tv   The O Reilly Factor  FOX News  April 5, 2012 8:00pm-9:00pm EDT

8:00 pm
>> bill: "the o'reilly factor" is on. tonight. >> the republic party is gay bashing, muslim bashing, latino bashing. >> bill: wild guy howard dean has made an oracle out of me. his attacks on republicans are over the top and we pricketted it would happen. >> young people are just not going to vote for romney. >> unelected group of people would somehow overturn a duly constituted and passed law. i'm pretty confident that this court will recognize that and not take that step. >> bill: president obama's criticisms of the supreme court have teed off a bunch of federal judges and the justice department was ordered to explain. megyn kelly will tell us what happened today. >> there will be justice for trayvon martin. >> bill: and an african american scholar says al sharpton is full of bologna that black teenagers are not afraid of whites they are afraid of other black teenagers. we have a controversial discussion.
8:01 pm
caution, you are about to enter the no spin zone, the factor begins right now. captions by closed captioning services >> bill: hi, i'm bill o'reilly. thanks for watching us tonight. howard dean on the attack. that is the subject of this evening's talking points memo. just call me miss clio psychic to the stars. just minutes after i told you last night that the democratic party's strategy to reelect president obama will be to attack mitt romney and the republic party, press toe, a few minutes later howard dean shows up on msnbc and says this: >> the republic party is latino bashing, immigrant bashing, women bashing every day. and so the -- young people are not going to vote for romney because they think insurance should pay for birth control.
8:02 pm
their friends are gay, muslim, latino and so forth and so on. they are sick of this stuff. >> bill: i want to thank governor dean more making me an oracle. it was nice of him to do it. what we have here is the democrats trying to put together a coalition of the aggrieved. millions of americans who feel they're not getting what they deserve. and, of course, president obama is here to help them. now, that analysis is not a slap at the president. unlike some of you, i don't think he is a bad guy. but i do think he is misguided fiskly and because of that is doing damage to the country's economic infrastructure. but i don't see him as dr. evil. in fact, i have never ever seen mr. obama with a cat. >> as you know, every i do book kel deed that i have hatched has been thwarted by austin powers. >> now, seriously here is how the campaign is going to unfold. the coalition of the aggrieved will be stoked up by guys bike howard dean and a variety of other liberal bomb throwers. they will put forth that
8:03 pm
america is not a fair country and that the only person who can make it fair is president obama. the bomb throwers will slime mitt romney in every way possible. on the other side, conservatives and republicans will make a mistake if they sink into that swamp. at this point, everybody knows president obama. you don't have to demonize the man. you either like him or you don't. everybody does not know how much danger there is in uncontrolled federal spending. that is what mitt romney and the republicans have to make crystal clear. how a 16 trillion-dollar debt that continues to rise will effect every american. if they can get that point across, everybody will be aggrieved. not just a few selected minorities. so there you have it right from the mouth of an oracle. and that's the memo. now for the top story tonight judge jerry smith member of the fifth circuit of appeals in texas has ordered the justice department to submit a three page document explaining president obama's slight of the supreme court. >> i'm confident that the
8:04 pm
supreme court will not take what would be an unprecedented, extraordinary step of overturning a law that was passed by a strong majority of a democratically elected congress. >> bill: well, the justice department did submit the document today and here now to explain it attorney and fox news anchor megyn kelly who is a former supreme court reporter. what's the headline of the document. >> department of justice in a letter signed by eric holder himself has acknowledged in fact the federal courts including the supreme court have the ability to declare a law unconstitutional if, in fact, that is what they conclude. >> bill: this was all guerrilla theater then. everybody knew they were going to do that everybody knew that eric holder was going to uphold the constitution. the judge in texas knew it he just wanted to embarrass the president, right? >> it was an extraordinary move by the fifth circuit of appeals. i was shocked to see them do it. >> bill: just to embarrass the president. >> i'm not going to get into motives.
8:05 pm
>> bill: process of elimination what other motive would there have been. >> he is the head of the executive branch. the executive branch is front of them now litigating a case about the president's health care law. if their bogs is going to be this court doesn't have the jurisdiction to review that law, maybe those federal judges want to hear about it. >> bill: okay. so i still think it was theater because they knew they were going to have a come back that said hey, you guys, don't get mad because we know you have the right to do it? >> one of the possibilities is they had had it. because i do think some of these federal court judges based on what i hear feel a little beat up by president obama. >> bill: i don't think there is any doubt about it. >> this judge may have had enough of that. >> bill: well, the only interesting part of this document, i mean your eyes will glaze over is, number three, quote: while duly recognizing the court's authority tone gauge in judicial review, the executive branch, that's president obama, has often urged courts to respect the legislative judgments of congress. you know, he he is basically saying look, we got it done. don't mess it up. that's what he is saying, right? >> yes. not unusual for the president to want the supreme court to
8:06 pm
uphold a law that he worked hard to get passed. >> bill: difference between wanting and lobbying. >> that's right. >> bill: is he lobbying them. >> that's right. eric holder is splitting those hairs. this document as you would expect him to do is the president's advocate heading up the attorney general's office. i do think that the president got himself in some trouble on monday. >> bill: no doubt about it? >> trying to dial it back ever since. >> bill: he can't. >> this is what he is trying to say this is what i meant. any thinking person would have understood in is what i meant. the problem weighing in on the case even if you weigh in on the way he tried to couch the next day, right? he tried to change it a little. there are some issues with commenting on a pending supreme court case when you are the president of the united states. and you have had top republicans -- mitch mcconnell of the senate came out and suggested he tried to intimidate justices. that's a stretch. >> bill: of course is he going to say that. all right. now, you covered the court. i don't know much about it. i was privileged to talk to
8:07 pm
justice kennedy one time. actually he invited me in the office. we had a nice chat. >> would you love to talk to him right now? he is the guy. >> bill: he wouldn't tell me anything. >> true. >> bill: but these guys, they read the papers, they know. they watch the factor. they know what's going on. they know what president obama did. >> right. >> bill: some of them are going to be just like the judges in texas going, you know what? that's out of line. that's going to hurt the president's cause subliminally. >> i don't think so. i don't think the judges give a fig that president obama thinks it would be unprecedented or activists for them to strike down the law. >> bill: if somebody annoys you. >> i don't think -- i don't think they would be shocked to think he thinks they should uphold them. solicitor general who argued the case in court. >> bill: isn't it about respect? i put forth that human beings want to be respected. and if somebody disrespects you, even in a round about way, all right, you may not react to it, but it's right
8:08 pm
there in your mind. and if it comes down to just, you know, with a guy like kennedy. >> which it's not going to. they have their constitutional philosophies intact. the supreme court, they are very controversial. they know that. but these are big boys and girls. they've been around the block. i don't think they are going to be swayed by what president obama says. they're not going to be angry. look what happened during citizens united in the state of the union when the president with them sitting steps away unable it to respond when he ripped on them then. you could tell that they were irritated. justice leith -- alito irritated. right when the justices are sitting right there. >> bill: about what? >> about campaign finance. >> bill: yeah. you shouldn't have done it. >> justice alito said no in response to the president's characterization. >> bill: the camera went on him. >> that's the biggest outcry, outburst we have ever seen from a supreme court. >> overturn of obama care, right? >> i said it's very very tough to say. if you are going it force me i
8:09 pm
would say the way the argument went 5-4 in favor of striking it down. >> bill: just the fact it's 5-4 because you know the liberal justices are going to go along with president obama no matter what he does. that's a little bit disturbing. can you make the same argument. >> it's not they are going to go along with president obama. >> bill: they were trying to help him in the hearing. >> philosophy that is adheernt to what he believes. >> bill: that the constitution doesn't really matter. >> not going to rule and the conservative justice has a different philosophy. >> bill: um-huh. but the philosophy of all the judges is supposed to be to uphold the original intent of the constitution which was not to force anybody to buy anything. >> this is a real issue in today's day and age. i will take you up on this. you do the same thing that president obama did on monday. and you're both wrong to do it. >> bill: what did i do. >> you like to rip on the supreme court justices as somehow out of line. you claim you are the second most powerful man in the country. >> bill: that's a misquote, kelly. you are taking that out of context. [ laughter ] >> i'm just saying. the supreme court is the last
8:10 pm
standing body of government right now that has somewhat fair approval ratings. >> bill: somewhat. >> we should keep it that way. somewhat binds us as the nation a rule of law. >> bill: if ruth bader ginsburg is in charge i have to move. >> african-american pundits says black men don't have to fear white men they have to fear other black men. controversial report moments away.

♪ >> bill: writing in the "wall street journal" african-american journalist shelby steele says if trayvon martin was a victim of white racism hard to conceive since the shooter is apparently hispanic. his murder would be an anomaly. not a commonplace. mark teenagers today are afraid of other black teenagers, not whites. unquote. 90% of black homicide victims are killed by black offenders. and in all violent crimes, when the offender is black, his victims are also black, a whopping 65% of the time. so steele goes on to criticize al sharpton and jesse jackson
8:14 pm
for ignoring the real problem black based crime. where has mr. steele gone wrong, doctor. >> is he wrong all over the place. the first thing is he wrong about is the premise of his argument which is that black people and black civil rights leaders were outraged martin was killed by nonblack person and hypocrisy here. the truth is we are not outraged by trayvon was killed by nonblack person there was no justice. his shooter was allowed to go home. morgue. the whole case is a mess. lack of justice. we don't care what race the shooter is. i don't care what race the shooter is the second thing that is he wrong about is somehow this idea that we can't talk about trayvon martin injustice coming from the criminal justice system because of black-on-black violence. yes, black-on-black violence is a real issue. no black leader worth his or her assault that doesn't care about black on black violence and doesn't address it. >> bill: don't see the same amount of intensity of
8:15 pm
shootings in children, one in detroit one in chicago over the last couple of weeks and there hasn't been arrest made in either case. you don't see the same amount of intensity that you do see in the trayvon martin case plus al sharpton and jesse jackson obviously are civil rights guys and they get involved when they perceive there is a civil rights problem here. now, i take your point -- >> -- you answered your own question. >> bill: i take your point and i think it's a legitimate point that perhaps if zimmerman had been african-american that sharpton and jackson would bring the same amount of intensity to the case. perhaps. it would be unusual. i think you would have to admit that it would be unusual. >> you know why it would be unusual, bill? because when black people are accused of shooting people? they get arrested. they get charged. they don't get to watch seinfeld that night. >> bill: not really. >> that's usually the case, bill. i think that's the issue here. this is such an unusual case. that's why we are getting so muched me attention. the other thing is i have been with reverend sharpton.
8:16 pm
i have been with reverend jackson in numerous cities where we have talked about the problem with black-on-black violence. the problem with black-on-black crime. one time i went to a jail with jesse jackson and a room full of black guys all there for drug offenses. he said why don't you help me shut this prison down. he said what do we do? he said don't come back no more. he didn't talk about the white man and unequal drug. he said you be responsible. that's the key. black leaders do talk about responsibility. right now there is a dead kid whose family isn't getting justice and has nothing to do with black-on-black violence. >> bill: in your parkway he is not getting justice. the justice system is on the case ands you know is flicked by the stand your ground law which we went over last night that very responsible way. >> it is. >> bill: it's a very difficult case. i don't know if you are going to throw around he didn't get justice because in your eyes the only justice is the arrest and conviction of george zimmerman. that's -- >> -- no, no; that's not true. justice for me would have been a thorough investigation. >> bill: that's what they are doing, doctor. that's what they're doing. >> that is true, anchor.
8:17 pm
the reason they are doing that now is because we put so much pressure. >> bill: maybe, maybe. >> maybe, bill. >> bill: me, i'm going to be in that we then. i wanted it and i talked from the very beginning. i don't think it's we a certain segment of the population. let's get on to the fear quosht as shelby scott talked about. you basically have in chicago and we have a report coming up right behind with you jesse watters black teenagers in chicago fear other black teenagers in gangs. that's who -- whose doing the murders. you can't sit there and tell me they don't fear them. the good black kids fear the bad black kids. >> well, i don't know if i make distinction between good and bad black people. >> bill: wait wait wait. the bad black people are the ones that murder, okay? so if you don't have it clear, now you do. so the good black kids. >> i don't make the same distinction do you. >> bill: good black kids fear the killers who are running
8:18 pm
wild in chicago. that's a fact. there are no white gangs running wild in chicago. that's not who is doing the homicides. >> okay. well, two things. i don't know anyone who doesn't fear killers irrespective of what race they are. number two, there are white gangs in chicago. there are white gangs. >> bill: no. there aren't any white gangs epidemic of violence now. not that we know of. >> here's the point here, bill. yes, black-on-black violence is certainly an issue. all citizens do fear killers. most people do have fear of gangs. the issue of framing this as a black-on-black crime epidemic as if there is something unusual about the fact that most black people are killed by other black people is a little bit off. most white people are killed by other white people. most latinos are killed by other latinos. usually people who look like them and come from their neighborhood. that's also a justice department fact. >> bill: the problem is that the murder rate among african-americans in america in the united states is so much higher than the population base and so much higher than latino and whites. it's a shocking statistic. >> and that's why we're all
8:19 pm
fighting to fix it with the same intensity that we're fighting to get justice for trayvon martin because all life is valuable. bill. >> bill: okay, doctor. we always appreciate the debate. thank you. violent crime in chicago as i said out of control. we sent jesse watters to the windy city to find out what's going on. later, shocking new study about teenage drinking and drug abuse. the warriors have the grizzly stats. we're coming right back. ♪

8:26 pm
>> most of the politicians are from chicago just like fray von -- trayvon martin case, bobby rush on the house floor in a hoody when people are dying in this district. >> just because someone wear as hoody does not make them a hoodlum. >> i think that's kind of hypocritical. that's my honest opinion. >> bill: all right. a couple things rahm emanuel the mayor he didn't want to talk to you right? he didn't want to answer questions. >> no. >> bill: no women in that piece. >> they were afraid to talk to me at all. they are afraid to go across the street with grocery. they are ducking during the day. >> bill: what are these gangs fighting about? do they sell narcotics? are they drug gangs? >> mostly drug gangs and fighting over smaller and smaller scraps because the economy is bad. white people aren't buying as many drugs now. so the profits are down. so they're trying to fight over turf, property and respect. >> bill: most of the fighting and murders are i want to be on this block and i want you
