that's it colmes, you are done for the night.onica, you are wrong in the sense that you can't cede that barack obama has done a pretty darn good job attacking these terrorists with drones and other things? >> that's not what i said, bill. i have given him credit. >> but do you give him credit. >> fighting the war on terror. >> yes, i have given him. i have given him credit for the last couple of years. i wrote about this in the book. he has ramped up the drones. he has ramped up nsa surveillance. a lot of conservatives disagree with him on that. that's one thing i think he has done well. >> when i ask you about it before, you don't go there you go all over in other places. he wants to transform the nation he wants to do this. >> he does, bill and that's what he has done. >> talking about. >> if you want to talk about the war on terror, he has adopted many of bush's counter terrorism policies gitmo open to rendition and the rest. that's what the extremist left has an issue with. >> that's why stone and his people dessurprise him.

. >> here now to reply monica crowley and alan colmes both fox news analysts. colmes, reporter did a story poor neighborhood in new york on welfare check day. we had hidden cameras and were out there. the drug dealers were lined up at the check cashing stores. okay? where you cash your check. you get the money and they run out and buy heroin and crack cocaine. this is not new. what is shocking is that the colorado legislature had a chance to forbid these machines in the pot shops as they have done in the bars and liquor stores and said no. >> atm machines. >> first of all you should not be allowed to use those welfare cards to buy pot. there is is a reason why the machines are in there. they don't want people walking in with wads of cash. think have the machines in there so law abiding citizen, not welfare recipients who use it for pot would be able to buy legally colorado in colorado. >> why would the state want to be in the business of helping nibby an intoxicant? >> they shouldn't. >> that excuse is ridiculous. wrong not to go along with the republicans. >>

with us monica crowley and alan colmes.arcotics narcotics is nonviolent crime. >> it is a nonviolent crime any more than selling a gun is a nonviolent crime. if you use a gun badly that's a. >> you are talking about gun dealers. >> some guns being sold are crimes. but it's not a violent crime to sell it. it depends on what a person does when they use it. >> what is the only use for heroin? what is the only use? >> well, it is used for some -- i mean. >> what is the only use for heroin. >> only use for heroin is people get high on heroin. >> drugs you have some protection. >> correct. >> and you have hunting. >> correct. >> and you have a number of other things. now, i think selling narcotics is a violent crime because it leads to the harm. you are selling a harmful substance to another human being and you say? >> you are also talking about an illegal substance. >> i wouldn't even care if it was legal. >> those are all legal substances. here you are trafficking in illegal substance. i tend to agree with you that perhaps it s

martha: alan colmes, host of alan colmes radio show and tucker carlson, editor daily caller and host & friends weekend." good to see you this morning. you see the back and forth. when i asked the state senator, what kind of behavior or incident he was trying to prevent with this bill in the first place, he said, no shirt, no shoes, no service, that kind of thing. you know, it seems like we've gone well beyond that though, tucker in the discussion of all of this. >> well it is pretty simple. if you want to have a gay wedding, fine, go ahead. if i don't want to bake you a cake for your gay wedding, that is okay too, or should be. that is called tolerance. when you try and force me to bake a cake for your gay wedding and threaten me with prison if i don't, that is called fascism. so it's a little surprising we need a law to protect people against that. in the specific case in colorado, the baker who didn't want to bake the cake for gay wedding. i'm happy to bake cookies for the couple. i don't believe in gay marriage. i don't know a single gay person who would want someone to be sent to

, host of the alan colmes show. i'm sure your answer to that question is now. "new york times" is not doing the p.r. job of the administration. >> this wasn't an editorial by the nie"the new york times.the"" this was not a news article nor an editorial in the "new york times" so it was the opinion of one writer. i happen to agree with them. this is what obamacare was supposed to do and according to the head of the c.b.o., that's what it does. it's really a demand issue. it creates more demand as a supply changes because people are going to want to -- people who are stuck in jobs only because they're getting health care may want to retire, may want to leave to restore their own businesses and those jobs have to be filled by new workers. this is not firing a bunch of people, getting people out of the work force. it's giving people more flexibility which is exactly what the affordable care act is supposed to do. jon: i suspect you see it differently. >> they have more flexibility to work 29 hours a week because the emp

alan colmes, host of the alan colmes show and fox news contributor.gh, fox news contributor. welcome. good to have you here. boy the cbo has been busy putting out a lot of numbers maybe the administration is not too happy about. what do you make, alan of george will's argument there? >> i don't think democrats are making the argument there is no effect but i think there is a net benefit as opposed to a net loss. historically we haven't lost that many jobs and we're bringing 900,000 people out of poverty in addition to raising wages, as you point out for 16 1/2 million people. so it a net gain for people. >> martha is the second week, cbo said a major effort of this administration that democrats and congress back will be destructive to job creation which remains the biggest issue facing the country. even if you accept everything they benefit from increasing minimum wage, democrats say benefit from, the cbo said a million people potentially not able to get a job because the labor force then shrinks. the minimum wage is not a life-style wage. it's a star

alan colmes host of the alan colmes show. both of them are fox news contributors. to say you and bill o'reilly don't agree on much, but suggests sitting down he got a lot of material covered? >> he did a lot in 10 minutes, which is hard. president obama tends to speak in paragraphs, i'm not sure of sound burst. we have to use careful language. in front in the commander-in-chief, but on the other hand enough questions to make it a full interview. >> what i heard from the president is a lot of what we've heard before. nothing here, let's go. >> he has calm down since it got to him. >> it was good for him, good for the country, and because of o'reilly got questions in, you have some interesting answers. don't have time to think about the fumbles, i only think about the next play. which tells you something about the management style. if you don't stop fumbles from happening, you will not get the next play. there was an article about a problem with healthcare.gov, yet 22,000 people sending e-mails saying the building is not right, no answers whatsoever. the white house

the alan colmes show and author of "thank the liberals for saving americans." a defender of the leaks snowden has let out. anything about this story, does that change it for you? >> the media has to be very careful not to disclose the names. that's not to say that i don't think edward snowden did the right thing. i think he did. i know that's a controversial state many. the media has a responsibility not to reveal specific information about names of agents of c.i.a. personnel who could be rendered very vulnerable and lives could be at stake as a result. you have to trust the media to do the right thing. jon: the "new york times" motto is all the news is fit to print. they printed that and then some. they're one of the papers that released this information, then went back to the website and redacted it. once it's there on the web, it's kind of hard to bring it back, isn't it? >> right. and i also couldn't find any mention of this a.p. story on the "new york times" website today so i guess they don't think this is -- they're too busy with the new book they've wri

we have a top man in the republican party ed colmes who is doing absolutely atrocious job in terms of putting the party together. had a lot of losses. yes, i said that if i was governor i believe we could reduce taxes by half, we're the highest taxed state in the union, and i believe you could reduce taxes by half. you would, in fact have a stampede to new york. >> well, are you talking about personal income tax? which tax are you talking about? >> i'm talking about generally speaking. and i'm also talking about fees. new york has some fees. there is fees if you turn around, if you look at somebody you get feed to death. i'm talking about tolls on bridges. the bridges are unbelievable. $15 tolls to staten island on the bridge. so, have you people leaving new york all the time, for florida where i am right now. and just leaving left and right. they are going to florida where they don't pay tax, you know, unless new york gets its act together, it's going to be -- they are going to have a tough time. >> i can't even imagine it would be like knock down drag out fight with mayor de blasio

>> you can't bring jasper because he'll just dig up colmes in the backyard. >> i've never been in myl. bob goes in the pool. >> by the way, if that dog is with me in the pool, no. >> how does bob look in a swimsuit? >> speedo. >> does he wear a t-shirt, a thong. >> a little like this maybe. >> you know, i can't believe -- i can't wait for tomorrow. >> i can't wait for tomorrow. >> bob, what are you going to coordinate with that shirt? >> by the way, i'm wearing coral so i think we'll be fine. >> very funny. >> but anyway, congratulations on this food and thank you so much for what you've done for "the five." >> i think the cake is going to be the best part. >> so good. >> the steak -- >> keep the knife away and maybe hand it over to greg. >> are you kidding? >> don't give greg sharp objects. >> that cake is the best cake you'll ever have. >> i'm not big on lemons. use them for other purposes. >> make sure to watch his show later at 10:00 eastern, his being "hannity." coming up jay leno's last night as host of "the tonight show" after more than two decades. great moments from his rema

martha: joining us now anow alan colmes, and jack kemp. is eric holder right about that?sense on both of those counts? >> i like what he just said. it gives people a sense of dignity. if you have done your time for the crime you deserve to be integrated back into society. i'm not talking about violent crimes. we are talking about crimes that are not violent. if you are african-american and get disparate treat the from the justice system. >> for the most part this is a soap box. these are state laws. most states have mechanisms by which felons can reapply for voting rights and voting privileges. the reality is only 9 states haver. nanlt restrictions. and they are for real serious violent felons. there are many people in america agree if you are a non-violent felon who had good behavior in prison, you should have a way back into the process of voting. governor mcdonald did that in the commonwealth of virginia. it's a reasonable position. but holder's remarks seem to go further. >> mcdonald was probably thinking about himself. it should be done at a federal level as well. th
