on to get to work she immediately backtracked from even during the debate and i think she told sean hannity afterwards on fox that you know of course you've got to keep the government running and i think you can charge brought that bridges and roads and stuff are the kinds of things government should have a role to play and so i but it's interesting because i think it is i mean we've we've been on this anti-tax crusader scene the roads are the same type tracks from say since ninety eight when reagan was elected and through that whole period i mean they've been trying to reduce reduce taxes and we're down to a point now where the rubber really hits the road you know you see it with the pledge that many of them have made not to raise taxes to go over the course pledge and at some point at some point you really have to start making those hard decisions it's no longer just a rhetorical gambit but you've got to make the tough policy decisions i think there are running up against that now we're running out of time a little bit so i'm going to skip the next clip and i want to push a few things tog

honest i was flattered to be included in the game along with my fox colleagues, bill o'reilly and sean hannity and, as lincoln said when he was run out of town, if it weren't for the honor of it i would just as soon pass and frankly after 20 years in politics i have had worses in this said about me, or done to me than simply being whacked by a videogamer. i even respect that in america, people have the right to produce and sell things that are tasteless and stupid, or even just plain mean-spirited and hate-filled and i don't think the youngs creator of the game ought to be arrested or banned and certainly shouldn't meet the same fate as he wishes upon me and others who happen to believe in things that he hates. i hope he doesn't claim to be for diversity, since he deals with it by killing off that which is diverse. my question for the fine, well educated snobs on the left who strip down their snippy noses at conservatives for daring to use language like targeting voters and trying to kill a piece of legislation, shooting down a bad proposal, would be this: where is their outrage, not for a mit

mitt romney told sean hannity on the radio last night that the republican party would be obliterated who the democrats could correctly accuse. his words not mine, correctly accuse of trying to get rid of social security. by the way, he spoke at that debate. he said that it's a ponzi scheme. he didn't say it needs to be fixed and we can fix it. what about the rick perry position on social security going into florida? >> i'm not sure if his position on social security is a ponzsy scheme therefore let's get rid of it. >> that's how mitt romney defines it. >> i don't think it is. we have a problem in social security. >> he didn't say that. he's been given a lot of opportunities to say that. are you a rick perry man? >> no. i'm not a rick perry man. i'm not a mitt romney fan either. i really like both of them. i think either one of them would be a fabulous president. and really know how to fix this comply because they've done it. >> thank you very much. stay tuned we'll check back on how this race is shaping up because every week it seems as though there's a different shape to the race fo

i guess sean hannity is asking the question, why don't you go on with him.will ask you don't go on with him? unless mack co rubio comes on with me. let's do a deal. i want to know why the florida senator thinks that we are a weaker country because of social security, medicare and medicaid. if you can work that deal out, if you stick with me on that, mr. hoffa, i appreciate it. i think that would be a fair trade, don't you? >> i'll get to work on it. >> thank you, mr. hoffa, appreciate your time tonight. there's a man who sticks to his guns. remember to answer tonight's question at the bottom of the screen. president obama had tough talk for republicans in a preview of his jobs speech. i'll tell the president what else i think i need to hear of this address coming up for working americans later this week. >>> and rick perry has a few super pac folks out there that really want to give him a lot of money. and he's still leading in the latest poll. jim moore will join us for the latest. stay with us. >>> james hoffa isn't the only one firing up the working class

that's shame. >> just hours ago, bachmann changed her tune while speaking with sean hannity. >> so thatthat the cause -- is that one of the side effects of this? because i've not heard that. >> i have no idea. >> she has no idea. what's going on here? joining me now, heidi harris, host of "the heidi harris show" out of las vegas and also joining us tonight, mike papantonio, host of "the ring of fire" radio show. great to have both of you with us tonight. heidi, let's start with you. red state's erick erickson calls bachmann's claims the gop equivalent to howard dean's scream. do you agree with this? is this an odd and unfortunate moment for her? >> i agree with a lot of what michele bachmann said about government mandating a vaccine. there have been people who died from it and had severe reactions. i can't address the mental retardation. as i recall, michele bachmann never said a doctor has proven mental retardation is caused by it. she said a mother told her that that her own daughter suffered from mental retardation. is that attributable to the vaccination? i don't know. i don't think

so perry has got to go after romney and he started last night on sean hannity's program by saying heydon't want to elect an obama lite. that's what perry said about romney. he's got to keep that up tonight. >> i think he absolutely does. meanwhile, he's in a tough spot, though, while in a general election, "local 2" electability is very hard for rick perry. he's while he's trying to do that, he's got rick santorum and michelle bachman, a little bit of ron paul all pushing him on the right. he's got to protect that right flank at exactly the same time. so the degree of difficulty for rick perry tonight is quite high. >> bill: do you see them ganging up on perry again as they did last time? do you think that will happen again? >> i was thinking about that. you would think that there is a chance that some of the ones would try to go after romney. yet when you look at those who need traction, when you look at rick santorum, when you look at ron paul, they have to really -- when you look at michelle bachman, they need to start doing better in iowa which means they need to start to feel som

sean hannity, he's already whining about paying more than 50% of his $100 million radio contract and multimillion-dollar tv contract in taxes. >> i pay new york state tax, county tax, sales tax, property tax, federal income tax. i pay 55% of my income in taxes and the president is hitting us over the head with a baseball bat saying we're not paying our taxes. >> i guess he could join his buddy o'reilly and pack it in. he'd never do it. hannity wants, i guess, for nothing. he could pay 90% in taxes and still live better than 98% of great american who is listen to his garbage that he cranks out on a daily basis. if he was intellectually honest, he would admit president obama isn't asking him to pay 50%. he lives pretty good in a mansion on long island. and you know what? that's his choice. and he's earned it. but here's the deal. every primetime cable host is in the top 1% of income earners in this country. it's a fact. it's really easy to go buy any house you want, depending on how you want to live, eat in the finest restaurants and fly on private jets. and i guess you could say live

later that day on sean hannity's radio show she tried to qualify her expertise.'s listen to her then. >> i am not a doctor. i'm not a scientist. i'm not a physician. all i was doing is reporting what this woman told me last night at the debate. >> well, the american academy of pediatrics quickly corrected bachmann saying her comments have no scientific validity, that's the phrase they used and we call the campaign of bachmann for comment. when asked numerous times whether they had reached out to the woman who made that claim about her daughter having suffered mental retardation as a result of taking the vaccine, the answer was varying versions of, quote, our focus on overreach of executive privilege and kroeny capitalism, two transgressions they say governor rick perry made when he tried to use an executive order to push through the vaccination program from a drug maker represented by a former staffer and later today rick perry weighed in with this. >> i think that was a statement that was no truth and no basis in fact, and, look, i hate cancer, and that's what t

. >> and here's how she defended those comments later on sean hannity's radio show.> i am not a doctor, i'm not a scientist, i'm not a physician. all i was doing was reporting what this woman told me last night at the debate. >> "reporting"? what the hell does that mean?! parroting. reporting? as if she's engaging in some sort of study group. some nut case comes up to me about building seven and i ignore them. she comes on television, it's just been reported to me that this was a conspiracy. that president george w. bush blew up the world trade center. >> it wasn't like that. >> it isn't? >> no, i don't think so. i think what she was doing was trying to convey and relay to the audience more broadly speaking, not just to you, chris, the connection between the event that we're -- >> but there is no connection. >> oh, well -- >> there's no scientific -- >> this mother comes up to her -- >> there's never been a reported case of mental retardation -- >> but she doesn't know that. >> alex, get in here. >> she doesn't -- that's right. she doesn't know that. >> i think that

he said this in an interview with sean hannity in october 2009, what i support are common sense laws that will allow people to protect themselves. but i'm also very concerned about the safety of our police officers on the streets, very concerned. and i want to make sure that we don't have an abundance of guns out there. so trying to find a middle ground on gun control. >> well, but that's not going to make lots of republicans happy, conservative republicans happy. just like perry disappointed them on the immigration issue. >> no border fence. >> exactly. and the hpv vaccine. so there is no perfect candidate. and into that vacuum jumps, i would argue, romney. because romney, by being sort of the slow -- the steady guy, maybe the person that lots of republicans are now thinking who can beat barack obama because romney can actually make the race about barack obama by not being exciting or controversial. >> one more on the issues, climate change, which the conservatives, again, is a tough one. here is chris christie sounding, forgive me governor, like al gore.

senator jim fox's sean hannity he may not even show up for the speech. >> i'm sick of speeches. this is probably the tenth speech of various kinds he said is his jobs speech. i want to see something in writing. and what the president is talking about is more of the same. spending the evening listening to him talk about things that will never end up in legislation is pretty frustrating. a lot of people are hurting. our economy is in serious danger. the debt is getting worse every day and the president is just giving speeches. alisyn: do other republicans agree with demint? we'll ask roy blunt to weigh in on the president's jobs plan. bill: mitt romney unveiling his own jobs plan. describing a 59-point plan he says will increase economic growth and create 11 million jobs in four years. >> growing our economy is the way to get people to work and to balance our national budget. the right answer for america is not to grow government or to believe that government can create jobs. it is instead to create the conditions that allow the private sector and entrepreneurs to create jobs and

. >> sean: i think he's ever said the words, hannity you are right. >> maybe not. >> she intimidates >> sean: i think that's what it is. there's 1% of millionaire households that don't pay their taxes. this is what they found on average the wealthiest in america pay more in taxes than the middle class or the poor according to private and government data. they pay at a higher rate. they contribute much larger share. top 1% pays 40%. top 10% pays 70 plus percent. so the president lied yesterday. >> let's not use strong language like that. warren buffet is being deliberately misleading. he is saying we rich people should be paying more. rich people do pay more as a portion. furthermore, warren buffet is deliberately misleading by confusing tax on capital gains and tax on income. furthermore, this man is making a lot of money out of what he's saying. he sells insurance products through berkshire hathaway they do well when tax rates go up. there's a conflict of interest there. he has become the primary crony capitalist in the obama administration. he's wrong. >> sean: i bet he's going to

megyn: governor perry indirectly firing back at governor romney on sean hannity's show. >> i think it'stant for the people of america and the republican primary to see the clear differences the candidates have and we need to mom united nations -- nominate someone who will have a stark clear difference between the republican nominee and president obama. i think i'm that person who can clearly delineate the differences. we don't need to nominate obama light or someone who will blur the lines between president obama and our nominee. chris stirewalt is here in orlando as well. it seems as if rick perry may have read your power play where you write the following. the for romney hits perry on social security, the more republican primary voters who mostly agree with perry will be annoyed by this line of attack. so when perry was given an opportunity to respond. he tried to focus on president obama, then a few jabs with governor romney at the end. do you think he's reading "power play"? >> i think what you are seeing right now -- you called it sparring, and this is like before a heavyweight pri

. >> sean: welcome to a special edition of hannity. former vice president cheney's new book hit the shelf days ago. it is called "in my time." already stirring up controversy in washington, d.c.. colin powell may be one of the most riled up. in the book the vice president says he was not sad to hear about general powell's resignation in 2004. noting secretary powell went out of his way to criticize the bush administration while serving in it. general powell hit back over the weekend. >> mr. cheney has had a long and distinguished career and i hope in his book that's what he will focus on not at cheese cheap shots he's taking at me and other members of the administration who served to the best of our ability. he says i went out of my way not to present my position to the president but take them outside of the administration. that's nonsense. >> sean: we are honored to have former vice president cheney with us for the hour. thank you for being with us. >> sean, it is great to be here. [ applause ] >> sean: were you surprised at collin po

they talked about gun control, about how he told our own sean hannity how he favors some gun control measures in new jersey, how on climate change he said that he believes in climate change and that humans pay a contributing role, and they went on and on from there. it reminded me of what we saw a bit with rick perry where the republicans need to be looking for a white knight, he came in, there was a little love affair, and then the more they heard of him, the more they thought, oh, wait, he's not perfect for conservative republicans. might the same thing have happened to chris christie for those republicans out there now who are feeling disappointed on this news? >> it would have happened to ronald reagan in this day and age if you really want to look at it, megyn, you're absolutely right. you know, there is no perfect candidate out there. we can't look for the perfect. and i think that's a big mistake that, in fact, we make at this point in time. if, indeed, barack obama is going to get beat by the republicans in november 2012, this is the party that needs to come together and be t
