right. >> .them, of adolf hitler, which is a terrible comparison i think.e, i've met george bush. he's not adolf hitler, but when you see obama with a bone in his nose and dressed in a loincloth, yyu're saying, this guy is a primitive. >> right. >> he's an animal. he's not a developed person. he's not a civilized person, and that, i think, is worse. >> and they'd be never saying the same thing if he were an anglo president. has, has he been a good president for the black community mr. bond? >> yes, but he's not een a everything black people want. and there are many black people that say, gee, i wish he'd done more. but he's a president whom i think about 94% of black people would eagerly vote for again. >> you do believe that. >> oh yeah, and i will too.3 >> yeah. tell me about what he has community wished he had done. >> well, maybe it's what he did do that i wish he hadn't done. >> well, either way. >> when he called.. [laughter] .when he said that the policeman in boston, who in ú&mbridge -- >> this is skip, skip gates. >> this is skip gates. yeah. when

if he was comparing president obama to adolf hitler, this is shocking. country western singer hank williams, jr. made the same comparison last year and was fired. >> come on, come on. it would be like hitler playing golf with netanyahu, okay? >> santorum says he wasn't pulling a hank williams, jr. a reporter asked santorum at the was making a comparison between hitler and president obama, and santorum said this. >> of course not. the world war ii metaphor is one i've used 100 times in my career. if he wasn't comparing president obama to hitler he should explain who in the hell he was talking about. senator, could we have a name tonight? can you get one of your press people to put out a release and tell us exactly who you were talking about? rick santorum rarely takes responsibility for extreme rhetoric. last month at a town hall meeting an audience member called president obama a muslim. santorum had nothing say in response. >> he is an avowed muslim. and my question is why isn't something being done to get him out of our government, he has no legal right

he said it was "the most dangerous summit for the west since adolf hitler met with met 1938."question, has newt gingrich overstated his role in the reagan administration? pat boone. >> first, that's an outrageous comment, where i was with ronald reagan right down there in lofty house. and -- and that the comment this compare this to munich was outrageous. gingrich's comment. but look, in the reagan white house, newt gingrich was considered quite frankly by a lot of folks to be something of a political opportunist and who was not trusted and who had played no role whatsoever. he was a rockefeller republican in the great goldwater battle, where conservativism came of age. i do think this, though. newt has been pounded managers leslie, had people he worked with basically turn on him and dump on him down there in florida, which somehow i think may have had some role in the fact that the great fighter and battler of south carolina had no fight in him whatsoever in the monday and thursday debatesç in florida. he let mitt romney punch him silly. and he has lost all his momentum. and

who he later said was not adolf hitler.romney has come forward claiming the president has a secular agenda ha has hurt religious freedom. so clearly this is not over. ed henry is live at the white house tonight. ed, what's going on here? >> well, when you talk to senior officials here in the administration, they seem somewhat surprised that republicans like rick santorum have been focusing on some of the side issues when the administration believes that what voters care most about would be jobs and the economy. and that's why, again today, we saw the president taking a victory lap, basically over that payroll tax cut extension and telling congress he wants them to pass even more of his jobs bill. take a listen. >> instead of spending the coming months in a lot of phony political debates, focusing on the next election, i hope that we spend some time focusing on middle class americans and those who are struggling to get into the middle class. we have a lot more work to do. >> and the administration will focus more on substanc

doing that bad old number of comparing his opponent to adolf hitler. how many wild things can you say before people think you're the wild thing? or suddenly think tame old mitt romney may not be so bad. >>> plus shouts and whispers. republicans are saying out loud what was once unthinkable. that mitt romney might lose michigan and leave santorum as the likely nominee. the whispers of drafting another candidate at the tampa convention is getting louder. for president obama, poll numbers are rising. the bad news, so are gas prices. could this be the issue republicans are looking for. and art imitates art. the first family as characters in the old "cosby show." if you missed it on "saturday night live" this weekend, we have it in the sideshow. >>> finally, what happened 50 years ago that got us headed to the moon? we begin with rick santorum. mark halperin and susan million here with me. she writed for u.s. news and world report. here's rick santorum speaking at the christian alliance luncheon in ohio on saturday. certainly he knew his audience there. he

. >> you may have heard this weekend that rick santorum compared barack obama to adolf hitler. >> americafrance fell to december of '41 and did almost nothing. we think well, you know, it will get better. he is a nice guy. after awhile, you found out some things about this guy over in europe and he is not so good of a guy after all. >> richard, let's not -- hitler was a lot of things? but nice guy? how many people watch this guy: and said you know what? he sounded like a sweetheart. what part of the obama administration is like a siege on europe? is this a healthcare thing? because that's about offering a birth control option at no extra charge. a blitzkreig, when asked about it santorum defended his comparison. >> you use it 100 times? then it's okay. >> that's like the time i got pulled over by a cop and said, why are you so bad now? every day, i drive this highway going 150 miles an hour throwing kittens out my sunroof. >> that's just who i am kitten-throw erlich. stop comparing things to hitler unless the

over the years mormons baptized an untold number of dead people including anne frank, adolf hitler, joseflin. various presidents of the united states and more recently barack obama's mother. elie wieseleid told me today that he got a call from a mormon official who apologized and told him this will not happen again, at least to elie wieseleid's family. >> my family's name all together for all the time to come. but really, to put us in the same category as stalin and hitler -- >> joining me is now is the woman who uncovered the information that sparked the controversy. a former member of the mormon church helen radke. thank you for joining us tonight. >> my pleasure. thank you for inviting me. >> was elie wieseleid's understanding that an ending of this practice, at least in regards to holocaust surviving jews had been achieved with the mormon church, but you seem to have found information indicating that at least to some extent the process was still going on. >> yes. i've been tracking records for holocaust jews in mormon databases since around august 1999. that was roughly four years aft

upon that action adolf hitler ordered a shoot on sight order to the wolf packs that were patrolling the north atlantic. but the american people knew about it. and it was not a spur to them to get involved in the european war even though this was war was, in fact, going on, naval war was going on in the north atlantic. and, of course, roosevelt in kind ordered naval ships to defend themselves against the u-boats. >> there wasn't any impact? >> no. not on public opinion. >> political. >> right. the lucetania wasn't the spur to get us into world war i either. >> well, and in some respects we forget over a period of time japan was already at war in craze from '37. >> yeah. >> they had been four years. >> right. they went into china, invaded china in -- >> and then we're at two years and three months with germany and europe. >> right. >> so it's not totally isolation in that, it's just we don't want to get involved. >> we're aware of it, we just don't want to get involved in it. >> right. >> especially committing actual manpower into combat positions. >> yes, down here in the front. if you'l

named jean marie louret who died back in 1985 believing he was the only son of the one and only adolf hitlerdistinction. but now there's some renewed attention to some evidence out there. they've looked at blood type. they've looked at handwriting p. they believe this guy could be the one and only son of hitler, who died back in 1945 at the age of 56. it's inconclusive just yet but certainly fascinating to look into. we have to wonder a little bit what that moment must have been like if indeed you found out your dad was hitler. take a look. >> no. i am the father. >> no. no. it's not true! that's impossible! >> search your feelings. you know it to be true. >> no! no! >> pretty accurate description? >> may have gone something like that. i'm just hypothesizing here. but the guy died in '85. anyway, interesting family tree there. >> he wrote a book about it. they're going it try to rerelease it, too. >> interesting. >>> okay. so "wall street journal" has proof that being a woman is more than just a pain in the butt. it's like literally a pain in your whole body. they're saying that a lot of the

destruction to be put in the hands of a maniac would killing the german scientist working for adolf hitlerhuman cloning or how we develop, how we develop the "v" rocket? that could have ended up changing the balance, killing those people is that terrorism or necessary sensible policy? why is everything that happened in egypt and libya, how do we support those people? were they terrorist killing members of the government, the government killing gaddafi government? they are going up against a government that killed millions of people. the regime in iran make gaddafi mubarak and assad look like -- not so bad. >> eric: finally mr. mayor, what do you want the administration to do? what do you want this country. >> i want this administration to get realistic and tough about iran. stop the nonsense about talking to them. hillary clinton told him to his face he was naive. they don't want to talk to you. they want to hear you are tough and capable of attacking them if necessary. not that you sit there and labor over it but you're willing to do it to stop them becoming a nuclear power. he should say

the comments there, a, did not he had to explain he was not comparing president barack obama to adolf hitler the other day he had to say no, he wasn't questioning whether he is a christian. he had to explain comments on birth control, contraception and pre-natal testing. he will be in arizona later today. the primary and in michigan one week away. rick santorum and three other candidates right here at our debate tomorrow. >> what is your take? are santorum comments resonating with the voters? >> it seems so, at least among republicans. this is the latest daily trackitrack po poll. ten points ahead of mitt romney. that is the largest lead. go to the next screen, this is interesting. who has the best chance of beating president obama in november? republicans think definitely mitt romney rather than rick santorum. kyra? >>> paul steinhouser, thanks so much. mitt romney may be losing steam in some polls but courting voters and burning through cash. joe johns is in shelby township, michigan will romney will speak an hour from now. joe, michigan is romney's home state, how can he keep it going --

. >> maybe josef stalin said that, maybe adolf hitler said that in the past when faith was eliminated faith is eliminated in china still today. that's not the america that you know and i know. and the reason you went to law school and i went to law school and why my father fought in world war ii and your relatives fought in vietnam and -- is that our america? megyn: you know, the timing is interesting because david axlerod who's one of the top, or he is president obama's top political adviser has just come out and spoken to this rift between the catholic church and the white house and said it's time for people to, quote, lower our voices and get together on a way to phase in this new policy. i mean, it's, basically, it's happen, now lower our voices. what do you make of that comment in light of this dispute? >> that's chilling to make, that's chilling speech. that's chilling the worship of the faith you choose to worship. what the catholic faith is saying is that they have a theological, ecumenical, a moral, a natural objection to obamacare's mandate that bishops and priests be involv

they chanted free syria and held posters depicting the president and adolf hitler. >>> president obamaill submit his 2013 budget to congress. it is likely to get a chilly response from republicans. the budget calls for the so- called buffet rule which would make americans that make more than $1 million a year pay at least a 30% income tax rate. some republicans have called the proposal class warfare. >>> on tuesday vice president joe biden will meet with chinese vice president at the white house. the two leaders will also meet with president obama and other senior administration officials. now poll lowing the washington, d.c. visit the chinese vice president will travel to los angeles. he is widely expected to be the next chinese president. >>> nelson mandela being honored by the south african treasury. the announcement was made on the 22nd anniversary of his release from prison. the south african treasury has not announced when the new money will go into circulation. >>> two young boys killed by their father has been laid by rest by their friends and family. hundreds of people attenne

you get up to a podium and say i think adolf hitler was greatly misunderstood and not a bad guy.r rick santorum on a question. no question a win for him and leading in the polls right now is a game changer. what would a loss mean in michigan to mitt romney in home state? would it devastate him and his inevitable status? >> it's a big set back if that happens. huge set back. he has to build a fire wall in michigan. not so much because michigan has enough delegates to put him over the top but it's a perception. politics is more about perception than it is reality. the perception is the reality. and that's why rick santorum, who won three straw polls and/or caucuses and primaries that didn't award one single delegate was on fire all of a sudden because in those three states, even though they didn't have delegate selection, the perception was he is going somewhere. and and that's why romney cannot allow that to happen to him in michigan. >> matt said it's hard for knee see how romney rights the ship if he loses to michigan. no level of spin that can overcome that disaster even if he
