president put in place didn't make america create more jobs. as a matter of fact, he it harder for america to create more jobs? >> the president was also in the buckeye state today as part of a taxpayer-funded whining tour, deliver a quote, major economic speech. but as usual, there were no new ideas on how to jump start the economy. he was going with the same standby tactic, with fear, saying that the republican budget would harm families. >> 10 million college students would lose $1,000 each on financial aid. 200,000 children would lose the chance to get an early education in the head-start program. there would be 1600 fewer medical research grants for things like alzheimer's and cancer and aids. not only does their plan eliminate health insurance for 33 million americans with the affordable care act -- according to the independent kaiser family

foundation twould also take away coverage from another 19 million americans who rely on medicaid, including millions of nursing home patients and families with children with autism and other disabilities. >> sean: don't forget, mr. president, we want dirty air and dirty water. joining me with reaction to the speech is the co-host of "the five," she deals with bob beckel five days a week kimberly guilfoyle and alexis mcgill-johnson. this is how i interpret it, if i am wrong, correct me. the president's saying that republicans, if elected, don't care about students, they don't care about head start for young children, they don't care about research for cancer, aids and alzheimer's and they don't care about health insurance for people and nursing home patients and children with autism. am i wrong in that interpretation? >> no. not if you look at the ryan budget plans to do. and romney certainly endorse the budget. what the president is trying to do in his speech is make a great

argument for the role of government in creating jobs and public sector clearly creates private sector. >> sean: how come we have a million fewer jobs than when he took office? >> here's the tough problem for barack obama. he can't run on the record. before, it was the mystery of barack obama and kind of the way he was, you know, he was alluring to the american people. but now his numbers are bad. his math doesn't add up and you are looking at americans suffering 39% drop in personal weth for the average american, due to the drop of housing value it's. >> sean: this is very important. 39% what have they have saved throughout their lifetime -- >> it happened in 2007 and 2008, under the policies that bush created. >> sean: let's -- let's go to life under obama. okay? this is since he has become president of the united states. we have a $15.7 trillion debt, $5.1 trillion in new national

debt added since obama has been president. we have 23.2 million underemployed. and 63 pillion americans falling into poverty. that's since he has been president. he said the following -- i gallon to this cut. he said, if i don't get this done in three years, it's a one-term proposition. mitt romney came out with a brand-new ad on this. let's roll it. >> i will be held accountable. you know, vifour years. if i don't have this done in 3 years, then there is going to be a one-term proposition. >> the democrats are saying something like this -- don't go back in reverse, give us two more years, if it doesn't work, you can vote us all out then in two more years. >> of course the economy is not where it needs to be. of course, we have a lot more work to do. everybody knows that. >> sean: if this isn't done in 3

years, it's a one-term proposition. >> i think the voters will be making a decision on the economy, without question. but i think what they will be thinking about is whether or not the failed policies, the trickle-down policies that the g.o.p. and mitt romney are going to put forth are going to be worth their investment. i think-- here's a question i have forue is it worth borrowing 40 cents of every dollar to pay for programs that will pay us to bankruptcy. >> no. >> i think it is. >> sean: you think it's worth it? >> i think we have to borrow to invest-- borrow more to invest -- >> getting americans back-- $5 trillion in new obama debt, which he said was unpatriotic. >> but he has an indefensible position. why reward abject failure with americans in a far worse position. take the man for his word. if he wasn't able to make an improvement and transform america, i think america's had enough. look at job approval rating, boom.

-- let's look at a poll that came out on the economy. who do voters trust on the economy more? now, this is a sitting president. he has had 3 1/2 years. there you have it, 8-point advantage. if the election's on the economy, does that tell that you mitt romney will be the next president of the united states? >> absolutely not. >> sean: that doesn't sell you? >> absolutely not. voters are not going to trust romney-- what don't you trust him? >> this is a man who said let detroit go bankrupt. this is a man who said -- [overlapping dialogue] >> firefighters-- he said let them go through bankruptcy. >> this is a know what who has consistently through his time at bain and his time as governor has not done anything -- >> bankruptcy is different. it's a restructuring. so it won't pour more money after bad money. if you look at poll numbers and the focus group, they are consistent in terms whoof americans trowft improve the economy, get jobs back on the board.

>> the numbers -- [overlapping dialogue] >> sean: based on the statistics i put on the screen, how big a gap was it when the president said, the private sector's doing fine. >> yeah. where has he been? i mean, what planet is he on? let alone what country is he running? it's out of touch. it backfired. >> record high. 93% of the corporate profits accrued to the benefit of 1%. >> sean: you think we are better off than we were 4 years ago. you think we are better off with $5 trillion in debt. >> i think that wealthy americans are doing quite well. we need to invest more in opportunities-- investment is raise taxes. you want to raise taxes. how much of every dollar should any american, regardless of income, how much is the maximum that the government should take take. >> the marginal tax rate under clinton was 36%, incredible

growth, incredible growth during that time. >> sean: i am saying state, local, federal, sales, popularity taxes, how much of every dollar at the end of the payment -- >> i am saying we should get back to where we were under clinton, where there was incredible growth and investment and public infrastructure-- and under reagan, it was 28%. >> we lost it under george bush, where he gave the tax breaks to the wealthy? >> george bush gave tax cuts to every american. >> people who benefitted more significantly, we know that-- they make more money. but the family of four making $50,000 a year -- >> obama is arguing today is that, you know, again, we go back to what kind of country do we want to live in-- a socialist utopia. >> where we have a social contract, where we are taking care of those who are less fortunate. >> we would take clinton back at this point, who is kidding who. president obam should listen to clinton a little bit more and he

might not be in such a bad position. you can believe it? >> sean: i never thought i would agree with that. >> that's how bad it is. it could be really good. >> sean: kimberly got a new motorcycle, by the way. she has a motorcycle jacket on. >> i am heading for the hills. i'm scared. >> sean: thank you for being with us. you don't want to miss this. we are going to lay out all the reasons why congress is calling for eric holder's resignation. by the way, tune in tomorrow night, a special edition, live audience edition of "hannity" as we examine the scandals that are now engulfing the obama white house, studio audience will join us, including national security expert, political strategists, don't miss it tomorrow night.

>> sean: the current standoff between congress and the department of justice over the stonewalling in the fast & furious scandal comes as no surprise to those of us who have been paying very close attention to the controversial tenure of the attorney general of the united states. >> work to restore the credibility of a department badly shakeeb by allegations of improper political interference. law enforcement decisions and personal actions must be untainted by partisanship. >> sean: from the moment he uttered those word to this day, eric holder's tenure -- he was

given his first major assignment in washington by another president, whose administration was paralyzed by scandal. he became the deputy attorney general of the united states. and in the final hours of the clinton administration was tasked with overseeing the mountain of presidential pardons and he was a staunch advocate for a number of wildly controversial pardons, including granting clemency to 16 members ever a violent puerto rico terror network, the faln, an organization responsible for multiple bombings inside the united states. holder also play aid vital role in the pardoning of billionaire financier, mark rich, a man who fled the country before he was indicted on scores of tax fraud charges. rich, who appear on the fbi's most wanted list for many years, was accused of making secret oil deals with the ayatollah during

the hostage crisis. and his wife donated to the clinton family and now rich is a free man. then holder's reputation deteriorated further. in 2004, he represented chikitta, after the company admitted it supported a terrorist organization. these are many of the accolades barack obama was looking for in his attorney general. >> the attorney general serves the american people. i have every expectation that eric will protect our people,p -- uphold the public trust and adhere to our constitution. >> sean: since returning to the justice department in 2009, holder has been at the center of the administration's most embarrassing moments and troubling scandals. among his questionable actions, deciding to try the 9/11 terror masterminds, a block away from ground zero, declassifying top-secret documents about the

ci'sa's enhanced interrogation program. dropping voter intimidation charges against the new black panther party after their actions were caught on tape by fox news, criticizing arizona's immigration law without taking the time to read the 10-page bill first. >> i think you are missing the fact that this is a very big deal. >> sean: the man who vowed to restore the credibility of the justice department is facing contempt of congress charges and calls to step down. >> you violated the public trust in my view. you leave me nootomyive but to join those who call upon to you resign your office. >> sean: joining me with reaction, liz cheney and from the american center for law and justice, jay secullo. i know we are talking built attorney general, the contempt before congress issue is coming up, calls for his firing. but i thought it was important to put this in perspective and lay it out for people. when you see this in its entirety, what's your reaction? >> you know, i think that it's

clear at this point, sean, that even in an administration which has had a very low bar in terms of interpretation of the law and the constitution, attorney general holder hasn't even managed to clear that hurdle. you know, your piece laid it out, but one more thing i would point out, this attorney general has spent more time trying to figure out how to investigate and prosecute potentially, cia officials for programs that they participated in that kept us safe after 9/11 than he has spent trying to establish a way to interrogate terrorists, something that we don't have the ability to do now 3 years after they stopped the enhanced interrogation program. on top of thatul all of that, you showed the clip of senator cornyn, over the last year, we have had the attorney general, apparently mislead the congress about the fast & furious program, which you know, people should never forget, resulted in the death of an american law enforcement official, somebody who died at the hands of the mexican cartels--

brian terry. >> exactly. i think what we have is a situation in which the attorney general clearly, as senator cornyn laid out, has lost the public trust. for someone who is supposed to be one of the most senior people giving the president legal advice, it is time to get a new lawyer. >> sean: jay, when dianne feinstein on the issue of the security leaks says that american lives have been jeopardized as a result of this, one has to question the decision-making behind this. i want to get your reaction to it. is this the future, as a result of this? and when you look at the people -- he's unwilling to appoint a special prosecutor. what do you think is going on here. the person who recommended to investigate is a big obama donor. >> sure. it's interesting, you said this in your piece. you talk about the idea that, you know, eric holder comes in and says the politics of the department of justice need to be removed and it needs to be overwith and this is the most political attorney general we have seen in our lifetime. let's take a look at what he has

done, what he continues to do. you mentioned the situation with the security leaks, which a democratic member of the united states senate said is the most serious national security risk we have had in decades and he ax points one of obam's large donors to investigate this. that's not an investigation. have you to put this into context, a follow-up of what has taken place here. the department of justice -- i have a lot of respect for the department of justice. vitaught u.s. attorneys on prosecution issues! here's's the real problemue have the department of justice, lead by an attorney general who, files a letter with the united states senate, which is not only incorrect as a matter of law, but incorrect factually. it takes them seven months to remove the letter f. a citizen did that to the united states senate under oath, they would be indicted. what happens here? oops, we made a mistake. the american people are not stupid. this is politics at its worst for a department that is not

supposed to be political. >> sean: let me ask liz this question, when you think of the leak, where obama every tuesday would sign off on the kill list that they talk about, cyber warfare, joint operations with iran and the nuclear enrich. program with the israelis. do you have any doubt that this had to come from the white house? after all, the meetings took place in the white house? >> have you to read david sanger's piece, where he said people in the national security council meetings and now these programs, the cyber war program in particular was likely so highly classified that there were very few people in those meetings. so i think you have to assume, it came from very senior people. i think have you to question -- and this is why an independent investigation is so important -- you have to ask the question: did the president of the united states authorize people on his staff to brief the new york times about this program? and when you are talking about, you know, somebody who was a

volunteer in the obama campaign, somebody who was a huge contributor to the obama campaign, you know, the american people have got to be wondering, is there nobody at the justice department who wasn't an active participant in the obama campaign? >> sean: how in the future would we recruit spies? on the issue of fast & furious, i don't know what's worse, the 18 months they obstructed the investigation by congress and we have, you know, co-equal branches of government and oversight is a big part of this tor the fact they that are trying to make a last-minute deal. okay, we will give it to you now. >> well, i think, you know, the reality is that this is a constitutional crisis, as the attorney general himself said, of his own making. the real tragedy is the american people suffered and as liz said, we have a dead border patrol agent, with no answers, killed at the hands of our own weapons. this is a last-minute ploy on the department of justice, eric holder, in particular, to

circumvent a very bad week. senator grassley wanting to see all the documents. they created this mess, they are going to have a tough time getting out of it. >> sean: last question, "yes" or "no," does eric holder survive? >> i don't see how he dis. i think he has lost confidence. senator cornyn himself served on the texas supreme court, somebody who is a tremendously well-respected, senior, experienced senator, for him to call for resignation -- >> absolutely. >> sean: do you agree? >> absolutely. time for the attorney general to step aside. i think he will, maybe toward the end of the term here. but i think he has to step aside. i think that senator cornyn was right. >> sean: thank you for being here. also coming up, we investigate the media, brent bozel is back with media mash. and governor palin's daughter, drops by to talk about politics, her brand-new tv show. we have an amazing, great, great, great american panel and much more, coming up, straight ahead.

happening. this is what's happening. there is a lot of people getting hurt. this is going too far. that's my opinion. you can take it for what it's worth. don't attack advertisers. it's too hard a living in the spoken word. >> sean: seems to agree with me, right? but viother tape. in the middle of the sandra fluke controversy, you were out in front on that issue. at the time, let's see how ed was covering the boycott, the advertiser boycott of rush limbaugh. >> jerry, ?ent isn't it going to take more than a web site, isn't it going to take the social media being organized to go after the local stations that carry rush, if women in the country want to change and move the broadcasting off to the side, what do you think? >> if there is a time to get him off the air, this is the push. if women in this country are serious about what they hear on the free airwaves of america, there is no better time. this is a wake-up call to every radio talkener america about what is ahead in the landscape and what's acceptable.

racism and sexism are not acceptable. all of these advertisers leaving rush limbaugh are make egg very big statement. >> sean: between that point, all of a sudden, conservatives,s as you know, because you were covering this, they just happened to find these little tapes on him before he made the call to media matters and this is ed. >> you damn right dick cheney's heart's a political football. we ought to rip it out, kick it around and stuff it back in him. i am glad he didn't tip over, he is the new poster child for health care in this country. he's an enemy of the country from my opinion, dick cheney is. lord, take him to the promise land, will you? i don't want him to go to hell. i want him to get the hell out of here. do you know what they are talking about? she's a talk slut. >> sean: i mean, what do you make of the timeline?

one thing last night with greta, she had on a guest, $400 billion every year, waste, fraud and abuse. if you take all the bush tax cuts, like us four that, generates $40 billion. 1/10 of the waste fraud and abuse. >> sean: today, we spend $3 billion a year on food stamps, we are nearly $100 billion. >> he could use some food stamps -- look at this. >> sean: he could use a meal. seriously, it's gone up dramatically under obama. it costs $40 grand to get into this thing. almost all of these events are costing $30,000 a head, all of these big money people. how does he justify, you know, being the man of the people, the lifestyle he's living? >> i think in '08, he road the wave of celebrity, he's this young, new, untested entity, nobody knew what he stood for, but he had hollywood appeal.

but i think that americans are tired of that, it's empty and soleless. >> sean: couple that with saying that the public sector is doing fine.
