5:01 pm
the question is who is the best man for the job? yesterday we were talking about what the conservative base wants on "the five" versus what the republican establishment wants in a candidate. rush limbaugh spent a lot of time talking about our conversation today on his radio show. here is part of it. >> the establishment really care more about the independent vote than they do the base. at this point in time. it may not have always been the case. right now it's the case. they are more worried about losing independents than they are securing the support of the conservative base. the question is how do you get them? this notion that you force them to run away from you by fighting back, that has always been absurd to me. they try to tell us these independents, they don't like confrontation. they don't like all the arguments. the independents want people to get along. they want compromise. >> andrea: he also went on to say i was right in my comments yesterday but called
5:02 pm
me andrea tarantula five times so my mom tried to call in to his show five times to ask why he calls me that? >> dana: i think it's a term of endearment. if you get a nickname, you are in. >> bob: you'd think we'd twit out he said "the five." but we edit it out. >> andrea: does establishment care more about independents? >> eric: we started that, for that reason, because i felt i think he is right. he is right on, spot on target. he says there is a group over here on the right. a group on the left and then there is the base. the moderates and somewhere the establishment plays around that area. agree with him completely. that's why the establishment really can't grasp on rick santorum, because he is too far right. he is too socially conservative for the established crowd. >> andrea: i have to go to dana. your face -- >> dana: i think if people were on the far right had been supportive of rick santorum,
5:03 pm
and really are getting behind his candidacy, they would have been persuaded to do so ten months ago when he first got in race. they have known him for a long time. he was a congressman and senator. had been around washington for a long time. he's got pretty good economic platform. he is a social conservative. he basically didn't campaign anywhere but iowa, raise nod money until recently. all of a sudden, some of the conservatives, that now support him is by default so they don't like the other choices. >> greg: that is it. >> eric: bingo. i agree 100%. it's not that they love santorum so much, they just can't sign on to romney. >> andrea: i saw you nodding while dana was talking. you think it should be a concern of the establishment to get independents, but shouldn't the base be a big concern? it seems like neither candidate is getting the full support of the base because there is still -- ron paul is getting some, newt gingrich is getting some. >> greg: it's still early in the department store. we are the salespeople.
5:04 pm
we want to go home. the customers still haven't made up their mind. we're all like this. can't you just pick something up. i want to go back to the obama singing the blues. that because the most authentic blues i've seen since pat boone covered "hounddog." do we have tape of mick jagger? mick jagger also showed up. let's try to roll some of this tape. the producer just said yes, we had it there. he is. doesn't he look like a disheveled grandmother? isn't it time for mick jagger to retire to the upper east side apartment with 20 cats? i'm sorry, that is barbara billingsley. >> bob: you know how many drug he is did in his life and he is still moving around? give him credit. obama is the best singing credit there has ever been. >> greg: philmore is if greatest singer. >> andrea: he should be a singer. better than president.
5:05 pm
>> dana: that video is great. part of the reason that president obama when he released the new tomorrow kate tax plan today didn't make a statement about it. why screw up the day's worth of running this video. >> bob: can i say one thing, where i disagree with y'all, i don't think santorum was all that well-known by the base. he hasn't been around a long time. he did get introduced with the values thing and that drives a lot of your base. you talk about the establishment. but the people who endorse romney there is a lot of conservative small town mayors. are they establishment? i guess they are. >> eric: wait. i keep talking about the establishment? no, no. you haven't been talking about the establishment? all we talk about the establishment. >> bob: i understand that but the definition of what the establishment is -- >> eric: use your definition. the elite washington, d.c. crowd. that was your definition yesterday. now all of a sudden who is the establishment? that is who it is. firmly in romney camp that every time you know the non-romney candidates starts
5:06 pm
to show life, they go can't beat. go to away. >> greg: garbage. you call ann coulter establishment? she is further establishment as you can get. she wants -- >> eric: ann coulter, some would say -- this is a friend of mine. >> greg: you are going to call her -- >> eric: you picked -- no, i call mitt romney the establishment. >> greg: you are lumping anybody who supports romney as establishment. >> andrea: greg, you just said ann coulter wants to win. that is how you define a romney supporter versus a santorum supporter. there is a group of conservatives that just want to beat president obama. they don't care. then there is another group that says huh-uh, we should not be moderate, we should be conservative. romney will compromise >> greg: i think they do care. >> dana: santorum, remember, he was, he was a contributor, fox news channel for a long time. >> bob: that's true. >> dana: a lot of people on the right did know who he was. >> bob: give limbaugh credit here. if you had a 5% falloff in
5:07 pm
turn-out among conservative republicans across the country, i don't care how many independents -- normally independents will split 52/48, right? you could lose. there is something to be said about having to get your base, very conservative voters to the polls. that's an issue i agree with. you put words in my mouth. >> andrea: a comment that rick santorum made in 2008 taking heat on. some of the base may like it. in 2008 he said satan set his sights on the united states of america. he is attacking great institutions of america using those great vices of pride. he went on to keep mentioning satan. we should point out this was a drudge headline yesterday. santorum went on to clarify it recently like this. >> you guys, this is a question that are not relevant to what we're discussing in america today.
5:08 pm
>> andrea: now this was said that his original remarks had ava maria university at 2008, catholic university, greg. what is wrong with him talking about religion at a college? religious college. >> greg: the democrats want to turn him into the church lady by saying that. i got to tell you, i loved it. for so long we have had scary enemies calls us the great satan, people burning flags, yelling and shouting, doing odd aerobic exercises in the middle of the street. finally now we have someone who calls them the satan. it find it refreshing. >> bob: you know i was aggressive delegation, tehran after the shaw left and before khomeini came back. 400,000 people outside the continental. that's satan! that's satan. >> greg: now we have that. >> bob: give santorum a break on this. he is a very religious guy. and christian and so am i. i consider satan to be real
5:09 pm
and evil. it's okay for him to say that at the church school. >> andrea: at least he didn't back away from it saying it wasn't me. that's why people like him. >> dana: but he said i'll defend everything i say, but at same time he said the drudge headline was a joke and absurd. and in some ways a lot of conservatives -- i have done it, myself -- you try to have it both ways. you want to criticize the main stream media and if the main stream media writes something that is positive about you, you send it around to all of your friends and supports so they can look at. >> andrea: don't you think the main stream media is trying to make him look as a freak like this? i think a lot of the media was trying to make him look -- >> greg: media finds religion laughable. any example they can find that is laughable, they will run with. >> eric: drudge has been pro-romney, has he not? there is no question about that. is there any question that drudge -- >> dana: i have a question about that.
5:10 pm
>> eric: i love you guys. dabs that's what i feel. i'm honest about my feelings. >> eric: i incorrectly attributeed something you said yesterday to you. it was you were quoting -- >> bob: i wanted to say on last wednesday eric gave me a pair of cuff links. >> andrea: that is why you asked me if we were almost done? i thought you were board. >> bob: i wanted to say thank you. >> andrea: speaking of santorum, he will go "on the record" tonight so nuen at 10:00 p.m. eastern. president obama will address gas prices in the speech tomorrow. has the administration been pushing for higher energy cost all along? the evidence right surprise you. our own greg gutfeld will tell you about it next. also, don't forget to e-mail us at thefive@foxnews.com. ♪ ♪

here. >> greg: as gas prices rise faster than kids on christmas morning it makes you wonder was this part of the plan all along? of course, if you say that you sound like a conspiracy freak, but maybe that's what they want you to sound like. after all, remember what president obama's energy secretary steven chu said about conservative fuel. he said, "somehow we have to figure out how to boost the price of gasoline to the level inform europe." europe. again, the greatest company in america adopts it. obama himself might have said under his cap of cap-and-trade system electricity prices would necessarily skyrocket. or maybe i dreamt it. >> under my plan, of a cap-and-trade system, the electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket. >> greg: no, i didn't dream it. i call this starbucks socialism. tackling consumption to make it too damn expensive to
5:16 pm
consume. if you are disgusted by america's gluttony, use pricing to hinder use to reduce consumption. we end up like belgium without fattening waffles. i'm not saying that obama wants gas prices, but he is not that worked up over it. no wonder he put the caribou before me and you, nixing the xl pipeline. every now and then the curtain parts and you peer in a party's true soul. this is that. the hard left hates our success, hates capitalism and won't rest until we have european irrelevance, and now european gas prices, which is the most pointless export from europe since russell brand. >> bob: who the hell is russell brant? >> greg: excellent question. >> bob: let me correct the record. the energy secretary, that question came up during his confirmation hearing. and he addressed it then. he said if you took the entire statement he said, unless we get an energy policy that works we are going to have to get prices as high as they are
5:17 pm
in europe. that frankly was a quote out of context, unusual for you, greg. [ laughter ] >> greg: it wasn't out of context. >> dana: that sentiment, not attribute it to him but the sentiment about wanting to increase prices here so it would decrease demand so you could address global warming, that was liberal position for a long time. >> bob: there are a group of liberals who believe that. that is true. >> dana: it hasn't worked. >> bob: he made the point that was not president obama's position. i think frankly, the xl pipeline, you want to talk about that yet? >> andrea: sure. >> bob: the pipeline, carney said we're not going to show tape of that, right? i don't want to screw up the sequence here. he said that the president was thinking about the pipeline, right? ly guarantee you that they are going to announce support for the pipeline before the election a slightly altered route. you have watch. >> eric: they should. hopefully they will, because number one it will probably drop fuel prices, oil prices, gasoline prices.
5:18 pm
number two, create jobs. two areas where are all obama's achilles heel. left leg the jobs and right leg being gas prices. that would be great. hopefully he doesn't take credit for xl pipeline. the right pushed him. >> bob: he will make the announcement and said eric bolling got on him so hard i finally decided to go along with it. on gas price thing, you're an expert, i understand that. but what is going on in iran over which we have very little control and syria we should talk about more frankly is causing this the price of gas to go up. >> eric: no, no. why would it? >> bob: in iran -- >> eric: doesn't make the natural gas prices go up. we use natural gas for energy here. we have crude oil, too. >> andrea: the president has been openly hostile to fossil fuels. his tax plan released goes
5:19 pm
after the oil companies. if you foster oil companies and try to take away tax breaks it's passed to the consumer. older folks and myself included have retirement and mutual funds in oil companies >> bob: first, your're not that old. secondly, we better start to use fossil fuel because we're going to run out. >> greg: can i run the carney tape? >> bob: you did have it? i'm sorry. g that's all right. >> the president didn't turn down the keystone process. there is a process in place with long precedent run out of the state department because of the pipeline crossing international boundary that required time for review after the alternate route was deemed necessary. >> greg: the route goes through my apartment. if he didn't kill the pipeline why not start instruction tomorrow? >> dana: unfortunately for them in trying the new argument he didn't kill the pipeline, the story has
5:20 pm
already been written on that. everybody believes he did. he made a statement i'm not moving forward with this. if they want to do it tomorrow, they could. a new route is proposeddy. go through your apartment. governor of nebraska is a problem and it was a route offered by the congressional republicans in conjunction with nebraska governor. they could do it tomorrow if they wanted to. >> bob: our assumption that everybody in america knows about the pipeline -- he announces the pipeline, this story will be forgotten. >> greg: a republican point to hammer. big nail to hammer. >> eric: quickly, i know we will run out of time. i had a business of distributing gas, buying gasoline, bring it in from overseas, selling it. you know that there are reformulated gas prices and oxygennated blends, detergent regulation, specific vapor pressure blends, summer blends, east coast blends,
5:21 pm
west coast blends. i have a way -- i want to do it here because i want you to attribute it to me. >> bob: i thought you were speculating. >> eric: no. i did both. distribution company as well. gasoline will drop by $1, $1 per gallon with one signature by obama. all he has to do is say one blend, gas drops. it doesn't matter if you're chicago, west coast or east coast. all year round. give at it shot. it hasn't hurt. environmentalists have to take a deep breath and say for now it's more important to get the gas prices down. >> bob: there is something to be said about that. they have a blend -- remember the upper midwest and mixed it with stuff and didn't work. they backed off of that and it worked all right. we agreed on something. >> andrea: he is still pushing the green energy. >> dana: i guarantee you they use the line, every president uses it. we have didn't get in this problem overnight, we're not
5:22 pm
going to solve it over night. no magic wand no, silver bullet. >> greg: besides, solyndra has our back. it's okay. we're worried about nothing. coming up, are pro-lifers evil bigots? that's a claim a planned parenthood rep is making. if you leave now i won't bake you my special lemon squares. it make them with real le john sqeeje. ♪ ♪ [ rosa ] i'm rosa and i quit smoking with chantix.

which would prevent abortions after 20 weeks. person from planned parenthood made a statement accusing republicans of fairly severe things. we are going to listen to him and explain what he meant. >> if you look at the record of the proponent of the bill and others who support it, suddenly they're concerned about black children frankly prior to birth but care less once they arrive. that is hypocrisy that is exposed. it's something that got free reign but it needs to stop >> bob: greg, you're outraged i take it. >> greg: this guy is a bozo. he is confusing opportunity for life with a promise of dependency. this is an old clicheed argument, pro-life doesn't mean you have to provide a life from cradle to grave services for somebody who is
5:28 pm

5:31 pm
the boehner not withstanding the majority of republicans voting against increasing head start. george bush was good about it. >> dana: he wanted to reform the program so it worked better because there is ton of waste, fraud and abuse in head start program. it's not working if you look at the education system. >> greg: in china, thanks to the one child per family law, millions upon millions of female babies have been killed. they are having a lop-sided majority here. if i point that out, does that mean i am now responsible and i must support a chinese woman from craid to grave because i think it's awful? >> bob: it would be good. anything to say here? >> eric: i'd like to point out planned parenthood, $360 million in funding in 2009, the last number we had. if that is what they are all about, a great -- >> andrea: look at all the religious organizations like let's take the catholic church. if they have to break this mandate against the obama administration, for birth control they have to pay over
