business.com/channelfinder. hello, everyone, i'm greg, along with kimberly, bob and dana. this is "the five." as war as pestilence rage, what's the white house up to? it's not isis, it's ice flows. chuck hagel just released his department's -- with wise planning and risk mitigation now, we can reduce adverse impacts down range. this would be fine if these people could multitask. but they can't even single task. but here they are ducking real

danger. this on the heels of a major study that we greatly overestimated how much greenhouse gas is in the atmosphere. now that we know how much climate change was cause it in the last 18 years. the only things heating up these days are the priests of plan planetary panic. since mr. obama prefers world concern over america's enemies, climate clang became the life pray server for every obama -- career survival to focus on our internal flaws, identity, glutto gluttony, energy, terror, it's two sides of a coin, called american derangement syndrome. no wonder we're vulnerable.

because we chose our navals over our navy. jesse, i'm going to state the obvious, i think it's good to be concerned about the planet, but it's easier to be concerned about the plant and scold skeptics and want to -- >> climate change creates terrorism, last time i checked, all the terrorists came from a desert. it's very hot there and it's been hot there for hundreds of years. i don't think the terrorists care that it's hot. i think what they're saying is blame america, we're creating burning fossil fuels. just go green and the problem solves, but the president has a history of politicizing these departments. the irs targeting conservatives,

nsa going after fox news, what i'm worried about, though, is why is hagel in peru in the middle of a war talking about the ocean? what's going on here and why is susan right out there doing the sunday shows. >> it makes no sense. >> jesse makes a good point, they're almost more interested in finding a root cause for terror than the actual cause we know to be true. instead of saying radical islam is the reason why there is terror, they would rather say it's the fact that we use coal. >> so they don't get to the root cause of the problem. and twitter is a very unsatisfying way to govern. now i can understand, the young people love it. they see a tweet like climate change, okay yeah, good, it's like squirrels in a dpis coe ballroom. it's like a raccoon in a room full of disco ballers. >> this is awkward.

>> i do have a good point, though. >> yes. >> the administration admitted today that they are helding the president's nominee for attorney general until after the midterm, because they're worried about some sort of political thing. why don't they have the presence of mind to say why don't we hold off on this climate change thing for a few weeks. a good attorney general who would call balls and strikes as he sees it would not be -- when -- chuck hagel -- the bird hagued resolution which said america will not be held to any srl of kyoto standard which gore wanted to do. chuck hagel in 1997 was more worried about china as a senator

than he is boworried about chin as secretary of defense. >> president obama picked him because he knew he would do what president obama wanted and that's my wheeling. imagine being a kurd waiting for air strikes to say their lives and then seeing a tweet sent out from obama on climate change, isn't that a problem here, there's priorities? >> it would be weird if we were in the seventh grade thinking he was in art class and it was actually reading class, but it's not. this administration seems to completely lose focus. instead of focusing on isis and the incredible holds they are making, taking over territory in iraq, in syria, the beheadings, the mass murderers, the inni

inflaming of women. why are they so distracted and they cannot focus on what's going on in the world, it's on fire and they want to talk about ice cubes. >> bob, i think you said you had a tweet earlier on ice cubes. do you believe the world's concerns take priority over american security, then you see no problem with what they're doing? >> we just have a fundamental difference on this. i happen to think that climate change is much more important than isis. >> and china? >> china? >> you're always talking about china. >> we have your facts, we have our facts on our side. but that's all right. we're not going to agree on it. it's not worth arguing about anymore. >> you said that climate change is more of a threat than isis? >> sure, by far.

>> when has climate change beheaded anybody? >> there's been typhoons and tsunamis. >> even climate scientists don't say that. >> we can sit here and argue about it, but it's just something that i happen to believe. >> would you say it's more like a faith? >> a faith? listen, there are so many more people around the world who believe that climate change is a threat than you all. >> is that called a fact and where did you get that fact? >> i was not talking about fact in this segment. and by the way, i will bring you in tomorrow a fact. i'll show you that's sis now has les territory than they did two weeks ago. >> are they worried about it? >> i don't think they probably do sit back and worry about it. but do you worry whethabout it?

>> i actually like to think about global warming, it's good for my tan. >> you go our to these beaches with your tennis shirt on and you interview these people about climate change. >> i will and i have, and they have no idea what's going on either. and you kind of sound jealous that you want to come with me to the beach. >> that would be gold, please, please make that happen. will o'reilly approve that? >> i don't think i would approve that. >> do you think it's going to cramp your style? >> i don't know the girls might run in the other direction. >> try to come up with something interesting to say at this point. >> i am not against the department of defense planning and spinning things. long range planning is critically important for the world, i'm for that. but when the defense department says that isis is the worst terror threat that the world has ever seen, it does stand to

reason that that should be the priority. but there's people who think that climb bat change is the biggest issue, i think a lot of people are worried about where they're going to get their next meal. they can't read, they can't educate their children. they are dying because of the way they have to fuel their ould save millions of lives. >> i think the most important thing we mison the climate change debate find alternatives that are more affordable and they could be widespread. >> i did not stay that it was the number one issue. i said more people believe that climate change is a problem. >> this is president obama, i have a sound on tape here, with military leaders today talking about the long-term campaign. >> so far we have seen some important successes, stopping

isil's advance inn irbil, destroying isil targets and fighters across iraq and syria. we're still at the early stages. >> kimberly, isis's ability, to project power and to terrorize with small numbers, it's their brutality and their will, that is driving them. compare that to, say, our will or president obama's will or president obama's fweeting. you see the difference? >> i agree, and just wln to the tones, i get more emotions out of my average book on tape. this relaxing lull will put you to sleep. these are high stakes, i think it's the greatest -- because

they have an aed vance, this isn't some rogue group from the middle ages, even though they behave that way, they have the sophistication and do they where the wherewithal. >> it did start in the middle ages with the religions they follow. one of the reasons that the world is trying to focus on this is because of these beheadings, because of the way they're -- the kind of outrageous behavior they have got is galvanized in the world. i think that's probably the single biggest--when we saw that beheading, the world is starting to come arrange. >> i'm not going to defend kboba as a war president, he is a reluctant president when it comes to this war. >> i think every president is reluck tangt to go to war. >> maybe he's a little bit more reluctant.

>> when jimmy carter says you're too soft, you have a problem. >> great wartime president, jimmy carter. >> we -- actually it was jimmy carter who was the one that developed -- went a long way to getting the russians to decide. there's a combination of people who led to the fall -- it's not a political partisan issue, as you guys try to make it. do not give that to ronald reagan. a lot of people put a lot of blood on the floor. >> and ronald reagan is the kind of leader who would take

responsibility. new developments on the ebola threat. >> and later is politics behind the army's decision not to releet the results of the completed

so far the government is not considering a travel ban to deal what the ebola crisis, makie ii the case it could make the problem worse. but 67% say that the u.s. should restraig restrict travel to african nations. >> there is no reason why we should still be flying, air france, british air has cancelled, these things are going to have the be done and they're going to have to be done soon. >> what is the science behind not being for a travel ban. dr. freeden said it cannot stop

spread, will only slow it. said it's only going to drive patients with ebola under ground making it hard to contain the outbreak. let's look at it in an objective way, not to stigmatize the african country, but to do what's best to protect them. >> at this point, the team has identified 76 individuals who -- >> not being forthcoming about how the disease is being spread. freeden should resign. >> what do we want puppet out there, resign, freeden, how about a little bit of dignity, you're misleading the american public. >> bill o'reilly. he called for freeden to resign, i'm not sure if that's the right move, because we need like a head guy in charge, he has lost confidence. >> obviously he's lost

confidence. bill likes for people to resign immediately. i think probably what's going to happen is you're going to see a few more people to die from ebo ebola. the president won't fire him and you know why, he doesn't want it to be considered a mistake. s this guy's not going anywhere for right now. what struck me, is he said we need to rethink our strategy, no, you need to rethink the strategy, that's what we pay you to do, he's a public servant, he's not serving the public right now. >> after being so black and white, dr. freeden saying we have got this under control, no need to worry. now we have a nurse who's recovering open hopefully, in

the hospital. she was a caetaker, she says she followed the protocol. that's why dr. freeden says we're going to have to rethink things. how much does this hurt the whole effort to contain the epidemic it are we overblowing it? >> bill o'reilly as an expert on what should happen with the cdc is laughable. and there's another man, he's a doctor, i don't guess he's had many ebola cases, i think fre freeden is adjusting to the reality of the politics. yes, he speaks in black and white, and now he's realizing this thing's sort of getting now to become so much of -- people are exaggerating it so much that he needs to deal with that. i don't know why he's got any evidence as to why he should be gone. it was nice to see charles

krauthammer -- why not put a ban on it so those days are over and then you probably won't have another case here. >> well, good question. and greg let me then take it to the next level, which is president obama in his press conference earlier today, he said the world has a whole is not doing enough to contain the epidemic, but the world is not going to do anything. the united states has to lead, right? >> pretty much, yes. as always, that's the great thing is, we're the great evil country, but we're the only ones who can actually save lives. >> we're the doers. >> it's not about panic anymore, what o'reilly was getting at is priorities. we feel as if our leaders have taken their eye off the ball, perhaps the training and the resources the money that was needed for that went to more politically favored ideas, like

obesity and how evil smoking is. how do you untangle morality from politics when your morality is politics. this isn't really a white house, it's a sit in, and i think the reason why people are depressed and a bit worried ask they can't trust anybody, and the reason why they can't trust anybody is the media has enabled to flip the arrogance to block them, like a virus, their carelessness spread like a disease. >> the thing is, there used to be one person or somebody that was apolitical that you could trust, but the problem is nobody trusts anybody here. and by the way, i'm not an alarmist about this disease and i remain confident that this will be taken care of. the fact that the person who caught the disease was a health care worker and not just a roving citizen in dallas, because remember, mr. duncan was

out in the street, and nobody got sick. that was a tragic but encouraging sign. >> peter johnson jr., one of the things he said this morning is that the concern is that if you did a travel ban, it could could increase the distrust of government and make countries less likely to cooperate in preventing the spread. >> in an abundance of caution, why not also employ containing. and until we can help them and they need help and we should step up and tdo it and attack - this guy over here, it's not going to get done correctly. we do have the best minds of scientists and resources in the world at our disposal. go there, attack it aggressively, but in the meantime, seal it off. why would u even take the chance, especially when we were so certain -- they had on protective measures, i at least

want to learn more, i want to have abopen mind about it. but come on, there's a lot of this that we're not 100% certain about and it's a little disconcerting that the one guy th that's giving the blood -- the guy that contracted it, has the skier rum, achkd now has the anti-bodies built up in his system. and you have to match his blood type. >> why does the travel ban have to be all or nothing. >> excuse me for the little tickle in my throat. ahead on the five, the still says the ft. hood shooting was an act of workplace violence.

nadal hassan admitted he committed the shooting -- even his own lawyer can understand why. >> i don't know why they come up with the term workplace violence, workplace violence was not the crime for which he was charged. >> not terrorism. >> they could have elected to have proceeded along that line but the government chose not to. >> he is also concern this was an act of jihad. >> is there any doubt in your mind that this is something that believes in the jihad? >> no question. >> why then to this day does the government deny that this was

jihad, that it was terror? >> i simply can't answer that. >> has he express nid remorsed to you whatever? >> i can't stay it was remorse in the traditional sense. i think he feels that he didn't accomplish what he believed. >> all right, what does this tell you that the country, government, administration is afraid of words? >> yeah, they are. it is terrorism, that means that there was a domestic terror attack on the homeland under obama's watch and that means he'll suffer politically for that, so they call it workplace violence. you know how insane that is, workplace violence, you know how stupid he must think americans are to buy that and how easily manipulated american media is to buy that.

it also when you say workplace violence, it sanitizes the muslim connection. you don't want to blame it on allah, you don't want to blame it on jihad. this guy's totally in bed with al qaeda. so he doesn't want to offend muslims, so he calls it workplace violence, it's absolutely insane. >> no one's being fooled. >> no. >> even the defendant's attorney, dana, or greg. >> that would be the equivalent of calling a beheading a migraine. this fear of identifying evil is the culmination of four decades of emasculating political correctness. the idea that you cannot call something what it is for fear of offending somebody. this is festered on campuses, bob, forever. and now infects the body politics. but now it infects the body politic of the great et cetera country ever. and it might be the only thing that could cause our downfall

because these tenured twerps have made it impossible for us to identify the very thing that shoumtd be destroyed. >> why this loose relationship with the rhetoric? why can't they call it what it is? >> i would like to actually one day the person who made that decision to call it workplace violence, i would love to get their side of the story. that's a heck of an interview that megan kelley got with this lawyer. the trial hasn't even started, how unusual is that for the lawyer to come out and stay it was jihad, it wasn't workplace violence. >> he can't believe, doesn't have an explanation for why they called it workplace violence? i can't believe he gave the interview, i'm glad he did because we got some insight there that really further exposes the truth and the hypocrisy, he has his reasons why he thinks it's okay to go ahead and do that. usually you hold off until the case has been resolved before you go out and speak.

>> it seems like he was setting up for the guy was a religious fanatic and that may save him from the death penalty. but the mass murder charges, obviously it's harder to convict this guy on terrorism laws than it is on mass murder, which will be a lot easier to do and he will be convicted and he probably will be put to death. you got to be careful criticizing not only the use of words, but another law that they -- those of u you at home who have been following the bowe bergdahl case, you know that the investigation has been completed but we haven't been able to get the results. and they have the majority of the information back in 2009 when he deserted and they conducted an investigation, that was a full, thorough investigation and talking to all the people that were involved and witnesses at the time. now they have had the chance to speak to them, greg, and they're still delaying this, what's going on?

>> it wouldn't be so weird, if it wasn't a practice of them always holding stuff back until post election. it's like the guy who waits until he's in an elevator to break wind. it's too late for anybody to do anything after that. they always wait for the election to be over. then the stench is horrifying, then you hear about all the horrible things. >> midterm elections are coming up. >> it's a masterful pr move, and they have done this repeatedly, they say we're going to have this massive investigation and we're not going to comment on this investigation until it's finished. the guy was a deserter and he endangered our men and women's lives in afghanistan. and they're going to dump this thing on a friday, when no one's paying attention, it's going to

be totally whitewashed and everybody knows it. >> but the results might show that he was a deserter or went awol, and we didn't just get him back. >> there's a lot of stuff that would probably be embarrassing. and when i call, i would do exactly the same thing. >> i would have some honor and dignity and say let's just get it out there. it is a shot. because we're talking about people's lives, that's the president's majority in the senate. how does he think it would even help him or hurt him, i don't understand why he cares. they worry more about climate change than they do about this. what could possibly be the holdup? where is it? in addition to that, not only do the families deserve justice, but remember, he stands to get hundreds of thousands of dollars back pay, if it's found that he wasn't a deserter. if it wasn't a dessert, can we

just find out? >> you said if it were me, i would do it. i said if i were me i would not. but it doesn't change the fact of the matter. democrat, republican, whatever, be about the truth, be about transparency, next hillary clinton, got big bucks to give a speech last night for a university of nevada and wait until you hear what the speech was about. on

when it comes to playing politics, no one does it as well as the clintons. hillary clinton spoke passionately about her higher education costs. >> higher education shouldn't be a privilege for those able to afford it. it should be --

[ applause ] an opportunity widely available for anyone with the talent, determination and ambition to learn. >> what she failed to mention was her speaking fee was a cool $225,000. while the money will supposedly go to the clinton global initiative, it still ignites a debate about the top -- extends to the party's fundraising prowess. >> recently the democrats reticence for fundraising was truly on display. >> reporter: president obama headed to his 53rd fund-raiser of the year at gwyneth paltrow's house. >> at the home of real estate

mogul rich johnsrichmond. >> back to back fund-raisers from the home of lady -- >> hillary was dead broke just a few years ago, she really needed the money, she's a grand mother now, she's got to pay the bills, college tuition is going to be very expensive when her grand son turns 18. >> you know what i read was our staff put together a lot of newspaper headlines and right wing blogs saying hillary takes this $225,000 away from university of nevada las vegas, the fact is not a single dime from that university went to her, it was through the foundation by two of the biggest contributors of the clintons. but the conservatives in the right wing are spreading around, she took all this money from the university, and now these poor kids can't have the money. >> she's not going to use any of

that money? >> she's going to give it to the global initiative. i would not down the global initiative. it does a pretty good thing. >> they're taking it. it's still their umbrella foundation. if you're still talking about the umbrella foundation, why not make a significant move by making a donation to show that you in fact are concerned about money. >> they do more in a week for helping people than frankly a lot of us do. >> i didn't say that, i wasn't making that kind of judgment as to whether or not they do other things. i was saying in this specific example it was a way -- >> isn't it a cheap shot for republicans to claim that hillary clinton is banking all this dough, it's a free market, she's going to put it away for a rainy day? >> as a republican conservative libertarian, you have no qualms about anybody getting rich. you want everybody to be rich. which makes you difference from

hillary because she confronts a mob who's envious who believe -- she's so rich now she can wear a pants suit made of faberge eggs. they say they want to get into politics to help. but it's always at the end of the the tenure to help themselves, to get a paltry salary, but when they get out of office, it's nine figures. >> it's all democrats and republicans i might add what cash in. >> politics is power ball lotto for conservatives. >> they cash in when they get out. >> but they don't lie about it. we don't think it's bad, we want you to be rich. you guys don't wanting anybody to be rich but you, you just want the liberals to be rich. >> greg that's wrong, i hope you get rich, i really do. >> i hope i get as rich as rich

richmond. >> i'm sure you donate, do you have e-mails? >> no. >> you're getting flooded -- it's like cyber bullying, they're flooding your inbox, harassing you to do it. >> i can't give political money, but i used to give it. and the democrats got very good at raising money and they raised it for the very people that they demonized. at this stage of the game, in this campaign season, the only hope is to get as much money in these races as possible. >> the thing i john stewart's point is the hypocrisy of demanding funding reform, campaign finance reform. there were republicans in that game, and that does take a

little bit of -- >> they were outspending 20-1. >> it just shows how desperate the democrats have become. coming up, we have all done it, made excuses to get out of something we're invited to, what are "the

have you ever failed to come up with a good excuse as a reason not to spend time with someone? >> jimmy fall -- >> how's tuesday then. >> catching up on law and order. >> what season? >> all of them. >> how about wednesday at 4:00 p.m. >> i can't, i'm braiding my old lady's hair. >> what about starreaturday? >> how's december? >> december i can't, i'm literally santa claus. >> that's you? >> why don't you pencil something in for january of 2030? >> okay, have a good one. >> i don't get out of them, if

somebody invites me to a party, i go, i show up late, drunk as held, i never leave, i throw up in their sink, i hit on the wipe, i hit on the husband, i hit on the grandparents, i break a vase, and because i say yes, i'm never invited to anything again. and it spreads like a virus, everybody knows never to invite me to anything. >> you made the decision to not accept invitations to a baby shower? >> i say thank you very much, i will send a gift, but i won't attending. it's a personal policy. like stewart barney, of fox business, he says he does not social's. i love that, he has a personal policy. >> you know what's the worst

thing about a baby shower? the baby huddle. >> you get asked out by a lot of s.e.a.l.s. navy s.e.a.l.s, what's your excuse when you say no? >> i'm a nice person, and i say yes, and i get invited to do a lot of nice things, charity events, et cetera, i feel horrible if i don't go or make the time, so i go out of my way, so just staying here and working and hanging out. >> what's your excuse. >> i'm peeling my skin off. >> it's great work in the news business, because you can say, i can't, i am going to another country, we're going live tonight. and half the time that's true. >> in my case, i don't get invited to anything so it's not a problem. >> one more thing is up

one more thing, dana. >> yesterday, i was going through this 24-36-hour cold, flu thing. i asked the audience for some help with some home remedies. weird stuff, some good stuff. my mom cut put onions in my socks in bed. lots of tequila, clove, oregano, garlic, more bourbon, tequila, there were so many great suggestions, too many at once. i'm doing better. >> that's just the booze talking. >> i've been looking far and wide for this video, apparently

there's some really salacious video that's going around the internet. i got my hands on it. >> that is me. that's actually not greg. that was last week. that's actually charlie from tennessee, rocking and rolling in the comfort of his own home. he's going to be on dancing with the stars one of these days. >> those of you out there, please let us know, we'll vote and we'll tally it up by friday. this is actually an important day, 50 years ago today, one of the greatest human beings in the world, my hero, martin luther

king was nominated and was endorsed and got the nobel peace prize, he deserved it very much. and i still miss him. who's next? >> i am. you know, a lot of times i'll be hanging out in my penthouse apartment, usually the hot tub and people will say a hey, what does bob beckle do after work? and i'll say he loves to relax and hang out. here's some film of him. >> oh, my god. >> i don't really know. i have heard you guys talk about

it. all right, in the happiness zone of proposals, those of you who like to get them. uh-huh. an air force captain completed his successful mission in front of thousands of cheering nfl fans, he proposed to a cheerleader, in front of the crowd and the good news is she accepted. >> how can you say no? >> look at how charming that is, he got down on one knee. >> if you ever have a divorce, you also have to do that in public. >> let's have a shoutout for fox and friends in the morning. >> it is wednesday october 15th. a fox news alert. new charges against the only suspect in custody for the benghazi terror attacks. new evidence revealing more
