it brought bill clinton and hillary clinton to the white house. after they arrive, there was the announcement about health care. we have a couple of clips to show you that help demonstrate the intention of the first lady's involvement in health care. let's watch. [video clip] >> i'm glad hillary has agreed to share this task force and she will be sharing some of the heat i expect to demonstrate. in the coming months, the american people will learn that we have a first lady of many talents, but most of all who can bring people together around on flex issues to hammer out consensus and get things done. >> as the president said, and as he believed, this is not a partisan issue. it is not an ideological battle. it is a problem to be solved that affects all of us. and i'm looking forward over the next weeks and months to not only working with you, but to watching you craft the most important social policy that our nation will have confronted in many decades. >> a lot of people thought i should not be making recommendations about legislation or that i s

the last time i saw bill clinton and as you know my better half who is a friend of bill clinton ownsjeb bush is a tenant. bill clinton was coming into the hotel. i said, bill, your little brother is not in town but he sends his regards. he knew i was talking about jeb . he said tell him next week i'm stopping by houston and i am going to see his mom and dad. he visits them regularly and i think absolutely he has a very special fondness for george h.w. bush and it is mutual. >> you worked for bill clinton when he was president of the united states and supported hillary clinton's run for the white house. what do you make of the unique relationship? >> i think it should give us hope that after such partisan bickering that we can transcend that. they were at each other's throats during much of the clinton presidency. it shows if you really get together and focus on something bigger than politics and bigger than yourself you can really come together. i think it was an amazing interview. i think barbara bush looks incredible. i thought it was interesting how she straddled the question of j

he worked for both of them years ago in bill clinton's administration and then headed before she was elected senator, the senate first senate campaign for hillary clinton as her campaign manager in new york state. >> uh-huh. john, let's talk a little bit about the role that he has here. he's the first democratic mayor of the city in two decades here. "the new york times" calling him an aserttive tax the rich liberal. but he does need the governor, andrew cuomo and state legislators to make a lot of things he wants to have happen. what does he have the power to do right away? they see it almost as an experiment of new york city, a city of that size, and social policy, the kinds of changes he wants to making >> yeah, that's the key question. i mean, happily for bill deblasio, he was andrew cuomo's deputy when andrew was housing and urban development secretary under clinton. so they have a relationship going a long way back. you cut on the core issue for why his election is being seen as a national bellwether by some hopeful liberal democrats, not only the first democrat in the 20 years

bill clinton was energized by people. got to know clinton very well during his presidency and he really did try to reach out a number of ways. he had a fax. remember fax machines? seek it -- had a fax that he gave out to his friends who could send a note directly so they could tell him what they thought about its policies in speeches and so on. he read them and got back to his friends. i thought that was a positive thing he did. he liked to travel around and there were many times when he did talk to people. he was notorious for being late. part of the reason he was laid all the time was because he was talking to individuals. if you would get to what he considered a private moment he would love to keep talking. a lot of this in the press corps felt like we were waiting for bill clinton all the time. when you did an interview with him and i interviewed him a number of times he benefited from it. if he was engaged in the interview he want to know what you are thinking as a reporter. talk about flattery. when the president ask

. >> it is said that bill clinton wanted to be a great demand. he felt like he didn't have an opportunity for the kind of challenge that might have made him perceive is a great man. >> it is related to war, which in a sense is something not he meant it that way, but unattractive about talking about it. >> nevertheless. >> i think that goes to obama in a sense. he powerfully feels that the formative experience in his life in terms of foreign policy that they shaped his thinking about his term in office is as recent as the iraq war. this is not somebody shaped by vietnam or rwanda. what is shaping him is the notion of disastrous geopolitically and humanistic lee disastrous intervention in iraq. it makes them think many times over about getting involved in something like serial. >> sitting in the chair you sit in now was his former secretary of defense who for that same reason advice and not to go into libya. >> i know. secretary gates advised not to go to libya. and then advised him on syria as well. and, they had differences over osama bin laden.

>> bill clinton. >> paul?is a bigger threat for the denver broncos, wes welker or peyton manning? that's crazy. those two presidents, one current and one former are huge assets. >> are you going to answer the question? >> a silly question. >> no such thing as a silly question. which one do you think is a bigger threat, benghazi, bill clinton or barack obama. >> it's not a threat. >> first of all, clinton and obama are assets. it's a stilly question. >> thank you very much. >> appreciate you both joining us. >> is it intervention time for justin bieber. the embattled teen pop star left miami over the weekend and has since been seen strolling the beaches in panama with his entourage. usher has also been spotted down there. he's posing for a picture with the same fan as justin bieber, but it's not clear if he's in panama for a serious heart to heart with the teen. joining us now is lindsay lohan's father michael lohan. thank you for joining us again on cnn. it's been reported you staged a number of interventions

because bill clinton now has a 71% approval rating. >> i hope it doesn't get all dredged up, because i don't want to relive it. what we ought to concentrate on is hillary care. she has her own swirl of scandals and controversies that we really don't need to be focusing on bill clinton scandals. she is a target-rich environment. we don't need to focus on bill clinton. >> you want to look for the war on women, let's talk about highway did mom jeans, they were not right. >> there was a lot -- lot not right about the '90s. >> like huge, triangle earrings, coming up, a new poll shows that americans lack confidence in the president's ability to make decisions for this country's for which -- future. the majority of americans don't have confidence in him. plus, this billboard just went up in the heart of new york after it was rejected once. we'll report, you decide on the controversy over not just a billboard now but a television ad campaign. >> tonight low prices, i can cross even more places off my travel wish list. this year alone i hit new york... and texas! see, hotwire checks the compe

the bearer of the burden of bill clinton, she's done superbly well. they've also been together for 40 years. and if you make a victim out of hillary clinton, that is exactly the worst thing for any opponent to do. >> well, let me go back to you on this story, because i think there is a question here which we're going to be talking about for months and years now it looks like. the clintons are on the road back to the white house. i think we all assume that. if they choose not to or secretary clinton chooses for all kinds of reasons this isn't what she wants to do, fine. but it's a good bet she is coming back, right? >> yeah. >> they're both coming back. so the republicans have to shoot at the weakest link. what do the animals do in the jungle? i was just over in africa. you go for the smallest one, the one you can kill. i think it's a mistake for this reason. and i also want to ask you this. if you were hillary clinton, wouldn't you do the opposite of what al gore did in 2000? run as a teammate. say look, we're together. i love this guy. he is a good ma

andrew cuomo was hud secretary under clinton. bill deblasio ran hngt hillary clinton's campaign in 2000. these folks are all tight and in many ways there's this ascendcy of the clinton kids now to positions of power that has a fascinating aspect to this whole dynamic. >> susan, the last word. again as a new yorker he talked about a lot of things that he wants to change in new york, some of them very progressive like raising taxes for the wealthy and giving that to the underserved. but he also wants to do some things that are sort of iconic like we talked about this morning, getting rid of those horsen an buggy rides around central park. what is the general feeling about the massive change that he's trying to make there, and do you think that it's really going to come or is he going to get a lot of pushback with the city council and so forth. >> i mean, as always, i guess time will tell. we'll have to see how this all plays out but getting rid of horse carriages? seems like a minor thing but a big thing if you're visiting new york and

bill clinton did. he would come back and talk to us, sometimes for like an hour and a staff would be horrified. what is the president saying? he hasn't been briefed. you just like to chat. one time coming back from australia, air force one has a compartment in the very back where a group of reporters traveled. everybody gets a turn in the press corps. it happened to be my turn coming back from australia with a 22 hour flight halfway through it. the cabin was dark about 2:00 in the morning local time, standing there at the soft drink. everybody's asleep thinking how my going to pass the next 10 hours? bill clinton. he's gone on a t-shirt, jeans, flip-flops. nobody sets in. everybody's asleep including his son's death. so i'm standing there thinking, well, to make up the other press people? the cameras go on or do i just talked to the president myself and bruce mcculloch slater? so what do you think i did? i talk to the president. a half-hour. he talked about the politics of the philippines and he taught

>> bill clinton. >> paul?ich is a bigger threat for the denver broncos, wes welker or peyton manning? that's crazy. those two presidents, one current and one former are huge assets. >> are you going to answer the question? >> a silly question. >> no such thing as a silly question. which one do you think is a bigger threat, benghazi, bill clinton or barack obama. >> it's not a threat. >> first of all, clinton and obama are assets. it's a stilly question. >> thank you very much. >> appreciate you both joining us. >> is it intervention time for justin bieber. the embattled teen pop star left miami over the weekend and has since been seen strolling the beaches in panama with his entourage. usher has also been spotted down there. he's posing for a picture with the same fan as justin bieber, but it's not clear if he's in panama for a serious heart to heart with the teen. joining us now is lindsay lohan's father michael lohan. thank you for joining us again on cnn. it's been reported you staged a number of interventi

then he went to work for bill clinton in hud. and went to work for hillary clinton. both men moved to the center. now, bill de blasio's moment is a moment for the left which allows him more latitude. but i wouldn't say that either philosophically or on pulse there's a huge gulf between these two men or between him and hillary clinton. >> i guess what belies the theory this is driven by politics and a view towards 2016 was the idea if that were the case, it would seem to be a primary strategy, right? that they want an attack towards the left. but i say if she's in, she's really not going to have any primary opponents of significance. is that how you read it? >> not quite. not quite. if elizabeth warren runs, she's a person of significance. she would be a candidate of significance. you know, the depth of passion for her on the democratic party's left side is really quite profound. and so i think hillary clinton knows that. and i also think, you know -- we tend to attribute everything to political calculation. but it's also possible, you know, that hillary clinton and b

insurance is for catastrophes, an encounter with bill clinton. day behavior. >> it is kathleen willy. >> and i know he is a rock star, and people love him, he couldn't even get his vice president elected. ronald reagan served two terms and got that boob of his reelected -- >> oh, boy, go ahead. >> solely on his own magnetism, and al gore's own pollster told "vanity fare" bill clinton hurt his chances. >> all right, so the woman who testified before congress did nothing before, during or after the attack. she screwed up royally on benghazi. what difference does it make? now, obviously, she is running for president because she said this now about benghazi. >> yeah, my biggest you know, regret is what happened in benghazi. it was a terrible tragedy, losing four americans, two diplomats, now it is public, i can say two cia operatives. >> i have a question, what difference does it matter she is saying that now? >> i love it that she says it on msnbc, where the viewers have no idea what she is talking about. they have not mentioned benghazi. biggest re

republican senator rand paul appeared on "meet the press" sunday where he called former president bill clintonarding his affair with monica lewinsky. he said democrats have posed war on women all along and clinton's affair is proof. >> someone who takes advantage of a young girl in their office, i mean, really. and then they have the gull to stand up and say republicans are having a war on women, so, yes, i think it's a factor. >> it's not hillary's fault -- >> but it say factor in judging bill clinton in history. >>> in an interview with a german tv network, nsa leaker edward snowden said he felt there are, quote, significant threats to his life and that government officials would love to see him assassinated for leaking classified documents. >>> and more than 100 hungry runners took part in the krispy kreme dash on saturday. participants had to run the race while eating a dozen doughnuts in an hour or less, all for a good cause, of course. all for eight children's charities. >>> time to get down do business. the morning, "the wall street journal" reports that the faa will or the safety check

it's not hillary's fault -- >> it should be an issue -- >> it is a factor in judging bill clinton in history. >> but is it something hillary clinton should be judged on if she were a candidate in 2016? >> no, i'm not saying that. this was with regard to the clintons and sometimes it's hard to separate one from the other. >> hard to separate one from the other. and all of these years later, what is the strategy here, is this a warning shot? is this rallying the base? what is rand paul trying to accomplish here? >> maybe just getting a little more attention for rand paul. he has quite the knack going on sunday shows and saying something that far over the line that it gets an enormous amount of attention. my mouth dropped open. i think that bill clinton's conduct was reprehencible, he said the media gave him a pass -- >> hardly. >> whether or not you think about that, i do recall going through a house impeachment and senate trial, so it seems to me there is a black mark against him in history. but i thought it's not a factor but it is a factor and you can't separate them. that was a litt

it's ridiculous. >> you basically talked about how bill clinton isn't that unpopular with conservativesow should he? >> well, i mean right now hillary clinton is sort of the punching bag for the right when it comes to the issue of benghazi. that's been the traditional way they've gone after her. this is a novel approach trying to get at her through her husband, and again, the republican base is largely male. they do much better than democrats among men. i'm not sure that this is an argument that resinates with men, first of all, attacking the husband and really when you drill down to the issue with hillary clinton, what happened right after impeachment, you know, besides bill clinton becoming more popular, hillary clinton got elected to the united states senate. she actually became more popular, including with a lot of people who were the traditionalists who saw her staying in her marriage as actually a good thing. is he saying he's now not for people staying in their marriages? i'm really not sure where he's coming from, and again, this is the past, and so far in the past it's not rele

is bill clinton a sexual predator? hannity starts right now. >>> and in less than 24 hours, president obama will lay out his agenda for the next year when he delivers the state of the union address. and joining me right now is fox news' own ed henry. where are the bottom line is the aides are signaling that this will be a bit of a power play. the president will say yes, he's willing to work with congress on some issue bs but he's prepared to bypass congress. i pressed jay carney today on whether that means he would sign the keystone pipeline for example. he said no. the state department is still studying. well, republican leaders responded by saying the state department has been studying that for years now. and they believe that the president doesn't have a god report card from last year's state of the union when he also pushed for immigration reform, gun control, a hike in the minimum wage. he got virtually none of that. and white house officials will push back on it by saying, look, it was republican obstructionism t

i think we're dealing with bill clinton is not in the political discussion today. think her posture is much different -- >> so let's ask this question, because, first of all, i never bring that stuff up in a gazillion years, because it was such an ugly chapter in our history. it's like the iraq war in 2003. there's just some things, we fought those battles, let's let them go. that said -- and hillary -- hillary's probably going to run. if hillary clinton attacks the republican party's handling of women and treatment of women and disrespect for women and suggests they're misogynistic, et cetera, et cetera, it does seem to be a fair question to ask right now a few years out, does the media have a responsibility to say, well, let's see what happened when you were in the white house and how women were treated when you're in the governor's mansion and in the white house, is that fair? >> there's one -- >> by the way, i would never bring it up again. >> right. >> in a gazillion years, but does this not compromise hillary clinton's ability to bash republicans as being ter

bill clinton is who he is. l.b.j. was who he was. we now valorize l.b.j. and what he achieved and somehow what gets lost in that conversation is a disastrous decision to deepen our involvement in vietnam to the cost of tens and tens of thousands of lives. >> rose: and -- >> and the fault of bill clinton were manifest. we needn't go over them and over them. >> rose: he also talks about -- you talk about having friends over. he has a small group of friends. you make the comparison with john podesta who came in as head of the transition and when he did bill clinton there was a huge long list. >> a lot of people needed jobs. >> it felt like their friendship was unique and they deserved a job! >> podesta came in and he was handling the transition and he called president obama and said who needs to be taken care of and the list was short. and podesta said to somebody he really travels light. >> rose: and he's maintained a kind of lightness in the white house in terms of friends. i mean, i think you get the impression -- >> real friends. >> rose: well, yes. >> ch

>> well, i think, you know, bill clinton is both a great asset. he's the great explainer. eone who is going to be very present. he's going to loom over hillary clinton's presidential prospects. on the other hand, he can also be a liability. so i think it's foolish to talk about monica lewinsky. let's talk more about the present. let's talk more about what's happening in recent years. >> paul, you want to weigh in on that? >> i'm burdened by the fact that i know doug bend. he's a terrific guy. no longer works for president clinton, but the notion that you can effectively attack hillary by attacking a guy who used to work for her husband. i think what's going on with rand paul, i don't know if you read it, a major article this weekend about rand paul and soul of the folks politically he's been associated with, who he's in bed with politically but i don't want crass, associated with politically with really eccentric folks like neo-y is significancist, people who don't support civil rights, people who think the south was right in the civil war. >> you guys are -- you guys are g

shows that the footsteps of 2016 are being heard by the clinton family. >> that too. >> well, just that too. also, you know, they're close with bill hillary clinton's 2000 campaign manager when she was running for senate. so they have a long standing relationship with him. but if you do listen to the language of the way he was praising bill de blasio, i think it's so important because he was talking about income inequality that has only become more acute. and as we seen the recession start to ease off in terms of the markets, the housing market, the stock market, it has not just eased off for average americans. that's where i think democrats can really start to exploit this issue or make it an issue that is not just about progressives, but about the middle class. when you're talking about an issue that can be labeled as progressive but instead what is the minimum wage that 57% of republicans think should be raised. 70% of moderates believe should be raised. i think that's when they'll start to see traction on these issues. and the clintons are smart enough to know that. and i think we're starting to see when bill clinton starts to

to her, they were different questions, the questions that senator paul was addressing were if bill clinton's behavior would impact hillary clinton's run -- >> well, he would be the first man, the assumption is he can't be left alone in the room with young women. and then she turns around and suggests it would be horrible if this were a campaign issue. >> she said that in 2006, she reportedly was very sorry she said that. but look, politicians make mistakes, i think this was probably one of them. >> don't tick off the clintons, especially if they have been fundraising for you, it is a little hypocritical. >>> and extreme weather alert in the south tonight where a few inches of snow has paralyzed one of the nation's largest cities, affecting much of the population. the eerie scene here as drivers are stranded in their cars, on the side of the road. hundreds of students forced to spend the night on cold school floors and all of this happening after getting two to three inches of snow, a snowstorm that the city new was coming. tom haynes live in atlanta with the very latest. hey, tom. >> reporte

i love bill clinton. maybe not his politics. >> all right.maybe not his politics, but i love bill clinton. very, very nice words from barbara bush. let's discuss what she said a little bit more with our senior political analyst, ron braunstein, joining us from los angeles. there is a little family rivalry. you probably remember the 1992 election when bill clinton, the challenger, beat the incumbent, george h.w. bush. >> yeah, we know from a terrific book a couple years ago by mike duffy, requests "the preside president's club" bill clinton beat george h.w. bush in a race that was not bean bagged, as the saying goes this politics. and yet they have built a very, you know, personable and productive relationship. barbara bush mentioned the tsunami relief. they are almost exactly the same age. so the idea of clinton seeing george h.w. bush as a little bit of a father figure is not that far-fetched. >> yeah, it's not that far-fetched at all, when you know the history of both of these former presidents of the united states. and it raises the possib

and hillary clinton are loyal friends who reciprocate loyalty and friendship. billlasio was the campaign manager, served in clinton's administration. he was there as a friend. they are progressive democrats and that language and rhetoric and goals make us democrats. it's why my dad loved franklin roosevelt. they are cleaning up snow and it's the potholes. that's the priority. as progressive democrats they share values and goals. >> there are far left comments in the introduction talking about new york being a plantation and so on. the mayor got up -- the guy you say shares the clintons' ideology and says this is the tale of two cities. the exclusive domain of the 1%. that conservatives believe the way forward is to give more to the most fortunate. it's us against the elite in the city. is that what we are going to hear from hillary clinton? i said values and goals. i didn't say everybody agrees as fellow liberals on the means to the goals. bill clinton is not a progressive from the earliest days i knew him back in law school. he balanced the budget when a conservati

not hillary's fault. >> but should be -- >> it is a factor in judging bill clinton in history. >> he n to say you can't separate bill and hillary clinton. do you think bill clinton's behavior, bad as it was and the impeachment process should be an i am pediment to hillary clinton running for office and being elected? >> i think i can speak for most women to say what i found what he said infuriating. most women understand they should not be held accountable for the behavior of their husbands. quite frankly it was a long time ago and our country did very well under the leadership of bill clinton. you know, unbelievable job creation, healthiest economy we had in decades and peaceful times, prosperous times. i think rand paul is grasping, trying to show he can be tough and win the presidential nomination. it was a political posturing and frankly what rand paul doesn't get is that women want birth control. what rand paul doesn't get is that women don't want to be marginalized in the workplace, that we are not yet at the point we need to be in terms of our country and around the world, havi

bill clinton swearing in new york's progressive mayor bill de blasio this week and if clinton now wants with the left, that's probably a sign that liberalism within the democratic party is resurgent. we'll talk about that next. youe rheumatoid arthritis, like me, and you're talking to your rheumatologist about trying or adding a biologic. this is humira, adalimumab. this is humira working to help relieve my pain. this is humira helping me through the twists and turns. this is humira helping to protect my joints from further damage. doctors have been prescribing humira for over ten years. humira works by targeting and helping to block a specific source of inflammation that contributes to ra symptoms. for many adults, humira is proven to help relieve pain and stop further joint damage. humira can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. serious, sometimes fatal events, such as infections, lymphoma, or other types of cancer, have happened. blood, liver and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure have occurred. before st

not just bill clinton. it was the era. ought there by replicans who proposed this in the first place. there were specific requirements, work requirements. there were time limits put on welfare. aren't those a good thing? didn't it change welfare and aren't we going against it now? >> it did change healthcare. nationwide it went down sharply. on food stamps, the time to tighten up, david, is when people feel the economy is moving again. that is tax reform, monetary reform and healthcare reform. >> rich, the fact is tha the reforms they had 1 years ago focused specifically, they had 12 definitions of work. the definitions have been so modified by the obama administration. >> look, we know the system can be gamed and it being game and there is a lot of fraud in there. start with the basic quess. the largest employers in the united states have tremendous amount of cash on the balance sheet. yet, they are t investing for growth. why are they not doing that? they are afraid when they look in the future, there is so much economic

it is the kind of thing bill clinton did address as president when bill clinton was president and in the '90s they did -- increase the earned income tax credit. that's part of who he is. he also has a political interest, like you say. >> i want to bring the panel back in. far it be for me to make everything about the clintons, even though this is deblasio's moment, i dash i want to play devil's advocate. there was an interesting take on what was happening at that inauguration. he's enly said that clinton was not splitting the difference. clinton, as always, was thinking about tomorrow. he want no one listening to he was to split the difference so he offered praise and equal amounts. here is bill clinton actually give thing equal measure of praise. >> i'm grateful to both mayors, mayor bloomberg for his years of service and for the legacy he will leave and to mayor deblasio for his good and caring hands. >> what's your take on that? >> classic clinton in way. it was jarring to people and in part of the reason that -- that comment from bill clinton draws attention is because it was sor

. >> host: during the 90s when bill clinton was president we had the third way. and you are part of that, weren't you? part of the forming of the third way? what was that and is it an effective way to govern? >> guest: i think it's the only way to govern and the most effective. the third way actually is in the united states it was called the new democrats. in great written tony blair called it new labor and in germany schroeder called the new middle. essentially, tony blair actually gave the best definition. he said it's not a compromise between liberalism and conservatism. it's the modernization of liberalism but it's constantly modernizing your government. it goes to the points i talked about and what bill clinton norris talked about were three words, opportunity, responsibility and community. those were sort of the underlying themes of the ideas included americorps welfare reform fiscal discipline. , increasing. and reinventing government charter schools community placing. basically ideas that dealt with concerns people had in their everyday lives. >> host: al

i love bill clinton. maybe not his politics but i love bill clinton. >> mrs. they just don't talk politics. and seattle seahawks richard sherman is apologizing for his rant against the 49ers russell cab tree. >> obviously the heat of the moment everything happens like that. it is what it is. obviously i could have worded things better and could have obviously had a better reaction and done things differently, but it is what it is now. and people's reactions are what they are. >> and now after his coach gave him a little talking to, sherman says he is sorry. in a text to espn he writes: i apologize for attacking an individual and taking the attention away from the fantastic game by my teammates. that was not my intent. and now to college basketball. in the stakes for march madness getting higher. warren buffet and the cleveland cavaliers a billion dollars to anyone who can protectly predict this year's men ncaa bracket. that's right $1 billion. don't get too excited. that fea. >> it is nearly impossible. that's tonight's speed read. thanks for being with us ton

bush bill clinton that all core jon kenneth galbraith forgets all -- gore vidal and naturally given arthur's sense of history groucho marx and savvy davis junior and bianca jagger. [laughter] alexander arthur's wife is not here. to detractors who refused arthur of being being a condescended sizer he wrote if your letter was the product of sincere misunderstanding the facts i have cited should relieve your mind. if not i can only commend you to the nearest psychiatrist. i should note too quickly that arthur had a keen appreciation for two tennessee exports, andrew jackson and jack daniels. as jon sig involve or tom appreciate arthur did not believe that white wine with sufficient given the difficulty

i feel good about the republican field. >> bill mentioned the clinton's. if they proved anything it is that you can survive scandal after scandal after scandal. is that only if you are a democrat or if you have a compelling personality? >> much of your ability to survive a scandal is about who is speaking for you and who is not speaking for you. in chris christie's case when you have republicans like lindsey graham with a tight primary saying don't come to my state of south carolina that is a problem. when you have the manchester union leader in an early primary state saying we are taking this seriously because our voters don't like abuses of power then you have other people in chris christie's camp saying i'm a little worried about you, guy. >> i think that is a fair point. would you concede if democrats in 2014 tell the president please don't come to our state would you say that is also a problem for democrats? >> i think democrats telling barack obama to stay away is a problem for barack obama getting things through congress but that the is not the issu

more then a little bill clinton did in most of us. [laughter] with impulse control. >> host: i write to an advice column and often people will write that you are so judgy. [laughter] said back why did you write to me? but you touch on this idea the devil most prohibited the idea of shame to be ashamed. >> guest: one key statistic the single rate of motherhood may be the wrong switches flipped. >> host: but then you talk about the baby boom generation smith necktie just found this out before us babies were found to under the cabinet. [laughter] your parents having sex no. >> never have been. [laughter] not possibly.

republican senator rand paul appeared on "meet the press" sunday where he called former president bill clintoning his affair with former white house intern monica lewinsky. he argued democrats had to, quote, had the republican war on women all wrong and clinton is proof. >> someone who takes advantage of a young girl in their office, i mean, really and then have the gall to stand up and say republicans are having a war on women? so, yes, i think it is a factor and not hillary's fault, and -- >> but should it be an issue -- >> it is a factor in judging bill clinton in history. >>> in an interview with a german tv network, edward snowden said he felt our significant threat to his life and that government officials would love to see him assassinated for leaking classified documents. >>> authorities in central italy are searching for a relic stolen from a church that contains blood of the late pope john paul ii. police say it is thought the thieves may plan to use it for satanic rituals since the blood would be difficult to sell. >>> the only road leading to valdez, alaska, has been blocked by a p

maybe rand paul missed the news, but bill clinton was impeached in the house. aul is trying to get the country thinking about the bad times with the clintons and the two. joining me now is goldie taylor and josh. great to have both of you with us tonight. goldie, what do you make of this tasteless tack -- i should point out senator paul's comments were a follow-up to his wife kelly who was profiled in an article in vogue. she called bill clinton's behavior predatory and offensive to women. is this the republicans only way to get women's attention in the upcoming election year? >> republicans were really going to have to find themselves a brand-new leading candidate. it looks like rand paul wants to step into that slot as the so-called frontrunner in the gop field. it's an unfortunate strategy he's taken to reach back some 20 years to blame whatever president clinton did in his white house on his wife and try to connect it that way. she ought to be judged on that record and that record alone. he ought to be talking about policy at the end of the day. he should be

how close is bill clinton to the white house both in terms of policy and behavior?uential would he be as a former snth. >> i don't think that's the risk. he is not a president. >> hillary says this is a guy i lean on, i talk to him. campaigns for her. how much does he influence the presidency? >> zachary, you made the point that this needs to be talked about. but it's old news and relevant and part of history, even. again, in the current debate about -- of politics and women and the war on women and the war for women, you're saying it has a place and needs to be in the debate? >> i do think it does. i don't think the most relevant part of that is bill clinton's behavior from 15 years ago. and obviously, this is the early part of the kind of presidential positions and that's where rand paul is coming from on this. i think in general as a society, it would be nice if we were more kind of able to call it out more than we did. >> zachary, amy, zurlina, thank you all. thank you so much. >>> all right. if you folks throughout and maybe some sitting here, afraid of needles

, and let's just be clear, bill clinton's behavior was inexcusable and he paid a very heavy price fort, that price was being impeached by the house of representatives and tried by the senate, and it goes on his permanent record, as my kids would say. but to tar the totality of bill clinton to his obvious indiscretions is not strong enough a word, and to say that doesn't make the argument about treatment of women and rights of women legitimate, that the democrats can't stand up and say that, that's just going a little too far, but it's awfully convenient for him. and it's convenient for him that he says, well, hillary clinton is not really responsible for him, but it's hard to tell them apart. >> ruth marcus, alex burns, good to see both of you, thanks so much for being with us. >>> we're looking at this live picture of the president. he's running ten minutes ahead of time in maryland at a costco to talk about his economic proposals, selling his ideas from the state of the union. let's listen. >> i love getting on this side of the beltway, even if it is only a few hundred feet away. we

even with bill clinton, who had an obstructionist, if you want to make that argument, backlog with thisdent. what obama does not have, unfortunately, is a connectivity with american people. i think we saw that with obamacare, with the rollout, a lot of americans said wait a minute here, this doesn't make sense here. you said one thing, but now obamacare is doing something different in terms of cancelling something that's very important to me. so what president obama needs to do is connect with the audience. has nothing to do with m ares, has everything to do with his vision and connecting that with the american people. >> is it a connectivity problem, not speaking about the internet here, angela? >> no, i don't think it's a problem connecting with the american people. the president does his best when he's out giving a speech. the challenges, ancillary nature of the white house, which brings me to my point, being able to articulate and relate to a body of people trying to protest you makes it difficult to accomplish anything. once again, the president today, they've rolled out today some

it's bill clinton's home state.n. slower than other democratic states, moving to the republican column. but really, that seems to have accelerated in the obama era. can you tell us about what's going on in arkansas? >> all you have to do is go back to 2009, when five of the six federally elected office holders were democrats and of course, now that's flipped, where you have five of the six who are republicans. obviously, 2010 was a very brutal year for democrats across the country and arkansas was no exception. but the unique thing about arkansas, in my view is, they look at personality over politics in my regards. governor mike beebe is a perfect example. he is, time and time again, the most popular democratic -- i'm sorry, most popular governor in the country. and he's a democrat in a state that many people consider to be red. so, you know, i think when you look at these upcoming elections in 2014 in arkansas, people are going to be looking at the person who they can identify the most with as opposed to somebody w

it's not hillary's fault. >> but it should be an issue. >> but it is a factor in judging bill clinton in history. >> right, but is it something hillary clinton should be judged on if she were a candidate in 2016? >> no, i'm not saying that. this is with regard to the clintons, and sometimes it's hard to separate one from the other. but i would say that with regard to his place in history, that it certainly is a discussion and i think in my state, you know, people tend to sort of frown upon that. we wouldn't be -- if there were someone in my community who did that, they would be socially -- we would disassociate from somebody who would take advantage of a young woman in the workplace. >> senator rand paul, a lot of ground covered, a lot of ground still to cover. hope to have you back. senator, thank you as always. >> thank you. >>> i want to turn now to the assistant majority leader in the senate, democrat from illinois, senator dick durbin. welcome back. i certainly want to talk about the state of the union. but i don't want to let that go. as a democrat, somebody squarely behind pres
