it came out of the heritage foundation in 1993 as an alternative to the democratsç liberal single payerestion you have to ask is if you want to cover everybody, how will you do it without a mandate and without universal single payer? it can't be done. >> and you think the heritage foundation plan came through the heritage except through the white house, would it be constitutional? michael savage talked about this. let's listen to the worst. >> it's well known that roberts unfortunately for him, has suffered from epeleptic seizures. he has been on medication. doctors will tell you that medication used for epileptic seizures can be used for d disord disorders. you can see the cognitive problems. >> he never said he was epileptic. congress member jack kingston of georgia tweeted today. with obama care ruling, i feel like i just lost two great friends. america and justice roberts. ron, this is so over the top. this is like some high school. i don't know how to explain it. it isç very sad. >> the republicans feel betrayed here. they thought they had the supreme court comfortably on their si

thank you to the heritage foundation for having me here. for those who are stuck inside the beltway, first of all, i'm sorry. second, you will know that the heritage foundation and the cato institute don't always see eye to eye when it comes to health care. in fact, grace murray often has the lock us in a room together until we can come to some sort of terms. but one thing we absolutely agree on, and that is that the patient protection act is an absolute disaster be repealed in its entirety. and going to focus my remarks on just one aspect of it. even though the president on the devoted 189 words of his state of the union address to the question of deficits and debt, i believe that is truly the overriding issue of our time. after all, we're still borrowing $0.34 a very delicate this country spends. in about $15 trillion on the books debt at this point, and if you include the unfunded liabilities, social security, and medicare are total indebtedness exceeds $120 trillion. on that context the cost becomes crucial. and if you all remember, of

what a marvelous facility the heritage foundation has year. and it's a privilege to speak today. i grew up in illinois and continue to reside there with my wife, our four kids to my grandkids, and hopefully more on the way. that's a stone's throw from where phyllis and her husband raise their family and she now resides in missouri and works in the suburbs of san louis. a stone's throw across the river i've known and followed her all of my life, but we did not get to know each other until a few months ago when my book came out she so graciously asked me to speak, to be one of her guests on a radio program. here i am today. what a privilege it is to speak to you. i would add that the collective respect the yesterday speakers have for this lady speaks volumes of her work and legacy. by the way, no some of your from north texas state are some university in texas. how many of your native texas? i am a native texan as well. enders, texas, way out west near odessa and midland. try as we might, you natives, the rest of them just don't get it, do they? it's impossible to explain. all righ

i have worked with the filipino community as part of the heritage foundation. the tenderloin area has been a starting point for many filipino immigrants and their families historically. they have gone through a lot, the community, with three development, the high cost of living, removal, displacement. a lot of our folks are elders who have been forced to relocate to other parts of the city and bay area. at the same time, we have many community centers that our elders and youth frequent and use. we have the country's only filipino bilingual school. we have health centers, parks, churches with filipino residents and their families. we still have a concern about the recent move to push the border north to 13th street. is higher than the previously proposed 15th street northern border, which was in the map as recently as april 4. it is higher than the community unity map version with the district 9 border at 16th street. it is important to filipino community stays unified and has a voice politically. [tone!] our people come out for community matters. they want to b

[talking over each other] >> watching someone from the heritage foundation put down the mandate, mittromney went to the heritage foundation and did a powerpoint presentation -- [talking over each other] [talking over each other] shannon: just to be fair, i have asked him about that because that is a line that i hear quite a bit. twenty years ago it was a different kind of mandate and it's not what would end up in this kind of law. they have backed off that position. to be fair to them, to share what they are currently saying about that. first of all, i think it's awesome that you have a book -- [talking over each other] >> mitt romney went to the heritage foundation and did a powerpoint presentation promoting the individual mandate because what he was doing in massachusetts -- [talking over each other] [talking over each other] [talking over each other] >> should be a national model -- [talking over each other] >> romney is wrong and wrong nature was wrong. obamacare is wrong and the american public is of the opinion that it is wrong. amerans don't want to. >> tell me what the republi

we are in the health plan and it is putting it in a deep hole. >> massachusetts and the heritage foundation what mitt romney is a terrible example of what other states can learn from? >> first i will say that that's a good college try. governor romney attempted to veto the provisions and they were overridden and patrick has taken it in a different direction. that's number one. number two, states by the constitution do have the power to coerce behavior. the government doesn't unless it's by taxing power. good for massachusetts that they gave it a try, but when you see the costs are exploding, why in the heck are you taking to the rest of the country. bad for the patients and bad for our fiscal health. >> sir, thanks for your time. appreciate it. now new evidence that the obama campaign sees the latino vote as one of the important demographics in november. the obama campaign has been outspending to woo that vote. since mid-april they spent $2 million on spanish language and radio ads. the romney campaign spent $110,000 in that same period. the president getting help from celebrities like marc

a heritage foundation idea. >> mitt romney idea. >> a mitt romney idea.e was really -- >> he didn't build that on his own, the heritage foundation and others helped him. >> my state, he doesn't want to talk about much. and they have just walked away from all that. and mitt romney has sounded consistently better ten years ago than he did once he decided to run for president. >> one interesting thread in this primary is it's completely normal to paint the opposing party's candidate as more extreme than they are. you want to do that. what isn't quite as normal is to spend so much time painting yourself as more extreme than you really are. there hasn't been a pivot as far as i have been able to tell from primary election romney to general election romney. a lot of things people assumed would fall off have remained and a lot of the arguments have remained the same. in that way he has been consistent, but somewhat unusually. he's been immoderately consistent. >> good word. like the etch-a-sketch is jammed. he was signaling the campaign aid, was signalling, well

he is an intern this summer at the heritage foundation in washington, d.c. in the office of the president. he will be one of two pages from colorado serving at the republican national conversation in florida later this summer. you know, i don't have the opportunity to meet a lot of our students in my role at ccu. i'm out a lot, off campus a lot. but i have had the opportunity to visit with jonathan a number of times over the last few months. and he is an amazing young man. he has a heart for the lord. he has a heart for public policy, for politics. and i would say you want to keep your eye on jonathan finer. i suspect you'll hear more about him in the years to come. jonathan and kevin will be introducing james robison and jay richards. will you please help me welcome jonathan finer and kevin miller. [ applause ] >> good morning. isn't this a fantastic event? it's just such a pleasure to see all of you. isn't it great? it's my pleasure to introduce you to james robison. he is working with jay richards. they're going to be a combined presentation. so jay will

. >> that's where the individual mandate came from, from heritage foundation.who don't like the healthcare plan already understand it as a tax and this government encroachment. so it's not necessarily a new framing that republicans have now. people don't like it already understand it. >> others have pointed out, and correctly so, that the only people who would pay this penalty, fee, or tax, whatever you want to call it are people who don't by health insurance. who can afford it but don't buy it. >> right. >> who want to be free loaders. newt gingrich had some harcial things to say. this is the language mitt romney used. this whole idea of just because you you don't want to buy it you think go to the emergency room and have everyone else pick up the tab if you get in a motorcycle accident. >> one nice thing about having the week off in wolfeboro new hampshire this week is maybe they can figure out what they are going to have to say about handwriting when it comes back on the healthcare trail. i thought last week -- >> they were flat-footed, trying different kind

here -- this is from robert reckter of the conservative heritage foundation.e says: i'm curious what you think, given that you work in this all -- you poured your heart and soul and life into this. >> there are not a lot of rewards in being pour in this country, and the welfare system is tough. we have seen many many of the programs we had 20 years ago stripped away. the food stamp program, that benefit is decreasing right now. and the farm bill what is on the table is a $10 billion cut. >> what would that mean for you? >> when people can't get food through the food stamp program, or now it is called the snap program, they come to us so that means we have to find more food. >> so do you also do the food -- does though food bank always get public funding? >> we get a little bit. less than 20% of the money we operate with is public funding. and most of that is we distribute usda products. >> so you have seen an explosion of need for those that need to come to you rather than get food stamps. if you saw this massive cut in food stamps would you guys be able to ha

the heritage foundation, a conservative group calling them quote a slap in the face to hard-working americans. yesterday romney himself joined the chorus of critics, suggesting the president's comments reveal an anti-business bias. >> to say that steve jobs didn't build apple, that henry ford didn't build ford motor, that -- that papa john didn't build papa john pizza, that ray crock didn't build mcdonald's. that joe and his colleagues didn't build this enterprise, to say something like that is not just foolishment, it's insulting to every entrepreneur, every innovator in america, and it's wrong. in the past, people of both parties understood that encouraging achievement, encouraging success, encouraging people to lift themselves as high as they can. encouraging entrepreneurs, celebrating success instead of attacking it and denigrating makes america strong. that's the right course for this country. his course is extraordinarily foreign. >> but the republicans' unified message hit a snag when former new hampshire governor john sununu tried to hit obama on the same theme but it was thrown off h

. >> reporter: an analyst at the heritage foundation says the real losers in this tug are war are the military and civilian defense workers. >> one way or another, everybody that is related to defense and the business of defense is going to be affected. >> reporter: unless congress acts in eight months, the half trillion in cuts will go into effect putting a very easy to understand result of a not so easy to save rule. >>> the u.s. going for the gold in london. we'll get an update on the summer olympics coming up next. >> we'll check in on redskins camp. what are the early reviews on rg iii. we'll hear that next. >>> baltimore's michael phelps could make history today. he has two shots at gold. he is looking for his 18th and 19th medals which would make him the most deck raid olympian in history. he already has the most gold medals ever with 14. >>> american teammate matt griefers won with the backstroke. >>> on the women's side, 17- year-old missy franklin earned her first olympic gold medal by winning the women's 100-meter backstroke. her time, 58.33 seconds. >>> a big disappointmen

guest: the heritage foundation is a think tank in washington. my understanding it has a nonprofit status a little different than social welfare organizations. i should say i'm not entirely sure what their tax status is. it is very influential and helps coordinate allied of the ideas coming out of the republican party -- a lot of the ideas coming out of the republican party. they're not inserting themselves into the election process, the morning policy side. there's a difference between giving to a super pac and giving to a group like a nonprofit affiliate of american crossroads, which is that in the super pac, you will have to disclose who you are when giving that donation. with the other, you still have anonymity. host: what is the supreme court's take on disclosure? guest: more less very favorable towards the disclosure. another part of the citizens united ruling was an 8-1 decision upholding the importance of disclosure in these laws. anthony kennedy wrote a very strongly worded opinion that sort of a sign the praises of transparency and said

, but i would wager that few can distinguish between the american enterprise institute, the heritage foundation, and the cato institute, three think thanks that have had greater impact on washington politics than the entire ivy league. so, in many ways, i'm privileged and i'm honored to have an opportunity to be a part of a course like this at an institution like this. like most conservatives of my generation, i was inspired by william f. buckley. i began reading national review as a high school student and can honestly say that to this day, the base of my political thinking derives from two giants, bill buckley and friedrich hayek, both of whom will figure in my remarks. though i am today president of the national rifle association, i served for many years as chairman of the american conservative union, was a follower, a friend, and an ally of bill buckley and i'm here today for that reason. as i was accepting this invitation i was reminded of what bill's brother jim told me he asked of his colleagues in seeking permission to attend the 40th anniversary banquet of the new york conservative par

hearing before the committee a couple weeks ago, we heard from one of the think tanks out here, a heritage foundation analyst who said that u.s. companies are free exploit the deep seabed right now and they have all the legal certainty right now necessary to support investments to drill in the deep seabed, and the analogy drawn by that witness was just like fishing. you go out and nobody owns the fish. it's every person for themself. in light of the fact that you've got 161 nations and the european unions and all parties to the convention, it seems odd to suggest an every person for themself approach to this. now you've address it had somewhat here and talked about the certainty. i just want to be crystal clear whether that's an alternative. is that viable? >> mr. chairman, i would say it's an alternative, but i don't think it's viable. we could proceed as a nation. i think it's very important to recognize that the world today is extraordinarily different than it was 40 years ago. we are, again, a global economy. we have multi-national companies that have the means to develop these resources, but the

brian darling contributor to the daily mail and director of government studies at the heritage foundation is doing a long. i'm not aware of your maybe secretly yeah if i do our best to get a journalism oh jones magazine which is not owned by rupert murdoch and tom dispatch and horace cooper conservative commentator senior fellow at the national center for public policy research welcome back to all of the. obama democrats have proposed actually here living a move move on to the campaign trail president obama just released this new ad hammering mitt romney on his record of outsourcing jobs and offshoring bank accounts checking. i'm barack obama and i approve this message beautiful for spacious oh right. right. for. gosh. and. has become a big issue on the campaign trail and romney has been leveling criticism at the president for being the outsource or in chief. it is interesting that that when it comes to the outsourcing that this president has been outsourcing a good deal of. american jobs himself by putting money into energy companies solar and wind energy companies that end up making the

whether or not that was the of police and army major on one of our major allies in the world heritage foundation all he said he was going to be better because of his anglo-saxon heritage. he didn't actually say that you're right so i'm not going to attribute that to him is. as bad as what we're alleging self but you know he it seems to me like he's tackling all these things as a businessman you know sits down all let me lay out all these reasons why i think the olympics will be good and i think they'll be bad or there might be foggy questions on the rise of the olympics things that one no one cares about except for boris johnson to get quite the speech to the town and then polled the two which i found odd hold the town on whether or not they were ready for the olympics which i'm a little if that's an accurate way to measure whether or not the town's ready for the olympics security he was i just it was grand scheme. so bottom line we'll see we'll see where this goes we've got those before us and israel. in the middle east . ok it's been one week since the massive. colorado and president obama gav

is a perfect example of a sterile and empty debate this whole program was cooked up on the heritage foundation it was first put into practice in two thousand and six by then governor mitt romney they took that massachusetts plan the pharmaceutical and insurance lobbyists authored two thousand pages of the bill included four hundred forty seven billion dollars in subsidies for the pharmaceutical and insurance industry the equivalent of the bank bailout bill for those industries they can still raise but they are as anybody who has private insurance as i do will tell you they are jacking up premiums almost monthly they can raise co-payments there's no protection if you get chronic chronic or severe illness if you can't pay those premiums you're out that's why a million people a year in this country go bankrupt eighty percent of those people by the way had insurance and yet you know we have this debate that there is no difference between romney care and obamacare it's all a carnival act it's political theater and you know it doesn't matter which piece of legislation you're talking about corporatio
