right about gisele's side after the game. our crew. we'll take you behind the scenes as "fox & friends" starts right now. >> welcome back, world traveler. >> yeah, indianapolis. yeah. >> bright lights and the glamour of indianapolis back to new york city. >> nice town. nice city. >> why he left the midwest, why you left the midwest is beyond me. >> i have it in my heart. >> in your heart, right. >> it's the caucus that never stops. >> the caucus is going on in minnesota today. we're going to get more on the politics and the my political theme in a minute. new details leading to more questions over the death of josh powell and his two young sons such as -- i guess powell was a person of interest in his wife's death. even he still had access to the
6:01 am
boys. that seems to be the big question. the three were killed earlier this week when he attacked them with a weapon. that's new information. and then set their home on fire and it seems like the signs were there but missed. powell donated all the kids' toys to a local charity one week before the tragedy and sent a good-bye e-mail to friends and family members. >> there were plenty of warning signs that he was capable, his wife was missing. under -- and there was absolutely no valid explanation of how she went missing. he was clearly the person of interest and had -- did something to her and why would you then allow that person access to the children on his own turf? it was a recipe for disaster. >> powell was the prime suspect in the disappearance of his wife. his father is being considered a suspect in jail for unrelated charges for child pornography. rick perry may be down but he's not out. is he considering now another run for the white house? for the first time since dropping on of the presidential
6:02 am
race, perry gave a speech last night at a dinner honoring president ronald reagan and left the door open for a future bid. >> i'm not slipping off into the sunset. i'm not riding off into the west. we got plenty of work to do here in the state of texas, david and i got plenty of fighting left in this old 61-year-old body oochlt peery admitted it was a tough loss but lessons learned on the national campaign will only help benefit texas in the future, he says. recent polls suggest the governor could face a tough race for re-election in his home state. his popularity took a hit after several stumbles on the national stage. u.s. sanctions on iran being called psychological warfare? that's right. ir ir iran's foreign ministry dismissing the sanctions on iran. they gave them the power to freeze assets linked to iranian
6:03 am
government. super bowl champ giants preparing for a ticker tape parade today in new york city. >> ♪ i got a ring ♪ we got one too ♪ we got one too ♪ i got a ring >> the team flying high on their super bowl victory seen here in you tube in the you tube video dancing and singing on the plane from indy back home to new york. eli manning made a stop on david letterman where he had this to say about the elite player status. >> in the beginning of the season, a new york sportscaster says to you do you consider yourself to be an elite quarterback? and you said yeah, i think i'm an elite quarterback along with your brother and the kid from green bay and tom brady and on and on and on. people went oh, well. what was that all about? >> yeah, i think i got set up a little bit. you know, if someone asking you
6:04 am
are you an elite talk show host? >> exactly. that's exactly what it's like. >> the ticker tape parade starts at 11:00 a.m. and conclusion with a ceremony where the mayor will give the team the key to the city. except they already have the key to the city because they got it four years ago. >> don't have to give it back. when you don't make the playoffs the following season. that would be wild and a lot of money to the city and a lot of ticker tape will be everywhere. >> that's right. from there, they go to new jersey where the governor of the great state of new jersey chris christie is going to host a great big rally for the new jersey -- >> huh? >> within two seconds and two minutes of the giants winning, governor christie was on the field and he's like i'm heading to the podium. let's go, baby. >> let's talk politics because there are some primary and caucuses being held today. three states are minnesota, colorado and missouri. but all three races are nonbinding so what does that mean? well, it means there were really be no results today. >> it's ridiculous. what are they doing this for? >> minnesota and colorado work in a different fashion.
6:05 am
they actually hand out their delegates at their own conventions, i believe it's in april. missouri, i don't think they ever have -- what do they do with their delegates? >> they're going to have their caucus on the 17th of march. here's the way they did it. in missouri. there's a law -- you can see the delegates at stake in those three states. in missouri, it has been on the books, it's been the law that they've had to have the primary today and they didn't want to anger and get penalized by the republican national committee and have some delegates taken away so today, they're going to have their primary and they're going to wind up caucusing on march 17th. that's when they're actually going to allot the various delegates. >> the results are going to be interesting because you got to get a sense of what of these candidates are doing inside these states. you remember while newt gingrich and mitt romney was slugging it out in florida, where did rick santorum go? he went to missouri, he went to colorado and he went to minnesota and it might indeed be paying off. it looks as though in colorado
6:06 am
mitt romney was on top but then the other two there's an excellent chance that rick santorum could prevail. that could change the tone and tenor of this race. >> there's a huge poll out right now by rasmussen. guess who the only g.o.p. candidate is who is beating obama in that recent poll by one point, rick santorum. i mean, this is a stunning turn of events. here we go again because you have rick santorum within the margin of error, 45% to president obama, 44%. how does the president stack up against mitt romney in this poll? the president wins 49%. mitt romney 42% and even bigger victory if he's up against newt gingrich, 49% obama. gingrich 41% and paul, 50%. paul 58%. >> big chunk of rick santorum's lead in that particular poll according to rasmussen's small print is the fact that he's bounced up 10 points with independents and apparently, independents like his message and they feel that mitt romney has taken it in the gut from the various attacks by mr. santorum
6:07 am
and newt gingrich as well. they don't like that and they don't like the fact that mr. romney has made a couple of gaffes as well. >> i find that fascinating, though, because we've been debating this electability thing for months now. and the prevailing thought process was that mitt romney was more electable than the other candidates in the g.o.p. race. but now you have this interesting poll that shows that rick santorum is gaining speed with independents. he would be the last person using conventional wisdom that you would think would gain with independents because he is usually attacked for being too far to the right. too religious. too traditional values. and would not be able to attract the independents. the idea that he's gone up 10 points with them is fascinating to me. >> tim pawlenty is doing the attacking against rick santorum. you know, mitt romney when he ignored newt gingrich paid the price and got hammered in south carolina. now he sees these numbers and he's going against rick santorum essentially saying he's been an ineffective senator and look
6:08 am
what he's done in terms of pork barrel spending. >> exactly. we are talking in that case about the rasmussen poll. brand new gallup poll that came out yesterday that said mitt romney is at 35% essentially tied with the president of the united states. real clear politics -- >> with independents? >> across the board. national gallup poll. real clear politics poll, romney up by 6 coast to coast. nonetheless, rudy giuliani was on our air last night and criticized the back and forth between the frontrunners, says it's doing damage to the republican brand. >> the attacks that offended me the most is when romney became a democrat to attack newt and newt became a democrat to attack romney. attacking romney over bain is stupid and dumb and attacking newt over what went on in congress which was a democratic plot to get back at him because of what he did to wright was like acting like a democrat.
6:09 am
what are we doing that for snoo --? >> you have another reason why rick santorum may be surging. you remember in the last two debates in florida, when they were going after their throats, it was rick santorum who had his best debate performances and a lot had to do with he stayed out of the fray and the only one talking about policy on the stage and my personal opinion that voters are really looking for that candidate talking about policy and moving forward and stopping the infighting. >> all right, other big story to talk about infighting, it turns out i think there might be some tension in the new england patriot locker room when it comes to spring training next year and practicing over even winter workouts. gisele bundchen who according to some reports in the studio is an attractive supermodel married tom brady. she was very upset about some of the execution because her husband played so well. and so many others didn't. like, for example, his receivers, here's an example. here's what she said after the game.
6:10 am
>> we saw in the locker room tom brady walk out, actually after being ex treenlly upset for about half-hour. walk out. there he is. walking by you. there you are. >> right. when i go to talk to you after the show, gretchen, you just keep walking. >> yeah, right. coming upstairs to do radio today. >> that's right. tom brady, we followed him out and then we see him with his wife. >> what did she say in that blurb she accused the receivers, right, of dropping passes and they -- well, they did. i mean, i don't know if it's right for her to accuse them. what she said was correct. they did drop some crucial passes. >> apparently what happened just before that video as she walks through the v.i.p. elevator is apparently a giant fan said something like hey, eli owns your husband! and by the time she got over by the elevator, then she said you have to catch the ball when you're supposed to catch the
6:11 am
ball. my husband cannot and then she uses a word that starts with an s like fire truck, he cannot throw the ball and catch the ball at the same time. >> these are the drops that we put together because of the window of airing the super bowl will cost us millions now. these are the drops that could have been executed but you never point a finger at somebody else. she has no idea that she's being taped at the time. she's talking to her friends by the elevator. >> i think the most important thing is that tom brady didn't point the finger at anybody when he did the press conference, he didn't go on to point the finger. obviously he's a quarterback and the leader of the team. he understands that you would never go there. his wife, i mean, is it off-limits that we should be criticizing his wife who by the way as brian points out didn't know -- >> she is a public figure. >> ok. well, do you know that every single time you're walking around and saying anything out of your mouth there's going to be a video camera. >> she's in a public place. >> that's scary. >> the boston blogs -- welcome to the world 2012.
6:12 am
the boston blogs say not cool to curse at people and even worse to criticize your husband's teammates in public and then somebody else said maybe she's the reason he havenlt won a super bowl since hooking up with her. >> oh, please! >> they always say that about the guys when they get married. >> john mcenroe did, and the guy was in the prime of his career and married tatum o'neill and never won again. >> there were a few other issues there. but anyway -- >> what do you think about gisele unloading on her husband's teammates in -- and you know, it was taped. it was out in the public place. is it over the line what she said or just fine? she is married to somebody who is in the game of his life. you could twitter us, twitter.com/fox and friends or e-mail us, friends at foxnews.com. >> another week, another green energy disaster. the government gave the car company millions of dollars and now the company is laying people off? stuart varney with the late breaking details straight ahead. >> and come look at your television screen. talk about living on the edge. a closer call for a snowmobiler
6:13 am
and it's all caught on camera. i'm in a tricky situation here. i'm bidding on a 1979 dukes of hazzard lunchbox, but my auction ends in 15 seconds ! even worse, my buddy's bidding on the same lunchbox. it's airbrushed ! but i've got verizon 4g lte. it's so fast that i can outbid him at the last second. i got it ! yes, i won ! woo hoo ! it's got a thermos ! rely on verizon 4g lte.

6:16 am
>> all right. back in 2009, vice president joe biden traveled to his home state of delaware to tout green energy car maker fiskar automotive. >> the president and i have never doubted that we could write a new chapter in the
6:17 am
automotive history of this country. and that's what this is about today. it's about -- it's about what we're about in this administration. rewriting a new chapter for our economy. >> how is that chapter turning out? after receiving hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars to produce luxury electric cars, fisker is announcing it's going to lay off an undisclosed number of workers. why? get this. so it can qualify for more government financial aid. >> staurt varney is here to try to explain this. we always give you tough assignments. >> this is another embarrassment for vice president biden and another disappointment or can we say failure of the president's green energy policy, it's another loss for taxpayers. this company, fisker is now in the ridiculous situation of having to lay off green workers. and all that qualify for more green loans. >> why is it? do they have to be of a certain size company wise? >> yes, they have commitments
6:18 am
of over half billion dollars of federally backed green energy loans. they've taken so far $193 million. if they want to get some more, they have to meet certain performance targets, financial targets for the company. they can't meet them without laying people off at this factory in delaware. so they lay off green people in order to get more green money. torturous logic. >> is one to assume had they performed better, they would have been able to keep those employees? >> if there was a market for their product, there is not much of a market for plug-in electric cars in america. >> how much is the fisker? >> the one that you have video of earlier is a classy looking sports car and that costs $ $102,000. it is made in finland. they've shipped 225 of those cars to dealers in north america. i don't know if any have been sold. the factory in delaware was going to make a smaller, cheaper version called the nina.
6:19 am
that factory has now had all these layoffs. it's not going to produce the nina any time soon. >> the president is not only not backing off, he mentioned that in the super bowl. he said we have to pursue new technology and new forms of energy so he's not stopping. >> doubling down. >> if there was a market and if people were going after these electric cars, plug-ins and hybrids, if they were doing that, you could say ok, invest some money. this is a market that's going places. even with gas at $3.50 a gallon nationwide, you're still not selling. the volt sold 600 in december. that's it. by the way, no one talks about the fact that i have a hybrid car and i went to the huntington mall and i got to park in the front. yes, for hybrid people. >> i would say we're equal but we're not. >> he has a hybrid program. it's not just business. it's always news, it's politics. check out varney & company, starts three hours from now. >> i would love to give hybrid
6:20 am
kilmeade on the show. >> you can't afford me, varney. >> thanks, stu. >> here's a good question for you. do you cling to your guns and your religion? remember, the president said that once and it's because you're bitter. well, our next guest says that's just the tip of the iceberg. >> and the super bowl ad featuring clint eastwood creating a lot of controversy and we're about to add to it so stick around. that's detroit, right? people really love snapshot from progressive, but don't just listen to me. listen to these happy progressive customers. i plugged in snapshot, and 30 days later, i was saving big on car insurance. i was worried it would be hard to install. but it's really easy. the better i drive, the more i save. i wish our company had something this cool. yeah. you're not... filming this, are you? aw! camera shy.
6:21 am
snapshot from progressive. plug into the savings you deserve with snapshot from progressive. i remember the day my doctor told me i have an irregular heartbeat, and that it put me at 5-times greater risk of a stroke. i was worried. i worried about my wife, and my family. bill has the mos common type of atrial fiillation, or afib. it's not caused by a heart valve problem. he was taking warfarin, but i've put him on pradaxa instead. in a clinical trial, pradaxa 150 mgs reduced stroke risk 35% more than warfarin without the need for regular blood tests. i sure was glad to hear that. 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 a bleeding condition like stomach ulcers, or take aspirin, nsaids, or bloodthinners, or if you have kidney problems, especially if you take certain medicines. tell your doctor about all medicines you take, any planned medical or dental procedures,
6:22 am
and don't stop taking pradaxa without your doctor's approval, as stopping may increase your stroke ri. other side effects include indigestio stomach pain, upset, or burning. pradaxa is progress. if you have afib not caused by a heart valve problem, ask your doctor if you can reduce your risk of stroke with pradaxa.
6:23 am
>> hey, some quick headlines now. amanda knox wants another charge cleared from her record, slander. she was cleared of killing her roommate in italy but the slander stuck for falsely accusing a bar owner. the lawyer has filed for an
6:24 am
appeal. new information on that teen barista abducted at gunpoint from a coffee stand last week in alaska. samantha coning's father says she filed or a restraining order against a man who was too scared to show up for court. he says she didn't even know the man for very long. steve, gretch? >> thank you, brian. remember when then candidate barack obama said this about some americans back in 2008. he said "it's not surprising then that they get bitter. they cling to their guns or religion or apathy to think who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations. >> but after traveling across the country, our next guest isn't surprised that people are clinging to their guns and their bibles. joining us now, radio host and author of the new book "dispatches from bitter america" todd starnes. good morning to you, todd. you were covering the campaign so you had a chance to talk to a lot of folks all across america. are they bitter?
6:25 am
>> no. that's the crazy thing. i grew up in the south and gosh, i'm a gun toting chicken eating son of a baptist myself and i realize that most of my family, they tote around guns. they go to church. and they don't seem all that bitter. and i think the reason people cling to their guns and they cling to their religion is they're afraid president obama is going to take them away from him. >> that's one way to look at it. >> so your book is a compilation of stories as you have traveled the country and you've seen how bitter americans as they have been tagged are living their lives. trying to live their lives despite the fact that big government is trying to mess things up. >> they're not bitter, they're blessed and they're very concerned about the direction of this country and what president obama and his administration has been doing to this country. taking away the traditions and the values that have made this the greatest country on the face of the earth. >> one of the things that you talk a lot about in the book is the attack on christianity. >> right. >> and you have a plethora of examples but give us one. >> gretchen, there is -- there is no doubt in my mind that this
6:26 am
add -- administration has declared all out war on people of the religious faith, specifically christians. one of the examples happened early on. the very first christmas in the white house when the obama family, the president and his wife were debating whether or not to have the nativity scene taken out of the east room of the white house. now, this is why it's important to read "the new york times" from cover to cover. that little nugget was actually in "the new york times." in the style section about 38 paragraphs into a story. so this just gives you one idea of their mind set when it comes to things like the holidays. >> sure, plus you also look at culture across the country. explain to us, if you would, todd, how your pizza delivery guy could determine the kind of health care you end up with. >> healthy dose of satire here and i suspect this won't be a stocking stuffer at the white house, this book. i took some of the president's policies and said ok, let's imagine what would happen if in fact these policies were complemented.
6:27 am
one day i got sick and had the sniffles in my book and i went to my daughter and he was closed. he was working in starbucks. they had benefits. he directed me to the government's new local health care provider and as a result of all of the cutbacks they've actually hired my old pizza delivery guy to determine my fate. >> it comes full circle. you also talk about how schools are becoming so p.c. that they don't even allow brownies or cupcakes or birthdays anymore. instead, they want kids to bring in carrot sticks. >> that's right. in my book, the president has appointed a chocolate czar to eradicate ch eradicate chocolates and goodies away from schools. according to barbara walters, paula deen makes us fat as well. >> if you want more information, go to toddstarnes.com. he launches the book this week. good luck to you. >> thanks. >> government workers accused
6:28 am
of fraud still collecting paychecks and unemployment? guess who is footing the bill. it might be you. >> great. plus if your dad is your main squeeze this valentine's day, stick around. we have lots of puppy love coming your way, mr. kilmeade. it looks nice in massapequa. what's this? it's progresso's loaded potato with bacon. it's good. honey, i love you... oh my gosh, oh my gosh.. look at these big pieces of potato. ♪ what's that? big piece of potato. [ male announcer ] progresso. you gotta taste this soup.
6:29 am
6:30 am
6:31 am
6:32 am
>> one of the most talked about commercials and one with clint eastwood when he said it's halftime in america and our second half is about to begin. the bad news -- china has the ball and we're down 15 trillion. ok? yeah. he didn't tell you that part. didn't tell you that part. >> yeah, here's something else they didn't tell you, when you watch that and in the beginning, it is hard to tell what it is a commercial for. last year, eminem made one for chrysler. talking about detroit making a comeback and the more you listen to clint eastwood talk, you realize he's talking about how detroit has made a comeback. you think these pictures would be of detroit. then you'd be wrong. >> the outside scenes at least like this tunnel right here is in los angeles and some of these scenes are also out of new orleans, apparently, now, they
6:33 am
did use photos and images and video that they had of detroit already in house, so to speak. but many people will be upset to find out that a two minute commercial talking about the comeback of the city never invested any money in that city to actually shoot the commercial. >> uh-huh. i guess, i mean, i'm just used to the fact that if you're going to put an ad together, you're going to get a sound stage, whatever it takes to make it look smooth. unless it's a documentary, i don't have a problem with it. >> yeah, but they use los angeles and new orleans rather than using -- >> j. lo did the same thing and went back to the old neighborhood that happened to be santa monica. >> she took the heat for it, too. >> the bigger thing for me and i don't mean to cut off your thought, brian, was the whole idea that clint eastwood did that ad because it's become what people are talking about. you know, was it an endorsement of any sort for the administration in bailing out the auto industry or did he just want to do it as an icon, as an american and say, hey, we're moving forward? some people thought of it as an endorsement for the obama
6:34 am
administration. >> mark mckinney came out, he was bush's and mccain's advertising guy, he said it is ambiguous enough it could be construed as helping romney. he said "it's halftime in america and we are way behind. we need a new quarterback." that's how he's thinking of spinning it. >> karl rove says it's a not so thinly veiled endorsement of the car bailout and you have clint eastwood himself where he talked to one of bill o'reilly reporters producers on the phone yesterday about it? he said i'm not affiliated with mr. obama. it was meant to be a message of job growth and the spirit of america. clint eastwood said look, i'm not working for barack obama. sorry, folks. >> stunning move this morning. an entire staff at a school in california will not be there when students return to class this thursday. 88 teachers, 40 support staff at the elementary school are being replaced after two teachers were
6:35 am
arrested for lewd conduct. parents are still looking for answers. >> we want justice! >> i want everybody to know they're covering up something. that's why they don't want the media. >> he said we want to listen. we can stand outside. they're not letting us do that. >> the entire staff has been trained to come to the classrooms to take over teaching for the time being. as for the current staff members, they'll report to another location to be interviewed about the arrests. how do you fire 80 people for what two people did? >> oh, man! >> not sure. call it a mad dash for cash. we have our first official account of the dirty money games going on behind the scenes at m.f. global. now, according to an attorney who is searching for $1.2 billion in missing customer money, ceo jon corzine let chaos reign inside his firm just to make a quick buck. we've told you before m.f. global used customer money to place big dollar bets on the european markets. according to the new report, once those failed, customers made a run on the bank. employees couldn't keep up. some transitions were entered
6:36 am
incorrectly while others weren't entered at all, apparently. after four months of searching there's no sign of that missing money. m.f. global went belly up last october when they tried to turn the firm into a global banking powerhouse. >> meanwhile, they've been cashing your check for nearly three years free and clear. government workers collecting unemployment. they work for the government! they're not unemployed. well, this week, nearly 100 city workers in washington, d.c. were put on administrative leave after an investigation found they've collected more than 800,000 dollars in unauthorized unemployment benefits. most of them were unemployed at one point but when they did get jobs, they just never bothered telling the agencies that mailed the checks and so the checks kept coming. great. >> speaking of checks, check out this close call. a snowmobiler in wyoming can't see the path ahead probably because it wasn't the path. it was the edge of a cliff.
6:37 am
the mystery man slams on the brakes just in time. he stops just short of that edge as a giant ice boulder plummets a few feet in front of him. able to stumble back up and get down the mountain safely. >> i wonder if he caused an avalanche with that thing. let's go to brian with some very cute pups. >> very true. if you suffer from puppy love, the donny osmond sung about, valentine's day is the perfect time to show your pet just how much you care. yep, here with some tips or as pet expert and author and talk show host, he wrote the book called "dog talk" harrison forbes is here. welcome back. nice to see you. >> thanks, brian. >> let's keep in mind any time you take a shot of these dogs, these young puppies are all adoptable from the north shore
6:38 am
animal league so they're going to walk around the table with us and we're going to show you some exciting things to get for your dogs. let's begin. >> tv debut. all right, this is the coolest tech product i've seen this year. this is the tag gps collar and a lot of people think my dog doesn't get lost that much. like for valentines you want to whisk away your significant other on a little vacation. can't leave fido at home, you know, i don't know if they'll take him out. this has a bread crumbing feature so you can go on your smart phone and look while you're sitting on the beach at cabo and say hey, you know, they took him out. they went a smile. -- mile. they're doing what you paid them to do. if you paid somebody to walk the dog a mile, you can track that. >> if someone parties with your dog next door. >> it will alert you that your dog is out. you can see where he is. dental health is something more and more studies are showing that proper dental health can add literally years to your pet's life. here we've got these --
6:39 am

6:41 am
a puppy and didn't cost you a cent. it saved a life. can you see this dog's eyes? can you see that? look at her eyes. >> got different colors. >> they're different colored and you can actually see right through them and this is the most gentle dog i've ever seen and dare i say if you're going to get one, you should get two because they get along great. all right? and steve and gretchen, i got something for you. i got three dogs for you. here you go. there you go, steve. >> got me. >> congratulations. >> all right. >> hi, little guy. >> there you go. >> go to the north shore animal league and adopt these dogs today and if you're looking for a valentine's day gift, why not think about the pet and less about the woman. >> all right? >> thank you, harrison forbes. >> thank you very much, mr. kilmeade. right here. >> aren't you cute? >> let's talk about what's coming up. maybe these dogs will hang out with us for the rest of the day. what do you think about this story? here's a prescription for truth. the five things your doctor or vet won't tell you. we have that coming up. >> and there's brian with the big dog and one of our supreme

6:46 am
constitution of the united states. why did supreme court justice ruth bader ginsburg have this advice for egypt as they try to build their own working democracy? >> i would not look to the u.s. constitution if i were drafting a constitution in the u.s. 2012. i might look at the constitution of south africa. >> oh, boy. judge andrew napolitano joins us live. so here she is. she's supposed to interpret the u.s. constitution. she's supposed to love the u.s. constitution and she says hey, egypt, if you want to build your own constitution, look to south africa or canada. >> well, south africa's constitution is very different from ours. let's start off with size, as you can see. there is -- >> got a big -- >> there's an inch and a half thick, ours is this. this has other documents in it besides the u.s. constitution but ours is about three to five pages whereas this is 160. because the south african constitution lists in far greater details all the things that the government is obliged
6:47 am
to give you. in the western world, we believe that our rights come from our humanity and things like food, shelter, clothing, health care, a gym membership are goods that we can acquire if we work hard. >> so the south african constitution entails your entitlements. >> yes. the south african constitution says if you can't afford food, shelter, clothing or health care because you have a right to it, the government will give it to you. >> one of the things about her is i understand she has said in the past that when she's trying to figure out which way to rule, she sometimes looks at foreign law. shouldn't you be looking at the u.s. constitution and not foreign law? >> yes, you should. this is a particularly offensive relatively recent trend for supreme court justices to look at foreign law. now, they may have written something down in their laws which is interesting. but the culture that animated the laws, the manner in which the laws came into existence is
6:48 am
so different from ours, it ought to be considered irrelevant. justice ginsburg is of the view that this constitution is alive. >> right. >> meaning that its interpretation and meaning can change every day. justice scalia on the other hand says this thing means the same thing today as when it was written, that's the whole purpose of it. she says no, each generation can interpret it differently. >> it almost in reading her comments, it almost makes it sound like she was going our constitution is kind of old, it doesn't really reflect what's going on. but that's the beauty of our constitution. >> it is the beauty of our constitution. there's language in here that can adapt to the modern era and language that was relevant when it was written. >> does she know what she's doing? >> well, she knows what she's doing in that she has a mindset and an attitude about the virtues of big government and she's going to interpret this in such a way as to let big government flourish. how much longer she's going to do that is really up to her. she's 78 years old. she's a very, very liberal

democrat. she probably wants to leave while a like minded person is in the white house. so she's reading the election returns. >> all right. judge andrew napolitano, check him out on fox business with "freedom watch" each and every night. tonight at 8:00 and 11:00 p.m. eastern. >> thank you, steve. >> thank you, judge. coming up next, what your doctor is not telling you. our medical a team is on the case. plus unplugged during the super bowl. >> whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. what did you just do? >> the hilarious game time pranks caught on cameras. you don't want to miss this.

6:53 am
>> so what isn't your doctor telling you? well, it turns out it could be a lot and we're about to change that. joining me now is a member of our fox news medical a team dr. armadi and he's chief of robotics surgery at mount sinai medical center. there's an interesting article that came out that said there are things maybe we should pay closer attention to. the first thing is they don't know everything. what's that mean? >> it's true. what they're talking about is that doctors don't have all the answers. so when you walk into the doctors office, you expect to have all the answers. you expect to be really cured of whatever the issues are but the truth is that science and medicine has grown over the past decade or so and it's becoming more and more complex so it's almost impossible for any doctor to have all the answers. it's more details. if you look at the textbooks of medicine 10 years ago, maybe it was only 100 pages. now it's thousands. so if you're not happy with the
6:54 am
results that you're getting or you're not getting the kind of outcome you're getting, get a second and third opinion and talk to other people. they may know something that the first doctor didn't know and then you make your final decision. >> you say one of the other things that happens in that, lots of times doctors prescribe all these extra tests that maybe makes it seem like they don't know what your diagnosis is because they're afraid of malpractice. >> i think the consensus is that sometimes doctors may give you a prescription or may apply a test just so they're doing something to make you feel better. second question that and talk it a few other people and make sure is that the right thing for me? >> nobody two, what doesn't heal you may kill you. this is specifically talking about antibiotic overuse. is it a major problem? auto >> it is a true problem. we see a lot of this in the hospitals. more and more are becoming resistant to the antibodies that we're using. a lot of these infections are more viral. they're not bacterials and, you know, doctors are giving these prescriptions to the patients sort of because we don't really know what we're treating and a lot of times within 7 to 10 days
6:55 am
these bugs will heal on their own. so it's like let me make you feel better kind of antibiotics but be careful about taking them because long term, you may become resistant to it and then when you actually need it, it may not work. >> all right. number 3, c.p.r. doesn't work, huh? >> well, i thought this was a little bogus. what they're saying is in about 90% of the time, cpr may actually not help you because these are very sick patients and probably had a lot of heart disease or diabetes or high blood pressure. it only works if you have some sort of a cardiac storm and that's 5%. i don't know what to make out of this. does it mean we're going to stop giving cpr to the people that aren't doing well? it doesn't make much sense. for now, the emergency team will continue to too -- do it. >> stress tests don't say much. >> what they're really pointing to is the stress test usually is given when the patients have symptoms and now a lot of doctors are using stress tests even when the patients are not asymptomatic or have no symptoms
6:56 am
so are we overdoing it? are we doing too many back surgeries and giving too many of these tests? are we doing too many stents and etc.? question, the doctor, look, i don't want this to be a jihad against doctors because i think we have really good doctors out there that are working hard to make you feel better. there are always some bad apples out there that may or may not do the right thing. get a second opinion and make sure you have all the answers. that's what it comes down to. >> all right, dr. david sumadi, thanks so much for breaking it down for us. a teacher said she wanted her students to drown and a judge just cleared her to get back to the classroom. how does something like that happen? plus the government now trying to nickel and dime our troops, paying them an extra $7. that's right. $7 for each day in a danger zone? aren't all wars dangerous? all zones, too? ♪

results. in the meantime, check out the huge guest list today. missy may trainer of beach volleyball fame. >> she won a gold medal in the last olympics and she wants to do it again. >> laura ingraham will be here. the actor sir michael cane will be joining us. >> really good actor. newt gingrich wants to have a really good day. will he? he'll talk to us live about where he goes from here. he has a plan still to win the nomination. >> he does. he'd like more debates believe it or not. curt schilling, you know him, fantastic pitcher for many, many years. hall of fame material and dr. drew as well. he's got a lot of advice for people who are really messed up and he's going to drop by and -- >> even has a show about that. >> he does. >> right. >> in the meantime, let's get right to your headlines for a tuesday. disturbing new details about the deaths of josh powell and his two young sons. powell attacked his sons, ages 5 and 7 with a weapon and then set their home on fire. and it appears the signs were there but missed. powell donated all the kids' toys to charity just one week
7:03 am
before the tragedy and sent a good-bye e-mail to friends and family members. >> there were plenty of warning signs that he was capable, his wife was missing. and there was absolutely no valid explanation of how she went missing and he was clearly the person of interest and did something to her. why would you then allow that person access to the children on his own turf? it's just -- it is a recipe for disaster. >> powell was the prime suspect in the disappearance of his wife. he hadn't been charged. now his father seen here, steven, also being considered a suspect. he's in jail on charges of child pornography. governor rick perry may be down but guess what? he's not out. in a sitdown with fox's shannon bream, the texas governor suggested he might consider another white house run. >> not surprised. i went home and rearmed and reloaded my mags and i'm going to be fighting on a different front.
7:04 am
>> perry spoke last night for the first time since he dropped out of the campaign for a dinner honoring president ronald reagan. he faces an uphill battle for his race for re-election as texas governor first. the war against iran being called psychological warfare? dismissing the sanctions and saying the move will not stop their nuclear program. president obama recently signing the order to give u.s. banks additional power to freeze assets linked to the iranian government. a circus stunt goes seriously wrong in front of a live audience. you can see there are motorcyclists attempting to fly across the arena when he hit the cable and plunges 25 feet to the ground. a circus worker was also hit in the face by a flying cable. the biker broke his leg but both are expected to recover. and those are your headlines.
7:05 am
now, was he falling on that or right on the floor? >> wait a second, there could be a thing -- it looks like a fan. >> could be some sort of a pad. they immediately turn out the light. >> was he off course or something? >> i don't know. he went too high it looks like. >> all right. let's talk a little bit about what's going on in the world of politics later on today, they're going to be holding primaries and caucuses in minnesota, colorado and missouri as well over on the big board, you can see 128 delegates are at stake. they're not going to pick them today. they'll wait until after tuesday before they do the picking. in missouri, newt is not on the ballot because he didn't pay the $1,000 filing fee but rick perry is, michelle bachmann is, herman cain is and jon huntsman is and with the state of colorado, ron paul thinks that's a good state that he could possibly finish first. >> right now, rick santorum is in the lead in minnesota.
7:06 am
he took over for newt gingrich and newt gingrich actually is on the record right now saying that santorum's strategy was better than his in the last couple of days. he's saying that by skipping nevada, santorum did the right move by moving on to these other states since nevada was going to go to mitt romney no matter what. gingrich acknowledging that and saying that rick santorum did the right thing and he's leading in a couple of other polls as well. >> between the farce that was the iowa caucus and nevada counting votes up until three hours ago, we have this that they have three contests, the average person doesn't live and breathe this, you have three contests, costs a lot of money. people will interrupt their day to go and vote and will be nonbinding delegates until the following month. what does it do to the tallies? nothing. what will it do in the big picture? a lot. rick santorum will be right in the mix and considering newt gingrich's latest slump, he might be considered the best option outside of mitt romney for the republican party. >> right. and there's a brand new
7:07 am
rasmussen poll out that shows that despite newt gingrich saying rick, get out. there you can see it right there. rick santorum is the one that beats the president of the united states. mitt romney as you can see has faded a bit right there. newt gingrich is back as well and ron paul at 38. more on that later on. >> that's fascinating also because rick santorum has found a 10 point advantage now or 10 point rise amongst independents and so many people said well, somebody who is that conservative is not electable. that was the prevailing thought process about choosing mitt romney as more of a candidate that the independents might go for so why are the independents now surging for rick santorum? it's an interesting question. i don't have exactly the answer for it. let us know if you do. >> as you know, catholic leaders across this country are furious and seem determined to gather together and become a very angry voting bloc against the president for what they think is anti-catholic move with their new health care reform bill. he says never before, the quote
7:08 am
is from the catholic leader bill donahue who is here all the time from catholic league, he says never before -- this is unprecedented in american history for the federal government to line up against the roman catholic church. will he in fact get a backlash to candidates on the republican side seem to be picking up a lot of that anger. >> absolutely. and the provision is that it would -- that under the new health care law, it would require catholic institutions like universities and even catholic hospitals to pay for contraceptives and also sterilization. >> or get no federal funding. >> exactly right. they've got a big choice. well, anyway, and in fact there's a story out today that u.s. bishops are contemplating a massive march on washington, d.c. bussing in thousands of people, kids and school buses, all to protest this. rick santorum, we've got him reacting right here. he's reacting to the fact that the white house is saying, look, you guys don't understand what we're trying to do here.
7:09 am
also, mitt romney. listen. >> that's just a bunch of poppycock. i mean, that's just ridiculous. i mean, look, mr. president, we're not that stupid! i mean, the catholic church has been arguing and negotiating this for a year and the administration is saying oh, it's just a misunderstanding. it's just a bunch of bull! they are folks who are trying to use their power to force people to do things that they believe they should do. and that are right. and they don't care about their religious beliefs. look at their conscience cost protections which are outrageous and discriminatory against people of faith. and guess what? they do provide some protections for some religious groups. just not catholics. >> i'm just distressed as i watch our president try to infringe upon those rights. the first amendment of the constitution provides the right to worship in the way of our own choice. this same administration said
7:10 am
that churches in the institutions they run such as schools and let's say adoption agencies, hospitals, that they have to provide for their employees free of charge contraceptives, morning after pills, in other words, abortive pills and the like at no cost. we must have a president who is willing to protect america's first right, a right to worship god. >> all right, so you saw two of the candidates there going after that new policy that's part of obamacare. in the meantime, let's do something a little bit lighter. jimmy kimmel wanted to challenge people to prank their friends and family during the super bowl by doing something that many people might think is criminal. unplugging the television right before some of the last plays. here's the result of what happened in some households. >> whoa! whoa! whoa! what did you just do, dude? >> what are you doing?
7:11 am
>> you see that christmas tree right there? it's february. it's february. you're not watching the game until you put the christmas tree back where it belongs. >> whoa! >> whoa! >> oh! oh! >> ♪ move with my >> what the -- >> all right. all right. all right! all right! all right! >> turn it on now! >> oh! >> very emotional game. of course, came down to the last second. brian, you were right there on the field so i can imagine how upset people would be. >> i think the people just in looking at this little montage was people that took his suggestion to unplug it, the people who actually unplug the tv in a little more trouble than the people who just hit off on the controller because, you know, if you unplug it, then the tv has got to reboot.
7:12 am
it takes five minutes. >> good boy. >> just the on/off, you can have it up in no time. >> even the dog's team. >> just amazing. >> all america stopped to watch until you pull the plug. that's a great idea. >> who won by the way? >> not even sure. i didn't see the end. 12 minutes after the top of the hour. getting your kids to school late, is that a crime? two parents are slapped with charges but is it fair? we're going to report, you're going to decide. >> plus the government now trying to nickel and dime our troops by paying them extra for days in a danger zone. aren't they all danger zones?

7:17 am
first. not 18-year-old kids and by the way, people don't understand this. if you go into the military, the starting pay is about $18,000 a year. >> oh, yeah. >> they get paid almost nothing. you rise to the rank of colonel and you're getting paid about $45,000 a year. >> check this out, you know it well. entry level pay $14091. they're very short on money. they say that they get paid and they don't complain, they get paid as much as guys in the band. >> think about this. they don't get any overtime. and i don't know a single special forces guy that doesn't put in 70 hours a week. >> and hasn't been deployed 10 to 15 times. >> marriages are falling apart. we have put more stress on the military. this is the absolute last place where we should start cutting pennies. >> and it's outrageous. nobody is standing up. i talked to the general on sunday and he said when it comes to health insurance, they do have to pay a little bit more. he doesn't see a problem with that.
7:18 am
and that could be part of the sacrifice. >> people can cut $480 billion over 10 years and over $6 billion is out of control. >> people are going to be screaming about these increased health care costs. the only way to do it increase the co-pays. it has to happen. >> tell me about "kill shot", the book that you wrote. >> this took a little longer. i was diagnosed with cancer 15 months and about the time i get into writing these, i couldn't sit. it got so painful. so i had to go through 40 treatments of radiation. and this is kind of -- this is an ode to robert ludlum. i didn't read growing up. i loved robert ludlum. when i sat down to write this, i wanted it to have the feeling of the old novels where the hunter becomes the hunted. >> where's the stage? >> paris. starts out in paris. mitch is there, kill a libyan diplomat behind pan am lockerbie.

states and highest per television in 26 years. >> is it impossible to fire bad teachers in new york city? a teacher who said that her students were the devil's spawn and implied it would be good if they all drowned is headed back to classroom after a manhattan judge she posed no harm to the kids. >> kyle olson is the founder of the education action group and producer of a tale of two missions with juan williams that you can see on our web site. good morning to you, kyle. >> good morning. >> what's your problem with what this teacher said and now the fact that it sounds like a judge says too bad you can't fire her board of education, she's got to go back to school? >> well, it's outrageous. i mean, how can a parent when they find out about this, how could they possibly have confidence in this teacher? and you have to feel for the parents who want to try to have their child go to a different teacher but don't have that
7:25 am
option because, you know, the other classrooms are full and what this comes down to is the fact that you have a policy known as tenure where after just a couple of years, it's two years in new york city, teachers cannot be fired for these types of activities. and then they basically have to commit and actually be convicted of a criminal activity in order to remove them from the classroom. >> and we've heard so much about new york having flagrant abuse of this type of thing. they had the so-called rubber rooms where they just let these kinds of teachers who had been accused of these things sit darned all day and collect their paycheck. they had the absent teacher reserve that we had spoken to you before. is this only new york or happening all across the country? >> it's all over the country so it's easy a i think a lot of the blame belongs with the teachers unions because they create and they defend these types of policies. but also blame lies with the politicians, whether it's school boards or legislatures and governors because the legislatures and the governors
7:26 am
and the politicians are not willing to stand up and say look, if these types of policies that are in the best interest of the adults, these are not putting the interest of children first and we need to do away with them. and so if all of these programs, the ones that you mentioned, tenure, seniority, others, they are putting the interest of adults first and they really need to change. >> let me ask you this, kyle, what happens when students get on facebook or twitter, something like that and bad mouth their teachers? invariably they are disciplined, aren't they? >> that's right. they're suspended, they're -- they go into detention. those sorts of things. but i mean, it's just -- there's almost this -- this parallel universe with government education where the adults can essentially say whatever they want to say, like she said, i mean, just -- she called her students devil's spawn. and infurred she wants them to
7:27 am
drown. those are outrageous statements but a judge actually puts her back in the classroom. >> uh-huh. >> just imagine being able to go to a judge, go to the court system and complain and say i have tenure, i deserve this job. i have a right to this job and a judge agrees with you and puts you back in that position. it's just the bizarreo world in government. >> we understand apparently the board of education will fight the judge's ruling. maybe not so fast. >> kyle olson, always great to speak with you once a week. thanks so much. have a great day. >> thank you very much. >> crazy. all right. straight ahead, did you know a congressman secured $6.3 million of your tax dollars for fixing up a beach near his vacation house? well, stick around because that's just one example of congressional earmarks exposed. >> plus bump, set, spike. it may be winter outside but olympian misty may treanor is heating up our plaza and brian

their 20's can say they have m&m's and this generation likes to lick you and chew you? >> well, i have to tell you that after being introduced in 1941 as the first mars chocolate coated candy, i was sent to ivy league school. i graduated and basically became the chief chocolate officer. and it was my idea to introduce children to the idea of red, yellow, blue, orange and green m&m's. so i am thankful that men and women and children all over the world love m&m's chocolate. >> not everybody, miss m. as you know, you know, legendary story, eddie van halen would stipulate in his contract, in his dressing room, no brown m&m's. that's got to make a candy feel bad. >> well, he didn't know what he was missing. and i'm the ruler of all. so it's his loss. >> take that, eddie. >> so your personality is

three minutes each time. >> to me, the facts here just don't warrant the schools' intrusion into our parenting abilities. >> judges have told us they see a pattern like this, they want to have it reported to them and then legally the system decides what should be done. >> the school says the kids' lateness distracts the other students who are already in class. >> wonder why they're late so much. if it's just by three minutes. set the alarm five minutes earlier. >> could be a long drive. don't know. >> mr. kilmeade, what's happening? >> steve -- one of the best that we've ever had. misty may treanor, now that she married matt treanor with the dodgers will go for gold in 2012 like you and kerry walsh walked away with in 2008. do you still have it? >> i think i still have it and especially i got your training tips today. and that's going to just push us a step further over. >> and my thing is i'm emphasizing more time off. less volleyball. more distractions. >> it's perfect.

7:47 am
marriage. you went back into the 60's and you looked back then a lot of people got married. >> not just a lot. almost anybody. suppose we talk about people ages 30 to 49. prime of life. 1960 didn't make any difference if you were in the working class or the upper middle class, you were married. not 2010. 48% of whites in that age group in the working class are married. 48%. that's a minority. that's the collapse of the central, social institution in a period of 50 years. >> also, you look at religion. >> religionocity is supposed to be the white working class that are strongly religious. if you talk about the upper middle class as a whole, they're a lot more religious than the white working class. mind you, it's been going down for both groups but you still have a solid core in the upper middle class and you don't in the white working class. >> you have these cultural inequalities that are graphic and easy to see but really at
7:48 am
the core, the amount of money people make. >> no, i don't think so. >> no. >> talk a little bit about the financial inequality. >> i think that economic inequality is a red herring because when we talk about the collapse of marriage, when we talk about 1 out of 8 white working class guys not even looking for work before the recession, i'm talking about what happened during the boom years when you have that kind of dropout from the labor force. you're talking about fundamental changes in the community. about the way the community works and you're talking about fundamental sources of human satisfaction. so when you see these cultural changes going on, whether you're making $1,000 or $2,000 more or less than you did a couple of years ago is not nearly as important as the deterioration in your life because of these cultural changes. >> we have a big election coming up this year and a lot of people are talking about class warfare. i know that's not your department. >> no. >> but as an observer of these particular demographics, where are we headed?
7:49 am
why should we be worried? >> if this goes on, united states is not going to be the way the united states has always aspired to be. that is we are going to have a group on top not in terms of money only. we have a group on top in terms of their cultural practices and we have a group on the bottom that's going to be mired there not because there aren't any jobs out there but because behavior have changed in ways that prevent them from moving up. so you've really got a life threatening problem for the american ideal. >> no kidding and you detail in your brand new book called "coming apart, the state of white america 1960-2010." thank you very much for joining us. >> my pleasure. >> it's a bleak picture. >> unfortunately. >> unfortunately. thank you, sir. >> all right, coming up next, the five companies hiring this week. get out a pen and paper. plus oscar winner michael cane is back on the big screen. the really big screen. here's here with a sneak peek at his new imax film next hour.

house. >> gretchen: wow. can't even believe they can have -- pull it together to even speak to the media. powell was the only prime suspect in the disappearance of his wife. now his father, steven, is also being considered a suspect. he's in jail on charges of child pornography. governor rick perry may be down, but not out n. a sit down with shannon breen, he suggested he might consider another run at the white house. >> i haven't left the fight. i just went home and rearmed and reloaded my mags and i'm going to be fighting on a different front. >> gretchen: he spoke last night for the first time since he dropped out of the 2012 campaign. during a dinner honoring president ronald reagan. he faces an uphill battle in his own state in the race for reelection as texas governor. the u.s. sanctions on iran being called psychological warfare? that's from the foreign ministry department in iran, dismissing the sanctions on tehran and saying the move will not stop their nuclear program.

of virginia, that oh, those old dead white guys didn't really know much about how to set autopsy government, that we know better because we see things as they are, very complex and a shifting landscape. so i think his point there is look, i'll get there, i'm just not there yet. i have to work within the confines of this very constricting apparatus that's been foysed upon me. i thought it was revealing and hilarious. >> gretchen: i think it's part 2 of his campaign strategy. the first is the idea of fair share, which we saw in the first part of the interview. and appealing to the center of the country 'cause he said going back to old-fashioned values. and then this part i think is the second part of it, to blame congress. if only they would agree to all my changes, i would have been able to enact hope and change. do you agree with that? >> gretchen, remember when he came into office, it was turning the page from the my way or the highway style of foreign policy, of governance, that this was going to be a new era of bringing parties together and
8:08 am
people together. what we see now is that was a ruse. we started hope and change and now it's -- i don't know how you fit this on a bumper sticker, but it's give me a second term and it will get better. so again, he doesn't deserve any blame. in fact, it's the other guys that are to blame because they don't agree with me. that's kind of an immature way of looking at it, right? you're never going to get everything you want and you have to be persuasive and bring people along to your point of view. that's the thing i think he's very frustrated with. why don't people agree with me? i'm the one. i'm the guy who knows better. >> brian: right. he's frustrated with congress, but not china and russia for blocking the slaughter of innocent people in the united nations. let's talk about green energy. he brought that up. he said, that's part of what he wants to do to continue to push green energy. now we find out that he's got another problem and it's fisker, this car built in finland, now they are cutting back workers in order to be eligible for more
8:09 am
federal dollars. >> yeah, again, the idea that the u.s. taxpayers should subsidize a firm that caters to the 1%, right? this automobile is extremely expensive, and it's really only going to be purchased by people who can afford to buy them and spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on a vehicle. but we as taxpayers are somehow supposed to open up our wallets because barak obama and his cronies believe that this is the only way to move forward with transportation. it's lunacy. money going down a rat hole. we've already spent $200 million. they need now hundreds of millions more to make it up to their $529 million loan guarantee. and i think stop while you're behind. you're in a hole. what did he say? if you're in a hole, don't keep digging? he wants us to keep digging when it comes to green energy. >> brian: get in the back of the car. >> steve: he also said he's getting better as time goes on. hey, what about this? the white house is doubling
8:10 am
down. they have said that going forward this health care mandate that requires all employer, including the catholic colleges and hospitals, they've got to give to their employees birth control, that flies in the face of what the catholic church stands for. now the catholic league is talking about going to war with the white house. president obama one, getting a majority of the catholic vote. going forward, how big a problem is this going to be for the president if you've got 70 million catholics steamed at what he's trying to cram down their throats? >> well, i think it's going to have a profound impact. i think the obama administration is already signaling a reversal on this. i think they're going to do a complete about face. i don't know if kathleen sebelius is going to get thrown under the green biodegradable fuel bus, but she could be. here is what i found at mass on sunday. people from all political backgrounds at mass are now coming together to stop the
8:11 am
oppression which they see as oppression of their church. even if people who are at mass kind of -- they're more liberal socially, they don't like what's being done here. so unwittingly, the white house has brought together all these different factions within the catholic church to say, huh-uh, you're not going to do this to us. so they didn't kick a hornet's nest. they kicked a nest of killer bees. people are very unhappy and even if people who supported obama, i think understand that he took it a step too far, i think they're going to reverse this. >> gretchen: it's not just catholics. i've seen rabbis talk about this or other denominations of christianity because they figure if it can happen there, it might happen somewhere down the line to them. >> gretchen, this applies to all companies and all individuals of conscience and faith who just don't want to pay for insurance that provides sterilization and abortions, in addition to contraception. it applies to all people
8:12 am
offering health care. >> brian: military chaplains have been told not to bring it up. >> of course not. islamaphobia is all we got to worry about. >> gretchen: we got to wrap it up. you got a radio show to do. thanks so much. we'll see you next time. >> good to see you. >> steve: dozen minutes after the top of the hour on this tuesday. republican senator trying to kill the september 11 memorial bill. he says it should be paid for with private funds, but the attack was a very public event. peter johnson, jr., who lives not far from there, on the case coming up next. >> gretchen: take a close look at this picture. yes, that's a child stuck in a toy machine again. how in the world did he get in there? we'll try to figure it out. >> steve: mom! >> brian: why would they ever leave [ male announcer ] drinking a smoothie with no vegetable nutrition?

8:17 am
contributions. new york city has already raised $400 million in private contributions. the government has put up about $250 million. they're now saying we need $20 million a year to run it. so my viewpoint is -- you know, senator coburn has been outspoken before. he spoke out against -- >> brian: and took a lot of heat. >> the fund for -- the bill to binge benefits to first responders and others who were injured as a result of 9-11. he should really back off and say, some things are too important in america. some things don't -- we don't need to fund. >> brian: he says, we have $350 million a year in waste in america, fraud and duplication. can't we find 20 million in that rather than write fresh checks? >> but this is not something that you go and do that. speak out on solyndra. speak out on some of these phonien gee payments. speak out on crony capitalism. speak out on waste that he might
8:18 am
find -- >> brian: not the 9-11 memorial. >> in oklahoma or even new york state. but to say this should become a political beach ball at this point and that the senators from new york, schumer and gillibrand should beg senator coburn for his support because he's the only thing standing in the way of this in the united states senate, that i find to be an error of judgment. >> brian: here is what the chairman of the museum board says. quote, these are very real security costs that shouldn't be borne bay nonprofit. that's a responsibility of not only new york but the chrism we're talking about going forward. >> this is not a private obligation. this is a public obligation. in the end, i think senator coburn will back off and see the light, as he did with regard to the responders bill. meanwhile, i think it's important to talk about it. not all the families are for putting federal money into it. but most people i think in america would be. >> brian: all right. peter, it's not an easy subject,
8:19 am
but we handled it. up with thing i feel bad for you, i don't follow you on twitter yet. but america can. i will follow you as of today. what is it? >> i follow you. >> brian: i know. >> peter johnson, jr. >> i've been following you for a couple of years. >> brian: make sure it's the real me. thanks. coming up straight ahead, government workers accused of fraud, collecting paychecks and unemployment at the same time. guess who is footing the bill? plus, his oscar acceptance speech considered one of the greatest in history. michael caine will join us live right after the break. >> forever. let's

8:23 am
morning. amanda knox wants another charge removed from her record. slander. that according to her lawyers. meanwhile, let's move on. all right? seem to be having a little problem with our teleprompter. 23 minutes before the top of the hour. >> gretchen: i'm looking forward to this. we're about to chat with somebody from across the pond, somebody you know very well. michael caine, the actor who has been in a plethora of films and he has a new one called out called "journey 2, the mysterious island" coming out this friday, february 10. good morning to you, michael caine. >> good morning. >> gretchen: fantastic to see you. i know we have a bit of a delay here. so we'll try and make the best of the differences in satellite. tell us about journey 2. >> "journey 2" is a family film.
8:24 am
it's something i've not made before except once. the reason for that is that i had three grandchildren now and so i decided to make a film that they could go and see, otherwise then they would never see me in a movie 'til they're 18 and they're only three and two at the moment. and also for their mother, i made the muppets christmas carol 30 years ago. so this is one for the grandchildren. also there is another reason i made it. the other reason i wanted to make it is because i've never been in a film in 3 d. this is in 3 d. so i've done films of all kinds everywhere, but i've never done a 3 d film. so there are two wonderful reasons to do this picture and i enjoyed myself. >> steve: michael, not only are you in 3 d, but imax. that means your nose is going to
8:25 am
be 35 feet across. >> yeah. you pray that you don't get a pinch on the end of it -- pimple on the end of it and if you do, you squeeze it and put make-up on it. pimple will be about two feet across. i love imax, though. i was in batman in imax. i'd love to see this movie in imax. i only saw it in 3 d when i saw it. >> gretchen: all right. so you will be seeing this one, right? >> i've seen it. i've seen it. i thought it was great. it's not the normal sort of film that i go see, a family film, you know. i don't have any young children to take, except because i've got my grandchildren now. but it's a bit early for them. but i thought it was very funny and very charming and the special effects are fabulous. >> steve: now, you co-star in this with duane johnson, also known as the rock. at any point off camera, did you
8:26 am
two get into any sort of altercation, anybody wind up with a black eye? >> no. no. i am a very smart guy from a very tough area and i learned early on in life never to pick on anyone who was bigger than me. i only get in fights with people who are smaller than i am and the rock is big. but he's also -- he is very, very nice. but you see, i think people that size can afford to be nice 'cause no one is ever nasty to them. >> steve: if your nickname is the rock, don't pick on him. >> gretchen: he's been on our show before and he's very nice. also in the show, vanessa hudgins and kristen davis. we're looking forward to seeing this. glad to know it's a family film because let's be honest, it's hard for parents to often find a lot of movies to bring everyone to. so we look forward to this called "journey 2".
8:27 am
go ahead. >> i thought it was over for a minute there. it sounded so final. for me, no, thank you. for me, it's one of those things that if you're an adult and you've got to take your children to see a movie, you sit there thinking, i'm going to be bored, it's a children's film. this isn't like that. this is very funny and adventureous and then you've also got the rock singing. >> gretchen: oh, my goodness. >> the rock sings a song in the movie. >> steve: it's a rock opera. >> rock opera. it sure is. i'll tell you something, he's very good. he's great. >> steve: michael caine. >> no one has ever seen the rock sing. >> steve: another reason to get out the 3 d glasses or go to the imax and check it out. michael caine, thank you for joining us from london. thank you. >> gretchen: coming up on our show, last election season he
8:28 am
campaigned for mccain and palin. so who does baseball great curt shilling like in this race? brian is on the case. >> steve: first, we're going to talk to one of those candidates. newt gingrich here next and he says president obama has his own iranian hostage crisis on his hands right now. we'll ask him about that as we roll on live from new york city sweet, nutty crunchy nut.

8:34 am
is by the end of texas, we'll have tied romney for the lead. >> steve: you just mentioned rick santorum. there is a new rasmussen poll that shows rick santorum is actually surging a bit when head to head with the president. he actually ekes out a one-point advantage over him. mitt romney back by 7. you're back by 8. what do you make of this? >> what you had happen is that we've had this huge wave of negative advertising in florida. the process, romney's negative ads both damaged me and damaged him. rick has had a relatively free run. he's been very positive. i think you now have a very interesting three-way race which in a sense bodes ill for romney because his whole strategy was to somehow -- he has so much money and organization that he could drown the rest of us and avoid a long marathon. this is going to be a marathon. i wouldn't be surprised to see it go all the way to, say, california in early june. i think it's going to be a
8:35 am
battle of ideas and a bat am of who has the -- battle of ideas for america. i think that's, to me, that's the right kind of campaign, to get beyond the weight of all the negative ads and get back to what will create job, what will balance the budget, how do you help the poor? have a spring board rather than trap them with a safety net. this could be a very good conversation this spring. >> steve: the negative ads are one thing. but what about some who have suggested, the fight between mitt and newt has gotten really personal. and we just really don't like that so much. >> i think that's right. i think that's what you're seeing reflected in the polls. as you'll remember back through december, i was leading by being totally positive, even when i had no money because people like the idea of a new solution, new approaches. they also like the fact that i worked with reagan in creating 16 million jobs, and on a bipartisan basis, i worked with clinton on creating 11 million jobs in a four-year period while
8:36 am
balancing the budget for four straight years. so i'm delighted to get back to that kind of a positive campaign. i think you'll see over the next few weeks that when people look at positive ideas, that conservatives have a lot greater appeal than does a massachusetts moderate and that as a result as the party looks at it, they'll want somebody who is conservative debating barak obama because we want the gap between the two people. we want solid conservative versus a radical rather than somebody who is in the middle. >> steve: i know you're always looking for real solutions to real problems. there is a real problem in egypt. they effectively placed under house arrest where they can't leave the country 19 americans. you see parallels between what's going on here with our current president and jimmy carter. >> i think the people need to look carefully at the iranian hostage crisis of 1979-1980 and then look at this egyptian government. here is a government where we're giving them a billion
8:37 am
$300 million a year. they're largely equipped with american equipment which can only operate if it has american logistics support, american maintenance, american spare parts, and they now think we're so weak that to appease their radicals, they've locked up 19 americans. i think the president should be taking this as a very serious problem and not handle it the way carter did, which was a case study in weakness. >> steve: mr. speaker, before you go, i saw something on one of the tv blogs that you or some of your strategists actually want more debates between here and march. anything to that? >> i'm always happy to debate. i think on balance it's a great way to talk straight to the american people without editing and without being trapped up into sound bites. but i'm also happy to do what you and i are doing here. i've been on "fox & friends" many, many times and glad to come back any time. >> steve: it's glad to have you live from cincinnati where as you mate it very clear earlier, you will not be singing during this tv appearance.

8:39 am
unemployment. did we mention they weren't employed? city workers in washington, d.c. were put on administrative leave after an investigation found they collected more than $800,000 in unauthorized, unemployment benefits. most of them were unemployed at one point, but when they did get jobs, they never bothered telling the agency that mailed the checks. brian? >> brian: check out this close call. a snowmobiler in wyoming, he can't see the path ahead. it happens right here. probably because it wasn't a path. it was a cliff. >> it wouldn't have been good. >> brian: he slams on the brakes just in time. he stopped just short of the edge. this stunned snowmobiling able to back up and get back down safely.

8:46 am
get it. it's not going to happen because personal interest always supersedes. >> brian: it reminds me of sports. does it remind you of the delegates and strategy? >> no, it doesn't because i think that the establishment has made politics to be or appear to be far more complicated than we the common man can understand and we need them to help us sort it out, which i think is a bunch of crap. >> brian: okay. true. so scott brown running in mass marks do you see yourself getting involved there directly? >> again, i'm 38 studios is my focus and my passion and sucking up all of the time that i can't give to my wife and kids. >> brian: you did not play sports in your sports game b but you had a passion for. this you have your first game? >> i do. it's reckoning, you can check it out at reckoning.com. it launched today. it launches this morning. we had a midnight grand opening last night. it was amazing. we had hundreds of people wind up at different game stops around the country. five years in the making and -- well, politically active and
