also don't united states money to embrace traditional marriage. both sides should be respect dollars, that's what freedom of expression is all about. when politicians try to attack a business because they don't like the politics of its management, that's flat out unamerican. the argument that antigay marriage people are violating somebody's rights is flat out false. marriage is not a constitutional right. we expect the supreme court will further define that issue but right now marriage is regulated by the states and sack correct in many religions. attacking or not attacking many african-american pastors against gay marriage. you don't hear calls to boycott those churches, do you?

more than fascism. the regimes communist, oppressive is to shut down the opposition, silence them, punish them. that's what the mayor's of chicago, san francisco want to do punish chick-fil-a. talking points believes the fast vort of americans condemn that stance. again, there are good people on both sides of the gay marriage issue. and we must protect their sincerely held beliefs. it is not wrong to believe american society is stronger and the family unit is better served when mample is between a man and woman. it is not wrong for homosexual americans to want to get as much parody as they can. robust debate a good thing. threats and intimidation unamerican. that's the memo. >> reaction. joining us from washington fox news analyst kirsten powers and here in the studio jeanine pirro author of the big new

book sly fox. all right janine, let's deal with the constitutional issue first, because you are a judge, all right? you understand the constitution. correct? you hesitated. >> no, i'm waiting for the question to hit me. >> in the constitution it says, all right? americans rights have to be protected. and we have, the bill of rights. nowhere in the bill of rights does marriage appear, correct? >> that's correct. you were right in your talking points. it is not a constitutional right. it's not recognized. it comes under the right of privacy but here's the bottom line. >> bill: who would say it comes under the right of privacy? marriage is public. >> well, it is public but someone would say that there is probably a presumed constitutional. marriages should be this is not a marriage issue. this is about the right a

company that's never had a problem with gays that openly employs gays, that has a discrimination policy against anything that discriminates on sexual orientation because they don't like it owner because somebody's blood, sweat tears and money went into this company believes in traditional marriage. >> you see this as an attack by some left wing people on religion religious beliefs. >> without a doubt. why are they going to north carolina why are they boycotting north carolina. that condemned and didn't vote for gay marriage. demonize the whole party. so, janine, kirsten, sees it as an attack by some people on the left, mayors chicago, boston, lee of san francisco because they have been the three most outspoken and you

say? >> i think that's absolutely right. but i do think -- you raised a really great point in your talking points about the fact that they are not going after african-american pastors who aren't -- they are not part of the religious right but they have the exact same orthodox christian views on these issues. and for some reason they are not going after that let's not forget about three months ago barack obama would have been one of the people who didn't share chicago's values according to rahm emanuel he wasn't for gay marriage but now when this -- >> bill: between mr. cathy and mr. obama you make a point about rahm emanuel one of our letter writers later makes the same point. rahm impanel worked for barack obama when he opposed gay marriage. he didn't resign in protest. there is a difference because mr. cathy gives money to fight against gay marriage, all

right? so he is an activist. and, also, he said, janine, publicly, to an atlanta radio station that god is going to punish the united states for embracing gay marriage and whatever. so it's a lot hotter than somebody like barack obama who u.s. is said well, you know whatever i said. >> that's a little more to the right no question about it when you say god is going to question americans. then you will will get some people up in arms. the bottom line is this: are we going to destroy an american company is that employs americans. people who work double shifts, bill, to pay their rent because you don't know what this guys thinks. >> bill: no folks folks have rin up and chick-fil-a had best day in history starting to sell salmon they ran out of chicken people are zipping around, there it is. number two you haven't heard a word out of the mayor's for three days. they just got hammered

hammered here, traditional force is one. did they not, kirsten, didn't the traditional forces win? i don't know what they want. that's a big victory. i think the i don't know why these conservative christians are to be poking the gay community. they support traditional marriage. pleasure. >> fine, you don't agree with that, a lot of people don't agree with it. the fact remains that mr. cathy has a right to say it without being punished this pinhead in this car that you where to see pulls up to chick-fil-a and does, this go. free water, right? if i can fillet.

>> the corporation gives money to hate groups. hate groups. just because people want to kiss another guy. >> bill: so that idiot has the right to say that he is punishing this poor girl that guy has a right to say what he said. but it's wrong to use that girl as his whipping board. right? >> yeah. well, look, he he is the one who sounds kind of hateful in that situation. it's sort of interesting. >> bill: if it were me i would have poured the water on his head but that's me. >> there is no doubt about that i'm quite sure. >> last word. >> i'm going to chick-fil-a one at nyu in new york city but i'm going there. >> bill: go to chick-fil-a, everybody. bring me back a couple of. >> salmon? [ laughter ] >> bill: i like chicken. i'm a chicken guy. all right, ladies, thanks very

much. next on the run down, 13 states currently approve of president obama's job performance. how did he win re-election? laura ingraham on that. megyn kelly on president obama ordering executive order very quietly about how to treat high risk african-american st

week in review ingraham angle segment tonight.

13 states of are approving the president obama's job performance. here they are: the other 37 states do not think the president is doing a good job. so how can he win re-election? joining us now from washington fox news analyst and radio talk show star laura ingraham. what are the odds in your opinion that president obama gets reelected in november? well, bill, if you look at the real clear politics average of all the polls, obama is up slightly like 2.8%. something like that today. if you look at where the money is going. couple of things that you are going on here. polls sighting big time home states. these are not going to go for romney.

interesting plays are always in the states like nevada up over obama virginia where it is fairly dead even. down in florida average. romney, i believe his strength you are seeing in an odd way play out in the previous segment which is chick-fil-a controversy. romney wasn't at chick-fil-a yesterday coming forward and saying, you know, this has gotten out of hand the demonization of people. and we want to stand for something for something that is constitutionally based some of them there for marriage not entirely political has some political meaning. and i think you are going to election day with a huge turnout against kind of this redefining of marriage american institutions. >> bill: you are the vegas

queen. we all know that. you can go and see ms. laura at the blackjack table. >> thank you. >> bill: but in vegas the wise guys are betting big time that the obama is getting reelected. you seem to be saying no, you don't think that that you think -- >> -- i don't. >> so you think that in the end it might be a surprise for romney, a big victory for romney? >> i think it may be. i'm not with dick morris who thinks this is going to be a big blow out. do i believe it should be? yes. i think we have had some time lost this summer on the part of the romney campaign. i don't believe the foreign trip to his benefit because the press will obviously go to the supposed gaffes and not focus on the great speech he gave in poland. >> bill: you are never going to get an accurate play on romney from the press. everyone knows that so you are going to have to basically go by what the people are feeling and you think that they are feeling uneasy about the direction of the country.

now, interestingly enough, in this gallup rundown here, the states that matter the most, florida, 46% he approval of president obama. virginia 46. nevada 45. and ohio crucial, 44%. with numbers like that it's almost impossible for the president to win. yet in the cbs poll yesterday, cbs, quinnipiac, "new york times," had the swing states gone. so it's a confusing morass right now. >> it is confusing. you were tackling the wisconsin governor recall, right, a lot of polls showing he was in trouble up to the very end. i really believe that a lot of these pollsters are trying to do their best. oversamples democrats. >> bill: that's what they did yesterday in the quinnipiac poll. >> they did again. 7%, something like that. >> over sampled. i think romney needs to do. he needs to do a better job of

framing himself as a forward-looking, substantive. >> bill: if you were romney, would have you been out at chick-fil-a today new were romney. >> i would. >> bill: that would have been unbelievable photo on. i think romney -- here is what i think he should have done. dressed up like the chicken. had the little chicken. >> no, no. bill, should have been the cow. >> only if you went in that cow outfit they have at the chick-fil-a. you pop out as the cow. >> bill: they don't sell burgers. no, they have a cow. you don't even know. it's the branding of chick-fil-a the cow and they have a thing about how chickens is the great fast food play. but, look, i think it would have been good for him to go. maybe buy some gift certificates for the media and maybe for the obama campaign in denver. romney has been absent tonight. >> bill: maybe he will go tomorrow. our pal jon stewart you love him. >> yeah. great guy. >> he actually went after harry reid, the senate majority leader, go.

>> what is the worst thick is harry reid going on to speculate that mitt's, quote: poor father must be so embarrassed about his son can we change that please? yes. [ laughter ] i cannot believe you just went dead dad shame on mitt romney. as somebody who has truly and thoroughly disappointed his still living father on many occasions. let me just say that is a bull [bleep] shot. >> bill: wow, how about that, huh? >> once in a while, a broken clock is right, right? a couple times a day. >> bill: stewart can be very tough on his own people. >> he can be. every once in a while not quite parity with but he does a good show. harry reid whether it's the

dead father comments or the trading and gossip about romney's tax returns. clearly he is being sent out as hench man for the obama campaign i'm floating these rumors and gossip. >> bill: shouldn't the hench man be a little more mash choo. >> or taller. >> bill: send somebody out there that is going -- you have got to go with pelosi. >> you can't sent mr. that go out there as the hench man. >> mr. that magoo jim is rolling over. >> their citizen howl the iii, too. we know our culture quiz. >> bill: i guess we do. directly ahead, megyn kelly on president obama very quietly issuing an executive order that seems to separate african-americans students in the classic. ms. megyn will explain after these messages.

>> bill: kelly file segment tonight on jury trial 26th, president obama issued executive order very quietly giving african-american students greater access to, quote: a complete and competitive education, unquote. what exactly does that mean? here now to explain attorney and fox news anchor megyn kelly. i am mystified by this executive order. you explain it to me please. >> there is a crisis for african-americans in many of our schools in terms of the discipline they face and the lack of graduation and the fact that they are two years behind whites in terms of what the level of education that he they are attaining even though they are in the same grade. so they are trying to look at this. now, it does come right after the president received a report from the same group to which he announced this policy that if he didn't do something for the african-american community is he in danger of losing significant portions of the african-american vote in

some critical swing states. but the president comes out and says okay, da i want to create a commission that's going to look into this problem in our schools? and then i also want to work with communities to try to. >> bill: he doesn't have to do an executive order to create a commission to look into how to better serve those children. >> the commission is doing more than just looking into it. >> bill: what is it doing. >> the most controversial part of what it is doing is it wants to eliminate methods that lead to the desperate use of disciplinary tools. >> what does that mean. >> black students are getting expelled and suspended more than white students are. >> bill: unfairly. >> that begs the question. is it because they're creating more of a disciplinary problem than the white students? or is it just that five white whites do the black dos and blacks get punished more harshly. >> bill: i don't think that's the case though. now you are opening this up to chaos.

if you are going to have expulsion for white kids different from, you pelings for black kids. that will be lawsuits all day. >> the already saying maryland school district just implemented a similar policy can't have the number of blacks that we get expelled and suspended that we have. work out your numbers to make them even. the critics came out and said that's going to result in white students getting expelled or suspended for lesser offenses. >> bill: they can't have that. >> just to even out the numbers. >> bill: is that what president obama wants? >> i doubt that but i think he is trying to address a problem that government is not necessarily well-suited to address. >> bill: but it seems to me, and this is when w. all due respect to mr. obama. he doesn't know what he wants to do. he uses his power, executive order which should be only used sparingly to create a situation where he doesn't know what to do. what do you do? >> one other thing is he doing is he is encouraging the community to come together to look at this problem and ask why.

>> bill: you don't need an executive order to do that. >> it's not really the issue. shouldn't would he be doing something? seriously there is a crisis among minority groups in particular african-americans. >> bill: do you know why. >> i know that many people believe it's because seven out of 10 black children now are born to parents with only one parent household. >> bill: you just lit it. that's -- hit it that's the problem that the home life of the students in certain areas, and i don't know if it's a black-white thing a lot of white kids with the same problem raised by a mother. >> three out of ten. seven out of ten babies born out of wedlock. that's what's going on by the time they get to school they don't know anything. there is not a book in the house. >> they are not set up. >> no supervision. >> that's why i say there is only so much president obama can do about that. >> bill: that's right it's a bogus issue. >> community outreach part of the program get leaders to come together in the community and say what are we going to do about the underlying problem that makes a lot of sense. >> bill: what you can do about out of marriage births?

what you can do? that's the problem. >> much more fund mental change. >> bill: executive order saying you can't do that? >> yeah. not going to happen. >> bill: that's right. so, to me this is a phony issue. >> i know you and bernie have been covering. this the first step is calling attention to the problem. admitting there is a problem and then addressing t in a way that, you know, you are not accused of being down on african-americans. it's a real issue in the african-american community needs to understand it and come out in front of it. >> bill: i will tell you what, if they set up different disciplinary standards based on skin color, you are going -- there will be riots. there will be riots in this country. you can't do that. >> you can't start suspending the white students for throwing spit balls just so that the suspension numbers the same. >> bill: it's a racist action. >> that is the worst case scenario. that's not what president obama is trying to do. criticism of the program. >> bill: that disturbs me. i want the president of the united states to have a clue and then he use his power and

bully pulpit to say, you know, we should be doing this create commission. >> you can't just say that there is a dispirit number of blacks getting expelled. fix the numbers, schools. fix the numbers. that doesn't solve the problem. >> i don't think he wants to do that. >> again, i don't know that you are right. because. >> if he wants to do that that's outrageous. he is saying eliminate the methods that lead to the desperate use of rules. dispirit impact is a term of art in the legal world. maryland just did controversial way to look at what happens in schools and in crimes. >> bill: i would like you to call the secretary of education. >> arnie? >> bill: you will be back in two weeks? >> a week. i take a week off every once in a while. >> bill: do a little research and find out what this guy wants to do here. this is troubling. and the next kelly file we will have it, okay? fair enough? all right. enjoy your vacation. >> that's better than the

other gesture i did on my show which. >> oh she did the italian thing. >> i thought it meant bug off but it means something else off. >> bill: you live in new york and you don't know what that means? >> you are north going to go to one italian restaurant now. plenty more as the factor moves along this evening. you have noticed gas prices going up? i bet you have. lou dobbs is going to tell us why it's a con. and, next: barney frank, rod blagojevich get a taste of the know spin zone special series on strange factor moments continues. we hope you stay tuned.

>> bill: in the impact segment tonight, we wrap up our series on the strangest moments in factor history. without a doubt. without the a doubt the wildest most controversial segment ever was with congressman barney frank when he came in here and tried to

tell us that he had nothing to do with the bad stuff that happened at fannie mae and freddie mac. you still went out in july and said everything was great and off that a lot of people bought stock and lost everything they had. >> oh, no. >> bill: yes, oh yes. >> know said it was a good investment. >> bill: don't give us any of that we just heard the words. what are you -- you didn't say that? you want me to play it again for you? >> you didn't listen to it. >> bill: i listened to every word you said and i have the transcript right here. >> i said t wasn't a good investment. >> bill: yeah. and you said going forward we're going to be swell. >> i didn't say swell. >> bill: don't, look stop the b.s. here. stop the crap. from august 2007 to august 2008 under your tutelage. >> the problem going on your show. >> bill: 90%. 90%. oh, none of this was your fault. oh, no. people lost millions of dollars. it wasn't your fault. come on, you coward. say the truth. >> what do you mean, coward?

may i talk? >> bill: you blame everybody else. you are a coward. >> here is the problem with going on your show. you start ranting and the only way to respond is almost to look as boorish as you. but here's the facts. i specifically said in the quote you just played that i didn't think it was a good investment. >> bill: bottom line is stock drops 90%. in any private industry you are out. and the congressman is out. is he retiring after getting married becoming the first u.s. congressman ever to serve and say married gay man. buddy also out of politics now. before he left we took him to task for attending the far left hate fest that the daily kos puts on. we are down on that web site because they run vicious car tunes and articles that demean people with whom they disagree. this was the horrible illustration. president bush and senator lieberman that i hit dodd with. >> you okay with that cartoon, sir? >> of course not. that's not the issue, mr. o'reilly. >> of course it's the issue

that's what they do on the site. they do that hate stuff all the time. >> you suggested that we ought not to participate. >> bill: correct. >> because six or eight or ten people here have said something. >> bill: there is thousands of vial postings on that web site. >> mr. o'reilly there are thousands on your posting. >> bill: there aren't any. we take them off right away. >> talking about al qaeda attacking san francisco? blowing up. >> bill: when did i say that senator. >> you said that in 2006. where, what forum, when. >> right here i believe on your own show. >> bill: you are wrong. i didn't say it here. you don't know what the hell i said. you got it from media matters. you don't know. >> bill: finally rod blagojevich currently serving 14 years in federal prison for trying to sell barack obama's senate seat. before he was found guilty, the former illinois governor talked to me about his conversations surrounding the corruption charge. >> bill: in your opinion, are those conversations with the

president and rahm emanuel are they damaging to those individuals? >> well,. >> bill: that's an easy one, governor. come on now. you don't have to say how. are they damaging in your opinion? >> um, the question is, was there anything illegal. >> bill: no, the conversation in your opinion, will they damage president obama or rahm emanuel when the tapes come out as you want? will it be damaging to them? >> there is a court order that prohibits me from what was saying. >> bill: you don't have to say. i'm asking your opinion, your humble been if when stuff is played are there going to be people go, whoa, is it going to be damaging to the president or rahm emanuel or both? it's an opinion question. >> i will leave that to others. >> bill: oh, man, you are dodging, you are dancing. how can you do this? you are supposed to be a straight-up guy. come on, you are dancing, you

are dodging. yes or no in your opinion is it damaging or not? come on, there is nothing wrong with that you are not breaking anybody's confidence. you are not going to get in trouble. you already in a lot of trouble. this isn't going to make it worse. never got an answer. now, next week we'll have another special series on the american cities that most despise us. the o'reilly factor. we sent jesse watters to those places and now they will despise us more that series begins on monday. don't miss it. we come right back, lou dobbs on rising gasoline prices, we're all getting hosed again. and then the great american news quiz the world war ii edition. this is a good one. up ahead.

>> bill: 6% in one month. once again. hosed at the pump. what's the excuse this time. lou dobbs the king of the oil company excuses. >> agree with you, bill. >> bill: just so the audience knows my theory is the speculators drive it up. then they drive it down. they make money going up, they make money selling short. the oil companies piggy back on the ride. okay, here we go again and it's all a big con.

>> well, everybody is making a little money. i think. >> bill: i'm not making any money. are you making any money on this i'm not making any money. >> a little. >> bill: costing me more. >> i save money, when i drive i save money when prices are lower. you and i were talking about. about to characterize we were talking about it. back in february about those high prices. >> bill: yeah. >> the president was calling for the fraud committee to come in on oil. >> bill: the fraud committee. >> the prices dropped and here we are. >> bill: now they are going back up again. >> they moved up a little bit in july. >> bill: 20 cents a gallon for you because you are rich that's not much. for the people in leavitt town where my mom lives 20 cents a gallon that's a lot. come on. >> you are looking at 3.53 the national average the price went up 17 cents right at 20 cents as you say but we also have the worst drought in, well. >> bill: a drought? does that mean that cars are sweating? >> actually, they are sweating. they are sweating about

drought. are they they going to get the ethanol. 10% of the -- >> bill: you say because of the drought the corn is more expensive. >> that's right. >> these corn and ethanol and that's why the price is going up. that actually makes a little bit of sense. >> we're making progress. >> bill: every gallon of gasoline has ethanol in it corn in it. >> 10%. >> all right. so what else? what are the other excuses? the other excuse could be the usual excuses which is of course tension in the persian gulf. >> bill: tension? a month ago there wasn't tension. >> tensions building. >> bill: they are all of a sudden building, are they not. >> iran has been there. all right. israel is there. >> i may have to give up my oil company apologist card if you keep this up. >> bill: we are not buying that the ethanol. tension is building right out b.s. what else? >> the fact is that we are

watching right now a little increase in demand. is it going to rides to more more -- rise in this another 20 cents probably not. >> there is plenty of oil on the world market though. >> bill: it's another con. obama care now the projection is that a lot of people are going to come into the health system and we don't have enough doctors in the united states. >> right. >> bill: is that true? >> i don't think so. not yet. i don't think that what we are looking at is a doctor shortage so-called. really that profound right now. we're going to add 20 million more folks into the system, insurance coverage. at that point, it starts to be a little close. buff we actually have, to the general population, right now, a lower ratio of doctors to the general population that we did 30 years ago.

>> bill: more doctors now available. all right. when dr. welby was out there. >> contact exactly. >> bill: are the doctors going to up down or stay the same. that drives how many doctors are going to be around. >> it does and in part it looks like it's going to be lower. it looks like we are going to see greater control under obama care than we have ever seen. >> bill: you predict that doctor's salaries are going to go down. in britain some doctors, a friend of mine did. this opt out of the national healthcare and they are private and that's all they do. >> sure. >> bill: doctors will be able to do that here, right? >> absolutely. we will also see a number of doctors, some of the estimates range as high as 150,000 doctors who will decide to retire over the course of the next decade or so. because of obama care and the. >> bill: are there enough kids -- >> they are going to be replaced. it's going to take a while. >> bill: are we going to have more doctors from overseas come in. >> 25% of our doctors will be
