hannity tonight at 10:00 p.m. eastern. i'm going to join sean to talk about the g.ñmp house and benghazi. tonight at 10:00 on benghazi. tonight o'reilly factor, tonight on "red eye" -- >> coming up on "red eye," just how well is miami adopting to the effects of global warming? we'll go inside the hot new sport tearing up the streets of south beach. plus, how does the president feel about pictures of jim norton being included in the recent nude celebrity photo leak? >> i've met that guy before. but i've got to call things as they are. it's not sexy, it's wrong. >> finally, a man born with giant beer mugs for hands. we'll discuss what you can do to protect your family from this terrible disease.

>> i'm joanne nosuchuinsky filling in for greg gutfeld. now let's welcome our guests. she's more colorful than joseph's dream coat. i'm here with dagan mcdowell. and she's brighter than a highlighter and fits just as well in your purse, it's dana perino, former white house press secretary, one of the thousands of co-hosts on "the five." it's our favorite furry comedian, joe davito. and he's our favorite radio host, sitting right next to me, watch those hands, it's jim norton, the host of "the jim norton show." >> a block, the lead. that's the first story. >> was it bigotry or just business? the owner of the atlanta hawks is selling the team after a racially charged e-mail was made

public by him. he informed the nba about an e-mail he sent two years ago about how they could bring in more white fans. he speculated that the team's black fans scared away the whites and that there were "not enough affluent black fans to build a significant season ticket base." he added -- >> he noted that he wanted some white cheerleaders and music familiar to 40-year-old white guys and thought that the kiss cam was too black. it's not clear where he decided to self-report and many wonder if it was necessary, including kareem abdul-jabbar. in a peace for time.com, he writes that he isn't a racist. he's a businessman asking reasonable questions how to put customers in seats.

"red eye" has never had trouble filling our seats. can we show the audience? that looked great. they always come happy. jim, thank you for joining us. >> a delight to be here. >> wonderful. do you agree with kareem abd abdul-jabb abdul-jabbar? >> i don't think the guy is a racist. that's perfectly reasonable. >> what do you make of that e-mail, seriously? >> i don't know. there's a lot of black people here, does it bother the southern white men? he's not asking in an inappropriate way. >> dagan?

>> wasn't kareem in "airplane?" i'm old enough to know that. i recent this e-mail that the owner of the hawks wrote because it makes every southern white person look like a cracker afraid to associate with anybody that doesn't have the complexion of a aspirin. so he can kiss my ass. why do people feel compelled to write down things, you want to look at what you write in an e-mail. it's like if you have ugly genitals, don't take pictures of them. >> don't businesses need to be diverse? wasn't he trying to diversify his business? >> to that point, the makeup of atlanta has changed in between the census in '90 and the most recent census.

54% of atlanta's population is black in the most recent census. so the population is shifting away from african-americans in atlanta proper. so legitimate questions, just asked badly. >> definitely. dana, what do you make of all this? this self-reporting, do you think that was necessary? >> there's something fishy going on here. i can't remember what i e-mailed two hours ago, let alone two years ago. the way they write the story is that they say he just decided to self-report as if he woke up in the middle of the night and remembered an e-mail he sent two years ago. when the full story comes out, they say he wasn't coerced, but i have to wonder if in the nba, they asked if nibble might have anything that could embarrass the league, would you come out now and maybe he went back and looked and maybe he knew about this possible episode of trying to change the marketing of the team. but i just find it absolutely

not believable that he revealed it on his own. >> he hired private investigators because these stupid owners were so self-ri t self-righteous. >> maybe he just wants to sell the team. s >> i think he's just tired of owning a crappie franchise. if you read the e-mail, it's not derogatory. it's clumsily worded. you have a sensitive topic like race, here's a document, let me free associate for a while and see what i come up with. i have to say this, every time kareem abdul-jabbar writes something, it's fantastic. he's really good. there's a black muslim i would want to be president. >> i want him to be the ghost writer of my future back. the value of these nba teams, it's ranked 27 out of 30.

and i think that possibly with this media buzz, he could get a lot more for this team than it's worth. do you think that might be one of the reasons for self-reporting? >> i don't know if he would do it for media buzz. because being called a racist as a white guy -- >> not even for millions of dollars? >> it's like the most detrimental thing you can do to a person is accuse them of being racist. so he either knew he wanted to get rid of the team or he knew he was going to get caught. >> everybody has to read the e-mail. it's not offensive at all. it's little poorly worded, but we keep saying we want to have a conversation about race in america. here's a guy who didn't say anything offensive to anything, it's offensive to southern whites. >> he's assuming that they're racist. >> if you have a slight twang, man, you've got a bull's-eye on your back. because they will say whatever

they want to. >> she's right about that kiss cam. >> lots of brothers and sisters, too. it's awful. moving on. they remain straight laced. marijuana is becoming more culturally acceptable, but businesses still aren't on board. as "the new york times" reports, most companies are keeping their drug-free policies and will fire employees who dabble in doubies. even in colorado and washington state, weed isn't welcome. a job listing for a mechanic in denver says, please do not apply if you are not drug free. employers say the screenings creates a safer work environment and lowers their insurance cost. but pot proponents say it

amounts to discrimination. said one man who was fired -- >> studies have shown pot use can decrease motivation. take a look at this always stoned rabbit. >> she's running up, it looks good. and she's taking off the pole. >> dagan, is this discrimination? >> you know what? it's up to -- right now it still is, but it won't be in two years. right now it's still okay to go after people who smoke done regularly, but a few years from now, i personally think marijuana will be legalized nationally. i'm serious. i'm totally serious about that. >> i certainly hope so for jim's sake. >> i don't smoke pot. the only drugs i do are viagra

and cialis. >> should that job still drug test? >> i don't mind it. if you want to know if someone is doing cocaine or meth. pot is just come on, it's stupid. >> if you're a customer service rep, don't you want the dude to be mellowed out. >> i'm sorry [ bleep ] i hung up on you. >> and then you won't even file a report. no, it's okay. i'm fine. don't worry about it. >> exact hi. >> dana, do you think we'll see a rise in unemployment because of this? >> probably not. i think we'll see a rise in unemployment because of barack obama. kidding, kidding, everybody. that was just too easy. do you remember a couple years ago, there were reports that people -- employers in

classified ads were saying that the unemployed need not apply. there's a question of discrimination against people who had been long-term unemployed. there are statistics that show if you don't have a job for a certain amount of time, i think it's six months, the likelihood of getting another job goes down by 30%. so should there be a protective class of people when you're unemployed? there are questions about what is an employer allowed to ask. you look at the hobby lobby case. that was a religious exemption. there might be a federal law to legalize marijuana, but a company, at least a smally held one, will still have the ability to say this is against my beliefs. however, i think they're very persuasive, the pot smokers, talking about people that drink, drink on the job. but the hangover thing is important. you think about super bowl

monday. isn't that the day most businesses -- >> i miss that. >> can they ban them from hiring pot smokers? what's the next thing? >> that's why you have hippa laws, protectling people finding out what sort of medications you've taken, especially if you were a depressed person. that's why supposedly they have the privacy laws. i'm getting very technical and not very funny. >> if you legalize it as a medication, you can't discriminate. because then it's you d discriminate against people with disabilities. i think they're just going to have to roll with it. this is the direction the

country is going in. >> i feel like if your job performance is fine and you're not sexually harassing anyone -- >> and if you do coke or meth, that stuff is out of your stuff much faster. >> now it's basically a slob for thc. so they're not proving that you're stoned. they prove that you have thc in your body. >> they should be giving pot to office workers, because companies know they don't -- i think they test your blood sugar on the keyboards. put bagels in the conference room. >> when you hail, they won't send the mail. a new cab company launching in new york city called she taxis will offer free mail customers a female taxi driver.

yes, you can only get a ride if there's a broad coming on board. which makes us wonder -- >> is this sexist? >> the founder, stella mateo, hopes the service there provide a safe ride for women that feel uneasy about being driven around by men and hopes it will encourage more females to enter the male dominated business. another taxi service has just launched for dogs.

>> we really need more laws against dog labor. that's awful. le dana, is this great? >> i was reading a story and the woman that wants to start it, she says are you tired of having to make small talk with cab drivers who immediately say hey, do you have a boyfriend? this has never happened to me. i have lived in new york for three years and coming here for about six. i really -- either something is wrong with me or something is wrong with the cab drivers in new york city. i don't think there's a need for this, but perhaps i'm an aberration. >> maybe jim needs it. >> we all know that women can't drive. >> >> isn't that an issue? >> i don't believe in any type of gender based stuff at all. it should all be based on race

or weight. >> what about medical marijuana use? >> do you feel like this is sexist? >> of course it is. there is the fact that a male being picked up by a woman is much less likely to be hassled than a woman picked up by a male. so somebody will sue for gender discrimination and probably win. if you have a cab license in new york, you have to pick everyone up. so i continue see how this works. >> will this be a good business? >> sure, and i'm your number one fan. and i want to ride in a cab where there isn't a used condom in the back, which happens a lot. >> i've never been in these cabs. >> do you walk? >> i do walk a lot, that's true. >> joe, did you feel upset by this? as a man, you can't ride in

this. don't you want some of the perks of having a female drive snerp >> what about the transgendered cab community? i think maybe the next thing will happen is all the passenger also be subaru outbacks for all the lesbians. how about cabs where the cabbies aren't allowed to talk to you. all those conversations are so depressing, because they launch into my home country. >> i once had like a hippie vegan. not that there's anything wrong with that, but he's like, do you smell this? it's lavender oil. it's not the oil, it's just the lavender, but i think it's the same thing. and i'm trying to eat just vegetables now. and that i think was even worse than being hit on. >> i had one that was into numerology. he wanted to know hi birthday. >> i know that guy.

he does the numerology. >> he'll make everything in your world fit by the time you get to laguardia. >> if it's a white english speaker, i get out, because he's clearly made some wrong choices in his life. >> there was the courteous cabby that wears a tie with an american flag on it. i think he was culled the courteous cabby. >> maybe it's time we got punished by abstention of the female cab driver. >> i know where you're going with this female smell thing. >> okay. on that point, coming up, what

is the most swankified place in town? we find out. but first, get your hate hat on. we hate on isis after the break.

our enemies will burn. but not until next term. the obama administration is reportedly planning a campaign against isis that may take three years to complete. according to "the new york times," the first phase is focused on air strikes. the second phase involves training or arming kurdish fighters. the last phase, destroying the enemy in syria might not be funnished until the next administration. the president said it will look

like a counterterrorism campaign. monday, the white house press secretary explained why. >> the threat that this extremist organization poses to the homeland is in the form of foreign fighters. individuals with western passports that have traveled to the region to fight alongside isil. there's concern about the idea that some of these individuals may try to travel back to the west and carry out acts of violence or engage in terrorism here. >> i would like to talk to the person that spent the most time at the white house, jim. no, dana, what do you make of all this? >> everything that josh ernest just said was true, at least going back to january. you had former secretary of homeland security janet napolitano said we knew about this in 2013.

we knew from catherine herridge, they had it since january. we have a huge freaking problem over here in syria, bleeding into iraq, could somebody help us? what i don't understand is why the press isn't pushing the administration more on why is this a crisis now? it didn't have to get to a crisis point. i find it very strange in a speech where you are laying out a strategy that you tell the enemy what your plan is. that could be an internal planning thing that three years is your plan. but you shouldn't tell the edge michigan that. >> but do you think obama, he says he doesn't like theatrics, but he's telling our enemy and all the audiences around the world, tune in on wednesday, because i'm really going to lay out this plan for you. what do you make of that? >> because as he said of the weekend, it's about the optics. which i hate that word, because it's such a political word.

it's something that no average american would use or say ever. he needs to step up and have a moment where he's in the spotlight. i don't think anything seriously will happen until the next presidential election. >> in terms of fighting terrorism? i don't think they'll have a choice because i think the choice will be made for them. >> i agree with you. in the green room, joe, you said, america's strategy should be to play dead and hope isis goes away. can you elaborate? >> that's inraaccurate. if you have an enemy that takes the long view, you have to take the long view too. fighting terrorism is something that we have to do to preserve western culture. when you've got an enemy still bitching about the crusades, you can't say we're going to wrap things up by october 14. so with an enemy like that, you

kill them now and you keep killing them. you have to kill them a lot of those people until the people around them realize we're not going to be on this side anymore. >> jim, you said we should just kill them. kill everyone in isis. >> i did say that, without my shirt on. i was yelling it for some reason. i think the idea of arming the kurds is great, because we strained the iraqi forces and armed them and they were so great when isis came in. it was magical. we that whole region stinks. >> send rednecks with chain saws. chain saws are scary as [ bleep ]. even without the chain, the noise and the smell and they smoke a little bit. you can clear out a whole country of folks. >> all right, then.

coming up -- >> ever want to scare a boyfriend, take the chain off a chain saw and just crank it. >> would you pate for all you can eat pasta for seven weeks? which man out there wants to buy me dinner? but first, a word from our sponsor. >> let's face it, kids can be terrible, and there's no way to avoid them. it's the relaxing isle of no kids. this offer only lasts one generation.

is america ready for unlimited spaghetti? on monday, olive garden announced lit be offering a never ending pasta pass. i'm so excited. for just $100, card holders can have all the pasta, salad, bread, and coca cola their hearts desire for seven weeks. but there's a catch. only 1,000 of the precious passes are being made available and you're not supposed to share food with others at the table. come on. said a spokesperson, what we're trying to do is get some attention. it's sure to provoke a reaction. here's how one pasta lover reacted when he heard the news.

>> olive garden, known as the place where you can gorge, is taking its offer one step further. for $100, card holders can scarf down all they want for seven weeks. >> i love that. the one on the left is like, i'm so excited. dagan, is there anything more american than all you can eat deals? >> no. it is perfectly american, that's why we're fat. by the way, this is already sold out. i checked. >> i checked, too. >> they only sold 1,000 of them. so mess you if you got in on this deal so you can hang out with a bunch of other fat bastards who smell like garlic. >> they're my people. dana, have you ever been to an olive guarden? >> yes, i can. i love the soup and salad. my sister loves the bread sticks.

but i don't. this is -- it's like charlie wonka's golden ticket. do you know what that is? >> willie wonka. charlie was the boy. >> i'm sorry, that didn't work. i wrote down charlie wonka. >> maybe you should eat the cards. >> i think it's a great idea and they got the attention they wanted. >> okay. >> joe, this only cost $100, though. is that too cheap? shouldn't they have charged like $200? >> i think it says a lot for the quality of the ingredients. it said $100 for seven weeks of olive garden, and i thought you

better pay me cash first because that food is horrendous. actual diabetic reaction? let me sign up for this. it's not even for families. it's just for one gross dude. they say you can have friends with you, they don't get to eat the pasta, but they get unlimited coca cola products. that sounds like a lovely meal. i'm on my 10th bowl of rav yoela. enjoy your diet fanta. >> jim, let's say it wasn't an olive garden. is there a restaurant you would like to eat at every day? >> i like the olive garden. the reason we care about dogs is because we have to clean up the problem. that's the only reason we stop a

dog eating like a pig. >> i would definitely want like a wine one. if they had wine included this, charged $200, i would be all about it. >> i haven't eaten at the olive garden in many years. >> i like it. a lot of families eat there. i like it. >> if you're italian, you have that dish that your mother makes the best. i can never eat lasagna at olive garden because my mom's is just so good. >> i do respect this, though, because they're nipping off the glutant free community. all of those bean poles, gwyneth paltrow.

i'm drunk. >> me too. moving on -- >> the norton portions were always rather chinsy. we had small portions of meatloaf at my life. >> this explains so much about you. speaking of sports -- >> i'm so frightened and titillated at the same time. >> and now it's time for division three college soccer dudes. to boo is tabu. the new england small college athletic conference is banning booing at soccer games. it's the subject of tonight's -- a letter sent to players' pants and signed by 11 conference coaches reads --

>> so no fun at any games. dana, what do you make of this? is this absurd or is this absurd? >> i'm going to go with maybe not absurd. this is stuff you used to learn from your parents. now you have to have the state or the school to encourage people to have nice behavior at a game. >> but this is college, jim. at college, they're almost pro. shouldn't they get used to some heckling. >> they're only banning booing, they're not banning rioting or car burning. that's what soccer is all about. it's a meaningless event, a bunch of dummies kicking a ball up and down a field. who cares? >> and dagan, isn't a soccer field really large? can people hear the booing?

is this for the players or more about the home team fans getting upset and trying to prevent those fights from breaking out? >> they don't have anything else to do. soccer is like male cheer leading. the only reason people go is to look at the legs. male or female, right? >> i have to agree with that. >> so you want some cat calls out there. you want people to yell at you. >> that would be completely different kind of game, and one i would be all about. joe, you're a comedian. i'm sure you get people that boo you. >> i don't like where this line of questioning is going. they're not booing, they're chanted, joe, joe. >> as opposed to what? >> to actual booing. >> this is why we can't compete on the international soccer stage, because we're not allowed to boo at a small college game. the rest of the world, they're

shooting goalies, throwing fruit at people, showing a little team spirit. the united states is supposed to be, oh, we're a bunch of sensitive children. >> is that the issue now? we've become so pc, don't we need the competitive edge and people to develop a thicker skin to succeed in this country? >> the greatest offense we can commit in this country is to make somebody uncomfortable. everything is structured around not making somebody uncomfortable. like that's the whole country, what we're based on. >> i think especially too on like the athletic field, i don't think we should have to worry -- >> jim goes to the first story with the nba owner that is selling. to your point that it's all pc stuff. so it might have offended somebody, so he has to sell his basketball team. >> i think they didn't go far

enough let's say. they should get rid of scoring, as well as those shirts. >> how about just banning soccer, because nobody cares. >> i like it. i like soccer. soccer players are in great shape. that's all i'm going to say. >> they are. they have great calves. >> can they replace the booing with air horns? they need something. >> how about when the world cup was going on, everybody was a soccer fan and jawboning about the rules. >> they just wanted to watch tv during work. >> and drink. >> you get paid to watch tv during work. >> they pay me for that? coming up, we talk about beautiful people. the topic of my autopie ybiogra.

this is not cool. order it, amazon.com. autographed copy.

it's help for the homely. beautifulpeople.com is a dating site for attractive people only

is launching a mentor program for singles that have been rejected. they're calling it the adopt an augustly person initiative. a nonattractive person will be connected to a member to offer advice on looks and style and dating tips. but not even sees all the good they're doing. according to the company's pr firm, a "new york times" writer called the whole thing repulsive. in response -- >> okay, so dagan, i'm obviously all for this. that some homely people need a little help and mentoring. do you agree? >> i have no problem with it, because without makeup and a tan, i look like stu beshemi

with [ bleep ]. except his boobs are probably bigger than mine are. look at the kardashians. without highlighter and without hair extensions, look how they look. >> i don't know. i think we made fun of olive garden for their marketing tactic. i think this is much worse. at least olive garden is doing something productive. i do think joey should have told everybody that's where greg is tonight, he's doing the auditions for people who need mentors at beautifulpeople.com. >> how do you feel about this? >> it doesn't bother me. i have no business going there, i'll stick to craigslist. but it's honest. we don't like it because it's honest. it's an ugly view how we really see things. cosmo, they disguise it, like a

fun makeover for someone. we're saying you look good, you're ugly, do you want to look like that person? >> and those models, not pretty when you get up close to them. >> the big pores are unforgivable. don't you agree? >> i guess if you have a severe eating disorder and you weigh only 85 pounds, you pores look that much bigger. what's interesting is it's a program for people who applied but were rejected. so you got rejected the first time around, then you get an e-mail saying we think modern science can make you less hideous. >> but it's free. >> i don't know. i just wish -- i read some of the pr stuff. stop using the story of the ugly duckling.

ducks don't turn into swans. so what you're saying is, your only shot is if you switch species. >> i mean, here's the trick. take a black and white photo. every photo that anybody has ever taken of themself and posted online, they post like 80 of them before one is halfway decent. >> jim, you have one nostril way bigger than the other. what do you do? >> about my nostrils being big? i highlight it in my dating profile. i'm like, size matters. >> it makes you unique. >> it would be a great story or pr for this, if a mentor and a mentee get together. >> yeah.

>> something like that. >> that sounds enabling. what about the mentos, where do they factor? >> they might need a sponsor. >> that's marketing. >> that's one thing that online dating so its don't capture, fresh breath. >> it's brutal. it's like yes, no, and you're swiping. >> don't we do that in real life though? >> yes. >> you make those assumptions right off the bat whether you like someone or not. >> the brutality of broad daylight will reveal a lot more than any photo you see on the internet. >> i wish real life would be like that, where you just swiped and they flew off into oblivion. coming up, snooping on your boyfriend's phone. that's why i'm alone. and do you have videos of animals? send them to us.

is your phone prone when left alone? according to a new survey, 20% of men and 25% of women admit to checking their significant other's cell phone. the survey conducted by an anti-virus software company found most men snoop because they're suspicious about their partner cheating. and most women claim to be motivated by curiosity. speaking of curiosity -- >> ahh. i don't like that. dagan, have you ever looked at a significant other's phone? >> no, i have not. but i think the vast majority of people do. and the only thing people are looking for is to make sure if

somebody is cheating on you, that the person isn't uglier than you are. that's the worse. it's like, dude. that self-realization. >> oh, gosh. dana, do you have a password on your phone? >> i do. it has to do with jasper. >> you just told america. >> you don't know nothing about jasper. my husband knows my password and i know his. we've been married 17 years. i had a friend who did not resist temptation, looked through her husband's phone, found out he was having an affair and they got a divorce. we talked about this on "the five" before too. is it better to look or not know? i don't know. >> aren't relationships supposed to be founded on trust, jim? >> it sounds good. i've looked a little bit.

i've never found anything, though. i've gotten a girlfriend's phone and sent out dirty texts and accused her of cheating. >> so you have like a way out? >> yeah. >> and were there photographs and videos involved? >> just horrible things. >> joe, say you find something, whose fault is it, is it your fault for looking or their fault for cheating? >> i haven't had to deal with this, because the women i date have those cheap-ass welfare phones. i think it's sad that people feel like this is the state of the relationship where there's this constant level of suspicion. if you want to know what your significant other is up to, all you need to do is send a self-addressed stamp envelope to the nsa, and they'll send you a printout. >> i don't appreciate that. >> it's the same thing of going

through somebody's medicine cabinet. >> you're both creeps. >> we're all creeps. very special thanks to dagan mcdowell, joe, dana. that does it for me. i'm joanne nosuchuinsky. i'll see you next time. right t.

as you know well "the five" is next. huge news breaking in the nfl. the baltimore ravens have terminated ray rice after new video came out of him hitting his wife in the elevator. this all comes on the heels of the first nfl monday night game. president obama was the inaugural press, talking to chuck todd. obama says he is ready to go on the offensive and that does not
