[laughter] >> it's okay. >> so here we go. first up, the select committee

on benghazi, now official after yesterday's house vote. now we await speaker john boehner's picks to fill the republican slots on that panel that will investigate the death of four americans. and allegations of a white house cover-up. democrats, meantime, blasting the committee as nothing but political theater aimed at winning voters and hurting hillary clinton. the dems meeting to decide what to do amid talk of a boycott. one senior member of party leadership telling fox they are not seriously considering the idea of one dem floated to have just one member serve on that benghazi committee, saying, quote: we are either in, or we are out. minutes ago house minority leader nancy pelosi spoke about her negotiations with the republican majority and the concern democrats would have about joining the committee. >> what we've asked for is that as much bipartisanship as possible. they've rejected and even the divided committee as the ethics

committee, they rejected that. we would have liked to have had that, but we must have standards. >> but earlier on fox republican senator rand paul giving this reaction to a possible democratic boycott. >> you know, i think if democrats refuse to participate in finding the truth about benghazi, that it's a disservice to the memory of ambassador stephens and -- stevens and to those who died in benghazi. it also shows a lack of concern for trying to prevent this in the future. this was a terrible tragedy and really was dependent on a lot of decisions that hillary clinton made in the six months leading up to this. >> dr. keith, i think you could really bring some perspective to this panel today. maybe we haven't heard as we've been following this story. you know, we just heard nancy pelosi call this, the actions of the republicans a stunt, referring to the assembly of this possible. this panel. it seems like we're losing track of why we're all getting together, why this committee is being put together. it's because there are four dead americans. >> exactly.

listen, reality seeking, looking for facts is never a stunt, it's essential. it's what i do with people. this is what psychiatry is, and political psychiatry, if you will, is the same thing. it's getting to the bottom of the narrative. what really happened. and if you don't know that, you are hobbled by it, because you will make decisions in your life that undermine you, and we as a nation will make decisions that undermine us. if it isn't clear exactly what happened, this isn't a stunt. this is essential. >> and, kirsten, perhaps that's why we are all just flabbergasted at how partisan this is becoming by the day. we still don't yet know how many democrats are going to be put together here, one, could it be five? how many -- will they boycott? where do you see things at this point? >> first i would say sometimes in washington, this is really going to be a shock to you, there are political stunts. so, you know -- >> shocking. >> -- frankly, investigations can become political stunts. in this case nancy pelosi's

saying, oh, this is just an election year thing, of course, but this has been going on for two years, and republicans have been trying to get to the bottom of this for two years. this isn't something that just came up because there's an election. and i do agree the democrats need to be all in or all out. i'd prefer they were all in. either they have to just be there or not be there. >> you know what i thought was interesting, a representative came up with this idea that you would have just one person just to show you weren't boycotting. that would give you an opportunity to have access to important information and to interview witnesses. but yesterday we know that hillary clinton said, you know, we're satisfied with all the answers, speaking for democrats. so why would they want to interview witnesses? that was interesting. also seven democrats voted, jumped ship, voted with republicans -- now, mind you, some of them are in contentious re-election mode right now anyway -- >> yeah. >> but they joined republicans for this committee, to form this

select committee. >> yeah. i wouldn't read too much into seven people, and they are all running in very, you know, red districts. so i think you will always have some people peeling off. for the most part, democrats are opposed to this, and they don't want to do this investigation. they think that they have all the answers. i don't know why they think that, because they don't clearly have all the answers, and we don't know what else they don't have because they didn't have this e-mail from the foia request. >> and the final results were that the deaths were preventable. that seemed very open-ended to me, and that still leaves a lot of answers that we need based on what happened in benghazi. >> and just to wrap that up, we did just hear from nancy pelosi saying she was satisfied with the investigation, that she doesn't believe that they could have done any more, and she believes there's nobody else to ask questions of. >> yeah. she'll believe the -- right, remember that stunt? this is another one. >> president obama is focusing on the midterms. he's admitting that his

executive actions can only go so far without backing from congress, so he says the democrats must take back the house. quote: regardless of how hard i push, regardless of how many administrative actions i take, we're not going to be able to get where we need to go, can go and should go unless i've got a congress that's willing to work with me. um, i just was sort of taken aback at the idea that the president thinks they can win back the house. it seems crazy to me. >> i mean, that's the thing that hit me. >> yeah. well, look, the senate is in play-ish, you know? i think most people are thinking that the democrats are going to lose the senate. nobody thinks that they're going to win back the house. >> when did reality start to matter to this administration, right? this is the same thing as benghazi. sure, why not say we're going to take back the house because it's a good line, and because his legacy's assured. he disempowered the united states artfully, intentionally is and from the beginning with

the apology tour. so he doesn't have to worry, kirsten -- >> i know. i don't buy the apology tour. >> remarkably effective at undermining this. >> would you at least admit, though, he's pretty smart politically? >> screen yous. how can you become the -- genius, how can you become the leader of a nation that you don't like? >> it's going to be interesting to see the democrats press the economy and how well the economy is doing when we've seen what obamacare has done to a lot of small businesses in this country. recent fox news polling shows that people don't like the situation. 48% of voters that responded said that they think that the jobs situation is getting worse, 58% of registered voters, they disapprove of obama's handling of the economy. so where does he run and where, you know, where do democrats position themselves to boast about what's happened over the past -- >> well, and also "usa today" came out with a poll recently showing that the democrats are actually in the worst place they've been at this point in the midterms in 20 years. >> but, you know -- >> in terms of house districts. >> speaking of the economy,

sandra, and i've heard you say it before, yeah, we created 288,000 jobs in april, but many of them were lower paying jobs. so even if democrats switch to the economy, they're going to have a tougher time even when the numbers look good, because if you go deep into them, what's the reality? if you have a job and it pays you half what you used to make, that's half a job. >> yeah. and i don't know if you saw james carville did this poll basically saying don't say the word "recovery" anymore. these are coming from democrats. [inaudible conversations] >> the nice thing about the weather is that -- [laughter] if you lie, everybody knows it, right? and so, you know, this prognosticating and forecasting has to be offensive to somebody who actually looks at real trends and is on the line every day to be true. >> well, and it just seems like the numbers can get twisted around a little bit this terms of jobs. we've known that, we've seen them twisted around and kind of making it seem like it's a certain way or so. but, yeah, i mean, this is going

to be a big concern, and i think i read that historically during the midterm elections it's typically democrats that don't go to vote, correct? it's usually republicans -- >> yeah. republicans tend to turn out more in midterm elections. >> all right. we're going to pick the good doctor's brain now, i think in his sweet spot, although he tends to have lots of areas. we love that about him. well, if you were an angry teenager, beware. it turns out those negative emotions from high school may affect your life 25 years later. a new study published in the journal of family psychology found depression and anger can cling to you and affect your marriage and career more than two decades later. they may even, those angry feelings, lead some people to be more likely to get divorced. so do you take the study for what it says? is it true? >> 100%. this is a great endorsement for my day job. >> really? [laughter] >> happens to be on a couch. >> believe it or not, the first 40 pages of your life story which, let's say, runs 250 pages and is going to run 600 pages or

longer, those first pages are critical to the later pages. they define your potential. if you don't understand the patterns you developed in childhood and adolescence, if you were bullied as a kid and you think you're going to make your bones back by being compelling to one woman after another after another, that's going to define your marriage -- >> this is so depressing. are you saying that someone can't evolve in their 20s and 30s and 40s and eventually into their oohs and 60s -- 50s and 60s be a completely different person than they were in their teenage years, doctor? >> sadly, not without either a calamity like a major depression taking hold where you reevaluate your entire existence or getting on my couch.

" a middle school sex education book has some parents in missouri outraged. it's called "it's perfectly normal," and it indicated it's four kids, ages 10 and up. it features cartoon drawings of people involved in sexual acts. some parents say it's too graphic, others say it's important for kids to learn this information early on. by the way, controversy is nothing new for this book. the american library association ranked it the most challenged

book of 2005. dr. keith, how can i not go to you first on this? is there anything wrong with this? they're just trying to educate the children, aren't they? >> well, i think there's everything wrong with it. okay? [laughter] i really do. i'm not sure why schools even have to teach sex ed. maybe i am down the bell curve on this. >> i'll tell you the answer to that. >> please. >> the answer to that, dr. keith, is because they're going to learn it somewhere -- >> yes, i prefer it. >> and why not have it in the structured environment of school? >> why not have it in the family? >> oh, from the family. >> but what if their parents aren't involved? kids whose parents aren't talking to them, or the parents ant around. >> the trouble with that, it's a slippery slope. what if your kids aren't around to teach you nutrition, to teach you about having babies, to teach you about sex. they can't each teach these kids to read and write effectively, let alone understand politics and become entrepreneurs and leaders. i'd rather have them learn

leadership. >> but the thing is if they don't understand this and they get pregnant, that changes their life in such a dramatic way. >> kirsten, they taught me nothing about sex in school, in public school pack in marblehead, mass, i learned. >> was it your parents? >> you know, i think they were stumbling and bumbling through it, frankly. it still was okay. >> by the way, we're showing a couple images from the book, by the way. make what you will of this, it appears they're in the locker room. they're blurred out, of course, because some of these are not appropriate for television. kissing on the sofa is perfectly normal. it appears to be -- okay, everybody just make what you will of these images, but these are in the book, maria. do you think that this is too much for kids to handle? >> absolutely. i had sex ed when i was in middle school and high school, you know? these were not images i was shown. we were talking more about our bodies and how they were changing and kind of the science part of that, not about

positions or that type of activity. i think that the normal thing is to explain to a teenager, hey, your body's going through certain changes, you may start to see these changes, and that's normal. that's okay. >> and the school helps because they know what the kids are talking about when thai not in your -- they're not in your care. >> it's a trojan horse inside the schools, and they're going to start talking about threesomes, and they're going to be talking about everything that's okay. we don't jail people for these things. >> i've never heard that taught in sex ed. >> but why wouldn't they? >> because -- [inaudible conversations] >> no, this book is not sex tips. i mean, this is not how to have great sex. >> if you've never been opposed to this before, kirsten, they might be -- >> not for you, but for a kid 10 years old.

i could see it maybe in high school or junior high, something like that. i know you say you knew about it, but believe it or not, some don't. >> the images in the book do show people having sex. by the way, at this particular school a father of two has filed a formal complaint to have the book removed. it's still on the library shelves available for checkout. >> there you go. >> yeah. well, now a different kind of controversy at an illinois middle school over leggings and yoga pants. girls there say they're fighting for the right to wear the skin-hugging pants to class, some claiming they've even been told leggings are a distraction to boys. the school claims there is no such ban, but it's a dress code, its dress code requires a skirt or shorts to be worn over the leggings, and we do have the school's statement also that we would like to show to you guys because this one right here says: it is essential to our school's climate that we set a standard of expectation and decorum. the dress code has been developed and implemented over

time and does not, as reported, ban a particular leg covering. the notion that girls' clothing affects the way boys learn is not and never will be our message as fashion changes, our policy may change, but the premise will not. basically, you're stating you can wear the leggings -- you can't wear the -- >> just cover them up. >> yeah. their problem is very complicated. we're starting to control what girls wear, and i do think schools should take part in that, but, i mean, doesn't that kind of start at the home? >> well, it becomes a very gray area, what's appropriate and what's not appropriate. do you really want schools telling children what they can and can't wear to classes? i know dr. keith is smiling because this is anngoing problem at schools in this country. >> well, okay, so i see this somewhat differently. i think that families are to educate their children as to personal matters like sex. we already talked about that. but you can't come into class

and hit my kid, right? that's going to be controlled. that other child has to be controlled. and you cannot come in with leggings -- >> oh, boy. >> -- because my son wants to learn, and the truth is it is distracting, and it is kind of inappropriate because when did we decide as a culture that tights would become an overgarment instead of an undergarment? the reason we're doing that is because girls are in a panic to be more and more sexual because we've taken all the restraint away from them ninety. we've -- femininity. >> i also have to disagree with the contention that schools shouldn't tell you how to dress. why can't there be a dress code? is. >> when i was growing up, there was -- and the other thing is i think they're basically saying you should wear something that's covering, you know, your bottom is, essentially, what they're saying. and when these girls are coming in in very skin-tight clothing, i agree with him, it is distracting. and deal with it.

>> learn to deal with it. >> what's going to happen -- >> we're talking about boys. these kids are going through puberty, you know, they're not men, and -- >> she's right. >> they're being asked to behave like men. and, in fact, if you look at what a lot of these parents say, they're comparing the fact that you're telling these girls to tell themselves, they're comparing it to rape culture. it's just out of control. and the idea -- and then saying that the boys need to change. well, gouge their eyes out? they're boys. >> they're there to learn, and so whatever the distraction would be, like my daughter, she's in first grade. at her school you can't go in with shirts that say obnoxious things across the chest and that are offensive. >> exactly. >> i don't think it's a freedom of speech thing at that age, i think it's all the boys want to stare at that shirt, and it's about distraction. >> you don't want them to wear a shirt that had something vulgar on it. there are things that the schools tell you -- >> how about the fact that they're wearing pants that

happen to be comfortable? >> i don't think that's why they're wearing them -- [laughter] i don't know that we can restrain boys from being boys. so the long stare, the offhand comment, you have to -- what do you do, excuse it? because it was certainly provoked. and i think girls put themselves -- >> i think we're all going to have to agree to disagree. >> i love that. you know what they're really thinking, doctor.

>> welcome back to "outnumbered." harry reid not just going after republicans these days. the senate majority leader has some strong words for journalists about how they cover the gop. in an interview he blames republicans for holding up legislation but suggests that reporters won't call things as they really are. listen to this. >> one of the problems the press has in modern day journalism is everything you do is a tit for tat. you won't call things the way they exist. the fact is, we want to legislate. >> some interesting timing here. the senate majority leader's remarks that reporters are too soft on republicans comes just days after a revealing study. this study found that just 7% of journalists identify themselves as republicans. so 7% of all reporters are now identifying as republicans, and this is actually down, i think, from about 25 percent, you know,

when they first started doing this in 1971. what do you make of this? >> well, what i make of it is that we're in a new age where maybe that wouldn't have mattered as much before when people were investigative journalists. they were married more closely to the truth, i think, than to appearances and to tweeting and to facebook postings. and now i think that that really does matter, and republicans are likely to get less good of a deal from journalists because they are outnumbered. so i think that the whole profession n good, hard look at itself and say are we fans of a particular party, or are we truth tellers? >> sandra, another thing that the poll found is as is what's happening with the rest of the country is a lot of these journalists are identifying as indidn'ts. independents. >> they really? are they really independent? i think other surveys have shown they look at ideology, they tend to skew liberal. >> so then you have to ask

yourself, they're identifying a party, they're independents. a journalist has a responsibility to not allow their party affiliation to, you know, intercede with their reporting obligations. is that possible? i think that that's the question everybody needs to ask themselves. i mean, kirsten, you're in this every single day. do you truly know any journalists that leave all partisan politics, beliefs out of their reporting? >> i actually do. and i think -- sorry. >> i'm just going to interject if you guys will let me do this because we've got some breaking news that actually pertains to politics right now, and it's something we were waiting for this hour. house speaker john boehner has put together and called for the select committee on benghazi. and now we know the names of the members. and this is important because we were wondering what the breakout would be, republican/democrat, who will be on it. here are some answers. republican representative trey gowdy, south carolina; lynn westmoreland of georgia; jim

jordan of ohio; peter roskam of illinois, mike pompei owe of kansas and susan brooks. so i'm looking at this. some of these names were anticipated. we know we heard a lot from peter roskam this week and, of course, we've heard from trey gowdy, we fully expected him to be tapped to lead the commission on this, and he's been talking about what he would do. he's a former prosecutor, a veteran prosecutor. his goal, trey gowdy has said, has been to keep this from turning into, in his words, anything less than it should be, not a circus atmosphere, but one that's fact-gathering. we know that senator lindsey graham bicamerally has looked at the house and said, look, when you guys do this, it's important to pick out investigators that are respected by both republicans and democrats in all of this and, also, get yourselves a pr, a press group that can handle any sorts of media crises that would come up as the answers start to come out

on benghazi. so, kirsten, we know who it's going to be now for the republicans. talk to me about the democrats. >> well, that's the big question, right? that's what i think will be much more interesting, are there going to be democrats, are they going to boycott it or be there? i think that that's the million dollar question. until we see what they're going to do, we're not going to know how this is going to play out, and i think for this to have legitimacy, it would be better if there are democrats on it. >> legitimatesty and, hopefully, answers. forget about the legitimacy and all of that in terms of politics, it's the answers. four dead americans. >> right. well, look, republicans can probably get the answers without the democrats. i just think if they aren't there, they can kind of portray it as this witch hunt done by republicans. >> you know, doctor, i'm curious to know from you just in terms of the political psychology because that's what you look at here, why wouldn't the democrats -- and we're reading that they would want to interview witnesses, why wouldn't they want to get all the information out there? they have to face re-election

and elections this fall coming up. why not play a role? >> one would wonder whether they simply want to paint this as a partisan effort and by backing off, discredit it. the trouble with that is that there are not only four people lost their lives, but the united states' citizenry was told a lie. it was told that this whole mess started with a video that we were to blame, that because we had disseminated a toxic video, that that's why our people were killed. that's an incredibly toxic message, and if that came from the white house, that's a smoking gun about what the white house thinks about america. >> yeah. and we've got two more years of this presidency is. all right. we're going to move on to something else that's coming out of the house leadership right now. and we knew again this might happen during this hour, and it has. this is a resolution that condemns the kidnappings of this hundreds of schoolgirls in nigeria, and now that's comfort. they were -- come forth.

they were taken by a terror group sparking worldwide outrage. let's go to alex crawford on the ground in nigeria with the latest. alex? >> reporter: hi, yes. the nigerian president has been speaking this afternoon, and he's been saying some quite interesting things, particularly that he believes the girls are not only still alive, but also inside nigeria. you'll remember that there was a very chilling video released by -- [inaudible] in which its leader was seen bragging, laughing, brandishing weapons, but also threatening to sell these poor schoolgirls as slaves, sex slaves and get rid of them on the market for money. that pretty much galvanized a lot of the population in nigeria to protest and demonstrate and

demand much more positive action from their own government. i was speaking earlier to a mediator here in nigeria, civil rights activist who has sat across a table talking to some of these people. he's talked to some of the right lieutenants of the leader for many years now, he's probably one of the people who knows very specifically how they think, how they work and how they operate, and he is trusted by them, so he's allowed into their inner circle, and he has mediated for them in the past. he says that video, he believes very much, was -- [inaudible] to say that the girls were alive. the fact that they were talking about selling them meant that they were still alive, and he believes the group want to negotiate and mediate and try

and get their own recruits released from nigerian prisons in return for the girls' freedom. >> alex, thank you very much. and we'll go back as the news warrants here on fox news. but for now, new developments in the irs targeting scandal. what a leading republican says lois lerner did while she was at the agency. that is, in his words, were criminal in nature, her actions. we'll have an update on that. plus, they really are a bundle of joy. isn't your little one turning 1 today? >> today.

>> more "outnumbered," in just a moment, but first to jon scott on what's coming up in the second hour of "happening now." >> sandra, thank you. some stories we are following, the u.s. house of representatives condemning the terror group in the kidnapping of those nearly 300 nigerian schoolgirls with a moment of silence for the girls. there could soon be new information on lois lerner, the former irs official at the center of the targeting scandal. the irs agreeing to turn over all of her e-mails. and the head of the veterans department, veterans affairs department orders a nationwide review of va medical centers in the wake of reports that veterans may have died while waiting for care at the phoenix va clinic. that's all coming up. >> all right. we will be watching. jon: sounds good, thank you. >> surprising new research indicates that parents with young kids of any age are happier than nonparents. that turns the long-running conventional wisdom on its head.

the researchers say one reason is that they expanded their definition beyond biological parents to include adopted and stepparents. they say parents appear as happy as they did back in the '80s, but nonparents are less happy and that the presence of children may actually protect against declining happiness. harris, do you think you you wee happier before or after kids? laugh be honest. >> oh, my goodness, gracious, i know my husband's watching. i don't have enough time for my husband. it's true. >> i wish i could have him join us. >> i love him dearly. the children pull at you, and you have to -- it's like the neediest person in the room, you go for the little ones. and when we get date night, which is very important, we carve out that time, but it's not like taking a six-hour hike. it's just, you know, we do what we can, but you can't do that every day. >> could technology be playing a role? could parents now have more time for, to enjoy their kids can and possibly their marriage? what do you think? >> you know, i don't know. i think technology is generally

a little bit in the way of these connections that might make us feel more grounded. but here's something that we can all ponder: is happiness really the measure of how we're going to judge our lives? >> yes. >> yeah. >> i'm not so sure. i would say do you feel that what you're doing is most valuable. because, in fact, some of the things that people do that they find most valuable that define their lives, they're not the things that make them feel day-to-day joyful. and by the way, when this study included adoptive and stepparents in the mix, they ruined their study, because those folks have gone to extraordinary lengths to adopt, so they've contaminated the study. because they've skewed the data. >> i get you bringing up the word "happiness," because we all have different definitions of happiness, but i think what this study also points out is that because when people have children it changes their focus and their definition -- >> sure. >> -- of happiness. and, therefore, while they might have been seeking something in their teenage years, their 20s, now they find themselves

with children, this redefines their life -- >> totally. >> their scale of happiness in general. >> becomes the most important person in their life when they have a -- >> i mean, i don't have kids, but i have two amazing little nieces, and they live in alaska, unfortunately, where i'm from. and i'm so much happier when i'm around my nieces. and maybe you could say because i'm an aunt and i come and i leave or something like that, but i really do feel like life is just more fun and interesting when you're around these little kids discovering new things and, you know -- >> i think they animate your life. >> to do things as a family, i think we can cheat and kind of have a date that way too. >> i think it's a welcome study. you get sick of everybody saying once you have kids, the whole world is over. >> there you go. >> and a severe weather threat for mother's day weekend after storms already barreled through parts of the country, ands -- and this is just the beginning. also the female-friendly eateries that are getting very mixed reviews. why some women are angry and what they really want when it

[laughter] >> but do you think the steakhouse is too intimidating? well, now there are female-friendly restaurants. they're going to change that, they say. stk has six locations. they offer smaller portions of meat and a chic decor. >> love it. >> actress eva long gore ya's she in vegas provides a mirror on the dessert menu and fashion shows, but is this really what women want? maria? >> absolutely. this is perfect. why not? why not embrace your femininity? you go to a restaurant, and it's very chic, and you can have a mirror, you don't have to take out your compact mirror anymore and be so vain when you're at a restaurant. just open the menu, and it's there. >> kirsten, you're shaking your head. >> to me, it actually sounds like hell.

[laughter] if i go to hell, this will be it. >> why though? >> what's wrong with a regular steakhouse? who's swim daylighted by that? and from a his perspective, i'm a huge fan of this because this is not enough specific marketing to women. and by the way, we've been talking about on this show if you've been watching about female breadwinners. it's estimated that about 85% of all purchases are women. and most women when they're surveyed feel that they're not directly advertised to. >> i get that. >> and the consumer products in the grocery store, when you see something directly marketed to a woman, they are more likely to buy it. so why not do it with a steakhouse? >> well, good question, but are you comfortable, would you be comfortable bringing your daughter to a place that suggests that pink -- pink -- and a mirror is what shall define her femininity? >> this is not a place where men are parading around, like hooters is not about weight lifting, right? [laughter] and presumably, female restaurants could be about good looking guys, but this isn't. are you cool with it?

>> you know, i think i'm outnumbered on this one. this is not a place i would go to. >> i'm with you. >> it started with, it started with the portions are smaller. what does that mean? [laughter] like i can't have a steak, i can't have, like, a big -- >> how many times do you order a portion -- [inaudible conversations] [laughter] >> i'm hungry now. in fact, if you weren't hear, this would be like that restaurant. [laughter] >> there you go. >> right? so bring it on. >> suggesting to women that they ought eat less and pay particular attention to their looks. >> i guess -- >> it's interesting. >> i missed the pink part because that bothers me a little bit. really, the decor is pink? >> i think pink with girls is good, frankly. >> without saying so, kirsten, most steakhouses are geared towards men whether it's, you know, cigars and leather chairs, and it's very masculine when you get inside. why do they have to actually say that this is for women, is my problem. >> i guess if you wanted to make it, you know, in some way not the pink thing, not the mirrors,

if there was a way to market it to women if women really don't like the decor of the steakhouse, i like steakhouses, i like a big steak -- >> thank you. >> it's like, and, you know -- and i think if you want a small steak, you can cut your steak in half and put the other half in a bag. >> that's true. what would bring you in? >> i don't have a problem -- >> what would do it? >> i'm not the target market here because i don't have any problem with the way the current steakhouse is. like i don't want to go -- >> a good cocktail list.
