larry king now meet laura ingram the queen of conservative talk radio if you're going to play a bidding war for various constituency groups the democrats will always be able to outbid you sounds all of the reasons why the scandals and the concern is if you if you ask too many questions if you dig too deeply if you're a whistleblower then look out for people to say it's like it is like nixon and her stance on immigration it can't be that anyone who manages to sneak across the border is suddenly an american i don't believe that for all next on larry king. my guest today laura ingle her old friend the most listened to woman in poser girl talk radio host of laura ingle show and laura podcast she's also

a new york times bestselling author of five books two of them agreed to be here in washington with this get right to it right when i was had some controversy what do you make of the a.p. phone records but i think at the beginning people thought well the administration has to really clamp down on this you know classified information leaking out and maybe it was good because it would be involve a terrorist attack or you don't want any any journalist publishing anything ahead of time a promise as it turned out that the a.p. actually ceded to the government's wishes and didn't publicize anything before they were supposed to only afterward did they say a terror attack was thwarted. it looks like now the administration was angry even about that and the view is that this is kind of a retribution against the people in both parties want the government to do this weren't they complaining in the past that they didn't do this well let's be fair i am trying to be fair here but larry i think what the what if people from bob or

word to to al hunt to you know it's not known as the raging concern. evidence are saying when to say this this is going way too broad to to look at all the records of the associated press not just one person but a very wide swath of records it's too much and now it looks like that fox news. journalist of fox news and others at fox news also have not just business lines monitored but personal communications monitored including one reporter's parents so the concern is if you if you ask too many questions if you dig too deeply if you're a whistleblower then look out. in the. well that you know and some like a bob woodward to say this people to say it's like it is like nixon and jay carney . to ensure that the emergence of broader national security not leaked because the consequences can be. oh i think it is absolutely

right about that i agree with jay carney and i was defending well i think so but again the a.p. narrative doesn't really match up to what he's saying because the a.p. did not publish classified information they actually work for the government and i was most journalists do i think when when asked not to breach security so i think jay carney's point is well taken problem is the administration itself has had some problems on this larry with with releasing operational details after bin laden was killed they came out that next day and rushed out to tell what happened in the compound room oh gosh larry hold on let's that me. why why do you think. obama is doing this you know why do you think they're doing it well i don't think we know i don't think we know i mean they're most it seems regions where it is not well i don't know i mean i think to jump to the conclusion that they have al touristic reasons when it involves journalists that are digging. a.p.

was just reporting but someone like a james rosen at fox news digging cheryl at. ison at c.b.s. digging on fast and furious she thinks her computers might have been compromised i think we just need to know and i think the public needs to know i think we need a vigorous press on the left right and center and i do believe investigation you know and i mean maybe there's nothing nefarious about this at all ok what do you make of the target you don't know yet i don't think so nor do i have not been audited but i should have said that because now them probably will be audit this when they get this this larry is really frightening because we have individuals who are starting these small groups and these are like little groups to teach the constitution little groups to teach high school kids about founding principles and most of the people are more conservative right the scrutiny had not been given to more liberal groups and asked really probing questions about well who are

the students that you're teaching we want their names. we want their names what you know what is that all about the so was seventy three seventy thousand requests yes exempt status come on how do you pick and choose from the dollars to get also the new bill no but it why don't we why do we investigated scenes from all the examination of this so far only conservative you do you blame obama for that but i think if he does he there doesn't know anything that's going on as an administration as the chief executive officer of the government or he knows something about it or he's giving tacit approval to it and said i don't i want to be kept in the dark but you know all these people are a pain they're going to be a pain in the midterm elections i don't know but all i'm saying is let the process go forward i think making these grand pronouncements that it's you know that he should be impeached. i think that's that's ridiculous why do you think it was really his popular there's not i think it's a night i think you people think he's

a nice guy i mean i think he has a beautiful family i think he seems like a great of scandals running at once and just i think people still want to think the best of their president and i think i think people want to believe and i think he's he's the first african-american president i think it's so heartbreaking for people to think that he would somehow approve of all this or set the groundwork or set the table for this there's no you this fifty eight percent of americans polled say he's still a strong leader. same level. was killed so it's now i mean i think the c.n.n. poll was interesting it said he had fifty three percent approval rating it doesn't really surprise me the thing that i think is. more interesting is that most people think the country's going in the wrong direction that we have serious problems that washington's not really addressed to get elected i think he got elected because we didn't really have a real candidate on the other side who would engage him on foundational issues and i think mitt romney again a very nice person i think is a great guy i like him personally a lot. there was a lot of fight there i mean

a lot of was fighting on every level had a huge support in the media he was he had hollywood behind him all your pals there in hollywood i love obama so he looks like i want to be with the fun guy last week of obama you said he is in washington yet he talks about washington thoughts about you know sort of in the manager yes yes and yes he the president will give speeches and say washington's dysfunctional washington is not getting the job of the republican president bush that reagan's job remember obama is now in a second term and president obama was elected in part i think because people thought he could bring people together and that was really part of the change poster was going to be a new tone and really until recently even democrats were grousing that the president really was an engaging on capitol hill that he really wasn't he doesn't want to burrow into the details he is that's not who he is and so for him to now say well washington's broken well well he's been here for the last four or five

years and if president bush admin saying that i'd say the same thing about him frankly i mean he's part of the answer or not so that's that's what i was trying to get at laura ingram to flee the smart. to be glorified as a bold stance on immigration we should really have a handle on who's here and why. i believe that i think the country is in a rich by immigrants i think we always have been my family is from poland austria and my mom's side of the family. there's room for a little immigrants exactly so i'm all about i have three immigrants living in my home i have three children who are from other countries so i'm on the russian one were to russia that's like a joke to russians i'm going to mali. so. i believe in immigration as a really important to our country and i always will but what's happened since one thousand nine hundred six after reagan's amnesty has been basically uncontrolled borders that have resulted in american wages in part stagnating or actually

dropping in some sectors and so what i believe is that to really make the country strong the border has to mean something otherwise just forget the border i mean don't waste all this time talking about the border the border has to mean something and being in america has to mean something and it can't be that anyone who manages to sneak across the border is suddenly an american i don't believe that i think it's an insult to people who went through the legal process to get here who are amazing people and i think it's also it's bad for assimilation purposes and we know it's bad for the economy so my view is that we should have a revamped immigration system that streamlines the process for people who really want to buy into our values buy into the system contribute not be a burden to the system and people who believe in in the ethic of america i think that's important but i do think illegal immigration is a huge problem and vehemently against this so-called comprehensive immigration bill . and the rubio congress opposing usable absolutely i've read the whole bill and so

. there's a lot of the over the. thing there accor was bipartisan and that was wrong well there are a lot of things that are bipartisan. there's a couple of thing all the a lot of things but every every amendment i think with the exception of two to toughen enforcement and to remove the discretion that people like janet politan department of homeland security would have all. all of that was basically rejected the bill as it moves through the senate is basically the same bill that the gang of eight came up with eight hundred sixty something pages so the bill basically gives way too much wiggle room to bureaucrats to dismiss admissibility requirements enforcement measures basically if someone wants to come into the country of jenna politan or thinks well it's it's a hardship for them not to be here she's going to do that and i think that's wrong and i think that's a big part of the problem with this bill i also think ultimately the bill will give

preference to foreign workers in certain sectors of the economy and that's one of the amendments that orrin hatch the excessively push through in the late late hours of the world until he's for the bill and he all these high tech people and company they put a lot of pressure through lobbyists in washington and they got their language and they basically don't have to give american workers any type of advantage over foreign workers or anything should do rubio's. i think he's probably going to have one. you know politician in america you know he probably is and i think i i was the first one to put marco on national radio i supported him when he was twenty one points behind charlie crist and part of the reason i believe why marco rubio is in the senate and i like him very much i think he thinks we have to quote do something and i think links yeah i think we do and we have to force our laws and i absolutely

think we have to do something but i don't think it's this bill i think that's a glib way of dealing with a really complicated issue with politics republicans are not. removed from. the latino population is going to a president smart politically well that may be a calculation i think it's the wrong calculation because if you're going to play a bidding war for various constituency groups the democrats will always be able to outbid you i mean let's say hillary clinton. as the nominee for the democrats and twenty fifteen larry and maybe rubio is the nominee for the republicans hillary is going to say to a latino audience this man wants you to wait till twenty twenty two or whatever it is thirteen years from now twenty twenty five to become citizens he wants you to wait you're here working i will make it my priority to make you citizens tomorrow when i'm president of the united states what is rubio going to say that. well i do get more votes than romney so what romney could have won

a historical level support from latinos he still would have lost the election because romney didn't energize his base in the rubio will definitely demoralize the base of the republican party by supporting this but i think you're right that's his calculation if i look at. your party's trip you know i think they said that about reagan too and i think they said that the country changed country move on conservatism was fifty nine hundred fifty s. and it's old hat i understand that argument i just think it doesn't matter to me because i haven't i haven't had a logical point of view i have a set of ideas that i believe are right and i believe are best for human freedom i believe the best for women and men in new immigrants blacks and whites and so the fact that people say well the country is changing well it just means that conservatives have to do a much better job of selling their ideas and their people and their views to actually changing shit oh i don't believe foundational view should change i believe that you have to find people who are really smart and committed to them and that

will and will not compromise them away at every turn you changed over the years but i didn't like you before and i like you now so i guess that changed some of my ship you know. we may not come but you know when. it's all bipartisan larry lord. of the women in the boat. talking about the same story doesn't make it news new samana view. no case is. it possible to navigate the economy with all the details and to stick to misinformation and media hype to keep you up to date by decoding the mainstream

status if in your right. you know how sometimes you see a story and it seems so you think you understand it and then you glimpse something else you hear or see some other part of it and realize everything you thought you knew you don't know i'm tom hartman welcome to the big picture.

here is mitt romney trying to figure out. that thing that. i'm sorry i missed the guy who cares about. you sorry. you know what that is my cell. phone wants us to defeat terrorism the olympics the christmas. really. you know they are going to distract us from what you and i should care about because they're a profit driven industry that sells a sensationalistic garbage he calls it breaking news i'm happy martin and we're going to break this that.

we're back with laura ingram and that's true about other women inside the beltway you know when you're a star the women there are all the women and i don't know i don't i don't know the script is and i like her a lot she's an old friend and she she i have a kind of a different approach on something that you like but i look i know i like and i was great on your show she's been on she was on larry king on me and then many times you know hillary clinton she is a formidable force and look out twenty sixteen look out for. the prepared republicans meghan mccain. you just saw it with her do you know it was like it was a nothing thing and she's fundament she's got a liberal republican that's a big world you know many of them. i think there are a lot of people think liberal republicanism will win and when it starts winning i'll be impressed. really classy always always always liked her always had an enormous amount of respect for her and just a classy classy individual nancy pelosi. well i'm not going to do my nancy pelosi impersonator but there was someone on saturday night live is that i just did the

best one ever but i have to do that in the next you refused to do it over to the right well larry i don't. i nancy pelosi. i like i like the fact that she's married to paul pelosi i like him well he's a great guy he's whole larry i like. you just as she sleeps with a gavel though i will say that she has a huge gavel and that's what you know when paul traveling so it's well why don't we all we all live a security but whatever turns. hillary i'm been garson she said put it the way. she said put it away when she. gets it so what does it mean why does it matter larry why does it matter that's what she said she screamed. that it will continue to be a problem we have for americans that it's not clear who it was that night is now out of the republicans can't run on that but i think it's a sense of competence fairness what was going on that night. i think so

i think especially with what's happening with the stuff on capitol hill with the party being splintered chris christie a lot of people might think he's not washington and that's good do they still blame him for the discourse he made obama with it was kind of annoying or you got to admit right or it was always the hope was just fine but it's kind of going overboard i mean i thought i was going to jump into a bomb of laughter that would have been a hope that obama might not have made it to the polls still talking to do they agree with the. don't know jew you know i don't i don't think i've pronounced on that i don't know i don't want to see you on i don't have a view on every issue and i'm not running for office so i don't have a view on every single issue it's really not my focus on my show and i happen to have a sense i hate to hate saying that hasn't had a lot of close friends who are gay and we talk about this and it's funny a lot of people say disclosures and be home until who i'm sure described as a lot of things that are inaccurate what was your thing to say was completely

unfair but this is what happens is people say you're this or that to try to demean your point of view and that is just as hateful and that is just as negative and that is just the stereotyping. and they allege that other people are about them when you try to tell people who are good people who maybe they're christian people maybe the muslims in this is their heartfelt belief not because they hate people because this is what their faith teaches them then to lecture them. and to try to sort of make them feel like they're less human because they believe what they believe i think that's really toxic to democratic society i'm a roman catholic and i believe that you know marriage is between a man and a woman that having been said i think people should be able to get benefits respected and everyone should be treated with dignity and when i was i was not i was in college and i was editor of conservative student newspaper and. you know i was eighteen nineteen twenty twenty one and know a lot of high jinks going on at dartmouth college but we're making

a point back then about you know whether sexuality shouldn't be part of the discussion i mean i don't really care what people do in their private lives i just i think people should be respected but it's not it's not what i believe if i believe it's really a relationship but then i'm not an expert i like talk about this and i'm not married so i don't feel like i can you know really pronounce on this as many others can but i do believe that people should be respected and i think that people should be able to have protections and health care and visitations and whether you call it a civil union or a marriage i don't i don't think that really going to the only group. for children to get to. the story in a school discussion for the doctors you should see. the difference you're sure yes i'm single and i decided to adopt children you know i

think i was just called to do it people asked me that and i think was there some a perfectly i don't know i just it sounds. like the holy spirit i don't i it just came to me like i have a lot of means i'm very fortunate very blessed and i always was i felt good with kids and i thought i could offer something to the children who were abandoned and i went through a long process i tried to message adoption didn't work out and then i had spent a lot of time in russia as a student and spoke. the russian language and also central america spent a lot of time in el salvador and guatemala russia just i work for the system and it's awesome awesome. and want to write so. well there are some of the reporters who are sort of jumped when they saw me and barking commands in russian and they didn't jump on you know some of them are cute that they're so real that that's an issue after a show when you marry if you met mr right course you hope totally hoping for

breast cancer you have a year or so i just got through the eight year mark so. far of your money am i just had my appointment couple weeks ago so i think so you know everything's. great she's she's amazing and i think she inspired a lot of people to just get checkups which is you know i'm always lecturing my listeners to make sure you get you know your regular checkups and take care of your health so i'm sort of media questions that go been stored want to know if you do go over the given the chance. i will not answer that question i love i love hosting for bill and when he's out it's really fun but i have bills not retiring to be like someone saying i'm going to take over larry king's i mean you know you and i are you know plenty of cool but no no no no no. no i mean i'm not saying i want to do it but he's not retiring or feel like saying what i want to be governor i'm not saying oh yeah. ok waiting for this show to a game called if you only knew what

a first person you kissed. yes. peter whole you fourteen you would can you afford to be i mean i'm one of the you know meaningful you know peter on school with i want to say i feel like i'm a guy and you know many gynecology of whatever reason but you know in the. kind of pathway. you know he's wildly successful software. executive in massachusetts yes and we still talk is that good from. obama i guess i. kind of that's so obvious about two thousand and sixteen dream ticket. there is no one right now is a dream to you know not really. i don't know the idea i just want to see how it plays out i mean i think if i say something it'll be. there's no america. that

you're currently in one of the current crop i mean we have a lot of what i want to see how a lot of these people deal with immigration arming the syrian rebels which were apparently going to do. i want to see how people decide you know actually deal with those issues and i'm going to wait and see if people i like larry i like i like ted cruz i like rand paul i like him a lot and i think chris christie will be interesting to watch cruz is a little over the top over the top of everyone's a little bit tough when you push him in the air with it is that what it does is a little ever i'm a little over the top so i made a dream ticket i mean. this is now i know your favorite all time books. favorite all time book. i just read it so i'm going to say this because it's and i went back and read the godfather because i'm poor and over the years oh my god it is so it is one and two are my favorite movies but the book it still blows away the

movie so i'm going to say that now at the top my last but i loved the book but now it's perfect now it is perfect but the book is where just like great gatsby i mean people running the great gatsby and it's kind of like a carnival but the book is so much better was the thing that pisses you off the most. people who want to shut down debate demean people with with names and not continue the conversation to be used to parker's hate and we're all hypocrites. they don't sit still as the outs terrible but we're all flawed i mean i'm the i always say this to my radio audience don't look for me to be a role model i'm the last flawed person out there i'm impatient do you have a role model for. a role model today yeah i do a dear friend of mine who believe it or not is very different from myself she is a mother of ten children. and she makes life fun every day for her family she lit up she's and she's smart she has great common sense friends and
