waiver from obamacare to all 50 states so we can stop obamacare in its tracks. [applause] >> and i'll go on to find legislation -- to file legislation to repeal obamacare and to instead return to the states their constitutional responsibility and right to care for the needs of their poor and those that are uninsured. that's one item. number two, i will direct the secretary of energy to provide licenses to drillers, wildcatters, gas drillers, to start developing our energy resources in this country and get the oil and gas that we need. that's number two. [applause] >> number three, and this is a little controversial. i will designate china as a currency manipulator. under our law, that allows the president to apply tariffs where the president believes that chinese currency manipulation has cost american jobs or is unfair. i'll look at what they've done with regards to stealing technology, intellectual property, designs, patents and so forth as well as where they hacked into computers to steal technology and will apply those tariffs where i believe they're necessa

>> what will you do with obamacare if you are elected president? >> i will repeal obamacare. i will either have the ability to do it because the american public wisely elected 13 newly elected republican senators, and that is possible. there are 33 senators up for election this time. it is usually 33 or 34. of which, 23 are democrats. i think is 23.10. i know that because -- is 23-10. i know that because i read in a year when only 10 republicans won. as you know, they run every two years for six year terms. we need to have 23 republicans and 10 democrats. given the large number of freshmen and an increasing number of open democrat seats, we have a possibility if we can get to 60, were close, i think we can out right along -- outright repeal obamacare. but we cannot do is repeal obamacare by waiver. someone suggested, i think governor romney, that he would institute a waiver. that is a pretty bad idea, in my opinion. we do a waiver in states like iowa and of the leadership. will probably pass a waiver. -- and under the leadership they will probably pass a waiver. but in new yo

obamacare but the record is very clear. you and newt for for individual mandates and that is the problem and the question has been who can stand on the stage, look obama in the eye and say, obamacare is an obam -- abomination for this country and i'm going to do that, i can take that fight to him an win that fight. >> governor romney? >> a good deal of what you said was right, some was wrong. senator gingrich said he was for a federal individual mandate. that's something i opposed. what we did in our state was designed by the people in our state, by the people of our state. the people of massachusetts favor a plan 3-1. they don't like it, they can get rid of it. the great thing about democracy, individuals under the 10th amendment have the power to craft their own solutions this eproblem with president obama's plan is it does three things we didn't, amok others. it raises taxes, by $500 billion. two, it cuts medicare. by $500 billion. we didn't do that either. and three, it doesn't just deal with people who don't have insur

repeal obamacare. now every presidential candidate is run on repeal obamacare. every up with of them will sign the repeal if they're elected president and sworn into office. i would like to see us p the review of obamacare, if we can't get it repealed before we elect a new president, which i believe we will, and whether or not the supreme court finds it constitutional an honors that there's no receive rabblet clause an throws all of obamacare out, it still needs to be repeeled an the neck congress being an honorable congress meeds to send the repeal to the next president to be signed. and even if the supreme court thoughs it out. and even if the current president is reflected. there needs to be a repeal that goes to second term president obama's desk, perish the thought, if it unfolds in that passion but this congress needs to act and repeal obamacare thoroughly and i work, and i pray, that we're able to put the repeal of obama on the west core of the capitol, having passed not the white house but easage -- mess amming to the white house after the next president

>> governor romney has come out and said he will repeal obamacare. that is the biggest issue for voters in new hampshire, one size fits from all coming from washington, washington telling us what to do. new hampshire voters don't appreciate that. governor romney is strong on that. as soon as he gets into office he'll make sure that we do not fund obamacare. also, as we go forward with the health care act we will work to repeal it and get it done as soon as possible. i look to supporting him in that effort. >> when you look at some of the other candidates in the race, ron paul is in the lead in the iowa polls. if those heavy snowstorm he is going win because his guys are motivated and get out there. is that going to destabilize the primary race in new hampshire. is there a ron paul constituency in your state? >> ron paul does very well in new hampshire. in recent poll that came out today he was in second, but far behind governor romney. new hampshire voters want someone who is going to be strong on national security in the tradition of ronald reagan a

critics call the law obamacare.resident has tackled that phrase head on. >> they call it obamacare. i do care. that's right. the question is why don't you care? >> the president cares. his law helps seniors on medicare. it helps small businesses pay for insurance. it provides coverage for kids, and some adults with pre-existing conditions, and it lets young adults stay on their parents plan until age 26. all these parts of the law are already in effect. it makes life better for millions of americans and yet the best is yet to come. unless republican lawmakers or conservative judges kill it off first. joining me now congressman jim mcdermott, democrat from washington, who is also a doctor, so i'm happy here -- i'm happy he's here to discuss this issue. congressman, thank you for being here tonight. >> it's my pleasures, al. glad to be here. >> are republicans on the wrong side of the law since the law is clearly working? >> well, you know, many of us knew when we put it together there would be a lot of talk about how

republicans will have to run on improvements to obamacare. gingrich wants to reform obamacare. the treats don't kick in yet. as soon as the treats kick in, that takes us on path to be some mediocre country. >> sean: is the most electable? >> i think he is the most conservative. look, knock it off republicans, these are the candidates. you seen them. two most conservative candidates michele bachmann and mitt romney. michele bachmann i think she is terrific but she is just a congresswoman. she has never been a governor. she was hurt a little bit by the resemblance to sarah palin. the same way with perry with resemblance to bush. >> sean: let me ask you this. chris christie. >> he is going to be ignite. >> sean: threatened to take his inhaler away. >> he made the decision not to run. you have to go back to the words of tea pack. >> i was sick that day. i may as well tell you my prediction, you totally congratulate me or laugh at me from two years. many of the republicans have excellent characteristics and they are good and positions in governor or fox news host, but i think, well

and i'm going rescind obamacare. i'm going to repeal obamacare." but the record is very clear. you and newt were for individual mandates. and that is the problem. and the question is then, "who can stand on the stage, look obama in the eye, and say, 'obamacare is an abomination for this country,'?" and i'm going to do that. and i can take that fight to him and win that fight. >> governor romney. >> a good deal of what you said was right. some was wrong. speaker gingrich said that he was for a federal individual mandate. that's something i've always opposed. what we did in our state was designed by the people in our state for the needs of our state. you believe in the 10th amendment. i believe in the 10th amendment. the people of massachusetts favor our plan three to one. they don't like it, they can get rid of it. that's the great thing about a democracy, where individuals under the 10th amendment have the power to craft their own solutions. by the way, the problem with president obama's plan is it does three things we didn't in my opinion, among others. i understand we disagre

job-killing obamacare bill. >> obamacare is a bill that simply must be repealed. >> there are 1.6 millionld repeal obamacare. >> but a funny thing happened on the way to the gop talking point because the affordable care act is working for millions of americans. it reduced the number of uninsured children by 1 million. it's helped 2.6 million seniors save more than $1 billion on prescription drugs. it provided 24 million seniors with free preventive care and is helping some 30,000 people with pre-existing conditions get the affordable coverage they so desperately need. people like spike dolomite ward generated a lot of buzz when she wrote an "l.a. times" op ed praising the president's health care law saying, quote, for me, it's been a lifesaver, perhaps literally. it's part of the law that really hits home for the president. >> my mother, when she contracted cancer, the insurance companies started suggesting that, maybe this is a pre-existing condition. maybe you could have diagnosed it before you actually purchased your insurance. ultimately they gave in but she had to spend weeks fightin

obamacare is a disaster. i have friends that are closing up businesses because they aren't going to be able to afford obamacare. these are people who have been in business for 40 years. have nice, middle size and even small businesses. they are closing up their business. i can tell you there are big companies where these aren't going to close, but they cannot believe the kind of cost that is being, you know, handled by. their accounting people are coming and saying we had no idea this was going to be happening and they are going to be changing your numbers for next year and the year after. they can believe what's going on with obamacare. >> do you think herman cain was treated unfair? there's been no prove -- proof of the allegations. i would think the most recent one is he'sly proven false. there are hotel receipts, plane ticket receipts, videos of them or not. do you think he was treated unfairly? >> it was a tough thing for him. they were coming out of the woodwork. frankly, i guess based on that john kenn

obamacare came along. in every way possible, the american people said we do not want obamacare. they elected scott brown in massachusetts, a republican in the most liberal state -- among the most liberal state in the nation. they did not want obamacare. they wanted no input from republicans. there were plans for bipartisan plans. whenever senator bennett and senator wyden put together a bipartisan plan pushed aside. from akin tell, this white house has stood aside and let nancy pelosi and harry reid ran the show. how would i do it differently? i was lucky enough to be lucky and quotes where the state is 85% democrat. but time is some lessons. they figured out from day one of going to get nothing done if they attack these guys on a personal basis. the speaker of the house in the senate president have to have respect for me and i for them. he went and met them in their offices. we established a case of needing every monday and one of our offices. we rotated. i didn't say i'd the governor come to my office. beside each other, got to know each other and talked about challenges going

is not even in effect. >> eric: by the numbers, obamacare isn't even implemen implemented correct. what was supposed to bring the cost curve down on healthcare is doing the opposite. >> dana: my point is it is causing a huge amount of uncertainty. it's one thing that american businesses want to be able to provide healthcare to the employees. good business. and for competitive sake to hire the best people. they don't know what the healthcare cost will be going forward. a huge chunk. not the only piece. but obamacare is signature piece -- >> bob: if you are in crap hands with all state, which is what you are. ripoff artist. worst insurance company in america. they raise rates indiscriminately. >> andrea: you know why? >> bob: let me finish before you hit me again. they are taking advantage of something that is not in effect. you defend insurance company. >> andrea: we had the debate on "the five" many times. a lot of provisions have gone in effect. >> bob: which ones? >> andrea: covering kids. >> bob: bad thing. >> andrea: no precondition. >> bob: that's a bad thing. >> greg: you say

we worked together on repealing "obamacare". i'm one of the first to sign on to repeal dodd-frank legislation. the answer to that is, yes, but i haven't come to the conviction. that's what holds me back, bob. >> schieffer: let me ask you the question that i just asked ms. bachmann. that is, why is romney having such a hard time? he has a great resume as a businessman and all of that. he's obviously a good, strong person of good character. and yet, there just seems to be a large segment of the republican party that, for want of a better phrase, just doesn't like him. why do you think that is? >> that's a hard thing to measure. i've watched mitt romney for about five years. he built a good organization in this state four years ago and good media organization. that hasn't happened to the extent this year. but i think mitt romney was unjustly marked down for his religion last time. i hope that's not happening this time. he's a better candidate this time than he was four years ago. but sometimes, you can measure all the pieces, where

i am adamantly opposed to obamacare. president, i will return to the people and states the power they have under the constitution. they can craft the solutions they think are best for them. you mandated in your state that at 12 years old, girls have to get a vaccination for sexually transmitted disease. it is not likely have differences on mandates. we have differences on what we mandated. i want to give people health insurance. you want to give young girls a vaccine. there are differences. >> i want to make one point. in 1993 in fighting hillary care, virtually everyone sought the mandate as a less dangerous thing and what she was trying to do. it became more obvious that mandates have all sorts of problems built-in. people tried to find other techniques. i have tried to find a way to make sure the people who could afford it are paying their hospital bills while leaving and out for libertarians to not buy insurance. it is clear the mandate is unconstitutional. it started as a conservative effort to stop hillary care in

i also want to get rid of obamacare. you want to talk about hurting health care, i am the chief opponent of obamacare and i wrote a bill to get rid of it. there is no equality on the candidates when it comes to getting rid of obamacare. there is not. we have candidates in this race that had been for the individual health care mandate for 20 years. that is newt gingrich. right up until may of this year. he has taken $37 million on the health industry to promote that view. i did not share that view. mitt romney is the only governor in the history of the united states to put in place socialized medicine in his own state. i asked the question -- do we really think that people who have made this their signature issue are going to repeal obamacare? this is going to be tough to do it. i am not kidding you. it will be very tough to repeal obamacare but i am committed to it with everything in my being. i am committed to it. i will tell you why. for their first time in the history of united states, we have a taxpayer funded aborti

i fought against the out of control spending, obamacare.t is when nancy pelosi president obama were in charge. i stood up and fought when i had a chance against the establishment. i am not a part of the establishment. i get with growth is because i have run a real business as a private businesswoman. i anders down the tax code. i know what has to be done to -- i understand the tax code. i know what has to be done. i am the one with the resolve of the backbone to do it of all the candidates. plus, i am the most electable. i have won four elections in the last five in a state where no republican women had won before. i have one in tough races. we needed the most conservative candidate and ronald reagan to defeat jimmy carter. march market that, became what britain needed as the iron lady. -- just like margaret thatcher, became what britain needed as the iron lady. i will stand on the stage with barack obama and hold him accountable, to feed him just like i held on paul accountable. i will do that to president obama. i will be the candidate wh

she introduced a bill to repeal obamacare. that's a good thing. she was a lot wiser about the super committee than most people in congress. michele bachmann brings a lot to the table. mitt romney is a terrific manager and would be far better than president obama. you know, you can go down the list. i think -- rick santorum is a genuine expert on iran and foreign policy. and is probably the most deeply committed person on how do we rebuild the family as the base of american life. i look at my friends and i think of them as my friends. vione opponent, barack obama. >> sean: you stated maybe a couple of weeks back in an interview i did with you that you thought it would come down to romney versus anti-romney -- >> not romney. >> sean: not romney. >> not necessarily anti-romney. >> sean: is that now -- is that now mean newt versus romney? >> i think the dynamic is changing in a way you and i wouldn't have thought possible, okay? i am just-- >>> and that is? >> that is, i stopped for a second because i think about the period where i kept telling you hi

on the regulatory front, we hope to repeal obamacare on day one. [applause] we want to repeal dodd frank, and we want to repeal sarbanes. [applause] my goal is to run a campaign which is designed to be a team victory on a grand scale so we have a big enough senate majority and house majority, so the american people volt on an agenda to een i enable us to execute these ideas rapidly. i'm for a very dramatic american energy program, not just energy indense, but to become the world's reserve splier of energy, so if the straits are closed or persian gulf is not there, there's not an industrial depression in the rest of the world. we have to understand an american energy strategy is both a gnarl security strategy and an economic strategy, and it should be a very important part of what we're doing, and it's fundamentally opposite of obama. [applause] if we do the right things with the economy, if we rebuild the arsenal democracy, if we use science and technology, if we dramatically improve our education system, then, frankly, we don't have to worry about

she has fought hard in washington to appeal obamacare.g on fiscal issues to turn the economy around. these are the kinds of issues we will share with the electorate on caucus night and it will make the decision she is the one who best represents the views and values of people here in iowa. host: polls have her not in the top 3 or 4. she won the iowa straw poll last august, but what is it going to take -- what are you going to consider to be a win? guest: we certainly would expect to launch out of iowa with a first-place winner, that is what we are shooting for. nobody expected us to win the straw poll and she won, with less resources and time than any other candidate. she worked extremely hard to go out and meet the people. the people of iowa take their voting extremely seriously and they are not swayed by the polls and pundits. they met -- make up their own minds. as we have gone through the process, the betting process, of the campaign, it has been tremendous for them to vet the candidates and as they peel back the layers of other candi

obamacare. it had nothing to do with seniors. it had nothing to do with the poor. who are covered by medicaid and the children's health insurance program, the schip program. in georgia it's called peach care. they did nothing to strengthen medicare. in fact, to pay for this new entitlement program, health insurance for all, young and healthy people, they gutted the medicare program. mr. speaker, the gentleman from louisiana has a poster before us right now, the first slide, if you will, and it -- we need, every one of us, on both sides of the aisle, to focus on that and as he points to the first bullet point, cutting $575 billion from the medicare program. and most of it, in the next bullet, is from the medicare advantage program and of the 40 million to 45 million people that are on medicare, most of them because they're 65, maybe 10 million of them because they're disabled and yumminger, but so many of them -- younger, but so many of them, mr. speaker, get their care, get their health care on the medicare program through something called medicare advantage and th

because obamacare is structured the same way i think that our republican friends just can't stand that obama passed a health care bill and that's why we're hearing more and more talk about obamacare because there are these guys as they said they just don't like government whether it works or whether it was obama scarcer all this well all that sort of allied planes was there you know where you are is a single payer system and it works and then that's what we're going to get less along is not a great hard question here where the t.s.a. has gotten a little note happy ok rapper freddie gibbs says the t.s.a. agent left a note that in his bag after bag was randomly searched and marijuana was found the note from the agent read. and luckily gibbs got to keep his pot course this harkens back to another note left by a t.s.a. agent woman's bag after the agent discovered a certain type of vibrating sex toy that no red get your freak on girl so we know republicans and presidential candidates republican presidential candidates are flying all over the country all the time checking their bags so the q
