o'reilly.com. the spin stops here because we the spin stops here because we are looking out for you captioned by closed captioning services, inc. . >> sean: the obama administration is slamming goldman sachs with a lawsuit why is the administration filled with so many of the banking giants former employees? former goldman partnerç gary ginsler is head of the president's kphady futures trading commission. more outrageous, geithner deputy mark patterson who oversaw the tarp bailout is a former goldman sachs lobbyists. rahm rahmbo dead fish emanuel received $80,000 from the bank during his congressional tenure. the president will march to new york city tomorrow to announce his plans for wallç street reform. joining me with reaction to this is the author of the "new york times" best shelter

culture of corruption, michelle malkin. he's going to lecture them. meanwhile he's got all these connections a million dollars in donations from geld man to his campaign. all -- from goldman to his campaign. all these people who work for goldman. audacity of hope, corruption, what would you call it? >> just plain sheer audacity, sean. this white house can no moreç disown itself from government sachs than obama can from chicago politics thiser intertwined. goldman sachs which has rightly earned that moniker, government sachs has had tentacles in administrations, both republican and democrat it is a bipartisan problem that you've had these politicians enable failing institutions, corrupt institutions. those politicians are every bit as responsible as the wall street money menç that they are now department going. it would be wise for -- demo

-- demo goinging about. it would be wise this big haranguing by obama to have a parade of all of the faces ginsler during his congressional nomination hearing was asked about his own specific role in failing to support oversight of credit defaults. ì%q worked for tax cheat geithner and apparently for ginsler. with where is the accountability for this bad behavior? >> sean: president is asked about the donations he got almost a million dollars in this case. his answer was i got a lot of money from a lot of people. he says vast majority i got were from dough forces. the question is, in this -- were from small donors. the question is, i thought this was a new era, new time. heç dismisses it, everybody else does it. this is the way i had to raise money. why wouldn't he give the money back former exception sake?

>> well, a bona fide agent of hope and change would have done that but we know all long as he was campaigning, that this was all a facade. now he's completely toppled from his high white horse of "reform" and i think again what the republicans should do, whatç conservatives and true believers in good government should do, is turn the tables on some of those opportunists, democrat candidates who are demanding their republican opponents return money from geld man saks but not their own commander in chief. it is goaling that alexi giannoulias is himself took part of a bank nowç haranguing his republican opponent mark kirk who gave in and returned his goldman sachs donation. >> sean: the president made the statement that we have the

toughest ethics rules that any president has ever had. he said in the campaign that if you leave his administration, that you wouldn't be able to lobby the administration for years. the lawyer representing goldman sachs craig working for him up until january. i guess i'm a little perplexed.ç it seems like he can say anything, break the promise then never get called out on it. what has happened to media in the country that they ignore it? >> you know what, we ignore the lame stream lap dog media the fact is, despite all of the water carrying that has gone on for the last year and during the campaign, the word is getting out there, he is being held accountable in his poll numbers. the fact people do see corruption as one of theç top issues in 2010 and 2012. he can't keep saying these things with a straight face when all of the evidence is to the contrary. he keeps patting himself on

the back and how his lobbying reform is when everything flies in the face of that >> sean: based on the american people are beginning to see he's more radical than he projected himself during the campaign. he's not talking about jobs. he's not talking about health care. the american)people have concluded he's failed in both of those areas. now he moves on to the so-called next fasty, the next crisis, this banking -- next catastrophe, next crisis, this banking reform. durbin said timing couldn't be per in terms of passing legislation and using goldman sachs as an example for the american people about why they need to pass this reform quickly. do you see a pattern in terms of the fear mongering that the president uses to pass justç about every piece of legislation he has? >> of course. that is an ideological tool straight inspired from

playbook rules for radicals to create constant crises to create this momentum for reform that is is going to cause more harm, do more harm than good if you look at the fineprint of this so-called reform, what it would do is institutionalize and make permanent fi%ancial bailouts. which i think is the perfect swan song for corrupt-o-crat chris dodd. >> sean: he took a million dollars in donations, harry reid took money, rahm emanuel took money. then craig representing geld man sakses. dick gephardt lobbies for goldman sachs, tom daschle represents companies on wall street. eric holder onceç represented and lobbied for global crossing. how do they make the case they are against cronyism when almost every member is involved in some capacity? >> yeah. what they do is what rahm

emanuel did the other night. to meet in secret and behind closed doors, all of those so-called fat cats who know they are going to get beaten up in public but will be taken care of behind the scenes. that's now this administration has operated rfm day one. the way to remedy that is get rid of the corruption. you cannot reform. the only way to do it is reduce the size of government. >> sean: is this as some are suggesting, barack obama's enron or do they get away with it in the end? >> i think that we have to keep screaming at the top of our lungs as long as they keep screaming fat cat and demoç goinging this. when you compare bush enron to obama enron scandal million in con waougss -- contributions from goldman sachs versus about 150,000 in donations

from enron. yet, the liberal media the press the establishment hung that albatross around bush's neck. i don't think he pushed back far enough on it. that's what the republicans and conservatives have to do in this case, push back h@bd. >> sean: michelle malkin, thanks appreciate the. plenty more coming up, straight ahead. controversy erupts ahead of the nfl draft. scouts reveal stanford's toby gerhardt could be passed over because of his race. so much more transparency the white house press corp barred from covering an obama protest. plus, the republican who couldç win in the president's home district in hawaii. much more hannity, straight ahead.

>> sean: the nfl will kickoff the 2010 draft tomorrow night here in new york city. one of the top prospects is turning someç heads with comments that he made about how his race might impact when he is drafted. stanford running back toby gerhardt told sports reporter that he believes his race has played a part in some of the nfl organizations that he has met with ahead of the draft. gerhardt says, "one team i interviewed with, asked me about being a white running back. they asked if it made me feel

entitled or like i felt like i was a poster child for white running backs. i said no in%ru]áu playing ball, i don't think about that" more startling comments from a long time nfl scout who said, "he will be a great second round pick up for somebody but i guarantee you if he was the exact same guy but was black, he would go in the first round for sure." here was reaction to the developing story from the philly enquirer, stephen a smith and sports college football analyst spencer tillman good to see you.ç your initial thoughts on this? this is race-related. if this was white, black, switch it around. >> it race-related because we are talking about a white house running back. i don't believe that not going to be a first round pick. believe he's not going to be a first round pick because he's running a 4.5 instead of 4.3.

>> sean: you are the better sports analyst.ç the closest heisman vote ever. he's number two. why is he not number one in the draft? >> first of all there are a bunch of heisman trophy winners that are busts in the nfl. don't look at me that tway this is sports. >> he's making a good point. >> toby gerhardt ran a 4.5 he has run some -- some linebackers that are aspiring to be in theç nfl or some in the nfl run that kind of speed. when you look at cj out of clemson he runs a 43.67. >> we live in a world of images and impressions. longtime nfl scout that made that comment he's a long time scout. if he can make that assessment we have a problem. toby gerhardt responded to

what those comments said. we live in a world of images when you writeç the script the that toby gerhardt is reversed in the role. he's like a minority who finds him is self on the opposite end of discrimination.÷yñtz racism is prejudice plus power. i don't worry about somebody who has a preference. i worry about the individual a personnel individual who has the power to affect the outcome of my economic standing. >> i look at the game. when is the last timenyou saw a white superstar running back? again, we are looking at a guy and they are looking at his numbers. he was great at stanford. >> sean: if we look at the dictionary definition of racism are you suggesting based on somebody's race there's assumption there's a superior athlete? >> no, what i'm saying is the man ran a 4.5 at the scouting

combine. you look at the history ofç the nfl. >> what is your point? >> the last modern day running back, riggins, james other than that all of your scars. >> what is your point? the fact that he's an outlier means i'm going to be -- if i have a need in running back and i'm going to let this kid slip past me 230 pounds, -- >> takes a lot of hits and they are looking at the longevityç of him. >> sean: you are arguing two points. you are arguing based on the merits. he came that close to the heisman and has a good college record that he racked up. >> some people are projecting -- >> sean: issue of race was brought up to him by the nfl teams and comment by the scout i'm saying if these were comments made by african-american what would

the reaction be? >> you are talking anç nfl scout bringing this up [ talking over each other ] >> what i'm saying is, if toby is addressing the issue because he feels he's been asked questions and he has reason to feel that way i'm saying it is valid. but i'm looking at his game and i don't believe because he's white that's the reason he's not going to be a first round pick. >> sean: it seems basic either you've got the talent we see it on the field or we don't if a sportsç commentator makes a comment such as this what happens? >> reverse stereotype, reverse racism. >> sean: agree? >> absolutely. >> 25 years ago we had warren mean all-pro, hall of famer, he didn't get drafted, mvp, rose bowl, he had every accolade had to go to canada to establish himself to come back in. years later now a white player not playing the quarterback position but finds himself in

aç position where he's being judged and maligned by individual who calls him a long time nfl scout that is institutionalized perceptions. >> you are talking about the comment from the scout. i'm saying when you bring that into the equation, you have a valid point. knowing football the way you do, look at the brand of football this kid plays and the position we are talking about. the quarterback position was considered a cerebral position and we know stereotypes that came with that wyt% african-americans, the running back position, can you run, block? >> this kid is late first round, second round pick in my opinion. i talked to jim haubaugh his coach he believes he will be a second round pick. for the scout to speak that's problematic. significant scout in the best position to make an assessment about him because he too was a great runner. >> i spoke toç three scouts who

say that didn't that -- deny played any part and whoever said that was foolish. >> there is not enough evidence to convict him now. >> distinction between racism and prejudice is this. prejudice plus power. when you act on your bias that is problematic a team is there with a need for quarterback or running back at 15, 20, whatever the number may be and they pass him up. >> you know it has to beç about what type of running back? i need a power back -- >> sean: good point. they need the running back with his track record -- >> if that scout, i would love to know if that scout is on that team that passes him up. if that is the case that is a racist scout and it's a racist organization. >> i agree with that >> sean: thank you both for being with us. more hannity coming up, straight ahead. >> either helpç me or -- >> sean: rare video of the

1954 showdown between ronald reagan and james dean. meet the gop candidate poised to upset democrats in the president's hometown. >> i'm off the teleprompter. >> sean: what happens when the vice president goes off script? we have the tape. that plus late breaking details on the possible divorce of tiger and elin woods. hannity continues, straight ahead. 5%5%%%5%5%%%%%5$5$%$%$$$e$o$dc@] bobby sinclair.

>> sean: tonight in hannity's america. the white house press corp up in arms today after they were barred from covering a gay rights protest outside the white house yesterday in what has been described as rare and unusualç move police closed pennsylvania avenue and lafayette park during the protest. the closure stopped reporters from further covering the activists speaking out against

don't ask don't tell and that policy. take a look. >> back off! park's closed! >> have you seen them do this before? >> let's go, back upç, park's closed! >> sean: you can hear the reporter asking if this has ever happened before? what we can be sure of if it happened during the bush administration the left would still be talking about it this very day. there are new indications that the democrats will stop at nothing to push their radical agenda through congress. whether it is cap and tax or immigration reform, it is all on the table for the left thanks to the return of the controversial process known as reconciliation. accordingç to senator cardin democrats believe their budget resolution has been written in a way that gives them authority to use reconciliation to pass what he calls energy legislation and

more in 2010. cardin says, "there are different areas it could be used." i think he should stop by senator byrd's office to hear what he thinks about all of this. >> it is time for the abuse of the reconciliation process to cease. weç should not be using expedited proceeders to take up measures that worseen the fiscal situation of the nation and that have far reaching profound impacts on the people. the reconciliation was never, never, never, intended to be a shield to be used as a shield for controversial legislation. >> sean: never. pretty strong words coming from the longest serving member of congressç in our nation's history. if you like contests you may want to enter this one sponsored by the epa. offering $2500 to the individual who makes the best

video about why federal regulations are good. the agency's press release about the contest notes, almost every aspect avid's life is touched by federal regulations." wait that is supposed to be good? tennessee congresswoman marsha blackburnç is outraged and vowing to make an unorthodox entry into the contest highlighting how regulations can be harmful. she wrote a letter to the anointed one arguing against the use of taxpayer dollars as prize money in an era of ever mounting debt a $2500 prize for a youtube video is not the best use of taxpayer dollars. i'm sure all members of team obama will make great entries. they love big government. finally, a new video of ronald reagan has been unearthed fromç the former president's days at general elect trick. during his tenure there he -- electric. he hosted the show general electric theater which became the country's top rated sunday night tv program.

>> sean: in under a month republicans could be celebrating the pick up of a house seat in the hands of democrats nearly two decades. more interesting this seat happens to be in president obama's hometown district. there you see the house the anointed one spent part of his childhood. for years the area has been a democratic stronghold that could change. a special election will take place may 22nd to fill the seat previously held by neil abercrombie now running for governor. could the president's old stomping ground be sending a republican to washington, d.c.? joining me from honolulu city

councilman and member of the u.s. army reserve, charles welcome to the program. thanks for being with us. >> thank you for having me on. >> sean: aloha, thank you for being here. apparently, democrats think a lot of your candidacy national democrats have launched massive attacks you. tell us what they are saying about you? >> i guess it is a good sign democrats are spending hundreds of thousands to tear down my candidacy. sure sign they are afraid what the voters of hawaii may do. some attacks have been that i supposedly favor shipping jobs overseas. the reason for that is because i signed a pledge not to raise taxes. it is utterly prepros -- preposterous claim but a sign of how desperate the democrats are. we can win. if we win here in hawaii it makes a profound statement for

the republicans to take back control of the u.s. house of representatives this coming november. >> sean: it seems the biggest issue with the campaign committee their attacks is that you oppose the stimulus plan. you have gone on record saying you have never voted for a tax increase. never supported wasteful government spending. we have chronicled in two specials on this program the government waste as it relates to the stimulus. i would think this is a favorable issue for. it is the only thing -- go ahead. >> sean, it clearly shows the desperation. i think of the majority of congress and how they are taking our nation in the wrong direction. my candidacy is built on a simple premise that i understand every single dollar that the government spends comes from a family like yours. if i'm fortunate enough to you get elected to congress that is something i will never forget. that simple statement, unfortunately frightening and scaring the national

operatives in washington, d.c.. much more reason why we need to change the direction of congress. because their mentality of spend, spend, spend, if that doesn't work spend more is doing a great disservice to the american people and i look forward to bringing as much to the people of hawaii in this upcoming election. >> sean: i like everything that you are saying. >> thank you. >> sean: if congress would spend money as if it was their own i think they would be far more fiscally responsible. the question is, -- go ahead. >> no, i was going to say you are right. that's why we desperately need things like earmark reform. moratorium on pork congress is spending. balanced budget amendment. what we don't need is another stimulus package or a one trillion dollar take over of the health care industry. >> sean: this seat has been held by a democrat for two decades. do you think the environment

is similar to massachusetts or new jersey? do you think could be the year and what do the poll numbers show? >> absolutely. we are extreme sighted about this campaign. you know the poll numbers the only poll number that counts is the one taken by voters on election day. some of the recent polls show my campaign is either tied for the lead or joying a razor thin lead. the important thing is we have a great message. that it is more important toe electric a congressman who wants to hold down your taxes and let you keep more of your money or the congressman who wants to spend more. sean if you are a liberal you wake up in the morning and say i'm not paying enough in taxes, i need to pay more. i like the message of fiscal responsibility. >> nobody is stopping you from paying more taxes. >> sean: i den have any change left. that's another story. good luck all the best to you.

>> thanks i appreciate it. i invite everybody to visit my website djou.com. let's do this next time on wikiki beach, all right? >> sean: we'll get on that as soon as possible. >> aloha. >> sean: aloha. time to check in with greta. >> greta: wait a second. since you just interviewed him i probably should interview him next so i will go to hawaii. you just did the interview, you don't need another interview with him. >> sean: you know what, i locked this next one in. you can have the one after. maybe we can did a joint interview, we have never didn't that before. >> greta: that would be a first. tonight we have karl rove, and what president obama doesn't need, a democratic congressman putting the squeeze on name congressman is here, plus much more. see you in honolulu. >> sean: i can only hope.

are blessed. my hair could be gone in five years i'm going to keep it in a box. >> sean: more than i want to know democratic party have an enron problem? president is going to lecture wall street about the evils and corporate malfeasance and mismanage doesn't begin to compare to government malfeasance and mismanage and corruption, but that's another issue you got all the presidents, daschle, gephardt, reid, obama, rahm rahmbo dead fish ed to goldman sachs who are they to lecture anybody? >> the government for whatever since they committed never took us into a near depression, wall street did that second, big money is all around. the recession was caused by failures, the housing market bubble that exploded on wall street, bad, bad mortgages that became bad securities.

>> sean: it was caused by the government insisting banks and financial institutions give loans to people who could never pay it back. >> check with the people who are rating agencies. people packaging bad mortgages, selling bad mortgages so they can make fees. your point is the democrats take lots of money from wall street and how is he going to show up and lecture them. >> sean: should he give back the money? >> no. should bush give back money because henry paulson was bush's secretary. >> sean: hannity fox news alert. bush isn't president. this is his debt, his deficit. can we stop -- >> the fact that the economy took a dive under bush. the fact that bush did the first bailout, i should ignore that >> sean: bringing us down the path to economic ruin is his fault. >> i think he's going with a blank cheque to wall street and reimburse that money he --

10 times as much went from goldman sachs to obama than enron money went to bush that's a huge disparity if you are talking about bad guys >> i think you are both right. i hate to see you argue, it is like watching my parents argonaut saying you are older. -- my parents argue. not saying you are older. >> sean: they forced them, they legislated. >> then you have the banks, a problem. here's a bigger issue, most of america, including myself have no idea what is going on with this stuff because it is not taught in schools. we have home ec, when we should be having ecec. >> sean: economics 101. >> exactly >> sean: if these allegations are true, they -- there will

be the proper penalty we have laws, rules on the now. that's not the point. i think for barack obama to take all this money from wall street then to lecture the world that wall street is a horrible place and banking industry is horrible when it is so end says it is phone >> no politician, republican or democrat, they all take big money from wall street. leslie -- leslie says 10 times wall street is 100 times the size of enron. >> let's focus on goldman sachs. around treasury is called government sachs. what is interesting this week in a senate finance committee the special inspector general for the government bailout said he may start probing whether securities sold by goldman sachs lead to losses for aig and if taxpayers were victims of fraud.

they are you pulling on something that is bigger. >> sean: this is how incestuous it gets greg craig now representing goldman sachs he has all his connections in the white house. >> tim geithner is tied into all this and he's bailing out wall street. you know what, it was republicans that let tim geithner slide when he wasn't paying taxes. >> sean: there were people screaming like sean hannity. the head of the irs has no business telling the rest of us to pay. >> how come republicans on the hill didn't say that. >> if you apologize everything is okay. i think the investigation is coming at the right time. i think it is nice because then obama can say, all these guys worked for me but it is not stopping an investigation. >> >> sean: good point. >> to be fair where there is smoke there is fire.

>> sean: we continue with our great american panel. the arizona legislature passes this measure the toughest on illegal immigration in the country. it authorizes local police to stop and check the immigration status of anyone they think is in the country illegally. we got a poll about.

arizona voters favor it 70-23%. what are we to interpret from that? >> not much. reactionary politics, people are upset about immigration we don't have any immigration reform. saw the same poll that said 54% of just republicans think is going to lead to civil rights violations. i got to be sensitive to this, because i have a friend, an irish friend, sean hannity, i don't want people in new york stopping you and saying, hey irish kid are you here illegally or not because you are walking down the street and look irish. >> sean: how do we solve a problem where we don't control our borders? >> immigration reform. >> sean: people don't respect our laws. the answer proposed by washington we give everybody that broke the law a pass. >> you know, >> sean: you pay a snail fine, excuse me. you -- you pay a small fine, excuse me.

criticism. >> hear what i said about irish in new york? you know lots of irish illegal immigrants are in new york. you don't think there are lots of irish blonde blue-eyed people in new york city never get stopped and say are you illegal? >> sean: i support people coming from around the globe. >> god bless. >> sean: but you to come legally. if you don't come legally, you go home. does that make me a mean person? >> no, but it does if you say i'm going to stop everybody who looks irish or has an irish accent. >> sean: we arrest people for murder and don't send them back for crying out loud. >> well you should for murder. why done you support immigration reform? >> sean: i do but it is amnesty-lite. if we opened up our borders tomorrow the entire world would want to come. we have limited highly coveted slots why give it to people that didn't respect our laws?

>> we need immigrants we need their energy, their talent. >> sean: if you came illegally, go home. >> okay fine but we got 12 million. >> sean: people say i'm mean. here illegally? >> sean: bus, train, plane. >> until you make it easy to get in legally you have to make it as difficult as possible for them to get in illegally. >> sean: what's the point of a new law when the people who broke the old law will get a pass and stay? >> that's part of the problem with the reagan amnesty. the truth be told the economy goes south so do the number of illegal immigrants who come to this country. federal government is not doing its job putting a financial burden on the states to do their part. >> sean: we did this debate earlier about gerhardt longtime nfl scout insisted the fact that he is a white running back will prevent him from going in the first round. is that a form of racism?
