9:42 am
>> pauley: could bad language possibly be a good thing? our contributor faith salie swears it's true. and, yes, parental guidance for what she's about to say is advised. the smartest bleep bleep in the room? you may be right based on a recent study. researchers found that people who curse a lot are more intelligent. contrary to the negative stereotype that folks who swear have poor vocabularies, a fluency in taboo language correlates with overall verbal fluency. the more words you know the more you know. the more colorfully you can express yourself with nuance, metaphor and emotion.
9:43 am
and women in this experiment swore in equal measure, so let's hear it for the ladies. there is something to all of this. i definitely feel dumber now that i'm the mother of a 2-year-old and 4-year-old. i thought it was sleep deprivation, but now i understand it's because those adore little "bleep" have been sabotaging by iq. every time i say sugar and fudge little neurons in m brain probably die. my husband is a graduate of two ivy league universities with a degree in classics and he sounds like a david mamet character when i hear him on a business call. >> you know your business i know mine. your business is "bleep." >> perhaps should not be annoyed at my mother-in-law when she uses the "f word" in front of my children. grandma, a phd is trying to enrich their lexicon to go to fine schools. also, cursing makes you feel
9:44 am
they could bear it. when they were encouraged to swear up a storm they were able to keep their hands under water 73% longer. even shakespeare acknowledges the power of the profane when he has caliban in "the tempest" declare you taught me long and my profit on't i know how to curse. now if you'll please excuse me i have to wash my mouth out with soap. it's gonna taste like >> we're going to go live -- >> pauley: family matters with columnist maureen dowd. >> my own little basket of deplorables. senator richard burr. he's been in washington two decades. and burr's got plenty to show for it. like the hundreds of thousands burr's taken from oiand energy companies. and the billions in tax breaks he's voted for them.
9:45 am
and gas stocks. big oil profits? so does richard burr. but in two decades, what's he done for you? league of conservation voters is responsible for the content of this advertising. i did not email any, um, classified material. really? the fbi said there were 110 classified emails that were exchanged... hillary lied. and another lie? i reect thsecond amendment. but behind closed doors, hillary told liberal elites... the supreme court is wrong on the second amendment. hillary will lie about anything to get elected. the nra institute for legislative action is responsible for the content of this advertising. robert kearney: i fought for my country in kosovo and iraq, and i've been a republican all my life. but i'm the father of three girls. i can't stand hearing
9:46 am
and strong, in a nn where they're valued and respected. donald trump's america is not the country i fought for. so, i'm voting for hillary clinton. hillary clinton: i'm hillary clinton and i approve this message. we count on them to show up for us. now buck newton wants to be our top law-enforcement officer, but he failed to show up in the state senate. buck missed nearly one out of five votes, ized for missing tax deadlines. his business was dissolved. there's too much at stake to make buck newton attorney general. this buck stops here. >> pauley: maureen dowd of the "new york times" has plenty to say about clinton versus
9:47 am
found she can't please everyone. as she reveals video to mo rocca in a round of questions and answers. >> do you read the comments? >> never. >> and not looking at reader feedback is probably a wise decision, if you're "new york times" columnist, maureen dowd. >> i'm always making one side or the other angry. i'm really kind of shy and introverted but when i write it has to be a tougher part of myself because that's my job. >> and campaign has been hitting both sides. hard. sheik excoriated hillary clinton for her long pattern of ethical slipping and sliding. as for donald trump and his performance in last wednesday's debate. >> my social security, payroll contribution will go up as will donald's assuming he can't pick out how to get out of it. what we want to do to --
9:48 am
goad him into calling her a nasty woman when e was discussing the intricacies of social security and taxes was a triumph of psychological warf warfare. >> dowd's new book "the year of voting dangersly" includes thny of her columns and none of e comments. do you not read the comments because you think they would hurt your feelings? >> oh, they would hurt my feelings. when i was a little i was i actually thought that if someone said something mean to you it would get in your bloodstream and it would be like leukemia and you would die. >> she may not heed her comments, but peg dedowd does. always at the ready to stick up for her little sister. >> no one better say anything to me about maureen. >> i read all of her comments. >> and? >> and i get very angry sometimes.
9:49 am
they take one ofyours, you go to the mattresses. >> this is dowd's 9th presidential campaign but this time around, she says, the national mood is uniquely terrible. >> there have been a lot of stories that couples are breaking up all over the coun country. >> a friend of mine, hiswi said to him, they have been married for over 20 years, seriously if you vote for trump i will divorce you. >> right. >> have you ever seen anything like this? >> no. >> people feel very intense that if donald trump gets elected we're going to have the zombie apocalypse. my siblings feel just as stronglyhat if hillary gets in there will be the abyss. >> he he is sort of the law and order sibling? that's right, many's brother kevin a rock-ribbed republican who occasionally takes over his sister's column to hurl slabs of red meat at her defenseless readers. >> particularly like the comments that me in afterwards.
9:50 am
>> i keep a scrapbook of them. >> yes, he's voting for donald trump. >> trump is not my first, second or third choice. but trump represents change. >> so does maureen's sister, peggy, she bodies change. >> we were goldwater girls. >> she cast her first vote for conservative barry goldwater. then made her way left with jimmy carter. then tacked right again r reagan and both bushes. this election she's leaning tr b >> she went to cuba for a vacation and fell in love with che guevar and turned communist for three days. anything can happen. is. >> you're a pretty solid conservative but had this dalliance with communism. and s. >> and you were bernie sanders voter. >> i didn't vote for obama. >> maureen dowd grew up the youngest of five in a tight-knit irish catholicamily in washington, d.c. her father averages police
9:51 am
that augus body in some of their leg august moments. >> he had the worm's eye view, so these politicians were not trying to impress him. and my brothers were pages there as well. they would see the nitty-gritty. they would see senators come in the morning drunk. then other senators' wives would be calling saying, where's my husband? , you know, because there was hot of he days. my father tended to judge politics on whether they seemed toe good people. although he was a democrat. >> indeed dowd's columnocuses lesson policy and more on the person. you've heard the charge that you and your legions o imitators, by focusing so much on character and personality have trivialized the process. >> i think it's just the
9:52 am
or vietnam or iraq, if you look back, those decisions were made on the basis of the president's personality or personal demons. >> dowd met donald trump in the late 1980s and admitted early this campaign that covering him might mean, he would send out one of his midnight mordant tweets about me. something like, she started as a three now she's a one. >> i knew thatwe because i would be honest and he tweeted that i was a neurotic dope, i was whacky and crazy. so i was very hurt, because i thought he could have come up with something much more customized. spent more time on it. like elizabeth warren has pocahontas. i was very hurt. >> like about a banshee. >> that would have been perfect. >> she's been writing about the
