road to majority conference down at national harbor some of the featured speakers there include michelle bachmann, kevin mccarthy, chris christie. bob jindle. why no liberal elected officials invited to speak at your conference to present an opposing point of view? guest: the purpose of this conference is to equip and to energize and to mobilize our grassroots supporters. so the purpose of this conference is not really to present both sides. the purpose of this conference is to take pro family and prolife activists and energize them and equip them to go back to their states and communities and organize. we have in the past had democratic elected officials. we'll do so in the future. i'm on record as saying at next year's conference if hillary clinton is announced as next year's candidate that we will inviolet her. i doubt she is likely to want to come or she is likely to get an enthusiastic reception. but we'll certainly invite her. i invited her husband when he was running for president. he never came. but we will be happy to invite her. and we do have democrats on the program this weekend. i do

for republicans, now suing the president of the use of these executive orders, the dustup with michelle bachmannnk it's a waste of time with all due respect to republicans. i understand their frustration but we got a whole bevy of troubles. >> we do, and i think -- i can understand the frustration of the republicans in congress. the president ignored the law. has been very selective in what he decided to enforce. he believeses his phone and pen are equal to two branches of government and they're not. i don't see it's going to go anywhere. i think republicans need to focus their time on winning elections. but i'm not saying it's a terrible idea. i don't know where they legally have standing to sue him in court, maybe they do. i'm not a lawyer. thank goodness i'm not a lawyer. >> but you're a great host and you have a great show. >> we try. this weekend, just -- justine ya pelletier who was held by massachusetts massachusetts for 16 months. her first public appearance and we're excited she is home. >> we are watching closely. i hope you run for office because the whole competition thing of what i

if news anchor man was chastising michele bachmann. they are grabbing at anything. this is about undermining this president. this has nothing to do with executive action. has nothing to do with not executing the law. this is all about they were determined from day one to undermine president barack obama. >> you're right, and it hasn't stopped. it's got a viciousness and personal quality to it that unlike anything i've ever seen. even the clinton impeachment wasn't as personal as vindictive and hateful as this is. but you know what? we said last weekend on your show. they are doing things and i think congressman would agree with me, they are about to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. they are giving us ammunition to go to the american people and say, these guys are crazy. they are doing completely out of the box things. they are not of merit. we have people without unemployment compensation who desperately need it. we need a minimum wage increase. come on, people. give us a democratic congress again. we will get those important things done. we will have an infr

, and congressman jim mcdermott from washington, very liberal, michele bachmann is very conservative.e full spectrum. one thing that people agree on, justina, the way you were treated should never happen to someone guess, and justina's law will cut off any federal funding to any health organization or supposed health organization that would carry out experiments on the child without the family's permission like this, and i think it's so wonderful not that you had to go through it, but that because of your parents, their tenacity and strength and your family's strength, hopefully these laws will change and no one will ever have to go through what you've got through. that's what we hope for. >> my gosh, that's awesome. >> it is awesome. justina, you're the only one i ever said anything to, so i have to ask, long term, what do you hope happens? with all of this, for your family, for you. >> just to get back to normal, go on vacation like we used to. >> go to movies. >> yeah, just do normal things. like we share a room together. it's been a long time for her to be in the house. she wants

that -- if it is king or michele bachmann or somebody like that, but they are not running. there is some discontentment that somebody of their ilk isn't running. there are not many people to the right of raw labrador -- of raul labrador. he is one of 12 people who did not vote for john boehner for speaker in 2013. and if you had boehner and his top lieutenant was someone who didn't vote for him as speaker, that would be interesting. host: what are you looking for this week? guest: this leadership race is going to be kind of fascinating to watch. we will see how that goes. you have the faith and freedom coalition forum. a lot of the 2016 hopefuls will come in. mccarthy will also speak. do we see some of the sting -- steve king cost discussion -- type ofe king discussion? host: we will follow your work on the pbs website. thank you for being with us. who follows the house leadership or bloomberg "washington journal >> on the , 2014. a former state department and national security council member will discuss u.s. military options in iraq, and the associated press reporter will

a showdown with michele bachmann and i respect her, but not the way that the washington is going in thecase to try to sue the president of the united states over the use of the executive orders. gas, my only point is, isn't that a waste of time. >> okay. full disclosure, how many pumpkin lattes did you have before that interview? >> you are a despicable human being. >> and i got on the twitter feed and i got the noise. my name was on it, because it was insane. >> and i asked the i.t. people. >> i said, why am i blamed for this. i am blamed for so much, and this is a waste of time and so many things, and is this really, really going to result in anything except for maybe at the debates at the federal society. who cares! >> and i respect what she is trying to do and the frustration of the president with the executive orders, but the point is that other presidents have had executive orders and be careful what you wish for, and this guy may be overstepping the bounds and "m not surprised, but when a republican president gets in there and the democrats try to pull the same stupt, and they ha

on monday i visited michele bachmann's home state and mine. range in virginia, minnesota, those jobs are in danger. cheap steel being dumped in the market is choking the american steel industry. boehner and bachmann, their home states and ground zero for job loss and he has the nerve to walk around and ask where are the jobs? they're right in your own backyard, dude! they are doing nothing to address the problem. boehner is actually calling for more trade deals. meanwhile, they are out trying to sue the president of the united states and make the case to the american people that this is a good use of time, effort and american tax dollars. that's a hell of a sale, i think. i don't think they can get it done. get your cell phones out. i want to know what you think. today's question, does john boehner care more about jobs or suing the president? text a for jobs and text b for suing the president, you can always go to ed.msnbc.dom and we'll bring you results later in the show. these two gentlemen have fought for workers as much as anyone we could

>> what are democrats going to do without michelle bachmann when she retires this year?ise less money. comments like that do undermine what republicans are going to do. or are trying to do. >> perry, check out these statistics here. president obama's use of executive orders is actually lower than his predecessors during the same point in his presidency. according to rachel maddow's team, obama has the lowest average use of executive orders in 117 years. so given all of that, given the numbers, given the facts, how does this suit really hold up in court? >> i wonder if it will even get to court. but it's not really about executive orders the republicans are upset about. it's executive actions. the immigration thing i referred to, the epa policy changes, the changes in the health care -- the aca implementation, that's what they're upset about. executive actions, not executive orders. usually the courts are wary to get into involvement of a dispute between the president and the legislators. it's hard to imagine the court will intervene in these disputes. but it's really abo

talking about the inflammatory rhetoric of fox news the inflammatory rhetoric of lock n load michele bachmann the inflammatory rhetoric of glenn back and show you know i got to tell you even one of the of the very liberal web sites for whom i write i wrote a piece about the murder in the killing of a house cat belonging to a democratic candidate in the deep sea. now where the killer is killed the cat carved the word liberal on its side and left it for the candidates children to find that the publication wouldn't publish the piece because it mentioned that the killer is were using some similar rhetoric to sean hannity they said we don't associate people's rhetoric with acts of violence well you know i kind of think it's not in a libelous way but i think i kind of think it's appropriate to say we're not trying to take away anybody's civil rights or rights of free speech but when you speak violent rhetoric and violent things happen the killer in knoxville who had o'reilly and hannity as and goldberg spoke on his shelf if that happened to you or me tom we'd be devastated and i think it's right to

michelle bachmann says she extremely disappointed and overwhelmed by what she has heard. they watched video from sergeant bergdahl, from january, she found that to be problematic because it was outdated. from the obama administration, including from congresswoman chikowsky from illinois, who often sides with the administration, following the model of leave no soldier behind, tony. >> lilibby, do you know the sene of capitol hill? >> when some of the members came out they expressed some appreciation getting to seize the video, and they were distressed at the condition that sergeant bergdahl was in. but from the likes of congresswoman bachmann tonight, that doesn't seem to be the case. before the house armed services committee, chuck hagel will be appearing, the critics have two questions, one, of course, how this decision was made, whether cock was consulted enough. they say no. and two, whether this was a good exchange, whether it was a smart idea to give over these taliban fighters that have been detained in exchange for sergeant bergdahl. >> exactly, libby casey, from w

. >> was that michele bachmann's influence? >> it was the texas eagle forum in particular that pushed this language. and, you know, when you look at the texas gop platform, instead of a single piece of paper that lists a bunch of principles that members of a party can coalesce around, it's been this albatross around the neck of a lot of candidates. it's this kitchen sink list of all these laws that members of the platform committee would like to see passed but they're not courageous enough to run for office themselves. they spent years -- >> well, you're a gay man. maybe you can explain. i just think why do you think they go to the middle course, we can fix these people? >> i don't think that's a middle course at all. >> to them. to them. why do they go from tearing society apart to question can put you together. >> right. you're trying to look at the silver lining there. >> i'm trying to figure out what they're thinking. >> i think what they're thinking is that they're trying to appease a very small but very vocal segment of t
