michele bachman was entirely right in saying every american must pay even a dollar in federal income-tax. it is corrosive. it is corrosive. to human character to pay nothing. 47% of americans do not pay a penny in federal income-tax. i have the bizarre notion that there's more wisdom in the bible that in the new york times. very big dividing line between me and others. the biblical notion is every israelite gave half. if they were too pour they would bar with. there is no dignity and not paying. that is what the liberal doesn't understand because human dignity is not a big deal on the left. equality is big but not dignity. there is no dignity in having others pay for you. it is humiliating. in a jewish life is one of the ironies in life that jews are liberals. this is one of the battles of my life. you know what i tell jewish liberals? why don't you preach what you practice? jewish liberals live utterly conservative lot -- lives. emphasis on education and marriage. jews are so big on marriage. as to the jew sees a single human being i think i know somebody. i think i know somebody. i too

i think michele bachman said something that was a faux pas yesterday when she mentioned the possibility for energy resources in the everglades. when i see her next week, i will straighten her out about that. [laughter] [applause] >> there was one question i am not familiar with regarding the keystone, pipeline. are you familiar with that? >> that is a pipeline coming out of canada, an oil pipeline. oil shale. >> do you support the keystone pipeline to solve some of our energy needs in the future? >> yes i do. i think right now when we looked at -- [applause] i would rather have a pipeline to canada than continue to send our money to saudi arabia, venezuela, or possibly to canada. we need to be very concerned about a spanish company called repsol. they are looking to drill off the international waters of key west. about 10 miles away. how they are going to go into deaths that are deeper than the -- depths that are deeper than deepwater horizon did. if you understand slant drilling, you understand you can offset under the water and go into the continental shelf. but they are going to esta

but michelle bachman and governor romney also have things to argue in their favor. i'm a close friend of rick santorum. so there are a lot of -- and newt gingrich may be the single smartest guy in the entire race. there are a lot of good people. >> is he conceivable, you think, that a tea party candidate like a michelle bachmann could end up being the nominee? >> sure is. sure is conceivable. you know, it's very hard to tell exactly what the impact of the worsening economy is on the american people. and the reality is i think that the president doesn't realize how bad the economy really s otherwise, he wouldn't be playing this political game. he'd be stepping up and acting more like a leader and taking a risk on whatever plan he believes in. but this economy is devastating to many, many people. and that can have a very big impact. it can be a real benefit to a populous candidate. and if you look at michelle bachmann, that's what she is. she's a populous candidate. >> funlly, rudy, what's the latest you could leave it personally to make a decision as to whether or no

i have my eye on a particular republican candidate i would have to say representative michelle bachman. i see her doing well. host: were you a page in the senate? gues guest: i was. host: who else? yes, sir, what is your name? guest: joe west. one reason i came is i got the nomination in january but i always liked journalism, mainly sports and i write for my city newspaper and work for the radio and thought this would be a good opportunity to broaden and learn more. i actually learned -- i was planning on majoring in journalism but i have learned through the past week that journalism mint be the best major to get into for journalism. host: why not? guest: i don't know. i have heard that three or four times from different speakers. i didn't really detail it. i don't know. host: well, this is all about journalism as you can see up there, the washington journalism media conference. but i'm anxious to find out from others about journalism and if you have an attitude about it. something here that i will get you involved in but we have so many hands up. this lady has something to say. where

and if michele bachman wins the spa poll handily which i don't rule out, she will put herself somewhere where rick perry will have to condition tend with here in iowa because she will have a big head start. >> ros what would you add to that, matthew? >> the only thing i will add to that i totally agree with mark it is a big weekend for all those reasons. the straw vote usually never picks the winner but it usually always picks the losers. so out of this we'll have on additiona caidate come in tomorrow, rick perry, the governor. but i think we'll eliminate probably two o thr or four over time because of the straw poll. so while the str poll won't cessarily-- hasn't necessarily er picked the republican nominee, per se, it usually always pears the field down and says these are the guys who aren't going to go down. >> rose: how is it conducted. you have to be an iowa registered vor. by the time the election happens. and so there is going to be a bunch of 17-year-olds involved in this straw poll for the first time that did not exist before. >> rose: did the debate have impact, do you think,

the woman who won the straw poll, michelle bachman! >> nobody thinks michelle bachman could win. le, john huntsman could win. the idea that the media suddenly decided this is between bachman, romney and now rick perry is nonsense. there is still a long way to go. >> what about ron paul? why is nobody talking about him? he's won three straw polls -- or not won, but barely behind bachman. >> brian: firmly dug in, very successful politician and doctor. thanks so much. great panel. tamara, mickey, and gretchen, good job. let me tell you what's coming up 'cause we still have more show. many college students support taxing the rich, making them pay their fair share, so to speak. what happens when those same students were asked to share their high gpa's? >> i do give gpa points to students that don't deserve it. it isn't fair. >> brian: right. meet the college grad behind the camera. and knowing your finances are more important than ever before. how can you get your kids to understand? dave ramsey knows and here to answer those questions, he's going to -- you're going to like it. he says
