rick santorum. rick santorum. as a character on the republica candidates' debate show. rick santorum, why are you here on the republican candidates' debate show? >> not one person here mentioned the issue of family, faith, marriage. the traditional values of marriage and family. the partial birth abortion ban. family in america and faith in america. a moral conservative. that's not good for families. also doesn't have anything that takes care of the families. >> rick santorum's character on the debate show is the guy who talks about gay people and abortion and family values all the time and who complains the other candidates do not do enough of that. how about the michele bachmann character? why are you here on the republican candidates' debate show? >> the person who really has a problem with illegal immigration in the country is president obama. president obama has failed you. president obama's plan. it's because of president obama's. barack obama will be a one-term president. >> michele bachmann's character on the republican candidates' debate show is counter to her

right at five as i told time award and tonight it goes to rick santorum and the g.o.p. presidential candidate has zero chance of winning the nomination was through extreme even for the republican party and that's saying a lot the almost every debate and campaign event he launches into an attack on marriage equality record actually made gay rights a central issue of his campaign i support a constitutional amendment to ban same sex marriage i think that it marriage should be a consistent thing across the country marriage is the union of one man and one woman it's essential for the family it's essential for the stability of our of our culture to to make sure that children are given the best hope which is a mom and a dad and now all break has a right to voice voice his hateful opinion his positions on gay marriage or on obsession over the course of the campaign he's made several strange analogies on the issue on times to convince the american people of the institution of marriage is just not compatible with gay people. marriage is what marriage means marriage existed before

and one of them, former senator rick santorum caught the red aye from vegas and is here tonight in the senator seat. live from the studio in washington, this is "special report." good evening, i'm bret baier. familiarity is definitely breading contempt or something close to it among republican presidential candidates. they engage in the fifth debate in six weeks tuesday. if the gloves had been on before, they certainly came off last night. carm cameron has the blow-by-blow from las vegas. >> rick perry roared back offense, slamming mitt romney for hiring a lawn care company years ago that unbeknownst to romney employed illegal aliens. >> you stood here in front of the american people and did not tell the truth that you had illegals working on your property. >> we went to the company and said you can't have illegals on your property. >> he put a firm hand on his shoulder but mostly he belittled romney. >> you have a problem allowing someone to finish speaking, and i suggest if you want to be the president of the united states, you have to let people speak. it's been a tough couple of de

just because obama said that we'd be leaving so it's not still time award goes to rick santorum and really the whole republican field for being totally incoherent when it comes to the war in iraq. our guys it's time for happy hour and joining me tis evening as our team producer jenny churchill and julian fancher as research fellow at the cato institute thanks for joining me guys joy and welcome to happy hour it's good to be here never been on the force is exciting although it was with the if this is involved and then you're interested ok i just spent a little bit of time talking about some of the republican candidates and how and how clueless they are but obviously the one that really takes the cake here is rick perry he just keeps putting his foot in his mouth and here's the newest example. texas governor rick perry rocky issue over the president's birth certificate back into the headlines in an interview with parade magazine perry had this exchange governor do you believe that president barack obama was born in the united states very i have no reason to think otherwise than after

tonight tool time award tonight it goes to republican presidential candidate and former senator rick santorum the rick like the rest of the republican candidates has rushed to criticize president obama's announcement that the united states will be pulling out all troops in iraq at the end of twenty leavitt but it seems to me that the republican party is having a little bit of trouble here coming up with a coherent response to the president's announcer because they're really just all over the place yesterday rick santorum appeared on c.b.s.'s face the nation where he was asked about the very harsh republican response on the iraq pullout and then we'll take a listen to what he said in many respects we've lost control and lost the war in iraq. so according to rick santorum we've simply lost the war in iraq which was just a little confusing to me because i thought we already got that being taken care of back in two thousand and three officers and sailors of the u.s.s. abraham lincoln. my fellow americans. major combat operations in iraq have ended in the battle of iraq the united states and aroun

why drop out if you're rick santorum? >> i think that's what's driving this phenomena in this cycle. bachmann had her moment, perry had a moment. now cain has a moment. if you're rick santorum, you think, hey, i'm next. >> or jon huntsman. everybody can look and say there may be a path for me if things break the right way. gwen: i have to ask, where is michele bachmann now. she was a big deal a minute ago. >> she was and she is now, in our post-abc poll, she is at 7%. she's taken a tumble although she didn't drop much over the last month. she peaked the day she won the iowa straw poll and has gone down since and she's staking everything on iowa. if you talk to her now, she says iowa is the game. gwen: she's losing staff as she goes along, shedding people, which we assume is a money issue. thank you both very much. it's safe to say none of the republican presidential candidates are fans of the jobs bill president obama is pushing the last few weeks, but neither is the president's insistence nor a new round of tepid, not di

the "are you afraid of the dark" debate, and the "don't tell rick santorum we're canceling the debate" debate. by the way, santorum... ( cheers and applause ) yeah. santorum still came in fifth in that debate. things aren't going his way. so what can we possibly learn about the candidates during their third debate in 15 days? probably nothing. but the audience continues to surprise. >> in 2010 when i was deployed to iraq i had to lie about who i was because i'm a gay soldier. i didn't want to lose my job. my question is, under one of your presidencies, do you intend to circumvent the progress that's been made for gay and lesbian soldiers in the military? >> (audience: (booing). >> jon: yeah, boo. i give the audience credit. it takes a lot of balls to boo a guy who can stick your head in his biceps and crack it like a walnut. look at those things. those aren't bicpeps. if i'm sure if this guy turned into the hulk, his arms would stay the same size. they would just turn green. but of course rick santorum handled this ugly incident beautifully. no, he did not chastise any individuals in

. >> rick santorum thinks i would love his jobs plan. i'll let rick know why he's sorely mistaken. >>> you won't believe what they're trying to pull this time in ohio. >>> and new polling shows herman cain is the new republican front runner. even though he's pushing garbage like this. >> leftist folk in this country that are black, they're more racist than the white people. >> tonight michael eric dyson reacts to herman cain's attack on black liberals. >>> good to have you with us tonight, folks. thanks for watching. senate republicans and two turned coat democrats are standing in the way of creating millions of americans' jobs. late tuesday night the senate

i know newt gingrich, rick santorum. herman cain really has a chance to shine. he is surging because he is so smart and he has been so on point throughout this whole process. he's had less money to spend than some of the other candidates. >> joe, is that why he's surging? >> absolutely. think about who he is. he is a turnaround specialist, guy that turned around family franchises and did it getting them to take a second look at his product. he is doing the same with the voters. >> joe, i respectfully disagree. i think herman cain is the latest play. it was donald trump, then michele bachmann, now herman cain. sooner or later, people are going to accept the fact it is going to be mitt romney. you better deal with it. >> it is months and months of hard work for herman cain, his message is getting through and resonating with voters. >> he has no organization, no campaign. he has the 999. >> we're going to talk more about the 999 plan a little later. mitt romney yesterday, joe, even mitt romney said if you really like herman cain, perhaps you should take a really cl

why drop out if you're rick santorum? >> i think that's exactly what's driving the phenomena in this cycle. and that is that bachmann had her moment, perry had a moment, now cain has a moment. if you're rick santorum, think, hey, i'm next. >> or gingrich or jon huntsman. look and say there may be a path for me if things break the right way. gwen: i have to ask, where is michele bachmann now. she was a big deal a minute ago. >> she was, and she is now -- in our post abc poll, she is at 7%. she's taken a tumble although she didn't drop much over the last month. she peaked the day she won the iowa straw poll and has gone down since and she's staking everything on iowa. if you talk to her now, she essentially says iowa is the game. gwen: and she's losing staff as she goes along, shedding people, which we assume is a money issue. thank you both very much. it's safe to say, none of the republican presidential candidates are fans of the jobs bill president obama has been pushing these last few weeks, but neither the president's

whereas some of the other candidates, bachmann, rick santorum, they're spending lots and lots of time romney are seeing. >> michele bachmann and rick perry slipped in a big way in that state. has cain's surge been at their expense? >> reporter: well, the last time this poll came out, actually, rick perry, we weren't even sure if he was getting in or not. michele bachmann announced two days after the june poll came out. so it does appear, you know, that maybe perry getting in didn't have as much of an effect that we thought that would happen. cain obviously has been leading in a lot of the national polls, and this new poll in iowa of likely caucusgoers is showing that same trend, that he's still resonating. that business message is still resonating with voters. >> alex moe in des moines, iowa, for us, this morning. thank you, alex. >> reporter: thanks, craig. >>> we'll get the latest readings on the economy this week. on tuesday, we'll find out how many cars and trucks were sold in october. -outmakers hoping to repeat the success of september, when sales gained 10% over a year ago. the

our guys coming up on the other side of the break michele bachmann herman cain and rick santorum debate on this special holiday edition of iran fell. to the east the repetition of. what a protest nobody seems to know. that never ever sprayed the face of the argument that they're being overly dramatic. you know sometimes you see a story and it seems so for you think you understand it and then something else in here sees some other part of it and realize that everything is ok. i'm charging welcome to the big picture. mr. ok buddy welcome to our g.'s street northwest republican presidential debate now wait the mainstream media have been selectively allowing candidates to participate over the last couple of months leaving people out like gary johnson and so tonight we're going to continue that tradition actually going to make it even more exclusive joining me are republican presidential candidates herman cain rick santorum and michele bachmann and rick perry could be here tonight as campaign hasn't commented but word on the street is he's in rehab and since mitt romney just schools the othe

so far this hour you've heard from rick perry, rick santorum and ron paul.untsman is coming up, focusing only these days on the state of new hampshire. >> our town hall meetings are packed these days. we have a cup of very, very important months ahead in new hampshire. the vibe i'm getting, we're connecting with our message obje about rebuilding our manufacturing muscle in this country and getting people back to work is resonating with the all important people in the first primary state. >> more from him a bit later. >>> first michele bachmann and newt gingrich take on the federal government. one agency in particular doing an education forum in new york. >> this year there will be a 23% increase at the federal department of education and i believe that the department will grow from 4,200 employees to 4,600 employees. so we're seeing a great growth in education bureaucracy. i believe that they'll expand $1.8 billion, but i also believe that those moneys would be better spent in the local classroom and better determined by local parents. we're hurting america'

and rick santorum with third with 16%. by the way, rick perry came in fourth and mitt romney was sixth, both in single digits. >>> now to the continuing fallout over a perry supporter's remarks about mitt romney's religion. reverend robert jeffries said mormonism is a cult and romney is not a christian. later, cnn political correspondent jim acosta asked the pastor how he responds to voters who insist romney's religion should not be an issue. here's what he said. >> if you don't mind me saying, pastor jeffries, you created a bit of a stir coming out of that speech, because in talking to reporters, you said in pretty strong plain language what you think of mormonism. you described it as a cult. and you said that if republican votes for mitt romney, they're giving some credibility to a cult. do you stand by that comment? >> absolutely. that's not some fanatical comment. that's the historical position of the southern baptist convention, they have officially labeled mormonism as a cult. i think mitt romney is a good moral man,

. >> rick santorum thinks i would love his jobs plan. i'll let rick know why he's sorely mistaken. >>> you won't believe what they're trying to pull this time in ohio. >>> and new polling shows herman cain is the new republican front runner. even though he's pushing garbage like this. >> leftist folk in this country that are black, they're more racist than the white people. >> tonight michael eric dyson reacts to herman cain's attack on black liberals. >>> good to have you with us tonight, folks. thanks for watching. senate republicans and two turned coat democrats are standing in the way of creating millions of americans' jobs. late tuesday night the senate stopped the american jobs bill dead in its tracks. the 99% i think have every reason in the world to be out on the streets after this vote. washington is completely dysfunctional because elected officials, they are brain dead to what the american people really want and need. it's no wonder that congress has a record low approval rating of 13%. not a single republican voted to fund sch

to the next debates you look forward to seeing michele bachmann attacking him from the right, rick santorumng him from the right. obviously herman cain has risen pretty high in the national polls. i think all of those candidates are going to try to take a piece out of rick perry. i think rick santorum has every potential to see movement in his numbers in iowa. so you're going to see a pretty vigorous contest now about who's going to be the conservative alternative to romney and a pile-on in that part of the primary. it will be interesting to watch. >> in terms of what comes out of that conservative, say, sort of still unanswered fight it be the non-romney candidate, we've also got tea party groups and groups like dick armey's freedom works group that's corporate funded, direct action group. they have announced they'll oppose a romney nomination by the republican party. does that actually, does that keep the schism open for too long in order for romney to actually make the ground he needs to make this year? >> no. look, i think at the end of the day it's a pay for play organization that is g

you know people in the streets protesting corporations not paying their fair share and then rick santorum says he wants to bring corporate taxes down to zero percent so did republicans confirm what we've all been suspecting that they're really only looking out for the one percent in the country methink that was the most striking thing about that debate was how divorced from reality the whole field was to hear them tell it all our economic problems stem from taxes going to high and regulations being too onerous and wall street had absolutely nothing to do with the financial crisis that we all just lived through when when you talk to you with anybody on the street to actual economists this story is the complete opposite of course the revenues are the lowest they've been in sixty years no one really is complaining about regulations if you look at small business services they all say the fact that they don't have any customers is their main problem and wall street undeniably caused the financial crisis so they're just on another planet they're talking about something that's completely divorce

and rick santorum is hoping to be the guy who picks them up and becomes the big-name conservative in the race. we'll play "hardball" tonight with rick san storm. santorum. and jon huntsman finally came in first in a straw poll. that's the good news. the bad news is, well, check out the sideshow. and let me finish tonight with a need to watch the wall street protesters and listen to them for solutions. let's begin with the occupy wall street protests themselves. sherrod brown is a democrat from ohio. senator, if you were standing in wall street with the occupy wall street people, what placard would you be holding up in the air? >> that's a good question. i just think for the president to stand -- be on our side in the end. i mean, this isn't a liberal conservative left or right, it's whose side are you on, and the president's starting to fight more than he did. that's a good sign. i think the energy coming out of the wall street protesters is always a good thing. when people nonviolently speak out and stand for something, it's good to challenge authority when they do that. >> do you th

[laughter] >> he is a northeast replican governor of a blue state, and he governed in that way and he ran in that waand he has sent major heresieses. one specific issue is that republicans would like to use obamare as a proxy for the issue of big government, big spending, big debt, as in the midterm where it was extremely effective in defeating democrats. romney is disarmed on that because of massausetts. however, in t
