amanda had sought emergency protective orders in courts and it was awarded that order.protection when she was murdered. after the order was initially instituted, there were subsequent violations and court proceedings that required them to order him again to do things like give up his weapons which he failed to do, obviously, because according to what the police say, he murdered her and he did it in an ambush style, early in the morning as she prepared to leave her home inside of a gated community. >> this is what i don't understand, dale emmons. since there was a protective order in place against him, steve nunn -- >> right. >> what was he doing with weapons? why did they let him off the hook because he's governor's son? >> i don't think it's accurate to say they let him off the hook because he was the governor's son. they ordered him not to have weapons. he agreed not to have weapons yet he violated the order. unfortunately, the circumstances we now find ourself in is amanda has been murdered and he's been he's been charged with murder and we're going to have a trial.

. >> amanda, let me get you in on that. interesting polling with the president when it comes to independents. this article on politico talked about how people are turned off by the tone between democrats and republicans and may find comfort in being independent voices. >> well, polls do show that. they show that even more so voters are unhappy with republicans. this necessarily doesn't mean this satisfaction won't work toward republicans. i mean, a big difference between now and 1994, in 1994 health care failed. it hasn't failed yet. democrats and obama have learned from 1994 and say we're not going to let it fail. the question isn't, are we going to be health care? it's going to be, what is this plan going to look like? voters want to see something happen. >> matt,@interesting the point amanda makes. people want to see something happen. the president said the people have seen the movie before. some people believe the republicans are standing in the way and being the quote/unquote party of no so they can have a sequel to th

amanda carpenter says it is bizarre not to be. amanda, this is not just a fox a fixation? >> this has been a long fixation, and one of the first to raise issues about it is senator robert byrd, who considers himself an expert on constitutional issues, and he wrote a letter earlier this year, worrying about the authority that these czars were taking from the congress. just yesterday, a number of moderate republicans wrote a letter expressing similar concerns. that was written by susan collins, and she says that these czars are taking to put the authority, and she made some of the same arguments that robert byrd did, that they are taking on a centralized aspect of it, and she said basically in this letter, listen. we have cabinet officials, but we do not know how to deal with these czars, had the biggest example that keeps coming up is carol browner, the so-called energy czar, he was involved with negotiating -- who was involved with negotiate, and steven chu was busy handing out stimulus dollars. neil: there is someone else who wants to get to the bottom of this, but robert

the judge's order goes on to say amanda would be best served by exposure to different points of viewt a time in her life when she must begin to critically evaluate multiple systems of leaf and behavior. wall st. journal columnist william mckern joins the panel along with naomi schaefer riley who edits our houses of worship. bill, you followed this case and other child cases like this. how can the state, take somebody -- take somebody out of being homeschooled and force them into public schools if they are not a trot? student that's what people are asking. it grows out of a messy divorce with parents have been split about education. the mother has been homeschooling a child readers and the father has always disliked it primarily seems because he thinks it doesn't socialize her well and so forth. what makes it extraordinary is the line of reasoning that both the concept of education, go to public school to have your faith challenged and so forth, and the judge can make a ruling on this point. judges i think frequently in these cases have to choose between parents. i'm told also that in
