[applause] now, imagine where we were in 2008. barack obama became the president of the united states. nancy pelosi in 2008 was the speaker of the house

michele bachmann is once again proving her clown car bon fides. you first on michele bachmann. inspired, as everybody knows what then state senator barack obama said up in boston in 2004. guilt, it may be around the fringes, but i got to tell you, it was not the vote for a black per se to be president. it was about him and his story that inspired people to vote for him, what he had done. blind tested to become editor of the harvard law review, all that had nothing to do with race. and to accomplish what he was going to accomplish by being elected to the united states senate. the idea of something with guilt is a weird way to go at this conversation, i think. >> well, you would expect anything different from michele bachmann? she's got weird as her middle name, i think. yes, i don't remember people voting for barack obama out of guilt. it was out of enthusiasm, i think, and out of a recognition that the other candidate really wasn't so hot as a presidential candidate. >> well that's the truth. >> michele bachmann sort of hit the daily double here, though. she has offended minori

joining us now from washington, michele bachmann herself.so that's going to get some ladies mad at you, congresswoman. >> well, i ran for president of the united states. obviously i firmly believe that a woman can, should, and one day will be president of the united states. i think it will be a conservative woman who is our first president of the united states. and i want to encourage young women who get involved because we have a woman. but it was my personal experience that there are some women or there are some people in the united states who don't yet see that a woman should be president but the overwhelming majority do and some day we will have one. >> all right. now, hillary clinton obviously is the person in a position to become the first woman president at this point, other people may surface. there are americans who say, you know what? i'm unseizey with it. i just don't feel that, you know, even despite margaret thatcher and gold -- i don't have the rough and tumble nature of it. how do you respond to that? would you defend hillary

>> reverend, i would ask michele bachmann what would jesus do?nt to turn away people with preexisting conditions? would jesus want to see millions upon millions of people who do not have access to affordable health care go without? i would aspire to think that the answer is no. and more importantly, for the gop, where is that compassion in the conservatism they so espouse in being a more religious party? so i'm just dumbfounded when michele bachmann brings god into the equation, because what would a divine god, what would jesus do in an incident like this? >> i'm dumbfounded with you. for a long time, the right wingers kept predicting obamacare would simply collapse. watch this. >> a law that is so massive, burdensome, bureaucratic and confusing that it's collapsing under its own weight. >> the collapse of obama care, it's happening right before our eyes. >> i mean this when i say this. thing law is going to collapse under its own weight. >> but it hasn't collapsed. as you say, over three million have signed up. is all of this that we're seeing t

i'm michele bachmann.ed me to let most of my staff go, i'm still in the race to be your next president. >> this is mitt romney. this week's rant son people who listen to their discman too soft. blast that discman. blast that walkman. crank up that ll cool beans. >> i mean, these kind of impressions, jimmy, can help or hurt a politician. >> listen, what fallon is doing is he is channeling exactly what most americans think. okay, that michele bachmann parody was just spot-on. and frankly, i can't find -- i bet you if i polled all of my republican friends and said hey, the fallon parody of michele bachmann, they would be like oh my god, it's completely her. the point is if fallon can go and do these kinds of things, he reaches out to a larger audience. i'm glad he has taken the reins here. i'm not saying it because it's msnbc. i'm a 40 something guy. he is i think a 40 something guy. i can relate to him more. so our generation, the general x folks, i will stay up later to watch jimmy fallon. that's a good thi

listen to michele bachmann, a congresswoman.is. >> the president's legacy will be at the establishment of lawlessness in the united states. from stem to stern, this president has said the law doesn't apply to me. has he violated the law? in my opinion, yes, the president of the united states has violated the law. but we must have the support of the american people in order to have impeachment. >> no, you don't. >> impeachment? lawless? >> no. >> well, i think we have gone maybe a week or two without mentions of impeachment. so i guess we can't be terribly surprised that it's come back once again. look, this talk, this has been a regular staple of the conservatives rhetoric, the illegitimacy of this president. the talk itself isn't the issue. the craziness isn't necessarily the issue. the problem for the conservatives and particularly for the republicans it is the policies that they've put in place is not doing anything to help their cause. if you just had michele bachmann and just had ted nugent out there, but you didn't have th

is there a chance that michele bachmann is taking a shot at hilary clinton? >> is there a chance?s more than a bit of sour grapes. as you pointed out, she ran and lot of badly. not because she was a woman, but because he ran a terrible campaign. there was a lot of enthusiasm and her undoing appears to be michele bachmann according to her aides. she ran a terrible campaign, the country as a whole is not ready for a female president. >> emily, i will ask you the same question. is this a shot at hilary clinton? >> this was taken out of context. i got off the phone with the spokesman and he said this entire where this has gone is out of context in the piece. a lot of people say that and people believe women are not ready to be president. she personally obviously believes women are running for president and she wouldn't have run. what happened to her when she was running, there was a way double standard in the way she was treated versus men. she was asked in the debate whether she was going to be submissive to her husband in the white house. she was asked if she was a flake. she was tr

it's not just michele bachmann on the fringe. what?olitical strategy, this doesn't really make sense to me. it essentially is a statement of impotency on the co-equal branch of the government. they've essentially ground the government to a halt. you now essentially have some 80 members of the house declaring that it is they that are the lame ducks, at that they can do nothing to stop the president and his action is on jobs and things that are popular so i don't get it. >> also, it makes them look childish, to be honest. >> exactly. >> norm, a question i have is do they even have standing. in the research that i did, i don't think members of congress actually have standing to sue the president. >> they don't have standing, and this is a frivolous set of actions. that's not to say that some of the things that the president might do can't bring lawsuits. remember that the recess appointment case that the supreme court will soon decide was a case brought by a private business owner, noel canning company because they didn't like actions tak

michele bachmann, herman cain, rick santorum, rick perry commended gingrich, chris christie. now, a lot of you have kids. remember the sesame street songs. one of these things is not like the other. it is really, really hard to sort of look at all of these desperately wanted to nominate and then jump ball the way over to chris christie. and i just -- we have seen parties make huge swings, but it was usually after they had a crash and burn election. of course after goldwater in '64 republicans moved to the middle and nominated richard nixon and won the presidency, but they have a crash and burn election first. democrats have a crash and burn election in 72 with george mcgovern. republicans have not had their crash and burn. and so i just have a hard time seeing them do that. the other super big name is jim bush. i think he was a terrific governor of florida. i think he would be well-positioned and all of that. there is of less than thing. when push comes to sell that would cut down if he runs. is live despises politics. and you think, a running for president with a non support

congressman michele bachmann said, please don't hold guilt for a woman. surprised by these comments? >> reporter: i mean, there is so much to unpack in that. i think we could probably do it for an hour. but certainly, it's a little bit surprising. actually, very surprising for, as you said, a woman who ran for president in the last cycle to say something like that. i will tell you that i was actually with her the day that she dropped out of the race talking to some of her supporters who were convinced that she wouldn't do well because she was a woman and it was a double standard for her and that was their position even though she may have said one or two or ten things that hurt her in a way that maybe didn't hurt the male candidates. but, look, she is not alone in the republican party and slamming hillary clinton but the fact that she did it from the perspective of gender is pretty interesting. >> yeah. interesting. she's probably talking about her own personal experience if there wasn't this reservoir of feminist support as she hoped. dana bash, thank yo

also michele bachmann will be joining us as well. >> i saw that. tweeted that. >> i'll ask her to explain why she believes there's no pent-up desire for a woman to be president of the united states. >> controversialial remarks she made to cal thomas i think saying that there was guilt and that's factored into why obama was elected but there isn't guilt for a woman. >> yeah. we'll ask her what she means by that. >> sounds like a great show. looking forward it to. >>> coming up next, batman and the green hornet showing up on capitol hill. these two "a" list celebrities not there to talk comic books. the day we rescued riley was a truly amazing day. he was a matted mess in a small cage. so that was our first task, was getting him to wellness. without angie's list, i don't know if we could have found all the services we needed for our riley. from contractors and doctors to dog sitters and landscapers, you can find it all on angie's list. we found riley at the shelter, and found everything he needed at angie's list. join today at angieslist.com so i got

he is conservative, which i decide i'm not watching michelle bachmann or herman cain is actually painfulle in an articulate way, he has great command in the language and is skilled in that sense. that is how i would put it snow i think rush hit it. he is fighting for the soul of the republican party. you have to be as a democrat pretty happy when republicans are afraid of their own shadow, unwilling to fight and afraid people like you are going to go out there and blame him for kicking granny over the cliff. that fear seems to have overtaken them. >> i don't have a lot of influence on what the republican party does. a lot of people say look, we went with bob dole and john mccain, we went down this road. everybody said this was the pragmatic thing to do. you know, whether -- i don't know if pragmatism or idealism, that is a concept that the republicans have to flush out in 2016. >> don't you need, regardless of whether you run on the left or right, don't you need a vision that will inspire people? like obama, he had a plan. and he got people chanting yes, we ask. and ted cruz, maybe the p

this morning we heard from michele bachmann and steve king. strangely the one thing we haven't heard much about is the veto of that arizona bill sb 1062, the one that made headlines across the country. and we do need to start with that veto, because it does seem to be the latest evidence of a recent wave building in this country for gay rights, a wave that started with doma and the supreme court last year, then made its way to kansas and arizona, one that can be seen today in kentucky and texas, and has some on the right crying ironically discrimination. last night jan brewer vetoed sb 1062. she took her time, didn't take any questions, but did finally brings the ax down it was difficult to find anyone in either political party, who didn't think that that was the right decision. mitt romney, both gop senators, businesses like apple, delta and american airlines, all came down on the side of a veto. of course in politics like life, you can't please all the people all the time. >> unfortunately, though, this is how fundamental freedoms are trampl

representative michele bachmann is here coming up. and we are tracking that deadly winter storm making its way across america. from the rockies to the midwest, and eventually all the way across the midwest. 32 states in the storm's there has been a lot of confusion about it. >> basically, it reported that obamacare will discourage work, that at the lower end of the income scale, people might decide to work less, perhaps even part time because they can receive a generous federal subsidy to buy insurance and at the higher end ever the scale it found that it might discourage additional work because of obamacare's additional taxes so the net result was that there would be two and a half million fewer people who want to enter the labor force and right now we are at historically low levels of workforce participation. >> why would the white house think by the response it seems like they it were trying to sell people on it it's a good idea to discourage people from working? >> they are trying to spin it as these are people who are just workin

2016 and senator john mccain made the prediction yesterday on cmn after he was asked about michele bachmann'sthat america is not ready for a female president. >> i would bet, as much as i hate to add it it, right now, this is why we have campaigns, but right new not election were tomorrow, hillary clinton would most likely be the president of the united states. >>> the overwhelming favorite as democrats' choice is hillary clinton right now. the poll also shows hillary clinton ahead of potential republican contenders such as new jersey governor, chris christie and former florida governor, jeb bush. >> the east coast is ready for the run of the polar very -- visibility was is poor at o'hare that hundreds of lits were canceled. potholes are a problem across the country with crates damaging cars. in michigan they use dynamite to break up 2 feet of ice hoping to an void an ice jam. >> in ten ten, -- in tennessee nashville residents are cleaning you have after line anyone struck or came close to hitting the batman building in downtown nashville. thousands had powered knocked out. >>> a check on wea

michele bachmann said she does not feel the country is ready for a woman president.kate observer shayne and kirsten powers. i know you probably thought about this very much kirsten, there has got to be some downside to having a woman president, right? something something that may not fit with that office, correct? >> i'm going to say no, bill. >> >> there is no downside to having a woman. >> just because you are female something would -- let me ask you this. what's the downside of man being president? >> you have got three years? look at the guys we have in there. >> that's because they are a man or because of the people that are in office. >> look, men are men and women are women. there is a difference, kate. there is a difference between the genders now, men, they are tied up and a will the of them macho image and that kind of thing and act like you are not going to push me around discussion member as women. got to be a downside for a woman. do you know one? >> you know, i'm having a tough time with this one, too bill. think at this depends on the individual. of co

even tea party members to resist the urge to go to battle again over the debt ceiling, even michelle bachmann telling the "washington post," my assessment is that most of us don't think it is the time to fight. instead boehner is focusing on a small deal involving military pensions that he hopes can even attract democrats longer term president obama's poor job approval ratings makes him a questionable asset. for some democratic senators, four senators in states that obama did not carry in 2012 are facing tough fights with two more democratic seats likely to turn republican after the democrats holding seats retire. one unnamed senator who sat in on a meeting with president obama told the "washington post," the president said he knew he was not popular in some states so he would not be offended if he was not invited to visit them this year. krystle ball and hogan, i'm glad you called each other so you can match. dana, let me start with you, maybe about 30 minutes ago and something he said caughtmy attention. >> now he's running around the country telling everyone he's going to keep acting on hi

among the speakers thob michele bachmann is speaking right there on the screen, plus steve king and tea party senator mike lee. rand paul and ted cruz are headlining in the afternoon. we'll have more on that story later. >>> coming up first, president obama making good on a promise that he made to young minority men. will the promise ultimately breed results? that of course is a question on a lot of people's minds. we're talking about the initiative today with his labor sect tore, tom perez, here on jansing & co. that's up next. you leave the house in good shape? yea. yea, of course. ♪ [ sportscaster talking on tv ] last-second field go-- yea, sure ya did.

michele bachmann in a new interview said she this many americans aren't ready for a female president.said directly, i think there was a cachet about having an african-american president because of gift people don't hold that guilt for a woman. what do you make of those comments? >> it's a free country. i would bet, my friend, as much as i hate to admit it that right now this is why we have campaigns, but right now if the election were tomorrow hillary clinton would most likely be the president of the united states. she wouldn't be my candidate. but when you look at the growth of women in the senate, and i believe now 20 up from just a handful a few years ago, when you look at them in the house of representatives, look at the mayors the governors, we're proud we're had governors in arizona, two in a row. we have a long history of women governors. so i just have a very different reading of the american political scene. >> when it comes to the potential male republican candidates, two names are always in the. chris christie, ted cruz. i want to play you a clip of ted cruz talking to cnn'

watershed moment, obviously 2010 with the election of 63 republicans and the gaining of control as michele bachmanntatives. the consequence of that has been the political polarization, the gridlock, the obama hatred that we have seen dominate the political landscape since that moment. >> but i will challenge you there, juan, currently, it does not look like the tea party in candidates and primaries are positioned very well currently. for example, in colorado, ken buck has just stepped out of that race for u.s. senate there are other races in which tea party candidates are not leading in the primaries. and that the establishment candidates are actually doing well with the support of many tea party groups. it's also important to note the tea party is not monolithic. it is many different -- >> -- that's what i said right from the start it starts with the direct mail thing. but i don't understand how you are challenging me because what you are seeing now is an establishment republican response that says we he have to do more at the primary level to try to pick candidates because they remember christine

michele bachmann said this, justin amish said this, people that normally give boehner a hard time, whore making the debt ceiling fight easy, i think that's because the first fight they got with obama was last october and they lost badly. >> right, you're referring to to i think it should cost him his speakership. you also have the inner play here, where we've had more serious policy about the people in the balance. take a listen to senator mitch mcconnell on this. >> i think we have sort of an irresolvable conflict here. the senate insists on comprehensive, the house says it won't go to conference on comprehensive and wants to look at step by step. i don't see how you get to an t an out come with two bodies in a different place. >> patty murray and paul ryan, very far apart on budget priorities, they made a deal. >> they did. you can make a deal here. all the ingredients that you need are known to everybody. the question, this goes back to philip's original point is the political will. do they think it is going to be more advantageous to go ahead and come to an agreement on immigration
