the president is said to be pushing democrats to run on obama care in november. chris, a big, big news day. why would the president push health care? >> i don't think and i don't know what bloomberg sources are. if there is one thing to do if you like obama care vote for me. but if you are a democrat in the senate. it passed by a single vote and every single democrat senator can be said to be the vote between obama care passing or not. you want to neutralize the issue. and look at internals in the bloomberg poll. while people don't like obama care, according to the fox poll they have accepted it. only 32 percent said that they would like to see it repealed and 56 percent said they would like to see it with modificat n modificatio modifications. and there is a lot they do like. they like the idea that kids up to the age of 26 can stay on their parent's policys. and 65 say they like the idea that insurance companies are banned from cutting people off with preexisting conditions. and you are not going to it go out and say vote for me because i voted for obama care. y

the train wreck that is obama care. and i think as a result of so many americans standing up, we elevated the national debate over the enormous harms. millions of americans have lost their job, millions have lost health care, have lost their doctors because of obama care. millions of americans have been forced into part-time work. very interesting, if you want to talk about the impact on the national political discourse, right now democrats are running scared because it is likely the republicans will retake the u.s. senate. we'll retire harry reid and majority leader. the reason is because of obama care. an albatross around the necks of democrats. i would suggest to you that millions of americans standing up last fall highlighting the harms of obama care played a very direct cause in the electoral success we're seeing. there are too many politicians in washington who worry about bickering back and forth. the biggest divide in this country is not between republicans and democrats. it's between entrenched politicians in wa

, that lamar alexander voted for funding of obama care by voting with the democrats on cloture.der did, is he sided with the democrats and against the republican national committee platform when the platform specifically stated that obama care was an attack on the constitution. so if obama care is an attack on the constitution, it stands to reason that lamar's vote is also an attack on the constitution and what republicans want and what conservatives want is they want people who will stand and defend the republican national committee platform instead of running to the democrats in capitulation. >> there are many people, though, sir, who would advocate compromise at the highest level as a way to govern and even lloyd blankfein, the ceo of goldman sachs this morning, paid tribute to cantor, he said he was a man who had done good things at the highest level with public service and then said this, which i think is really quite important. if you just listen to what the ceo of goldman sachs had to say. >> i hope it doesn't mean that it will be impossible from this point forward to com

they used to talk about repeeling obama care. be all against the gay community, haven't heard that lately. even among republicans, all have you is scandal. i would be worried about that. are you worried about that? >> it is a fair point. the transition from 2014 to 2016 will be tough. if we don't start pushing our economic messages and our solutions instead of just these scandals. but let me just take issue, these are not little scandals. these are big scandals. and if the american people equate the government with the irs, and the v.a., i could go on and on and on, this does not bode well for ademocratic agenda. >> s.e., i want to take issue with something you said. you said the republicans would do very well in 2014. where, exactly? if you look at the priority senate faces, in iowa, he is up four point in the head-to-head. >> despite tens of millions of ads against her, she is up for it. democrats are running very smart campaigns in these tough senate races. we have history running against us. the president is, you know, is dow

i think that's what's going on with both the jobs numbers and with obama care. >> and let me be clearike we ought to be satisfied and we should have more. but i'm saying we're making a lot more progress and to your point, governor, we could be doing a lot more if we could get infrastructure through minimum wage and other things. in fact, let's look at the politics of it. a new poll shows what the most important issues are to voters. 40% say the economy. that's followed by health care, the deficit, the environment, and then gun policy. where's benghazi on the s, or t so-called irs scandal on this list. >> it's not even existent. the people are interested in things that affect their lives. not these endless investigations. and by the way, it was wrong when we did it during the bush administration. when democrats did it. people want washington to address the things that are crucial to their lives. and you said it best. right now, jobs and health care. the president is succeeding on both of those fronts. just think, 17 million people are now covered by health care who weren't before. the

we have to repeal obama care. there are agencies we could live without, the department of education being a prime example. we will have to have structural reforms to the major programs. we will have to raise the retirement age sort reflects the advances in modern technology. i'm concerned about the idea of means testing benefits. that sounds like democratic rhetoric about paying your fair share where we will penalize people who have done well. people should keep the money that is entitled to them. if they want to give it away, they can do a better job than the government. there are things that can be done. we have to look at programs that have unintentional consequences. we have got used -- we have gone food million people on stamps. we have to get back to everybody works in america. >> republicans have rallied around the idea of repealing the affordable care act. if you have the votes to repeal the affordable care act, what would you replace it with? other parts of obamacare that are good, that you would like to

i'm talking about the battle over the obama care contraception mandate. a mandate that retailer hob bey lobby says violates its religious beliefs. now on the final day of the high court's session, the justices are poised to issue their ruling, which could have a far reaching impact. protesters stood before the u.s. supreme court last week calling on justices to defend religious freedom against what they see as government intrusion. >> our basic point is the government can't put a company in a position of choosing between its faith and following the law. >> reporter: hobby lobby wants an exemption from the obamacare mandate to provide certain forms of emergency contraception like plan b, known as the morning after pill. which the company's owners view as tantamount to abortion. last year, the obama administration allowed exemptions for churches and aloud some rngsly lreligiously affiliated groups to have a third party provide coverage. but hobby lobby is a private company. and legal experts say if it gets an exemption, the ruling could have widespread impl

and i think now you can begin to understand why it was so important to try to kill obama care in the cradle. why they went to the government shutdown and those other things because once it actually gets going, well, then the danger is people decide they actually like it. and forget it, you can't unravel it again. people like it in kentucky, in large part because the governor is implementing it well there, but also because it's not called obama care. and that shows the fundamental ill logic at the criticism of the president's health care plan because they've done so well at dem demonizing obama care, if you actually look at what's in it, they say oh, i like that. it's like the people who say get the government out of my medicare. >> you know, congressman, you're on the ground, you're there where people are in kentucky on the ground, are a part of the state program. how are people responding now that they have the ability to sign in on a state program because of the affordable care act or obamacare. tell us the reaction of the people on the ground in your state. >> well, from a human s

so what this agenda includes, options to replace obama care.l. no unemployment insurance. it really does sound like the republicans are trying to play to their base whereas immigration reform is to a bigger audience. >> right. they are trying to play it to their base right now. the primaries will be over june 10th and everyone is going to be hunkering down, in full. campaign mode until november. there are some must-do items on that aagain ta, appropriation's bills and the highway trust fund, those are things that they have to have get done but the rest of it is going to say, you though, we cut taxes and we're trying to cut the gas tax and we're still against obama care and that's our agenda and there's nothing that democrats can do to really convince them to try to do unemployment insurance or immigration reform at this point because they know that that's going to be a win for democrats. >> so kate, let's talk about democrats for a minute. that strategy, obviously, is to delay things right now. give republicans a chance to regroup. but while th

we had the president lie for months about obama care. we have had the attorney general say that the gun running down in mexico, he was held in contempt. big government, not just the e-mails and servers and computers. >> steve, about 40 year ace go there was a secretary named rosemary woods. there was a taping error that happened during which there was a gap, a critical gap. his role in a cover up. that gap prevented some of that identification. eventually the president had to resign. could this lead to that? >> that 18.5 ratio was fun to see how it happened. it did bring down the president. i'm not sure it will bring down this president but the fact of the matter is it will bring down the democratic party. you will start to see it in november. it will discredit the idea of big government. >> if the public is aware of it. i listened to npr yesterday. we obviously are right here. i listened to npr for an hour and a half. not one word on the day the commissioner was giving testimony. not one word. and npr is not reporting on it. >> if they

does president obama care too much about our troops? >> look, when we have an american troop, a soldier in enemy hands, it is the right thing to go after him and to bring him back. it is not the right thing to trade off with terrorists in negotiations five of the top taliban commanders, the worst of the worst of all the jihadis that have ever been held at gitmo in return for that troop. what should have been done -- >> claire, president bush let people go when he didn't even get anything for the deal? >> we know who these five are. we know they were the deputy director of intelligence for the taliban. another deputy minister of defense for the taliban. another one, governor of the province of harat who negotiated before 9/11 the agreement between al qaeda, the taliban, and iran. we are headed right back with these guys on the loose. >> but the war in afghanistan is not in the same place it was in 2003. you're talking about an increased ansf capability. you're talking about a taliban in al qaeda that is decimated. you're talking about th

a critical test for obama care today. they are about to release a decision that could strike down one of the law's most controversial requirements. it has connection toss our area as well. >> that is exactly right, doug luzader, how will this fall on you do you think. you know the court. >> reporter: they called me in advance and let me know what the decisions will be. this is one of those deals that could go one way, the the other or right in the middle. how is that for hedging bets. the the supreme court, wait until the very event of their term today to release two pretty big decisions, one of which does deal with obama care. this is the decision day at the supreme court for a case that has pitted two private businesses against the will of the deeply divided congress. the affordable care act, obama care, go too far in providing free contraceptive coverage for employees even if it violates their deeply held religious beliefs. hobby lobby and conestoga woods specialties, both sued the federal government. arguing that obam

he bypasses congress on matters ranging from obama care to immigration law, to the point where one of the most respected law professors in the country has called our president the very danger the constitution was designed to avoid. the american public overwhelmingly regrets obama care, our veterans are dying, waiting to see doctors, the irs intimidates conservative groups, the southern border is compared to a sieve and the president assures us not to worry, smiling, golfing, and at this very moment, partying with anna wintour. because the fund-raising never stops, not when four americans die in benghazi, and not when baghdad is at the brink. joining us now, brit hume. brit? >> that's a pretty powerful indictment, megan, and i kind of wish i could take issue with any of its individual parts and i really can't. i would add one more thing which is that, if you think of the issue that elected barack obama. the issue that was an avalanche on the republican ticket in 2008, it was the economy. and here we are now how many years into this administration, we have not had anything like the robu

certainly, i think it opens the flood gates for anyone to challenge not just this provision of obama care, but really, you know, any neutral law that they don't like, so i think that the concern all along has been, not just, you know, the implications for the contraception mandate, but the implications for all sorts of people who say, i thought i was protected by basic civil rights law, if my boss is a jehovah's witness or my boss believes in sharia law, is he or she going to be able to sort of impose those religious views in ways that don't just violate my sense of who i am in this country but violate other legal mandates and protections i thought i had? i think that's the real concern here, and i think in fairness the court was aware of that when this case was argued, that it really doesn't just unsettle the narrow question of the contraception mandate, i think it unsettles an awful lot of presumptions we have about the law. >> and the extent of -- the extent to which we can apply our own concerns and restrictions and fears to people around us without the law interfering with that. fasc
