made in america. please remember, the spin stops out because we are looking out -- for you! >>alisyn: good morning, en, on saturday, february 4th, and it is caucus day in nevada and g.o.p. frontrunner mom is taking fire from all sides, even compared to president obama. >> is it good enough for the republican party to nominate obama-lite? >>alisyn: will mitt romney cruise to victory? >>dave: the unemployment rate dropped to 8.3 percent, the lowest in three years but could that number will all smoke and mirrors? we will look at the spend. >>clayton: and i love this,

have you seen the ads telling you to stop eating junk food and they are paid for with taxpayer dollars but if a lawmakers gets his way it could be a thing of the past. cut the fat and soda. "fox & friends" starts right now. >>alisyn: is there a big football game this weekend? >>clayton: a kids' game. >>dave: patriots and giants look small on tv. >>alisyn: it looks like a video game. >> we have an amazing crop of guests down there. who do you have? >> well, it is who do "we" have.

and, by the way, the children are not real. they are all generated through a computer and i will go over the whole thing. >>alisyn: okay. he did pull the plug. >> let me run through the guest list today. coming up on the nfl experience in end indianapolis, rex ryan, in a movie and coaches the jets. and joe montana is good at football but now he is retired. does he have negative interesting to say with two sons in football? and the owner of the new england patriots, robert kraft, and he will lose and talk about the pain of losing his wife during that lock out this past summer. and howie long has two out standing athletes, one in

college and one with the rams and how he deals with terry bradshaw, who personalities that could not be more different. and, plus, working out at 6:00 a.m., and a feat to get the kids up alone. >>clayton: we will check back in a little with much more on the super bowl. >>clayton: and a lot on politics including governor huckabee likely talking about the nevada caucus starting today. the presidents show mitt romney blowing away the competition at this point and hitting the 50 percent. everyone said he could never hit 50 percent but he could never bust that ceiling. looks like he has. >>clayton: in 2008 he won in a landslide lock. he has the mormon vote.

95 percent of the vote he took in 2008 from all the mormons that live in never but interestingly all of the other candidates are going after the frontrunner in mitt romney. >>alisyn: that is what you do so newt gingrich has come up with what he thinks is the fatal comparison for mitt romney, comparing him to president obama. >> isn't good enough to nominate obama lite? let me tell you if you are a conservative, first of all you don't say you don't care about the poor. a genuine conservative you believe that we are enloud by our creator to certain inalienable rights. (inaudible) my goal is not to ignore or forget the poor but to lump the

safety net interest a trampoline. >>alisyn: mitt romney gave an opening with the "i'm not concerned about the poor," comments saying he misspoke, meaning there was a safety net. but rick santorum, also, zeroed in on the "i'm not concerned about the poor comment." >> mitt romney said today, i don't care about the very poor, and went on to explain his comment and i read it, he said i care about the middle class. i care about the 95 percent, i don't care about the very rich and the very poor. if there is a social safety net and it is broken, i'll fix it, i'll care about them, i care about the people who hurting at this time. out of touch much?

>>dave: rick santorum trailing 4th, and the advantage in november november is no one participates, 1 percent of the electorate so if you can get a few folks out you can have a chance. >>clayton: i am interested in watching and this will not be wrapped up until about 2:00 a.m., but clark county has the caucus at 11 a.m., one county opens late and that area where that will happen is one of newt gingrich's big donors resides. at 2:00 a.m., it will close up and ron paul has an incredible ground game in nevada so a lot of people thing he could pull out a second-level victory. >>alisyn: and at 2:00 a.m., you can wrap up the caucus and go to get marriage and go to a buffett. mitt romney is focused on mitt romney not on the opponents.

listen. >> this has been a tough three years and this president, this is a time we needed a leader. you go back into the history of our country, and it was said, lead, follow, or get out of the way. we elected him to lead and he chose to follow and now it is time for him to get out of the way. >>clayton: good friday for president obama because of the jobs numbers and even newt gingrich said that the president should take a bow because the job numbers, five straight months of solid jobs numbers down to 8.3 percent, but the president cannot get a break for the candidates on the trail, other than newt gingrich who said you need to take a bow. >>dave: it is tough to spin because you need the economy to sputter to get the white house, 8.3 percent is a tremendous number. here is the take of ron paul. >> deception was that unemployment rates are much

lower down to 8.3 percent, that is all fiction because what happened in the last month, over a million people just dropped out of the workforce. the last three or four years five million petroleum dropped out. (inaudible) >>alisyn: if you could not hear that the real number often employment is 11 percent because so many have dropped out so he is saying there is more to the story than 8.3 percent which is a good number with good headlines. there are 12.8 million americans who remain unemployed today. despite the better numbers. and 43 percent have been up employed for more than six months. >>clayton: 1.2 million americans have left the labor force because it was a warmer january, are some of the numbers reflected seasonal jobs in construction, and people were outside and it was not snowing

so is construction happening because of the result of it being warmer. >>clayton: and the dow hits the highest since 2008 and nasdaq hit an 11 year high, so, again, this is very, very early and the numbers have changed before november which the cbs says them, a different game. >>alisyn: and enjoy in washington, dc police are moving in on the washington, dc occupy moment. and peter is in washington with the hatest. >>peter: so far it has been very diplomatic but look at this and you can see there are 50 or so u.s. mark police and they have helmets on and many on horseback and helicopters pauling the area, as well, and they came in and told the occupiers they do not want to kick them out of the park, they, instead, want to remove all of bedding materials they have, from the center area, and, then, sets up police barricades in the center area, there have been complaints from the occupiers

that the police are there to try to step on their first amendment rights and the police assure them in a calm way that they are not trying to impigeon their first fm fm rights but trying to protect them and some are skeptical, and some of the organizers, there, people who appear to be organizers, worker everybody up and said, listen, the police say they don't want to kick us out but just want to move us so they can set up and we are waiting to see exactly what happens but the occupiers are up early and so are 50 park police at this team and so far no violence. >>alisyn: it looks peaceful. thank you for showing us that. and now, to the rest of the headlines this morning, because there is an explosion at a marine corps training base in california. at least five people have been hurt, and the blast took place last night in a housing complex sparking a fire, and officials say it may have been propane-related and a dozen families were displaced.

>> welcome back, president obama has been highlighting the auto bailout as the major accomplishments of his administration even mentioned it during the "state of the union" address. does he deserve all the credit? was the bailout an economic success? and now the president of "less government," nice to see you. >>guest: good to see you. >>clayton: the president spent quite a bit of time talking about the auto bailout in the "state of the union" address and that the auto industry is back and that all of the individuals from the auto industry were there and you don't think it was

a success? >>guest: well, look, if you dutch a million into the grand canyon and 20 drifts to you, and you catch it, i can take the obama approach and say i gay you $20 but what about the other $9 $900,000 dollars. so, what is going on there? and by their own numbers, we will lose $23.6 billion on the auto bailout. lost. only in washington, dc where social security is a success, and medicare is a success, and they are trillions in debt is losing $26.3 billion a success. >> but critics are saying he is not giving enough success or awareness to the fact that president george w. bush put this in place and the $17

billion that came from george w. bush and he added another $85 billion on top of it so there is not enough success to go around to share the credit? >>guest: it is not a success. it is not a success. it is a failure. look, president obama is attacking mitt romney my for wanting the company to go through bankruptcy. president obama walked in the front door, gave g.m. $50 billion, and the first thing he said was file for bankruptcy. they could have filed for bankruptcy for free. and that is what we called for, why did they need $50 billion of our money and then file. >>clayton: you think it was a mistake for george w. bush to pass out the money. >>guest: absolutely. >>clayton: and in 2008 mitt romney said we need to let the market shake it out and let them go on their own? >>guest: that is what i am pointing out. he called for them to go through an ordered bankruptcy. obama walks in gives them $50

billion and says, go through bankruptcy. they went through bankruptcy anyway, so, i don't know what obama is talking about. all obama did, was do what romney suggested and gave them $50 billion to do it and on top of that the reason obama did that was so he could eviscerate 200 years of bankruptcy year and crew the secured bondholders and overreward the auto union who is part of the problem. >>clayton: thank you for breaking down the numbers. coming up, securing the g.o.p. nomination means winning vote. which candidate has the best conservative credentials? and first lady is celebrating two years of "let's move," but guess where she is doing it?

>>alisyn: all the g.o.p. candidates claims he is the only true conservative in the race but which of the guys is actually right? we will ask the chairman of the american conservative union. >>guest: good morning. good to be here but. >>alisyn: gingrich, romney, santorum, paul, which do you think is the most conservative? >>guest: well, use know, acu has been rating members of congress since 1971 and we consider ourselves the gold standard and members of congress do, too. if you score under 8 you are not a true conservative and 40 percent of republicans in congress up until the past year

scored below 80 which is a reason we have had so many problems in our country. >>alisyn: just want to interrupt you because we are showing your scoring right now, and we see on the screen that newt gingrich got a 90 percent, that sounds very high. rick santorum got 88 percent, and ron paul 83 percent, and mitt romney doesn't have a score. why not? >>guest: well, because he is, he has never been a member of congress, and, therefore, he hasn't been rated but to his credit we have gone on the web site and looked at the stand on issues that are important to acu and the movement, and he would have had a passing score if he was voting but he did not vote so he cannot get a score but we feel comfortable and we will forecast and we wish we had a hundred but the back and forth they are not conservatives is just not accurate. >>alisyn: it sounds like with 90 percent, though, that you think that newt gingrich is the highest, is that right?

>>guest: well, it depends how you grade issues. there is not a lot of difference between will 88 or 90 or 83. we look at hundreds of bills and narrow down to 20 key legislative items, and we see how the members vote, and that is how they get their rating. i think from our perspective all three have done well and romney if he voted according to what he says he would do fine and, so, from our perspective we are welcoming our four candidates to the conference next week because we consider them all conservatives. >>alisyn: we will have the conference, i believe on thursday and what is the biggest issue for the fed back audience? >>guest: my gosh, this is going to be a, real humdinger, we have not had a serious contested primary in two decades in seattle, the first time well have the candidates in front of

transition without training catch, patrick, coming out the lsu into the starting lineup and returning in nfl tying record four punt returns? >>guest: at going it was tough especially for a rookie like myself not having the opportunity to train with some of the football player on our team and it was a tough transaction by me being a young professional, i had to get over it and that is what i did and made things happen. >> nobody with more contacts to find out what the players help how talented is this guy? >> well most importantly, he is one of my boys so you know he has talent, right away. i got to give love where love is needed and where it is deserved. he is the man and a lot of guys, he came out the game, obviously he was in hawaii so that says it all. >> where you had the

>>dave: another show of forestry ran, the revolutionary guard starting naval exercises near the strait of hormuz is this another genuine threat? and my guest spied for the c.i.a. as a member of iran's revolutionary board and is the author of "a time to betray," and we are not revealing his location. good morning, to you, reza. the head of intelligence in the united states reveals he thinks it is a real threat after the attempt to assassinate a saudi ambassador in washington, dc. how real is this attack in the united states? a missile? (inaudible). >> i have spoken about this for a long time. the islamic regime has been

landing for this attack for a long time including help with drug cartels and venezuela. they collaborate with many islamic communities. it is a big operation. and they have several options. they could commit a terrorist act using the south or they could send a missile and launch a ballistic missile and, at the same time, they are working on intercontinental ballistic missile because they got the technology from china. we should not be surprised if they come out with a test as they were supposed to do in november and announced they have intercontinental capability. >>dave: if you missed that, reza says they could be

preparing a missile to strike the united states or to strike from in our borders. how real is the threat of iran finishing a nuclear weapon and what does the united states or israel do? sanctions have had little if any effect. >>guest: well, first of all, we have ourselves to blame for where we are, for choosing nexts with radicals failing to understand their ideology and we have sacrificed the eniran -- iranian people who have lost tens of thousands of likes trying to bring about change and we are in a dire situation. since president obama took office they have had progress with uranium enrichment and new they have enough for six nuclear bombs and they just started reaching a high level deep if

the mountain in the revolutionary guard safe and they can assemble the nuclear bomb at any time and do not be viced if they could have it now. the order by the iranian leader is to arm the missiles with nuclear capability and i western you, they are capable of having the missile get to our coast as we said in july, they have armed themselves with ballistic missile, and a commercial vessel could launch a nuclear missile in less than 60 seconds and sending us back to the 18th century. >>dave: clearly this is worse than being reported. read "a time to betrayed."

coming up, atheist allowing them to lead prayer groups and vanderbilt is taking away religious rights and they are not backing down, we hear from a fired up student coming up next. emily's just starting out... and on a budget. like a ramen noodle- every-night budget. she thought allstate car insurance was out of her reach. until she heard about the value plan. dollar for dollar, nobody protects you like allstate.

>> vanderbilt is clamping down on religious freedom and a group is facing off with officials over a new policy that may say infringes on religious rights. >> why is the administration refusing to allow religious groups choose leaders based on faith? >> how can religious objections agree to a policy with the administration not explaining the rules?

>> a student at vanderbilt university and vice president of the school's college republicans, a group that produced the video, nice to see you. why were you compelled to make the video? >> religious life is important to students at vanderbilt and we wanted to let the community know what going on and let them know we are frustrated our questions are not answered and get the news out there that students are concerned. >>alisyn: so backtrack for a moment, for people who do not know the story. the university says this is a nondiscrimination policy, that, basically, leaders of student groups do not need to have any particular belief system in order to be a leader. what is wrong with that? >>guest: well, we believe that religious groups can choose their leaders based on their beliefs, and one of the goals of religious organizations is to

train their leaders, train christian leaders and if we are not allowed to vote on our leaders based on religious beliefs it doesn't make sense. >>clayton: they say the university does not seek to limit freedom to practice religious but we require all registered student organizations to observe our nondiscrimination policy. what do you say to that? >>guest: well, at the meeting they refer to it not as nondiscrimination but as all comers policy a new term to us, and they have not been very clear with the students about this policy, and, we are concerned that, for example, if a leader converts to a different religion over the semi, say a muslim is elected to a leader position of the muslim organization and they converts over the we religion and in the fall they want to evangelize the group and vanderbilt says we are

not allowed to ask them to reline that position so it doesn't make any sense and when the administration tells us to take a leap of faith, that is just not a good enough answer. >>alisyn: you are a vanderbilt student, keep us posted on what happens there. more "fox & friends" ahead. we want to protect the house. right. but... home security systems can be really expensive. to save money, we actually just adopted a rescue panther.

>> on saturday, february 4th, it is caucus day in nevada. and g.o.p. frontrunner mitt romney is taking heat from all sides, and he is being compared to president obama. >> isn't good enough for the republican party to nominate obama lite? >> will mitt romney cruise to victory today? >>dave: several airports shut down in major cities at a standstill this morning as mother nature slams the middle of the country. my hometown, with a massive snowstorm. >>clayton: didn't study?

a school district is for longer giving students a zero or an "f," because they will "feel bad." "fox & friends" hour two starts now. >> 70,000 expected to attend, and 140,000 people descending on the city of indianapolis, absolute gridlock. and we are at the super bowl. >>dave: the kids are out early, working hard and joe montana, and howie long, and rex ryan. >>alisyn: we will check in

shortly in indianapolis. >>dave: will you watch the game? >>alisyn: i will have to because it will be on every tv when i am eating nachos. a delivery system for me to eat nachos. and nevada's caucuses begin in two hours from new. >> and like to las vegas. >> good morning from the largest caucus site in clark county, nevada, at a high school if las vegas, still very early out west, and the doors open in just about four hours and it was a busy day year as throw of the four candidates spent their final hours campaigning around the state with the exception of rick santorum who actually was in missouri yesterday, ahead of the primary there on tuesday,

where he see as golden opportunity, because newt gingrich is not on the ballot. mitt romney, the clear frontrunner here in nevada, was in the northern part of the silver state finishing out near las vegas, and newt gingrich and ron paul, focused their event in and around sin city where three quarters of the state population reside but the former massachusetts governor has a clear advantage. remember, he won this state back in 2008 with 51 percent of the vote thanks largely in part to the large mormon population making up 20 percent or so of the electorate four years ago. officials expect no more than 60,000 people to turn out and caucus today when mitt romney won in 2008, more than 44,000 showed up so a larger town out is expected this year. we will be here and keep you updated through the day, guys.

>>clayton: thank you, casey, this is the second time they have gone through the caucus process because in 2008 this was new. not like iowa, old hat they know to get the people out, and you stand up and talk for two minutes about your candidate so it is not like you can wonder in, you have to sit and listen to speeches. >>dave: for romney it is not just the mormon population but about infrastructure and people say newt gingrich has little if at all infrastructure in nevada. but here is his point about the frontrunner. >> is it good new for the republican party to nominate obama lite? your concern is with conservatives you do not say you don't care about the poor. if you are a conservative you believe we are help do youd by our creator with certain

inalienable rights including life, liberty and the pursuit of we happiness. my goal is not to ignore or forget the poor. my goal is to turn the safety net into a trampoline to allow the poor to rise. >>dave: but most of the press has not been favorable to newt gingrich and he missed the photo op with the governor of nevada and the trump endorsement went the wrong way so there is not a lost momentum when he gets it, it could be super tuesday. >>alisyn: he is referring to the hot water romney got into this week when he said in an interview, i'm not concerned about the very poor in this country, which sounded callous, but what he meant, he said, was there is a safety net for those people, the larger portion of americans, middle class, they feel down trodden, so, rick santorum when after that "i'm not concerned about the poor

comment," also, and here is his take. >> mitt romney said today, i don't care about the very poor, and went on to explain his comments and i read it. he said i care about the middle class. i care about the 95 percent, i don't care about the very rich and very poor. if there is a social safe net that is broken i will fix it, i don't care about it. i care about the people who are hurting. out of touch much? >>dave: you need to hear the entire thing. i am not defending it but you ought to hear the whole thing. >>clayton: this comes after the comments about he likes to fire people, so people jumped on that, he likes to fire people and the very poor comment and the donald trump endorsement, so people are saying,, and in the

"wall street journal" it was politicallable ineptness and mitt romney is not talking about it and he did say he misspoke about it, but he is staying on message and going after president obama on leadership. take a listen. >> this has been a tough three years and this president, this is a time we needed a leader. you go back in the history of our country, and thomas payne said you should lead, follow, or get out of way. we elected him to lead and he chose to poll and it is time for president obama to get out of the way! >>dave: and colorado and minnesota on tuesday and no debate until february 22nd a big factor not race. >>alisyn: how will we live without that? and now more stories to tell you about including an update to a story from early. authorities say a person is dead and two hurt after an explosion near a marine corps training base if california. this happened at a housing unit

around 9:00 p.m. last night. officials say an explosion believed to be propane-related, set off a fire in a duplex and other structures were also damaged, and 14 families were forced from their home. police in riot gear converged on the remaining occupy sites, look live at a scene in washington, dc, where protesters are refusing to listen to the police orders to clean out. officials, rather, officers arrived on horseback this morning and protesters chanted and police warned the demonstrators they had to remove the "tent of dreams," with no arrests made yet, and we, keep an eye on that. and at the super bowl, they will not only take your food order but be looking out for terrorists. n a more serious take on the super bowl, the t.s.a. is reportedly training more than 8,000 stadium vendors, parking

lot attendants and bus drivers to be able to detect threats and there is no specific threat to the safety of the super bowl fans, it is of course better to be safe than sorry. >>clayton: and now rick and the forecast. rick: big snow across the areas of colorado yesterday and now across nebraska and totals over 4' across the foothills and denver 14" and boulder 20". here is the storm now, rain on the warm side across the south maybe a few thunderstorms and now, heavy snow falling across eastern parts of nebraska and the west coast is looking spectacular with sunshine from seattle down toward san diego and that will continue all day long today. back to you. >>dave: a bummer for colorado,

the mountains really needed that. and to indianapolis and the super bowl. what is up? >> you know this better than anybody, when you go to a super bowl people are always wanting to know what was it like to be this at the game and the week leading to the game and every city is different and i thought i would give you a look at what super bowl xlvi is like. let's watch. we the super bowl is not just about two football teams trying to be world chaps but ait bought place it is held and for indianapolis is it the first super bowl and time for me to get a sense of this city. >> talk about the super bowl. what has it done for the city? >> incredible. as good as it will even. >> you are in traffic. it would not be happening if not for the super bowl.

does that bug you? >> in doubt. >> who is indianapolis doing? >> gorge out, a wonderful city, a great expense. >> not like new york and i love new york but a different story n two years, want your wallet. >> go giants! >> we found in passionate patriot fans. >> giants or patriots? >> patriots. >> it is crazy compared to, it feels like spring break for adults. >> i get excited when i see celebrity. , who is going to win? giants or patriots? >> giants? giants? no? no? what about the patriots? will they win? all, fine.

>> that dog spoke sign language he will star in the vw ad, and the zip lines i will be doing that and one great story showing you what the people of indianapolis are like. last night i was on foot, went to the nfl network party and i thought i had to go see something else but the problem was it was too far away and i am walking and getting cold and i went into a bar, which anyone would do, and i went and tell the guy where is the party and he said you have to go two more blocks, i'll drive you! he owns the bar, he left the crowded bar, he drove me, he had no idea i worked at fox and he drove me because i was from another town, and he want add good impression, to the place, and dropped me off! >>alisyn: my gosh! what is the name of this bar? >> name of the we bar is basey's

and the owner's name is greg, anyone in indianapolis, go to this place because this is the nicest guy around! >>alisyn: this doesn't happen in new york city. >> just go over there. if it happens in new york city, if it happens in new york city in two year dozen not get in the car! it's a trap. in indianapolis you can get in and drive. >>alisyn: thank you for that tip. great. what a warm and welcoming city. >>clayton: much more coming up including joe montana and rex ryan. thank you. >>dave: it seems like mitt romney is a safe bet in nevada but what does nevada mean for the rest of the candidates? that is ahead. wake up!

>>guest: they do, the one this matters the most is donald trump's endorsement of mitt romney. it gave romney momentum going out of florida and kept the real big problem out of the race for him later on and gives trump if he decided to run as an independent it would have demolished his chances. it was significant. >>alisyn: chip, what do you think in nevada with sharron angle? >>guest: i could not agree more with joe. and sharron angle does make a difference in nevada, and the caucuses and the smaller type endorse presidents this matters more. >>alisyn: let's talk nevada, it is an interesting state. some say it is anomaly because not many places have legalized prostitution and drive through wedding chapels, but some say it

is a microcosm in demographics, 60 percent white, 20 percent hispanic and 8 percent black, will be there surprises in nevada? >>guest: i don't think is. one of the key differences is 25 percent mormon in the republican primary so, rather, in the caucus, so that will give romney a huge advantage here and he should win this. the only surprise -- but ron paul has a strong organization and he might be able to surprise, i doubt it, but that is where the surprise could come. >>alisyn: do you think, chip, after today the field is slimmed down? >>guest: well, i doubt it. since we are a super bowl weekend romney probably wins by two touchdowns but why think it will give anyone any reason to get out. it is still fairly early not process but when romney puts a

"w," on the board and it will be big today the path for the nomination is steeper for the other folks and it creeps along every day. >>alisyn: thank you chip and joe for coming in with your input. nice to see you guys. stay tuned. ♪ [ male announcer ] a simple gesture can spark romance anytime. and when it does, men with erectile dysfunction can be more confident in their ability to be ready with cialis for daily use.

>> a he says i don't think it is the role of the federal government to regulate people's habits on rods deemed "safe," by the f.d.a., the government is trying to regulate personal habits. >>dave: we talk about a small soda is now 32 ounces but should the government be the one stepping interest your home and telling you that and telling you what your kids should and should not eat? >>alisyn: should they spent $232 million to do so? >>clayton: it is calls parenting. >>alisyn: but, obviously americans need edge because the vast majority are overweight. >>dave: you think a 46-ounce soda is healthy? you need more stimulus. >>clayton: bea debate last week about cheese, remember this, not ads and the question i ask a guest, why does the government, then, have to pay to promote cheese if we are having laws that are advertisement getting us to not eat thing why do they do things to promote

foods? >>dave: we want to hear from you. shoulds it taxpayer dollars going to tell people what not to eat? >>clayton: i don't need an incentive to eat cheese. >>alisyn: i know that. and now, breast cancer foundation susan g. komen for the secure has reversed the decision to with hold funding from planned parenthood. the group now says it will only block grants to organizations that are under criminal investigation. they decided to pull grant money from planned parenthood after a probe was launched by florida congressman with claims that the group was using federal funds for abortion. they say the decision was not "political." another person comes down with the mysterious illness in new york, and it has plague add high school with 16 students there, and this is a 36-year-old nurse believed to be the first adult diagnosed with the symptoms, and

days and, not spring, not 50's or 60's but in the 40's and the storm moving through is weakening and moving toward the south so i could see snow tomorrow, across places like washington, dc, very briefly, but anywhere to the north of that it will be just fine. look at the maps right now, and temperatures are not that bad but still cool across the plains, and when i say "cool," in the 20's and it could be a lot colder than that and to the southeast, the warm sector where we hat the severe weather today, and the forecast for the day, today, shaping up like this, into the notes, 46 in new york, and mid-30's across the interior sections, and as you go to the south we will see most of the shower activity with the same system it will be rainy and a few themes cutting across the lower mississippi river valley and the warm sector with 60's and 70's toward the far southeast, and snow continues across nebraska and into iowa, and, then, toward fargo, 32 degrees, not that bad and in the

into the post-season and the super bowl. >>guest: that is true. but we were 0-3, we had three cracks at the teams and were boat all three times but what i know about the game, it will come down to the wire, and you look at the last two teams the two teams played each other that is exactly what has happened and this game will be the sail. >> the giants do not beat the jets and, maybe, cruise and run 99 yards to give the giants the lead, the giants are not hear and coughlin fired. >>guest: i don't know about that. tom coughlin is an outstanding cope, no question about that. and always had a great deal of respect and admiration for him and the job he does. that is an excellent football team. but i think that team against us, when they hit that big play on us, obviously, it demoralizes you and it propelled our team and you look at them now and

they are playing as well as anyone. >> people say, well, the jets are ready to go and they will not have training camp, you went to two afc title games and fell short and now you are watching your two rivals play each other but in the off season you got greg and thomas, all coming out and saying the locker room is fractured. >>guest: this is easy, a strength of mine, to bring a team together, and i will learn from it. this year, you know, you step back and you learn from it. you do every year. but, when you don't make the playoffs and you don't reach your goal, you don't even make the layoffs, obviously, we need to take a strong, hard look, and i said i never had the team like i normally would and that is something that will not happen again. we can repair this i don't anything there is any doubt.

we have started to take those measures but well be a close football team. >> the big story here is peyton manning and he will go to joe montana's route, the colts can not rationalize giving him $26 million after three neck surgeries how interested are the jets? >>guest: any player uncontract with a team i'm not allowed to comment on, so, the nfl will fine me, i been fined enough this year by the nfl so i will take a pass on that. >> i know you have a history with peyton manning until the last time, i read your book. how great would it be to have him on color side? >>guest: again, i don't want to get in trouble. >> what do you expect to happen with mark sanchez? >>guest: it will be great, woody is at a lot of practices and around and a visible owner, and he cares deeply about the

players. >> i will have a hunch, i sense you will be watching the super bowl on your, because nfl -- you are a verizon customer, nfl mobile will stream it and you can watch it online. >>guest: the purse time that the nfl will, you can watch the super bowl on your verizon phone so that will be neat all you have to do is hit "star, star, nfl," and download on the point and watch the super bowl. a i like, whether you are having a super bowl party, or you are, whatever it is the you won't miss any of the action on your phone whether it is, you know, somebody hitting "pause," or "eating," or whatever. >> i grew up in a jet household and my friends are jet fans and if i was a giant fans if i had that i could have left the room while the jets were annoying me. how excited are you as in a

movie where you are called up to ask to be a patriot fan in the next movie? >>guest: right when he said it was adam sandler and i thought it was somebody messing with me, but it was great, the fact that it was him, on there, asked me to do it and it was fantastic. >> are you good? >>guest: i'm not no robert deniro, that's for sure. >> he would have rejected the role. rex ryan a thrill to have you here, we will be watching online, the verizon customers. back to the studio. >>dave: rumors about his quaterback dating kim kardashian is not true, saying she is not dating mark sanchez. rumors patrol. >>alisyn: is she a good luck charm or kiss of death. >>dave: kiss of death.

tallahassee. so, again, this new guideline allows students to continue to retake the test until they can pass? what do you think? >>guest: garbage, everyone gets a trophy and a diploma. >>dave: they say the new grading system, no zeros 3rd through 8th, and students can retest until they pass, and the highest grade is records and there is not an average of all the scores. does this almost punish the kids who succeed the first time out? >>guest: the kids that even try, sure, it does. and it punishes the teachers. it punishes the business community, it punishes anybody who ands for accountability and work ethic. this is horrible. >>dave: the superintendent says our teachers are expected to identify why the students fail and work together with the student to re-teach the material

to hopefully ensure the student mastery of the skill. my reaction is, teachers are already stretched beyond formal schedules. how can they have time to not just keep up with the students wore succeeding but retest the other kids? what do the teachers think of it? >>guest: they don't. and you are letting the nuts run the asylum, letting the kids dictate the kids they take tests and succeed. it is an embarrassment to our community and, obviously, to the communities outside. we saw a blog, 400 to 500 comments outraged, all. and our local paper ran a story on wednesday and they have a comment section, as well, and 200 or 300 comments, and i saw two positives and every other one to the negative. this is just a disaster. i hope we are not the grand experiment. >>dave: you are, the positive is the kids do not get left

behind but what was the process? did they talk to the students and the parents before making this a new rule? >>guest: no, and no feedback to the community, as all, not business community or parents. the surprise was the past friday the new policy went home in the kid' friday folders so parents looked at it and by monday i had an easy week on talk radio. >> scott, this is raising some eyebrows, thank you for joining us from tallahassee, and we want to hear from you, students allowed to continue to take tests in will they pass let me know on twitter. coming up, let the showdown begin in nevada, with a live report at top the hour, and, building a wall of pizza outside on the plaza, pizza for patriots wake up!

>>alisyn: good morning, everyone, on saturday, february 4th. more voters about to cast a ballot or at least a caucus vote this morning as nevada gets underway in an hour. will this be a game changer for any of the final four? we have a live report ahead. >>dave: another friday night. another late night white house document dump with hundreds of pages of e-mail claiming the solyndra taxpayer loan was conditional. so, what were the actual conditions? can't wait to hear. >>clayton: a billionaire would never miss as chance to public -- push for taxing the rich but warren buffett is avoiding playing by husband own rules. why isn't the mainstream media talking about it? "fox & friends" hour three

starts right now. >> wow! the place holder. that is great stuff. he is in end indianapolis showing us fun games with kids all morni. pulled a charlie brown on us. lucy! >>alisyn: he will share a heart warming story with us in indianapolis. >>dave: and a great story having to do with rush limbaugh. who is playing in the super

bowl? >>alisyn: the patriots and the giants. >>dave: super super bowl xlvi. you are if heaven, your weekend. you have been waiting for. >>clayton: it will be interesting to see for the political types so many thousands have descend on las vegas not to vote in the caucus but to watch the super bowl kicking off at 12:00 noon eastern, and the caucuses will, and it will be interesting to see casey in las vegas watching down the strip. is anyone excited about caucus or more excited about the super bowl? >> more people that are actually visited are excited about the super bowl not the caucuses but the people who live in nevada obviously this is a very big day, 28 delegates are up for grabs today with this caucus and they will be awarded proportionately to the candidates based on the percentage of votes. not a winner takes all which is causing so were controversy as

we know down in florida with the new england campaign, and the results being contested and what is going to happen, today, the caucuses are closed for registered republicans, the sign up ended two weeks ago, and folks show up, first voting to pick a permanent chair, and then people will have two or three minutes to speak, each, and then they will decide which candidates they are backing and delegates will be chosen. this is very different from a primary in that voters do not go into a booth and cast a ballot but, also, not run by the state itself, rather, the state republican party and all indications point to mitt romney sweeping the caucuses today, early polls show that he has 45 percent of the vote here opposed to newt gingrich 25 percent and as did you know he won this, the former massachusetts governor, back in 2008, with 51 percent of the vote. >>alisyn: thank you, casey, so they start at it will noon in

nevada. >>clayton: and go really late. we may not get runs so if you are waiting for returns 2:00 appear is when we will get returns. >>alisyn: or you could just weak up at 6:00 a.m., and join us tomorrow. >>dave: and bret baier has a special tonight. an interesting situation for the candidates on the stump because they have been hitting on the economy throughout, and the obama administration has miss handled the economy. there is no recovery and then the jobs numbers on friday, the employment rate goes down to 8.3 percent and 240,000 jobs have been created, and, also, the dow at a high since 2008 and the nasdaq at 11 year high, and can i add a few other things including the federal government jobs down, something that republican candidates, private sector jobs increasing, and manufacturing jobs going up, and if you look from wall street announcing the one concern is,

well, the seasonal jobs because it was warmer in january, so the manufacturing jobs and construction jobs were outside, and it was warmer so we can see a dip if it is colder. >>alisyn: so it could be tough for the candidates to figure out how they will spin in on the trail. here is what they came up with? (inaudible). >> this a very weak recovery compared to, say, the reagan recovery at the same point and there has been a congressional budget office wanting unemployment could go back up this summer and fall. but clearly the president ought to feel better and i think he probably should take a bow and claim credit. >> the recovery is slower than it should have been and people have suffered longer than they should. will it get better? i think so. i don't how long it will take. good news on job creation.

>>dave: but the last three or four months headed to november will tell the story and the could be says we will have unemployment near 9 percent, if that is right it is a different story. >>alisyn: absolutely. >>clayton: it is how you feel, not the numbers, how you feel three or four months before the election. is your neighbor working? do you have money in your wallet? and the numbers from the jobs report there could have been bad news and this is what the republicans were tag about, 12.million americans remaining unemployed who stopped looking altogether. >>alisyn: 43 percent have been unemployed for more than six months, and that is part of the feeling of despair that permeates the job market. >>clayton: and the 1.2 million americans that lost the labor force altogether. so, yesterday, we had to find out what newt gingrich thought about the trump endorsement because if you were reading,

most people have normal lives, right, this we go to work and are concerned about their family and are not reading the political websites throughout the day but everyone was mostly guessing wrong in politics, with newt gingrich getting trump's endorsement, and there were jokes that rick santorum would get the endorsement so newt gingrich talked about this. >> look, the donald is an amazingly good manipulator of media, and he has had another moment in the sun, and he will be back again later, and you have to admire him for his ability to do that. >>alisyn: all in stride but shockingly the media got some of it wrong. a lot people thought that he was, newt gingrich, would get the we dorsement because when he visited new york city and had lunch or dinner with donald trump it seemed to be a romance. he agreed to the debate.

>>dave: i was surprised that both agreed it is a significant endorsement that will help mitt romney. >>guest: and rick santorum blasted donald trump saying it was showmanship and he wanted people to come to his trump real estate property in las vegas and get the press out this. that is what santorum said. >>alisyn: what do you think? send it to our twitter account. and authorities say one person now is dead and two others hurt after the explosion near a marine corps training base in california. this happened at a housing unit near the marine corps' mountain warfare training base in coleville last night. an explosion believed propane-related set off a fire and other structures were also damaged and 14 families were forced from their home. iran's revolutionary guard starting new naval exercises after the leader warns the

united states and israel of possible attack on the nuclear facilities. this is video from military exercise that iran said is conducted last month and the exercises are taking place in the southern part of the country and iran threatened to close the strait of hormuz, a critical gulf oil tanker route to retaliation for tough sanctions from the west and the u.s. and allies say they will respond to any blockade. another friday night document dump from the white house, 300 pages of documents about the failed solar firm solyndra, coming after republicans warned of pursuing contempt charges. fox has obtained the e-mails that show that the energy department made a conditional loan guarantee to the company months before the full loan. and the white house claims it was previously disclosed and the energy department gave a $535 million loan guarantee to solyndra under the 2009 stimulus.

those are the headlines. >>dave: great job. terrific. >>clayton: and rick, he deserves a pat on the back. rick: guys, association all the big snow across colorado yesterday is thousand moving to nebraska and it will be there all day long because it is a slow moving storm, and the southern side of the storm is warm and we will have severe weather with that and watching indianapolis with rain today, but, tomorrow, looking very fine for the game which is great news and big storm yesterday bringing around 14" to denver and the latest quarter from denver is 15", the biggest snow ever in denver. and a few flurries but through lincoln and toward omaha and around des moines, all snow, and that will probably bring well over a foot and the warm side of

the storm is heavy rainfall and severe weather overnight, and across parts of arkansas and hail yesterday into they next -- into texas. texas and oklahoma have been so dry but some areas have seen 4" to 5" of rain, more than they have seen in the last six months. a little too much too quickly. still warm today in the south, 83 in tampa but the rest of the country is still looking not like winter. just yet. guys? >>alisyn: clayton and dave spill their drinks all time and i believe something may be growing on our carpet. >>clayton: i am growing an urban garden on this carpet. some basil. >> the fact is if you spill

something it is blame the girl in the middle. knocking around, knocked your stuff over, make you guys look good. >>alisyn: i knew it wasn't me. thank you, you know all about this. tell us about this great heart warming story that developed yesterday. >> listen to this. yesterday if you watched the show we had a lot military men serving in the region come on, and one was senior master sergeant who is from the new england area and serving in indiana and will do the stuff for the preshow and hoped to win a lottery for the game and that is him talking, the only new england guy in the area and in indianapolis they hate the patriots. so, captain limbaugh saw this show, and she get him two tickets for the game. so she called him up yesterday, talked to rush and they got two

tickets and he now is going to the game. today. simi because the kindness of the limbaughs who are, did not get miff me permission, they do not want publicity but i wanted to show you there are appreciation for the people in the military especially in this case. he was elated and, almost, almost as happy as dave is when he fines out clayton is sick and someone else is filling in. >>alisyn: that is great. a if story. nice to know they were watching and they took action like that. >> coming up a little later, joe montana, and howie long, coming up shortly. >>clayton: so filmed and i e-mailed you last night, joe montana was my childhood idol. >>alisyn: and the boys has farrah.

>>dave: president obama pushes for higher taxes on the wealth was by invoking the name of warren buffett. >> i believe we should follow the warren buffett rule. >>alisyn: but the c.e.o. may be working on a plan to avoid his own buffett rule by shielding his wealth.

our guest says he has never seen a businessman get such a free pass. why don't we see the underbelly of warren buffett? charles gasparino is there at the game. that looks fun, charlie. >> i'm giving it to you today, giving you his underbelly. >>alisyn: how could he avoid the buffett rule? >>guest: listen he shields most of his taxes through -- he benefits, warren buffett earned $40 billion, his net worth, something along those lines through the lower capital gains rate. so, the very thing he is decrying, he actually made his fortune from, and he has thrown his money into the gates foundation where he is shielding the taxes now, and he -- this is a lot of hypocrisy and you look at his record, we should point out warren buffett is a great

investor, i am not saying there is anything wrong with that but look how he made his money, the investments in the past, and it ape that much different from mitt romney, if you call mitt romney a agreedy capitalist who put his money in private equity and there were people that lost jobs, warren buffett did a last the same stuff. and there was a company that at the heart of financial crisis moody's, one of the rating agencies that rated the bonds that caused the financial crisis, guess who is one of the biggest investors? warren buffett. >>dave: and "new york times" had a front page piece attacking mitt romney's connection to goldman sachs and how he has made money off of goldman sachs, and nowhere in the piece did it mention the $5 billion investment from warren buffett. so, look, some say they the perfect model for private equity, isn't it? >>guest: well, you are right.

and as he told fox, he was making something like $1 million a minute off the investment which was, as you know, paid out because it was goldman sachs was bailed out by the federal government and it really, is, unbelievable hypocritical thing to be looking at mitt romney attacking him on one end and allow the president to use warren buffett as a prop on the other end. >>alisyn: but back they the evading of the rules it sounds like you saying to we all gave our money to charity, we, could avoid paying taxes and he made a joke that is how he will dodge taxes, he will give it away. have fun at the super bowl. >>dave: enjoy the game. still ahead, remember bringing in cupcakes and doughnuts to school on your birthday? now that could be a anyone -- thing of the past.

>> just shut up. you had me at "hello." >>dave: that was a drag jerry wright doing the jerry mcguire

theme with a future hall of famer, and rice wore that wig and before that gonzalez got into it. >>alisyn: it was turning. >>clayton: and a man who knows jerry rice very well, down at the super bowl city with my childhood idol. >> were you embarrassed forgery? >>guest: well, no. >> have you seen him in a wig before? >>guest: but he was scary looking. >> do you realize it has been 30 years since the catch? 1982? >>guest: impossible. i am 25! >> what do you remember about that? no one believes they were champions, and that is proving to anyone that you can count.

and people believed as you go to the super bowl, that you could win? >>guest: it was a storybook year for us, we came out of nowhere and a pretty good team, i don't think people realized how good the team was. but it was probably not the west of all the awards but we had a good group. >> you and terry bradshaw are the only with four super bowl rings and if brady wins he ties you guys does that mean he is as good? >>guest: i don't thing he has to problem he is as good as anyone, he is as good as anyone right now, and chances are he will be here a few more times before he retires. >> peyton manning is going through something i think very similar to what you went through, he gets hurt, comes back and the team moves on, they moved on to steve young and you moved on to kansas city, do you sense he has to move on now? >>guest: well, i don't think

that's necessary, i think there is a difference in the fact that everyone thinks angelo is the next great one in the lead but no one knows whether he will make the transition, how long it will make to make the transition so if i am the colts i want the comfort of peyton. i would not like him to go. will it happen? there is a lot of money on the table unhike when i played so chances him being here i think are slim. >> i will be playing on the directv celebrity super bowl and the last two years i had a chance to play, i am worried about being cut next year, are you my quaterback? >>guest: i don't who on my team but if you are this we will get a touch stone. >> what kind of rap do you most prefer i am sensing i will go long a lot and i will cut over

the middle, what do you prefer? >>guest: well, to we are getting you separation, and thessest way is sideways so i don't care where you go but we will work it out even to we have to set some of the illegal kicks >> that is what i like to do because warren goes for the hot women all the time and leave the others out in the cold. each year we have a chance to do this, did you injury this? >>guest: i enjoy being here with you but it could be better. >> what could be better? >>guest: i wish clayton --. >> you prefer clayton? >>guest: i always see you. >> is that true? >>clayton: the greatest moment of my life. >>clayton: i will tear up. >> he cheered for you as a child? >>guest: i appreciate that. i do. appreciate. >>clayton: a dream. i watched every game, and i still have vhs tapes of you

playing, my favorite tapes you and john elway, monday night game, and dave is going do cry he marches down the field and you march down the field with, i don't, with four seconds, and you win. unbelievable. i still have that vhs tape at my house. >> the 1983 quaterback class you were third round pick and you did pretty go. >>guest: i think they will win by three or four. it will be a good game but unless the giants can get to him like they did in the first game but it is hard to bet a team twice in the same year. >> coming up shortly, airing for a year. joe, thank you, great to see you. >>guest: my pleasure. >> a chance to get a beer. in peace. back to you guys. >>dave: i interviewed joe before the super bowl the last time the patriots played the giants and that was bad luck for my patriots so maybe were

sitting down with joe is good luck. >>alisyn: i am sure it was just you the problem. >>dave: could have been. >>clayton: should president obama be using the bible to promote tax increases? my name is robin. i'm a wife, i'm a mom... and chantix worked for me.

>>clayton: police in riot gory at the nation's capitol at one of the remain, "occupy" sites. >>dave: that is going on, pert? >>peter: nobody has been arrested here in washington, dc. the occupier dozen not have to leave the camp but they do have to get rid of all bedding equipment because the park misery mines them that the national park service regulation prohibits camping in that area. we got our hands on the catching enforcement action notice the park police handed out, and it says that all of the tents have to have one side open at all times and there cannot be any catching material like sleeping

bags inside and the letter warns that if anyone does not follow the rules this time, they will be arrested and the catching gear will be confiscated. aside from a few occupier whose climbed up on a statue and some shouting things have been peaceful so far although this morning it looked like law enforcement was ready to rumble they arrived in the dark in the pictures before 6:00 a.m., on he mets and forts and the police set up their own tents, and that is to spray the occupiers away from the camping site and as it develops there was confusion initially about why the police were there, and catchers were crying out their first amendment rights were violated but the police assured them their rights were respected and they would only inspect the tents from an escort and it has worked well because an officer and an occupier shake hands. >> back to you. >>alisyn: and now the

headlines. another person has come down with the mysterious tourette-like symptoms in new york. they have plagued many students at a high school. this is a 36-year-old nurse who is believed the first adult to she the symptoms. the latest case after more than a dozen teenagers in new york were displaying similar symptoms and doctors are saying they have singled out the possibility of this being caused by a neurological infection, a bacterial infection but it is not confirmed yet. >> she was sworn to uphold the constitution of the united states but should supreme court justice be tasked with writing a new set of laws? do not expect her to look to the constitution for pointers. >> i would not look to the u.s. constitution if i were drafting a constitution in the year 2012. i might look at the constitution

of south africa. >>alisyn: that comment was not recommending our own constitution as a model for egypt's post mubarak government. a new jersey school is saying god by to birthday cake, the springfield school says cupcakes are going to be banned going forward because of childhood obesity and food allergies. parents say it is ridiculous. >> it is sad because kids can not be kids, it is not the school making kids obese but them going home and doing nothing. they are kids. let them be kids. >> parents say the icing on the cake is a policies rolling out in midyear so some students have already been able to celebrate with sweets. >>clayton: it reminds me a show from seinfeld, i have to eat another cake today. >>alisyn: i feel like that. >>dave: i love a day with the

snow and sun. and to get in a seinfeld show. rick: i am outside without a long coat in and it feels fine. but across parts of colorado the only spot we have been talking about there has in the been much winter, seattle and denver are the two only big cities in the country above their average snow fall this year and denver, yesterday, picking up 15" as the snowiest storm ever in the month of february but toward the foothills we saw up to 50" of snow and the foothills are on the wrong side of the mountains from the ski areas so the plains need the snow and that is good and areas of nebraska, that will be good for the farms and such, as we move forward into spring. and as you wake up this morning, cool across the west and warm into the southeast, and that is where we will see the showers today, and on the forecast map, into the northeast today, a few

light floorries in northern negative and we will see themes that could be severe and localized flooding into the northern plains we are talking about the know around nebraska and iowa today but warm toward the northern plains again and across the west, very night day. temperatures into the 50's in seattle and portland with sunshine and we are in february. amazing. they will take it. guys? and now politics. does romney have a message problem? he had a rough week. and we will ask governor huckabee about this. a rough week on the trail for mitt romney? even when rush limbaugh this week after the remarks on the very poor said he is the guy that repines, comes across as the rich republican. is that a messaging problem? >>governor huckabee: he cannot help who he is. he grew up privileged and had a successful life and he live as

life that very few americans can relate to but because of that he has a hard time relating to a lost members who are struggling. when mitt romney says something it is amplified, like spinal tap, it goes up to 11 and that is what happened the he needs to totally eliminate from his vocabulary the phrase "i don't care e because the perception is he doesn't. i don't think that's true. but --. >>alisyn: you say that is not true but look at what he said. he said, i'm not concerned about the very poor. and he said i'm not concerned about the very rich. only concerned about the middle-class. governor, you would never say you were not concerned about the very poor. why say that? >>governor huckabee: he was not saying he didn't care but that the focus, again, a matter of perspective, he didn't say i don't care what happens to the floor he said i am thought worried about or i don't feel like we have to spend the bulk of our time dealing with the

poor because they have safety nets. the rich have their health. >> and it is the amplification of something, people perceive him as rich so when he says i will make a $10,000 bet, and i like firing people, and he says when he does the speaking fees $375,000 is not much, and he talked about firing people. >>governor huckabee: he says if somebody doesn't do right i want to get rid of them and find someone who will. >>dave: but we don't give context in 30-second ads. hope and change was simple. there was not a lot of context. that put obama in the white house. what obama says really angered a lot of people especially religious folks in this country when he mixed religion and politics at the national prayer breakfast. >> i think to myself, if i'm willing to give something up as somebody who has been extraordinarily blessed, give up

some of the tax breaks that i enjoy, i actually think that will make economic sense. but for me as a christian it also coincides with jesus' teaching that for to whom much is given, much shall be required. >> much should be required of whom? of the state government in is what that jesus is talking about? >>governor huckabee: luke 20:25 render unto caesar that which is caesars and unto god that which is god's. the problem that president obama has he believes it is the government's responsibility to take kay 6 the poor and the orphans and the widows. actually, that is the responsibility of families and the church. now, here is a president who has only been to church a few times since president, so it is not like he is getting overwhelmed and overdosed with the good sense of the gospel. >>alisyn: he says he prays with his ministers in the white house and he says he get as missive that he prays on.

>>dave: is he missing the point. >>guest: he gave 1 percent of his personal income away, 1 percent, for most of us who are practicing believers the minimum is 10 percent tithe. so his point is he says i want the government to come in and take it away because i'm not going to do it voluntarily. i have more respect for someone would faithfully gives his or her money away as part of charity rather than saying i'm not giving it but if the government takes it by gunpoint i will cough it up. that is not charity. i give my money it is charity. when the government takes my money it is theft. i'm not saying that it is theft, but, rather, a tax, but the idea that the government can spend my money better than me on poor people is absurd. that is what we ought to look at. i would look at every candidate that says they love jesus, what kind of steward are you? what kind of faithful responsible giver are you? if you are not giving don't tell me what a loving believer you

are because i don't buy it. >>dave: that may come back to haunt him. and a major flip-flop from the susan g. komen foundation.

>>dave: after getting a letter from 26 senators, the susan g. komen foundation reversing a decision to cut off funding to planned parenthood but say though did not succumb to political pressure. >>alisyn: governor huckabee, it sounds like it got to them that there was this social media campaign and they decided to continue the grant to planned parenthood which allows lots of women to have health and breast exams. >>governor huckabee: the tragedy this this is the stain it left with a remarkable woman, nancy, who is absolutely a tireless worker, who started the

susan g. komen on behalf of her sister who died of breast cancer and she has poured her life and heart and soul and money into the organization for one purpose: nothing to do with getting political about breast cancer. it was all about helping women live and survive. and it is tragic the planned parenthood organization now tries to present themselves as a "health organization," when they are primarily an abortion provider. they provide some services i grant you that. but they are maybe on the fringes or external portion of what they are primarily all about. the bulk of the money is about providing abortions and susan g. komen because they were under investigation and they have a rule against -- that is what it is about. susan g. komen did not make it about abortion but the fact they were under investigation, and they have other organizations they have done this for. but in this world of 30-second sound bites and 24 hour news

cycles they got caught up and the tragedy is that a wonderful organization like susan g. komen has been slammed. >>clayton: and another wonderful thing is the huckabee show and you have one of the wonderful guests of all of hollywood. >>governor huckabee: i am utterly jazzed, meryl streep is without question the most remarkable actress probably of all time. and, her portrayal of margaret thatcher in other iron lady is stunning. it has been controversial but it should not be. it is a magnificent portrayal. she has an oscar nomination for it and we will talk with her about that policemen and a lot of other things that you have to tune in for. >>dave: and including my favorite, "mama mia." >>clayton: thank you, governor, great to see you.

of business but i figured it out every business is the sail. you need to collect good people. you need to set firm boundaries. the nfl is set up to be eight and eight parity so you need to bring in managers who will be bold, do things that other people are not willing to do, and then, if it doesn't work out, back them. same in every business. >> a lot of heart in your team and this year, a crushing loss of your wife in july. while the league was going through the walk out and your arch rival put his arm around you and gives a hug and the players and owners it did not matter, human being to human being. >>guest: and, jeff, for me to embrace at my darkest moment one of our most bitter rivals, it is a great statement of the mutual respect both sides came together

and did this labor agreement so we would not miss any games so we would have football. and it is a good lesson for washington. they put america first. that we create jobs. that we compete against the rest of the world. and that's in the nfl, we got together with our union and we are competing against entertainment products in america. and if we missed games, our fan base would have been so angry with us. >> i want to talk about >> best of luck. >> we also are anonymously giving tickets to people who come back from overseas, and

of the year, valentine's day putting a candy ban in place. kids don't have any teeth, do they? "fox & friends" hour four starts right now. ♪ >> clayton is getting a jump on our super bowl party. what have you got over there. >> dave is already sleeping in our recliner, this is the ultimate super bowl party and check out with they saw in the stewed he yo, the world's largest speaker. >> the world's loudest speaker? >> that won't be distracting at all during the show. look at the size of this puppy. >> dave: this thing is awesome. >> clayton: you want to hear more. >> dave: no, no, we don't.

>> dave: at that would take up ali's entire apartment. >> alisyn: that's the size of my apartment. >> dave: great super bowl gadgets for your party and today not just about football, it's about politics in nevada, the inform neve caucus, underway in just a couple of hours, and it looks like the smart money in sin city is on mitt romney, guys. >> clayton: if you're a betting person. >> geraldo: in nevada, you may be, and they say that mitt romney is going to win, and, but, it's not over, obviously, newt gingrich is doing what he can to take romney down a new rungs and it may. >> and nominate bomb light. if you're a genuine conservative, first of all, you don't say, you don't care about the poor. in you're a genuine conservative, you believe that

we are endowed with certain unalienable rights. and my goal is not to ignore or forget the poor. my goal is to turn the safety net into a trampoline to allow the poor to rise. . >> clayton: a lot of the candidates seizing on that, following the comments that mitt romney made about the very poor and of course, he says he misspoke and they were taken out of context and that didn't stop rick santorum for hitting him once again on the comments. listen to him. >> when mitt romney said i don't care about the very poor, and then went on to explain, his context, he said i care about the middle class. i care about the 95%. i don't care about the very rich and the very poor.

if there is he' a social safety net, i don't care about them. i care about the people who are hurting. out of touch much? >> out of touch much. you can tell he has teenagers at home. out of touch much? but he makes the point that many so many put that mitt romney had a tin ear when it it came to something like that, unemployment rate in nevada is higher than the national average, it's 12.6 so a lot of people there, one of the highest in the kun and a lot of people are out of work and hurting. so, he may be punished for that slip of the tongue in nevada. >> dave: 58% of the homes are underwater in nevada and they are in big trouble and mitt romney of course, as you might imagine with what some say is 50% of the vote in nevada on the day of the caucus, he's keeping the focus all on president obama not his g.o.p. candidates, fellow candidates.

>> it's been a tough three years and this president, you know, this is a time we needed a leader. and you're he going back in the history of our country and thomas payne once said, you should lee, follow or get out of the way. well, we elected him to lead and he chose instead to follow and it's time now for barack obama to get out of the way. >> clayton: so, mitt romney expected to have a very good showing there in the nevada caucuses and also, all eyes on ron paul, nevada is all about the ground game and the caucuses getting the folks out, speeches by fellow folks there at different caucus sites across the state and ron paul could have a strong showing. >> alisyn: there have been a lot of surprises in this primary and analyst have gotten it pretty much wrong. >> dave: if there's only 1% in nevada that turns out for the caucus, and difficult to make a huge dent in the numbers today. we'll see. >> alisyn: and what else is happening outside of politics, we're learning more about the deadly explosion that's happened near california, near

a marine corps training base. police say one person has died two others taken to the hospital, suffering from burns and shock and it happened at a housing unit in coalville. about 30 miles away from the marine corps warfare training base and this is in bridgeport, around nine last night and officials say an explosion believed to be propane related, set off a fire in a duplex and they say other structures were damaged as well and more than 30 families were temporarily evacuated. and iran's revolutionary guard starting a new round of war games in the southern part of the country. this is video from military exercises, and the latest move coming after the country's supreme leader warned the u.s. and israel about possible attacks on nuclear facilities and iran threatened to close the straits of hormuz, a typical tanker route in retaliation for tankers from the west and a response to any blockade. they did it again, another

friday night document dump from the white house and this time, more than 300 pages of documents, about the now bankrupt solar firm solyndra. after the g.o.p. warned it would seek charges, and fox obtained the e-mails and showed the energy department made a conditional loan gaurn tee from solyndra before the full loan and the white house claimed it was previously disclosed and as you know, the energy department gave 550 million dollars to solyndra under the 2009 stimulus law. it was a mistake ended up saving her life. she thought she was having a stroke and she tried calling her son, but the ohio woman dialed the wrong number and ended up on the line with a strange named kenny crayeder in colorado. >> and first thing she said i'm having a stroke. so i was like, okay. and i didn't know who it was and i didn't recognize the number so i just was like, what's your, what's your

address i'll send a-- told her to sit down, i'll send an ambulance over to your house. >> that was quick thinking and he called the local police department and transferred him to police where 70-year-old smith lives and doctors said if she'd arrived at the hospital any later, she could have suffered severe damage, and she's recovering from what doctors are calling a mini stroke. so, good for that stranger. >> instead of hanging up. >> let's check with rick reichmuth, who is kicking back, lounging in our super bowl ultimate party center. >> this is the weather center, forget the party center. take a look at this. and remote control, the chair i could do this if if i could only turn this into the weather clicker and advance my maps. >> and getting massage. >> right up there. do the weather there, your football forecast, how about it, nicely done, clayton, i'm sure you're responsible for whatever happens here. very good. there's your forecast for the

maine, that's where it should be. okay, guys. >> alisyn: we like it. >> dave: i love. >> alisyn: as though we have to tell to you take a nap. >> take the shoes off. you know, it's appropriate, you're going to the super bowl party and probably going to get a lot of junk food, that's the best day. >> the clayton's buffalo dip is a killer. >> clayton: mom, i know you're watching. do we need the government to get involved in creating ads to try to get folks not to eat junk food? and one of the ads say cut down on the massive 32 ounce sodas, that you're drinking on a regular basis. do we want taxpayer funding and footing the bill. >> alisyn: you should have raised this earlier. 230 million dollars have gone to ads like that. that is controversial and, it was diabetes and how many americans now have type ii diabetes which could cause amputation. and it appears as though the guy in the ad is missing a

leg. what that tells you, that's a real person and the crutches in the background and seems to be missing the right leg. they photo shopped out his leg and the person does have two legs and they're saying like misleading government advertisement, with 230 million stimulus dollars. so, the lawmakers are angry about it. >> dave: we ask what you think about this policy and the bill to ban federal dollars from the ads and here is what you told us. here is what the congressman had to say specifically, i don't think it's the federal government's role to try and regulate people's habits on products that were deemed safe by the f.d.a. and the government is reaching too far into our lives and trying to regulate personal habits. >> clayton: the a lot of e-mails and tweets on this. we asked should the government taxpayers be footing the bill for the ads and footing the bill to promote things like, these are what people wrote. carol from texas, my tax

dollars went to purchase, and why shouldn't i enjoy the soda, it's taxation without free food representation. >> alisyn: and sort of, ads are not regulation, they are education. and the 230 million dollars went to ads to let people know that thr things like 16 teaspoons of sugar in every soda and that's what the government was trying to do. >> clayton: shouldn't that be the parents responsibility. then again if the parents aren't there, the kids are drinking 32 ounces of coke every day for lunch. >> dave: personal responsibility, we seem to be getting away from this this country and that's how you feel, keep them coming on twitter. and eric holder says he did not authorize the fast and furious operation. so, who is responsibility and why haven't they been accountable. we'll talk to the friend of the border agent gunned down during the program. >> alisyn: and then he's been

deemed too dangerous to be around kid, but one teacher is still getting a six figure salary. how is this happening? we're going to talk to gretchen carlson about it. ♪ can you enjoy vegetables with sauce and still reach your weight loss goals? you can with green giant frozen vegetables. over twenty delicious varieties ha sixty calories oless per serving and are now weight watchers-endorsed. try green giant frozen vegetables with sauce.

>> there's a tense showdown as house lawmakers, question eric holder over fast and furious. he defended his record while denying any sort of coverup. >> did you ever authorize the controversial tactics employed in operation fast and furious, illegal arms in order to build a bigger case? >> not only did i not authorize those tactics. when i found out about them, i told the field and everybody in the united states department of justice, justice that those tactics had to

stop. they were not acceptable and that gun walking was to be stopped. >> alisyn: he wants to know why no one in the department of justice is being held responsibility. she was friends with border agent brian terry who was killed by a gun traced back to fast and furious program. thank you for joining us this morning. >> thank you for having me. >> alisyn: i'm sure that you, as well as brian terry's family has been watching these hearings, what do you make of them? >> the last hearing is a little more of the same. eric holder still dopt take any accountability for the program. the program was funded. there was, you know, somebody had to sign for it. he's not volunteering any information of who signed for it, who authorized for it and he's also stating that he's been getting dults, when you're giving 6400 documents out of 90,000 documents, ap stating that you're fully cooperating, i don't really

consider that fully cooperating and a lot of answers he's given have been redacted. >> alisyn: not only has no one taken responsibility for what was done. no one we found out this week, has been penalized for it. something the congressman has brought up. >> why have you not taken steps to make sure that doesn't happen again? >> well, i have taken steps. and we're in the process of investigating that murder and the people who are responsible for it will be held accountable and i expect that you'll hear something about that relatively soon. >> alisyn: okay, so you heard eric holder say the people will be held accountable, but as congressman henry-- mchenry said, we find out you've not fired a single individual yet, you've not rebuked any staff members. what do you make of that. >> what he's done, he's moved atf agents around and no nobody has been fired.

which, at this point. i believe he already knows enough he should have fired people and at the end of the day, he's accountable. and the authority admitted that he has not given all the information that he should have when he knew he should have gave the information to be given. in my eyes, i believe that brewer should have been fired right there. somebody has to be responsible for the american people. people have been killed over this program. and besides brian terry being killed, you have zapata, 200 plus dead citizens of mexico that have already been killed and i don't understand why no one is being fired. he says based off the information that he has, he's not ready to make those decisions. well, the american people want answers. i think he made another reference that, he feels that the representatives that want him to resign, told him he wants the trust of the american people and he said i don't know whether i've lost the trust of the american people. well, obviously, you have.

go on social media, go on polls, on blogs, look in the paper. 13 months, no one is fired, no one is prosecuted. you have one for his death? this is a government program and this is the government's hands in this. like, you served your country, brian served when he was 18 to 40 and his country served him an execution by supplying the guns? >> speaking of social media and we can end on this, brian terry's mom posted a pretty gut wrenching post on facebook, mr. holder, why didn't you say my son's name and can't utter his name and she says that eric holder is a joke and a coward and obviously, they are still hurting so much as a result of all of this. lana domino, you were friends with brian terry, thank you for coming in and share your perspective protect on this. >> thank you. >> alisyn: up next, forget the candy hearts and chocolate, and schools are now banning kids from eating the sweets on

see you both this morning, welcome. >> good morning. >> elizabeth. let me start with you, is candy the problem here or is it something else? >> i don't think candy on a couple of really special days of the year is the problem. we don't, we don't want kids eating candy and sweets we ever day of the year, but on the special days, on the days, that the kid looks forward to it and forward to their friends and if the principals don't want them eating it during the school hours, they can pass it out at the end of the day, i think it's a symbolic gesture, we eat healthy and let's ban it. we should be focusing on eating healthy the other days of the year and let the kids have their fun and parties and it's kind of mean spirited. >> clayton: dr. keith ablow is that mean-spirited? what do you say? >> oh, clayton, here is the problem. it's momies out there thinking their kids should have anything they want and here is the principal trying to do the right thing. and he's not banning it it. he said please consider that you might bring other things.
