. >> will you sign up for obama care? >> i don't know. >> i'm not planning on it. >> not something i'm doing at this time. >> fast food workers protest the federal minimum wage. how much do you want to pay for a cheeseburger? >> i look at obama as a perfect american. i felt this tingle up my leg. >> the president obama lovefest. "hannity" starts here, right now. we have a busy show planned. our hearts are with nelson mandela who died at 95. he was jailed for nearly three decades fighting against apartheid. we'll follow the story at the fox news channel. we are learning more and more about what a disaster obama care is. millions are learning they cannot keep the doctors they have on their insurance plan. they were promised they could but they can't. the website is such a mess people can't sign up. it is plagued with huge security risks and we are left with no choice. this law has to be repealed, replaced and like they did when they were selling the disastrous low to the american people, democrat democrats are lying again t

in new york breath of fresh air a lot of people say but let's go to president obama. he's got very low numbers in the polls right now about forty six that's the lowest during his time in office and a lot of people are saying at home and abroad this guy just doesn't cut the mustard he doesn't have the oem to get his agenda through and hence he is a lame duck now agree or disagree. well i i really disagree i mean any time you have three years ago on any term that's a really too soon to make that kind of declaration in american politics so barack obama has a little bit of distance right now but he has some some great opportunities to implement he said gently ok that was short and sweet don we have a lame duck president in the in the white house right now i don't know if a lame duck is an appropriate saramago back to the issue of an agenda i don't know what the agenda is part of the agenda was to bring in the health care reform that's been done to a degree i mean there are issues with that it's a step forward a baby step forward people acted obama thinking they were going

obama is in over his head. author of "miracles and massacres, true and untold stories of the making of america" and host of his own nationally syndicated radio show. he runs the blaze which is one of of the top website miss the country. glenn beck. >> thank you very much. >> how are you? >> very good, sean. >> happy holidays. >> yeah. >> i consider myself a tea party conservative. think you do, too. >> mm-hmm. >> why is the establishment republican now fighting the guys like lee and cruz and rand and marco? why this divide? >> really? you want me to answer that? i would love to. >> i want you to. >> yeah. progressivism. you remember when i went to cpac. was that four years ago? made the republicans very uncomfortable because i said progressivism isn't just a disease in the democrats. it runs in the republicans. i wrote down john mccain's name and lindsey graham's name. there are a lot of progressive republicans. theodore roosevelt started it. they believe in big government. i'm sorry to say and you know this to

and obama is under water. in 2014, they're going to have to quarantine this guy in the white house, because he will be hemlock to democrats running for the senate. he's already a drag in many of these states. and, again, whereas i say he had some effective aneck dotes here. i don't see how he wins the macro element because there are so many elements going wrong in the whole program. >> he should have said the republican ideas are bad ideas. instead, he said there were never any. he gets caught once again in saying something that's not right. that's just not true. >> what does he do though? when he goes after somebody the republicans say we do have ideas. we got this, that and the other, and if he's in a debate like that, he's in a better debate than he is with the morning papers saying another disaster's occurred. >> so any way, what happens with all this? >> you know, i don't see how this thing ends. i really don't. i think he's determined. he's going to veto. >> he said he's determined. >> he's going to veto

is obama's own law. so which you have -- what you have here is what a lot of us predicted years ago. the insurers under the best care of -- best case of obama care have as much as those regulated under the administration and even if you take the best math of this administration and everyone of the millions -- let's assume everyone is enrolled, you have 6 million losing insurance, so under the best case scenario, 5.5 million americans are without insurance now as before obama care and they are going to show up in the e.r. and doctor's offices in january and they'll have to get coverage. how? the government will order the insurance to cover them even if they have no insurance. >> george, i tacked to someone -- i talked to someone in the insurance industry today who guest mated based on knowledge that of the 365,000, that half of them are part of that 5.9 million, or whatever that were kicked off. so roughly 830,000 people searching for plans. they had a plan and needed to scramble to get one and roughly ha

enter the obama administration. yesterday the white house announced its delegation to the sochi olympics and does not include the president, does not include the first lady, the vice president or any former president or any real high profile political figure of any sort. it does however, include the former secretary of the department of homeland security, janet napolitano. some one who is not even currently in the cabinet or any elected position. it also includes the u.s. ambassador to russia, a presidential assistant, a deputy, secretary of state, a handful of former u.s. olympians including two athletes who are openly game. billie jean king. ice hockey olympian. we're not sending any high profile politicians to the games but are two sending two openly gay athletes. the statement the government wants to make. in a lot of ways a new experience for russia. a proud country at many times in its history has been happy to ignore, defy, thumb its nose at conventions of the rest of the world. that can change a little bit w

. >> barack obama and obama care. >> eleanor? >> you've got a small point there, pat. but the president still has his job. i think the biggest loser is the president of egypt, mr. morsi, who was deposed in the military coo and has not been heard from since. >> clarence? >> well, i think the lack of coherence strategy to deal with the obama care setbacks of even a bigger loser than president obama. >> martin? >> i've got a tied. the city of detroit, which went bankrupt, and the average american working class individual whose real wages have declined at a time of relative prosperity. >> the biggest loser is the concept of red lions. obama drew them and then smudged them, and then erased them completely. it will be a long, long time before any president invokes red lions to signal the prohibited behavior. okay, best politician, pat. >> the president of iran. >> i would give it to pope francis. he loves people, and that really is a key ingredient if you're going to be a politician. >> are you stuck in that track or what? >> pope francis. >> he deserves all the things we ca

>> first i feel like i have to say three or four times, obama care, obama care, obama care, since jay carney is now forbidd forbidden. the president uses it all the time. >> last year on the campaign trail, he said it, i like it, obama care. >> when you don't like the policy you get on the exchanges, that's not obama care, that's a private insurance company giving you a policy. when it's benefits, it's obama care. i guess that's just politics. bill clinton, bill clinton is great, you know. bill clinton is 24/7 worrying about mrs. clinton, secretary clinton's chances for 2016. she'll be in a tricky position, i mean, she was part of the obama administration. she can't really walk away from it. on the other hand, she's not going to want, i think, to inherit all the baggage that might be there by 2016. >> there is something about whether or not calling it obama care is a problem, susan. today, house minority whip steny hoyer told reporters, quote, i wish i hadn't called it obama care before because that has politicized it and has been used by republicans as a pejorative term. by calling i

michelle obama's bang. the president obama said in that beach, we cannot and do not want to exist in a perpetual state of war but there has to be an end to this at some point. that day he authorized it drove strike in yemen and they're creating the disposition matrix, an algorithm to ensure the assassination will remain a central component of what is called the u.s. national security policy. at the end of the day, we reach a point in some countries we reached a point where we are creating more new enemies than we are killing actual terrorists. it's not that states don't have a right to defend themselves. it's abrogation of former three-time. like minority report with tom cruise or recategorize people after they've killed them even if we have no idea what their identities are. president obama when he talked about 600 days after i were a lucky was killed, president obama finally admitted publicly the u.s. had in fact killed anwar a lackey. on that day, his frustration for papers defending the idea that al-awl

well didn't she wear the ballot with the vote check on obama. and how many people voted for obama? >> 60 million. so that means 250 million did not? >> no. eric, you can't vote if you are 3 years old. i know you like to have that right. by the way, i never heard of her before. she's a good looking broad. >> i like her. i think it is weird that she knows -- everybody knows her parents are republican. i think that is close minded. >> i thought that was disgusting. >> it is disgusting. >> and the more i talk to liberals, the more i feel i'm right in my conservative views. >> can we run that again so i can decide if -- no, the other one. keep going to a couple of others there. >> the green dress. >> there is another one. >> they took the banner down. >> we're building up bob's mental bank for later. >> thank you very much. >>> and a snow ball fight leads to the suspension of one college playir and other members of his team could be in trouble as well. all for throwing a little snow. we'll show you the video. >>> what does that mean? >>> we've been known to take down some college profes

cross not whether obama is a lame duck i'm joined by my guests in new york chet why he's a democratic political strategist and we also have don de bar he is an anti-war activist and host of a daily radio program right gentlemen cross talk rules in fact that means you can jump in any time you want and i very much encourage it chet if i go to you first in new york congratulations on your victory. race in new york a breath of fresh air a lot of people say but let's go to president obama he's got very low numbers in the polls right now about forty six that's the lowest during his time in office and a lot of people are saying at home and abroad this guy just doesn't cut the mustard he doesn't have the to get his agenda through and hence he is a lame duck now agree or disagree. well i i really disagree i mean anytime you have three years of math on a term. there are really too soon to make that kind of declaration in american politics so barack obama has a little bit of distance right now but he has some some great opportunities to implement his agenda ok that was short and sweet don do we

do you approve of obama care? 57% disapprove. are you likely to enroll in obama care? 45% unlikely. 22% likely. is that what this is about, chris? >> it is. one of my favorites in that harvard university and student politics poll is where 47% say they would recall the president from office if they could. they would take him out of his job today if they could. by the time we got to the obama care crash, we had six months of the worst beginning of a presidential second term since richard nixon. it was bad. this presidency was off on the wrong track. it was off on the wrong track on the nsa which was a massive breach of trust. this much spying was a massive breach of trust with the voters. young v those issues. they live online, on the internet, on their devices. the president was snooping. he deceived them about that. that breach of trust might have been forgiven because it was related to national security. when that's compounded and amplified by a deception about people's health insurance and then, ironically for the internet president, the guy who was so good at spying

didn't she wear the ballot with obama -- the vote check on obama. how many people voted for obama? >> 60 million. >> so that means 250 million did not? >> no. >> do you know why, because you can't vote if you're three years old. i know you guys would like to have that. first of all, i don't know who this woman is. i have no thoughts about it. never heard of her before. >> no. >> never have. except she's a good-looking babe. >> hear me roar? that's it. >> i love her. i buy her music. i don't care if she is a republican or democrat. i think it's weird that she assumes that everybody knows her parentsblicans. who cares. let them watch you perform with the president. they're not closed minded. she is closed minded. >> i thought she was disgusting. >> the more i talk to liberals the more strongly i feel i'm right in my views. >> can we run pictures of her again so i can decide -- no, the others. keep going. >> no. >> green dress. >> no, not that one. it's another one. >> they took the banner down. >> we're building up bob's mental bank for later. >> thank you very much. >> ahead, a snow

that, of course, president obama on his obama care marketing blitz, leading up to the fast approaching december 23rd sign-up deadline. now that's a mere 18 days away. now, here's the fact. enrollment needs to double by december 23rd, just to hit obama's half million mark. and another fact, to date, it is estimated that some four to five million americans have had their current health care policies canceled. a lot more folks will have lost health insurance than have gained it under obama care. that looks like the forecast. anyway, let's talk. we have democratic strategist steve mcmahon and emily miller, "washington times" opinion page senior editor. emily, go to you first. welcome. thank you for coming on the show. by the time we get to that week, december 23rd to january 1st, are there going to be more uninsured than insured? is the table going to be turned against obama care? >> absolutely, larry. this house of cards that is obama care is falling down already. the problem is the whole thing was based on the scheme that they were going to get young people who are healthy to sign up so

obama motors. obama used car sales. obama-bama, obama, everything is wrong with obama. guess what, it rebounded big time. overall, taxpayers lost $10 billion on the deal. this is debatable. i think it's a very small price to pay for saving 1.5 million american jobs in our economy, and also the domino effect of all the suppliers. and i think it's very important to point out that the republican caused the government shutdown. well, how much was that? $25 billion. think about that. oh, we throw a little bit of money out on the car lot. but $10 billion isn't a bad deal. to save the american automobile industry. both rounds of auto loans face massive opposition from republicans. especially when president obama took office. luckily, back in 2009, the white house was held by the democrats. and the senate held by the democrats. and the house under democratic control, as well. now, think about this. do you think boehner -- do you think mcconnell -- if they had the power they would have done anything to save the automobile industry? thank god the right people were in power. they

why do you bash president obama? >> i don't see it as bashing president obama at all. there is a reason why journalism is the only sited job in the united states constitution. and that is because we have three branches of government. and if those three branches of power collude together against the interest of the people the press is the forth estate. and journalist have a role to take against those in authority. what i would say to the caller is go back and look at my record in reporting on clinton, bush j obama. i have been consistent towards those in power and that is a core tenant of journalism. it doesn't how president obama treats his daughter. i care about how he treats the broader children in america by his policies. >> robert, you are on booktv. >> hi, jeremy, thanks for taking the call. first off, thank you for your courage is being the last shining light of journal'tshinig light of journa shining light of journal'ism. and it was cool to hear you write the letter and i will pester you to get an internship in the new outlet you are starting. i watched the film

in fact, under obama, it's gotten worse. four out of five american families are experiencing poverty. 9 million jobs have been lost. pardon me since obama took office. 9 million. they are just gone. >> so. >> because of his policies, the arena of ideas, this is where the republican party is not standing up, they are not pushing back, they are not articulating what is the opposite of this. and one of the things, i mean, you can point to successful people all over the country. no matter how successful, different levels of it you point to them. how did they do it? that's all -- how did he d. they do it? there are recipes. they cared, they worked hard. they had ambition. they learned what they had to learn. some of them might have had connections here and there. nobody does everything by themselves. but you are certainly not going to eradicate poverty by creating dependency. santa claus is not a cure for poverty. it isn't going to' ha. all it is is a way to buy votes. that's why the democrats want amnesty. see, the democrat part

and here is the irony that obama hostage is obama care. it is something he created. >> and there you have charles krauthammer who believes that the president has fallen victim to his own equipments. that is his signature achievement. and this as a new abc washington post poll shoes president obama with the job approval at this point. kristin powers, great to have you both here with us. >> let me start with you. do you agree with charles krauthammer that the president is a hostage to obama care and that it eclipses everything else and he can't get anything else done? >> it seems hard for him to get a head of it. it seems like every time he has partially solved a problem another problem comes up. partially solved and the problems never actually get completely solved. and i think that this is going to continue to go on for sometime. and who even knows what other new system coming out about it. we can't predict that. it seems like every time we break out the newspaper. it is obama care. and so as long as that is going on it is an albatrosz aro

president obama tries everything we can to get the attention away from the obama care, anything. today he went back to his old stand by, the rich. for more on the president's remarks about, quote, income inequality, end quote, let's bring in nbc's own steve handelsman. steve. >> reporter: larry, thanks. this was president obama trying to refocus on helping the middle class that he said relative to the rich was in a long, slow slide from the 1970s and seemed to be doing better when housing and wall street got super hot six years ago. >> when the music stopped and the crisis hit, millions of families were stripped of whatever cushion they had left, and the result is an economy that's become profoundly unequal. >> mr. obama in professor mode had stats. america's top 10% now earn half of all u.s. income, up he said from 1/3. ceos he said used to make 20 to 30 times what workers do, now he said make 273 times more and the top 1% of americans who have net worts now 288 times what a typical u.s. family has. >> that is a dangerous and growing inequality and lack of upward mobility that h

but it turns out obama won and then obama won again. and hillary served as the secretary of state. >> you know, joy, one of the reasons i was big on obama was the iraq war issue. because of all these other politicians that supported the war which everybody does. support a war especially in the middle east, it's the safest move. it's the smart move, you know. and this guy, state senator from out in illinois did say rather adroitly and well timed, he said i'm against this damn war. not his words, mine. i think that was the key to a lot of us. white or black. but people like me, a 60-sort of person. the vietnam war still haunts me. wasted lives, wasted hopes, wasted years of our country and killing a lot of other people as well. i didn't think it was a fairy tale. i thought it singled him out as a leader. my thought. what's yours? >> exactly. you used the word frustration earlier. that's what you heard. the clintons underestimated a couple of things. on the war issue, they underestimated the strength on the democrats. where they came to va

they were tossed off their plans outlawed under obama care and they would be urged into obama care. but 80 percent of the americans whose insurance hasn't been altered by the law, huge consequences are a head in 2014. what is consequential for the president and americans, how does it work when you graph obama care in the system. it will not be favorable. >> the risk pool is thin. all of the insurance companies are saying that, not enough healthy people are signing up and places a greater burden and costs on the entire system and older americans and so- called death spiral. look, if insurance companies began to lose billions built in obama care legislation, is the taxpayer bail out, boy, how unhappy would taxpayers be if that happens? >> i don't know how they could hate washington more, but they might find a way. there is a provision in the law, a bridge loan for the insurance industry that partners with the president in crafting the law that they can have a pal aative 2 billion to dump in the industry industry. but the death spiral, people will lose their insurance or see premiums s

obama administration says it met its deadline to fix healthcare.gov. but it is also telling people there is no rush to sign up. as more enrollment deadlines are pushed back, is the website the least of obama care's problems? we'll ask two health care experts on opposite sides of the debate, james capretta and neera tanden. plus, our sunday panel weighs in on white house efforts to lower expectations for obama care's online relaunch. then, skepticism over last week's deal with iran. the president obama is calling a victory for diplomacy. >> we cannot rule out peaceful solutions to the world's problems. tough talk and bluster may be the easy thing to do politically, but it is not the right thing for our security. >> but will the deal halt iran's nuclear ambitions? we'll discuss that and the growing confrontation with china with former cia and nsa director general michael hayden. and our power player of the week this holiday season is not your typical turkey farmer. >> i'm happiest[m-khz i'm engagd in working and thinking and striving. >> all right now on

obama administration is saying the right stuff. the problem is the president often says the right stuff then does the wrong stuff. with chosen, it's not about rhetoric. it's about actions. certainly, we don't want an outbreak of hostilities of any kieventd right now, china is acting very dangerously as you know very well, emore wars start by accident tan by calculation. i feel as with the iranians, as with premier putin as with islamist extremists, we are seen as a power in retreat, led by a president who refuses to lead. >> up next the majority of republican senators that are up for re-election pay some considerable competition from within their own party. we'll show you why and we'll have the a-team's reaction, analysis and outlook. here next. so ally bank has a raise your rate cd . . >> a new challenge emerging in republican efforts to win control of the senate next year. to do so, they need to score six seats. take a look, there are some inherent advantages, 21 democratic senate seats are up for re-election next year compared t

you have hillary and president obama together. yet on the outside it appears as if she maybe wants to distance herself, i guess because of obama care. >> she has a high wire act she has to perform right now. because if she does run, she worked for the president. but yet she doesn't want to be associated with him if the health care rollout and the rest of this goes south. she has to balance what's good for her. and it doesn't look right now that being aligned with obama is that good for her. >> it's interesting, because i remember when i first started in journalism in the early '90s. we were talking about hillary care. it really does go all the way back to hillary clinton. but understandably now, with all of the debacle of the rollout, howard, she doesn't want to be associated with this. right? >> that is true. but at the same time, she doesn't want to alienate president obama's core supporters, particularly african-american voter who is she may need in 2016. james carville, long time clinton intimate, told me the other day no succ

obama care. >> we have to put on paper what we stand for and compare to the president's health care law to show american people what the differences are between our parties. >> democrats make the same case with strat joist suggesting their party took a hit on the roll out. >> if you whole -- your whole bet is on this and it is perceived to be improving -- >> the highly respected independent group has crowned the claim if you like your plan you can keep it. their lie of the year for 2013. they say this was an effort by the president to calm nerves about complicated new law. in the end it was a promise they say was impossible to keep. >> another dust up about white house transparency. >> harsh language from the associated press where he charged the president is hypocritical and undemocratic on not following through on transparen transparency. the official white house photographer has been allowed in. the dust off including the trip to south africa, president barack obama and president bush on air f

mandela , pero fue esta escena la que acaparo la atención mundial el momento que el presidente barack obama le estrecho la mano a raúl castro es la primera vez que le da la mano a un líder del régimen cubano de eso hablaremos más adelante vamos con pablo y el homenaje que llevó la paz a sudáfrica . >> no fue funeral tradicional ni presente el cuerpo de nelson mandela pero si rhonran las diferencias de credos en estadio de fútbol decena de presidentes y dignatarios ridnen tributo a nelson mandela . >> el mundo acompaña este momento dice que se necesita una persona como él . >> esto también sirvió para ver una imagen la viuda de nelson mandela se acerco a la esposa de él winnie . >> momento importante el discurso del presidente barack obama que destaco el legado que dejó madiva para las próximas generaciones . >> el más aplaudido también . >> nunca más veremos a alguien como él , a los jóvenes del mundo ustedes pueden adueñarse de su ejemplo . >> unió a un presidente en función y otros a bush clinton y carter . >> también latinoamérica presente . >> el presidente de m�

this is not what president obama does. when somebody is going to be fired, it's done so two or three months later. it's the whole no drama obama. i'm sorry. maybe i'm wrong about this, but i'm watching the body language and i'm watching how things are working when it comes to the current hhs secretary. and i'll be surprised if she's there in four months, but this is not something they're going to do today because they don't believe in doing it as a story. it's figuring out how to use the executive branch and how to get around congress. he didn't have a congress to work with too well in the last two years, they were busy trying to impeach president clinton. so they worked on how to stay relevant using the executive branch. that's what john podesta is best at. >> there was a vacuum of leadership. i asked the president about that vacuum which chuck just mentioned last week. let's talk about the chief executive, you. and let's talk about a lot of these young people came here to study government and how it can be run. there's a

>> isn't it unconscionable that obama is forcing these kind of things? >> if all you liberals like to hear the american people need to be more generous, et cetera, these are people that care about their communities. now the communities will be put in a spot because again, another bad element of a bad law, ill-conceived that is far more expensive than anyone thought. look, juan, you keep living in l l lala land, look what happened, the president dropped 24% among h hispanics, the president is l e losing millennials. the polls are showing -- >> i can't believe i'm talking to scrooge hannity. >> i can't believe i'm talking to scrooge juan. >> let me just tell you something, in fact, most hispanics in the country still support president obama. >> 24% dropped. >> i say most support. >> you're talking about these millennials? you know what the polls show? they want it to be more liberal. >> the polls are wrong, then, the polls are saying they don't want obama care. >> juan, you don't get away with saying obama is taking care of the middle class and the poor be

i wonder how many experts and how long it took to help president obama sign up for obama care? he did it and they are saying he didn't have to but did it symbolically. what do you think? >> another publicity stunt. i would like to see the videotape of him signing up and getting on line. catherine sebelius tried to get on line and famously was unable to do so. i would like to see the techies room to clear the path to let him sign upon. unfortunately the rest of us do have to because it is the law. >> sort of. he is one of the 85 percent of the americans who get employer sponsored health care. this is a gimmick. he didn't have to do it. republicans called for him to do it. and richard, i am not sure why he gave in to the demands since it was all for show? >> alisyn, the reason why the president signed up. he understands how important the law is and system works. in a press conference he talked about how the roll out was not all he wanted it to be. but how important it is to the american people. i and my family will sign up for the affordable care act and she it is important. >> h

the verdict is in on the obama economy. according to the latest polling, the majority of americans, 59% say, they personally feel the economy has finally begun to recover. but here is the kicker. there may be improvement, but no thanks to the president. 55% disapprove of obama's job on the economy. and the president's overall disapproval has climbed to an all-time high of 54%. now, these amazingly bad polls make it clear the economy has proved to be no silver bullet for the president, but the question is, why? let's talk. here now is democratic strategist steve mcmahon. john hinderacker is back with us. terry jeffrey returns. cns news editor and chief. my pal, terry jeffrey. why is it that with the economy improving, i know it's not great, but it is improving. why doesn't obama get credit? why is his poll so lousy? >> i think obamacare is at the heart of it but part of something bigger. earlier this year the census bureau showed numbers in first quarter 2011, 108 million americans were getting one or more means tested feder

he said president barack obama has been honest about obama care, should not have spoke in absolute. can you have it both ways? >> bob often has it both ways. >>> this is a great opportunity for the republican party. they've already got a platform. it should be let's start over and pretend this never happened. america would be happy to pretend this is bobby in dallas. all of a sudden america wakes up and bobby is in the shower going did that really happen in obama care? it didn't really happen. or it's like a giant etch sketch. just shake it and start over. that should be the republican platform. >> can i shoot you is ier about you that you asked was a shot, i thought it was a compliment. >> i don't remember. >>> special programming photo, set your dvr for next wednesday. charles krauthammer will join us live on the set the entire hour. that's must see tv. bob can't wait. coming up, the golden globe nominations are in. eric has the list. one of the hottest shows got snubbed. we'll tell you which one when we come back. >>> welcome back everybody. we've got three hot topics for you. ni

president obama says, hey, in obama care i'm willing to compromise. if you have a better solution, bring it to me and we'll talk. that's what he's said a number of times. the republican party is all over the place on obama care, on immigration, on a number of issues. people think that's a debate. you get a better result. in the meantime the democrats can say, all they do is say no. the party of no. i haven't seen an obama care republican, a unified -- that everybody can understand. >> look. it is going to be because that's the way it is when you don't have the white house. when you put your finger on a good point, the republicans have to be for something. the interesting thing is we have four major pieces of comprehensive legislation, all aimed at the health care arena. there are a lot of common elements like allowing for the sale of health insurance across state lines, allowing small businesses to pool risk so they get the same discounts the big boys get. makinging health insurance truly transportable by giving the tax vanl to the individual as well

to be all about obama care. the botched rollout of health listing healthcare.gov gop chances of taking the senate and retaining control of the house. from the miami herald. remember in october 2013 when the government shutdown was going to be disastrous for republicans? now health care is dominant, flipping the tables on democrats, who have the added burden of president barack obama 's declining popularity. tom is in maryland on our democrats' line. go ahead. the gentleman who was calling about the affordable health care act and he does not think he should be forced to buy it. i do not like to pay federal income tax. but it is the law. the affordable health care act is the law. we have to abide by the law unless we want to pay the consequences. evengentleman does not know how much it is going to cost him compared to what he is paying. he has not made a comparison with the affordable health care act with what he is paying now. he is going by soundbites and was somebody has told him. host: let's go to our republic

obama care insurance. we will have considebly more comment on those circumstances here tonight. i'm lou dobbs. >>> good evening everybody. the president today defiantly declared that baem care is here to stay regardless of its failures during a metimes rambling, at times contradictory speech that included shots at republicans for opposing obama care. >> we've learned not to make wild promises about how perfectly smooth it's going to be at all times. do not let the initial problems with the website discourage you. we're going to keep on working to fix whatever problems come up. whatever comes up, we're going to fix them. we're not repealing it as long as i'm president. >> those statements come after announcing just yesterday and again today that the administration had met their own self-imposed deadline of november 30th to have the website problems fixed. fox news chief white house correspondent ed henry is at the white house tonight with our report. the bottom line is this law is working and will work into

obama. the income gap, four times faster has expanded four times faster than it did under president george bush. under president obama, 6.7 americans in the millions have fallen into poverty. the same one that had the audacity to stand before the cameras and speak as though he had absolutely been uninvolvee and policies for the past five years. it's an extraordinary thought. the number of workers receiving disability benefits under his administration over the course of the past five years has risen by 20% to almost 9 million people. 9 million people under president obama. under president obama, 21.6 americans are underemployed or unemployed and giving up looking for work. under president obama, the average duration has nearly doubled to more than 36 weeks and today, president obama joined the nearly 70% of voters who say that the united states is now headed in the wrong direction. so often it seems that you can't make this stuff up. joining us now is a fox news contributor, monica crowley an

obama care! heard the one about the president who pulled us out of the greatest recession since the great depression? yep, obama care. and what about the one, you know, about the president who reduced drug sentencing disparities? obama care. stop if you have heard this one. a group of underpaid woman and the president who passed a pay equity law walk into a bar -- okay, you see where i'm going with this. short of bringing about world peace before he leaves office, the affordable care act will loom large in the president's legacy, as the singular accomplishment of his two terms. and now following the relaunch of a new and improved and fully operational healthcare.gov website, the president is not only owning it, but doubling down. and putting a bright spotlight on the obama in obama care. this week, the white house announced that it is going to be all aca, every day, from now until december 2rd, enrollment deadline for coverage on january 1st. starting with the president himself, who has been pull

that's been proven. >> president obama, nephew obama is the liar. >> he's not. by the way, they never asked him two years ago. >> three. >> three years ago from the press office. they never asked him first. this time asked hill and he gave a truthful answer. >> come on. >> one of them that he unequivocally lied about is the video about benghazi. that was a complete fabrication. they arrested a man, used the power and resoces of the government to railroad a guy. >> if you want to go to benghazi do you think it's just possible that the government couldn't tell us the whole truth because things were happening in benghazi that were -- >> purposely lied to the us. >> though there are things we shouldn't know and you would support us not knowing p it is a cia action. >> the that never justifies affirmatively lying about a video. >> we didn't lie about a video. what did he lie about? >> said this was a spontaneous -- >> he knew better. they did know better. >> how did we get to benghazi? the. >> you have a duty. you don't care about lying. you said he doesn't lie. >> u

president obama pushing income distribution. a politician appears to blame jewish people for the knockout game. and the annual christmas lights package all coming your way but first nelson mandela will be laid to rest in south africa on december 15th. president and mrs. obama will be there to pay their respects. he just wrapped up an interview with former president bill clinton who shared his memories with the late leader. >> he talked to me in that t prison cell as we grabbed the bars and looked out together about what it was like. s and i said tell me how this changed you. how did you give up 27 of the he best years of your life and come out a betterer man than when yo went in? . he said tihe realized they cou take everything from me except my mind and my heart. those things i had to give them and he decided not to give them away. he was free before he was released. >> tributes have been pouring in over the last 24 hours. >> we have lost one of the mosta influential, courageous and profoundly good human beings anu of us will s

obama -- >> can't you project mentally -- >> i'm telling you that president obama is the president. >> i want to -- no, you brought this up. >> what better -- >> the answer is yes. >> was he legitimate elected president of the united states? >> i wasn't in congress to determine that. that was determined before i got here. >> howard fineman, he won't do it. i guess he's afraid of what losing one or two votes by saying this is a duly elected president of the united states. >> if dig down to the very core, ninth level of the anti-obama movement, you find people who not only view him from another party or country, but practically from another planet. the president is fully aware of this. i remember him saying, a lot of people don't think i was born here and wasn't sure what he meant by here. that's the theology of it. there's a sort of belief at the heart of this, that obama -- that the president is somewhat not only not legitimate, not an american, but not even from here. that's an element of theology with these people at the heart -- where everything starts, goes back to birtherism and

he is undermined by a lack of close coordination with obama, and lacks trust of obama. he was not the first choice for secretary of state. on israel palestine, i am a skeptic. i do not think it moves. he is wasting time on a priority that is america's. i do not know why he is doing it. i have spoken with former secretaries. we do not know why he is doing it. i think that if i were advising kerry on what to do, pick a couple of countries that need u.s. engagement. go to south korea, japan. those are allies. the fact that the relationship is broken is a problem for the americans. >> the top western backed rebel in syria is forced to flee. every day there is another story about what is happening to the moderate rebels, and the growth of the islam is taking over the opposition to assad. then you seeing ryan crocker saying maybe we should reengage with assad himself. >> counterterrorism and the rest. we are engaging. first of all, some of the rebels, some of the moderates are earning to extremist because you kill over 100,000 people in a war, and you have millions of refugee

as it relates to obama care. just when you thought the website was up and running and things were looking good for obama care, we get a new bombshell report yesterday that it turns out that one in ten applications that are being filed through the website, are not going through. in fact, if you thought you signed four obama care, you might not find out you didn't sign up until after the deadline passes when you think you're covered? >> one in ten sounds bad but it's an improvement. check out the full screen we have here just last month and during october when it was rolled out, one in four had these errors. we're talking about the 834 forms that go from healthcare.gov and they get fired over to the insurance companies and there's a problem with these transmissions where sometimes the information is jarbled and all mucked up. sometimes there are duplicate applications filed and sometimes they're not there at all. people are discovering hey, i signed up, i waited in line, i was on the website going through this mess

you have the obama version. i have the hannity version. >> you have big government. >> you have people who believe in the free market and the private sector. when republicans argue for purchasing insurance across state lines they are not being heard because big government advocates -- >> take us out. >> one of the favorite mistruths if we are not saying lie, of progressives is there are no alternatives to obamacare. obamacare is terrible. they will admit that much. but no obamacare supporter will confess that there are alternative plans that have been introduced in congress. we should be talking about those plans. talk about coming together. we're ready. >> i'm ready. >> you're not ready. what would you talk about? this is about scandals, lies, conspiracies and crazy stuff. >> on a serious note it's a tough year when the kids are lied to about keeping the plan and doctor. when our government spies on us when we are not aware of it. this is the united states of america. we have constitutional rights to privacy. w

and do anything to distract anybody from obama care. >> obama care. so we're distracting from obama care. this is not news. this is a distraction. i mean, this man sets the tone for the republican party and has the unmitigated gall to say that. >> it's unreal, but what on earth does he think the distraction was? was it the gathering of world leaders, that a historic figure over the last hundred years. mandela is one of the rarest of creatures you can say he was a legend. he was a living legend who set a completely different track not just for his country but for the world's leaders. how can that be a distraction? it is -- i don't know who he's trying to fool other than his own audience, of course. but the worrying thing is he is given credence by the party's nominal leaders. and then following his lead on this. this is not the first time people have said such and such a news event is a distraction from obama care. i think republicans have to symbolically break from rush limbaugh and say mandela's funeral was a legitimate world event. >> goldie, that's

presidents, president obama, george w. bush, clinton, and carter. all of this demonstrating a wide, wide impact of this man. he will then lay in state for three days and then be buried in his home village several hours from here. apparently in the final hours of nelson mandela he was off his life support and not breathing too well and according to one witness who was there, they said, well, he just finally gave up. well, greg, as we all know, he fought so many battles and he won so many of those through his life. back to you. >> well said, greg palkot in johannesburg. greg, thanks. >>> we're continuing to track a very powerful storm moving eastward here in the u.s. the weather radar looking brutal. snow, sleet, freezing rain up and down the east coast now. we're tracking this storm and we will have what you need to know, so stand by.

lo que estaba equivocadamente el presidente obama para raÚl castro. como les dije es incorrecto durante la cumbre del milenio en nueva york con el entonces presidente bill clinton y le estrellÓ la mano a fidel castro. por cierto el presidente obama protagonizÓ otro incidente durante el incidente de mandela resulta que durante gran parte del evento estuvo compartiendo con la primera ministra de dinamarca y con el primer ministro britÁnico, segÚn los observadores sobre todo con la mandataria danesa que sintiÓ celos y que estaba con cara de pocos amigos, imÁgenes se ve muy divertido con la guapa mandataria danesa mientras tanto aparenta no aparentemente estar contenta. >> quizÁs solamente estaba prestando atenciÓn al solemne servicio fÚnebre. >> yo te voy a decir una cosa. >> yo creo que el vuelo de 14 horas de johannesburgo habrÁ una conversaciÓn muy interesante un fre michelle obama y barack obama y no tendrÁ que ver con mandela. >> los residentes a lo largo de la costa oeste se despertaron en medio de una gran nevada, los trabajadores de l
