i mike disney and mickey mouse and tinker bell and stuff. i would love a world where it was like disney world. >> but for the past eight months she's been living in a very different world, the jail's female contynement unit where she's held away from other inmalts due in part to the intense media of her case. >> because she's in the news and because of the her charges if you put her back in the potd you don't know how another inmalt will react to what she's allegedly accused of. for her own safety it's better that she's back here. >> she's read the newspaper reports of the her case. >> i used to cry opening these up. i don't anymore. i'm over it. >> because, i'm not this kind of person. this is a person that i'm not. >> prosecutors say moore, who has pled not guilty, befriended the $30 million jackpot winner and coned him out of a large skmar of his fortune and then killed him. the victim, abraham shakespeare, is seen in this home video, shot by moore. >> you get tired of people asking you for money all the time? >> a year ago. since then --

what was amazing about him and he was an innovator you know he never you know when he created mickey mouse he was hugely successful but did he draw it he did you know the original was a very original drawer the first original the very first one but he just looked pretty closely i mean the first well it didn't look clumsy i mean look clumsy now but back then it was it was late it was you know groundbreaking and i think what was amazing about him is that he didn't just keep going doing mickey mouse's then he did a musical cartoon then he did a color cartoon and then he did a feature and that's one of the most amazing things i admired him so much is because he never just did the same thing he kept pushing himself to do the next the reason why i want why i ask you about this now is that i used used to draw us and isolate anything else but it's all i look at the pictures it's all it's all computer animated good it's all computer animated but i do. in the design i work in storyboards i drew pretty much almost every so you still do a lot of drawing every day and then you give it to the computer g

they're listening to what you called the other day the mickey mouse crowd.can't just change because peggy noonan said so. >> that's a tough charge, and i think she may be right. when you look at the commonality, the common nature of the republican party, it's still they keep talking about rape, which is something they ought to stay off of. it's a terrible tragedy, a crime, and why keep talking about it? and this thing about obama, the birtherism, we'll get to it later, more than a third of republicans think he was born somewhere else still. >> the problem -- i mean, bless peggy noonan. she wants to come in from on high and -- >> don't be jealous of another columnist. >> i'm not. i understand her intention, but she doesn't have a clear diagnosis of the problem. 6 out of 7 of the republican presidential primary candidates last year were basically yahoo candidates who believed in any one of these -- >> remind me their names. >> i don't know if i remember, cain, perry, bachmann -- >> santorum. >> trump was in and out. newt gingrich, mr. colonial marxist, mitt ro

they've got their mickey mouse ears on. "politics nation" with al sharpton starts right now. >> thanks, chris. and thanks to you for tuning in. tonight's lead, president obama won. this president has no time to waste and he's using it to push for change on gun control, on immigration, on climate change, on ending the ban on women serving in combat. he's got a full agenda. and it was on full display today. remember all of that bluster from governor romney about undoing wall street reform, letting consumers fend for themselves? yeah, not going to happen. today, the president nominated hits to both the sec and the consumer protection bureau. the message? we're moving forward. anyone guess where we'll be if the other side were in charge? >> what do you want me to tell romney? i can't tell him to do that: he can't do that to himself. >> that chair, that chair was the sill bomb of everything wrong with the gop. an embarrassment on the biggest stage. the gop literally became a joke. wonder where that chair is today? here it is, th

was like, "hello, i'm mickey mouse." [ laughter ] >> jimmy: that's pretty good actually.at robin williams started? >> yes. i am the first person to go to college in my family, and it was because i got a scholarship from robin williams, who made it possible. i went to juilliard. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: good for you. >> thank you. >> jimmy: i'm so happy. i'm so happy for you. >> thank you. >> jimmy: you haven't told robin thank you? >> no. i mean, i sent him a letter when i got the scholarship. >> jimmy: you never met him. >> i've never met him. i had one time where i almost met him. and i keep telling everyone this. i was at a restaurant, and i'm telling someone the story, and i'm not even kidding. robin came in. robin, robin williams came in and sat down next to me and they said, "well, you've got to say something to him. you've got to introduce yourself." and i said, "i'll wait until he's done eating because i don't want to be the crazy girl at the restaurant." and before he finished, he jumped up and left, and i jumped up and i was going to chase after him and

they've got their mickey mouse ears on, they're up to their gimmicks again, kids. it's mickey mouse time all again. that's "hardball" for now. thanks for being with us. "the ed show" with ed schultz starts right now. >>> good evening, americans, and welcome to "the ed show" from new york. now is the time for america to get laser focused on how the republicans are trying to steal the next election. this is "the ed show." let's get to work. >> i think the surprise was some of the turnout. some of the turnout, especially in urban areas. >> forget policy. if you can't win it, just go ahead and rig it. the gop moves to steal elections. first stop? virginia. david corn and charnelle herring tell us if the dirty move could work. the right still can't handle hillary. >> she obviously has an enduring media. >> so the king of the sunday shows bites the hand that feeds him. >> the president's vision for his second term to annihilate the republican party. >> richard wolffee on the republican party's new nerve. >>> democrats just missed a huge opportunity to change the o'countr

let me finish with republicans mickey mouse club. that's what i'm talking about. the place for politics. in my pelvi and bleeding that wasn't normal for me. she said i had to go to the doctor. turned out i had uterine cancer, a type of gynecologic cancer. i received treatment and we're confident i'll be fine. please listen to your body. if something doesn't feel right for two weeks or longer, see your doctor. get the inside knowledge about gynecologic cancers. knowing can make all the difference in the world. let's say you pay your guy around 2% to manage your money. that's not much you think. except it's 2% every year. does that make a difference? search "cost of financial advisors" ouch. over time it really adds up. then go to e-trade and find out how much our advice costs. spoiler alert: it's low. really? yes, really. e-trade offers investment advice and guidance from dedicated, professional financial consultants. it's guidance on your terms, not ours. that's how our system works. e-trade. less for us. more for you. >>> let me finish tonight with this, this mic

they're listening to what you call the other day the mickey mouse crowd. that's who ascended. it can't just change because peggy noonan says so. >> i think she may be right for this reason. when you look at the commonality now, the common nature of the republican party, still to keep talking about rape. something they ought to stay off of. it's a terrible tragedy, it's a crime. why keep talking about it? this thing about obama, the birtherism. we'll get to it later in the show. more than a third of the republicans think he was born somewhere else still. >> bless peggy noonan. she wants to come in from on other high -- >> don't be jealous over columnists. >> i'm not. six out of seven of the presidential primary candidates were basically yahoo candidates who believed in any one -- >> remind me of their names. >> kane, perry, bachman, santorum and mitt romney was the only guy there -- he flirted with this, but he stayed away from it. the house republicans came into power two years ago, tea partiers, they tried to redefine rape. it's not just yahoos out in new mexico or those with

just a little while their message was made plain and then anyone that needed to shop for their mickey mouse slippers or whatever it was was able to do so through pay pal no harm was done to the size it was in the face servers weren't invaded credit card information wasn't taken this isn't it's come to be seen as hacking this is not hacking right so it's more of an inconvenience than causing any. causing among the criminal harm. it's a minor inconvenience all right so now we have this petition in the works right now it's got something like one over one thousand one hundred signatures a need a lot more at the white house is at least a requirement to respond so what do you think is the likelihood of it really being recognized as a form of civil disobedience. at present i think we have. an uphill battle before we really see congress. congress taking this seriously you have to look at this through the lens of history right the c.f.a. that you talked about the computer computer fraud and abuse act was written in one thousand nine hundred six before we had h.t.t.p. protocol so basically when it wa

. >> well, this is like mickey mouse band-aid. a compound fracture.e it -- get at the root of the problem. this is about trying to restrict the ability to own and buy guns for people who are law-abiding citizens. this is not addressing safety or violent crime. gerri: you know, i guess you could run the nation on executive order. as doug was suggesting, but it is nothing i am in favor of. let's move on to a our debt and our nation's crisis with the debt ceiling. we default on february 15th. happy valentine's day. doug come -- doug, do you think we will avoid this or have big problems? >> at think the answer is simple. we don't have a fight or a crisis over the debt ceiling. we have a fight in crisis overspending that causes debt. if the spending or cut and there was an agreement but place on the way to rein in explosive and -- entitlement spending and brought the debt under control, no one would even mention the debt ceiling. the key will be to focus on the real problem, which is the debt. acknowledge solution for anyone not living in budgetary fantasy

so while you're getting a quick divorce the kids can play with mickey mouse. the u.s.ce rate in america is sky high. 50% for first marriages. second marriages 60% to 67% and third marriage, you have learned nothing you should give up, 74% to 74%. and divorces cost between $15,000 and $20,000, which is a huge sum of money. wyman and associates is doing the hotel. can you really do it in three days? that seems awfully quick for a divorce. >> well, we have a lot of prep work we have to do ahead of time. we'll gather all the information, do appraisals on property business valuations, and make sure we have all the information we need gathered and compiled and we bring that with us to the three-day weekend so we can complete the whole thing within the three days. >> cenk: what if you can't get them to agree in three days? >> that's the difference between this idea and some of the others that you mentioned. so the first two days we mediate. i go back and forth. i get to know both parties. i hear all of their issues, and we settle as much as we can. at the end of the two days

so is all of the partisanship that makes our country seem like a mickey mouse place to invest and uncertaintyng forward, every single democratic government on earth seems to be better organized and smoother functioning than ours. that uncertainty caused by that lack of confidence and higher payroll taxes might have something to do with the declines we're seeing. telco was a place to hide back in 2012. at&t and verizon saw slow downs. no let up in the subsidies to apple and samsung, we love these companies because they had no europe last year, no china, no mexico. now we wish they had all three and there was business formation. let's focus on the other half of the equation. it's a little more robust, where the money is going. last night china had one more remarkable session. holy cow, courtesy of new attitude. the gold double digit growth is taking up the fxi. follow along, but it is taking up the ancillary chinese plays, like coach. did you see that today? rallying more than $2. we are seeing steady gains in cummins. totalling chinese demand, truck demand. this one won't stop climbing. i say

about mickey mouse's big brother. "starting point" back in a moment. auto i you taken with the evening meal. and with no dietary restrictions, bob can eat the healthy foods he likes. do not stop taking xarelto® rivaroxaban without talking to the doctor who prescribes it for you. stopping may increase your risk of having a stroke. get medical help right away if you develop any signs or symptoms of bleeding, like unusual bruising or tingling. you may have a higher risk of bleeding if you take xarelto® with aspirin products, nsaids or blood thinners. talk to your doctor before taking xarelto® if you currently have abnormal bleeding. xarelto® can cause bleeding, which can be serious, and rarely may lead to death. you are likely to bruise more easily on xarelto®, and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. tell your doctors you are taking xarelto® before any planned medical or dental procedures. before starting xarelto®, tell your doctor about any conditions, such as kidney, liver or bleeding problems. ready to change you

good news for anyone who cares about fairness in elections and proves that not everyone is in the mickey mouseb in this issue. still, republicans in four other swing states, pennsylvania, ohio, wisconsin, and michigan, are considering similar measures to rig the vote. we'll be right back. >>> it's the end of an era of sorts. late friday fox news announced it is parting ways with one of its star political pundits, sarah palin. palin spent the last few years giving such astute political observations such as these. >> well, first off, nancy pelosi is a dingbat. she is a perfect spokesperson for president obama's democrat party. with all due respect to the office of the presidency, when i hear barack obama speak at this point, especially when he lectures about ethics and civility, it's nauseating to me. >> that's a very scary thought, because barack obama is a socialist. he believes in socialism, in redistributing wealth, in confiscating hard-earned dollars. independent, patriotic americans who desire fiscal santa in our beloved nation being called terrorists, heck, sean, if we were real domestic

well, these are really nice and early mickey mouse slides.ot seven boxes of them, all telling a story. so how on earth did you actually watch them on these funny little slides? well, we used to have a sheet pinned to the wall in front of us and dad rigged up a sort of slide show by using the inside of a toilet roll and cardboard, cut through it and then the slides went through and at each slide, you had a little story to go with the picture. yes. so you'd be propped up, and dad would be saying, "beneath a bright and cheerful sun mickey went out..." right. that's quite right. yes. so when do these date from? about 1939, 1940. at the beginning of the war, when the bombing started, we three children slept in the cupboard under the stairs that sounds comfortable. on the floor. but above our heads used to be books and the toys and the games, all in boxes and when the bombs came, with the vibration everything fell off the shelves and on to us. mum got fed up with pencil sharpenings and things in the bed, so we were all moved to the dining room to s

>> well, of course they're going it play these mickey mouse games.hat's all -- >> within the first hours of the new congress. >> what do you expect, martin? we're talking about michele bachmann. they're going to play these stupid games, but they're irrelevant. last year in 2011 because they were coming off this big victory -- >> actually it was 2012. >> excuse me, in 2011 coming off the big midterm victories, they had some swat. michele bachmann actually, you know, had people listening to her a little bit. now they're in the ashcan of history and they're not coming back because they got all the white voters they could. there are no more of them. so they were operating under the idea that they were the real america and the minorities and everybody else were just visiting, right? that idea is now part of american history. they lost. they're on the losing side of a huge demographic change in this country. things are not going to get better for the republican party anytime soon until they start to recognize where america really is. so the reason i'm not

it makes us look mickey mouse. i don't blame fitch. look, we have to pay bills, the constitution says it, but everybody doesn't seem to care much about the constitution right now. >> i thought yesterday at the president's news conference, i thought the partisanship was at an all-time high in regards to the fiscal cliff debate. they, referring to republicans in congress, they can either acts responsibly and pay america's bills or act irresponsibly and put america through another economic crisis. it feels a little bit worse, markets sort of shrugged that off. that was good news in all this. but it seems like the dividing line is real firm and real deep between republicans and democrats at this point. >> i wonder whether we know anything. one of the things that's gripped me is there was almost universal belief that dividend taxes were going to go up dramatically. even down to the last day of december. you come in, dividend taxes barely go up. i find that, like facebook, which we're going to talk about in a moment, we're not really privy t
