this issue in a comprehensive way. >> it's not enough to just say we support the president if air chris rock, because we all know that, we know he's a fan of mr. obama. what rock should have said if he could possibly put the words together and i don't believe he could, was you know what? this is why i feel that president obama's correct. and this is the america that i would like to see. and articulate some points, but he can't or won't do that and he comes across as a partisan buffoon. >> well, he can do that, i've heard him do that. >> he didn't do it yesterday. >> and i understand this issue-- this was a press conference. >> the opportunity to do it on this program and he wouldn't come on. >> well, you know, his reasons for that, i'm sure, you know, you probably understand, but going back a second to the press conference yesterday, you know, a lot of people spoke there and they made some really interesting points, now, amanda peete was there and she talked about funding for research on this issue and the importance of putting more money into funding this issue so we have better data on wha

it probably was chris rock says the guy at home looking at this tape of chris rock. >>> does america'sad think guns are bad? yes, and we must listen. that's according to chris rock who on wednesday referred to barak as our pop. it suggested we heed his guidance on guns. the comedian appeared at a press conference on pistols with a gaggle of other former celebrities including amanda pete, tony bennett and amanda pete. and here is his reason we should submit to background checks and assault bans and limits on magazines, no questions asked. >> president of the united states is, you know, our boss, but he is also -- the president and the first lady are like the mom and the dad of the country. when your dad says something, you listen. when you don't it usually bites you in the ass later on. >> it was sponsored by michael bloomburg's mayors against illegal guns. although tony bennett thought he was at a bar mitzvah. as for the entertainment? did you foe when we use these rack -- did you know when we use these raccoon tapes they ask us not to say bad things about raccoons. that is a fact. we

race. >> chris rock said that the obamas are like mom and dad out there. he is the boss of the country. so we better do what he says. my favorite line was from tony bennett, who dredged up hitler in nazi germany and said the nations could come to judge us if we don't start controlling guns. tony may have left his heart in san francisco but he left his brain someplace else. >> jon: so obey george and laura bush. >> and he dropped the "f" bomb on bush and said the worst president he ever had. >> jon: that ted nugent interview was the same day that obama took his show on the road pushing for more gun control. are the white house and media seeing it the same way? >> as jeffrey dickens pointed out the network coverage is more than 78 to 1 biased in favor of

i want to comment on what chris rock said obama is not our daddy. he was elected by us to serve the people. i think that's where not just these celebrities have it backwards, but i think the administration has it backward. you have ask any of these celebrity what is if the president or daddy, would have put 32 executive orders on the first amendment? there would be mayhem if did he it for maybe an amendment that they throw their arms around, like they were doing at that press conference. >> good point. end on a bad point. ahead, president obama's hypocrisy on drone strikes. some liberals aren't happy with him keeping secrets from the american people. that's next on "the five" >> we're going to take a look at -- peek at the senate confirmation hearing. john brennan, the c.i.a. director nominee, president obama's c.i.a. director nominee, senators grilling him on questions ranging from drones to waterboarding to authorized leaks and on and on. so it's ongoing and i think bret baier will summarize the whole hearing at 6:00 o'clock. so stay right here. i

chris rock, tony bennett, you mentioned, amanda pete at the u.s.d up by the group started by new york mayor michael bloomberg known as mayors against illegal guns. listen to this. >> i still haven't gotten over connecticut. let the assault weapons go to war, not in our own country. i'd like assault weapons eliminated. >> i'm just here to support the president of the united states. the president of the united states is our boss. but he's also, you know, the president and the first lady are kind of like the mom and the dad of the country. when your dad says something, you listen. and when you don't, it usually bites you in the ass later on. >> okay. colorful language there. that's all right. he's not a politician. that's okay. >> you see a lot of stars at the capitol, as you know. it was surprising to see that many people in one place. it shows you the draw of michael bloomberg and his group. >> chris rock says something like that. a lot of people, they take pictures, they get autographs, where does this go? are people listening? are they -- is anybo

a new wig apparently laugh race. >> chris rock said that the obamas are like mom and dad out there.is the boss of the country. so we better do what he says. my favorite line was from tony bennett, who dredged up hitler in nazi germany and said the nations could come to judge us if we don't start controlling guns. tony may have left his heart in san francisco but he left his brain someplace else. >> jon: so obey george and laura bush. >> and he dropped the "f" bomb on bush and said the worst president he ever had. >> jon: that ted nugent interview was the same day that obama took his show on the road pushing for more gun control. are the white house and media seeing it the same way? >> as jeffrey dickens pointed out the network coverage is more than 78 to 1 biased in favor of gun control position. >> jon: the president, judy, says he handles weapons from time to time and if fact they released a photo of the president shooting skeet at camp david. immediately afterwards, david plouffe sent this tweet -- attention skeet birthers, make our day. let the photo shop conspiracies begin. in

that even though 50% to 60% of americans want action on clips and assault weapons, chris rock said webe looking at other ways like taxing bullets and ammunition to stop the mayhem we have. 30,000 gun related homicides each year. the gun industry makes maybe a billion dollars in profits but public health professionals would tell you 30,000 homicides are costing this country stens of billions of dollars a year. this is a huge economic crisis as well. i think the fact the democrats would not be talking about ceding the ground. >> publishes its list of most wanted enemies. if you haven't seen it, it's well worth taking a look. here's a quick sample. first you've got leonard nimoy whose ears are suspiciously like the president's. then you've got lou gossett jr. then there's henry winkler. can you tell me, is an organization like the nra on the right track when they're more frightened of the fonz than of firearms? >> it's all messed up. it better be scared of lou gossett jr. and leonard nimoy, he's just out of this world. the reality is this. the nra is focusing on minutia. what jesus said

and when chris rock and tony bennett and amanda pete come together and forge a connection, think that powerful message to the nation that yes, this message is getting a broad hearing and people should pay attention. >> julian, to that point, while the nra says even background checks are not worth the time of day, take a look at what the public is saying. a new poll says that 39% of voters are less likely to support a candidate if they're endorsed by the nra. julian, are we weech reaching a tipping point in terms of the nra and its power and influence over politicians and the nation? >> we are reaching a tipping point. the politics have changed. the question is whether the people that want to do something can overcome the obstructionism by the republicans and the congress who are clearly going against the majority will here. and i just want to underscore a point i made the other day which is that i think right now even the o ent pos are conceding we could get background checks. they can't stop that. because 90% of americans support that. but there is a merging amongst democrats, a path

will be your father figure ♪ ♪ i will be the one who loves you till the end of time ♪ >> comedian chris rocksident on gun control. rock joined others urging lawmakers to act quickly and listen to how he put it. >> the president of the united states is, you know, our boss, but he's also, you know, the president and the first lady are kind ever like the mom and the dad of the country. and when your dad says something you listen. david: dad? cheryl, your reaction. >> i'm trying to get over the fact that elijah cummings, congressman cummings with a smirk on his face. and again back to actors telling hee how to vote or whatever. look, you know, hollywood has been a big backer of this president, that's fine, not surprising. he's a comedian, trying to make a joke. i get it. david: i don't know if he was joking or not. they use today say the same thing about ronald reagan, conservatives said he's kind of like our dad, but he was in our 70's or something, and president obama doesn't fit the father figures. >> i don't think that the obamas would appreciate that, they're trying to stay young and health

chris rock, tony bennett, amanda peet, all at the capital, all at a news conference, headed up by the group started by new york mayor michael bloomberg known as mayors against illegal guns. now, the overall tone was certainly serious, but chris rock was sort of able to loosen up the mood when he took the mike. listen. >> i am just here to support the president of the united states. president of the united states is, you know, our boss. he's also, you know, the president and the first lady are kind of like the mom and the dad of the country. when your dad says something, you listen. and when you don't, it usually bites you in the ass later on. so i'm here to support the president. thank you. >> reporter: so the point, of course, is to use the star power of these artists to try to put pressure on congress to pass new gun laws. at the same time increasing the visibility of the organization mayors against illegal guns. they're pushing for improving background checks on gun purchases, passing the recent proposal to make gun trafficking a crime. also promoting proposals to get high capacity

question, what do you want chris rock to say to congress? jason? a complete routine. members of congress will listen to celebrities much more than they listen to regular people. i want chris to have a complete routine, make us laugh, get his best writers together and talk about the fact we need reasonable gun control. he wants to own a gun, lots of african-americans want to own guns, he needs to bring in the culture issue. it would be fantastic. >> ron? >> i think he needs to do that. i agree. i think he can make excellent points. but i don't know if it will have an impact. what i do think that he could do is also talk about mental health issues or as he said instead of bullet control, mind control. let's figure out ways to raise mental health awareness and understand what goes into the minds of these people that create these tragedies and see if we can prevent them. >> thanks for playing today, guys. >> thank you. >> thank you. >>> okay. more on our breaking news this morning, the boy scouts of america has decided to delay its vote on a proposal t

jock lar but making a good point from chris rock there, i felt., the truth is that the majority of americans support the ban on assault weapons. the latest cnn poll was 56% i think. the majority support universal background checks. the majority want these high-capacity clips to be banned. there is a will there. but is there a will amongst the politicians, kerry kennedy, to get this done? >> well, we were up -- i was on capitol hill today and speaking to 15 members of congress, and all of whom have said that they are for this legislation. now, it's tough, because i think the nra is very, very strong and is very, very threatening. and you see that, if you haven't read the rolling stone article on the nra, it is really very eye opening. >> it is. >> i think, you know, one of the women who was there today, whose daughter was wounded in virginia tech, put it so eloquently when she said, you want to know what courage is? courage is standing in a classroom and seeing a guy with a gun and wondering what's going to happen to you and wondering if you're goi

jokingly, but making a good point from chris rock. a majority of americans support a ban, a universal background check. a majority want the high capacity clips to be banned. there is a will there, but is there a will amongst politicians to get this done? >> i was on capitol hill today, and -- speaking to 15 members of congress, and all of whom have said that they are for this legislation. now, it's toh, because i think lades, looks like we've got >> i think, you know, one of the women who was there today, who's daughter was wounded in virginia tech put it so eloquently when she said, you want to know what courage is? courage is standing in a classroom and seeing a guy with a gun and wondering what's going to happen to you and wondering if you're going to survive that moment and being five or six years old. courage is not standing up to the nra. so i think, you know, really well put. let's get this into perspective. if you lose your seat because you vote for this legislation and that saves a life, i think you've served well. you've ser
