the great one, mark levin.ou know, mark, if this is how democrats want to play, all right, we're big boys, we can take it. politics is a blood sport, but if that's the case, then every democrat that has signed onto obama's reckless 6 trillion dollars in debt and his spending that hasn't created a single job, didn't cut the deficit in half, i think it's time to just describe them for what they are, they are thieves breaking open our children's piggy bank and robbing future generations blind. how many republicans have taken offensive positions like that. time for them to get more aggressive? >> yeah, it would be nice if they got more aggressive and all they have to do is speak the truth and in complete sentences, but for some reason doesn't seem to work among the republicans. here, let me try it this way. let's take medicare, they're going to talk about paul ryan throwing old women off the cliff, right? who has destroyed medicare advantage. >> sean: obama. >> you're not going to have medicare advantage. obama did

mark levin notwithstanding. >> well, let's go to new jersey governor chris christie. he's getting snubbed bycpac. he was invited to speak by this organization next month. but it doesn't seem to be worrying him too much. >> i didn't know i hadn't been invited to cpac until two days ago when i saw it in the news. i wish them the best. let them have a great conference. and as for the rest of it it doesn't bother me a whole heck of a lot. i can't sweat the small stuff. i've got a state to rebuild. i can't sweat the small stuff. >> michael steele, what do you think? >> ditto, period, exclamation point. >> is cpac the small stuff? >> you know, the invitation, or the lack thereof, is the small stuff. not the organization. and i think the governor is exactly right. okay, invite me or don't invite me. i'm running a government. i'm governing. imagine that. actually governing. so he's not wasting time, giving speeches and doing all of that. he's doing the important work of demonstrating leadership. so if people want to snub him, snub him. but do you think christie gave rat's you

that was mark levin making fun of someone else's looks. well, that was just spectacular.xactly kate moss. >> stephanie: i think he sits at home stroking sean hannity's books. precious. my precious. i love that chiseled chin. >> eww stop. that's an elf isn't it? >> stephanie: sean hannity is precious. precious. >> oh, you really sold the movie to me now! >> stephanie: that was weird. okay. brian kilmeade on fox and friends. >> paul ryan saying his idea in his budget is to eliminate obamacare, that's not practical. even though you might want it, the supreme court has spoken. that's never going to fly. >> because he heard chris wallace say that. >> stephanie: the smart guy on sunday says this. >> so i will say it, too. >> stephanie: people are saying i'm dumb and i'm startled by the sun coming up. >> the one guy is an actual journalist on fox. >> shepherd smith. >> stephanie: i'm surprised he's still on. >> very good coverage of 9-11. they were at the pentagon before the wall collapsed. >> stephanie: wow. laura ingraham or as we call her, number 17.

. >>> favorable andded, the democratic congressman who shays mark levin is off his rocker.g the debt is not an immediate crisis. he says it strikes me as a grenade with a cap off. no? >> you know, thank you so much for having me, neil. you may recall, i was a member of the so-called biden group, where we had ten meetings, bipartisan meetings, i was on the supercommittee, 12 people, bipartisan, six and six, when we met and met and met, and we could not reach a deal on the so-called big reduction package. but we know that we do have a problem with spending. but we have a problem classifying spending as well. i think it's spending when you give tax preferences to people and corporations who don't need it. you are spending money. so what we have to do is get serious about expenditures, where they're being made, come up with a fair and balanced approach to try and get something done. >> neil: do you think unless we do, we are -- say what you will, what your characterize is spending or not. i heard that argument. i'll talk about whether it represents an immediate crisis now that,

potential pick, jay adams had this to say about his former colleague when he spoke "the great one" mark levinell us about this fellow perez before he went into the justice department. >> well, he's a radical's radical, used to be maryland, and worked with the-- he's an extreme radical, anti-business, a racialist to the core. >> can you imagine this man in charge of the labor department, the total leapt. >> totally lawless, this is a man for whom law is a nuisance. >> joining me now with the reaction from americans for justice, jay sekulow and congressman dennis kucinich. you didn't like when the black panthers were outside with the batons the polling place in philly, you didn't like that. >> that case didn't have anything to do with secretary designate perez. >> actually, it did. the issue came up with the new black panther case in which the inspector general reviewed the case and supported the accusation that there is racial hostility within the civil rights division within the doj when it comes to enforcing civil rights laws and equally when the defendant in the case is black, and the victi

democratic assemblyman mark levine joins me live from san francisco. ing, gretchen. glad to join you this morning. >> gretchen: why is this an important law to be on the books? >> well, if we think about it when we send our children to school, they go to a smoke free environment, most of us work in a smoke free environment. where we should feel safest, in our own homes if we share a wall or ventilation system. if a neighbor lights up, we all smoke with them and we know how dangerous secondhand smoke is. >> gretchen: this does not affect stand alone homes. >> it doesn't at all. about 40 million americans live in a situation where they're exposed to secondhand smoke in their apartment or con did cond. 50,000 deaths from secondhand smoke nationwide. >> gretchen: landlords can ban them. here are other things banned in california, clothing donation dropoff box, tanning beds for minors, foigra, entering an animal enclosure at a zoo. a lot of people say there is a ton of regulation. whatever happened to individual rights? >> sure. you mentioned a lot of differ

listen to him talking on-- here is rick harrison talking on mark levin's radio show. >> it's insanitygovernment just stepped out of the way, we would have a trade surplus in this country, we'd be energy independent, we would have full employment and there would be so much money out there that basically, like it used to be in this country, there would be hospitals all over this country, barely be a health care problem. i don't think they should be involved in education. i don't think they should be be involved in health care and i think the last, this health care bill, i don't see how they can call it constitutional. >> clayton: he's a libertarian as well. >> ainsley: he became famous running that small business and employs 60 people and then you have the fed ex founder we saw him in the news this week saying that he founded his company back in 1971, name is frederick smith. he is saying we live in a regulation nation and if he had to start his company now, there's no way it could survive. >> jesse: right now the pawn star guy has 60 employees. now, under obamacare's regulation and he

we have mike gallagher from the mike gallagher show and mark lavigne from the mark levine show. >> mikeyou know, part of this -- the statement was kids went home not feeling great about themselves. how do you respond? >> well, i mean, i am going to go on a limb here and wish that schools educators worried about education. you know? i mean, this is this typical nanny state mind-set that do-gooders want to force parents how to parent, tell patients how to parent that. great story out of the mouths of babes. cameron is the smartest guy in the room, saying it's my body, leave me alone. he has a loving mom on the scene. i mean, this is the overreach of the government. it shouldn't surprise us in the state of massachusetts. i was intrigued when you ran the report and said they do the testings of grades 1, 4, 7 and 10. what about 2, 3... 8, 9 and 11 and 12? it's arbitrary andka capricious and nonsenseical. take it from a parent, stick to reading, writing and arithmetic. let's not get into the kitchen of every child who goes to school in massachusetts or elsewhere. >> is this too nosy? >> i thi

here is radio host mark levin, "the washington post's" charles krauthammer and starting this exchangeound bite montage is senator fieinstein not long after that exchange. >> well, i just felt patronized. i felt he was somewhat arrogant about it. >> i thought cruz was also the manner in which he asked it, i think it appeared a little bit offensive. i don't think that cruz helped himself, but on the general argument feinstein's, even though it won in committee is going to lose. >> the idea that professional public officials, career senators, albeit temporary, that is they may have a career in the senate, but they won't be there forever, the idea that they can fundamentally alter the bill of rights is unacceptable to those of us, you, who understand what it mea means. >> megyn: well, did senator cruz go over the line? turning now for a fair and balanced debate. ben ferguson of the icon radio network and host of the ben ferguson show and simon rosenburg, founder of a think tank and form clinton campaign advisor. wow, has this gotten a lot of pickup, pow, a lot of focus on something that,

he went on the mark levin radio show last week and had the following to say about mr. perez. >> totally lawless. this is a man for whom law is a nuisance. he brings the cases, you might remember, against school districts to allow children to dress in drag. he harasses pro-life protesters in florida where a judge awarded $120,000 in sanctions against the justice department. i mean, this is a man who is advancing a radical agenda using his power in the obama administration. >> megyn: and just to follow up, the case against the pro-life protester in florida he's right that sanctions, attorney's fees were awarded because the doj was thought to have overstepped. about the kids dressing in drag, my understanding there was some evidence that the little children were severely persecuted so the civil rights division stepped in on their behalf. so his point is this is a guy pretty far to the left on most issues. whether you like that or don't, the point is that's where he comes from. who else would you expect president obama to nominate, chris? does it come as a particular surpr

here for a fair and balanced debate our constitutional attorney and radio show host mark levine and radioncluded law enforcement officers and parents. they voted for it. it will not be every teacher. it will be some teachers that they authorized. a good idea or bad idea? >> a bad idea. i want educators to educate. i remember teachers where sometimes a kid would try to stick a tack in their chair. first of all, i want to know where the guns will be kept? in a locked filing cabinet. a good friend of mine is a teacher in new orleans and she had her cabinet broken into and they stole her computer. or on their person? that is more scary to me. kids pass notes behind teacher's back. if a gun is sticking out there i think that will be a real incentive for kids to play tricks and try to grab the gun. >> should they be gun free stones. >> we have seen what gun free he zones do. sandy hook and virginia tech was a gun free zone. the aurora colorado movie theater was a gun free zone. i don't know how much times we realize that we should declare banks to be gun free zones so nobody robs them. it is ob

[♪ circus music ♪] >> badly written joke. badly delivered. >> stephanie: he does of does the leno thing at the end. >> yeah. [ laughter ] >> true story. true story.

some tough defense, mark begich, land roh, hagen, pryor, baucus, and rockefeller and levin retiring, into play. not too early to think that mitch mcconnell might get his dream of being a senate majority leader. not impossible to see here. >> look, luke, this is part of the problem of six-year cycles for democrats. remember, 2006 and 2008 were two of the best cycles for senate democrats and democrats generally in modern memory. in six years' time it will be the 2012 class and the 2014 class. republicans had great numbers in 2012, too. i know i looked at the map in 2012, and you thought, republicans have a lot of different paths to the senate majority, they didn't get there. 2014, same sort of thing. the 2008 class elected on a 365 electoral vote by barack obama. this will be barack obama's second mid-term election, he's not on the ballot, different dynamic and all of those people are in states that are at best, sort of toss-ups between the two parties. louisiana, charlie can speak better than i can about that, being his home state. but louisiana, south dakota, montana, west virginia.

levin is with the study for hate and extremism. gentlemen, i want you to start tonight -- it's your report, mark, so lead the way here.is in my close tonight on the show. i look at obama as a perfect american. i don't mean politically. we can agree left and right. you can argue about the drones, fiscal policy and all that stuff. but as a citizen. he went to school, never broke a law, raised a wonderful family, good husband, good family. i don't think he's got a speeding ticket. the guy does everything right. and he's really been pretty moderate on guns until the horror of newtown. i don't know what they're so afraid of him for except he happens to be black. is there some reason why he has sparked this explosion in right wing organizing? >> well, i think like you say, chris, i mean, it has to do with his color. what i would say is that with a lot of these groups it's not visceral clamlike racism. it's not we want to send people back to africa or along those lines. it's more i like at the white house, i see a black man there, i feel the culture is changing around me, by the way the economy is terrible. i can't get a job

in a six hour hearing senator carl levin took a very hard line with current and former jpmorgan executives, highlighting the risk management failure, fudged trading marksnd ultimately misleading public comments the bank made as it was racking up more than $6 billion in losses last year. ina drew appeared close to tears as she described the jpmorgan job as her life's work and her resignation as devastating. also singled out for grilling douglas braunstein and in senator levin's view misled the public. >> senator, my obligation on the call and the only thing i was thinking about was reporting based on what i knew at the time, the information as accurately as i could. in hindsight, senator, the positions and the portfolio did not act as a hedge, it changed dramatically. we misunderstood the risks. we misunderstood the complication in it. we ultimately misunderstood what the estimated performance of it would be. so in hindsight we got that wrong. >> reporter: late in the day official from the office of the controller of the currency also took a stand painting a picture of an arrogantly managed bank whose executives including jamie dimon told it to effectiv
