9:00 am
jon: you and the baby have another hour with you? jenna: hopefully. another two months as well. jon: we'll be back here in one number. "outnumbered" starts right now. >> this is "outnumbered." today's hashtag one lucky guy in his suspenders, bob and he's officially outnumbered. a position you're used to being in, right? >> it doesn't change. 4-1 at 5:00 and 3-1. >> but you like four women to one man. >> i like it not in a political sense. i like it in a social sense. >> this could be the most fun you've ever had. >> i enjoy this show very much except for the set. >> you live alone in a bachelor
9:01 am
pad. >> it's really nice. >> you don't like anything decorated. >> it's decorated and decorated well. you have to see it. >> the sofa isn't black like in your bachelor pad. >> my sofa is black. >> you are that guy, aren't you? >> i have lots of mirrors in my bedroom. >> oh, boy. let's move on. >> let's go. >> what a coincidence. we won't go there. landmark decision from the supreme court yesterday. the justices ruling that closely held corporations can hold religious objections that allow them to opt out of the obamacare requirement that they cover contraceptions for females. this is the first time the high court has ruled that profit making businesses can hold religious views under federal law. the 5-4 opinion is a victory for hobby lobby. the family sued sag the ruling enfringes on their religious beliefs and the fine would have been a massive burden.
9:02 am
shannon is live outside the court. tell us what the decision means. >> well, andrea, for these companies, closely held family owned corporations, it is a huge win. think about hobby lobby has more than 14,000 or so employees. they've always said it's important to have high quality health care for their employees. they didn't want to be forced with this choice. like if they lost here, they would have to drop their insurance program and force employees onto the exchange. they didn't want to do that. when i asked them a month ago, if you lose what are you going to do, they said we're not even going to discuss that at this point. it's a day of a big win for them. the freedom act was passed back in the 1990's that essentially said somebody shouldn't have to give up their religious convictions because they go into business. they shouldn't have to just practice on their sabbath, saturday or sunday or another day. they should live faith seven days a week and that means making business decisions. hobby lobby is closed on sunday
9:03 am
so they can have a day of rest and they play christian music. they donated millions to christian causes. they make no secret what kind of company they are and they said that essentially there were four of the 20 mandated contraception methods they couldn't go along with. in their belief, that can trigger abortions so there's no way to facilitating that in any way. the justice said the law makes it clear congress didn't want to discriminate in any way against men and women that want to run their business in the manner required by the religious beliefs. law protected them. the dissent not happy with that and justice ginsberg also red her dissenting opinion from the bench that doesn't happen a lot but it does when people are very passionate about making their point. her estimation was we make this a balancing test. what about the thousands of female employees who work for hobby lobby in her estimation,
9:04 am
the majority doesn't care about them. >> it seems to me, and you cover the court very closely so you've seen the trends that have happened the last couple of weeks and months, the court seems to be limiting the executive power in these series of decisions and that's exactly what they did today when you read justice kennedy's concurring opinion saying he didn't agree with the other justices. he agreed with them but disa degreed for other reasons. his issue was that ahs put this mandate into place. do you see it as obama's executive power that he'd been flexing lately, being struck down? >> it's possible. obviously we've had that unanimous opinion last week striking down his efforts to make recess appointments to the relations board and the senate said we're in session and the opinion not a conservative and signed on to by all nine justices said if the senate is in session, it's in session. they're not in session, i'm going to recess to appoint people anyway.
9:05 am
with this case, it stems from the health care law but it was written by an agency, it was written by the health and human services agency. it came through then secretary sebelius and that's something that kennedy brought up during the oral arguments. i'm concerned this rule doesn't come from congress. it's coming from an executive agency. it's not even a brfanch. a lot of people think it's turned into a fourth branch but kennedy seemed to have a problem with that. the executive is enforcing its will through an executive agency. >> you know, shannon, kennedy had a problem with some lawmakers are saying they did, too. barack obama is now googling, quote, can an executive override the supreme court, hashtag hobby lobby. i was curious about the other cases pending like this one, shannon and i know there are some because we're already hearing from attorneys who say, you know what? this means victory for my case and the client that i represent.
9:06 am
can you tell us about what's out there and what could be coming down the pike? >> we actually have another set of challenges to the contraceptive mandate. these are coming from religious groups and there are some emergency petitions filing right now because a new deadline kicks in tomorrow. we're talking about catholic schools and hospitals, groups not like hobby lobby, that does craft and arts. these religious organizations say their entire function is religious activity. those are pending here now because they say -- the administration has said to them in court, we provided you an accommodation. you signed this form that says i don't want to provide contraceptives to my employees. these religious organizations say that's like signing a permission slip for something i don't approve of and i don't think i should have to sign the permission slip so that's the next round that is pending here at the court. we do have the two emergency petitions that i would expect to hear on those today but as far as other sweeping challenges to the executive branch, i think
9:07 am
those are going to be limited. that's not something that from this opinion, people will certainly use this to argue their point but it's pretty narrow. >> shannon, is there any concern now that some of these closely held businesses, closely held corporations will now see this as a means to challenging other regulations that they're not comfortable with? that was the big concern had this been a broader ruling from the supreme court and affected bigger, more publicly held corporations. >> yes. something the government argued about in the case and opponents have voiced to me today. they're very worried that one of these closely held groups will be able to step up and say, i want to challenge social security or minimum wage or paying for vaccinations or something else. the court pretty much said the slippery slope, we're not decide that go today. we're saying in this case alone, these religious freedoms were violated so the executive branch, via this agency hhs, can't enforce t. they say it's narrowly tailored and the
9:08 am
justice says it's a sweeping decision. we'll see whose decision was right. >> shannon, thanks so much. >> good to see you. >> okay, i thi this is a wonderful ruling and there have been some really terrific things happening at the supreme court lately. this decision, though, is narrowly tailored, 5-4, still a win for the first amendment at a time when the administration and progressives are trying to trample on the first amendment. >> i agree. i also do think the issue of the slippery slope is interesting, though. she's saying, this isn't coming up now but are these new instances going to be keep popping up if, for example, somebody works for a corporation and they don't want to provide coverage for vaccines? if they don't want to provide coverage for blood transfusion, if they decide they don't want to provide benefits to a couple that happens to be gay? i'm wondering if these are going to be filtering in one by one now and the supreme court going to have to evaluate all of these things on a one by one basis that makes us look at everything and religious freedom in its
9:09 am
entirety a little differently. >> bob, you've said obamacare is the law of the land. we've seen this administration carve out for other reasons. it didn't give a carve out this time around but lost at the supreme court. >> first of all, let me just say that i say it's exactly the opposite. number two, the idea that a couple of religious people who run a corporation for profit are allowed to bring their religious views in for 13,000 employees is absurd and obscene. third thing i would say with all due respect to our supreme court reporter, every bill has regulations. every bill that passes the congress leaves it up to the executives to bring regulations around it. not one bill is all sweeping on every regulatory part of it. but the idea that these -- what if they were christian scientists? >> how do you argue this big tramples on -- or this ruling tramples on people? how? >> church and state. the people, those 13,000 have the right to free speech and
9:10 am
those 13,000 have a right to expect -- >> free speech. this isn't saying they're not allowed to speak their minds. they're saying this imposes on the religious freedoms of businesses. >> they're imposing views on 13,000 people when they should keep -- >> bob, i think a few people might resent you saying they chose to bring in their religious beliefs when they built this company on their evangelical and christian beliefs 44 years ago out of a garage in oklahoma. it's not like one day they decided to impose religious beliefs. >> the wright brothers built the planes. they built this thing -- they didn't build a church. they didn't decide from the beginning they were going to have religious -- >> but they built in that. >> a lot of businesses have sundays off. >> government has the right to come in and tell that person, no. you're not allowed to build your business based on the value system.
9:11 am
we say that you can't do that. is that the right of the government or is that a massive overreach? >> absolutely no right. >> no, bob. >> this is supreme court which is fairly much of a joke. >> you should not have a conscience as a business owner to run the business as you want? they're providing a number of birth controls. >> can i go back to christian scientists of these things? you can't take your child in to get care because christian scientists don't feel like they want to. >> i'm listening to you. senator reid said something echoing what you're saying today in a tweet and he's saying it now, if democrats took such exception to what is going on, why are we not hearing more from them before this ruling? the president has exercised 40 times, i checked it just today because we know it can change by the hour, how many executive changes and delays this white house has made to obamacare. the affordable care act. if they saw a problem coming down the pike, with a ruling
9:12 am
from the supreme court, why weren't they more vocal? and they had an opportunity before this ruling to make some sort of a delay in the mandate. we've seen them do it before or some sort of change. maybe they'll do it now because we, the taxpayers have to pay. >> it took two decades. >> is that where we're head snd >> it took two decades to settle down on medicare. this is a sweeping bill, obama ka care. there's a lot more to go before the court. in this case, this -- i happen to be a christian and a very strong one. the idea that i would impose my values on 13,000 people is obscene, absurd and unconstitutional and the court should be bludgeoned for it. >> ironic, women fought this today. >> we don't have time to get to it but they're saying this is a huge win for women. >> why is it a win for women? what about women who want to have abortions?
9:13 am
>> business owners. >> not the 13,000 people. >> they have contraceptive help. >> they can pick and choose because they own the corporation? >> this is not my boss' business. >> it isn't. >> that's what the court ruled today. guess what, bob? said it's not the business' business what these women do. it was a huge -- she doesn't even understand what the supreme court ruling. >> it will be interesting. we'll continue to see this broken down throughout the day and days to come because bob, i think you're right. i think there will be a lot of people who will try to challenge whatever it is. i'm curious to see what the white house will say now. this is a huge punch at the president's signature health care. >> i'll be curious what would happen if there's a jewish couple that started a company, 13,000 people, but they were very strong orthodox jews and they wouldn't allow their employees to use electricity or drive on a saturday. >> well, the problem is that the administration has to keep abolishing --
9:14 am
>> what difference is that? >> all right. the i.r.s. scandal getting lawmakers very heated. so is lois lerner's attorney lying for her to cover up missing emails or is it really just a computer error? and the mom to be who ran an 800 meter race while eight months pregnant, you have to see this. should anyone be worried about her? we'll debate it coming up. you pay your auto insurance premium every month on the dot. you're like the poster child for paying on time. and then one day you tap the bumper of a station wagon. no big deal... until your insurance company jacks up your rates. you freak out. what good is having insurance if you get punished for using it? hey insurance companies, news flash. nobody's perfect. for drivers with accident forgiveness, liberty mutual won't raise your rates due to your first accident. see car insurance in a whole new light. liberty mutual insurance.
9:15 am
ugh. heartburn. did someone say burn? try alka seltzer reliefchews. they work just as fast and are proven to taste better than tums smoothies assorted fruit. mmm. amazing. yeah, i get that a lot. alka seltzer heartburn reliefchews. enjoy the relief.

9:19 am
won't respond to that except that -- except to say he's wrong. it's convenient. this is election year politics. it's convenient to have a demon that they can create and point to. >> a lot to take in from the weekend. who knows the truth, if anyone? >> lois lerner definitely knows the truth. i didn't buy his sob story where he said that her lawyer said she was very upset when her screen went blue and blank. why plead the fifth? think about it. if there's no crime, why do you need to plead the fifth? you can't go to jail if there's no crime and you talk. clearly there's something more sinister here. i don't think her lawyer helped her with this story. i think that was just a joke. if she was so truly upset, they would have been compelled to tell us what happened and again, a special prosecutor is the only way i think to get to the bottom of it. >> so her lawyer there, basically is being accused of
9:20 am
outright lying for lois lerner. the government and i.r.s. practices include keeping printouts of emails involved in decision making. where are the emails? >> i have no question that somewhere along the line, lois lerner and people around her facilitated deleting the emails. issa was damn leer close to selling illegal cars with his brother. they're trying to tie this to the obama white house. they're not going to do it. i think lois lerner and some of her people did violate the law. i have no doubt about that. >> what do you want to see done? >> tonight see issa stop trying to tie this thing to the white house, looking for a smoking gun that he knows doesn't exist. >> what needs to be done? >> true physical they have the evidence, they indict her. >> it's disappointing you can't
9:21 am
say i really wish that there would be some accountability instead of yelling at issa. >> i just said it. i said they have the evidence. they should indict her. she should be indicted and tried. i don't know whether they can go to jail or not. they will probably go to jail. but for issa to continue to play this -- i don't know how many hearings he's had but i think he's a waste of time. the fact of the matter is, if they have the evidence, get her before a grand jury, indict her, take her to trial and then you've got to have it done. >> we have to stop letting bob have the last word here. hillary clinton has some people angry with her recent remarks about her financial situation. now president obama is weighing in on her money gaffs. how doing something like a girl is seen by adults and by young girls. now a new video may change the way you think about that phrase. 
9:22 am
9:23 am
9:24 am
9:25 am
9:26 am
>> welcome back to "outnumbered." president obama is coming to the defense of hillary clinton. she made several gaffs about money including saying she and her husband left the white house, quote, dead broke and she's not like other truly well off people. here is the president. >> hillary has been to this
9:27 am
rodeo a bunch of times. she is in public service because she cares about the same folks that i talked to here today. as soon as you jump back into the spotlight in a more explicitly, political way, you're going to be fly specced like this and she's accustomed to it. over time i don't think it's going to make a big difference. >> in the meantime, there's backlash over the planned speech that clinton is set to give at the university of nevada for $225,000. the president of the student body saying in an interview, quote, our student government asked that hillary clinton returns part or all the money to students back to the university. they said they've been seeing increases in tuition. we've been asking students and families to come back to the table and it's time for private entities to come to the table as well. wow. this story won't go away. they're asking her to return the money but first, what do you think about the president coming
9:28 am
to her defense? they both put their foot in their mouths. >> what else is he going to say? he has to back her if she's the candidate. he backed her saying the spotlight is on you, you make mistakes. i makes them all the time. i think this is a huge problem in light of her being in the news all the time. this money, she has to give it back to the school, give some to charity. that money cannot come directly back to her in any way given what's happening. but i don't think this is all a problem for her unless she faces either a highly populous republican challenger or a challenger like elizabeth warren from the left who all of a sudden is going to highlight the fact she's very established, very wealthy and she's issues are a key problem for her. >> do you think this is a problem for hillary clinton? >> i think it's a probably for the students as well. i don't think they should be griping to hillary they want that money back. i think they should be upset with their school for spending
9:29 am
that money and driving their tuition costs higher. stop saying the message to put out there is being poor is core. i can talk to you because i've been there before. say how hard you worked to get there. you felt what it's like to not have a lot of money or to be in debt but look at where we are now. this is what i want to help you aspire to. we need that message in this country right now. people are hungry for it. >> that message of possibility. you know, i guess the good news is they didn't ask her for the money back after she spoke. right? that would have been even worse. like you were so awful, you need to give that back. >> is it too late? >> it's never too late to give. right? isn't that what the clintons when they had to give back furniture and other things? it's never too late to give. hillary clinton said last week, i don't need my husband to defend me and then he went on for another weekend to defend her. yes, she does. war on women. when you're in trouble, call your husband to dig you out of trouble. >> ouch. >> what a message to send.
9:30 am
>> why do democrats, you love money. you love it. but you never are honest about how you got it. >> clintons put your arm around you. >> none of us are honest, that's a problem. you are just all quick to paint us all as liberals and all of that stuff. i think she made a terrible mistake from the beginning. she never should have said what she said. she's digging herself out of a hole. i used to tell my candidates, when you're in a hole, give me the shovel. they keep digging deeper. there's no excuse for it. it was bad politics. it was not accurate. but having said that, in the university, if i'm not mistaken, that's from a private donor, correct? giving her the money? not the university? >> but they still could have used the money on the school. >> but it's a private donor giving money. a private entity giving it to her to give a speech. i don't know what the big deal is. >> ladies and bob, listen to
9:31 am
this one. what do you think of when you hear that someone runs like a girl? a new ad campaign aims to challenge what some call negative stereotypes connected to girls as they grow up. watch how adults and a young boy react when told to run, throw and fight like a girl. >> show me what it look like to run like a girl. show me what it look like to fight like a girl. now throw like a girl. >> let me tell that one guy, i'll take to you a track and smoke you in a 1,500 meter race any day. now what happens when young girls are given the same request. >> my name is dakota and i'm 10 years old. >> show me what it looks like to run like a girl.
9:32 am
throw like a girl. fight like a girl. what does it mean to you when i say, run like a girl? >> it means run as fast as you can. >> that's right. very empowering. and listen. those girls haven't yet had the chance to see that message out there, thank goodness, and hopefully it can stay that way. let me throw out a stat. many studies show the next 40 to 50 years, the fastest person in the world may likely be a woman. marathon times, the margin is shrinking by the day. it's 10 minutes apart right now, the fastest man and the fastest woman. what do you think about this message? is it effective or do you think it's sending a weak message out about women? >> i think the people who shot this ad, so it's a feminine products ad, you know, from the old en days, right? the max ipad company? really? they're so out of touch. can you imagine shooting this and seeing what the young girls
9:33 am
are doing. isn't this where you go, cut. we don't need the ads anymore. they just disproved their point of this entire campaign by showing the footage of the young girls and the real issue is not girls. girls are doing gret. it's little boys that are getting left behind in today's society. that should be the focus of where companies start to put their efforts. >> they tried this with the pantene ad and women apologize too much. they got mixed reviews. are the advertising companies just not getting it when it comes to women? >> i think they're holding to a much older view that existed of women. they feel like women think -- always think we're weak and constantly need to be told we're strong. women are now able to say, really? when people say you fight like a girl, i say stone in the boxing ring for me. i'll fight like a girl. do you want to step up to that? i don't think you do. do you think we're empowered by our own self-esteem? i wish they would give women a
9:34 am
little more credit. we can handle it. we know we can handle it. do you know we can handle it? >> harris, you have two little girls at home and toward the end when you were watching the girls who ran like a girl, you got a little emotional. >> yeah. mine are five and seven and i'm thrilled there's so many children out there not getting those messages that you can't and they're getting the messages that absolutely the possibility and potential are yours. just grab on to them. the other thing making a huge difference is social media. we're able to connect with like minds now. that's one positive effect. so you know, as girls get older, they can connect with the other girls who like us on this couch, sorry, bob, believe in ourselves, you know? we're strong like that. and you are outnumbered but i know that you see women in a very special light. >> first of all, the idea that they even put this ad out, they were frozen in the 1950's. >> agreed. >> number two, i think having been duked out by a couple of women -- >> it's 12:30. >> i mean before this.
9:35 am
the idea that that kind of message is being sent out, look. my daughter when she played in a co-ed soccer team when she was nine years old used to outscore every guy on the field combined. now, i mean, i think it's absurd to do this. fortunately, most young women will say, this is ridiculous. you know? and they should. and the ad company ought to be put out of business. >> there you have it. >> critical conclusion psychologists made in the oscar pistorius murder trial. what they said about the blade runner's mental health at the time he killed his girlfriend and what it could mean for his future. and remember the military recruiting slogan, be all you can be? why the pentagon says that's no longer the case for a growing number of young americans.

9:38 am
9:39 am
9:40 am
>> america's future armed forces may be too flabby or unfit to fight. that's according to the pentagon which says a majority of young americans ages 18 to 24, a staggering 71%, would not meet the requirements to even make it into basic training. those reasons include obesity, dropping out of school and never getting their dip loem arcs felony convictions, prescription drug use to cope with adhd and extreme tattoos and extreme piercings like ear gauges. is it the military that needs to get with the times? harris, what do you think? do young people just need to get it together now or is the military sort of being ridiculous and saying tattoos, things that involve physical appearance, that shouldn't matter. times are changing. >> do you know what blew my mind about the study, education you can make up the difference. if you're not fit, go on a diet. you can work out. but behavioral issues like drug abuse and these things where
9:41 am
people can't concentrate because of the alcohol, whatever is going on, those are huge issues and if those are affecting our youth in a way it affects our fighting forces and the numbers we can put out there, that's a really frightening detail and one that i think we need to focus on most in all of this. >> when you saw this stat, i saw 71%, i got immediately frightened by that number. and immediately concerned about what do we do here? how do we address this issue? we can talk education reform, talk about making obesity and nutrition a priority issue but has it gone too far? >> it's a cultural problem so it's far greater than just one issue. on the educational point, you look at 80% of kids in new york city who go to community college, need remedial assistance. tattoo removal, oak. we can debate that all day long but i think education is huge and makes it a point that unions are failing our students. they're going after charter schools, they're hurting them.
9:42 am
this poses a huge national security threat. this is a very, very serious statistic and across the board, not just in the military, our schools are failing our kids. when you try to give them a healthier option like a charter school, they take it away. >> sandra, should the military care about things like tattoos or things that are cosmetic? >> i found myself when i was listening to you guys rethinking what i had already decided on the subject and i don't know. i can imagine where bob is going to go on this one. maybe it's time to start -- i'm going to get criticized for this but maybe it's time to start looking at the tattoos and thinking -- some people are saying they have tiny tattoos on the back of the neck and aren't able to qualify for the u.s. army. do we need to open the door if they fall into the right weight category, not abusing drugs? just throwing it out there. >> is it the endurance and the behavioral issues, aren't those the key issues that we should look at jobs for them? >> i wish they had these rules
9:43 am
when the vietnam war was on. they wouldn't have slaughtered so many people. they allowed anybody in with no education and all the tattoos you wanted and 50,000 of them died for an illegal war but leaving that aside and now the attack on the unions, i think the idea that tattoos should keep somebody out of the military is absurd. the idea that people who take legitimately prescription medication for adhd is a disqualification for the military, i don't get that at all. but i think the military has gone way too far here and if they needed to get a whole lot of people mobilized, they're going to have very slim pickings, right? so i'm not sure how many of the brass could pass through most of this stuff. i'm not for tattoos. i'm going to start bob's tattoo removal parlors in 10 years. they're going to regret they have them but what difference is that about fighting? you got a tattoo. what's the big deal?
9:44 am
>> if you need a tattoo removed in 10 years, you can go to bob owes. supreme court ruling on labor unions and who they can force to pay dues. how it can affect labor in america. see the shorts under the skirt? that was before wimbledon cracked down on colored underwear. rules have some people wearing red over wearing white. thank you daddy for defending our country. thank you for your sacrifice and thank you for your bravery. thank you colonel. thank you daddy. military families are uniquely thankful for many things, the legacy of usaa auto insurance can be one of them. if you're a current or former military member or their family,

tennis folks always insisted on people wearing all white but this year they mean it. the rule includes now, quote, undergarments or nickers as the brits would say. one went braless for the match but it isn't clear if she did so because of the dress code. last year a player wore orange undershorts under her skirt. venus williams tweeted out this picture of brightly colored undies. she was eliminated on friday. now, i think i find this whole thing ridiculous. if that woman did go braless because of the rules, it's probably a health hazard, number one. number two, what do the brits have to do with what you wear underneath? i could go further than that if i wanted to but it's just british. >> it's tradition, bob. what's wrong with tradition? do you want everything to look the same and everybody be the same one day? what's wrong to sticking with tradition? >> tradition has to do with

underwear? >> do you expect them to come down on the other side of the thong? we know how bob feels about colored undergar mens. >> i think they're very exciting. they add a lot of luster to the event. >> they don't want the distraction of multi colored bras underneath. look at the bra that venus had chosen for her match. maybe she could have won if she was wearing that. >> if she was less distracted and just wore the white and focused on her game. >> she did. >> didn't they push it a little far that cream and off white is off limits? it has to be white. >> andrea has an interesting take. >> i'm anti-pink panty on the tennis court because i think that they should be able to pass whatever rules they want. the brits are very, very fancy people and they want to keep it all white and it is a distraction. it's a huge distraction to have orange underpants and a lot of these girls aren't focussing -- >> why is that a distraction? >> bob. you're looking at their

undergarments. >> how do underwear have to do with playing tennis? >> if they want all white, it's less distractive. >> when is the last time you could find white undies for women? >> everywhere. >> also. to your point, bob, she doesn't have large boobs so it's not a big deal. it's not like me playing without a bra. >> that would be dangerous for the public. >> we're doing a segment on underwear and i'm agreeing with bob. i'm worried about myself after this segment. >> seriously. i think underwear are attractive things, number one. >> no. >> you look at wimbledon. you're right. the british are just -- god, they're frozen in the 1,800s. what is wrong with somebody wearing orange underwear to play a tennis match if you're wearing that -- i don't think they have to wear the white but that's tradition. >> we'll let you have the last word on this one. >> okay. i'm for colored underwear.
