obama defeated. obama against newt, against new defeated. obama against sarah palin, your favorite, eleanor. dead heat. >> you know, it's a long way to 2012. the democrats who are going to take this brunt this november are the house democrats and the president came into office. the improbability of him winning the election, i think, got people thinking he could transform all of the problems. there is a bloomberg poll that shows people blame president bush far more than they do president obama for all of the existing problems. they are impatient and this president has had extraordinary achievements. it will take months, if not years for the person on the street to feel that and it's the economic. it's the unemployment rate that is pulling this president down. he in popularity is where president reagan was at the same point in his first term. he used -- >> you think this is reagan, good luck. >> use the slogan, stay the course and it works well for reagan and i bet it will work well for obama. >> do yo

[laughter] will they run away from president obama? >> in swing districts, anything but the safest democrat seats, democrats will run away from president obama. >> stephanie running for re-election in south dakota already with an ad about how she voted against health care. i think that's a yes. >> you won't see the president out on the campaign trail very much. >> yeah, i think they're going to run away from him. chris: getting voters to turn out is one of the classic art forms in american politics. in the 1960 kennedy-nixon campaign, both side tried to time their final barnstorming trips to excite the troops. they told kennedy to hold off the chicago stop until the end. look at how all the trade unions showed up at the last weekend. same story on the nixon side. he brought president eisenhower to new york the last wednesday before the election. there they are in harold's square, macy's right before the election day. that same year lyndon johnson used the old-fashioned whistle stop to rally the rural stop. >> god bless you, most democr

"the obama diaries." the idea is this is fiction, you found this in an underground garage, similar to the watergate tapes. give us a little history of the book. >> larry, i didn't ask for the diaries. they came to me. you are familiar with the watergate complex, right? >> larry: yes, many times. >> the manicure, pedicure salon there. i was coming back from a manicure. this envelope of all these thing that looked like diary entries to me popped up on the hood of my suv. i was shaking, larry, trembling. frightening. i started looking through these things. it looks like michelle obama's diary, looks like barack obama's diary, joe biden's diary. i said it can't be. then i looked at the historical narrative, larry, of the last 18 months. i'm talking about minor things like the health care reform, the stimulus bill, the auto bailout, the trips to europe and so forth. and the diaries, lo and behold seem to match up with the historical narrative. i can't vouch for authenticity, although i have, larry, tried to ve

has the obama administration declared war on big business desk ? >> we moved this government away from government of the people to government by regulators. >> bp kept the oil spill. >> i understand house democrats are angry because they see the white house throwing them into the bus. >> also, why are house democrats feeling unloved by the white house? >> we have no problem with the tea party. we have a problem with them tolerate racism in their ranks. >> the naacp takes on the tea party. >> we have always denounced racism and recall it out whether it is tea party crashers from the left are members who have attended our events. >> these are the toughest restrictions on banks since the great depression but some people say it does not go far enough. three republicans on board came 22 months after the lehman brothers collapse threatened to collapse the entire economy. democrats say it will bring more oversight and transparency. republicans said the federal government is extending its reach deep into the private sector and will drive financial sector j

president obama's poll numbers dropped. new doubts about the economic recovery. and a top house democrat faces ethics charges. how will it play out in november? we'll ask two of the country's most colorful political figures. from the right, newt gingrich. from the left, howard dean. >>> a raisial controversy once again ensnares the white house. we'll talk about race and politics with the reverend jesse jackson. also the bush tack cuts for the wealthy. we will ask our sunday regulars whether letting taxes rise is the right thing to do. and our power play of the week. oprah's chef teaches inner city kids how to take care of themselves. all right now on "fox news sunday." hello again from fox news in washington. with the mid term campaign intensifying we asked two brig thinkers to discuss it. from vermont, howard dean. former governor and chair of the democratic party and here in studio, former house speaker nude gingrich. welcome back to "fox news sunday." >> good to be with you. >> chris: let's start with the case of shirley sherrod who was forced to resign becaus

having obama at the top is one thing. so we have the support and the spark of racial dialogue and discourse in the bottom, and the suppression at the top. the symbolic representation of barack obama's success does not translate well to most african- american people who are subjected to vicious forms of inequality and racial injustice that prevail. a prison system where a disproportionate number of african-americans are in prison. the inability of most people of color to find decent employment. 16.5% of african-american people are unemployed. these are the racialized issues that need to be addressed, from the white house and the broader public. >> two things. when obama came into office, i don't think anybody expected a "post-racial society," but we did have some hopes for leadership on the issue of race. and leadership consisting of knowing when to lower the temperature on race-related conflicts. i think that is extremely important. indeed, as well telling kids america is... black kids, "america is wide open to whatever a

is going to matter to obama at all but if the republicans say god forbid box new says it then obama gets scared and maybe will leave earlier however how many things can he keep buckling on him and some of the things that i think definitely got him elected and got people excited was the fact that he was going to close guantanamo bay that was the first thing he did his first day in office and as he promised that within a year it would be closed that still hasn't happened even simple little things like not telling the f.b.i. if they're not allowed to do raids anymore in california in the med a medical marijuana farms and you have those raids are still going on every day we're just not seeing anything happen so how much longer can he keep riding this wave do you think that in two thousand and twelve he's going to be completely gone is going to be a you know a one term president. well look you know and i knew dozens of more examples let alone surely sharod van jones acorn i mean the guy loves to buckle and but the real problem with obama is that he did what he said he was going to do he got t

president obama approval rating is mid-to-high 40s.artisan identification, reliable, slowly changing indicator, which democrats' lead on that has been two points if you average out -- >> chris: if you ask -- >> it changes much less quickly than do you like the president or this piece of legislation or that? it's plus two democratic in 2005. it went up steadily to plus seven democrat. if you average the polls, and then if you average them this year it's to three. and then last poll had republicans over the democrats for the first time in five years in the fox poll. there is more going on than we just don't like the bill or that bill. people are looking at the presidenand the democratic congress and the big government agenda. saying no thanks. >> chris: juan? >> i think it's true. right now, part of the, you know, argument in washington is obama a socialist? a poll that 55% said he was a socialist. the idea that his policies are too liberal have taken route. -- taken root. if you ask people to reiterate what we heard, the stimulus didn't

it's coming down from the obama administration. and that is to -- >> larry: that has nothing to do with the federal judge's decision. >> ah -- >> larry: you're not questioning a federal judge -- >> not really, not -- but i do believe there's certainly some influence coming down from obama for her to defeat arizona's attempt to re-establish itself as a sovereign state. >> larry: jorge, i gather you agree with this. it is, jorge, though, just a temporary injunction. it can be released in two days if they file an appeal to it, right? >> right, it can change anytime. the important thing is that for hispanics and for immigrants, it's a step in the right direction, but it is simply not enough. what we're doing right now, larry, is managing a problem, not finding a long-term solution. obama promised he would have an immigration bill during his first year in office and he broke a promise. democrats don't have the political courage to push for immigration reform in congress. republicans are missing in action on immigration. where are the 11

i think one of the reasons y obama one iwhy obama one is thef the exceptional listen. there is a fear that america will lose to china, and we're not the leading economy. we're looking for someone more optimistic. we're looking for the optimistic voice. he was the optimistic voice. now those folks still have those same fears. there are people inside the white house who do get it. they say that scott brown won for the same reason we won. people are angry and upset and feel that change has not come and they still do not feel like they have control of their own lives. wall that was rationalism -- while there was rationalization, there was no truth. when was the last time we had three straight change elections? that is essentially what we have had. it is almost unprecedented. >> change in different directions. back to the white house people and interpreting scott brown's victory is another vote for barack obama -- >> they did not say that. >> karl rove really respected republicans to hold a majority of congress in 2006 and that turned out to be delusional. this reminds me o

closed doors we're going to be at the issue to get both sides of the story and then next we'll ask is obama the victim of a big old media bully sources seem to say yes is the president's historic legislation seem to have gone unnoticed compared to the shirley sherrod story so we're going to find out what it will take to give the president a positive media presence there and we're turning the tables on the unemployment issue we'll tell you about the people who lost their we always tell you about the people who lost their jobs but what about the ones that can't get a job in the first place also down with the recent college graduate who can tell us about her struggles firsthand and a new study from the washington post reveals that seventy five percent of oil lobbyists used to work for the federal government should be shocked or does that explain exactly why we just can't seem to wean ourselves off of oil and it is captain america unpatriotic a feature film with the classic superhero features him as a less of a flag waver and more of a typical superhero protecting the people present really the

a lot of people call president obama mr. obama, obama so and so. showing no respect. michael steele reflected what the republican party -- what the republican party of which i am a member have in their hearts and very racist all told. thank you for taking my call. host: here's another twitter message. steele wants to step down, that should be his stigs. the media should shut up. an a.p. story out of kabul in afghanistan, general david petraeus, the new commander, he called for unity in the civilian and military effort to turn back the taliban saying quote in this important endeavor cooperation is not optional. these were his first public comments since he arrived friday night to assume the command. official ceremony happens tomorrow. in case you're wondering about general mcchrystal, "the new york times" points out his mentor says he is crushed by the change in his circumstances. the white house sent a powerful signal by sending general mcchrystal to retire with all four stars but the general's most important mentor admiral mike mcmillan described him as crushed of co

bush because of obama. because of obama? he's one senator. >> larry: hold on. hold on. hold on!ou're losing the host. when you lose the host, we're in trouble. aisha, what do you think? >> i think there are three points to make here. first of all, is if you are a strict constructionalist, which most conservatives are, this was a constructionalist decision. it was based on constitutional principles of pre-emption and the state stepping in an area that is not their jurisdiction legally. that's the first thing. the second thing is the reason the government sued on those grounds is that's all they needed to sue on. they didn't need to sue secondarily on grounds of discrimination. even if that would have been the effect of the law. all they needed to do was prove pre-emption, which they did. tertiarily i agree with you this is a huge problem. the last administration with a republican president and republican congress could not solve. and what you have are conservatives who are more interested in being right than doing what's right. and if they were really interested in collaborating

logan welcome to cross talk i'm peter to go toward a two state solution talks for toxic the obama administration has publicly mended fences with israel after a chill in relations isn't enough to restart what is called the peace process or just the strategy of endless negotiation. if you can. discuss the prospects for peace in the middle east i'm joined by robert fisk in cairo he's the middle east correspondent for the independent and the author of numerous international bestsellers in jerusalem we cross to dan dyker the director of strategic affairs of the world jewish congress and a foreign policy fellow at the jerusalem center for public affairs and another member of our cross talk team yell on the hunger are a gentlemen both of you have been on the program before you so you know how it works you can jump right in that's crosstalk rules it robert fisk if i can go to you first ok we've seen a public mending offenses with netanyahu and obama not a long time back and the process michel's in the middle east doing as little shuttle can the united states on this be quite blunt can the united states

so as you can tell obama and other officials are cautiously optimistic but admit that there really is progress being made here so what happened to make b.p. finally get their act together well perhaps they realize how angry americans are the crude oil is destroying their lives i think this organization called the gulf summed up their anger pretty well. it's killing. me. we'll. tell you. all right so now that there is an end in sight well all the news networks talk about c.n.n. and fox news have basically turned their stations into oil watch twenty ten with constant updates on the spill and even dedicating a small little portion of their screen to the underwater camera and today the newspapers are switching gears to the titles are no longer when will it end but rather is this really the end or the cap is good news but the spill isn't over yet . but i think it looks like the news sources are desperately trying to inject something menacing and dangerous into the headline here i think that they're going to miss the oil spill and i for one would like to put a positive spin on this story th

note use to say -- barack obama is used to say -- obama used to say "yes, we can," and she is the whatou started this. "yes, we can." she supported initially hillary clinton note, .the hillary clinton, and after she lost the nomination, she went to support barack obama. even before cesar chavez. >> i am not sure your ju saylian say julian or something else. >> he is one of the first persons to denounce discrimination of latinos. i remember one of the paragraphs of ts professor, when he was saying it -- he remembers reading signs that would say "no latinos and dogs allowed in a mark pryor -- in the park." when you have that, in you succeed, that is an example to follow in your life. -- and use 60. >> and university of notre dame professor, and he is no longer alive -- in you succeed. -- and you succeed. how do you say this other name? >> used to work for la raza, and if we put everyone together, cesar chavez and delores and julian, you'll find right now the father of all latinos, it would be the man fighting for latino rights of is live. >> the you know him? >> yes, i know him. he has b

the middle east and so they now just want to be seen as tough on russia because obama was i think it's a mix of political opportunism and ignorance pushed together so jim de mint in a recent speech referred to russia as the soviet union half a dozen times he wasn't aware that the cold war had ended right sarah palin probably is aware of it but just doesn't care this is part of their opposition to anything that obama does on farms and he's in favor of that it's over she sees it from her house you would think so but you know her expertise notwithstanding she wants to make this a big issue she needs to make this a big issue she wants to attack obama on anything and everything and in foreign policy this is the thing that's going on now so this is the thing they've decided to start crowing about ok but sarah palin of course she makes her career out of attacking obama because she doesn't have anything of substance to really say she doesn't have really experience mitt romney here is interesting too i guess you could say he's more of a businessman than a politician but this guy many say is the

obama coski job rating is still at 46% national level -- obama's job rating. the 1982went lower in cycle, but there is the point made earlier come up look where the house districts are. they have 89 districts that are leaning to one party or another. 14 of those -- if you disaggregate them by black populations, not many have more than 14% black population. another 13 have about average black populations. 62 are in districts with a lone black population. in most of those districts his job rating is 40 positive, not hugely does times come up but not terrific. -- not usually disastrous. >> we are moving toward a more diverse society. one-quarter of congressional districts in the 1990's -- at least 30% of the population is non-white. today, it is half. it was 13% minority in 1994 to 26% in 2008. look at obama's approval, there are tremendous differentials. in the mid 30's among white voters without a college education. around 45 with white voters with a college education. when you look at those pieces of the contrast in the way he is being received and the demogra

and president obama he's a globish president. origins in kansas, kenya, hawaii, his speeches are very simple. and his campaign slogans flow like yes we can, change we can believe in, they're globish. globish is not my word, he took the first inaugural address and he tried to turn it into globish and he couldn't because it already was. >> so what happened to allow this to be uncoupled from politics? people learn english now and it opens doors rather than putting up walls. >> i think it has to do with the end of the cold war and the boom in the economy, the american economy particularly n the 1990's, combined with the i.t. revolution. you have three things, a perfect storm of change. plus, a new generation. young people growing up who have not really lived through the traumas of the past 50 years. for them, language does not have -- is not loaded in the way that had been for the previous generation. >> robert mccrum, fun speaking globish with you. >> thank you very much. >> brown: again, the major developments of the day: tropical

i have faith in obama. but i think the -- what do you call it -- a slanted question because you added congress because congress to make, the democrats are trying and the republicans all they know is one word, a two-letter word. i am a marine corps veteran and i feel like the republican agenda has destroyed my country. an example -- i went to the va clinic and had some issues, and they were related to my vietnam experience. and one of the procedures was not related because it was not in my record as a va benefit. you know they charge my insurance company? i called the va and dino what their response was? host: go ahead and tell us. caller: it is a lot. veterans, and issue that they feel let -- excuse me? they feel like -- that is an example of republican agenda. they preach that they are for the military but when it comes to benefits for military families and va -- and passed military, they don't do it. host: the view from curtis in pensacola, florida. republican line. jeremy, annapolis, maryland. do you hav

so, how would this tie into president obama? caller: it is the republicans who are holding it up, but it all comes down to the president. i think if they get this passed, his numbers would improve. host: this is steven from vancouver, washington, on the line for democrats. your thoughts about president obama and whether or not he can rebound, and how? caller: i think he can. i think he needs to stop tried to please the republicans. he has done too much of that. he needs to start looking at what his own party wants him to do. host: what do you mean by he has done too much? caller: he was originally trying to bring republicans into all the changes. basically, they just put up a stone wall and said no. they became the party of no, as they say. he was still trying to please them. he went and had a meeting with them. sit down with them, and tried to find some common ground with them. that is kind of his personality. it seems like he has always been that way. host: more from the sunday op-ed piece -- how can obama rebound? this is fro

it robert fisk if i can go to you first ok we've seen a public mending offenses with netanyahu and obama not a long time back and the process michel's in the middle east doing as little shuttle can the united states will this be quite blunt can the united states be a fair broker in finding some kind of solution because it seems to have gone on forever. no i don't think you can the last time that america really complained about israel seriously was when eisenhower ordered the israelis along with the british and the french to get out of so is in one hundred fifty six ever since then the americans basically go along with israeli policy in fact if you listen to department of state spokesman and you listen to israeli spokesman and you mix it all up you can't tell who is which at the end of the day i don't believe in this business there was a chill and then we've mended fences i think this is for the press at the end of the day israel will do what it wants to do and when america objects it will remind the united states of where it stands which is it must back israel for electoral reasons parti

will the obama administration accept this charge? can president obama find his voice? will the ripples of hope that bobby kennedy spoke about once again infuse america's foreign policy? we'll see. with that, mr. speaker, i yield to the gentleman from texas, mr. gohmert. mr. gohmert: i thank my friend from virginia, truly a conscience in this body for those profound words. of challenge, bring us back to the roots from which this great nation has grown. and i realize the time grows late and it is the last hour that we will be in session this week and if the gentleman would indulge me, i know that we have a president who has said we are not a christian nation and i will not debate that. but it is so critical to look at our roots. so i would like to direct, mr. speaker, back to the words of roger williams, when he said that forced worship stinks in god's nostrils, it denies christ jesus yet to come that in these flames about religion there is no other prudent christian way of preserving peace in the world than by permission of different consciences. these are the words of

i think it's noble to defend obama-care. truth is, it's ignited a disdain for the expansion of the federal government. and it's not just among tea partiers. there's a lot of attention paid to them. the abc-"post" poll has the former coalition calling themselves independents. >> george? >> i think that's absolutely right. the country is not saying we like republicans. they're saying we don't like the current agenda. and the republicans are standing there. they are the alternative. >> we have a public in the midst of high unemployment that wants less spending. that was not predicted by this administration. it was certainly counter to what liberals normally call for. counter to what worked for fdr. we can talk about what happened in the great depression, george. but the fact is that i think if unemployment weren't so bad, right now, people would feel a lot better about obama care and the stimulus packages. but the problem is. as long as unemployment is up, the public is not going to appreciate the president's handling of the ec

after the nomination, she went in support of barack obama. >> did barack obama get the slogan from her? >> yes, he did. she did not know that. >> julien samarra -- samorra. >> he was a professor in the southwest. he was the first -- one of the first to denounce discrimination of latinos. i remember when he was saying, he remembers reading signs that would say, no latinos allowed. when you have that kind of experience and go through the most difficult times in the united states for minorities, and that is an example. >> he was the university of notre dame professor, and he is no longer alive. >> yes. >> i do not know how to say this next one. >> if we put everyone together -- cesar chavez, and you are going to find right now the father of all latinos, he has been fighting for a latino rights, even today. >> the you know him? >> yes. he has been important to me and many latinos. because of him, we remember we are part of the country, but we can maintain an element of our latino culture. >> the final name is cisneros. >> not only did i work for him, but let me tell you, i am completely co

he said obama's inner circle keeps screwing up on race.there are not sensitive at all about race. they really feel the extent to che allows himself to talk about race would tend to pigeon hole him or cost him support when a lot of people saw his election as a way to get the idea behind us. i don't think people elected him to disengage on race. just the opposite. the president shouldn't give sherrod his old back back. he should give her a new job, director of black outreach. the white house needs one. those are strong words. >> those are strong words, david. i think there are a lot of people who look back at the last week and wish they had behaved very differently. i'm sure there are plenty of people in the news media who stopped and thought about the fundamental yjob of journalism. i think that the naacp wishes they had not moved as quickly as they did. and i don't think anybody is saying the naacp, you know, needs more african-americans and heaven knows that tom vilsack, who has taken responsibility and who has said how badly he screwed u

obama. this is charles babbington. so when it comes to the 2010, your thoughts on if it's going to be a referendum on this current white house. the numples are on the bottom of -- numbers are on the bottom of your screen. while you are doing that, a couple ofertse stories. this one from the "new york times" off their national section. talks about teachers unions. there's a new tension, to read the headlines in obama's ties to teachers. crityims from allies. he goes on to write. that is coming on the pages of the "new york times" this morning. so to your calls, the reference to president obama. marcus, you are up first. go ahead. caller: yes. i would just like to share, as far as the democrats go and the republicans go, the democrats need to stick behind barack obama. the republicans have had their chance, their opportunity to prove to the american people that they can do things for the american people. not just the government, you know, but we want something for the american people. and as f

more fun. >>> first lady michelle obama has teamed up with major league baseball to fight obesity.romotes health think eating and exercise. she will make an announcement home of the baltimore or yeolts. she will participate with local baseball teams and professional players. pretty good. >> she seems to have done this before. >> a philadelphia gifts ever fifth grader took bullying all the way to the white house. she wrote a letter to the president explaining how she had been bullied at her former school nearly every day. >> every day, i get e-mail and i have no do something. >> the letter finally came in march and in it, president obama thanks her for sharing her story and encouraged her to speak to her teachers about being bullied. >> the white house gets 65,000 letters per week and president obama reads ten of them? >> i'm sure some of them he doesn't want to see. let's take a look at the weather forecast. >> it's sunny in some spots, we have airport delays for up to an hour. it is gray out there. temperatures have been struggling to make it out of the 50s at the coast, but, san
