tom coburn and jim inhofe.se guys, both of them, both of them, voted against providing aid to the victims of hurricane sandy. now, of course, they do want aid for the victims of moore oklahoma. and those people should get the help. but here's -- how long are we going to put up with these tea party types who rail against the federal government and then the first time they get in trouble put their hand out for the federal government? and we let them have it both ways and it businesses me off. why don't the people of new jersey and new york deserve the help as well as the people of oklahoma? of course they do! but tom coburn and jim inhofe, you know, all of these tea party types, federal government can't do anything. gotta shut down the federal government. we gotta cut the money out of fema. we can't just give out money to people who have been hit by a hurricane on the east coast. no, no no, no, no. we've gotta stop doing that, right? and they vote against everything until they get hit and then they want fema ther

leading the congressional charge is senator james inhofe, if this is james inhofe and not a ground hogn a costume. senator ground-hofe here recently introduced a bill that would ban federal agencies from buying more ammunition if it currently possesses more than its monthly averages during the bush administration. yes, not including the ammo that ended up in the faces of the friends of dick cheney. folks, i know, i know, it's a sad story. isn't it? i know, i know. it's so sad. he was fine. folks, senator inhog's bill couldn't have come at a better time because there are some very disturbing theories as to why the government wants all that ammo. >> some predict a government arms race against americans. >> i suspect that just in case our fiscal situation, our monetary situation collapses, and following it the civil society collapses, that is the rule of law, that they want to be preparedded. there is no other explanation for this. >> stephen: yes. there's no other explanation. i mean, the government is buying up ammo so that following the economic collapse, they can outgun the american p

inhofe: yes. ms. stabenow: i ask unanimous consent at 12:00 noon the senate proceed to vote on the inhofe amendment number 960, that the time be divide between senators inhofe or stabenow or their designees and no second-degree amendments be in order prior to the vote. the presiding officer: is there objection? without objection. mr. inhofe: i thank the gentlelady and we will be prepared to vote on an amendment at noon today. in accordance -- it's kind of interesting. when i go back to oklahoma where -- i know this is offensive to some people -- back where normal people are. i was giving to a speech i say to the the gentlelady who is managing the bill. it was did in duncan, oklahoma, where they had the first fracking in 1949. and i tell them about the farm bill, they say what farm bill? they say 80% of the farm bill is not a farm bill but it's a welfare bill. we're talking about the food stamp program. this is a shocker to people. why would they call this a farm if 80% of it is -- is -- is talking abo

inhofe, generally.nyway, senator inhofe is really addressing what is a distraction from the real issue, the one that his republican colleagues really want to talk about. >> i think the constellation of these three scandals ongoing takes away from the president's moral authority to lead the nation. nobody questions his legal authority, but i think he's really losing the moral authority to lead this nation and he really needs to put a stop to this. >> that's right. let's get back to questioning the president's moral authority to lead the nation and the other stuff, well, that can just wait. let's bring in our panel now. in washington, msnbc political analyst, professor michael eric dyson. and "washington post" columnist, dana, or sorry, dan a. milbank. here in new york, republican strategist, ron christie. if i might begin with you, professor, it would appear that republicans are more than happy to see this president comforting th the bareved, comforting those who lost their homes, but never governing. ne

doing their part to help the conspiracy cause along, senator inhofe, of course, of the global warming is a hoax theory. his former republican oklahoma congressman frank lucas. according to inhofe, "president obama has been adamant about cushing law-abiding americans' access and opportunities to exercise their second amendment rights. one way the obama administration is able to do that," he says "is by limiting what's available in the market with federal agencies purchasing unnecessary stockpiles of ammunition. so as he say, inhofe, the government is out there secretly buying up all the bullets so there won't be any of those bullets out there in the stores for rest of us. inhofe and lucas proposed a bill last week that would ban federal agencies from buying ammunition if their agency stockpile is larger than it was under the bush administration. only the pentagon would be exempt. well, they've got company here. here's new hampshire senator, representative, state senator, actually state representative edmond gionet who had a question for republican senator kelly ayotte at a town hall me

inhofe defended that decision yesterday. he can get for oklahoma but he says we're not going to cheat like those people in new jersey do. >> well, let's look at that. that is totally different. supposed to be in new jersey. they had things in the virgin islands. they were fixing roads there. putting roofs on houses in washington, d.c. everything was throwing in and exporting the tragedy that took place. that won't happen in oklahoma. >> bill: oh, i see. so hurricane sandy did damage in more than one state so therefore, that was different or territory. we can't help them. but we want all of the help we can get for oklahoma. total, total -- >> be careful. i would like to see how the politicians from new york and new jersey addressing getting aid to oklahoma. let's see if they stone wall and make all kinds of statements. >> bill: i hope they show they're better. >> they won't. they'll make sure they get the aid that they need because they know what a hell it's like to go through this kind of stuff. >> bill: barbara mikulski sai

but in hosting senator inhofe to spell all this out, laura ingraham, the talk show host, god bless her, actually asked the senator useful follow-up questions to try to get him to explain exactly how this conspiracy works. listen. >> what are they going to do if they want to violate our second amendment rights, do it with ammo. >> can you explain this to me, what do they need it for? >> well, they don't. that's the point. >> but it had been purchased before obama by the federal government. >> no, not these numbers, now, laura. not these numbers. and the best evidence of that is look what happened to the supply. the supply is gone, and where did they go, the supply some of it, of course, people knowing -- >> buying up. >> -- wants to take it up, buying it up, but not to those proportions. now, i know this for a fact because i know the people that are, you know, are concerned about this, and so there's no downside, if i'm wrong on this. >> the last part of this, i feel like i want to preserve it in lucite and make a plaque out of it and give it to people as an award. i know this for a fac

or inhofe is saying this is different this time. it is totally different. it is different because it happened in a red state. literally, that's the answer. over 100 people in sandy. what was the tally on the extraordinary destruction there? again, it is just sad to have to play football on this and compare and contrast. but it was bizarre honestly, to have senator coburn from the home state within hours of the roofs being ripped off oklahoma, putting on a statement saying any relief will have to be deficit reduction. why would you even put out a statement like that? >> john: it is not very politically sound either. i don't think the guy will be seeking re-election after this. but really, michael, is this the time for deficit hawkry? >> i don't think you hold these victims hostage. the federal government, we decide we want fema. we want the federal disaster relief. vermont -- i'm from the home state of vermont. i got hammered with hurricane irene and they had -- they face the same issues. why are we going to help out vermont? liberal state. let them do it on

but one who i think does a very good job, and last week she had on her show oklahoma senator james inhofe, pushing a conspiracy that the obama administration is buying as much ammunition as they can get their hands on so there's none left for the rest of us. see, that's how they are really going to disarm us, by taking away all the bullets, then the obama government can wage unopposed violent war on the disarmed populous of the united states. open your eyes, sheeple. but in hosting senator inhofe to spell all this out, laura ingram, talk show host, god bless her, actually asked the senator useful follow-up questions to try to get him to explain exactly how this conspiracy works. listen. >> what are they going to do if they want to violate our second amendment rights, do it with ammo. >> can you explain this to me, what do they need it for? >> well, they don't. that's the point. >> but it had been purchased before obama by the federal government. >> no, not these numbers, now, laura. not these numbers. and the best evidence of that is look what happened to the supply. the supply is gone, a

inhofe and lucas proposed a bill last week that would ban federal agencies from buying ammunition if agency stockpile is larger than it was under the bush administration. only the pentagon would be exempt. well, they've got company here. here's new hampshire senator, representative, state senator, actually state representative edman gione who had a question for republican senator kelly ayotte at a town hall meeting on tuesday. >> one of the things that concerns my constituent, the majority of my constituents, is that the appointments that are now being made in washington by our president and the way he's handling immigrants and nationalizing them and giving them the opportunity to vote and wanting to keep track of our guns. they're worried we have to use our own guns. is there anything in washington that says, any telltale signs, we might be headed to a revolution given the fact these things are going on? that's what was said in the group i'm in. >> sounds like the poll results we just gave you are at work in that guy's head. serious by election. by the way, senator ayotte at the tow

and somehow this this whack job conspiracy theory has turned into a piece of legislation from jim inhofe and frank lucas patrick why why would these people put their reputations on the line like this as the republican party totally lost it no i don't think that's the case i mean i tend to see where you're coming from i think the conspiracy theories that are attached to this can be a little bit farfetched i mean i have to admit when i first saw some of the reports about the quantity of ammo those being purchased i was alarmed myself i mean we don't need we don't need all that we don't need the government got a hell of a lot of shops and a lot of guns almost certainly and i agree you know so i looked at the numbers a little bit of a bit of a numbers guy mean if you look at it this is kind of these contracts. kind of just designed to be spread out over five years so if you look at the maximum number of bullets used per year be about ninety million bullets so that's about if you break it down between one hundred thousand officers that fall under this d.h.s.s. it's about nine hundred rounds p

about fast and furious because that's going to take as of a completely different direction james inhofe and frank lucas the senator and state representative were both republicans were oklahoma have sponsored a bill that would forbid the administration from buying. more ammunition over a six month period because alex jones came up with this theory that the government you know goes for about a billion bullets a year i mean we've got wars going on and yet every single police agency in the country you know every police officer is required to recertify you've got to basically go through a billion bullets a year no big deal and the government buys them and dog to get good prices alex jones turns this into a oh my god look at their stock piling you know we're not stockpiled we've always been buying this money and somehow this this whack job conspiracy theory has turned into a piece of legislation from jim inhofe and frank lucas patrick what why why would these people put their reputations on the line like this as the republican party only lasted no i don't think that's the case i mean i tend t

thank you. >> hello, i am senator james inhofe from the state of oklahoma. let me begin by telling those who lost loved ones during the tragic tornados in our state how much we love you guys. my family and i continue to pray for you, we pray for you every day. i have been in constant contact and communication with the oklahoma emergency management, federal emergency management officials, and the leaders of the oklahoma national guard -- that the direct needs of those affected on the ground are being met. oklahoma has been hit hard, but we are not knocked out. 14 years ago on may 3, 1999, an eerily similar tornado struck the same area of moore, oklahoma, and again in 2003. the images and the stories from the storm earlier this week were nothing new. oklahoma will persevere and overcome this tragedy as we've demonstrated in the past. after the oklahoma city bombing you all remember that in 1995 -- people saw the many ways oklahomans took care of each other, from running towards the bombing instead of running away to donating their blood, their time, their mone

senator james inhofe -- i knew this would be good!y news" ♪ ] the other senator from oklahoma. he said on tuesday that federal aid will be totally different than the hurricane sandy aid that he voted against. [ ♪ "nbc nightly news" ♪ ] don't point out hypocrisy in that. just trust him. it's different. >> it is completely different. it is his red state. not the stupid blue state. >> coincidence. >> stephanie: everybody was getting in and exploiting the tragedy that took place. that won't happen in oklahoma. >> exploiting the tragedy? >> stephanie: here's why. because he's a dummy is why. he said the sandy relief bill was supposed knob new jersey but they were getting things in the virgin islands fixing roads there, putting roofs on houses in d.c. inhofe and coburn wanted to slash aid to victims of hurricane sandy. at the time, inhofe said he considered the full proposed aid amount to be a slush fund. >> when it is for his state -- >> stephanie: he's not so good with the science fun facts. while northeastern states like new york and new

which is what makes the actions of senator inhofe so troubling. dhs wants to buy more than a billion rounds of ammunition in the next four or five years, which the department says it will use for law enforcement agents in training and on duty the reason the dhs says it is stockpiling the ammunition because like going to costco, it's just more economical sometimes to buy in bulk. when this totally logical explanation was challenged, dhs responded with a letter that read in part "dhs routinely established strategic sourcing contracts that combine the requirements. it makes sense for the fiscally-minded conservative. they introduced the ammunition management for more obtainability act 2013 too put caps on the amount of amio federal agencies could buy. the conspiracy theories claim the u.s. government is gearing up for an arms race against the american people and most recently this kind of talk has been all over the drudge report. >> what's the government arm against? the american people. who do they say the terrorist threat are? conservatives, libert

senator jim inhofe said that we have no business engaging in the debate.led his office and i asked to speak with him. he's too busy to speak with me. i said, here's my cell phone. call me. i'm still waiting for him to call me. rand paul, i think, has the same notion. if he wants to ask me what my motives are for advocating for a safer culture, he can call me, too. >> do you feel like if you could talk to jim inhofe you could change his mind? >> i'd like to ask him, just like to ask him, what are you thinking? why wouldn't i want to do this? >> in temps of going back to the background checks legislation, specifically at the federal level, the way that joe manchin has talk about it, he will be on the last word with lawrence later tonight and i was with him in washington a couple weeks ago and he was wearing the sandy hook promise pin and i asked him how do you see this a different result than what just happened? >> he said we had majority support and only had to move a few senators and have them vote yes. what do you think is the kind of argument to move sen

inhofe: all right. first of all, i thank everyone. we are wall, i think late in the week are on a time line. i have a very significant piece of legislation, s. 965, called the iran sanctions implementation act. i spent a long time on the floor yesterday talking about this and it occurred to me that it's a little bit complicated and the longer you talk about it, the more complicated it gets. so i've shortened it. let me make a couple of brief comments about where we are today in relationship to iran and to some of the other countries in the middle east and a solution that everyone can agree to, to the problem that's there. first of all, iran's -- 70% of iran's revenues come from their export of oils. what we have done successfully is had some modest means of reducing that so that we've actually cut their amount of exports in half over the last four or five years from 2.5 million barrels a day to 1.25 million barrels a day. what that amounts to 70% of the resources, the revenue that iran has. what do they do with their revenue? they fir

. >> that was senator jim inhofe who voted against a bill to provide aid for hurricane sandy disaster explaining differences between sandy aid and yet to be created aid that oklahoma will undoubtedly need to rebuild. his colleague from oklahoma, senator tom coburn said disaster aid funding must be offset by cuts in the budget elsewhere. his office said if an additional emergency aid package is necessary, dr. coburn will not change his position. there's a question about how disaster relief will function in a state with two senators who have been outspoken about denying disaster relief to other states in the very recent past. let's bring in oklahoma state representative mark mcbride who represents moore. with me in new york i have steve ellis from taxpayers for common sense. representative mcbride, let me begin with you. what do you need there in moore? what are your expectations of what the federal government can provide to help you folks rebuild? >> you know, i don't really know. i was in a motorcade with our congressmen and senators from d.c. they all flew in today. i know that congr

today it was republican senator james inhofe who got to do it.his is why he says we should impeach president obama today. >> of all the great cover-ups in history, we're talking the pentagon papers, the iran c contra, watergate and all the rest of them, this, i said back on november 28 on fox, is going to go down as the most serious, most egregious cover-up in american history. people need to know how serious this is. to me -- it may be starting to use the i word before too long. >> i word meaning impeachment? >> yeah. >> yeah. i don't know why they have to spell it. they have been saying the i word since march of 2009. why get all nervous about spelling it out now? the biggest cover-up in american history, the latest reason that we must impeach president obama, according to senator jim inhofe in oklahoma, is, of course, benghazi. last fall the u.s. ambassador and three other americans were killed. there have been a lot of attacks on u.s. diplomatic series abroad. there were a dozen attacks on the embassy abroad during the bush administration, fo

but this time, these hard cases like inhofe and chaffetz, bachmann. they go right to ten. impeach. is this serious, or just them? that hard group of people that always go hard right? >> look, i think there are people in both parties who if there's a certain president in the white house who isn't your party, anything he or she does is sort of -- you immediately, as you point out, chris, sort of go to town. here's what i would say. there's a large group of people including people i quote in the story you mention who say the worst thing that we can do here, tom davis, former virginia congressman -- >> he's a smart guy. >> -- i know you had him on the show before. he basically said, this is a political sort of feast for republicans. these series of things. irs, "ap," benghazi. what the republicans shouldn't do is gorge themselves. they have to pace themselves. what that means is don't turn it -- i would say benghazi we're sort of around the bend on this already. don't turn it into a purely political matter. that is, if you're a republican, you think the administration's hiding somethin

which is what makes the actions of senator inhofe so troubling. the government has gone on an ammunition buying spree so there won't be bullets left for people to buy. dhs wants to buy more than a billion rounds of ammunition in the next four or five years, which the department says it will use for law enforcement agents in training and on duty the reason the dhs says it is stockpiling the ammunition because like going to costco, it's just more economical sometimes to buy in bulk. when this totally logical explanation was challenged, dhs responded with a letter that read in part "dhs routinely established strategic sourcing contracts that combine the kpoep environments for good and services, ammunition, computer equipment and information technology services. these contracts help leverage purchasing power to efficiently procure equipment and supplies at significantly lower costs, which makes sense, right, particularly for the fiscally-minded conservative. not for senator in who have, who last week along with another senator introduced the ammunitio

. >> on friday senator inhofe said the president may get in peace -- impeached over this. do you see a rising to that level? >> i do not see it at this point. it is important. we owe it to the families of those who lost their lives. we owe it to diplomats and security folks who serve our country around the world. we owe it to them to get to the bottom of the matter. it should not have been this hard to get the facts. >> what role do you think hillary clinton played in this? >> i do not know the details. what i do know is some of the communications coming out of the state department, denying a request for increased security that was sent by the diplomats in libya, some of those denials have your name on it. did she see it or was it a stamped with her name? we do not know those details. we need more detailed e-mails so we can get to the bottom of who did what and why so that we can learn the lessons. >> on the issue of syria, what do you think our next that should be there? what are your chief concerns with a no-fly zone are arming the rebels there? >> the next steps are har

senators inhofe and coburn rid they have both opposed increased funding for fema and backed a plan toash disaster relief to victims of hurricane sandy, though the local congress member voted for that relief for hurricane sandy, recognizing that oklahoma was in the path of these tornadoes. what do you think about this, beverly? >> truly, i wish they would change their vote, perhaps they don't realize it is not having lived through it personally, the effects it does have and the help we really need. the sheer numbers of people displaced that need immediate homes is an incredible -- increasing number. they really need the help quickly. they cannot wait for legislation. they need it now. they need something in place to take care of these more immediate situations. >> can you talk about these things that you know given you were completely wiped out in 1999 and lived right near or ?ork in moore yesterday >> you need immediate shelter. you have no home or a roof over your head. unless you have a good friend or family in the area, you're in your car. you have to have food, clothing. we had on

and a very very ugly jim inhofe what is it about talking about benghazi that brings out the worst in republicans during an interview on the rusty humphries show last thursday the oklahoma senator weighed in on former secretary of state hillary clinton's demeanor during the initial benghazi hearings in june. you know i think that she has gotten by with that type of forceful attitude a is somebody that is not normally accustomed to you don't hear from women is much if you do it and she came out so forcefully. it was just so completely sexist and. very fair. coming up in seventeen eighty nine george washington struggled to find an american made suit for his presidential inauguration as a result he made sure that finding and purchasing american made goods would never be an issue for him but times a change once again it's nearly impossible to find american made goods on main street usa i'll tell you what we can do about that in tonight's deleted. download the official location. choose your language stream quality and enjoy your favorite. if you're away from. your mobile device so you can

that won't happen in oklahoma. >> senator james inhofe, thank you so much for being with us. i know that you have much to do, as do other members of the congressional delegation. thank you so much. while we're waiting for the president in our last few seconds, you can just take a look over my shoulder and see the number of people who have just been allowed back in to what was their homes. and they are sifting through the rubble. each of them has a piece, a memento, something that they want. i was speaking just a short time ago to people across the street. and we were talking about how you always wonder what you would look for, and she was finding her photos. and now, the president of the united states. >> good morning, everybody. as we all know by now, a series of storms swept across the plains yesterday in one of the most destructive tornadoes in history. sliced through the towns of newcastle and moore, oklahoma. in an instant, neighborhoods were destroyed. dozens of people lost their lives. many more were injured. and among the victims were young children, trying to take sh

your fellow oklahoman senator james inhofe has offered this view. great cover-ups in history, we're talking about the pentagon papers, the iran/contra, watergate, all rest of them, this i said back on november 28th on fox, is going to go down as the most serious, most egregious cover-up in american history. people may be starting to use the "i" word before too long. >> oh, okay. the "i" word meaning impeachment? >> yeah. >> now, he certainly sounds like he'd like to impeach the president. do you agree with him, sir? >> no. i have a lot of respect for senator inhofe, and we agree on most issues, but frankly, i don't think this -- it's serious. four americans are dead. >> nobody's disputing -- >> if you'll let me finish my point, i don't think this is the equivalent of watergate or iran/contra. there's a difference when somebody in the white house is ordering these things. this isn't something someone ordered or intended. if you read the pickering/mullens report, which is i think interesting, but not quite complete, you know, they say nobody deliberat

senator inhofe, thanks so much.'re all thinking about everybody in your community and we thank you for being with us. >> i know that too. thank you very much. martha: all the best. bill: we're at the early stages of the story as you can imagine. the numbers will likely change. the images however, will not. first-responders, national guard, volunteers, hoping to find survivors in that rubble. back live to moore, oklahoma, in a moment. also the threat still out there again today for 10 of thousands if not millions of americans. who is the target now? we'll take you there. that forecast as we continue. why let constipation weigh you down? as soon as you feel it, try miralax. it works differently than other laxatives. it draws water into your colon to unblock your system naturally. don't wait to feel great. miralax. take the miralax pledge to feel better sooner. get a reward like a beauty treatment, a dance class or a $5 gift card with purchase of a specially marked pack. go to miralax.com for details. bill: if you were

inhofe: mr. president, it's my understanding that senator reed is going to be speaking next and i'd like to ask that i be recognized as if in morning business at the conclusion of his remarks. the presiding officer: without objection. the senator from rhode island. mr. reed: thank you, mr. president. first let me rise to commend senator murray for her extraordinary leadership on the budget committee and in so many other ways in this senate. but she did a remarkable job in bringing together a budget that responds to the urgent needs we see in the united states today. to create jobs, to strengthen the emerging economic recovery. in fact, to provide even more momentum for this recovery, much more because in my state of rhode island, despite certain gains, we're still at roughly 9% unemployment. unacceptable. we have to do more. and the first step on that path is to move this legislation to conference. and that is what senator murray has spoken about and that is what is so critical. 53 days ago under

and that's what our plan is to do with the pryor-inhofe amendment. it's supported by the american farm bureaucracy the national cattle means beef association, national counsel of farmer co-ops, the national wheat growers association, the national cotton council, the american soybean association, the national corn negotiation, the u.s. rice association. so almost everyone having to do with a.g. ag is very supportive of this. it doesn't totally exempt all farmers because what it does is establish three categories. one with farms where you add up the aggregate, and it is less than 10,000 gallons; they would be exempt. however, if you're in the next level up -- that would be between 10,000 and 42,000 gallons -- they would be required to maintain a self-certified spill plan. now, anything greater than 42,000, they'd have to require -- have the full requirement. that means they'd have to hire an engineer, they have to go through all this expense, and i see that the prime sponsor of this amendment is on the floor now, so i would yield to the senator from ar

james inhofe will we know that in the hall is a sellout we know we can't count on him for anything to even tell us the truth about what he knows but we expect our president not to sit on the fence as we have this conversation we don't know whether or not this is a president that would stop keystone in this poll at this point so we have a very complex system that is not easy to digest it's not easy to analyze is clearly as maybe you can in a place like europe or asia where it comes to things like climate change is there also an issue of false balance and i see this not just in the school warming debate . debate in quotes but also in you know been whether it's this whole been god you know hyped you know right feigned outrage or the i.r.s. or whatever it may be. you know oh we're telling one side of the story we've got to tell the other side but you know as if the both sides were fifty fifty and sometimes it's like really it's ninety ten or ninety five five in terms of reality right well i mean it's almost like you have the media who you almost want to take this high minded idea like to
