saying this -- >> remember, the republican plan -- don't get sick. if you do get sick, die quickly. >> grayson this afternoon said -- stick it. >> i apologize the dead and their families that we haven't voted sooner to end this holocaust in america. >> should have reel in the language. otherwise, he's 100% correct. the republican plan is -- don't get sick. and republicans and democrats in the pockets of the insurance agencies may as well be killing people right now. arianna huffing ton on the latest politics. and senator jay rockefeller reveals exclusively on "countdown" an amendment he will introduce to make it law that insurance companies have to spend a minimum percentage on actual health care not profits or advertising or salaries. incitement to violence. ten-year veteran news max columnist john kerry. there's a remote although

gaining possibility america's military will intervene as a last resort to resolve the obama problem. is this still free speech? or is it now an illegal call for the violent overthrow of a lawfully elected government. worse, their prayer began deliver us oh god. but lonesome roads claimed they said, deliver us, obama. it continued, "hear our cry, oh god." but lou dobbs heard, hear our cry, obama. what was that? and phony outrage. the president tries to talk the international olympic committee to picking chicago and boosting chicago's economy so boehner says -- >> the president is going to go out to copenhagen when we have serious issues here at home that need to be debated. >> 24 hours or less, as opposed to say the four days that bush went to the olympics last year so he could sit there and watch.

all that and more now on "countdown." good evening from new york. courting republican congressman roy blount, the alternative health care plan from june 17. i guarantee you we will provide you with a bill. the fifth story in the countdown. 105 days later still waiting on republican's own proposal on health care reform. all they've managed to produce is manufactured outrage over alan grayson that doing nothing other than defeat reform amounts little more than a plan to kill people. the congressman had torn republicans a new one saying on the floor of the house last night that the republicans do have a plan and it's the height of let them eat cake-ism. >> it's a simple plan. here it is. the republicans' health care plan for america --

don't get sick. that's right, don't get sick. if you have insurance, don't get sick. if you don't have insurance, don't get sick. if you're sick, don't get sick. just don't get sick. that's what republicans have in mind for you, america. that's the republicans' health care plan. but i think that the republicans understand that that plan isn't always going to work. it's not a foolproof plan. so the republicans have a backup plan in case you do get sick. if you get sick in america, this is what the republicans want you to do -- if you get sick, america, the republican health care plan is this -- die quickly. >> republicans calling for an apology from congressman grayson, tom price, republican from georgia preparing a privileged resolution which was a breach of decor rum and integrity and proceedings of the house and the house proceeds in the behavior of mr. grayson for joe wilson having shouted "you

lie" to the president during his address to congress this month. beyond the childish equivalency, they're demanding from mr. grayson an apology to congress. something mr. wilson has not yet done. he complied and ripped them another new one. >> immediately after that speech, several republicans asked me to apologize. well, i would like to apologize. i would like to apologize for the dead. and here's why. according to this study -- health insurance and mortality in u.s. adults published two weeks ago, 44,789 americans die every year because they have no health insurance. let's remember that we should care about people even after they're born. so i call upon the democratic members of the house. i call on the republican members of the house. i call upon all of us to do our jobs for the sake of america, for the sake of those dying people and their families. i apologize to the dead and their families that we haven't

voted sooner to end this holocaust in america. >> about mr. grayson's reference caring about people even after they were born, the members of the senate finance committee rejected by a vote of 13-10 an amendment by republican hatch of utah restricting the abortion coverage to co-ops or exchange. the amendment is called offensive. the only female member voting with the democrats to defeat the amendment. rockefeller and schumer who proposed those amendments have vowed to keep trying as health care reform makes its way through congress. senator rockefeller can join us presently. let's turn to the co-founder and the editor and chief of the huffing ton post. arianna huffing ton. good evening. >> good evening. >> i think congressman grayson should not have used the word holocaust because it has a distinct and unique meaning. he should correct that as soon as possible. otherwise, i'm applauding him.

what do you think? >> i agree with you on both counts. the word holocaust should not have been used. he doesn't need any hyperbole. he has the facts on his side. he has truth on his side. he's an incredibly effective leader. he has to speak the truth. he should speak the truth. i agree with you -- the word holocaust is simply a distraction and should not have been used. but, apart from that, you know, grayson has been a real leader on so many fronts, both the health care front and the financial scandal. he's been demanding accountability to the fed. he's been demanding that corporate crooks are held accountable and we should not allow it to distract us from the true leadership in the congress. >> is this the proverbial emperor's new clothes moment. is this the crack in the rhetorical dam that the democrats have not been able to put through on this point? >> something very powerful when

he stands there and se the truth on two-counts -- first of all, that the republicans have no health care plan. and second, that they have no empathy. that's really what he was saying. they don't really care. in fact, they made it very clear. they're making it clear every day that they would oppose anything. it's not about the specifics, it's about wanting to oppose reform. wanting the political victory. wanting to undermine the president and the democratic majority. >> the alleged parallels to joe wilson. mr. grayson did not interrupt anybody let alone mr... they want an apology to congress. mr. wilson was wrong in claiming that the president had been wrong about lying about coverage for illegal immigrants. how many ways in total is that analogy with grayson and wilson with the false equivalency. >> it's a completely false equivalency.

it's unprecedented. but he also -- he also lied to himself in calling the president a liar. and there's no comparison. and there's the red herring. what is sad is it's distracting us from this very real debate. >> and you wondered, does the debate not about what grayson said in the terms he used, but that issue. that sort of starkly defining what the republicans have to offer in this or don't have to offer. is that not essential to the rest of this debate? >> well, what is essential is to stress the tremendous need and that the american people have for some real fundamental health care reform. established what congressman grayson referred to. he just came out and that makes it clear that there is a connection between the lack of health insurance and people dying.

the study says that over 44,000 people die every year because of the lack of health care issues. there's a very significant point that he was making. >> 122 more every day. and this was a day. so 122 more today. arianna huffing ton of huffing ton post. thank you, arianna. >> thank you, keith. >> the work to borrow a phrase goes on, the cause endures, the hope still lives, the dream shall never die. two democratic senators came up with new tax to pay for the health care reform. the democrat of west virginia and the member of the finance committee. good evening, senator, thank you for your time. >> thank you, thank you. >> let's start with your news. senator franken introduced something he called the fairness in health insurance act in 2009. you adapted it in the form of an amendment. tell me what it is, what you're trying to do. >> it's simple. i don't believe all of this is about politics and process. i think it's about how people are treated. do they get health care through

their insurance or do they not? do the insurance companies make so much money that it means they're not giving health care to the people? the answer to that is yes. so my amendment will be simple, along with franken -- al frapgen. that is that over half of the health care bill in the senate is spent on subsidies for the insurance companies. over half -- $485 billion so they can take in more customers and presumably do more business and make more profits. i think it would be about people and not about profits. and therefore, my amendment, which i may offer tonight because we're still in session, is going to say that 90% of all of the money that the insurance companies get from the subsidies, $485 billion in the senate the finance mark, they have to spend it on health care and the secretary of health and human services will monitor

that. they can't spend it on health care. they can't spend it on administrative expenses. don't worry about them. if that's -- you know, 10%. they've got left over, that's $49 billion. that's not so bad. but they have been ripping off the american consumers and they have been putting profits before people and west virginia. you just don't do that. >> you can't get a public option at this point. how are you going to get max baucus to treat them as we marry them in the oversight that they say in casinos in vegas. >> it's very hard to vote no. you know, i don't know how he's going to vote. that's his decision. you say, they're going to make $49 billion on this. to take that much money off of almost a half a trillion dollars and give it to them and let them

have it as 25 million, 30 million, 35 million more people towards the health care market as we insure them, it's unfair and unreasonable without their committing to spend 90% of that, house has it at 85%. 90 of that on delivering health care and proving that to the secretary of health and human services. a fair amendment. simple, fair, it's tough. they're not going to like it a lot. >> back to the public option. senator harken said the votes are still there? the full senate to pass it. do you agree with that asaysment? >> i do. we had the meeting with all of the people we voted for it last night and the press conference and people kind of laughed at it. we didn't. we do feel a sense of momentum. it's the only time in the history of the senate that anybody talked about this. we debated one public option, my amendment, for 4 1/2 hours. that's never happened. a lot of people now are looking

at all of the democrats who did vote for it. and we're not going to get a lot of republican votes. we're accustomed to that. i think we can get this. the president needs to help. everyone needs to pitch in and work harder than they have been. i look forward to it. it's the only way that people could be really sure of being able to afford to get health care in the future. the only way. but otherwise they're the mercy of the insurance companies. >> not getting too deeply to the weeds of the terminology, congressman grayson said the only public plan is don't get set. is that an important point for him to make? >> i'm not going to get in that, okay? i want to pass my amendment. >> okay. good luck with that. senator jay rockefeller. thanks for revealing the details of that amendment. where were the swing votes yesterday? they were in the pockets of the swing companies. first briefly note about the attendance record here which has been lately spotty.

call or click today. spent large parts of 27 of the last 30 days witnessing our

health care system from the front lines. i can confirm there's madness in the health care debate. the madness is that there's any debate at all. i have met no one, no one from patients to administrators to families who thinks the current system works. let alone works well. no one even believes that the incredible financial burdens and fears are not interrupting the actual ability of patients to get better. yet, in our fourth story, a democratic-controlled senate committee could not get the damn public option passed. to recap, eight democrats supported the rockefeller amendment that would have supported a medicare-type public option. but all of them against it. conrad of north dakota. senator john carper of delaware and bill nelson of florida. the more moderate version of the public option by chuck schumer also failed. mr. chairman baucus' apparent obsession of getting something out of the committee that should be noted when the gop was the majority party, it was more than

willing to pass crucial legislation with the simple majority when necessary. they passed 13% of legislation with fewer than 60 votes. the democrats passed 7% of its bills. without that 60-vote superma majority. taking on the system. marcus malisis. >> best of wishes to your father. >> blafrmg wilson as an example committed any one of them. they sat in the hospital room next to people splitting their prayers, half for the recovery of the loved ones, half getting the money to pay the bill. >> i've been looking at polling out of arkansas in the last couple of weeks and two data items pop out. one is that lincoln is truly an endangered incumbent. probably the most endangered senate democrat in 2010. she's in a lot of trouble. two, the public option is very popular in arkansas by a 3-2 margin. you think if you're sitting on the outside, you think if you

have trouble getting elected, do the popular thing and it will help you, right? lincoln votes against the public option and again, over 60% of his constituents. it makes no sense. i don't know how you explain it. democrats have a hard time of not just doing the right thing, just doing the popular thing. it's the right popular thing. >> is arkansas the state where three-quarters of the insurers are handled by one of the main insurers and they dictate who gets money in politics and what in terms of campaign oppositions? >> it's probably the only explanation that makes any sense. but at the end of the day, you're running at the republicans. real republican voters for arkansas, they're not going to vote for you, they're going to vote for the real ones, right. independents and democrats think you're not with them, why do they vote? >> what turning to the other

part of the equation. what is the president's strategy right now? do you know? >> i don't think anybody knows. enough mixed signals coming from the white house where you can support any theory. they'll say they'll work behind the scenes. work with the senate and the house conference committee to insert a robust public option and fight for it when it comes to both of those chambers again. obama wants to fight anything out of congress so he can declare victory and move on to the next issue. so, i don't know which side is right. i don't know if anybody knows. it depends on how i feel that day. >> what do you make of the premise coming out of the source's sympathetic to the white house' position. victory is health care reform, whether it's 10% of what should be done or 100% of what should be done, that the feat is leaving the status quo unchanged rather than doing some now, some next year, some the year after that as often as you can. >> i might have some sympathy

for that line. if, sort of the bad case snare joe wasn't so absolutely horrid. right now we're talking about the compromised position -- it's the mandates so people are forced to buy insurance. but they have to buy it from the crappy insurance companies that have created the problem to begin with. and, so, to me, there can be nothing worse than telling the young people who really were so hopeful and supportive of obama that, you know what, we're not going to get the change that we wanted, we're going to send some of the hard-earned dollars to the terrible, terrible insurance companies. >> make is the phrase, make you do it. >> a step backwards. abths absolutely. >> is the president not the one applying pressure on the democrats to do the right thing, where is the necessary leverage supposed to come from. you and me and the people who watch and the people who participate on daily, there are only so many. >> there's a lot of grassroots opposition to eliminating the

public option. don't kid yourself, they would have gotten rid of the public option a long time ago if they had been given the opportunity to do so. so there is a lot of support for the public option, not just in to people and progressive media, but also in labor unions. the biggest hero for the whole debate are the 50 to 60 house democrat progressives who said they will not vote for any bill without a robust public option. because if obama wants any bill to sign, just to say he's reformed the system, he cannot do that if the house progresses the vote against the bad bill. so as long as they stay strong, so far, so good, we're in good shape. >> there's the subplot in the house, obviously. daily coast. as always, great, thanks. >> thank you very much. to my knowledge, no rational left wing website advocated the overthrow of the bush administration by the military. no irrational left wing website did so. here's news max with glenn beck dressed up as uncle sam and the print site claiming it's the

on the heels of a survey posted on facebook asking "should obama be killed"? one right wing columnist floated the idea of a military coup to unseat the president, as if it's not madness, dislikeness, and treason nous. a hope and gaining possibility that america's military will intervene at the last resort to resolve the obama problem.

don't dismiss it as unrealistic. increasingly violent rhetoric and treasonous rhetoric from the right. obama risked a intervention. john l. perry writes -- military intervention is what obama's accelerating agenda to fundamental change to a marxist state. a coup is not an ideal option but obama's radical ideals are acceptable or reversible. not only a foot but advocating a military intervention. both point reasons why the military would stage such a coup and proposes this fantasy. a bloodless coup to restore and defend the constitution by overthrowing it to the administration that would do the serious business of funding the nation by destroying the nation. military-trained nation builders replace the radical left comisars.

mr. perry has no relationship with newsmax other than an unpaid blogger. curious because the byline at the bottom, john l. perry is a regular columnist for newsmax.com. if that's not clear, tpm reports he's been a regular columnist for newsmax since 1999. this as the fallout continues over the poll in facebook. the secret service is now investigating the threat and the developer of the on-line application that was used to create the survey has come forward telling politico there's definitely in the culture of paranoia and fear and both sides are reacting in extreme ways. people carrying guns to town hall meetingsment. posting such a poll cools and calms the situation? another idiot. joining me now, chris hayes. good evening, keith. >> good evening. >> please tell me the news max crowd with the ann coulter

e-mail alerts, it adds free handguns, military arms and trains you, even these people have to repudiate the interest of an overthrow of the government. >> the story is they did take it down from the website. it was a bloodless coup. one should note it was a bloodless coup, very gentlemenly what he proposed. it is taboo. rightfully so, it's not the sort of thing that should be in the normal course of our political discussions of a path forward, even amongst genuine ideologues. it's good that he took it down. >> what really matters is the public committee provides support to newsmax by using the e-mail listserves. we hear michael steels announce this column or anyone else in the proposed authority driving

the car. >> this is not going to happen. this is a game that the right plays really well. remember that move on -- move-on has an open contest and someone sends in a video -- 2,000 videos and there was some momentary hitler. that became a national news story for a week when we had calls for democrats to denounce move-on. news max is out there. but it's part of the right wing noise machine. i mean, in good standing. there's all sorts of bigtime right wingers who write for and are associated with it. as you said, it's in the business sense of the rnc. and, you know, fair is fair. if that's the way that -- that's the standard that's going to be applied in which you constantly have to denounce the ideologues saying crazy things to your right or left, then michael steele should step up to the plate. >> sounds like they're coming for you right now. you break in there? burt land caster there dressed

up in the seven days -- >> the door is barred. >> is it a secondary trick here? is there a real hope that some gentleman might be a reincarnation of burt lancaster. no offense to burt lancaster. the more dangerous the fantasy gets. the more the possibility has to look in to it as the facebook thing. they can use the response as something to campaign against the democrats in the midterms. >> i don't know. who knows. it strikes me that it's probably not that fun. there is taylor branch talking about this book that he did talking to the clintons. there's a genuine mass of -- not mass but an actual movement of violent insurrection of the country in the clinton years. it was provoked as a time that's far lest, intense, and sort of under stress at the moments that we find ourselves in right now.

i tend to be a free speech absolutist about all of this. i sort of remember all that. they can publish whatever they want. at the same time, it' easy how -- disconcerting how easily we've forgotten that militia moment in american history and the sort of edging towards that kind of rhetoric that we're seeing now. >> there's a timothy mcveigh, he'll get his idea from something like this if not something like this. chris hayes of "the nation." keep fighting that fight as they come through your door. >> thank you, sir. obama can't go to copenhagen to lobby the international committee to warrant the 16 games and the jobs that it will produce for chicago. mitt romney can run for oh president based on how well he ran the 2002 olympics in salt lake city. they're not praying hear our god, obama, they're crying hear our cry, oh god.

deliver us, obama." they wanted their sheep to believe community organizers are praying to obama. there are sheep out there. who knew? starting the video. uncovered by the good folks. go to lou dobbs.com to see our full video. we urge you to see it because it exposes again -- very dangerous forces at work in this country supporting our supreme leader. now this video shows members of the community organizing groups with the usual foundation -- materially -- praying to our supreme leader over health care back in december of 19 -- of 2008. you've got to hear this. that is a remarkable -- remarkable -- that's -- you've got to see this. go to allowdobbs.com. it will, i guarantee you, put

chills down your back. i've got chills down my back. i'm cold. i need a blanket. i need to retire. lou -- "oh god" oh god? now they're praying to the irish? dobbs. today's "worst person." and, where are my teeth? where in the world --

you know me. almost 30 years behind the sports desk has turned me into somebody larger than life, literally. but those days are back-back-back-back-back gone! i'm chris berman, and i lost 41 pounds with nutrisystem. just order nutrisystem for men today to get four weeks of awesome food, and learn how to get three extra weeks free. let's go to the highlights. mike "all i ate was golic bread": down, 51 pounds. don "blue suede" shula: down 32 pounds. dan "glam man" marino: lost 22 pounds. guys, you can do this.

in the number one story, the right wing chorus ripping the president for trying to bring the olympics back to america. it's been joined by the house minority leader and no one day the president is dedicated to this effort. this afternoon, the first lady joined oprah winfrey on the ground in denmark.

the president will leave for copenhagen tomorrow night. she'll speak to the ioc the following morning. president bush you'll recall took in the last olympic games in china last year leading the country fighting two wars on the economic collapse. he found time, four days of it, to fund the beijing games and spank the volleyball players. our president spent 24 hours trying to bring the olympics and the economic boone home to the u.s. is equally laughable and predictab predictable. >> president obama is helping to sway the international olympic committee. >> he had the olympics. how is the city of chicago and illinois that is broke going to benefit. >> vancouver olympics are on 2012, 2010.

it hasn't happened yet, bif. there are the additional pieces. the conference call to reporters yesterday. >> the goal should be create in not job opportunities seven years from now, but job opportunities today. if the priority is the olympics in seven years, tell the priority, that's what we focused on. we won't create that between now and 2016. >> you have jobs now building stuff for seven years from now, mike. they don't put up the olympic facilities overnight. and boehner picked up on the anti-olympic stupidity. >> he's the president of the united states. not the mayor of chicago. and the problems we have here at home affect all americans, that's where the attention ought to be. >> good. we know who's there. supercapitalism, now out in paperback. and professor of public policy

in california from berkeley from which venue he joins us. thank you for your time, sir. >> good evening, keith. >> you want to explain the complex principal that the olympics start in 2016 only means that jobs start in 2016. >> what we know from previous olympics in 1996 from atlanta and salt lake city, we know immediately after the olympic decision is made, there are jobs and a lot of jobs, construction, infrastructure, and sales and marketing, white collar, blue collar jobs. this is a jobs machine. it starts right away. >> sports and economic analysis are a dangerous thing to mix, especially when it comes to pro sports. do you think the games in chicago would boost the economy or cause u.s. money? >> boosting the economy is what we've seen in previous olympics. and in the independent study done by the dean of the business school at cal state, california state in sacramento found about 22.5 billion dollars of net new

economic activity in the chicago area. but also in the entire great lakes area from the olympics. so that's a big amount of money. >> the white house secretary mr. gibbs was asked about mr. steele's comments and he responded, who is he rooting for? is the white house successful in framing this? the republicans criticize the trip, they're, in fact, rooting against america. >> not only rooting against america, but rooting against american workers. talking here about jobs at a time when american workers need jobs. and i'm afraid that some republicans, maybe a little bit incensensitive to that fact. already last year, the economy was giving the gurgles. we had wars in two-countries and president bush spent four days in china, opening ceremonies and so to speak, back slapping the athletes. double standard? >> there's a bit of a
