absolutely. >> laura: okay. we appreciate it. >> i imagine you would agree on that as well, laura. >> laura: believe me, i don't even want to go there thank you very much. plenty more ahead as the factor moves along this evening. coming up, a democratic senator wants to shut down fox news. that's an original concept. and republicans are pushing the to cut the funding for npr. and then far left billionaire george soros may look elsewhere if president obama doesn't shape up. we're going to tell you what he is up to. all coming up. stay tuned. >> laura: in the impact segment tonight, after the far left took a beating from american voters a few weeks ago, it looks as if they might try to get a little revenge on their critics. here is what the reverend al sharpton is saying. >> the fcc must step in and deal with standards on how to give station clearances to people that just want to race bait. this is not about opinions. it's not about what you or i say or our college speeches or churches. this is on federally regula

>> laura: thanks for staying with us, i'm laura ingraham in for bill o'reilly. in the personal story segment tonight, this week in washington a group of very wealthy, very powerful far left activists got together for a top secret strategy meeting and they didn't invite me. according to reports uber liberal billionaire george soros made it very clear he is not happy about the shellacking that democrats took at the polls a few weeks ago. so despite the results, mr. soros, however, remains defiant and he says: >> laura: so what's next move for disgruntled liberals in america? joining us from new york is former bush secretary ari fleischer and with us in washington is joe trippi, fox news contributor and former campaign manager for howard dean. gentlemen, great to see you. you know, speaking for the far left today i guess is you, joe trippi. what's going on with soros? he put a lot of money into this election. he is obviously supporting a lot of groups that are helping democrats and they got a pretty big blow out in the house of representatives, at least. do you thi

certainly isn't on her own. >> laura has 24 hour care. someone has to run the nursing home essentially and dealing with medicaid. that is very complicated. >> get back to the medicaid. you talked about this. i love the fact that you are very open in your book. you say people look at -- for those of you under 50 stay with us for a second. l.a. law was a great hit. you could not put anything up against that in the time slot it was on. and you played stewart and ann, the married lawyers and it was hot. you were the hot couple on this team. and everybody assumes they had such a hit they must be rich and this money must be making tons of interest and they can pay and do whatever they need for their mother. >> that show was over in 1994. that's the truth of it. >> we did make a lot of money on the show and that was great. and we did have enough money earning interest that we could do this brilliant retirement dream of italy and new york and working the theater in new york and make a little money there. we had just enough money to do that and th

welcome back. >> thank you, laura and brent. we do have an accident to report unfortunately for folks along the east shore freeway. westbound 80 at central avenue around that merge, reports of a single car accident went into the center divide. also someone who saw that said the car is smoking. there may be a car fire in the near future so we're watching as crews arrive. the rest of the maze looking pretty good. as far as the travel time goes past that scene, top of your screen, 19-minute drive off of the carquinez bridge. 580 no problem through oakland. 880 starts to slow because of the volume and the volume at the toll plaza itself, the bay bridge shows you no major backup, but the metering lights turning on in 20 to 25 minutes and we'll watch as this builds coming off of 580 and 80. back to you guys. >>> new this morning, the search is on for the person who shot and killed a 21-year-old man outside of a convenience store in antioch. we have new video from just a short time ago as police collected evidence at the scene. the sho

good morning. >> good morning, brent and laura. pretty outstanding forecast as we look at chilly temperatures this morning. still need the jacket as you head outside but for the afternoon it is t-shirt weather all around the bay area. look at the temperatures approaching the low 70s around parade time. and around san jose today, a high close to 80. some low 80s inland before a late-day sea breeze cools us down. we'll talk about cooler changes ahead and rain in your seven-day forecast coming up in a few minutes. >>> the push to legalize marijuana in california is up in smoke, at least for now. voters shot down prop 19. "today in the bay's" christie smith is live in oakland. although the voters have spoken this time, the fight is not over yet. >> reporter: yeah, good morning to you. despite the defeat at the polls last night, supporters of prop 19 are really seeing the silver lining in this, that it was actually taken quite seriously by the voters overall. here with me this morning is dan rush with yes on 19. good morning. what happe

laura and i will be out and about. mike is not but he is going to be giving. >> we give every year and those barrels are not just there on saturday. if you can't get there saturday, make sure you get your food out there however you can because those barrels are out there even right now at this time of the morning. so let's get out to the roadways. this time of the morning also just before 6:00, right on schedule for your highway 4 slowing westbound coming through antioch. actually a little earlier for that slowdown to show up through pittsburg and bay point, so that's a little different flow for that portion of highway 4. right here 580 shows a typical pattern as well, westbound 15-minute drive slowing out of the altamont pass. a little blip around highway 84 in the heart of livermore. let me show you 880 before the south bay forecast. right here we're showing you the volume increasing northbound past high street. a nice, easy drive as far as the speeds go but look at that volume of traffic filling in all these lanes.

i'm laura garcia-cannon. >> and i'm brent cannon. we want to get you started with a look at the forecast with rob. some folks saw some rain overnight. >> yeah, a pretty good rain that fell right around midnight for most of the south bay but most of the action is heading off to the east. in terms of our temperatures today, it's still jacket weather. we're going to get clearing skies but highs still in the 50s to low 60s. in terms of the showers right now, let's give you a quick check of the radar. you can see most of the action winding down but the roadway still wet from that overnight rain. mike will fill us in on how that's impacting our morning commute coming up. >> we'll check in with him because there's a new accident. >> a new accident highway 37, the westbound commute direction off of interstate 80 right at fairgrounds drive. not a whole lot of information. if you're heading from vallejo over towards novato, keep that in mind. east shore freeway moves smoothly all the way down to the berkeley curve. we see 24 with the only bit

. >> reporter: laura, it took the jury 3 1/2 days to reach a conclusion. at 11:45 this morning, the judge received a note from the foreperson that they had all reached the same conclusion. judge gerald fisher then asked the jury foeperson to stand. you could feel the tension in the courtroom as she was asked for the verdict. guandique looked up from the table where he was sitting. whatever the decision, he would hear it in spanish through the headphones he was wearing. guilty, the foreperson said to the count of first-degree felony murder/kidnapping. judge gerald fisher then asked what the jury decided for the count of first-degree murder of attempted robbery. guilty, she said. with tears in her eyes, susan levy glared at guandique look for his reaction. two jurors wiped away tears as the judge thanked them for their service. late this afternoon, u.s. attorney ron machin, the police chief cathy lanier and the team that investigated and prosecuted guandique made a statement in front of the courthouse. >> our hearts go out to the levy family, which has shown

host: next call for laura classon. check, democrat, hi. caller: good morning, good morning laura. guest: good morning. caller: people really don't know where to go and how to start a small business. it's like yesterday, today small businesses for your christmas shops after black friday. a lot of people don't know, do you keep working for the rich? the rich gain 25% of the stock or markets. people ask for the stock market. people still not working with all the tax breaks that obama has set aside. my question is, how can people go to the website they need and get the help they need to start a small business? guest: you know, i'm going to guess the small business administration is a good place to start. i don't know what the website is. it's a government agency dedicated to helping small businesses. host: glen in north carolina. caller: yes, two wards, oligarchy and racism. the other one is what is too much rich? thank you so much. guest: as far as racism, for some people who are opposing president obama a definite edge of racism. but of a little bit of extra discomfort they wouldn't

even barbara bush, and laura bush. laura bush brought us back into unesco without so much as a controversy. this is something i struggled with when i was at the u.n. laura bush just packed up and took her reading program to paris and the state department backed off and we solved a problem we had been generating for 20 years. we need someone who's from a working-class background, who has the kind of education -- and ironically, the economists that i've read from princeton are quite different from the economists from the university of chicago and harvard. and so we really need a national dialogue across generational lines, across class lines and we need to kind of figure out how to make democracy and free enterprise work for the poor as it works for the upper class. tavis: let me ask you to that point. let me offer this, if i can, mr. ambassador. given what you just said now about the poor and the working class. i want to know whether or not you think what we saw happen on this past election day was more about americans

let me talk about laura. thank you for going. i remember you did go with her. i felt that was symbolic of her, how she viewed our relationship. how she viewed our time in washington. she could have been a person who said i didn't do this. i can't believe you threw me in this pot. >> you said you'd never give political speech when you married her. >> i reneged. she seized the moment. the trip on breast cancer aware nose the mast still resonates. i was there in the post presidency. people are still talking about the fact that first lady laura bush came and represented women throughout the middle east in saying to government and society it's okay for women to talk about breast cancer. not only okay, it is important and necessary. you know, my wife, laura was awesome as a first lady. she was great comfort to her. occasionally tried to soothe my rough edges and she seized the opportunity. she made a difference in the lives of a lot of people. >> greta: you weren't there, we were but there was one instant we'll look at this shot where we were sitting around the world

[laughter] she was, obviously, tired of met drinking.wi and as te the radder will --ing reader will learn, i becameing tired of me drinking as well. the book is very anecdotal, and it was really recreating therien anecdotes. turns out the president has got a lot of historical records at his disposal, so there's diaries for every minute of my life as president, there are notes of national security meetings, there are memorandum of phone calls i made, and it was interesting to recreate a lot of the decision-making process from the historical records. but, of course, nobody could -- there's no historical record of how i felt or the e emotions i felt. and i tried to do my best to give the reader a sense of thedy emotions during some of the traumatic moments. >> host: your father was elected president in 1988. as a future president, you might have had a lot of opportunity for training at that point, bute what kind of a role did you play, what observations did you make in your decide's camp

i'm brent cannon. >> and i'm laura garcia-cannon. we want to get started with a quick look at the forecast with rob. >> and the forecast this morning, well, we're still dealing with scattered showers. we're going to see winds picking up this afternoon. you're going to want to keep the jacket with you throughout the day. temperatures as we pass lunchtime, upper 50s to maybe mid-60s out there. winds 10 to 20 miles per hour. but this morning along the coast there, still seeing a little rain around half moon bay. that could be adding to issues on the roads this morning. >> there you go. make sure that folks lower the speeds just a little bit because of slick roadways and low visibility in spots. here there's an issue that you can clearly see because of all the flashing lights. southbound 880 at thornton avenue, the off-ramp heading to the eastbound direction of thornton is closed because of an earlier accident. i told you about a spinout on the clover leaf so use dakoto or stevenson. light volume going through fremont, still at the limit

what do you think, laura? >> every time i hear the phrase, intellectual curiousity, i let out a really live yawn. okay, because that's the criticism of george w. bush, that's been the criticism often waged by the elites against conservatives who win. okay? and look, lisa murkowski and sarah palin clearly don't like each other. all right? this goes back to when obviously palin defeated her father. her father passed over palin and named his daughter, lisa murkowski, to be in that important senate seat in 2002. there is bad blood. it's not surprising. i don't even think sarah palin is really surprised that she would make some of these comments in the aftermath. but it kind of looks at this point, she's probably going to win, which is amazing. so why doesn't she just enjoy her victory. kind of sticking the knife in palin, i think that doesn't really achieve much and it looks kind of low rent. >> gretchen: laura ingram, she's going to stick around after the break 'cause we'll talk about nancy pelosi's new challenge

>> reporter: laura and shawn, d.c. police are not sure what happened last night on holbrooke street. they don't think it was a robbery, and they don't think there was a connection to the school, although they cautioned that could change. what they do know is that d.c. homicide detectives are investigating another murder in the part of the city that has seen its fair share of violence. langston sharps and his brother adrian arrived with heavy hearts. the two were there to pick up the younger sister but their thoughts were on little brother joe. >> and i know i seem normal. if i was not the man and, you know, anyone would go back and retailiate. that is not me, though. >> a cool kid and had a lot of friends. i don't see why this hap had to happen to him. >> reporter: he was in the 1300 block of holbrooke street northeast at a quarter to 9 when police say that words were exchanged with as many as three other men. >> and he was wagging down hole brooke and jawing on each other like kids do, you know, and the guy thought th

a lopsided win in more than 80 years. >> laura, thanks. stanford gets the axe back, they can't celebrate for too long. nor can cal dwell on the loss, both teams have home finales next saturday. >> we knew there were going to be a lot of emotions in this game. you're not going to coral all those emotions. a win next week will be almost as good as this, better than this. the one next week will be better than this. >> next week will be a huge game for many reasons. our last game at memorial adium. last game. and the opportunity to be bowl eligible. >> upset alert, the top 25, the big 10 in the thick of it. iowa city, in danger of the 20th ranked hawkeyes. marcus coker taking it in. that makes it 17-10. iowa under two minutes to go. osu is threatening dan harris. the buckeyes hang out for the win. they keep their big ten title hopes alive. >>> to the ice, the sharks have stumbled lately, they blew leads in the last two games tonight. not getting easier with one of the season's surprise teams. the bluejackets, they had not seen since sweden. ri

laura banke joins us with that part of the story. laura? >> go back to april. if you had told many people on opening day that the giants would win the world series, they probably would have thought you were lying. if you told them edgar renturia would be the mvp, they probably would have thought you were crazy. renturia was not a starter for the rest of the regular season. he even sat on the bench for the first five games of the post-season. but then he got a chance to capitalize. tonight his three-run homer made the dimps, making him just one of four players to have t three-run hits. >> that's unbelievable in this lifetime. i keep myself in shape, keep myself working hard, and i keep telling myself, let's be patient, we got everything to work out. sdplz so is this it? he said he will retire after this season. not a good way to go out, but you wonder if that's what he's thinking. >> thank you, laura. what a great night, huh? >> yes. there is still a big question, though. what will happen to brian wilson's beard? >> shave the beard? we won a world championship.

but few people shared laura's disdain. the public welcomed edwin booth's return when he walked down the stage of his broadway theater in january, 186 to six, less than a year after the assassination, worshipful crowds packed the auditorium, we've been applauding and every line he spoke. a new york theatrical agent from the civil war. explained. edwin booth was devoured by a thirst for fame, a very wise ambition for frank's money. and edwin booth to the largest profit after his brother's assassination of lincoln. americans hungered to see edwin on stage. not only for the throat that his genius could deliver, but to feel the sense of connection he provider to the martyred lincoln. edwin booth was a touchstone to the tragic last seen of the civil war. when they act her finally retired after a long and very profitable career, he took up residence in this luxurious club i mentioned before the players in gramercy park in new york. this cleverly decorated with images of his father, junius brutus booth and filled it with a collect
