ago. so what type of demons has this child been fighting. not a child any more. i shouldn't say that. here to weigh in on this is our psychologist dr. chuck williams. so sad, the family has been through so much. what do you make of this? why do you think this is happening in such a similar situation, circumstance as her mother? >> right. it's eerie when i got the phone call from one of your producers the other day. i almost didn't believe it. face down in a bath tub in the exact same way that her mother was found and passed away almost three years ago two weeks from now. it's just very eerie and very creepy. it's hard to deal with these issues, just as people ordinary, everyday, average people. but imagine being the daughter of a very, very famous mother whose life and death was sort of captured in front of tv screens and movie screens and cameras. this is something that has

caused a lot of pressure, i would imagine on bobbi kristina brown making it very difficult for her to mourn and to go through some of the stages of grief because people have different opinions about the death of whitney houston. some people are going to say to bobbi kristina brown maybe she should move on because it was three years ago. mourning is something that is very private but when you're public it is hard to go through that private process which further complicates issues and it could have led her to act out including using and abusing substances. >> just last week one of the cable channels was running a marathon on movies about bobbi's life and whitney's life. her daughter had a realty show right after her mom die. that went to my mind when i heard the news and my heart sank like every american's heart sank because we do feel sorry for the child. her dad, bobby is, quote,

inconsolable. losing his former wife, possibly his daughter. doctors are saying it is going to take a miracle for her to possibly survive. how does a family get through? >> i can't imagine what bobby brown is feeling. he lost his wife, ex-wife, in a tragic and unfortunate waip under the same circumstances. now you have his daughter recently turned 21, trying to find her own way in life and now he's hit with a double tragedy a few years after his former wife passed away, it looks like his daughter may be facing something similar. he must be unconsolable to have to deal with this grief again soon after his former wife, whitney houston, passed away under similar circumstances. >> dr. williams, thank you for your input this morning. coming up, if waiting at the d.m.v. isn't bad enough

is president of the democratic group americans united for change. good morning, guys. >> good morning, sir. >> brad what do you say about this, these illegal immigrants overrunning the california d.m.v. offices? >> it sounds like the californrp d.m.v. california legislature need to figure out how to staff these offices. we have a situation where either you're going to have people driving without insurance and without licenses because they're going to do what they need to do to care for their families and get to work. or you're going to have them insured and have licenses, which is going to be better for all of us. i mean, so i think the california d.m.v. and other d.m.v.'s need to figure this out. >> dallas your brother brad is blaming the democratic administration in california they can't operate the d.m.v. operating the d.m.v. or should these folks be getting licenses at all? >> number one, they shouldn't be here. of course, president obama

has made this crisis so much worse. and this is, the unique problem with illegal immigration is it slaps the american people in the face every day with problems like this overcrowded schools and a host of problems. but of course americans, we can't deny that we also benefit in ways in certain parts of the economy. on this particular issue, i agree with brad. if people are going to be here and we're not going to deport them, it seems like to me it is better to insure them and make sure they know the rules of the road. this is a very difficult issue. and if brad and i could solve it on fox news at 6:to in the morning, it would have long been done. but people can't seem to figure it out. conservatives believe that government is incompetent. and of course they administration has absolutely proven it and this is jut one more example. >> the woodhouse brothers

with respect to isis our objective should be to deny them the ability to hang on to territory because that gives them a base from which potentially to plot against us and against western europe. >> of course isis keeps going across the border with syria. we don't want to go into syria and destroy isis because that helps the bad guy who runs syria. >> how are these goals achieved? lindsey graham laid it out pretty starkly and pretty brutally. he says we need ten thousand troops on the ground to stop isis. watch what he had to say. >> you're going to need boots on the ground not only in iraq but syria, and there's got to be some regional force formed with an american component somewhere around 10,000, i think, american soldiers to align with arab armies in the region and go into syria and take back territory from isil. that is what will make it stop. >> he's right. we're at a tipping point.

you simply negotiate hey, you might end up making money in this terrible event. >> what's it worth? >> it depends where you go. if it's easier for you to do it, you're going to make less money. shop it around. a newer phone is going to run around 160 to as high as $300. there is more online. >> all right and go online to his web site cyberguy.com or our web site. by the way, if you broke your phone last night, we want you to send us a picture of it and we will include that a little later on. >> that will be cute. >> thank you. great job. coming up, mitt romney is out. donald trump taking all the credit with this tweet. when i broadly proclaimed mitt choked and would do it again everybody said yeah he's right. trump is here top of the hour. and the mayor of new york dropped the groundhog last year. wait until you hear this year's desperate measure to keep him

>> i would like to share with our viewing audience something that you tweeted out last night right after that. you tweeted, it must have been president obama that called in with what will go down as the dumbest play in the history of football! all caps. same thought process. okay. tell us your thought process and putting out that tweet. >> well, i think it was probably the dumbest play in the history of football. you have a runningback who couldn't be stopped. you had one yard three times to run it. you had plenty of time and you could have taken three shots at it. and the game was overment and you would have taken up the extra clock so they would have gotten the ball back with no time. and all they had to do was run the ball probably once, but they could have run it three times. i think it goes down as the dumbest play ever and compare that to obama and his bad decision making as an example, sergeant bergdahl for five killers that are right now trying to do damage to us and a lot of our friends. obamacare, one of the great catastrophes of all time. it's sort of relatively,

somewhat similar to that i suspect. >> they called it the bergdahl play. >> you could call it that. obama makes bad decisions and certainly that was a decision that will go down in infamy the decision to throw a pass is just incredible. i mean, i can't believe the coach -- he's a good coach. probably his coordinator did it because he wants to show what a genius he is. even if it was accepted, there would have been some time left. the beauty with the running play on top of everything else, they would have wiped out the clock entirely. so just sitting there being a fan and along with everybody else this is no great genius, nobody could previous they did that. >> what were they thinking? what were they thinking when they came up, donald donald with a list of questions for savannah guthrie to ask the president of the united states. remember last year it was bill o'reilly was really holding the president's feet to the fire, asking him to answer a lot of

questions that people had questions about. does she ask him about isis or about important things like beau bergdahl? apparently they taped something else that they're going to run today. but in the part we saw, we saw exciting things like this, here is the president talking about white house beer. >> we make beer. first president since george washington to make some booze in the white house. made from honey from michelle's garden. that's how this originally came about. somebody in the navy mess figured out that you could make beer using honey. so let's taste it. it's been well reviewed. >> i'll take a tiny sip. >> enjoy the beer. you should finish it before our full interview. >> probably good advice. you should have a full beer before an interview. just kids. what did you make of that interview? >> well, i know savannah. she's always been very nice to me of the it was obviously on

the soft side, there is no question about it. i didn't think you were allowed to make beer. isn't that illegal? >> the sense we got was that you asked tougher questions in the board room, donald, than we heard for the president. was that the food network? what was going on? >> it wasn't a hard interview no question about it. we can say we want to be nice at super bowl. so i guess that case could be made. but this was not a hard, hard interview. this was not a grilling interview. >> mr. trump, what was interesting is he said president obama said the first president to make beer in the white house was george washington. it's incorrect. i went on the white house's web site and it's clear as day on the web site that the first president to move into the white house was john adams and abigail adams. >> wait a minute. are you saying the president got something wrong? >> misinformation. >> speaking of presidents, it looks like in the race for the next president, mitt romney is out. that was announced on friday

afternoon. you tweeted this out. your thumbs must be absolutely exhausted. you said this: i will take full credit for mitt romney dropping out of the race. looks like he won't be endorsing trump any time soon. you said when i broadly proclaim mitt choked and would do it again everybody said yeah. he's right. you said he choked on this show last week. >> a lot of people have given me credit for it. he was having a little bit of a free ride. everybody was saying he's going to come in, isn't that wonderful? i remember i backed him and a lot of people did and worked for him and all of that. he choked, pure and simple. he didn't do a good job. the last month he didn't even exist. something went wrong. and i always say once a choker, always a choker, when people do that, i see them do that many times. i watch people. some don't. most do. and i said the last thing the republicans have to do is put him in the same position again. i think that was an easier race to win. he should have won that race and he should have won it easily.

so when i heard he was coming back in, i said that. interestingly, people picked it uñ and they said, you know trump is right. and i got a lot of credit for it. i don't want credit. he did the right thing. he got out. he wasn't going to win. he wasn't going to get the nomination. but more importantly, if he did get the nomination, he wasn't going to win. >> now that he is out of the race, the des moines register and bloomberg poll this morning released this, they were asking individuals who is your top republican candidate pick for president? and here are the results. scott walker is on top with rand paul behind. what do you make of this? >> i know them both very well. i like them both. they're friends of mine. i helped walker a lot. i've helped rand also. i've been very much involved with both of them. i just got a beautiful plaque from walker. he sent it to me 'cause i helped him in his race for governor where he did a pretty good job. he's been fighting and running -- lots of races. they do the recalls. every week he's running another race. he's tough and he's come out nicely in that poll.

people understand that and he's a good guy. but he sent me the most beautiful plaque. i don't know what i'm going to do with it. maybe i'll send it to you guys. you can put it on the wall. >> we have plenty of plaques, too. what's interesting is the fact they're in iowa. he is so far ahead of jeb bush who comes in at 9%. donald trump we thank you very much for joining us somewhere from your empire on this postgamáu(er bowl monday show. >> thank you very much. it's 7:11 here in new york city. time to turn for the headlines with heather. >> good morning. for anybody who is looking behind you, they will see the nasty weather outside and that is exactly what folks are facing across the country. it is an extreme weather alert this morning. let's take a live look from boston massachusetts, the city in the path of 1000-mile storm. icy rain coming down, all throughout these parts. snow and ice making for a rough morning commute. this storm stretches all the way from nebraska to maine. one of the cities hardest hit is

you practice under president bush and that president clinton practiced. i mean, there is not a payback in terms of dollars but giving back five taliban generals, is that a concession? >> this was problematic from the beginning. many of us that have been in the national security business -- >> let me interrupt. we got punxsutawney coming up. we'll get right back to you. spring or winter? >> let's listen.

to the countries that pay ransoms around the world we send a message of hypocrisy. to the other countries like canada u.k., new zealand australia that have solidarity with us, we also introduced a question there. look at the terrorist organizations around the world. what did it send to them? it's confusion. maybe there is an opportunity to do some things and work it. lastly i would say to the families of former hostages like the foleys, like the sutlof. the question is going to be what about our aid worker? they were left behind. >> the question you're posing really is why are they being treated differently? why are honorable folks not being traded for some fellow who apparently may have deserted his service? is that the question?

>> as an ex-military man, i don't really want to go into the bergdahl status. that's going to be resolved by the military. but what i will say is we introduced doubt in the mind of the terrorist organizations now. is the american traveler the tourist, the missionary the journalist safer because of what we did? are our national security interests served by this? the other question is -- >> let me ask you the question you answer that question. are they safer or are they less safe? what does doubt do? does it make us weaker or stronger? are we safer or are we stronger? are we weaker? >> back in july i wrote an op ed expressing my concern as a former hostage policy person and i think it's highly problematic. there are more vulnerable because we've now introduced doubt. we've increased the value potential value of an american traveler tourist soldier because

now the captor, potential kidnappers can say, this is something we might be able to get a transaction for that in the past, since world war 1, we have been very consistent to say we are going to avoid any appearance, and even the optics of this drew concern. look at secretary hagel's comments last week and you start to see some question being raised about the consensus within the agency and the timing of this. >> is it your concern that in doing this, what we've done with beau bergdahl and these taliban generals basically that we're putting americans at risk around the world and that we may increase more kidnappings as a result of this doubt, as you say? >> i think it's a fair question because if you look at the nature of the enemy, they are going to do whatever they can to raise money. they have to have money. but if they can't get cold hard cash, their next best thing is to influence the hearts and

minds. they have a strategic communications campaign. so it's not just isis. it's al-qaeda. it's these radicalized elements that are going to think twice and say, well, maybe we can get some benefit from taking an american or coalition member. that's not what we want. >> should the president go to the podium and say we will not negotiate with terrorists? >> absolutely. if you look at the verbal jujitsu in the press room last week, they're having a hard time explaining -- is it a terrorist organization or is it not? well, the state department says no, the treasury department says yes. the bigger issue here is we appeared in the eyes of the american public to have departed from a well-grounded tradition in policy. so i we do in cases like this is we say we need to reevaluate what we did.

we need to get a handle on where those five taliban are at. >> i think you have a handle on it this morning. thank you for your thoughtful commence this morning of the we'll see you soon. >> pleasure. interesting stuff. >> it is interesting stuff. scary, too. it is now 24 minutes before the top of the hour on this groundhog day, which is heather's lead story. >> good morning. especially folks in those cold weather states. lot of snow. what is going on with the weather? we just went thrive gobble's knob in pennsylvania to check in with punxsutawney phil. here is what he says about spring. >> you can start the twitter #sixmoreweeksofwinter. >> all right. punxsutawney saw his shadow which means six more weeks of winter. but staten island chuck did not see his and there will be an early spring. this staten island chuck is new

portions of iowa. so very heavy snowfall out there. and the storm system, really picking up here and wind in new york city almost blew my hat off there. but again, the storm system really forecasted to produce a lot of heavy snowfall accumulation across portions of new england. locally a foot of snow or higher amounts will be possible. take it easy on the roadways. we have winter storm warnings in effect across many areas across the northeast. the snow forecast to come to an end as we head into tomorrow. but behind that system it's going to get a lot colder out there. near record temperatures and windchills we below zero forecast for new england. let's head back inside. >> you forecast this wind. you need a chin strap. >> yeah. i need some sandbags to hold me down maybe. we're looking at gusts here to 30 miles an hour. higher gusts farther north. >> and you were talking about all that weather in new england. speaking of new england, the winner of the super bowl the new england patriots.

you would wipe the tears and go back to boss stop. now that you've won, what are you thinking? >> god, can't wait to celebrate with my boys. my sons are here for the first time. first time i've ever been in the super bowl. they said if the patriots won, they wanted to go. they won. >> your youth was not l- this? >> no. there was no walk on the field, no getting a hug from tom brady after winning mvp. i got to know those guys and they're so special to my kids. >> there you go. by the way, we should point out that mark walburg actually put tom brady in the new movie that comes out in june "ted 2". and according to mr. walberg he says tom brady does a great job. >> did you see "ted 1"? >> i did. hilarious. i wouldn't take children to it, though. on this monday, coming up wisconsin governor scott walker surging in the polls in iowa for

so how does this shape up the presidential field so far out? here to break it all down is the director of the center for politics at the university of virginia dr. larry sabato. good morning. i know you wanted to start, you wanted to disagree with punxsutawney phil. is that right? >> yes. i wanted to predict seven more weeks of winter. we'll see weather -- either i'm more accurate or this dumb groundhog is. i think seven more weeks of winter. >> let's gaze into your crystal ball. what is happening with scott walker? he's surged to the lead of this des moines register poll. he's ahead by i think six or seven points of jeb bush who many regard as the conventional front runner. what's scott walker doing? >> scott walker had superb timing. timing matters in politics and lots of other things.

and he did very well in his speech before the iowa freedom forum about a week ago, just before mitt romney decided not to reconsider getting in. that meant there was suddenly a vacuum. there was an opening in the for rest a big pine tree, mitt romney, had fallen. so you have sunshine and room for another candidate to grow. and up sprouted scott walker. though i've always thought he had a good chance to be one of the finalists in this race. hopefully the rincon test won't turn out like that battle among the beauty queens. >> that's right. that's my hat right there! what is it about scott walker, the governor of wisconsin that people like? >> look, he's got a foot in every camp. he's got more than two feet apparently because he's partly establishment. he's been a governor now for moving into his second term. he's won three elections. so he's trusted by the political people.

he's also liked by the tea party faction of the party because it's his fights with the union in wisconsin and battle for balanced budgets. the fiscal conservatives like him. all across the board he seems to have a lot of support. >> absolutely. meanwhile, let's talk -- you mentioned this, mitt romney dropped out on friday afternoon. why?ñ@ >> because i think honestly, he recognized that he was unlikely to win the nomination or the general election. i know there are people out there who love him and think that he might have been able to do it and you never know for sure. but i think he was very likely to go in one direction and that was down. yeah, he was leading the republican polls, but it was very soft support. the republicans are looking for something new. and they may or may not find it, but they pretty much decided after mitt romney's two prior runs that it wasn't mitt romney. >> okay. not his turn this time.

going to pull it. it's too negative. and the emotion was so intense that we thought that made more sense for us. >> i thought that was great -- excuse me, i thought it was great and you tweeted and said we hear you. you're our customer and buying our product. i thought that was a great way to handle it. you made a mistake. many people thought you did and you handled it well and came out with this other commercial. wewe wanted to show some commercials from before because last year i loved the one with the super model kissing the nerd. i think we have that one. here it is. >> sexy side represented by bar raphaele. and this is represented -- >> we remember that. see, just like your past ads the new one with the puppy i thought the puppy ad, we played it here on "fox & friends," i thought it was jarring. but i thought it was funny. isn't that, you know some jokes are funny in a cute way and some are funny in a harsh way and

that was just a harsh ad? >> steve, humor is hard. sometimes to get it right is difficult. honestly, i thought it was funny >> i thought it was funny, too. >> i wouldn't have run it initially if i didn't. but i underestimated the amount of emotion that was attached to that moment when she says ship him out. that bit of emotion was enough to make it more important. the interesting thing for us was we got so much attention -- this is an unintended consequence of pulling the ad -- we got so much attention from pulling the ad, it allowed us to have a conversation with our customers about what they do. like what we do for them and how much we know about how hard they toil to do what they do. what great opportunity to be able to run something like that that spoke to them. >> then you created an ad in one

bobbling catch at the five-yard line. that was an amazing play. i thought it was all seahawks there. and then malcolm butler with that interception was something to watch. and then commercials, i was a sucker for the dad things. like the dove commercial. the daddy thing. i think there was a nissan commercial. >> the camry. yeah, i was glad that they did that because i thought it was a real great message to dads out there that you should step up to the plate and be a wonderful dad and special to you because you have great kids at home. >> that was enough, and then we had the interception. but that juggling catch. how many times did he touch that ball before he had it? it was incredible. >> it was amazing to see and it was going to be the end again of tom brady who has lost a couple super bowl because of a catch. >> speaking of juggling any --

you know this better than anybody. any time you interview the president of the united states, you know you get so many things you're juggling in your head trying to make good transitions and trying to make sure you get news of the day. that is why savannah guthrie from the today show who was selected by nbc to host the big interview with the president before the super bowl, that's why she really got to the heart of things people care about on super bowl sunday and that's why they talked about beer. >> we make beer. first president since george washington to make some booze in the white house. made from honey from michelle's garden. that's how this originally came about. somebody in the navy mess figured out you could make beer using honey. so let's taste it. it's been well reviewed. >> has it? >> absolutely. let's see what you think. >> i'll take a tiny sip. >> savannah, enjoy the beer. you should finish it before the full interview.

>> bret, i know it's hard for you to comment on other reporters, but at the same time, for the most part that was quite a softball interview. >> well, sure. i'm a friend of savannah's. i think she does a great job. i think this was by design a different kind of interview during the game. i think her extended interview that aired today, i think had a lot more pointed questions about foreign policy. but clearly this was not bill o'reilly. >> not a smidgen of bill o'reilly. >> what about the stagecraft, the stylized set? it's like they had someone come in at $1,000 a day, set the beer bottles here. we'll have the big thing of beer. we've got chefs working in the back. was it food network? was this top chef? what the heck was going on here? >> they obviously made a decision that that's what they wanted to do for that period of time and i'm sure people enjoyed seeing the kitchen at the white

house. it's a different kind of play. >> and he didn't even get the information correct. he said george washington made beer there. he never lived in the white house. it wasn't even built when he was president. >> come on it's not -- give him credit. >> wait a minute. >> it really bothers me, though. >> the president got something wrong? now, one thing we are going to put one of the sound bites from the president. here he is talking about how he's going to work with the new republican congress. listen. >> my job is to present the right ideas and if the republicans think they've got a better idea they should present them. but my job is not to trim my sales and not tell the american people what we should not be doing. pretending somehow that we don't need better roads or we don't need more affordable college. one of the things i've learned over the last six years is when i tell the american very clearly what direction i think the country should go in, sometimes people change their minds and

even republicans occasionally start agreeing with me. although sometimes a little bit later than i would like. >> it doesn't sound like he's going to be working with the congress as much as -- he's got that pen and his phone. he's going to do what he can. >> listen, he's making bold moves here in the budget. he's talking about things in a bold way that he clearly sees his approval ratings going up. a lot of people are tying that to gas prices and not his policies. but listen, you would not know that this is a president who lost a lot of different elections around the country in the mid terms. it's the first gambit in this budget that's going up today. critics of republicans will say the president seems to be steering the ship here and he's putting out his proposals and republicans are following. so we'll see over the next few weeks how he's paying for all of this is not going to fly up on

capitol hill. i think there will be some negotiations, especially on infrastructure when it comes to improving roads and bridges. >> yeah. we could use some of that. bret we're going to be watching ten hours from right now.

joins us now. good morning dan. >> good morning. >> so i want to go buy some marijuana and i'm on welfare and i've got one of those ebt cards i can go in to an atm, in a pot dispensery, and get cash and buy marijuana. >> right now it's perfectly legal to do that. we're introducing this bill to change that practice. >> why are you introducing the bill and why has this failed in the past in the state of colorado which i find pretty incredible. >> this is a good common sense, good government measure to make sure those beneficiaries can't pull their money at these locations like liquor stores casinos and marijuana shops. it hasn't passed before because it hasn't been in this form rum. we hasn't had legalized marijuana in colorado. this is the first time this bill is being introduced since

legalization. >> i hear some who are real proponents of marijuana say, dan, it's legal. there is no problem with it. why can't folks who are on welfare go get legal marijuana with legal money? is there something criminal about that? >> well, i think the issue is welfare benefits are generally for items like food groceries for the welfare beneficiary's kids. to turn around and use that money in a marijuana dispensery just sort of defies logic with respect to what the purpose of the program is. >> so the question becomes what does it look like now? does it look like this bill will pass in colorado or are the marijuana advocates saying hands off. we should have the right to have dispenseeries providing that kind of service to people on welfare and that if they want to use their ebt cards at the pot

dispensery, they should. is there a strong lobby against it? >> there is not a lobby against it. and i think there is broad bipartisan support for this common sense measure. at the end of the day again, it's just about making sure that the money that is being used is being used properly and withdrawing this money from marijuana dispensery or liquor store or strip club doesn't comport with what the purpose of the money is for. >> dan, common sense talk on an interesting and smart bill. let's see what happens. keep us up to date on this would you? >> will do. >> thanks. coming up, school systems across the country under a snack attack from the white house, but one state fought back and they won. how they did it. and the only man in america who can hang out with cheetahs and have a smile on his face jack hannah. one of the greats.

unwilling and basically left no option. if something doesn't break free, it will spread. >> so how will this affect gasoline prices? let's ask the co-host of "the five," eric bolling. thanks for coming in. >> thanks for having me. >> why are we having this strike? >> so here is the deal the united steelworkers union, specifically the oil workers in the houston area, want a 100% increase in their pay increase. in other words, over the last three years their contract allowed for a pay increase. they're up for renewal. they've been working at this for the last couple weeks and want another 100% increase upon the other increase. so they're look for more money from the oil companies. but it's coming at a really bad time. especially with the oil companies now -- oil prices have gone from $110 a birl to a low of 43 -- go ahead, steve. >> i was going to say they should have done this last year when everybody was rich. but right now the bottom has fallen out of it and they got in leverage. >> here is the way this whole thing plays out.

the free market had the oil prices at $110 a barrel. clearly that was too high. the free market brought oil prices down to where it should be. down to 45, $50 a barrel. the unions say i don't care about the free market. we want to protect ours. we want more of ours no matter what the price is and they don't really care what the oil companies have or make. they don't make all that much money on a gallon of gasoline or a barrel of oil. they make about 25 cents a gallon on a gallon of gasoline. meanwhile, they have all these expenses. they pay a ton of tax. the unions again with their hands out. just like the politicians. how many times have you heard politicians say now that gas is $2 a gallon, it's time to up the gasoline tax. that's ridiculous. >> they say there are safety issues. what are they talk being? we read all the time about people dying on these rig as soon as how much of the industry do they represent? >> i can't give you an exact number of how many they represent. but they're refiners, drillers, transporters, all in united

steelworkers. they are dangerous absolutely. but they're no more dangerous now than they were three years ago or 15 years ago. they're probably a lot safer now with all the safety precautions that things like bp spill made them put into place fort offshore oil pregnants. prices are down. >> that's the situation right now. but going forward, how is that going to impact the people watching right now who are pumping the gas and they think, this is good for me right now. >> so there was rumors of this happening late friday afternoon, this past friday. guess what happened friday in the oil market? after this big massive move down in oil prices were good which by the way is fantastic for everyone watching. >> absolutely. >> almost a three quarters of a trillion dollars stimulus package if gasoline price goes from $4 a gallon down to gallon. we use about 386 billion gallons a year, double that. that's almost $750 billion in consumers' pockets. so what happens when there is rumors the oil workers may

strike? oil is up $4 a barrel on friday. up $4 a barrel on the rumor of a strike. so look, is it good that oil price are down? absolutely. a lot of people say, wait a minute. oil prices down, that means fewer people will work. true. but the industry will get thinner and -- >> if they go on strike, what happens? who performs that work? >> well, they'll have to pull a lot of people out, the people who are on strike will have to replace with workers who may not be part of the united steelworkers union. bottom line price also go back up. >> all right. we're going to be watching you on "the five" later today. what time is that at? >> right about 5:00 o'clock. >> okay. >> thank you. >> by the way, i lost a bet to beckel over that last play. i have to buy him dinner. >> i'd go on strike about that. thank you. still ahead, how hotels can track you down if you're stealing towels. >> and the governor of texas declares today chris kyle day.

good morning to you, sir. >> good morning. >> good morning to you all. >> we've all seen the movie. it's a record breaker. it's the highest grossing war time movie of all time. why did you want to make this chris kyle day in texas? >> several reasons. today commemorates the day that chris lost his life. chris was a texan raised here, died here. he is a quintessential texan but more importantly than that, he's an american hero. we need to understand that we need american heros not just as people to look up to, we need american heros to protect us from evil by what chris kyle did. in the proclamation that i will be issuing here at noon in austin today i'm recognizing as chris would insist not just him, but the fact that he is the face of so many other military heros that we've had in this country. those who risked their lives, those who will do things that

most americans could not even comprehend to make america a safer place. america should honor our heros like chris kyle. >> well said. have you talked to his wife about this? what was her reaction when she found out that this is his day? >> i did speak to his wife. she was tearful and joyful and respectful. she wanted to make sure that i did also honor his fellow soldiers as chris would insist. she's grateful for what he did for this country. she still suffers through the loss today as an anniversary of the loss of her husband. but she knows that she and her family are a part of american history because together, they have made this world and this country and this state a better place. >> absolutely. it is hard for us to put our heads around the fact that that was two years ago that he lost his life because he was here in the studio not that long ago.

governor, i want to ask you about the criticism. some people like dr. howard dean who didn't see the movie, but still he criticized, got bill maher, michael moore and other characters like that. what do you make of their comments regarding chris kyle? >> well, for one, if you see the movie, you see the touching way in which chris went about his business and his commitment to protecting his fellow soldier. his commitment to the country and what we need are patriots like chris kyle. frankly, the reason why all these other people have the first amendment right to criticize chris kyle is because he had the guts to stand up and defend this country and its constitution. so they should all be on their knees thanking chris kyle that we have the united states constitution and the freedoms that we have in the nation to even criticize one of our soldiers.

>> well said. the governor of the great state of texas, greg abbott, who today will sign the proclamation that today is chris kyle day in that state. thank you for joining us from austin. >> thank you, governor. >> thank you. >> it's great you're doing that. coming up, did you see what just happened with ainsley? things got a little wild and hairied. we got details on that. ♪ ♪ >> do you ever now, looking back, have any regrets at all about anything that you did? >> yes i do. that's the people i couldn't save. ♪ ♪
