5:00 pm
socialists gave us the ugo. >> are you surprised, bob, business owners oppose president barack obama? >> it's shocking. it's kept me up all night long. first of all, this was -- most of this was prehis comments that you all have takennen out of context. he's always been near the bottom with business owners and by definition, it doesn't surprise me. last time they were second to the bottom. the bottom of the fishermen and lumberjacks. i'm suspicious of breaking these out by job group but it's not surprising. >> his approval is the lowest among democratic cohosts. >> that's funny. >> it's like when the problem with the american economy is about confidence, this is is. it's the business owners.
5:01 pm
if they're not happy, we're screwed. >> how are we supposed to hire. >> an excellent monologue, not only has the government not created those inventions, the government's broke. if you're waiting for them who help, they have no money. the money has run out. i think from day one, the president's calculus has been grow the government, give more handouts then cross your fingers and hope on election day more people will getting a check that will come to the polls, more than the small business owners. >> it's amazing, because this is something people were waiting for mitt romney to talk about and obama gave it to them. when they start having debates in october this is it. >> do me a favor. take the two shot. >> are we talking about -- >> wake up. >> first things first, this is a daily tracking poll so you can't say it was taken before obama -- >> it's a quarter.
5:02 pm
>> daily tracking. >> business owners, 59% disprove of the way he's handling his job, president obama. farming, 57% disprove. transportation workers, 55%. it goes on and on. just about nobody is below 50% disapproval of. >> that's not exactly right. first of all next time you take a shot at me in my ribs, you better say good-bye to your wife and kids. >> oh my god, you can't make that threat. >> you're threatening him, not his family. >> what percentage of the population -- seriously, what percentage are business owners? >> there's probably i don't know. two or three million business owners in america. >> but let me point something out. small businesses produce 70% of the jobs in america. >> i was asking for -- >> it matters how many jobs. >> i would say of those that are overwhelmingly republican, wouldn't you? >> no way of knowing.
5:03 pm
>> do more people work for the government? or -- >> , no first of all i'm not getting into an argument. i'm asking questions. >> raising some questions. >> that's all. >> raising awareness. kimberly, i want to ask you, people who are fans or who were fans and supporters of president obama like steve jobs had warned him of this very problem and he doesn't listen. when is he going to actually say something other than this because he -- it's weird, he has to clarify his clarifications. >> it's getting worse and he has that mindset. they want the government in charge and the government to pick the winner. they abhor creativity and in your entrepreneurship. that's what we've seen in his administration. >> steve jobs says apple would not have existed without the government. >> he also was very worried about the reelection because he
5:04 pm
felt obama was antibusiness. you want to talk about voter enthusiasm polls. >> sure. >> we talked about this, how exciting they are. we'll dwell on it the whole show. dems more enthusiastic. 39% down from 61%. so they're not enthusiastic. republicans, reverse. they're more enthusiastic. 51% to 35%. is this something that happens because you've got an incumbent who is likeable to people aren't thinking about it? also because it's a democrat in the white house so reports are more galvanize the. like we saw in 2010. obama has serious issues with turnout. the biggest block is hispanics and youth, two demographics that placed him in the white house. back to the you didn't build that. >> do we have to? >> it's working. >> before he made those comments, bob, he said the
5:05 pm
private sector was fine and he was more concerned with the government workers. well, a lot of those workers in northern virginia -- i'm not telling you something you don't know, that professional class, he needs virginia. it's a state he won if 2008. >> he's got more favorable. >> a lot of young professions. >> i say this all the time. he said you didn't build roads and bridges. >> he said the private sector is fine. >> i agree with that. >> the point about enthusiasm is important. it's low even for an incumbent, 39%. on the other side, when you've got somebody dislike among republicans as obama is, 51% is terrible. it shows what mitt romney's problem is. >> it should be higher. >> much higher. >> this is the first time -- fir presidential election $200 million has been spent on negative advertising. >> 35% of republicans with
5:06 pm
barack obama in the white house are not enthusiastic? that tells you more about mitt romney than anything, he's not an attract attractive candidate. >> but the incumbent is unattractive. >> i understand that but mitt romney is about the worst candidate you could put against barack obama. >> why are you spending so much money and sweating it and -- >> a lot more than that. >> how much is karl rove spending? 250 million bucks. >> record spending. >> he has the money. obama doesn't have the money. >> he doesn't have to worry. >> half the country is red, half is blue and there's voters in the middle. undecided are not unlikely to brake for president obama. do they like him, no. they don't like mitt romney either. >> the other thing striking about the polls, only 5% of the people are undecided. normally at this stage you should have 5 to 15%.
5:07 pm
but five% are voting for somebody else. >> the presidential debates are those -- they're the ones that will swing the enthusiasm. >> this is conjecture. right now it's almost like romney and obama are in marriage counseling, not talking to each other. he said this about building businesses, i did not say that. the debate is when they have to talk to each other and it's still going to be about this point. it's about a philosophical difference. >> what it going to be about? >> i can't get away from it. >> what you say is if mitt romney believes he wants to do george bush policy, which was a disasterrer. >> that's not the point. that's not the one obama's putting forth. >> what is romney putting forth? tax cuts for wealthy and what else? >> the opposite of the president. >> you run on tax cuts for rich people and it's is small
5:08 pm

5:12 pm
welcome back to "the five." i was is being to do this in a british accent but i'm not. mitt romney is in london, the first full day of his tour. he hopes to enhance his credibility as a world figure ahead of the election in november. kimberly, it's almost like he has to do this. remember president obama went overseas. he looks like the president, but there's a risk involved, right? you don't want to give the queen an ipod a gift with your speeches on it or hug the queen.
5:13 pm
wait, obama made those mistakes. do no harm, right? >> absolutely. he did look presidential. we commented during the break, that i like seeing him in front of ten downing street. >> which is where he belongs. a perfect prime minister of england. >> that's one job you'd like outsourced. >> he needs in the polls in terms of his international acumen, how people perceive him, foreign policy. so this is a good idea getting ahead of the message. bob had an interesting point saying mitt romney's missing out on an opportunity to define himself while the other side is spending heavily to define him negatively. why isn't he saying this is who i am, this is my background. >> the thing that surprises me more than anything is he's not stopping in afghanistan. he's got to fly over afghanistan to get to poland from israel. so maybe he has to go east a few
5:14 pm
thousand miles but i don't understand why a candidate for president doesn't go into a war zone. obama did. >> he went to kuwait, afghanistan, jordan, israel and france. do you think there's a fear of being away too long? is it a mistake? i kind of agree with bob. or is there a fear, i don't want to leave because he's getting momentum in. >> i don't know. i can't answer that question. what i want to talk about is what he did in london. he mentioned concerns over security. i think it's interesting because he got heat from cameron who said we didn't have our olympics in the middle of nowhere, referring to salt lake city. mitt romney says things no one likes to hear. >> what was he talking about, security around the olympics? >> he said is london ready for the olympics. >> he was talking about security because they were having problems. he's dead right. >> he is right.
5:15 pm
>> if you're not critical of safety issues and something bad happens you're to blame. it bugs me because so many people don't speak up. they didn't speak up at the fort hood shootings. he was a businessman. he said something that he honestly felt was right and he is right. >> to your point, bob, he was brought in to the salt lake olympics to basically save the olympics. he did an excellent job so he can highlight that and he should speak out. who knows better than mitt romney. >> he walked in and said look what's going on. are you sure you're doing it that way? president obama will walk into any venue and apologize for our american exceptionalism. we're trying to tone it down we're dismissive. he's apologetic. the only thing i found funny, anyone hear jay carney, when
5:16 pm
asked what the capital of israel s he couldn't answer. the reporter was like what do you consider the capital? he couldn't answer. tel aviv or jerusalem and he still couldn't answer. >> that's a great debate in the middle east. >> why couldn't he -- >> he should have been able to -- let's go back to romney. first of all it's interesting to see when you look at the history in salt lake, romney was the 6th choice to take that job. huntsman was in front of him. he did a good job. >> you act like he was sitting at home eating ding dongs. >> he was getting people not to pay their taxes. i don't understand. the salt lake olympics was positive. his family is a positive. why he's getting beat up on bain, rightfully so, why they don't invest money and biographical ads, i don't get
5:17 pm
it. >> very good point. i mentioned this the other day, it feels like the shooting in colorado was like a timeout, the ball was going back and forth. it feels like the last team with the ball will win the election and it's too early to grab the ball. >> it's not too early to -- that's one thing you do, 101 in politics. >> it's money, bob. >> kimberly maybe -- everybody primary win, he paraded his family out. he's got a great story to tell, him and his wife have been together, attractive sons, nice white beaches. why not do what bob says. >> i have been thinking about this. he has a great message but he's letting kodak moments speak for himself with his family, very supportive. i think he's kind of a later in the game kind of guy that waits for his -- >> he could say in the ad, the
5:18 pm
horses in the olympics that he owns. >> what? >> he's taking a shot at mitt romney. >> that's not a good idea. >> i think -- >> what worked for mitt romney during the primary? positive or negative ads? >> of course negative. >> here's the point. you say go positive now when barack obama going negative. >> he was running against a bunch of losers. >> that's not nice. >> you could do both. face it, it was not a tough field. >> i don't think you should call people like newt and santorum losers. >> the point is romney, you can do both. >> especially if your negatives are creeping up. >> you can only spend primary money. they have plenty, why they don't do it -- if he loses, it's going to be one of the reasons. >> he has cash coming in. >> it's no time to turn positive if negatives are working. >> it hasn't been. >> the president will be in

5:25 pm
against the law for cops to strike. i've been jumping over him on the calories and all that stuff but on the booze thing, he's got it very good point. going out and finding out and interceding kids when they're younger who are abusing booze and particularly those who are binge drinking, the most dangerous form of all, it's a good initiative. >> i disagree. >> that's because you binge drink. >> you can't cherry pick causes. i think these a nanny because he doesn't like salt. oh, binge drinking, i'm for that. >> i can do that. >> no you can't, you're a hypocrite. >> this show has been going nicely as opposed to yesterday when you dumped on me. >> oh my god, you kneecapped everybody in the first minute. >> talk about what he said about the cops. >> by the way, completely irresponsible why would he say

that and suggest illegal behavior. he's become so liberal. it was bad in the beginning but he's gone nuts. >> can he be sued for saying that? >> he's not going to be sued. >> let's get on the nanny state. the list gets longer of things he wants to ban. >> i'm surprised. i thought after the first school for cross-dressers funded by taxpayers was the worst idea he could have. this is right up there with the transsexual school. >> i love that, though. >> it failed, bitter by the way. bloomberg needs to lay off the sauce. what kind of idea is it to use taxpayer money to conduct the survey. we drink because of you, mayor bloomberg, we drink because of you and your bike lane. i drink because of you too, bob. >> we all drink because of you, bob. >> can i make a point?
5:27 pm
greg said cherry picking. it's one thing about calories and salt. booze is different and it costs the city billions of dollars a year. >> and brings in billions of dollars. >> rahm emanuel supports a ban on chick-fil-a. >> chick-fil-a's values are not chicago's values, they're not respectful of our residents, our neighbors, and our family members. if you're going to be part of the chicago community you should reflect the chicago values. >> chicago's burning averaging 42 murders a month and the mayor weighs in on chicken sandwiches? >> what chicago values, the ones established by al capone? chick-fil-a should be thankful or they'd be dead. the city should come with a warning saying when you come,
5:28 pm
you might be shot, hit by a car or beaten, 150,000 gang members. kids punching people on the roads, talk about deep-fried hate, he's deep-fried deadly. >> these people came from chicago. >> a grilled chicken filet is the threat? >> the fact is this guy, the coo, whatever is he, the family values company, the fact is he came out against gay marriage and he shouldn't mix his business with his personal philosophy. i guess he can, but i would not have a chick-fil-a within a thousand miles of my house. >> unless you were hungry. >> i wouldn't eat that crap. >> hold on, i did a little bit of research. >> hold on. stop. >> please. >> okay. i did a little bit of research and found that your bud y barack

obama and the dccc are he customers of chickfully with a number of democrats like john conners. more importantly, there's a broader point about priorities on the left. sodium, salt, chicken sandwiches, food. what is going on in. >> sugar. >> the priority is about -- it's no about that, it's about whether you can have gay marriage. >> put that ahead of murder. that's smart. >> the murders are -- >> it's coming out as grandstanding. it's a grandstanding. why does he -- i don't know, i didn't like the approach. you're making a personal attack. >> he didn't make a statement. >> i disagree with his beliefs but this is idiotic. this is -- his city is in trouble. >> that's my point. >> evidence asked a question. >> and he enjoyed answer it. >> he should. >> why should a mayor weigh in.
5:30 pm
>> he comes off as moronic. >> he says no comment? >> yes. >> exactly. >> that's what the guy says before he jumped on the gay people in america. >> it's okay to rent a place to the communist party of america but not okay to open a chick-fil-a. >> i would rather rent to the communist party. >> is obama going to get involved and denounce chicken sandwiches? >> anybody who uses their business to come out against gay majors is a fool. >> it's preachy. it's all politics. >> coming up, the latest obama administration department to politicize globing -- global warming. kimberly breaks it down next. building pass, corporate card, verizon 4g lte phone.
