rick folbaum. rick: the testimony from secretary leon panetta has been highly anticipated on the hill. it's likely to sparks will fly. national security correspondent jennifer griffin joining us from washington. jennifer, what do you think the questions are that st*eb secretary panetta will be asked? >> reporter: one of the top questions starting from the beginning is why were he and chairman dempsey not told for 50 minutes after the attack began and after the personal locater button of ambassador christopher stevens had already been pressed, that is according to the dod's only timeline that they released. when did they tell president obama? did they wait until their meeting at the white house that occurred at 5:00pm herein on the dave the attack, did they wait to tell the president and john bren on, or were they alerted right away. if they waited why did they wait. why was the marine fast team told to off-load the plane which delayed them by 90 minutes and change out of their marine uniforms into civilian clothes? that was a delay, it won't have allowed them to get there in time to help ambassador stevens but it was indyk tougher of a mentality of not wanting to send any sort of military presence into libya. why wasn't the fast team sent to benghazi where they could have secured the consulate and the cia annex so that the f.b.i. could get in? it took the f.b.i. 24 days to get in because the areas were not secure and at that point all of the evidence was not very useful. there are so many questions about why did the team from benghazi, the team that included several special operations forces from the army believe, and why were they told that fast fliers, that is air cover would be above benghazi when they arrived, but when they lived there were no fast fliers, there was no air cover and has martha has been reporting after talking to senator graham it was a full seven hours before tyrone woods and glen doherty were killed. so a lot of questions for the military response, rick. rick: a lot of people have been asking about how much the pentagon knew, if anything about the cia's presence in benghazi and whether or not that may have played a role in the delay of any kind of a military response. is that likely to come up? >> reporter: i think it's very interesting in the statement department's arb report, the after action review, general carter hamm said that he wasn't aware that there was such a large group of americans operating out of benghazi. he is the head of africom, why did he not know that the cia had such a large presence there. what they were doing? i think senator rand paul was trying to get at that when he was questioning secretary of state hillary clinton last week. take a listen. >> my question is, is the u.s. involved with any procuring of weapons, transfer of weapons, buying, selling, anyhow transferring weapons to turkey out of libya? >> to turkey? i will have to take that question for the record. nobody has ever raised that with me. >> report

rick reichmuth is live from daytona with a guest on the aftermath of that and how we can look forward to today's race, hey, rick. >> rickg day, the 500. and you're a sports analyst for nascar and a former crew chief and now a thing or two literally about the race here. and seeing that crash yesterday has got to have some impact on today. and tell me when you see that, what's going through the driver's minds today as they're getting ready for this. does that haunts them or scares them? >> i don't know if it haunts them or scares them, the fans injured will be on the driver's minds and everyone's minds. these drivers they have a strange dna. when they buckle in the race cars and crank the engines to start this 500, it's pretty much the task at hand they've got for the 500 mile race and trying to get here to victory lane. of course, all day long and even beyond, those fans and their families will be on our prayers and on our minds. >> rick: it seems like we're getting used to the end ever big races especially here at daytona speedway there ends up being a crash. an aggressive sport and something at the end. do you think we

rick santorum rick perry has stumbled back in the news. he said the boy scouts should not soften their policy, but he likes them hard and preferably thick. the governor said three things made this country great. scouting no gays, and he forgets the third one. is there anything that rickould do not to make himself look like a buffoon? >> he's just ridiculous. the fact that he equates it to popular culture. if anyone is cool, that's it. i'm poll culture popular culture. >> john: you're a jewish gay person. >> do gays run pop culture. >> oh, yes. >> considering the ""brokeback mountain" ad that he did i think he should back away slowly. >> john: let's not forget he's still against letting gay troops serve openly because having to fight beside a gay soldier made compromise christians values while he's killing people. are the scouts going to be able to make this adjustment gracefully? or will it be like segregation. >> until the 1940s they had segregated troops. it will take time. it will take time for people to accept it. >> it's ridiculous. >> you think there are not gay scouts and guy scouts leaders? and there is a history as you know, of abuse of these kids. that is constantly over looked. >> i got to say by heterosexual identified males. the pope tried to blame it on

rick santelli before. forget about conventional wisdom, rick. there is no wisdom. >> exactly. >> the markets and the economy are no longer related. everyone is waiting for what ben says. eventually these two have to come together, and that's the point i'm worried about. >> steve, do you think if the market was looking for a soothing voice today from ben bernanke, didn't it get? it? >> i don't know if it's looking for a soothing voice. what they are look for is any surprises, so to rick's, as soon as he's done speaking, the market is allowed to rally. the market sells off in anticipation for what he's going to say, so it's not -- you know, it's about him dropping another word bomb on us, but we sort of know everything. >> let's put it this way. he showed up with his butler's outfit on today and refilled the punch bowl. certainly told us he's not going to take it away. >> to a certain extent, yes, and guys are still looking for return. the only place you're getting it is in the s&p. until you don't. there could be a day when you say that day 30, 40, 50 handles down, be a then then guys are going to continue to buy the dip until the momentum switches. >> anthony, weigh n.what's the point of the market and the volatility you see at the end of the day given the fact that scott so aptly pointed through the mr. bernanke has basically signalled that he's going to be there. the training wheels are still on. what do you do in a market like this? >> i think in a market like this

rick. rick folbaum has details from the breaking news desk. >> let's start, jenna with those ikea meatballs you're referring to. horse meat found in meatballs sold in ikea stores in the czech republic. they say there is no horse meat in u.s. stores. about 38 around the country. ikea spokeswoman says they sell only meatballs made by an american supplier using beef and pork. because of the controversy, ikea is doing dna tests on meatballs sold here and should have the results next month. is anyone importing beef from countries where horse meat has been found? according to the department of agriculture, the answer is no. no horse meat is found in any beef products sold in the u.s. as for u.s. law on this topic, in november of 2011, congress lifted a ban on the slaughter of horses. they have tried to get government inspectors to look at their facilities that would be the first step them being allowed to operate legally here in this country. but the fda has not been there to check them out. so those facilities are not open for business. to some cultures the idea of eating horse meat is simply horrifying the meat is eaten in many countries including italy, france and to name a fee. it is said to be low-fat, high protein alternative to other kinds of meat. the horse meat jenna, was not raised for human consumption. the horses were given drugs which could be dangerous when they are eaten in the meat. >> news for u.s. markets. the no great news for european markets. this continues to be a huge story. ricku know every year hundreds of thousands of americans could in for knee replacement surgery. until now doctors have had to realize on their expertise, sort of medical guesswork to make sure they get the joint in just right. now there is a new sensor that can make sure everything is lined up properly and that could make recovery a whole lot faster. professor peter walker, a research professor at the department of orthopedic surgery at new york university's langone medical center. i am particularly interested in this story because i have had what, three acl replacements. i'm missing some cartilage. i'm probably going to be a candidate for knee replacement one of these days. how does this work? this is obviously the model of the human knee but when this joint needs to go, you've got a new way to get it in more accurately. >> that is correct. at the moment the surgeon relies on skill, experience, and obviously a lot of instrumentation to shape the bones so that they will accept the componen

thanks, anna. >> let's go to rick and see what tricks he has up his sleeve for you. >> tucker: try that, rick. >> rick streets of new york, but we didn't get the worst of it, it was to the east of here. an image coming out of boston where they, at this point, have over 21 inches of snow and it's still snowing, take a look at that, that's a street and those are cars that people are having a hard time getting past and that's the top of the fire hydrant, and looks like another car back there that's completely snowed over and another picture out of sea cliff, new york, and you've got na snow blower, you'll need it. it's a tough one. if you wish, send your pictures so we can share them and put them on the website. go to you report. go to the main page and you report. and rick reichmuth on twitter and e-mail to us friends@foxnews.com. and take a look at the weather map. snowfall totals have been extreme especially from that central long island stretch through central connecticut and up towards the mass coast line and maine, i should say. 32.9 inches, west of portland. you broke your all time snowiest storm

the temperatures in the 20's up to our north. 18 in fred ricks rick. -- in frederick.day. should get much better as we go into the afternoon. for one, we will have less wind. we're also going to have a great deal of sunshine later in the day. then high temperatures ranging from 40-45. the winds calm. we're in between storm systems. there's a next batch of rain that will be moving our way. a little bit of icing happening in parts of wisconsin. also north carolina. so it's the northern edge of this storm where temperatures could be cold enough for a little bit of ice and then mainly a rain event. strong thunderstorms are possible from texas to mississippi ahead of this cold front. also a blizzard starting to build in the plains from nebraska to minnesota. so just as one area of the country quiets down, of course it starts to get rocking in other areas. what i would worry about is tonight at the onset when there could be rain. clouds build in through the later half of today and tonight then especially after 3:00 a.m. around the baltimore metro area the onset of maryland.

republican party that viewed him with such suspicion they anointed herban cain, militia bachman, rick perry, ricknewt gingrich as front runners until they just decided oh, what the hell. >> we've got to -- a war of attriti attrition. >> it's not just mitt romney. when you look at the line-up of those speaking at cpac, you see a party in true disarray, discredited, pale male and stale. where are they going? that to me is lieberman almost more interesting than the return of a man who should just be going out and looting more companies as he did in his career. >> let me pause at something, e.j. there is talk about him returning from the shadows, but i actually think that the gop has spent really the last four months trying to prove that they are not the party much the 53% or the party of the elite, whether that's outreach eric cantor style at aei or the kinder, gentler proposal for the gop. the shadow of romney actually looms quite large over the republican party. >> i think that's absolutely right. first, i want to say this network owes romney a royalty for the number of times we have shown him sin

rick santelli. rick, you first. i doubt there are 20 people on the floor of the new york stock exchange who thought we would be where we are now after monday, and i'm wondering if the same dynamic exists where you are. >> no, not at all. as a matter of fact, i'm glad you asked that question. we have two charts. quickly look at the first one. interest rates moved up as the dow moved towards the high but it was the second chart that answers your question. this is a one-year chart of the dow. i'll tell you what. as a technician i've never seen a stranger looking top than that, and it is definitely due to the juice nature of the market and real growth coming in or at least contribution from housing. there has been no doubt on this trading floor, zero, we would take out the all-time highs. where the doubt starts to thicken along with the plot what happens after that? will the juice continue? will high frequency trade which is the delivery mechanism of the punt, will it all just keep going forever? that i can't answer. >> mike, it just feels like, you know, every little mini selloff is met with the buy on the dip mentality. i guess the next question is what will create another opportunity to get into this market at lower prices. how do you want to invest knowing that the fed is there and it seems all clear in terms of u.s. equities over the long term? >> that's a great question, maria, because the pain trade has been the last couple of years and right now still is, according to ricktelli is up. and when you look at the numbers in housing, that is such a key factor for underpinning people's confidence. this is one of the least participated bull market, a four-year bull market, so little participation by people. right now we have an exhausting of sellers, and i think when you are look at billionaires like michael dell and warren buffett out there buying companies at a premium to the current market price and selling junk bonds to fund them you get a good idea of where the values are. >> how do you want to invest them? >> i think that the things that have brought us to this dance will continue for a while. i think tech, as you just pointed out, a second ago is leading this market. financial continue to lead this market. i think the market will also be helped by retail participation sometime in the future, but we're not there, and i think when they come in, they would look at those two groups. >> josh brown, those who made big calls last week said it was the time to g

. >> if you go visit a friend for the weekend and they have a sewage problem, rick, let's go to rick's house. and rick's house has a sewage problem at his house. >> that's because you wouldn't get out of bathroom. >> right. >> does that mean i'm going to sue you because you had a sewage problem. >> i think they did suffer a real ordeal. i think we are way too intuitive. >> if the ship had problems ahead of sometime. >> there are suggestions it may have. >> we will find out. >> i'm a huge fan of the real world challenges on mtv. basically that a three day challenge on road rules that you have to get through and suffer through. >> like cannon ball run. >> people volume fear for that. >> at the end you win like 100 grand or something. >> maybe it was a bad example. >> here are your temps as you are waking up this morning. another cold one to the north. colder moving in towards florida and it's going to be probably about the coldest air mass tonight and tomorrow night that you have had across florida once this front gets through. this is a front also bringing some snow today across parts of the northeast. l

governor are governor rick snyder says he's not interested in changing the electoral college can we trust him. you know what i don't buy it we can't trust rick snyder remember tricky rick snyder is the same governor who said right to work was not on his agenda and then in the lame duck period last year he rammed right to work down our throats this is the same governor who's who started his term with the language of shared sacrifice but then began to strip the our income tax credit tax working people and the middle class pensions and to basically those so municipalities and school districts would emerge as the managers while giving tax breaks to corporations and so this is a governor who has proven that he cannot be trusted. apparently and the fact of the matter is that they don't have to do this tomorrow republicans have four years before the next election so do you think that may be some christmas eve when nobody's paying attention or some friday night or if there's a big national disaster another god forbid newtown kind of thing that all of a sudden the republicans in the house of representatives in the senate and the governor's office in michigan are just just like

rick perry? rick perry came on, he was looking like a good candidate for the republican side. and then he stood up and was asked, three federal agencies that he wants to eliminate. and then he could not remember one of them and he wound up saying, groups. and that was in the news for weeks. you remember? 24-7. what is this going to do with the campaign? oh, my gosh. he doesn't know he's talking about. well, nobody, at least the ones i heard, had never heard anybody say, well, suppose you eliminate no, 4-$5 billion is no which basically provides all of our weather information, virtually all of it, has satellites up in the sky. they're tracking was going on. what you do with that $45 billion? no that because of the work we do in the book publishing industry, the apartment of commerce is over there in china trying to make sure that the chinese government understands that what we sell books, when we bring books to china that they're going to do -- they're going to do at least everything they can to make sure they're not being stolen, pirated, copied. the department of energy, that was one of the three. the department of energy regulates oil and gas. so if you eliminate that department what happens? the department of education funds about 12% of u.s., the u.s. -- kate as 12 additional. you eliminate education. what happens? those were the questions that should have been asked of rick perry because those are the questions that might break through the difference is the people have as to whether or not the local of the federal government is too big. receptacle eliminated department and those assembly of a role to play in education. but it is that data, that evidence that is, i think, really, really quite important. now, with that said -- obama let me go back one second. caring about consequences. what i mean there is really, that's more about health care than anything else. is 50 million people, and i'm sure close to 50 million uninsured cannot talk about the plan to deal with it seems to me just to become a you know, an unbelievable acceptance of a condition that once you understand what it means for people in this society not have health care and to risk getting sicker going -- if they get sick to go bankrupt and had a drop of -- to drop out of college. once you understand that you really need to do something about the particular problem. a commitment to the common

rick perry? rick perry came on looking like a good candidate for the republican side and then he stood up and was asked, he said there are three federal agencies he wanted to eliminate and then he couldn't remember one of them and wound up saying hoops, and that moves was in the news for a week. remember? 24/7. what is this going to do to his campaign? doesn't know what he is talking about. nobody at least once i heard, i never heard anybody say suppose you he eliminate the department of commerce. $4 billion to $5 billion of the department of congress -- commerce is noaa which provides all of our weather information, virtually all of it, has the satellite in the sky, tracking what is going on to some extent in the oceans too. what do you do to that 4 to $5 billion? i know now because of the work we do in the book publishing industry the department of commerce is over there in a china trying to make sure the chinese government understands when we sell books, when we bring books to china, they will do everything they can to make sure they are not being sold or pirated or copied or sold somewhere else. the department of energy, that was one of the three. the department of energy regulates oil and gas drilling. if you eliminate that department, what happens? the department of education funds 12% of the u.s. k-12 educational system. the department of education, what happens? those were the questions that should have been asked of rick perry because those are the questions that might break through the differences people have, the federal government is too big, eliminate the department and those who say we have a role to play in education but it is that data, that evidence that are really quite important. with that said -- let me go back one second. caring about consequences. what i mean is it is more about health care than anything else. fifty million people uninsured or close to fifty million people uninsured not to come of a plan to deal with it seems to me just to be an unbelievable acceptance of a condition that once you understand what it means for people in society, to risk getting sick or going bankrupt and dropping out of college, once you understand that you really need to do something about that particular problem. the fourth is commitment to the common good. when james madison was putting this constitution together, what he was trying to do, he was trying to figure out how to set up a set of institutions

incomes, rick -- in comes rick perry, a good frid of mine, he understands how to move business, and offers a state that has nothing in way of individual income tax, nothing by way of corporate tax. and it is a pretty compelling message for financial services businesses, for the innovators, in silicone valley, and manners outside of los angeles in the bay area, used to tell governor schwarzenegger, it's a pleasure to pick your pocket from time to time, there is so much in the way of hanging fruit, a state with competitive tax regime, and business friendly environment, and regulatory environment on top of tax structure is something that also is bedevils for businesses, if you can streamline, that they have been in texas, have you a competitive environment, and california will have to beware of those incursions. neil: it does not appear that governor brown in california is too worried, the much closer threat to him is nevada, you could hop across the border. if you have a choice paying 13%, versus zero in nevada, you would go to nevada. what do you think is going on with republicans, they loo

at that moment in time during the american assess, rick -- process, rick perry was a very formidable opponent. we were running a campaign used on jobs and the economy. this is the governor of a state. people would say -- we knew he was formidable. we began the debate process. we did some in the debate. >> very aggressive early. >> early on. and when he had written about on security. >> i think he used the phrase "ponzi scheme." >> he did. by the third debate and we open up immigration, i think we had tugged the strings on governor perry. he did not need to go into that space. i stand by what i said. hindsight is 20/20. >> when did you know that perry was done? >> when he got out. governor perry is a formidable candidate. >> he was the only one who had the ability. >> no, no. i disagree with that. i think that for the republican primaries, like santorum, he was much more in sync with that than senator clinton was. obviously senator santorum did not have the formidable apparatus that hillary clinton had. >> do you think that it had -- >> what do we know about the republican party? what
