obamacare surchargesre going coast to coast, folks. some liberals bashing the companies saying it is a political stunt. the owners are saying they immediate to pay for their added cost somehow. who is right? >> stunt? like restaurants want to piss off their customers? no. in a free market they can lower prices. they want to attract customers. of course, obama is nothing to do with the free market. that's why two-thirds of small businesses are reporting that their costs already are going to go up under obamacare. one of the restaants profiled, 500 employees. it is going to cost them another half million dollars, not to mention a full-time staffer just to employ -- just to comply with obamacare's regulations. half million dollar, that could haveeen a new restaurant. how many numbers have dropped? harry reid is talking about horror stories being untrue. senator, open the paper and stop evading reality. obamacare is pshing up costs for everyone. >> the point is that's no just restaurants. restaurants are the first to do it. maybe because o

you can't sign up for obamacare. you sign up for an anthem policy or well privacy it's private insurance. private companies have been doing. >> that will come as news to millions of our constituents. millions of americans facing higher premiums, cancelled plans and the loss of doctors and hospitals they liked as a result of this law. >> obama care is definitely tree middle class families that we represent. >> how to run, how to talk about it. it's interesting dynamic. >> it. >> not that he suspect for election is he. >> no it's t. it was interesting to hear him characterize it that way. seeing bipartisan consensus. have you had charles saying for weeks no such thing as obamacare. the law that was passed years ago no longer exists. it's a shadow of its formerself. the law itself doesn't exist. angus king making a different point and trying to say this isn't nothing to do with the government at all these are the insurance companies who have made these decisions, he suggests, on their own. in providing the policy. they

should they just say obamacare and everybody will vote for republicans because they hate obamacare. or should they come up with their own health care plan to replace obamacare if they were to succeed in getting rid of it and more importantly, do they have a good jobs agenda that can appeal to people's economic anxieties where a country where unemployment is still very high and it's only what it is because millions have actually abandoned looking for work. the unemployment rate would be even higher if they were looking for work. so republicans feel they have to actually offer something positive, not just criticize the president and obamacare. >> interesting times. got to say. byron york, always very interesting to speak with you. thanks for coming in on a sunday. >> thank you. >>> as president obama continues to tout raising the minimum wage, many americans say their biggest worry is just finding a job. we'll look at the impact unemployment is having right after the break. for hearburn? yea. try alka seltzer fruit chews. they work fast on heart burn and taste awesome. these are good.

. >>> plus obamacare sign-up deadline is just hours away. critics day the figures aren't all they're cracked up to be. >>> let's not be fooled here. it is broken, and people say, can you fix it? i've looked at it ten different ways, chris. this is not fixable. when you have diabetes like i do, you want a way to help minimize blood sugar spikes. support heart health. and your immune system. now there's new glucerna advance with three benefits in one.

this is not what the democrats and others who voted for obamacare promised. a i was promised we could keep our health insurance wouldn't leave our doctor or hospital and promised average family would see a savings of 2500 a year. >> when harry reid calls people like you who make these claims liars the person lying clearly was the president. what do you think about that? >> i am deeply offended harry reid is calling me and my family a liar. we have suffered damages. we have had our healthcare insurance ripped away from us as have 5 million other americans. we been lied to and we have been damaged. we have been financially damaged it. he's trying to pass the blame to the coke brothers. i have never even met them. >> what do you think of this? >> this is only part of the problem. ed o the other part is you have employers dropping their health insurance plan because it is cheaper to dump them into the obamacare plan. now as you know just a few weeks ago you had the congressional budget office say this law was going to lead to the destruction of 2 to 3 million job

obamacare was the deciding factor. no question and it scared the pants off of democrats favor hoping to run on this through november and they discover they better come up with the message because this one does not work. lou: speaker boehner was asked if they've relying too much on the debacle we're focused on jobs in the country don't underestimate the effect obamacare is having. he was pretty straightforward. >> be realistic. the jobs the economy directly affected by obamacare. people who had full-time jobs things to obamacare now have part-time jobs some don't have a job at all and that big lie that was told of $25 less, and families are getting sticker shock. but it was to ensure all the uninsured under 4.2 million 75% had insurance before but they were dropped because of obamacare. all love these people of -- 75 percent are actually only previously uninsured so from every standpoint it is a failure and especially around the necks of democrats. lou: more to come. we appreciate you being here. be sure to tune into hu

basically, that is a disincentive to work built into obamacare. it gives subsidies and certain tax credits to people that don't earn that much and they'll have to pay more for their health care. why work? and again, that encourages this whole culture of entitlement, depending on the government. >> but surely, some employers are going to start firing workers all together or placing the full time to part time. >> absolutely. because if you have 50 full time worker, you have to provide health insurance. if you have 53 worker, aren't you going to fire four just to get under that you know, to get under that, that base. and we've also seen that people are starting to do this. they're making full time workers into part time workers. investors business daily say that 500 companies so far are already terminating or putting to part time. >> president obama said the health care plan is with lower the health care costs. it turns out, obamacare is saddled with all kinds of new taxes and mandates and regulations that will increase the cost for families and empl

obamacare is not affordable. the president specifically said, few can't afford it, you are not mandated to buy it. >> so this was a new exemption. all right, the first resell shun, if you got canceled, you could renew it. you had to renew it by a year, then that became a couple, three years. then that became permanent. as far as i know, permanent. now you are saying correctly to my knowledge, this hardship exemption, which i guess is done in a cross basis, it's got 13 other exemptions, plus the one you were talking about, the 14th, which seems to cover everything imaginable. i don't understand, why is he doing this? because he must know or his advisers must know. they're destroying this center of obamacare, which is the individual mandate. >> right. i think the administration will claim early in april that they will have enrolled 6 million people. that's where they're headed. only about 5 million of those will pay for it based on the carriers of who is paying, who isn't. based on those numbers, only about 25% of

obamacare. obamacare. why some here say that's another ...return on investment wall isn't a street... isn't the only return i'm looking forward to... for some, every dollar is earned with sweat, sacrifice, courage. which is why usaa is honored to help our members with everything from investing for retirement to saving for college. our commitment to current and former military members and their families is without equal. >>> okay. here is the question that will decide if obamacare is a success. how many uninsured are buying it? after all, it was meant for them. a new study says it's 27%, but the white house says it has no idea. that's really hard to believe. >> right. and knowing the fact that president obama lied for years about obamacare. look, here's the deal. what they don't want us to know about is the fact that less healthy people are signing up than they said would sign up, which is going to raise the cost pool of obamacare and raise the cost to taxpayers. they were counting on them to low

and, straight ahead, "on the record" investigates obamacare four years later. the delays, the changes, new extension and the outrage. a closer look at the healthcare chaos as it happens. plus karl rove is here to talk about it that's next. also former secretary of state condoleezza rice breaks her silence and delivers powerful blow to president obama. you have to hear this coming up. predicting the future is a pretty difficult thing to do. but, manufacturing in the united states means advanced technology. we learned that technology allows us to be craft oriented. no one's losing their job. there's no beer robot that has suddenly chased them out. the technology is actually creating new jobs. siemens designed and built the right tools and resources to get the job done. >> on this voted the yeas are 219. the nays nays are 212. without objection the motion to reconsider is laid on the table. >> the affordable care act is now four years old. >> today, after all the votes have been tallied health insurance reform becomes law in the united states of america. >> the si

just not obamacare. an house had passed amendment to the resolution that would strip obamacare in the funding bill. a monster named harry reid is stripped the amendment from of is how theich democrats were able to lie successfully about ted cruz and the tea party. ted cruz conducted a one-man filibuster. cave in ofarded as a most of his republican colleagues who voted to join the resolution with obamacare as part of it. the republicans attack each other instead of the real culprits. you might ask yourself this question -- what would've happened if the republican part and tea party and the koch brothers had funded a campaign to put the blame on reid and obama where it belonged? it was no such campaign. all of the parties failed to take the fight to the enemy camp. example ofanother the firing squad that we on the right are so good at and continually sets us back. thatond important point applies to all of the friction between tea party and republican. the conflict within the right about obama shut down was

for unpaid medical bills because obamacare gives patients who are not paying their premiums for obamacare of 90 degrees period before the plan is cancelled. insurers would pay claims for just the first month of that 90 days period good doctors are stuck with the bill over the next 60 of 90 days. did the policy still calls it a winner for democrats but don't call its obamacare even if president obama uses the word. here is the house minority leader today who dared to use the word obamacare. >> it is called the affordable care act. i know you did not need any complement or derogatory it is called the affordable care act. >> even the president says that. >> i tell him the same thing [laughter] it is affordable care acta there is a reason. affordable. lou: you cannot save much when the minority leader can tell the president what he can say and author and columnist fox news contributor with nationally syndicated talk show host, i have to start with the speaker she started that weird cackle trying to take down the impact correcting the president of the united states on his own signature lot? th

lou: obamacare, if we can show the poll, 56 percent oppose obamacare and 40% approve? i have never seen a program quite like this but that is a remarkable disapproval of the government what and program. >> it is stunning quite frankly. that mirrors the president's numbers because he is deeply attached is signature accomplishment and is on popular as he is in the current lou: congressman ryan has made headlines over immigration reform is not if but when but to say it is part of the problem curbing economic growth. what is your thoughts on that claim? >> we have had this conversation before. i am the big believer the great program to help with policy we should think hard to the international competitiveness but i would be hard place to put that current loss up as what troubles economic growth but tax laws, regulatory expansion, certainly i am worried about the massive spending not extend the debt we drive up. there is some things i play in front of the immigration and that we should grow more rapidly. lou: the council of economic advisers saying he believes the chief pro

that race was all about obamacare. the democrat refused to push back on obamacare. she said they need to fix it, and the republicans say we need to repeal it. so if this isn't a good referendum of what every single republican should do in 2014 elections, you need to use that, take it as a file, read it and go ahead and do it. think about this. that man is 41 years old. he's recently divorced, parading around central florida with a 26-year-old girlfriend, he's wearing a pinstriped suit. he's not exactly the kind of republican you want to go, i love that guy. i want to get behind that guy. yet he won and he won with a libertarian taking 5% of the vote away from him. >> that description. that description, bob might actually like him, i would imagine. kimberly, let me ask you, after last night, do you think that the republicans were a little bit, maybe, getting too confident about what 2014 could look like, or do they have reason to feel good about themselves? >> they could use a self-esteem boost. i hope this provided it. i think it is a significant victory, especially

other issues -- rl>> 27 times we have changed obamacare. is that an emergency? >> in 2008 saying he opposed these executive orders he wanted a government by and for the people and wanted a transparent process. why did we have a revolution and get rid of king george if we have president obama just signing off. >> you are crossing the politics with the president. you are right politically it is a retreat. when you get to the legalities of it, so far he really hasn't come close t constitutional crisis. i am not saying it wasncouldn't happen. >> i disagree. it is disgraceful the president of the united states is giving speeches saying if congress won't do this through the democratic process i am going to do it. >> i am president i can do whatever i want. >> i see tea party individuals and other political events people are tired of the run away government we are under. nsa spying on us irs intimidating people. america is tired of this. >> what about republicans monica crowley they have the power first they don't seem willing to take the president on for example he is

by 2015, obamacare, hey, projected to cover over 13 million americans. by 2016, the number could be roughly 22 million americans. now, would that be considered a good start? the nonprofit rand corporation has a study that shows 9.5 million people have gained health insurance from obamacare. this number includes medicaid enrollment, which not every state has taken. other estimates reveal that 13 million people gained health care. if you factor in the young people under 26, staying on their parents' policy. now the affordable care act has created -- no question about it -- the largest expansion of coverage in health care in this country in a half century. go back to the days of lyndon johnson and medicare. as america gets healthier the cost of health care will come down, we'll have better outcomes. meanwhile, all of obamacare's recent success has republicans just scrambling on defense. canadian senator ted cruz of texas say the number of people without health insurance is going up. >> what we know right now, is as a result of obamacare, millions of people

funds. >> obamacare is we don't care. that's what obamacare is. >> in fact, a recent analysis by a consulting firl said seniors would pay an average $904 a year in benefit reductions and increased premiums. nearly 200 house members sent a letter to the administration urging it be canceled. what effect could it have in the november midterms? >> we know what happened today portends what happened in november. we're in a good position. certainly we'll hold the house, and also we begin to look at taking the senate for real. >> no question, the republican leadership is over the moon about what happened here. >> democrats are going to be panicked if they're in a seat like this and there are a lot of them in those seats because voters want a check and balance in washington. they know there's too much government in their health care and their lives. >> but republicans could take a lesson. democrat came close in a message to amend, not end obamacare. they need to offer more than just no. >> they need to replace it. there are some g

let's play a little piece of how they made the turn to obamacare. the president said he agreed to do the funny or die interview to create awareness among young people of obamacare. >> have you heard of the affordable care act? >> oh, yeah, i heard about it. that's the thing that doesn't work. why would you get the guy who created the zoon to make your website? >> health cacare.gov works grea now. the law means insurers can't discriminate genls you if you have a pre-existing condition anymore. >> what about this, though? >> that's disgusting. how long have you had that? >> just four months. >> really? >> spider bites. i got attacked by spiders. >> zach, you need to get that checked right away. >> just moments ago, the administration released the latest obamacare enrollment numbers. 4.2 million since october 1st. only one quarter are young enrollees, and they still won't tell us they need more of those, by the way, and they won't tell us how many have paid. so is this about making president obama look good and cool and young and hip, or about enrollin

and knowing the fact that president obama lied for years about obamacare. look, here's the deal. what they don't want us to know about is the fact that less healthy people are signing up than they said would sign up, which is going to raise the cost pool of obamacare and raise the cost to taxpayers. they were counting on them to lower the overall cost and that's not happening. >> now, they don't even ask when people sign up for obamacare, they're not even asking if you were insured before. >> it is complicated, that's for sure. there are younger people signing up. the health insurance companies who people are buying these policies from have been reporting on their earnings that the number of people signing up are younger than they thought they would be. so that's a good sign. the government just said last week that 9 million people are eligible for medicaid. that's despite the fact that a lot of the red states decided -- >> it's not what it's about. it's about private insurance. for this thing to work, they're going to have to have 40% of the new ones be young and healthy. >> get

i mean, i think it is possible that obamacare could well implode. we'll know that when the final numbers are in. but bottom line, all the evidence we have today supports the notion that the plan is simply not working, gregg. >> doug schoen, melissa, thank you for sticking around and give us your reactions to sarah palin and tackling the obamacare latest data that just came out. thanks so much. >> thank you. >>> russia is increasing its military strength in the ukraine and warning that the united states -- warning the united states that any sanctions will boomerang. that's their word -- right back to our country. so we're going to tackle that coming up. stay with us honestly? i wanted a smartphone that shoots great video. so i got the new nokia lumia icon. it's got 1080p video, three times zoom, and a twenty-megapixel sensor. it's got the brightest display, so i can see what i'm shooting -- even outdoors, and 4 mics that capture incredible sound. plus, it has apps like vine -- and free cloud storage. my new lumia icon is so great, even our wipeouts l

the republican playbook of repeal obamacare, repeal obamacare, gets tougher and more and more people get health care. >> i totally agree. if republicans simplily, i look at lot of polling, private polling good polling i think if republicans say simply get rid of it and let democrats have keep it and fix it position even then it is 50/50. i think democrats neutralize the issue. republicans say repeal and replace, you can't throw people out. we'll give you tax credits and take care of preexisting conditions as part of the repeal. polling shows that becomes very, very popular. jenna: south carolina republican senator lindsey graham with his thoughts on this. nice to have you in the studio. >> glad to be with you. jenna: where do you fall on sides of repeal it or replace it debate? >> i think we need to repeal it and replace it. i fall into the camp of doing both. i think it is good for the republican party to have a plan of its own to insure americans without losing your doctor and bankrupting the country. i think it is possible to reform health care without destroying the economy and w

these were the people who got obamacare passed. i'm sorry if there there's anyone in america who should be punished with obamacare, it's these guys. they're the ones who threw the money in support of it. >> quick round on this one. take a look first at the new health care law. only 38% of the people favor the health care law. now throw up the other screen. is this coincidental. president obama's approval rating at the exact same 38%. can we tag his legacy to obamacare. >> i think it's an interesting parallel, don't you? this basically -- he has a 33% core constituency, no matter what he does, they're going to be like, that's our guy. no, no, he's misunderstood. >> people might like to see the white house in hawaii. >> your thoughts? >> it's an interesting thing. if you're into knew her ricks and all that kind of stuff because he has changed the law 38 times. did you think about that? seriously. it was a law. here's a man that's issuing proclamations like a -- >> em importanter. >> exactly. the law that was passed by the congress, s

. >>> plus obamacare turns four. nancy pelosi says democrats should be celebrating instead of panicking. >> i believe it's a winner. >> rand paul tells young americans president obama's reward for their votes is to track their phone calls and emails. >> i oppose this abuse of power with every ounce of energy i have. >> but he says republicans won't win back the white house unless they learn from dominos. >> bad crust. we need a different kind of party. >> "inside politics," the biggest stories sourced by the best reporters now. >>> welcome to "inside politics". i'm john king. thanks for sharing your kund morning with us to share their reporting and insights. another high-profile week for hillary clinton including a few gentle steps away from president obama but to me even more interesting the decision was by some close clinton friends and other senior democrats to go public with their reservations about a hilary 2016 campaign. listen to what tom daschle told the "wall street journal". there's a fatigue and physical d

that's what obamacare is. >> obamacare is really, i think, the worst thing that has happened in this nation since slavery and it is in a way -- it is slavery. >> it allows the federal government to have all of your medical records. they'll know all of your deepest secrets. >> let's repeal this failure before it literally kills women, kills children, kills senior citizens. >> she's literally got to be kidding. but do republicans want to go back to the old system where women were charged more than men? where people with pre-existing conditions couldn't get insurance? where insurance companies could cut you off once you got sick? is that the republican plan to go back to the way things were? no way! it's time to move forward. joining me now are congressman emmanuel cleaver, democrat of missouri, and former montana governor brian schweitzer, also an msnbc contributor. thank you both for being here. >> good to be with you, reverend. >> great to be back. >> congressman, is that what republicans want? to go back to the old health care system? >> obviously that is what they want or they don'

if you missed the interview with angela strobel, the woman who was accused of being a liar for her obamacare horror go to facebook.com/thekellyfile. this is "the kelly file." >>> and welcome to this special edition of "hannity" tonight. for the full hour we'll be joined by a lively studio audience, they're here to analyze what we call the obama effect, how this country's policies have brought the country to a tipping point. now, we begin with professor jonathan turley who said it best on his comments. >> the president has exceeded his authority in a way that is creating a destabilizing influence. the rate at which the executive power is being concentrated in our system is accelerating. and frankly i am very alarmed by the implications of that aggregation of power. i believe we're at a constitutional tipping point in our system. it is a dangerous point for our system to be in. and i believe your response has to begin before this president leaves office. no one in our system goes it alone. >> all right, there you have it. so how exactly has president obama overstepped his authority and created

coming up, we'll explain how obamacare brought america's obamacare brought america's tipping point to ladies iyou have over active bladder, imagine not being near this so often. imagine not getting out of bed again and again. and imagine finally taking control of your symptoms with the oxytrol for women patch. now fda approved as otc. it's safe and effective when used directed. and it reduces frequency, urgency, and accidents. if you have questions, call 1-888-oxytrol for a one on one discussion with anowledgeable woman to learn more. take control with oxytrol for women. >>> and welcome back to this special studio audience of "hannity," now, the obamacare has proven to be nothing but a failure, from the endless website problems, doctor shortages, millions of cancelled health care plans all over the country. i think it is safe to say that obamacare has brought the american health care system to a tipping point. >> after all the votes have been added, health care reform becomes law in america. >> it is healthcare.gov, the website is designed to be pretty consumer friendly. >> i keep get

it's not some little blip in obamacare. obamacare is a further hepp episode of government meddleing. but the real reason people are not in the middle class is by and large. >> i totally disagree with you. >> that is one factor. so are all the other factors. i don't know why you would criticize the president and others for raising such an important issue because it is an important issue. it relates to health care. >> quickly. i'll finish quickly. improving access to health insurance for as many americans as possible is one way to solve this problem. one way. >> all right. i was going to interrupt. >> i agree with you there. >> but charles payne, here's the point. the issue is health care itself which started as being a great fad to unions and all those arguing for it. the more it's reality. now the more reality is hitting back, the more they're saying this isn't what we want. >> and now that, chickens are him quoing on thef radio, it's not great. >> it's extraordinarily expensive. everybody knew. there were promises made or

and therefore i think obamacare is dead. >> i think obamacare is a house of cards that is collapsing as it is being built. the trouble is that as it is being built and as it is collapsing at the same time, it's injuring people and it's having an adverse impact on the economy and you cannot get straight answers from this administration which is why you need a special inspector general that has the breadth and capacity to go from one department to the other department to put all of the pieces together to find out what is what. >> all right. election year stuff, politico is out tonight. g.o.p. health plan could be rchl ode to nowhere and they are saying that the republicans can't get it together. they are not even going to have a vote in the house. yes, mr. mccarthy is trying to develop something. eric cantor is responsible but it's not happening and therefore, it won't be a force in this election. what say you? >> i think that there's going to be an alternative health care element debated during the debate on obamacare dave camp offered the substitute that got shun away. so, look, we h

. >>> plus, time is running out on obamacare. looks like 7 million enrollees goal is going up in smoke. that might explain why they're spending millions, millions of our tax dollars on ads featuring basketball stars, girls twerking and jerking and dare i say, even elmo. >>> then a black hole and supernatural forces, are some in the media going overboard over the malaysian airline mystery? "cashin' in" starts right now. >> hi, everyone. i'm eric bolling. welcome, everybody. two world leaders, two sets of priorities that may be shifting our super power status. as putin riles up russia this week, here's what our president was doing, announcing sanctions on a handful of russians, doing basketball brackets, going on espn radio, hanging out with ellen degeneres and planning his upcoming vacation. michelle, are things like this turning us from a super power into a super joke? >> president obama is filling out his march madness bracket while putin is basically reun e reuniting the soviet union. it's amateur hour in washington. putin corr

obamacare is the law of the land. it's never going to be changed. >> wait a minute. >> you can change it at the edges, said the democrat whose party change it had how many times, 27, 37 times? >> but the time you get to 2017 when a new republican president, by the time they can move a bill, there will be millions and millions of people involved in this obamacare. >> only president obama can change it. >> it's a done deal. you lost. you might as we'll get used to it. >> you can do something about it. >> it's not a done deal yet. it is the law. it can be repealed -- >> after 20 million people are on it. >> however, you know what's not a done deal, the cost. the cost of obamacare is going to skyrocket. keep talking obamacare, bob, because you're going to lose 2014, and you're going to lose 2016. as long as obamacare is around you'll lose. >> you'll never change obamacare. >> the employer mandate, that tidal wave, you will not be able to escape it. >> you're not going to change obamacare. >> no delay will save you. >> pre

the white house announcing a delay on obamacare. the open will not leave extended past march 31 and this is the 37th major delay of the unilateral administrative action. each of those actions and delays represent a significant change in the law passed by congress and signed by the president in 2010. the obama administration have promised repeatedly since the previous delay that on february february 10 that there would be no more delays. it was only two weeks ago that the centers for medicare and medicaid services declared that they did not have the authority to order such an extension and then secretary kathleen sibelius testified before two separate committees that the march 31 deadline would not be changed. listen to these outright declarations that are as of today no longer operative. >> we have no plans to extend the open woman. it ends on march 31. in fact, we don't actually have the statutory authority to extend the enrollment time in 2014. >> are you going to delay the open woman beyond march 31? >> moment will not be delayed

and the republicans are making a lot of noises about obamacare, but obamacare, it seems, if this president is largely irrelevant doesn't carry quite the scathing indictment of the democratic party that it might otherwise if he were more irrelevant, and frankly, more engaged. >> well, in a way you say he's not on the ballot, and his name is not going to be on the ballot, but he's on the ballot. every policy that he's pushed, whether it's obamacare, whether it's a radicalization of american culture, and i think what this chief counsel to the vatican said, you alluded to it in the introduction, is exactly right. this is an administration that has not become indifferent to religion, it's become hostile. when this administration always sides with the most secularist voices popular to tell military chaplains put your bibles away and hide them. don't say anything about god or jesus because somebody might not understand it. you can't keep doing that kind of thing and have any credibility left as a president who is in touch with what i call the roots of america. >> and strongly and powerfully the r
