limbaugh is right. watching some of this coverage is painful.ay somebody did five minutes on a possible electrical fire on the plane. well, if there was an electrical fire, don't you think the pilots would have radioed about it? another dopey pundit put forth a stow away might have hijacked the plane on national tv. a stow away. unbelievable. rejoining us now from washington charles krauthammer. so, i want you toible aize me when i'm watching, this i'm flowing -- i'm upset about it i know i'm old school but i know it's ratings. obviously it's ratings. there are people want to watch the mystery. but it's now corrupting the news business, i think. what do you say? >> look, as analyzing you i'm not sure you can afford my rates. >> i can. i can. i got a new contract here. i can afford it. >> do you have obamacare? >> no. i pay cash, charles. i'm not going to put through that. >> all right. well in that case i might just do it. look, let me try to explain why i think there is this fascination. this is a story with a lot of sort of fantastic fictional

even rush limbaugh is saying oh, you can't impeach this president because he's the first black president tell you, that's a little reverse psychology. remember, now, the first thing they started with in the first administration -- the first term was birtherism. that didn't work. now what they're doing is priming the pump for impeachment and what they're saying is they'll get us looking at 2016 when in reality they're focused on 2014 because they know the only thing standing in their way is quite honestly the control of the united states senate and so be very careful. this is priming the pump, getting the american people to start thinking impeachment and then that's it. >> and even if it never happens, if they can get the midterm elections operating under an impeachment cloud it can affect some very close senate races. >> that's right. that's right. >> you know, goldie, though, there's something that i think really has sunk to a new low in this obama derangement that's going on. over at fox news they are actually using the malaysia airplane tragedy to bring up benghazi. i mean, this is a

he went on rush limbaugh's show and said this about president obama. listen. >> it's going to acrimonious. there's no question. he has been one of the most corrupt presidents in modern times. >> now, he later apologized for saying that. most corrupt president. later apologized. but how can you be objective when you have that kind of view? >> and it's remarkable, too, because objectively he's not that corrupt. you can disagree with this president politically and ideologically, but compared to other recent presidents, there are no real scandals. all of those other presidents have had very real scandals. reagan easily could have been impeached for what he was doing. but this works for congressman issa. he just recently went to new hampshire where he raised a ton of money. he has raised more money than any other member of the house of representatives. other than paul ryan who's coming off a vice presidential run. so this works for him. because he's not getting involved in legislation that parts of the republican party might disagree with. he's just hating

you don't see rush limbaugh, glen beck apologizing and you see folk on the left making those kinds ofgies and that's what gets really, really frustrating. anyone with an opinion in public is subject to people being critical. we have to inject respect and sensibility and humanity into discourse. that's for both sides and everybody in the conversations. >> this whole thing started over the mentioning of this new black conservative magazine that is going to be launched. is this a magazine that james peterson is going to read? is this a magazine to which you might subscribe? >> well, i doubt i'll subscribe to it, craig. >> what about the diversity of thought, james peterson? >> in my experience -- first of all, craig, in my experience those folk who are most interested in diversity of thought are interested in it to the exclusion of other opinion. it's about all kinds of diversity. look at the kinds of comments that they have made over the course of their careers. have you seen ben carson apologize for comments about obamacare? armstrong williams apologize for former republican administra

conservatives, my friends, conservatives need folks like rush limbaugh, sean hannity and others to challengehe liberals , as with the mainstream media in south texas, where we have endeavored to , onk out on national tv a fox and all the other ones. we must be heard in the spanish languages, as well. it is not just a bunch of old white men. i was born, my friends, i was born in public housing. my parents were self-taught. they taught us that water may be many reasons to cry and surrender, there are more -- laugh ande succeed. we spoke in spanish at home. we ate tortillas, but we were always american first. liberals and the gop need to adjust the fact that the tea party movement is not going away. the gop must realize that grassroots has been believers whoe ,ill work to save our nation unlike the professional hispanics who need to be paid to get the vote out. friends, we have tea party hispanics who are americans first. in san antonio, and my very good cruz., ted [applause] uz who was elected because he was an american. i am proud to be of mexican dissent. what i'm much more proud to be an am

won by five million votes, and the opening pages of the book capture the commentary of the rush limbaughs who says the white establish. is no longer a majority, and bill o'reilly, we're outnumbered. this was a moment, i think, where at least one of our great political parties realized, oops, the country that we thought we were running in, that's we thought we were win in, isn't the country that voted that day. mitt romney wound up getting 17% of the nonwhite vote. that doesn't auger well for a major political party looking at the future change of the country. you asked about the generations. so, if you sort of play this out generationally, if you start from the oldest generation, the whitest generation, the most conservative and the so-called silent generation, came of age in the '40s and '50s, have been conservative much of their lives. financially they're our most secure generation in a lot of the upheavals of the great recession, of five or eight years ago, they were mostly able to escape. most of them hat paid off mortgages on their homes so all that foreclosure and going underwater d

he won by 5 million -- 500 million votes in the opening pages catches the commentary of the rush limbaugh's who says the white establishment is no longer a majority and bill o'rielly we are outnumbered. this where -- was a moment where one of our political parties realize the country we thought we were going to win and is in the country they came out and voted that day. mitt romney wound up with just 17% of the nonwhite vote. that doesn't argue well for a major political party looking at the future change of the country. now you asked about the generations have you play this out generationally if you start from the oldest generation, there are the whitest generation and the most conservative generation politically. they are the so-called silent generation that came of age in the 40s and 50s. they have been conservative much of their lives. financially they are our most secure generation and a lot of the upheavals of the great recession and a five to eight years ago they were mostly able to escape. most of them had have paid off their mortgages on their homes so all that foreclosure going on

conservatives need folks like rush limbaugh, sean hannity and others to challenge the liberals in spanishinstream media in south -- south texas where we endeavor to speak on national tv, on fox, on cnn and all the other ones. we must be heard in the spanish language as well as the english language and they must see us, that is not just a bunch of old white men. i was born, my friends. i was born in public housing. my parents were self-taught. they taught us that there may be many reasons to surrender, there are always many more reasons to laugh and succeed and though we spoke in spanish at home, we were always americans first. [applause] >> liberal and the gop need to accept the fact that the tea party movement is not going away and the gop must realize grassroots hispanics like myself are true believers who will work to save our nation unlike the professional hispanics and consultants who need to be paid to get the vote out. in texas, my friends, we have many tea party hispanics who are americans first, at jackson, san antonio, and of course my very good friend and champion of conservati

rush limbaugh essentially called him a marxist, to which pope francis responded, the marxist ideology is wrong, but i have met many marxists in my life who are good people, so i don't feel offended. which i just love. because he totally diffuses it. which says it doesn't bother me, you can call me whatever i want. i'm going to talk about the things i want to talk about. i think for the president, one of the things that the pope really does is he frames the issue of income inequality in a right versus wrong framework rather than left versus right. >> very well put. and it's a gospel message. he's talking about jesus's message. and it's not just a catholic message, it's a christian message. i think president obama has been using that i think rightly, to remind americans and not just catholics that income inequality is something that's against the gospel. so i think they're both doing their roles. >> and on that point, the president spoke about their discussion on that, we have that brand-new sound, so let's listen to that. >> the largest bulk of the time was discussing two central conce

rush limbaugh even calling the pope a marxist. how does he respond to that? he responded very charitibly as we've come to know and love in him. i don't know if i would have that much charity. i think that was terrible to refer to the pope as marxist and very inaccurate. the catholic wisdom is always right smack down the middle. we're always concerned about excesses on the left, which is collectivism, socialism, commonism and excesses on the right which is unfettered cutthroat capitalism. swfr in between is$gk the middl which will come to a fair, quitable just economic system. different popes have corrected either side. john paul as you might imagine coming from where he did, he was he was a bit more sensitive to the excesses on the left. francis is more concerned about the excesses to the right. that's fine. they're both pointing us to a balance, a prudentialal way that allows freedom in the marketplace, economic prosperity, people to take care of themselves and their families. but yet, protects the rights of the poor and those without. somewhere in between t

and the opening pages of the book sort of capture the commentary rush limbaugh establishment is no longer a majority and bill o'reilly was outnumbered. this was a moment i think where it is one of the political parties that realize the country that we thought we were running in that we thought we were going to win wasn't going to come out and vote that day and they wound up getting just 17% of the vote. that doesn't bode well for the political party looking at the future change of the country. you asked about the generation. so if you play this out generationally if you start in the oldest generation, they are the most conservative generation politically and they are the so-called silent generation in the 40s and 50s. financially they are the most secure generation and a lot of the upheavals of the great recession. they were mostly able to escape and paid off the mortgages on their home into foreclosure it didn't affect them that much. many if not all of them were retired. they are very anxious frankly about the changing complexion of the country. they are somewhat disoriented by the digi

because a lot of liberal reformers have been very unhappy for years at the continued success of rush limbaugh hope that they could restore the old fairness doctrine. clearly unconstitutional. i think they've given up on that. but they've come up with a new idea called media diversity. they want to change the ownership of radio stations around the country if they can do that, new owners won't play limbaugh. they reduce his influence that way. that's what they want to do. >> it's amazing because they can't get successful liberal talk show hosts. so they're going to try to do it some other way, having somebody else buy the stations and have no one listen perhaps. let's look at this, in terms of donor, we were curious. how much influence do the koch brothers have in terms of dollars given? look at the top 15 donors. they have some ties to democrats. if you want to go all the way down and find the koch brothers, you have to go down to number 59. they're creating a villain where maybe none exists. what about senator reid making these statements, inflammatory statements where he's got immunity on th
