reporter: thanks, greta. >> greta: this case is making history. the supreme court's decision will have an impact on every single american. michael carbon is one of the lawyers arguing against president obama's health care law before the high court. today, he took on justice -- code -- sedemeyer. >> you can't buy a car without emissions control. i don't want a car with emission control, it's less efficient in terms of horse power, biam forced to do something i don't want to do by government regulation. >> you are not forced to buy a product you don't want. i agree with you that since the government regulates all markets, there is no limiting principle on their compelled purchase. when they put these environmental -- >> force me to buy it -- >> no. >> unpasteurized goods, goods that don't have pesticides but have others. there is government compulsion in almost every economic decision because the government regulates so much. >> it's a condition of life that some may rail against. >> greta: does she have a point? michael, how did you answer the just

it will be fascinating. >> thanks, greta. >> greta: >> greta: tonight, the nation is on edge awaiting the u.s. supreme court's decision on the fate of the health care law. on monday, the justices trying to determine if -- if an obscure tax law could stop the health care case from being heard. on tuesday, lawyers arguing the heart of the health care law and the source of the funding, the individual mandate -- is it constitutional or not? >> the argument here is that this also is maybe necessary, but it's not proper because it violates an equally evident principle in the constitution, which is that the federal government is be a government with all powers. that it is supposed to be a government of limited powers and that's what all of this questioning has been about. what is left? if the government can do this, what else can it not do? on wednesday, the sizzling question -- if the court does strike down the individual mandate, does that kill the entire health care law? >> i mean, it's a question of whether we say, everything you did is no good. now we start from scratch. or to say, yeah

how are you, greta? >> greta: there is a lot of retted rick. the rick santorum think they got cheated in michigan. they thought they would get one at-large delegate. fair or not fair? >> i wouldn't make a big deal out of two delegates there. there are 2400. what happened is, michigan is a proportional representation state. 28 of the delegates get elected by congressional districts. romny and santorum both carried 7, so they get 14 each. there are two at-large delegates. the state committee says it said this would go to the winner, but they wrote a mem ono saying it would be proportional representation. they walked back from the memo and said, we made a mistake. we always planned it to be winner take all and we did. the thing that i am focused on in michigan, though, and i am very serious about it and grossly upset by it is that romney won michigan by a huge margin among the republicans and the independents. it was only that 1 voter out of 10 was a democrat and the democrats voted for santorum 3-1. there were 100,000 democrats who came out to th

now, back to greta. >> greta: now, this one is stunning. of congress had to pass a bill to stop themselves from doing what the rest of us already know is wrong. a new bill bans insider trading in congress but that is not all it bans. senator john mccain goes "on the record." senator, nice to see you, sir. >> thank you, greta. >> greta: let me start with the recent tweet of yours that says good news senate just passed stock act with amendment banning outrageous bonuses for fannie mae and freddy excess. next step signed into law. i like the stock act. i think it is an important signal to send. although i don't think it has as much impact as it is advertised but we did have an amendment on it to cut out the outrageous bonuses for fannie and freddie execs. they claim they can't attract good people unless they pay them $500,000 and $700,000 in bonuses when we have people serving in the military in the cabinet and many other positions of responsibility so i thought we had maybe some patriotic americans who would like to sort out this mess of fann

thighs to see you. >> thank you, greta. >> greta: i fact checked your ad, are i didn't.hould say abc news .com fact checked it and annual premiums up 9% or $1,300. i assume you are hitting the swing states for a deliberate reason. >> absolutely. i don't think there is anything better in politics when you can take the words coming out of someone's mouth in this case barack obama gives us plenty of words coming out of his mouth. if you can see the american people look here is what the president said. these are the promises that he made to the american people and then here are the facts and while he is in love with giving speeches and he is in love with the sound of his own voice and some people think he is pretty good at giving speeches we need to show the american people every single place he goes where we are on healthcare, his broken promises there in regard to costs and access. where are we in the debt, the deficit. and that is our job and that is what we are going to do from now until november, greta. >> greta: i don't fully understand. if that is your main line of at

>> greta: this is a fox news alert. the nation is being ripped apart tornadoes, ravaging illinois, missouri, kentucky and kansas city. they are still on the move heading east. they just hit tennessee and three people are dead there. in the midwest, storm has killed ten people. powerful winds showing absolutely no mercy flattening entire blocks of homes. this new fog is breaking by the minute. also.... >> once this is brought to my attention, i stopped it. >> greta: that is attorney general eric holder said about fast and furious but do lawmakers believe him? darrell issa is here. mortgage giant fannie mae is trying to grab more cash from you. company has cost you billions of dollars. what do they want now? you'll have to hear this one. but first, here comes super tuesday. last night, governor mitt romney took michigan and arizona by a landslide but that was last night. already the g.o.p. candidates are turning to the next ten states, setting their sights on big prize of super tuesday. that is 419 delegates. newt gingric

iem now back to greta van susteren. >>>. >> greta: free condoms for a 12-year-old. sound shocking?ssachusetts school system. they are considering making condoms available to students as young as 12 years old. the proposal has passed first vote. so why do people think this good idea. peter dugan joins us. >> good evening, greta. >> greta: tell me is this a program that people are in support of and how did it happen to come about? >> i think it's very mixed right now. that is quite evident with online newspaper, mas live.com. the comments seem to be split. you are very in favor of it or very opposed. it really goes back and forth. it's been going back and forth, very strong comments, long comments. people very upset or not happy but just glad that something is being done. other folks are saying, no, we can't do this. >> greta: has there been an incident or series of incidentss that have provoked a discussion to include 12-year-olds in this? >> they wanted to have it in high schools, starting so young, they wanted it in the middle schools, too. they figured out that is 12-year-olds an

to "on the record." >> greta: this one is bad.> a flight attendant goes bonkers, talking about a crash, talking about 9/11 and the bankruptcy. passenger his to restrain the flight attendant during that american airlines flight this morning. two passengers grabbed the woman. good evening, gentlemen. i guess that was the flight from hell, right? >> yes, ma'am. good evening. ta: i'm very well. what happened? >> what happened was the flights attendant kept on saying things over and over the p.a., they were getting worse to the effect that the plane was going to crash. pilot wasn't listening. we tried, i tried to notify notify him couple times, nothing happened. i noticed a flight attendant and first class passenger shoving in the gallery. that is when i looked. i saw the aisle was clear. so i jumped out of my seat. i was in the back of the plane ran to the front and was able to grab her and subdue her and put her in one of the seats with the first class passenger and one of the flight attendants. >> greta: brad, we heard screaming in

. >> greta: all right.ume now a romney-obama matchup and now you've got the situation where let's say it doesn't matter whether it's constitutional or unconstitutional. now you've got governor romney having to answer for the health care law in his state. in that matchup, you know, how does governor romney not get rolled over by president obama on this health care? >> well, as rick santorum and newt gingrich have tried to point out, romney will have his hands full with this one because, of course, he's now kind of dubbed the father of obama care with his romney care there, the mandates that he made sure got through in the state of massachusetts, so he'll have his hands full there. >> greta: is that fair? >> where romney has gone, in fairness to him in his explanation, his justification for romney care has been the tenth amendment of identifier constitution which, of course, explains that states do have rights and states have great flexibility. in fact, they have more flexibility than the federal government w

: thank you. >> thanks, greta. >> greta: president obama, taking aim at critics who blame him for soaring gas prices. the g.o.p. candidates argue, increase in domestic oil drilling to reduce gas prices. what is president obama say to that? >> under my administration america is producing more oil today than at any time in the last eight years. [ cheers and applause ] >> that is a fact. that is a fact. we have quadrupled the number of operating oil rigs to a record high. do not fell tell me we are not drilling. we're drilling all over this country. [ cheers and applause ] >> i guess there are a few spots we're not drilling, we're not drilling in the national mall. [ laughter ] >> we're not drilling at your house. [ laughter ] >> greta: poebt does president obama have his facts straight. you heard the president speak. does he have the facts right about the drilling? >> the speech included a series of technically true but misleading statements. so the president is correct in the sense his policies aren't causing the current increase in gas prices because drilling takes a long term on line. oi

a simpler way to ship. >> greta: dead heat in alabama.aker gingrich is to sweep the south, if he doesn't win in alabama and mississippi on tuesday, will he drop out? speaker gingrich says no, but should he? dick morris joins us. nice to see you dick. >> good to be here. >> greta: so, are they really statistically li tied in alabama? >> they are at the moment. they couldn't get worse. 30-29, 28. in mississippi the latest poll romney is taken a 7-point lead and he was way behind in mississippi and alabama. i think what is happening. romney has opened up a 12-point lead over santorum nationally, voters are coming to the conclusion it's romney. they want the process to end and don't want republicans killing each over. romney is getting a lot of votes >> greta: 1144 is the magic number that the front-runner and front-runner is governor romney. let's say speaker gingrich takes texas and somebody else takes california and mischief in the state like in wisconsin where you can vote if you are not a registered republican, are there enough sort, lat

greta? >> tonight, it's all on the line. the supreme court tackling the part of the -- heart of the health care debate-- the individual mandate. is it constitutional or not isn't only sure thing, the fate of the u.s. u.s. healthcare sysm and maybe a presidential election could be at stake. and it may come down to one justice. tonight, lawyer michael carbon is here. he argued against the president's health care law, before the high court. on the other side, a congressman who helped write the law, representative rob andrews is here and texas attorney general, greg abbott. you will hear from them all. but first, it was a wild day in the supreme court today. justices firing questions at the lawyers and the decision could come down to a swing vote of just one justice, justice anthony kennedy. justice kennedy today asking some key questions. >> can you create commerce in order to regulate it? >> when you are changing the relation of the individual to the government in this -- what we can stipulate is, i think a unique way, do you

[laughter] >> and do you really expect a court to do that?! or do you expect us to -- to give this function to our law clerks? it -- is it not totally unrealistic? >> greta: rush is outraged. >> justice of the u.s. supreme court said to the government lawyer, you want us to go through 2700 pages. do you realize -- what

back to greta. >> greta: it's happening this month. court takes up president obama's national health care law. we are closer to finding out, is it constitutional or not? there is a lot of talk about theed individual mandate. but there is something theals nobody's talking about and it could be bigger. what is it? the florida attorney general, pam bondi is here. welcome to washington. >> nice to see you. >> greta: okay. everyone talks about the individual mandate. but there is the severability clause that is not in the statute, am i right? >> that's right. it is not written into the health care law. >> greta: why does that matter? >> originally, it was. and it is now been taken out of the -- of the health care law. but, legally speaking, they can still argue it, of course. that's why the courts have given us an hour and-a-half, just on this issue alone. it is so important because our argument, of course, about the mandate is the mandate is gone and struck down-- >>> if it's unconstitutional. >> it could all scprz fall together. if you we

greta is next, see you tomorrow night. >> greta: tonight, president obama's helt care law could be on life support. after a grueling day in the court, listening to the justices fire away at the lawyers, many suspect the supreme court is about to pull the plug. we don't know for sure what the court is going it do. but we do know the entire nation is awaiting that decision. no matter which way it goes, this is big, really big. donald trump is here. what does he think about obamacare? >> it's really a disaster for the country, a tremendous cost effect. horrible for business. it's disgusting. very catastrophic for the country. >> greta: you know, donald, that's not all. you will hear more from donald trump, including whether trump wants to be the vice-president. he surprised us with that one. rush limbaugh is not beating around the bush. he is calling the health care controversy an utter mess. >> if they throw the mandate out and decide to keep parts of the rest of it -- how -- court is going to read the 2700 payments? and the court is going to vote? give me a break. that isn't going to h

. >> greta: mr. speaker, your southern strategy came up short, you didn't come in first place in alabama and mississippi, but you came in second. i assume as you shift to illinois, there must be a thought to change the strategy. is the strategy in illinois different because have you to zero in and win illinois? >> well, no, i have to keep moving forward and talking about big ideas and things like an american energy plan that would return gasoline to under $2.50 a gallon. it's $4.25 in chicago today. and talk about big solutions to issues we are faced with. i think that there is a place for somebody who wants to develop the right kind of approaches to create jobs, to balance the budget, to pay off the national debt and do the things that most americans want to do. we came in second in mississippi and alabama. very, very close, almost a tie in mississippi. the fact is that the so-called frontrunner, mitt romney, came in third in both states and got a third or less of the delegates. i think this is a wi
