on humans yet or any tests done on humans from animal tests to be concluded this is safe. where do you come down on that? >> the thing that we want to do is we want to begin clinical
3:27 am
trials and a clinical trial is an ex. we fully understand that and been cautious in everything done genetically. the animal trials have all been highly satisfactory. the animals have been cured. we want to move on to the next step, the fda is being very cautious as they always have been and it's time to move on because there are people dying every single day from these diseases. not only that, they're going to pass these diseases on generation after generation after generation. >> which is exactly why we need to be careful, because if we don't get this right, if the techniques are not safe, then we could be creating new abnormalities we are passing down generation to generation to generation. make no mistake, we are not curing people who currently suffer mitochondrial disease. we're allowing woman who want to have their genetically related offspring to have children that are ostensibly free of mitochondrial free -- see.ree of mitochondrial
3:28 am
there is no push to carry out anything -- >> the doctors had about four monkeys where that -- i can't imagine anybody in the viewing public would think that four monkeys is enough to move forward with human clinical trials. that is testing this technique on human beings. we need to make sure -- >> sir, you're on the outside looking in. you're on the outside looking in. you have no medical experience no medical background, you have no ethical background. the fda did not stop the -- >> hold on, jerry. go ahead. >> go ahead and respond. >> the fda had a -- thank you. the fda had a very extensive hearing about this. they reviewed the medical literature. the british have done the same and are more thorough in their investigation. the british have given the okay to begin clinical trials. the first babies from this technique will be born in 2015. >> first of all, let me say this, the fda panel when they looked at this unanimously found
3:29 am
that a lot more work needs to be done before it is termed safe. 30 people sat on that fda package. >> that's what's going to be done. >> a lot more work needs to be done. basic research before the clinical trials that this doctor is talking about needs to be done. secondly in the uk referred to, their process requires an act of parliament which means that it will not go forward. >> the uk has approved the therapy. you're absolutely wrong. >> we will have you guys both back. >> approved the therapy and the pro is is beginning. >> wrong. >> thank you. a very interesting and impassioned debate this morning. we'll have both of you back to continue the discussion on "fox & friends." thank you for your time. >> thank you. >> let us know how you feel about this. weigh in on fox and friends, ff weekend on facebook and find me on twitter as well. an avalanche taking out a neighborhood. how did everyone make it out alive of that? she learned to skate from an olympic champion apolo ohno. now anna and i put those skills to the test in ice hockey and

3:49 am
work? >> well, to go through the nlrb and they have to hear the case. what we're trying to do is intervene and to make sure that at that hearing on march the 7th, that we're there with our side being heard, as opposed to just the uaw's side being heard. >> so do you feel like, oh, my gosh, here we go all over again? you have to put up with the national appeals process? >> you kind of feel that way. i tell you, ever since the team members at the plant have heard that the -- that they filed with the nlrb to have a potential revote, people are coming out of the woodwork. they are wanting to help now. you know, there was a core group of us fighting and naturally 712 voted, but now, we've got a big, strong support group that's going to help us and so we're very excited about what's happening. >> real quickly, why don't you want to unionize? >> i tell you what, voek wagon

4:01 am
tonight's oscars. let me just tell you something. come close. mornings are better with friends. you make that so creepy. >> it was a little creepy, wasn't it? >> mike jerrick is theory from philadelphia. we start with a fox news alert. ukraine's new prime minister saying his country is on the brink of disaster, telling russian president vladimir putin to pull back his troops. >> well, president obama -- >> urging. >> urging the same thing. in a phone call with putin. but this morning, russian troops continue to move through ukraine's crimea region. >> president obama warned putin during than hour and a half-long phone call yesterday, that
4:02 am
russia risks negatively impacting their standing in the international community if they continue sending forces into ukraine. but all indications this morning are that russian forces continue to move into ukraine, justifying their aggression by saying that ultra-nationals within ukraine are threatening russians. in the last hour, we got word that ukraine has now officially shut down its air space to all non-civilian aircraft. they're trying, basically, to isolate russian forces in the crimean peninsula. at the united nations, yesterday, the ukrainian ambassador called victor yan cueovich crazy. >> this intervention is without legal basis and violated russia's commitment to protect the sovereignty, territorial
4:03 am
integrity, and independence of ukraine. it is time for the russian intervention in ukraine to end. >> the president's national security team had a meeting at the white house yesterday to talk about potential policy options. after the meeting, susan rice briefed president obama on what his advisers came up with. right now in the ukraine, all military reserves have been called up and officials in ukraine are making sure that all those reserves are ready to fight. back to you. >> crisis situation. all right, peter doocy, thanks so much for us. let's bring in fox news senior military analyst, colonel oliver north. nice to have you on the show this morning and get your perspective on this. colonel, right now it seems like we have the crimea president saying, come in, we want you here. you've got a lot of support there in that region for russia. and of course with, you have th ukrainian president saying, get out. what do we do? >> let's back up just a second here. last week, in fact, last sunday i said that putin was going to act as soon as the sochi
4:04 am
olympics were over. and even before the torch went out, he sent an intelligence collection ship to havana harbor and put more intelligence technicians into the lord's signal intelligence site, which has been there since the 1960s. obama is now saying that we're going to continue to coordinate with our nato allies and see what they can come up with. here's what's going to happen. they are going to have a big wow wow. they're waiting until monday to start it. that means nothing is going to happen, because it doesn't mean anything to putin. he is committed to reconstitute a newer, better version of his evil empire. the video and photos that peter just showed is are very clearly that russian troops were the first in there, then their naval infantry, their marine corps, and they now control crimea. all the key ports, naval facilities, airports, communications hubs, and they have to, because putin isn't going to give up sbast poole,
4:05 am
russia's major warm water port. t tartas in syria is why putin wouldn't give up syria. neither the u.s. or europeans have any real options. look it, seven pipelines out of eleven run from russia through ukraine. so if all putin wants to do to stop the europeans from doing something, shut off the oil and gas in the middle of winter and threaten sanctions. that means you're going to end with the americans losing their northern access to afghanistan. this is czechoslovakia, 1938, the munich conference. all it lacks is neville chamberlain, telling us, we've got peace for our time. >> what is putin afraid of? that ukraine will join the eu, or god forbid, nato in his mind. what is the end game for him? >> well, remember, we missed the opportunity. we, collectively, the europeans
4:06 am
and obama administration of making member of nato. we should have invited them to do so. they're a, quote, partner, which means nothing under the nato collective forces act. putin knows we only have two carriers at sea. one in the indian ocean, and the other off the atlantic coast. remember the other day in the budget talks. he said, we have 11 carriers, we don't. we only have 10 and only two are actually deployed. putin with closegistw jigistics impose real sanctions to all of us that the chinese and iranians are watching this feeble response as we're gutting our defenses and they're planning their own next moves. it's not a good picture. >> colonel, we know that president obama and president putin spoke on the phone for about an hour and a half. do you think president obama understands the gravity of the situation and how important ukraine really is? >> no.
4:07 am
in fact, i don't think that they recognize that this is a foretaste of what's to come if we continue the path that we're on for unilateral disarmament. we've got to stop battering our allies, like israel with the lunacy of trading land for peace. we need to build the xl pipeline, which our canadian allies want us to do and the obama administration can't figure out how to do it. if the iranians close the straights of hormuz next week, the price of oil is going to go through the roof and the economy is going to grind to a halt. all of these are the kinds of things that when america decides, a, we're not going to lead, and b, we're going to destroy the opportunity to deter this kind of action with a strong military. we no longer have that military. >> colonel, you remember president george w. bush going through something similar when russia moved against georgia, the country of georgia. but it seemed like limited options on the table for president bush at the time, and even russia didn't adhere to the cease-fire agreement that ended
4:08 am
up being put in place. so it seemed like president obama was taking a page from that playbook here, but it seems anemic. what can we really do? >> well, this is a page not only from that playbook, but it's also a playbook that jimmy carter wrote back in the '70s. because when the russians invaded afghanistan, carter was shocked and surprised. it's a page out of the playbook, as i say, of 1938 with czechoslovakia, when the europeans decided -- didn't even invite the czechs into the conference. made them wait outside for the results of it, which basically said, adolf hitler, go ahead and annex check slozechoslovakiczec. that's what's going to happen here. >> would things be different if we had that missile defense system in poland right now? >> absolutely right. the missile defense system that this administration shut down, carefully negotiated over years for the bush administration, protecting not just us in the homeland, but our european ally. they're looking at that and saying, the russians are modernizing their nuclear
4:09 am
forces, their delivery systems, and we're not even defending our population centers, neither are the americans. you've got to wonder, what is it that this administration wants to do? >> you know, i think your point is well taken, colonel. that modernizing a new form of russia under vladimir putin and moving against these different regions, you're absolutely right about that. corn, fascinating perspective this morning. thanks so much for joining us, as always. >> i wish it was better news, but it's not. >> fluid situation. let us know as things develop throughout the mornings. we have other news making headlines on your sunday morning. rescue crews are searching for the fighter of a fighter jet that crashed during a training exercise in nevada. the hornet went down east of reno. crews are having a tough time reaching the crash site because of the remote location. chaos in denver, colorado, on an interstate there. heavy snow causing whiteout

4:16 am
to be 5% reduction in housing allowances, military retirees and active duty family members are going to be paying more deductibles and copays. a 1% cap on pay raises, and shrinking the army from 522,000 soldiers, between 440,000 and 450,000. also, the commissaries, i know, are going to be seeing some cuts, and there's a potential for an increase in your grocery bill, for $3,000. how does that make you feel? >> well, i'll tell you what. it does affect my family, but from what i hear from our readers over at military.com's spouse buzz blog, these cuts, we know they have to have. we know we're drawing down force, but we really just hope that people who are making these decisions remember that there are people who are being affected by them, that there are people who are shopping at that grocery store, who are paying those mortgage bills or the rent bill, and that this stuff does directly affect our pocketbooks. and we hope they remember the
4:17 am
little guy. >> well, and the other issue, right, is your husband, and therefore, you, your family. you got into this with some promises that were made to you, and now you kind of feel like the rug is being pulled out from under you? >> sure. so when you join the military, there's an understanding that you're going to be compensated in a certain way. and what i'm hearing from my readers is that these things are now broken promises. that when you start taking away the commissary benefit, when you start raising the cost of health care, these things are considered nonmonetary compensation. and when you start taking them away, you're basically breaking promises that people feel were made when they joined. >> well, amy, i want to get your thoughts on this too, because a friend of fox news channel, medal of honor recipient, dakota meyer, was on justice last night and he had this to say about recruitment problems because of this. >> i think when the government does this, they also sit here
4:18 am
and they break a lot of promises that they had to. men and women who raise their right hand to go over and willing to give their life for their country and sacrifice, but they also, you know, they did it for opportunities. and now you're telling us they have to get out? if it's not a stable job, why would people want to come in? you know, you look -- we just fought this war for 12 years with 0.45% of the nation. i mean, these men and women, you know, came out and did this for us, and we're sitting here telling them, you know, we're going to stop your salary. we're not going to increase your salary. we're going to sit here and make you get out, force retirement. what's going on? >> amy, what are your thoughts on that? are we going to have issues now, trying to get men and women to want to serve? >> you know, the military does need people who are willing to come in for a few years, do their four years, and then want to get out. but the military also needs people who are willing to make it a career. and what i'm hearing from our readers is that when you start making them take the brunt of
4:19 am
congressional actions or cutting the budget through the d.o.d. or reducing these benefits in ways that sometimes feel arbitrary to them, they are less and less interested in making the military a career. that's what i'm hearing from our readers. >> all right, amy, we are going to be finding out a lot more on tuesday and we would welcome your thoughts once we get more details. thanks for your time today. >> thanks for having me. 19 minutes after the hour. the mayor of seattle sending a heartfelt statement mourning the death of a fellow city official. one problem -- he isn't dead! and from the people who brought you the epic tv mini series "the bible," "son of god" is hitting the big screen this weekend. father morris gives his review, coming up.

4:25 am
film, it works. and ten years ago to the weekend, "the passion of the christ" came out. this came out -- this movie came out on friday, beat expectations. the industry had suggested maybe $7.2 million. it's now grossed $9.4 million on a friday. it's going to have a good weekend. it beat "the lego movie." and so -- >> hollywood has learned that the bible kind of sells. >> it does, as long as it's done, as i mentioned, that form la with the faith-filled producers and super good talent. you can't just put jesus on the screen and have him make money for you. >> it must be difficult to play jesus. >> no pressure, you know, of the character. it's not like you're playing indian jones, right? >> i think they did a very good job with it. some people are going to like it, some people won't, but that's okay, it's a film. it's not the bible itself. it's a piece of art. what i have found people have been putting on on my twitter and facebook, people have said,
4:26 am
they've come out with tears from the theater, and very different reasons than they were coming out with tears from the passion. it's more like they've encountered jesus and telling the whole story of his life. >> this is the first time since the 1960s with "the greatest story ever told," because it's such a smash hit already, it appears, finishing number two at the box office already, what's that say about our culture? do we want more jesus in our life? >> i think there's a lot of people who want to know what this thing is that we call faith, and what the bible is. and this story is being told on the screen in a way it hasn't been told in a long time. i think we have another clip that's very interesting as well. >> him walking on water? >> let's take a look. >> i've forgiven myself. >> i thought only god could do that. >> which is easier, to say his sins or forgiven or to say he can get up and walk. >> it's a hard thing to show the humanity of christ, the humanity of jesus, as well as his
4:27 am
divinity. and i think it shows, it has that kind of mystical element to it, but also, he's a man's man. he's not kind of a hokey character. i think they did a very, very good job. >> it just seems like, it kind of gives you hope. a lot of people feel like they're lost and looking for answers. >> i agree, mike. when i watched it, and i have mentioned this in writing, that it felt like my mother reading the children's bible to me, before going to bed, like she used to do. because you get pictures in your head of what jesus actually was like. and they've done that for millions of people. i recommend it highly. >> thanks, guys. coming up tonight is hollywood's biggest night. but first, the best of the worst. the winner of the razzzies. the raspberry awards, that's next, the worst films. and, talk about, father of the year, a different kind of father, this dad building an amazing winter playground in his background. look at this!

4:33 am
worst picture of the year, i don't even know what this movie is. >> that's something i don't care for the razzies. "movie 43." >> what is that? >> a collection of a bunch of different comedy skits featuring holly berry and some different actors and they're really short skits and apparently not funny and just terrible. >> how about this? the worst actor goes to -- this is sad. this makes me sad too, the kid, jaden smith gets worst actor for "after earth." >> i like this. worst actress, a man. tyler perry in "a madea christmas." >> you always liked him, they kind of embraced these razzies, and have a good sense of humor about it. i have to imagine he's
4:34 am
probably -- >> tyler perry doesn't care. he is so rich. >> he doesn't care. >> yeah, i like that when they embrace it, like sandra bullock did in 2003 or something, she came up and actually accepts the award. >> i think ben affleck was really upset about "gigli." here's the worst supporting actor, will smith. he got worst supporting actor. and kim kardashian, did you know she was in tyler perry's "temptation" movie. she got worst supporting actress. >> not the best year for tyler perry for the razzies, apparently. >> she should be on every worst list, no matter what the category. >> all right. let's check in with rick -- >> the worst weather. >> it can be pretty. >> kim kardashian would take that award if she did the weather. >> can you imagine her as a meteorologist, rick? >> no, i can't.
4:35 am
but i can imagine some stations giving her a job doing it, let's be honest. >> that's true, that's true. i know. but we have some snow to talk about. mike, you've been saying that phillies had a little bit of snow. you're at your third snowiest season ever. and maybe tomorrow you'll be right back up into the second place. but your fourth snowiest year wasn't that long ago. it was only four seasons ago, where you had almost 80 inches of snow. so you should remember that. here's your forecast for your day today across the northeast. take a look, as the day moves on. we're going to see that snow flying across ohio and throughout pennsylvania and then we'll see some rain showers down across parts of virginia. that will turn more into snow later on in the night, and we're going to see some heavier snow across the central appalachians. that will be the bull's-eye for the heaviest of the snow. down across the southeast, we'll see some severe weather in eastern texas and parts of louisiana. i think mostly some strong winds and some hail. not a big tornado threat today.
4:36 am
but you'll also notice that icing across areas of the deep south. pretty heavy icing across southern missouri into that ohio river valley. that's where we'll probably see some pretty significant power outages. but to the north of that, temps remaining bitterly cold. out across the west, today is kind of the um kaing down day across southern california and into arizona. we'll see that rain taper off by tonight, but we'll still see the action across northern california and into the pacific northwest. all right, guys. back to you inside. >> thank you, rick. we have some other stories making headlines this sunday. we'll begin with a fox news alert. we are learning hundreds of unidentified gunman are surrounding a military base in ukraine's crimea region. this comes as the country's new prime minister is now saying the country is on the brink of disaster, urging russian president vladimir bputin to pul back his troops. on a 90-minute phone call, p president obama asked him to de-escalate tensions in ukraine. at least 130 people are dead
4:37 am
and 130 are injured at a mass stabbing at a train station in yunnan, china. they were attacking people with knives and machetes. terrible. state media called the stabbing a planned terrorist attack. police shot and killed four of the assailants and are hunting down the others. knife attacks are not uncommon in china, as the country has some of the strictest gun restrictions in the world. and typically, no one hears their own eulogy, but one seattle official just got to experience it. jim dyer says he was in the middle of a busy day when he started getting condolence messages about his own death. turns out the office of the seattle mayor, ed murray, issued a news release about dyer's passing. dyer took to his facebook page writing, "i'm dead? tired today, but otherwise i
4:38 am
feel great. thank you for your concern, but i don't have any time for death." the mayor's office mistook diers name with another official who actuallied that died. >> i think that's worse than people thinking jimmie johnson was at the daytona 500 because of the replay and rain delay. >> every week, there's one person or celebrity that fake dies on the internet. that was his turn. we're talking about the fallout and controversy over harry reid's comments, of course. we heard all of those comments coming out of harry reid on the senate floor, talking about those victims who were appearing in those videos, those republican videos. >> about obamacare. >> and whether or not they were real victims or just liars. well, look back at some of harry reid's other comments, because some people are fired up about some other things he's been saying. take a look. >> i believe, myself, that the secretary of state, secretary of defense, and you have to make
4:39 am
your own decision to the president, this war is lost. >> but if you could help one child who has cancer, why wouldn't you do it? >> why would we want to do that? i have 1,100 people at nellis air force base that are sitting home. these tea party anarchists. the same refusal mitt romney does about tax runneturns. the word's out he hasn't paid any taxes for ten years. let him prove he has paid taxes. he hasn't. men don't have jobs. women don't have jobs either, but women aren't abusive, most of the time. men, when they're out of work, tend to become abusive. there's plenty of horror stories being told, all of them are untrue, but in those tales, turn out to be just that, tales. stories made up from whole cloth. lies. >> so are these really tall
4:40 am
tales, lies? these horror stories are very real for some people. in fact, we had an ophthalmologist on the show last hour who said it's very real for her. not only for her patients lost their plans, but her very own employees. she said, i'm not a liar. >> i hope he didn't call me a liar, but he perhaps has some misinformation given to him, because the stories are certainly real. i have lost patients in my practice because of that. and those patients are having a hard time finding doctors to take them, because their practices are already full. i don't think politics belong in medicine. it's a doctor/patient relationship. unfortunately, politics has gotten in the middle of it. >> and the stories will keep on coming. we've got to get to this. it's one of the biggest states in the country, but could california soon be split into six individual states? and how long would it take a terrorist to get into an airplane cockpit? well, according to this terrifying video, only two seconds. the woman behind this

4:46 am
you know, parsed into smaller pieces. >> okay. so let's break california up, into six different states right now and show me what this would look like. >> so what's at bay here is the ballot initiative that would essentially take this entire region, as mentioned, 38 million people, break it into, as proposed, six different regions. north, south, east, west, all with different functions. >> so what would these different functions be? if we look at the people who might stand to lose the most from this situation would be the two losers you've selected here. why would these regions lose out? >> well, what we're doing here is looking at past performance of the loss or gain of income, by each of these regions. according to what the ballot initiative would show. and unfortunately, it shows that two regions are already showing big losses in the past, the first is silicon valley, with a loss of $26 billion. >> but this is in what, tax revenue specifically? >> this is income moving out, probably associated with higher cost of living into the bay area. but in our analysis, they would have much smaller state, more
4:47 am
manageable ability to deal with debt and issues like that. >> fascinating. and what about this other loser? >> well, this is even the largest area of the state, different parts of california react differently over the last 18 years. we're showing it just the los angeles area, a loss of $34.5 billion in the past. this is the area that would have the biggest corruption. >> what about the two winners. who would make out the best in california? >> these two areas in green showcase what they call, around the new proposal, north california, a gain, actually, in the past of $8.16 billion. this is the sacramento bay area. actually doing well, attracting income and people and opportunity into the north. >> so if this actually happened, people from these red areas may move into the sacramento area? >> that's, in fact, what we see based on the past returns and the mooucht of incovement of in people and we see southern california doing as well, with a gain in the past income of $7.6 billion.
4:48 am
>> you have two in-between areas. what are those? >> we have the value valley represented here, which is a large agricultural region, doing well, in the past performance, about $1.6 billion. looks like they would be an agricultural state on their own. and a region they call jefferson, which is showing a gain in the past of $1.62 billion. these regions stand with a lot more independence if the proposal were to be voted on. >> i always thought it was bigger cities that were providing the tax revenues to these other regions here. so why do they seem to be the hardest hit in this scenario? >> back to the los angeles market, we know there's a huge exodus of income and opportunity. over 900,000 taxpayers flying out of that region. high taxes at the state plus local level, a lot of issues on governance, pension liabilities. there are a lot of issues that southern california has to deal with. >> california, a whole lot of trouble. travis brown, author of "how money walks," check out more info at howmoneywalks.com. how long would it take a

boeing, the flight attendants and pilots' union. now the results are out and nobody is moving on it. >> let's get this done. you want this second barrier. how much would it cost? >> the secondary barrier that united all right installed cost $3500. the airlines spend over a million on other things. it's not a cost. i met with safety and security guys with united and he said it's not cost. it's not the weight. it's simply that it has not been mandated and th mandated and that they're following tsa procedures. but just a short time ago they wanted to reintroduce knives on airplanes. this is who we're taking the lead from? we need to have it mandated. i went to my congressman.

accidentally mistook her for an intrud intruder. the fate will be left in the hands of the judge. >> i think that will be televised. it should be interesting. >> it's happening again. he served our country for 23 years and now instead of honoring him, a houston restaurant refused to service him because he had a service dog. local police called to the scene supported the restaurant's decision. so this is how we're treating our heroes now? army and navy veteran and his dog, bandit. >> how about that? >> getting closer. >> getting worse. >> actually worse. >> thank you for your service, first of all, thank you so much. >> thank you. >> you go into a rest rahn. a thai restaurant? >> yes, sir. >> what happens? >> we walked in.
5:26 am
he had his vest on. the waiter comes up and said we don't allow dogs and i said he's a service animal. he's allowed in. and the cashier said no, we don't allow dogs. i said ma'am, it's the ada state law that went into effect that says he be allowed in. and she talked to a manager and said no, no dogs. i don't care what it is. i said okay. i'm going to call the police. i said you guys do what you got to do. >> the cops show up and take the restaurant's side? >> i walked out and he still had the vest on him. the officer asked me what was going on. i gave him my side of the story. he didn't talk to the restaurant people. and he asked me what's going on with him. i said i'm a disabled veteran. and he said well, you don't need a service animal, you're not
5:27 am
blind. >> do you think that's a common mistake? i know the duty of dogs with ptsd and the back and knees are messed up from your service. because you're not blind you don't deserve a dog? >> that was a general assumption. it's fairly common that people think if you don't have a physical disability that you don't need an animal but not all disabilities are physical. >> why do you have bandit? how does he help you? >> he helps me focus on emotional issues and he's also -- i really don't believe in saying the word psychic but if you will say something close to it that would be it. he can sense when i'm having a flash back or an episode of anxiety. >> yeah.
5:28 am
and to add to that you fight for our country and go into a restaurant, how did you feel in that moment when they rejected you. >> i can see from a business point of view that they were looking out for their interest. but we also have the law on our side. and those laws are put into place so that people like myself and brothers and sisters in arms and other disabled people can come out in public and interact. >> yeah. >> i was thinking that it's just a lack of education. >> that's what it is. and that's why we were able to have you on. we think we possibly educated some people today. you don't have to be blind to need one of these dogs. and thank youing if being on the show. we did reach out to the restaurant and police department for comment and nobody called us back as of yet. thank you. next on the run down for us,

5:39 am
area over towards louisville and lexington is where we will see an ice storm throughout today and tonight. that's going to cause big problems. the snow we're still going to get but i think lit be a little lighter. not the six to 12 but the 4 to 8 range. so areas you might see three inches and up to the north there won't be any. i think the bull's eye will be appalachians in towards dc. >> great. right now in rockefeller center, over 1,000 people are climbing 66 floors. the event is called climb to the top of the rock. and it's hosted by msn -- >> the national multiple sclerosis society. >> that's what i meant to see.

gosh, i'm going to lose my friend. >> a lot of people aren't. >> you think your kids may have reset your clock? >> the doctors will tell me i'm a little crazy but when i got pregnant, my ms doctor said are you planning to have kids? because there's something when the woman is pregnant, for some reason your body doesn't relapse. you don't have flare ups, or it's not as prevalent. your body is so intuned to protecting the fetus that you don't have any new lesions or flare ups. that is what happened to me. back to back, i breast-fed for a year. i haven't had any new lesionors flare ups. i say did my kids reboot my immune system. and i have a pretty good attitude. having a chronic illness whether it's ms or cancer, it resets your life. i you realize how important every single day is. my kids, my family is my life.
5:42 am
i'm lucky to have a career but if it were to end tomorrow i would be okay. before it was all about finding that ladder and what am i going to do next and that's the most important thing. i think a lot of people who are diagnosed or who have something in their life, everyday is their gift. it makes m s me a happier perso >> did you go up the 66 steps? >> no. i was at the top but i cannot tell a lie. i road the elevator up. but thanks to all the people who climbed 66 flights of stairs. fdny were there with all of their gear. with 66 pounds of gear, climbed up 66 flights of stairs. >> you're still crazy. you don't need a doctor to tell you that. >> i love you. thank you for having me. >> enough of the love.

5:44 am
ask your doctor if you le in or have been to a region where certain fungal infections are common. tell your doctor if you have had tb, hepatitis b, are prone to infections, or have symptoms such as fever, fatigue, cough, or sores. you should not start humira if you have any kind of infection. ask your gastroenterologist about humira today. remission is possible.

5:47 am
for the main three. in the best picture category i think it will be a -- i think it will be between gravity and 12 years a slave. i think that 12 years a slave will win. keep an eye out for american hustle. the vote could split between gravity and 12 years a slave. matthew mcconaughey is pretty much a shoe-in to win. i'm still pulling for leonardo dec decaprio. i'm still pulling for sandra bu bullock. keep an eye on meryl streep. >> i watched nebraska. june was amazing. >> she's hilarious in that film.
5:48 am
>> in person she's a spit fire as well. >> i totally agree. >> what about the supporting actor category? >> this is an interesting category. pretty much a lock for mr. jared l letto. to what extent is that true. if someone from your family calls do you answer in character? >> i think if you have a specific voice sometimes you don't want to drop down to where your voice may be if you're speaking really high, physical attributes that you don't let go of. there was so much going on that i didn't want to have to try to recall or remember any of that when the camera started rolling. i wanted to be there. and not have to work back to get to that place. >> he was a gay man who dressed
5:49 am
up like a lady a lot. best supporting actress? >> i believe that 12 years a slave deserves this. keep an eye out for jennifer lawrence. i'm predicting nyong'o. >> and gravity deserves to win. 58 of the times, the winner of sag has gone on to win. he won the dga. i'm hoping that "gravity" wins the best picture. how did you get sandra bullock to look like she was flipping through space? >> when you use the flipping with wires and stuff, you are still bounded by gravity because we're shooting.
5:50 am
and then you will feel the string. so we needed to create another techniques and technologies because in zero gravity what happens is that you move, gravi, what happens is you will flip and feel your inertia, but you don't feel the drag of your own weight. so what we have is pretty much flip everything around here. >> absolutely incredible how they did that. he is my will win. i'll be tweeting about the oscars all night. >> and kevin and i will be battling whether or not it will be leo dicaprio -- >> he deserves it, but i think mcconaughey will win it. coming up, a university has no problem funding all sorts of student activities, right? but when it comes to a conservative conference, they say no way. one student says that's political discrimination and she is with us next.
5:51 am
ok, here's the way the system works. let's say you pay your guy around 2 percent to manage your money. that's not much, you think except it's 2 rcent every year. does that make a difference? search "cost of financial advisors" ouch! over time it really adds up. then go to e*trade and find out how much our advice costs. over tispoiler alert.dds up. it's low. really? yes, really. e*trade offers investmen advice and guidance from dedicated professional financial consultants. it's guidance on your terms not ours that's how our system works. e*trade. less for us, more for you. why let erectile dysfunction get in your way? talk to your doctor about viagra. ask if your heart is healthy enough for sex. do not take viagra if you take nitrates for est pain; it may cause an unsafe drop in blood pressure. side effects include adache, flushing, upset stomach, and abnormal vision. to avoid long-term injury, seek immediate medical help for an erection lastg more than four hours. stop taking vira and call youroctor right away if you experience a sudden decase or los in vision or hearing. this is the age of taking action. viagra. talk to your doctor.

hey there, good morning. students at the university of colorado boulder being denied financial help to attend this month's conservative political action conference, known as cpac, even though the student university government routinely pays for expenses to other on educational events and conferences. is this a case of discrimination? one student tried to go on that trip. good morning to you, aslan. how are you? >> i'm doing well, anna. how are you doing? >> i'm doing well. so you were asking for money, smdz 800 for travel there, but not for registration fees.
5:55 am
explain what happened. >> initially, student government had approved us for funding, us being the college republicans where we were sending myself and two other women leaders to this conference. and by receiving this funding we would be able to send others. but i get an e-mail literally over the weekend stating that they would not funding this based on the fact that it was a partisan activity. so getting this e-mail, i was not only alarmed, but also concerned because this is a case where we're having these students, these leaders stepping up and all of a sudden now we are being denied because we are claiming that we're too partisan, too political and too conservative. >> right. and the event and just on march 6th. this is what the school says. fees may not be used in support of our in opposition of political candidates or for political parties or student support of partisan political
5:56 am
activities will not be entertained. so do they have a point here? and what specific liberal groups have been given money, you know, essentially at your expense? >> right. and i wanted to touch on what you cited with the student fee regulation. that is correct, but that was to be interpreted only to use for political campaigns. and it makes sense not to use student fee dollars for political campaigns. i wouldn't want that at all and neither would any other student group. and what we specifically requested travel for, anna, was just to use for that, not for cpac registration fees, it was just to travel to the conference. >> well, aslinn, thank you so much for your time. i apologize, but we're going to have to leave it there. >> all right. no problem. >> let us know how it goes. coming up, leaders in ukraine saying their country is on the brink avenue disaster as russian troops advance openly to the united states. this story developing by the

good morning, it is sunday, the 2nd of march. a fox news alert. a nation on the brink as russian troops advance deeper into ukraine, openly defying the united states orders. but the military budget cuts to ending missile defense programs is the whooit white house weakening our military when we need it the most? and "son of god" taking the nation by storm. >> forgiven myself. >> i thought only god could do that. >> which is easy to say his sins are forgiven or say he -- >> what's behind the movie's box office success and what does it say about faith in america?
6:01 am
and speaking of hollywood, toronto's crack smoking mayor is going to go all the way to the oscars. oh, my goodness. let me just say this. mornings are better with you, our friends. >> yeah. >> you're looking live at kiev in the ukraine where it's just after 4:00 in the afternoon there. freedom fighters and protesters storming the public square there with the fox news alert, tension escalating there. president obama telling russian valentine vladimir putin to back off his miss presence there. the morning on, russian troops are taking ukraine's crimea region. peter is live in washington with the unfolding developments. good to see you this morning,
6:02 am
peter. what does it look like at this hour? >> a dramatic standoff continues at a ukrainian military base. we have brand new video showing at least 13 vehicles with russian license plates carrying 30 armed men each surrounding this ukrainian base and these gunmen are now preventing soldiers from leaving or entering the base. ukraine has recalled all military reserve, but at this one base, none of them are able to report for duty right now. president obama will warn russian president vladimir putin yesterday in a 90-minute long phone call that if he continues this aggressive posture with ukraine and violates their sovereignty any further, then russia will risk negatively impacting their standing in the international community. president obama was briefed on potential policy options by his national security adviser susan rice following a white house meeting with advisers yesterday. but some critics with claiming
6:03 am
president obama's past policy is contributing to this crisis. >> this defense system shut down, carefully negotiated over years by the bush administration, protecting not just us in the homeland but our european allies. they're looking at that saying the russians are modernizing their delivery forces, their nuclear systems and we're not defending our populations centers, neither are the americans. you have to wonder, what is it that this administration wants to see? >> as russian forces continue to take control, ukraine's army is very small. they have only about 130,000 troops, that's according to the british international institute of strategic studies. that small ukrainian force has poorly maintained aircraft and only one submarine. so far, though, no shots have been fired on either side. back to you. >> perhaps a cold war this
6:04 am
morning. thanks, peter. >> so we're asking the question now, what happens next? former pentagon official michael rubin is an american scholar at the american ebter price institute and author of "dancing with the devil." thanks for being with us. >> thanks for having me. >> what interest do we have in ukraine? and does president obama understand the gravity of the situation? >> ukraine is certainly the fault line between east and west right now. but the important thing to recognize is what happens in the ukraine doesn't stay is in the ukraine, that all our allies in the region, polar and eastern europe, the boston states, everyone is watching to see our action or inaction. it's heart for the iranians to take us seriously with regard to nuclear negotiations if they see us backing down and folding right now. >> has the united states been caught sleeping on the russia issue? obviously we saw movements into georgia in 2008, now this. is president obama the obama administration prepared to
6:05 am
handle what comes next? >> well, certainly, it's time to reset the reset. we've got to stop whitewashing putin, stop looking into his eyes. he's playing a game of international relzs. if chamber lylin goes up against machevelli, chamberlin is not going to win. they lake taking their winters in miami beach and the summers in portugal. we have to sanction travel, put their g-8 membership on the line. and one of the polls that vladimir putin doesn't want people to here came from an institute in moss cow which found 22% of russians want to immigrate from their country. russians are comparing putin to breshnev. he's weaker at home than many americans realize and we have to go on the offensive. at least rhetoric.
6:06 am
>> we have oliver north on the show this morning. he believes putin is flexing his muscles to expand the russian empire once again. do you think that is what putin is doing? what is his end game? >> that certainly is what vladimir putin is doing. colonel north is absolutely right on that. vladimir putin sees the reconstitution of russian influence over all the fear of the former soviet union and eastern europe. we need to recognize that we shouldn't sacrifice our allies, throwing them under the bush. had we fortified the ukraine, the baltics, he would have seen that there were consequence zs. unfortunately, we were caught sitting on our hands. >> when we went into iraq, what would be the difference? >> well, you know, in 1994, russia signed an agreement in
6:07 am
budapest which recognized ukrainian sovereignty. they're now absolutely violating that agreement, ultimately we need to start asking the question if russia is violating this agreement, what other agreements are they violating? when we went into iraq, we actually had a great deal of international backing, even if russia opposed. >> let me get you out of on here on this question, michael, because i think this is interesting. when you look at crimea, there's a region where the president invited russia to come in and ukraine said get out. 70% of the people there are sympathetic to the russians. they are russian. why is this a problem? >> it's a slippery slope if we start allowing countries to undo each other's sovereignty in this way. the crimea is part of the ukraine. the president in crimea is the equivalent of a govern who is asking a foreign power to intervene. the fact of the matter is, you have large russian minorities in the baltics. you have chinese nor thes in
6:08 am
other country. are you going to invite the chinese to invade? this is the precedent. that's the danger. >> cry mere ya governs with autonomy. >> thank you for coming in and educating us on in this morning. we appreciate it. >> we have some other stories making headlines we want to get to this morning. rescue crews are searching for the pilot of a navy fighter jet that crashed in a training exercise in nevada. crews are having a tough time reaching the crash site because of its remote location there. the cause is still under investigation. and new developments in the disappearance of a 20-year-old nursing student. holly bobo. investigators have returned to the property of zachary adams, a long time friend of holly's. the 29-year-old is in custody on aggravated assault charges. his property has been searched

policies and everything put in place, all of these delays that they keep throwing out there, i think 27 different switcheroos on you, what did that do for you? >> it creates more ambiguity. we have a president who has never worked in the private sector. he was a community director or whatever he did. but i know what he didn't do. he never ran a business. he never had to worry about covering payroll, meeting his loan obligations and, really, everything that's come out of the white house has been hostile towards business and obamacare is no different. >> have you sent letters to the white house, your local district congressman and telling them what this is doing to jobs in your area? >> we've spoken to political leaders and voiced our concern. >> what are they hearing from you? >> you get stone walled, frankly. >> you had a number of locations. how many in total did you have? it seemed like you were expanding pretty well, even in a down economy you were doing pretty well and expanding. but the thing that you hit a wall against was health care.
6:19 am
>> yeah. we grew five locations in four years, which was pretty ambitious. we had a plan to build another 2 to 4 in upstate new york within a 12 or 18-month period. with obamacare, there's no way that that's possible. >> what do you do now, are you in a holding pattern? >> we're going to try to do the best we can with what we have and sit on the sidelines and see what happens. as you said, every week, it seems there's something else that comes out as a surprise. so everyone is learning as they go. >> when you hear harry reid say everyone affected by this are liars, what do you say? >> we're not lying. business owners who aren't going to grow like myself, jobs that aren't going to be created, these aren't lies. this is reality. >> matt, i'm sorry to hear your story, but thank you for sharing it with us and we wish you the best of luck. hopefully something will switch and maybe your congressman will be paying attention. thanks so much, matt. >> thank you. coming up here shoet, how

6:27 am
>> were you surprised -- >> she's been a huge help. >> sean, were you surprised that she really came through for you? i don't know that i'd know how to unlock a cell phone and make a call. >> at the moment, i wasn't really surprised. it was kind of on something that -- adrenaline was going. i was just hoping and praying that she would remember. it wasn't until i got into the ambulance where i really started thinking about it that, wow, she's only 3 years old and she just did this. she's the one who saved my life. i had no other choices, you know, no other options. and -- >> well -- >> just kind of making sure they can do it. >> will she get away with anything she wants for the rest of her life? >> she does owe you. soda before bed? >> yeah. according to her nana, she can get away with anything, but she still knows there's rules at the house that she'll have to follow. i mean, she'll always here it, you're my hero, but she still has to follow the rules.

6:44 am
6:45 am
welcome back to "fox & friends." we've just learned that lowy lerner, the disgraced irs official who refused to testify about targeted tea party groups
6:46 am
will be heading back to capitol hill on wednesday and this time we've just learned that she's going to answer questions. lernor's lawyer had originally said she would once again plead the fifth. isa announcing lernor had not been offered mupty in exchange for that testimony. mike. >> big news. we'll be covering that. the clinton files are being unfiled. there's an enormous effort to humanize hillary back in the days of the clinton white house. is there still a push to make her media friendly? and will these revelations impact hillary in 2016? joining us now, howard kurtz, host of media buzz here on the fox news channel. good to see pup. >> good morning, mike. >> i guess she was being coached by this mandy grunw aye ld, right? >> among others, yes, one of they are key advisers. one of the documents we found said don't be defensive. the press is obviously watching
6:47 am
to see if they can make you uncomfortable or testy. look for opportunities for humor. it's important that people see more sides of you and they often see only in very stern situations your behavior. be careful to be real. wow. how can you teach someone to be real? >> are you kidding me? every politician gets this sort of advice. you can't fake sincerity. there are other memos which hillary clinton is during her husband's presidency in the '90s was told we could all tell wonderful anecdotes about her, humanize her. the reason this is more than just historical fascination, mike, is a lot of this came up in her 2008 campaign for president where hillary clinton kept the national press kind of at arm's-length, was weary, was cautious, and a lot of people think that hurt her that we didn't really see hillary the human being and it could come up
6:48 am
again should she choose to run the next time. >> the advisers do this all the time. told mitt romney and john kerry to be real. another quick point, she's 66 now. and in 2017, if she wins and takes office, close to 69 years of age. is that okay to bring up? they did with ronald reagan back in '79. >> right. reagan, of course, was the same age, 69, when he took office. it's a fact. i don't think we can shy away from it. when we did a story about this, a lot of people said it's sexist to bring this up in the case of a woman. i don't think the press should harp on it. i think if republicans harp on it, there could be a backlash. at the same time, there are legitimate questions about her health and things like that that i think are going to be part of any campaign. when you run for president, i'll give it to you real here, everything is on the table, including your age, your health, your history in hillary's case. there will be a lot for the
6:49 am
press to delve into. >> what's on media buzz? >> we'll be talking about this, try to leave open joe biden's attempt to run for president. and pierce morgan from cnn, getting the ax. not a lot of people shedding tears about that. next on the rundown here on "fox & friends," they look cute and seem so easy to take care of. they're called pocket pets. are they really safe and that easy to take care of? we'll ask the vet.

6:54 am
the doctor is here. are these safe? are these easy to take care of? what is a pocket pet? >> ideally anything that can fit in your pocket, but we like to call them small mammals we can call them pocket pets if you have other things that are not mammals. i have hamsters in there. i have -- this is my box turtle. >> i had one growing up and my uncle had a baby pool with two box turtles in colorado. good move or bad move. >> this little guy is a rescue and all of these guys of rescues. we are talking 40 years. a big commitment. the other thing is they are all up for adoption and on our website we have the names of the rescues. i'm holding this turtle who can

6:56 am
>> where did they go? >> they are on a lot of fun, but not for small kids. they are for kids over 12 because they are so busy. this is like having a toddler in your house all the time. th they get into things and like to chew on things. >> you can also say that the parents -- parents need to coparent. >> absolutely. they really do. if you want to get one for your child. you top the take care of them too. don't buy them from a pet store if you find some locally. >> lots more coming up. these are adorable.
