>> alisyn: stick around, we'll talk to that great grand dad and his great grandson in the "after the show" show. >> clayton: donald trump, rick and storm, marco rubio tomorrow morning and i'll fill in for steve, tomorrow. steve, tomorrow. >> alisyn: have fun! captioning by, closed captioning services, inc. >> jamie: good morning, everybody, the republican presidential candidates, facing off on foreign policy. this is the focus of last night's g.o.p. debate in south carolina. it is great to have you here, i'm jamie colby. >> eric: and good morning, i'm eric sean and welcome to america's news head quarters, on this sunday morning. the candidates giving their takes on topics including eastern's nuclear program, terrorist interrogations, water boarding and the war in afghanistan. chief political correspondent, carl cameron live in greenville, south carolina. with the very latest, good
10:01 am
morning, carl. >> reporter: hi, eric. they went down the panoply of foreign policy issues and there wasn't a lot of great news made last night, there was an opportunity for the candidates to deal with the complexities of international affairs and hadn't been the exclusive topic of any of the debates and some of the candidates, an opportunity to flex their muscles on issues they have-nots had an opportunity for and it was an opportunity for michelle bachmann as the member of the house intelligence committee, routinely talks about international affairs on the stump, because this is an economics and jobs campaign. and, has not gotten a great deal of attention, but last night went after president obama, very aggressively and suggested that there is an international conspiracy afoot, to go after israel, and nuke it, and president obama es not doing anything about it. listen to this: >> the next commander-in-chief has to understand from day one the intricacies happening in the middle east and this is a dangerous time and if you look
10:02 am
at iran and pakistan and the links with syria, because iran is working through proxy, like syria, through hezbollah, through hamas, it seems that the table is being set for a worldwide nuclear war, against israel. and if there is anything we know, president obama has been more than willing to stand with occupy wall street but has not been willing to stand with israel. >> reporter: very very, tough stuff and she has not had a breakout moment in a debate in a number of them, this is the tenth we have seen and yet, even with a couple of very, very strong performance moments last night, the campaign still complained that she didn't get enough attention and questions because she's dipped in the polls, low single digits and last night maybe for her and others an opportunity to reverse a slide and get back into the game. >> eric: in a moment we'll talk to former israeli ambassador daniel gillerman about those comments.
10:03 am
melt downs or brain freezes, last night? there weren't any. >> reporter: no brain frieses, it was a saturday night debate and, we are 52 days from the iowa caucuses and the lay of the land is this: mitt romney got some of the attention a would-be front-runner gets but there were no direct attacks at him and no one criticized him specifically and for the most part it was a smooth, typical mitt romney performance, leaving him about where he has been all along and rick perry did not have a brain-freeze and did at one point say china will end up on the ash-heap of history, the way ronald reagan predicted the ussr would and china is growing rapidly on the international economic front and, newt gingrich who has a strong command of international affairs, rose last night and he was involved in virtually every conversation and as he has in the past, didn't criticize other republicans, tried to focus the attention, again, on barack obama. ron paul, got sort of left out of the mix and complained about
10:04 am
that last night and so you have a scenario where, for the most part, the race stays pretty much where it is, and herman cain did not have a standout night, and his success in the polls, largely has been credited to his debate performances, and, his 9-9-9 plan and on international and foreign policy, a 9-9-9 domestic tax policy is not likely to get into the debate, and frankly, he admitted in the past and did last night that there are a number of international issues on which he is not particularly expert, and would have to surround himself with experts who could help him make decisions and when you are running for president, there is now an expectation that people have policies, and, he sort of pushed that off and said i'll figure it out later on a couple of occasions and so it was not one of his best performances, but, again, his record and debate performances in the past have been quite strong. >> eric: thanks for filling us in and we'll keep watching, good to see you as always. >> jamie: as carl explained, newt gingrich enjoying a recent bump in the polls and combining
10:05 am
that with a strong debate last night, some wonder if mitt romney's camp should be worried. >> you give foreign aid $7 billion, egypt 3:billion, and you start off every year and say, here's your $3 billion, now i'll start thinking. you ought to start off with zero and say, explain why i should give you a penny, and, the fact that the pakistanis -- think about this, the pakistanis hid bin laden at least six years in a military city. within a mile of their national defense university and got mad at the people who turned him over to us? and we think those are the allies? i think that is a way to start at zero and sometimes stay there. >> jamie: can the former speaker keep up this middle east surge? let's bring in editor of campaign and election magazine, and, shane, good to see you again. >> thanks for having me. >> jamie: thanks for being with us. that was some debate. was it the topic of foreign
10:06 am
policy and homeland security, national security, that really gave newt gingrich the bump everyone is talking about today? >> i think it certainly helped last night and i think there is no doubt that newt gingrich turned in a really solid debate performance. last night he was able to show case really two of his greatest strengths, one is a a tremendous command on the issues and newt gingrich more than anybody else loves and relishes a substantive debate and i think he excelled in that light and the question is now, does he emerge as the next anti-romney in the eyes of the republican base, and is he able to compete with mitt romney and the rest of the top tier, when you look at the polls in terms of organization and strengths on the ground in iowa and new hampshire and that i'm not convinced of, just yet. >> jamie: speaker gingrich took the high road where mitt romney is concerned, deciding before and during the debate not to go on the attack and back to mitt romney in a second.
10:07 am
first, governor perry. the last debate didn't go very well for him and, there was actually a light moment last night and let's play that and i want to ask you a question about that. >> governor perry you advocate the elimination of the department of energy, if you eliminate the department of energy... >> glad you remembered it. [laughter]. >> i've had time to think about it, sir. [laughter]. >> me, too. >> jamie: how about the way that haves handled by governor perry? did it help him? has he regained the momentum lost from the last debate? >> i think that was a good response and i thought he handled it well and came across as funny and human as the campaign talked about in the wake of that gaffe. from the lasting debate. that being said, it is still -- it was a devastating gaffe and the 53 seconds of not being able to come up with that third government agency, is going to continue to haunt the campaign.
10:08 am
so, i think it will be a longer road to recovery than just last night but i thought he handled it well last night. >> jamie: michelle bachmann, rick and stosantorum and the ot candidates and herman cain, who is still raising impressive amounts of money even with the scandal last week. where are they after the debate. here's the poll before the debate and you had a three-way match-up. between herman cain, still on top, mitt romney and gingrich doing better and better in the polls. what happens after last night? >> i think the important thing for herman cain is he survived last night's debate and it was entirely focused on a subject area he and his campaign have admitted is not necessarily his strength. i think when you look at some of his answers, last night, they were broad. they were not nearly as specific as the other candidates i don't think he allreally answered the question on his foreign policy questions, the concern some
10:09 am
folks have and that said, given the terrible couple of weeks that he has had, he survived last night and i think that is the most important thing for his campaign, right now and we'll see where the polls go the next couple of weeks, if he is able to maintain the level he has throughout the scandal which is really -- has really been an impressive feat. >> jamie: he's in it, whether he wins the nomination or not. mitt romney? >> yes. mitt romney, again, i mean, nobody laid a hand on him last night and that has been the pattern and the trend in all of these debates, and, i thought it was interesting, that as you said earlier, newt gingrich didn't go after mitt romney directly when given the opportunity. so, you know, i think that if mitt romney can continue unscathed throughout these debates, he remains this sort of de facto front-runner, you know, tops the polls in new hampshire, we'll see where that goes, but, i think another clean debate for mitt romney and solid performance. >> jamie: so fascinating to watch, each debate has its own personality and results, thanks so much, shane, always good to
10:10 am
have you on, on sunday mornings. eric? >> eric: the u.s. is pressing china and russia to try and join the international effort to prevent iran from getting nukes clear bombs. president obama in hawaii meeting with though country's leaders, the u.n. report says there is evidence that iran is pursuing the development of nuclear weapons. can they be stopped with more sanctions, even if russia and china don't sign on again? and, will israel continue to stand by? joining us now, is -- the former israeli ambassador to the united nations, daniel gillerman, in tel aviv, a fox news contributor. there are reports the israeli government will not give washington the heads up if it launches strikes against iran's nuclear facilities. what do you think the chances are of an israeli attack and what will israel do? sn>> well, eric, israel is certainly capable of handling things, has the technology and
10:11 am
the range to take care of iran and make sure that this rogue regime with its lunatic president, who denies the holocaust, while preparing the next one, will not get a nuclear weapon, but, it is very important to understand that this is not and should not become an iranian-israeli issue. iran is a threat to the world. to civilization as we know it. the regime is intent on terrorizing the world and a world which iran will possess nuclear weapons will be a horribly ugly and brutal and dangerous world. we have just seen the attempt the iranians had in washington, d.c., to assassinate the saudi ambassador and their eyes are not just on israel. they are on the whole world and, therefore, the world, the international community, hopefully, led by the united states, should make sure that iran does not get these weapons and i'm not sure we have enough time. >> eric: last night, you mentioned the world -- michelle
10:12 am
bachmann had a stunning and shocking claim, she said, quoted, the table is being set for a worldwide nuclear war, against israel. that is her view. a shocking assessment. do you agree? sn>> well, i don't agree the worldwide nuclear war being planned against israel but, a moment that seems to be a worldwide indifference about the nuclear iran, which could indeed make israel one of the victims, and, i think the fact of the debate last night was indeed on foreign policy and it is very significant, because, i think as you said, this is going to be, everybody thinks it will be a jobs and economy election. but, i think that with the clock ticking and the way the international atomic agency, energy agency has said, we may see, by next november, a world
10:13 am
with a nuclear iran and then, the whole thing including elections will not be about jobs and about the economy, it will be about terror and about nuclear weapons, held by rogue regimes. the world has slept and let pakistan get away with it and slept again and let north korea get away with it. and, if we add iran to the list, we'll be living in a world where there will be no jobs, there will be no economy, there will be ruin, because, this country means evil for the rest of the world, and israel has been the canary in the coal mine. we have been saying this all along. now our claims have been verified again. by this international agency. just proves that when mohammed el-baradei, who wants to be the president of egypt, was at the head of that agency, he pandered to the iranians and provided false information.
10:14 am
the real forecasts eal informat and, i'm not sure this time, sanctions will work and, if they don't, the world, led by the united states, so concerned about egypt and libya, and is small change compared to the danger imposed by the nuclear iran. >> eric: and, russia and china said there are no new sanctions needed and the diplomatic track will continue, but sobering words from former ambassador, daniel gillerman, ambassador, thank you so much as always. >> jamie: there is a little boy missing, missing for a week and his mother refuses to talk to police. now, we're learning the search is expanding, for the child. where investigators are looking, next. >> eric: and are pediatricians reaching for the prescription pad too often? there is a study, if you have kids you will want to find out more, details, coming up, in "sunday house call." americans are always ready to work hard for a better future.

for u.s. business travellers to better actions what the president calls fast growing asia-pacific region and an act of defiance, by occupy wall street protesters in portland, oregon, demonstrators converging on the downtown park where police earlier ordered them to evacuate. as of the past few hours, dozens of tents, still remain in that area. turkey state run news agency says search crews ended efforts to find anyone else alive in the rubble of a hotel, shattered by a earthquake wednesday. the building, one of two hotels that collapsed, at least 39 people, were killed. >> jamie: could be one of the most interesting fox news sunday's ever, pennsylvania's governor weighing in on the sex abuse scandal. he was part of the board of trustees that voted to fire legendary coach joe paterno and shared his reasoning for that, this morning. on fox news sunday. listen: >> as to the actions of mr. paterno, the attorney
10:20 am
general made a determination that he had not at this point in time done anything that would be of a criminal nature, but, in my opinion, when you don't follow through, when you don't continue onto make sure actions are taken. i lose confidence in your ability to lead. >> jamie: wow. joining me now, the anchor of fox news sunday, chris wallace. no one illicits, answers like you, and, he's agreeing wither than perhaps at this point in time and leaving the question open of whether or not joe paterno will be charged. will the governor get involved in the process. >> no, he was the attorney general, interesting enough, tom corbet corbett, the attorney general a couple of years ago and led the initial vicious and began the investigation an con venaled the grand jury and he's been very involved and now as governor steps out of the role and he was
10:21 am
directly involved this week because as governor is a member of the board of trustees and i gather was one of the people pushing the board for the unanimous vote they ended up making to fire paterno, not to let him -- as paterno wanted -- to stay on through the end of the year and retire after coaching a few more games. walking a delicate line, illegally, he is, because there are things he can and cannot say and probably politically as well, joe paterno is still a very popular person in the state of persnnsylvania and i'm not se even if you are the governor you want to get too far out there, criticizing his actions or lack of action in this case. >> jamie: i've looked at the laws under this, in terms of child protection and even president obama weighed in saying that is the main responsibility, to protect children in situations like this. but, it is said joe paterno did the legal minimum of what they are obligated to do, if they learn information about an act like this, alleged act. should the law be changed and
10:22 am
will the governor see to it, no matter what happens with joe paterno? >> i don't know. we didn't discuss that. but you are right, and, you know, the -- after the long, two, three year grand jury proceeding, they brought indictments against, obviously, jerry sandusky. the a-- former assistant coach involved in abusing the boys, but, also two administrators including one who was at least in a bureaucratic sense, joe paterno's superior, though some would say there is nobody who is his superior on the campus at penn state. and, the entire state of pennsylvania and he was the one who is charged with perjury for lying about what he learned and what he did. the other interesting thing that comes out in the the interview, is, i asked him, you think we know the four corners of the scandal, at this point, or not? because there has been talk about other children. there has been talk about possibly other people being involved in the abuse.
10:23 am
and, just talk, at this point. in the abuse of these kids. and, the governor said he would not be at all surprised if more victims come forward. so, i think this scandal is going to continue to grow. >> jamie: and be in the news for a long time, the crown jewel, penn state is, in the football program of the state, as you said, chris, we will not miss this one, thanks so much for bringing it to us and a preview, this morning, good to see you. >> thank you. >> jamie: and in addition to the scandal, fox news sunday talks about the looming deadline for the congressional super committee and the deadline is around the corner and, chris spoke with senator pat toomey and james clyburn and how close are they to reaching the deficit deal, you know what happens if they don't, 2:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. on fox. >> eric: and we'll talk about that in the next hour or so, see if they can get anything done.

>> jamie: grab your coffee, time for "sunday house call" and joining us this morning, dr. marc siegel, the associate professor of medicine and author to have "unlocking the secret code of sickness and health". >> eric: and the vice chairman of the chief -- at mt. sinai medical center. >> jamie: doctors give a lot of antibiotics to kids and are prescribed maybe too often and doctor, is that true and when would be wrong with that? >> there is a shocking new study
10:29 am
out of "pediatrics" 10 million unnecessary prescriptions for antibiotics every year and one out of five children are getting them unnecessarily, every time they go to the doctor. why is it happening? studies show, 80% of the time it is parents, pushing for them. and i have to tell you, dr. rosenfeld, has told me many times, that he actually gets pushed to give these antibiotics but resists and that is what i tr try to do in my practice, as well, people and parents are afraid. is it a virus, a bacteria? most of the time it is a virus, and we think, it could be worse than we think and better cover ourselves with antibiotics and that is bad medicine. >> jamie: when is it appropriate to give antibiotics, doc. >> as marc mentioned it is bacterial and antibiotics is the best thing that has happened to us but most of these are just-in-case prescriptions and they are worried, to be on the safe side the doctors write this but what is interesting, when parents actually, just ask the question, doctor, is it
10:30 am
necessary a lot of pediatricians back off and will not write it and that is something to come up with and my concern with the prescriptions, when you overdo it you actually wipe out good bacterias and you can do more harm, not only the side effects of antibiotics, but, also, you make them susceptible to asthma and other -- >> asthma, obesity, diabetes and resistant strains of bacteria. bad idea. >> eric: what should parents do? you worry about your child and go and say, doc, you know, blast them with what your need. >> it is important to go with the watchful waiting, let them sit a couple of days and see how they do and if they improve, leave them alone and if not, sarte the antibiotics. >> it sounds funny but you need a doctor like david or i who will resist the temptation. >> jamie: i like the fact you gave the question to parents, to ask, now, is it really necessary? that is great advice. >> eric: exactly. another topic now, a study suggests dads who suffer from depression could have an impact on their children's behavior. doctor, tell us more about this,
10:31 am
you don't really hear about fathers and depression. as much as maybe mothers? >> we have talked about this in the past, during the men's health segment and i'm glad the author of the study brought it to the surface, because, we always talk about moms, they spend a lot -- depression plays a big role and for the first time we are looking at the fathers and they found that when the father is depressed, there are 11% of chances, the kids are going to have problems. and, the study is not a cause and effect, not every depressed father will have a problem with the kids, but i think the message that i take from this, when i read this, is, really, at the time of hardship in america, with the economic crisis, are soldiers coming back, we are going through a tough time and need to spend more time with our children and this is what i told my children, we are going to spend one hour together, this is a private time, we are not going to have any disruption and, spend quality time with them and that is extremely important because it is a great investment in our kids. >> eric: and what is so important, dinner, have dinner
10:32 am
together. >> we both have young children and are both hands on fathers and, that could be good or bad and he's cool as a cucumber and i pass on my emotions to the kids and the study worries me and, what do my kids get when i get upset and the doctor contacted us about the study and can't believe it took him until now before it has been looked at, fathers, were looked at and he thinks it is nature and nurture, and there is a genetic pre-disposition, if a father is depressed, the kid may be depressed and is also the environment about being around a father, that detaches themselves, and we're not those fathers. >> jamie: and you know what makes mom less depressive if dad cooks the meal eric is talking about. meanwhile, if you are a parenty paw attention to your baby's weight. there is a new study that suggests you really should and i'll tell you why. a baby's weight as early as 6 months, could be according to the study, a sign of obesity. later down the road. that early, doctor? >> that is exactly what we need to know. this is a big headline for
10:33 am
everybody out here, because we always say, orientation first six months, so cute, a cute baby and reality is, what are we doing wrong the first six months and why is the baby gaining so much weight? it turns to the when they get to be five or ten, if you gave them too much weight the first six months they have a problem later on and there is an obesity epidemic in the u.s. and one out of three kids are overweight and leads to high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and leads to diabetes, and, we need to nip it in the bud, and need to get it in the first six months. >> i go back to the way we were discipline and didn't have expose toure to fast foods and foods the come to us and the numbers are staggering, you look at, between 1980 to 2000, you see over 60% increase in obesity among kids. it is just unacceptable, because, that is how they grow to be more obese, your heart disease and cholesterol and we
10:34 am
need to break the cycle and it starts exactly on that dinner table. by educating our kids and making sure you don't have to finish your food, replace it with good vegetables and exercise and it is the message. >> eric: easy to grab the doughnut and the candy. >> addicting, start them on vegetables, like the doctor said. >> jamie: get involved in school and bring your lunches. >> eric: and teachers give candy as rewards for doing well in school, i don't understand why... >> your point is well taken. >> eric: that can be allowed, and i love cup cakes, but, as a reward for doing well? rewards the behavior. >> it is what you get used to. replace your french fries with sweet potato fries. >> i like that. all right. meanwhile, eric, how about this, we have talked about this before... serving indoor tanning. >> and skin cancer, a lot of warnings about that. but there are new warnings about

10:40 am
and, doesn't happen overnight and it happens early on and, progresses as we get older and i'd rather have the information, not have my head in the sand and say, you know, i don't -- we don't need to know. the argument against it is that, with screening you will have overdiagnosis, and, overdiagnosis doesn't have to be overtreatment. we can have the information, and, instead of giving them these standings, we can change their lifestyle, like i said, put exercise regimens and change the diet and i'm all about knowing the information early on and as u, the american heart association is putting guidelines about this particular thing and is a grate thing for us. >> jamie: should they be put on statins? >> that is a jump but we need know before puberty who has the high cholesterol, because, james. >> clayton: 1-- >> because, 1/2 of the people who have it as kids, go on to
10:41 am
have it as and result, and, they have a higher risk of heart attacks and strokes and i'm not saying give it to everyone, but let's know, we want to know in advance of a problem. >> eric: your advice is to parents, like six years old, ask your doctor, pediatrician, to... >> we have to fine-tune that, i don't know, 6 years old but we have to do it when they are kids. >> eric: put it on the radar. important. >> jamie: interesting. each year more than 2 million people are diagnosed with certain types of skin cancer and just this week the federal government stepped in, to make sure teens are getting the information about dangers of the sun, i guess, dr. siegel, you can tell them to stay out of the sun, will they listen? >> u.s. preventive service task force is claiming from 10 to 24 is a group that is going to listen. i talked to my 14-year-old about it this morning and he says he will not listen and i think the real issue here, and i disagree with the guideline, everybody should be told this, the american academy of dermatology says everybody should avoid sun exposure, not just specific groups but it is good we are
10:42 am
turning to our teens and saying, don't go to tanning salons, don't go in the sun so easily and cover with sunscreen and getter vitamin d in other ways, if you need to, get out of the sun. >> jamie: the thing is with vitamin d you need sun exposure and you could explain it to your teenagers as well, doctor? do it properly. >> absolutely, but, the sun exposure you need to get enough vitamin d would be five minute walk from your car to the shopping mall, that is enough exposure with the sun, but, you know, we are living in an era where the kids really want to look pretty and girls want to have the tan and guys want their midday sun. that is how it is. and you have to be really careful and what i say is melanoma and skin cancer is the most common skin cancer among kids and that is a deadly disease and what people need know, the pneumonic, the a, b, c, d, asymmetry, look at the borders and the color of the

leagues and the diameter, and, if there are changes, go to your doctor and it can save lives. >> you are so right. >> jamie: will pediatricians check kids for moles. >> they better. there are 2 million kids with skin cancer every year and david is right to point out melanoma, the most deadly, 2 out of 3 deaths are from melanoma and you look for exactly what he said, a, b, c, d, e, to see if a mole is out of line and a pediatrician -- >> jamie: repeat what you should look for, especially dealing with kids an oftentimes, you go to the beach and put on sunscreen and you don't think when johnnie goes into the yard he'll put it on all day, going to school, i don't know any parent who puts sunscreen on in the morning when kids go to school yet they are in recess, all day. >> when i saw it, it is november time in new york and we don't have a lot of sun and i questioned why we are doing it and it's not just the summer you need cover yourself, cover yourself during the wintertime also and that is important, use
10:44 am

and with pradaxa, there's no need for those regular blood tests. pradaxa is progress. pradaxa can cause serious, sometimes fatal, bleeding. don't take pradaxa if you have abnormal bleeding, and seek immediate medical care for unexpected signs of bleeding like unusual bruising. pradaxa may increase your bleeding risk if you're 75 or older, have kidney problems or a bleeding condition, like stomach ulcers. or if you take aspirin products, nsaids, or blood thinners. tell your doctor about l medicines you take, any planned medical or dental procedures, and don't stop taking pradaxa without your doctors approval, as stopping may increase your stroke risk. other side effects include indigestion,stomach pain, upset, or burning. if you have afib not caused by a heart valve problem, ask your doctor if pradaxa can reduce your risk of a stroke. for more information or help paying for pradaxa, visit pradaxa.com.

>> eric: back with "sunday house call," the demand for erectile dysfunction drugs soared recently and with that so have the number of fakes and what should men be aware of? you go on the internet and how do you know what you are getting is what you are getting. >> as a urologist i deal with it all the time, a lot of my patients have difficulty getting most of these medication, viagra, and cialis and levitra and is cheaper when they get it from other countries and we are finding almost 80% of these
10:49 am
medications are counterfeit and have sheet rock covered with wallpaper blue and you cannot distinguish between the real and the fake pills and they have some boric acid an rat poison, unbelievable, and the word of caution is really, if you are going to get any of these pills, the best thing is to get them here, but if you have to go on-line, you want to look for signs of vipps, the internet pharmacy, a verified internet pharmacy system where they really have certified pills and that is what you want to get. you don't want randomly to go and get the pills from internet pharmacies. >> eric: vipps, is that a web site. >> no, it is a sign, the seal on the side to make sure it is a certified pharmacy on-line. >> i want to make a couple of points. >> jamie: i want to ask about rat poison, it can make you sick. >> yes. and people can die and the other point, the doctor is an expert at this, go to a doctor like him
10:50 am
to figure out if you even need the pill. if you go on-line, with some doctor you have never seen, prescribing it, okay you can find out if it is a certified pharmacy and you can quickly get in trouble. and that is not just for these type of drugs, it is for all drugs. i'm against in general getting your medications via the internet, you need experts like this doctor to be prescribing for you. >> jamie: can you explain, as an alternative to the medication, some men night not need erectile dysfunction drugs because the e.d. may be caused by something else. >> diabetes plays a big role, hypertension and what we are finding now is that e.d. in young men is a first sign of heart disease, that is a very important point and, that is important, because the arteries clog up and when you see someone in their early 40s and 50s with the issue, you want to go straight to the heart and find it and you want to look into the family history and look at the blood pressure, and, by just fixing that, putting them on a very aggressive diet and
10:51 am
exercise regimen you can fix that and next thing you know they are doing better and your point is well taken and you want to be sure, interaction with these medication, with other medications, you know, so there is a communication between the experts, specialists and the medical doctors, to make sure the patients do well. >> come to me for your blood pressure and the doctor for your erectile dysfunction, stay away from the internet. >> jamie: all right. you are here and people have to tune into the show, all right? a woman's weight, when she becomes pregnant, a new study that reveals if you get a big belly, it could mean a bigger than normal newborn. oh, doc, that sounds painful. >> you know, we were talking about this before we came on and we were discussing the issue of inflammation, in other words, when you have the belly fat and he talked about it on the air before, you have that kind of belly fat you have the inflammation that is bad for you and a come getting that way is not good for you when she's pregnant and it correlates with oversized infants and oversized
10:52 am
fetuses that cannot get out of the birth canal and have problems with shoulders getting stuck and after they are born, have more side effects, don't do as well. >> jamie: potentially, obesity, can a mother cause her baby to have those issues, having too big a belly 1234 lly. >> you are exactly right, they can gain too much weight during pregnancy. >> jamie: i'm apologize to my son, right now. >> imagine apple-shaped body versus the pear-shaped, and you want pear-shaped is protective and apple-shaped, the fat around the belly causes all the risks and issues with heart disease. we talked about the belly fat, and a thing of the past and the deep fat in the body surrounds our heart and the liver and you want to be careful with that, especially men and that is really -- and pregnant women. >> we, by the way, we talked about this, too, we are not telling women to diet when they are pregnant and not telling
10:53 am
them not to gain weight. we are telling them to be careful and go under their doctor's supervision. >> waist-to-hip ratio is normally .8, measure around the waist and hip and the ratio should be .8 and men, should be around 1 and if you are more you want to see the doctor or make sure you lose the weight. >> jamie: even now? >> you are perfect. >> eric: bike, the gym, don't eat the sweets, what is the best advice to deal with that. >> you said it, you have to eat healthy and a broad diet when you are pregnant and you have to continue to exercise, as long as you check with your doctor and you want to stay away from sweets, and want to stay away from too much carbohydrates and it is interesting, a lot of obstetricians will say have a steak every now and then and helps you stay away from amedium yeah. >> a simple half-hour walk sometimes does it. >> walking is great. >> start slow and build it up. >> exactly. >> the discipline part of it is not always easy.

10:59 am
week. >> the doctor is right. by the way, we had just learned that 30 minutes on a treadmill was enough. now we are relearning it is what you do when you are not on the treadmill. you get off, walk where you are going, park far from the supermarket. a study a couple of years ago showed twice as much of a risk of heart disfees you don't do this. the latest study shows -- 40 to 50,000 cases of cancer you might not see if you were sedentary. you can't be a couch potato. even when you are at your desk working get up and walk around the desk. stand when you are talking on phone. don't get out of the habit of that. i'm sure dr. rosenthal would agree not just getting on the treadmill 30 minutes. >> it is a life stifle. >> exactly. >> for our healthy monday tip maybe tomorrow we do things differently, a little more active, we eat better and look at our bellies and see if we

11:01 am
>> reporter: with iran apparently threatening to further defy the world community president obama is in hawaii trying to win the support of the two most stubborn countries when it comes to cracking down on iran, china and rush . after meeting with russian president medvedev, president obama said this >> the president: we discussed iran and reaffirmed our intention to work to shape a common response. so that we can move iran to follow its international obligations when it comes to its nuclear program. >> reporter: the president spoke at the pacific rim economic summit as tehran is threatning, according to reports to review its cooperation with the iaea. this comes after the iaea reported last week that it offered further evidence that iran is seeking a nuclear weapon. the u.s. and west imposed sanctions on the nuclear
11:02 am
program which iran says is for peaceful purposes. now there's a push for stronger sanctions. china and russia are resisting though he tried to ben elbows in honolulu the leaders did not offer further commitment. gop candidates talked iran and politics at a debate last night. >> one thing you can know that is if we reelect barack obama, iran will have a nuclear weapon. if we elect mitt romney they will not. >> reporter: candidate newt gingrich coming up in the polls said the u.s. needs to take more covert action to disrupt the iranian nuclear program with military act as the last resort. >> steve, good to see you. news out of syria, that government calling for an emergency arab summit to discuss the growing unrest in their country of the arab league voted yesterday to suspend syria over its bloody crackdown on demonstrators. the sanctions kick in
11:03 am
beginning wednesday we won't know what kind of impact they will have in trying tone the violence. united nations estimate as many as 3500 citizens have been killed since the uprising began last march. hard to believe here it comes, dead to reach day deficit reduction deal is 10 days away the congressional super committee working hard through the weekend to try to reach that agreement. now president obama is pressing the committee's leaders to strike a balanced deal. peter doocy live in washington with that story. >> reporter: the urgency to make a deal is driven by the fact that if nothing gets done in the next 10 days the same law that created the committee is going to trigger automatic cuts 1.2beyond of automatic cuts to things like defense. -- to make those cuts easier
11:04 am
to flow the committee fails some have started suggesting changing that law. senator pat toomey explained why this morning. >> i'm not giving up on getting something done. i think we can and i'm going to do everything i can to achieve that. in the unfortunate event that we don't, i think it is likely that congress would reconsider the configuration and consider is this best way to do it? that would be a lively debate that would occur and the nature of those cuts which i think the cuts have to occur, they might occur in a different fashion. >> i want to show you -- >> reporter: we heard from on the sunday shows this morning they are hopeful a deal will get done by their deadline. the things they were suggesting indicates there's a big gap between the republicans and democrats exhibit a, right here democratic congressman james clyburn. >> we gotta come up with a plan that cbo will score not
11:05 am
that pat toomey would dream about. it is a dream, i believe if you do this and that it would create all this dynamic growth. that is not the way to do this. let's put down actual numbers, tax cuts, tax increases, entitlement cuts and entitlement increases and find a fair and balance approach. >> reporter: in addition to that fair and balanced approach, congressman clyburn wants a deal large enough to create jobs and do surgical fixes to entitlements. >> peter doocy -- i almost called you your , sorry, take care. so, will the super committee strike a deficit reduction deal in time? what if it doesn't? joining us is gretchen hamill and democratic campaign consultant ryan clayton. welcome gretchen let me start with you what is going to happen?
11:06 am
>> if history tell us anything they will come up with a deal at the very last minute. however, i don't know if i'm too hopeful. there seems to be a big gap that will need a big bridge to get us across. >> they talk about cutting 1.2 trillion, the reports out of the committee they are not even anywhere near that. >> that's right. 1.2 trillion over 10 years. you think they would be able to find a way but they are not. i think it is because they are putting politics in front of economics and the future of this country. >> how do they put politics behind and economics first? that's what americans want. >> all americans want democrats and republicans to put an sigh their differences and figure out their problems -- put aside their differences and figure out their problems. this super committee is a soviet-style -- if you that i is a representative democracy, you are doing it wrong. right now, we could take and
11:07 am
tax millionaires a penny on the dollar and put millions of americans back to work. make corporate tax dodgers pay their fair share that would be over 100 billion dollars every year a trillion over the decade. that means you've got the budget crisis solved. unemployment crisis fixed. >> republicans say if you increase taxes there goes the economy. >> not only do republicans say that but bill clinton wales. you can't tax your way to a better economy. and you can't tax your way to jobs. spending got us into this trouble. we have been in the red for 37 straight months. we have increased spending over 60% under the bush administration. spend something the problem. spending needs to be cut, not taxes this is not the time or place to raise taxes. >> ryan mentioned the soviet-style poe lit bureau secret committee. wind that the point? -- politicians failed the
11:08 am
country to have some type of magic committee to come out with some kind of package everyone is going to listen to. ryan you that i is going to happen? >> problem is the super committee and congress put themselves in between a rock and hard place. now it is cuts if you do and don't. if they keep cutting they going to cut into the second great depression that mean the ref of america suffers. real people living every -- day lives suffering through an unemployment crisis suffered the budget crisis in a foreclosure crisis it only questions worse for them. congress can't figure out a way to find solutions. that's their job. they are not doing it right now under the leadership of speaker john boehner. >> isn't that a sad commentary? you have democrats in the senate too. >> that's true. and president obama who needs to stand up and say now is the time to act. when he put forward the american jobs act the republicans and politicians in washington stopped it. when he put forth the rebuild america jobs act the
11:09 am
republican politicians in washington stopped it. finally, when he put forward the vow to rehire american heroes to put vets back to work, finally the republicans started working with him. if they could work with him on the rest of the issues our country is facing then we could get our country back on right track and start solving the problems. >> what do you think the chances of this happening from the super committee actually reaching an agreement in time ryan? >> i think the clock is ticking. i think the super committee should be rejected as undemocratic this is not the way we do thins in america. if you think this is -- this is a representative democracy you are wrong. we need two get all of the people we elected and have them sit down in congress and talk and debate it out and say what they believe and figure out solutions together that's what the congress is intended for. i see one person talking and a bunch of empty seats that is not the way congress is supposed to work. >> gretchen last word i hear
11:10 am
you laughing. >> i'm just laughing, because he uses democracy when it is beneficial to his talking points. when it comes to the president pass what he tells us to pass and there should be no democracy. democracy is about arriving ago the best option for this nation i think congress should do that. i agree they should put as side and economics and the future of this country ahead of all else. >> i think most americans agree. we have 10 days before the super committee issues whatever they are going to issue. if they don't, stuff is getting cut any way. thanks for joining us. >> thank you. at this hour police in washington are looking for a man in connection with a shooting that happened near the white house. they want to speak to 21-year-old oscar romero or day get. they were lead to him after -- recovering an abandoned car a few blocks from that reported shooting they also recovered an ak-47 friday.

11:12 am
italy's debt under control. it has to happen before it threatens to tear europe's economy apart with europe still teetering on the brink of recession, what does that mean for the u.s. and markets when they open tomorrow? brenda buttner joins us. friday it looked pretty good. >> the markets ended up. it was much, much better than wednesday when we saw a huge, huge market sell-off. that was mainly because there was talk that berlusconi might be out. and the italian bond went below 7%. 7% seems to be this magic ceiling basically, where we saw greece, ireland, portugal, at that level all needing to be bailed out. but, italy is an entirely
11:13 am
different animal. it is the third largest economy, after france and germany. and basically, many people think it is too big to bail. there are lots of people who say, this is just, you know the markets will be watching it so carefully. because it is not enough that berlusconi is out. italy is in much bigger trouble than greece, if it defaults. it is in much worse -- it has six times the debt, basically. their problems are far, far greater. there's a lot more that needs to be done. it could have a far greater impact on us, in america. >> what can we do on our end where italy is concerned to bolster them and protect ourselves? >> well, the issue here is that we have -- u.s. banks
11:14 am
have 651 billion dollars in euro debt. also, in terms of exports, the dollar has been getting stronger as the euro has been weakening. so we've been getting less competitive. this has been having a great impact on companies like mcdonald's, ge, who rely upon this -- on the eurozone to sell a lot of their products. so, we are going to of to be looking for other places to to sell. in terms of bailing out those countries, that's a very, very dangerous thing. we have to be looking at home, at bailing ourselves out basically. that's why the super committee is very important. and ourselves not going into default i think is very important. i think we have to look at home first before we look overseas. >> brenda buttner, thank you, have a great day. at the cost of heating our

11:29 am
promises as president of the united states. one is to submit a balanced budget to congress in the year 2013 that's a 43% reduction in government spending i'm going to document that and how that takes place going to encompass medicaid and medicare. >> you are cutting almost half, the super committee can't agree on anything yet. >> you don't have a super committee here you have the president of the united states that going to submit that document. what is america shouting if they elect a president who says please going to submit a balanced budget in 2013? that's america shouting they want a balanced budget. veto bills where expense exceeds revenue. override that veto? i suggest to you eric that in that scenario spending will be lower than any other scenario that you can come up with. lastly, i promise to advocate throwing out the entire
11:30 am
federal tax system and replacing it with the fair tax. which is a consumption tax. which by all free market economists reckoning is as the name implies, fair. the more money you make the more fair tax you a, revenue neutral, we need to cut, no more income tax, no more corporate tax in a business environment with zero corporate tax if the private sector does not create tens of millions of jobs, i don't think there is any other -- anything else that we could do to do that. also, make american goods and services much more competitive overseas. it takes care of the china issue. and i'm back to fair. no more withholding from your payroll check. social security, medicare, unemployment, will come out of the fair tax no more employer match. >> what are the chances of this happening? they've been floating some of
11:31 am
these ideas now. you know what happens when you run into the lobbyists? >> in this case, i share with the sentiment on occupy wall street. i'll tell you what i think that sentiment is. it is saying this country is not fair. it doesn't dole it out fair. and it doesn't. money buys favors. and it buys favors paying off politicians to unfairly advantage individuals, groups, corporations. look fair tax does away with all that. >> if it is so fair why hasn't it gained more traction? >> it has a huge following. i want to say a million followers nationwide. >> that doesn't translate into action on capitol hill or in the white house. >> so what the president of the=fó united states and i'm bk to my being governor of new mexico. you want leadership, somebody that is going to talk about what needs to take place. eric, i would espouse a better
11:32 am

11:42 am
hi mark. you have been followinging this case from the beginning. where are police on this? >> well, i think jamie, they are hoping that they find a body. i don't think that they are looking for a live child any more. nor have they been for a couple weeks, maybe several weeks. they would like to find a body. they would like to fill in some gaps as far as location of the body, cause of death. if they cannot do that, they need to clear up some discrepancies, lies, omissions, by deborah bradley in the initial interviews not only early that morning, but the subsequent interview that she had with the police before october 8th. >> deborah bradley is the mother of baby see . is she or isn't she mark, a suspect? >> it is easy for us to say she is a suspect. >> her attorney says she is.
11:43 am
police say she , which is it? >> well, the police would like to interview deborah bradley and clear up what makes her a suspect in our eyes and possibly her attorney's eyes. let's put the blame on the suspect jacket where it belongs. that's on deborah bradley. she changed the timeline, failed a polygraph, so mitted certain facts, added facts that weren't true, claims a black-out she has discrepancies from the time she started drinking until the time she recorded the baby missing. there are quite a few things she needs to clear up that she has created. >> i don't understand why they can interview her separately. she has only agreed to be interviewed with the baby's father. why do they not have the ability to require she sit down with them? they did get the two children, the other children in the house, 5-years-old and eight-years-old to be able to sit down with them, even
11:44 am
though the parents objected. >> those two children were no doubt interviewed by a defense expert prior to the fbi getting the children to actually know what they are going to say. the surprising thing, or the thing that really stands out for me is, deborah bradley is worried what they would say. why would you be worried what they would say? anything would help if they saw or heard anything would it help. >> she can't remember because she admits now she was drunk. i'm curious, a 5-year-old and 8-year-old what sort of information could they have been looking for, illicited and how credible would it be down the road if there were a trial that they would say the same thing? >> well, the information is incredibly credible. if they hear or see or remember anything, they have no baggage to make it different than what they experienced. so, it is very good. we must look at deborah
11:45 am
bradley's supposed black-out. in her interview with megan kelly she supposedly has a black-out and can't remember anything after she was done drinking at 10:third yet she remembers bringing both boys to her bedroom and having them sleep with her. we can eliminate the black-out that was a lie. at least a lie up to that point. these are things that the police need to clear up with bradley. jamie, is it not ironic the only person in this entire scenario of all the tips the peep, the guy with the t-shirt and the baby, -- jersey handyman, wright that got the phone call they can clear everybody and move on except for the mother who was the laugh person to see the child that night. >> mark -- was the last person to see the child that night. >> mark fuhrman, thank you. if anyone knows anything now is the time provide that information to the police anonymously.

>> eric: the killing of bin laden. we know about the navy seal operation. is it what the white house told us? a new book called "seal target geronimo" disputes that. how has the media handled this controversy or has it bought the original story? liz trotta joins us every sunday with a commentary at this time. good morning liz. >> good morning eric. >> what does the new book say? >> it is a good read but controversial because of the sores. let's look at the author who by the way was a member of seal team 6. let's take a look at what he has to say about who his sources were.
11:57 am
the first thing he says was the primary sources for this history were the men of seal team 6 who told me what they saw, thought and felt that as a claim that no other book on this tile secret mission supposedly -- highly secret mission to kill bin laden makes. but, he says further tkoeurpb, in his narrative, there were a -- a small number of persons who worked behind the scenes to derail this history and substitute one of their own making. those efforts continue to this day. well, very mysterious, so in keeping with the mood of the seals. what have we here? we have a book that claims to have actually spoken to the seals on the mission. a claim nobody else makes. which gives it a very good chance in the race going on in hollywood, to get a movie made about the seals. some movies are already in
11:58 am
production. one of which we spoke about before which is going to come out at election time. we can only assume that will help president obama. again, reinforcing that he's the commander in chief of the armed forces. now, as to what else this book offers and which has within talked -- which has been talked about are the inconsistencies. he says this is not a hit wasth was a military operation. we didn't go there to kill bin laden. we went there, seals go to these places to interdict these people. if they resist, then we kill 'em. it is a fine line, but i take his point. then he goes on a lot about how the chopper that crashed on the mission, crashed at the end of the mission not in the beginning. he goes on about that. then, he also certifies that mr. bin laden had been
11:59 am
reaching for a weapon when the seals nailed him. all of this is to show, according to the author, that his account is the real account and the white house version which by the way changed as you remember from day-to-day, was just one of many official versions. and he says he wrote in book to set the record straight. >> eric: some of the report says the pentagon officials say the seals did not talk to him. he says the seals did. then we had that new yorker article where it appeared that the author talked to them, but never did. >> that was fudged this is not. he says he actually talked to these guys. frankly eric, i cannot imagine the seals wanting any publicity, also i'm thinking of the days, not so long ago, when no one would even acknowledge that seals existed. now that is all
