ultimately, rahm emanuel was forced out of the white house. he was forced out by michelle and valerie jarrett. to edward klein, what are your politics. are you a conservative? >> i would describe myself as someone who is right of center, that makes me conservative -- i guess that makes me conservative. i'm certainly not a liberal. my training as a reporter is to let the facts speak for themselves. but i do have a sense that this country has been drifting in the wrong direction, and that it ought to be righted, using that in both senses of the word. >> have your politics changed over the years? >> i think i have been a conservative or conservative -- conservative leaning individual. i am actually quite libertarian on some issues,. >> were you surprised by some of the findings in her book? >> the thing that surprised me the most in this book, i expected and the many trips that i took to chicago, i live in new york and went to chicago many times, i expected to find, and this might be my own prejudice, that african-americans, you know, unanimously

joining me now is missouri congressman emanuel cleaver, chairman of the congressional black caucus and karen finney, former communications director for the democratic national committee. thank you both for being here. >> good to be with you. >> thanks, reverend. >> chairman cleaver, let me start with you. why did romney make this speech today? you hear my feeling. what do you feel? >> well, i don't know whether that were strategic moves that dictated this speech be made to the naacp and he would then offer something to the base. i'm not sure. i would choose to believe that he legitimately wanted to go to the naacp. i think that all presidential candidates ought to do that. even republicans who are not generally going to receive a great deal of african-american support. for variety of reasons we don't have time to go into on the show. but i do think that his advisers

look at the stimulus that rahm emanuel cited. under 6% unemployment now with $787 billion of government spending and we're over 8% unemployment. >> it's more difficult, i think you would concede for romney to make that, those republicans clearly worried that he's going to continue to face the questions if he doesn't release the returns, you're not? >> i think that the difficult thing is for the president to answer to his economic record with the failed stimulus, higher health care costs and look where we are, he said that he was going to cut the deficit in half in his first four years. he's added $5 trillion to the debt. we have had no budget. look it, right now, one of the things that's most disturbing, our military is going to be decimated because across the board cuts. >> yet, at the same time, i have to go back to you on the tax returns, you're saying it's not going to hurt. i want to show the filing that the obama campaign continues to refer to, back in 1999, mr. w. mitt romney is the sole shareholder, sole director, chief e

emanuel took office a little over a year ago. he was white house chief of staff in the first two years of the obama administration. before that he was a chicago area congressman. mayor emanuel brought in a new police suspect and crime is down in this city about 10% with the one exception of murder. >> i got a letter from a viewer the other day who asked us why we were spending so much time at the evening news covering afghanistan when more people were dying in chicago. why is the murder rate up 38%? >> well, first of all, scott, let's give everybody... your viewers a fair view. crime year over year is down 10%. >> pelley: other kinds of crime, other than homicide. >> burglary, armed rob rishgs theft, 10%. so we have a gun violence issue specifically tied to gangs. so we've readjusted the strategy closing liquor stores and communities where are that are a magnet and cancer on the community for gangs and narcotics, boarding up buildings or tearing them down where gang bangers have taken them over. putting the command and district l

we sat down with emanuel in chicago to talk about managing the third largest city in hard times. in terms of jobs, as a mayor, is washington so grid-locked now that it's essentially useless to you and you need to go out and do your own thing in the city of chicago because the help is not coming from d.c.? >> where i used to as the mayor rely on washington, i'm going to try to come up with different strategies to do a breakout because i'm not going to get stuck in their dysfunctionality. i'm not going to get caught in the back of the state. they have their own budgetary issues. on the other hand, if washington doesn't do certain things, i can't create an island, as much as i would like to. i can't hold off certain decisions that washington does, but where i can have a breakout, we're going to take our road of independence. >> reporter: you said washington was dysfunctional. >> okay. is that breaking news? you're not going live with that right now, are you, scott? >> pelley: that's the way it seems to you running the third largest city in america. "dysfunctional." >> yeah, i have m

. >> what is or was valerie's relationship with rahm emanuel in the white house? >> not a good one. to this day, rahm does not have good things to say about vale. he was opposed to the president, and this is not just my reporting, but other's reporting as well, the president going for broke on obamacare. he thought he should do incremental steps first, small steps, popular steps he could get republican backing for. vale and michelle obama were the two people who said, listen, mr. president -- actually valerie calls him barack, the only person in the white house other than michelle who does, you were elected to be not just president, but to be a special president, a transformational president, a person who is going to change the direction and course ofmerica, and you can't just do this piecemeal. you have to take the whole thing. go for the health care bill, to go down in history as the first president to pass a national health care bill, and he listened to vale and michelle, not to rahm emanuel, and this was the beginning of emanuel's erosion of power because it was one of several e

chicago mayor rahm emanuel says the chicago gang killers have values. what? and later dennis miller on a 6-year-old whose parents put >> bill: factor follow-up you segment. we have been reporting on the horrendous murder rampage in the city of chicago. last night two young girls ages 12 and 14 shot and wounded in a gang crossfire. to far this year, 263 people murdered in the windy city. up 39% from last year alone. chicago mayor rahm emanuel says this. >> we have two gang bangers one standing next to a kid, get away from that kid. take your you stuff to the alley. don't touch the children of the city of chicago. don't get near them. and it is about values and i don't buy this case where are people say they don't have values. they do have values. they have the wrong values. >> bill: with all due respect to mayor emanuel i have no idea what he is talking about. he asked him to come on the program and he has not agreed. joining us, a senior pastor at the st. john bible church. do you know what values he is talking about? >> the blame game goes on here in chicago

should that not also be a concern for rahm emanuel. if you want to work there work if if you don't you shouldn't. >> i don't think any job should outweigh your willingness and belief in certain issues. if you believe strongly in marriage equality as rahm emanuel and i do then no amount of money earned there is going to be going against this cause. the state can't just say this guy has done bad things, if he's discriminating against gays and lesbians in the employment arena or as customers then the city has a right and responsibility to step in and make sure that those descriptions are dealt with. martha: i want to show you guy a scene that played out in laguna hills, california, i haven't seen this video yet, i read about it this morning. let's take a look at it. this is a protest that happened outside of chick-fil-a establishment there. the protestors were telling customers who were coming towards this -- this restaurant that they should go elsewhere. so this is obviously stirred up a lot of discussion on this big issue. another thing

>>host: what is them relationship with rahm emanuel? >> not good and is not have good things to say about her. the president going for broke on obamacare. he thought he should do small steps first. valerie jarrett and michelle obama they said listen. valerie calls him barack. the only person who does. but transformation knoll president. midcourse of america. you have to go for the health care bill to go down in history the first president pass saying the health care bill. this is the beginning of the erosion of power that the president listens to the ideology of valerie jarrett rather than pragmatic advice of rahm emanuel who was forced out by michelle and valerie and he resents that. >>host: edward klein, water your politics? >> i would describe myself right of center. i am certainly not a liberal. my training lets the fact speak for itself that this country has been drifting in the wrong direction but it should be rite aid. >>host: have your politics changed? >> i think being conservative leaning. but that some social issues i am libe

kind of started talking about this yesterday with the chick fil a story and with boston and now rahm emanuel from chicago is getting into it to take a look. to fully values are not chicago values are not respectful. of our residents our neighbors and our family members. part of this is really spurring a huge debate and i have actually really loved seeing everything that you are writing about of the twitter wars that are going on as to whether you know it's a violation of the freedom of speech for public figures to actually come in and say that you know just because the president of your company has a certain political view doesn't mean that we're going to not give you permits right or try to block your business there are people saying that that's completely unfair or excuse me the other way around that that should totally stand and be right what do they say since when does shug chicago care about being with respectable. people who live there and the people that surround them like i lived in chicago there's nothing like fancy about it just watch a drive go oh damn you. i'm sorry i'm tired or

>>lis: why grow with you, rahm emanuel. >>neil: if you feel strongly don't go to the store. >> you can tell your family not to go but to say the city will take on that government policy makes no sense. come out, rahm emanuel, as an individual and say okay he expressed his first amendment rights. >>neil: if china wants to come in and hire workers i will go to china because you need the help. >> i am amazed he would get up and speak on behalf the people i do in the support chick-fil-a's statement but i support their right to say what they believe and what they want. it is in the right that he is taking a position, using politics for this purpose, to speak against, again, a private company. that is the key. >>lis: and the strange things of the bands and the boycotts, what is good for the goose is great for the gander. >> it will all come back to chunky monkey. >>neil: can we pick some up, by the way? >>lis: the goose and the gander. if you say it one day for one party and the next day it is used against you for the other party

chicago mayor rahm emanuel says the chicago gang killers have values. what? and later dennis miller on a 6-year-old whose parents put him in a video. those reports after these messages. all multivitamins give me the basics. they claim to be complete. only centrum goes beyond. providing more than just the essential nutrients, so i'm at my best. centrum. always your most complete. so i'm at my best. this is new york state. we built the first railway and the first trade route to the west. we built the tallest skyscrapers, the greatest empires. we pushed the country forward. then, some said, we lost our edge. we couldn't match the pace of the new business world. well today, there's a new new york state. one that's working to attract businesses and create jobs. build energy highways and high-tech centers. nurture start-ups and small businesses. reduce tax burdens and provide the lowest middle class tax rate in 58 years. once again, new york state is a place where innovation meets determination and where businesses lead the world. the new new york works for busines

professed his anti gay marriage views now mayor rahm emanuel says these views aren't consistent with the views of the city of chicago similar backlash in boston now government leaders want them to block the fast food joint from expanding in the cities but wait a minute is this a decision government leaders should make earlier i was joined by mike riggs associate editor for reason dot com i asked them if government officials should be able to block businesses just because of their political views. i absolutely not the licensing boards and zoning boards in chicago and boston and let's be clear that's what rahm emanuel and then mary you know in boston they're talking about using the zoning restrictions to get to play out those do not exist to test to to and to do political atmos test for business owners they are there they're used quite frequently i mean this is just a very public example of how those boards are abused but they're supposed to be there for state. zoning boards are supposed to exist licensing boards are supposed to exist to make sure that restaurants serve healthy food or

a little bit of a cynic so i actually think that neither rahm emanuel or mahmoud abbas i don't think either one of them have any intention of following through with. chick fil a out. me a lot of big city mayors well sort of push back against chains entering their cities and sort of electing floodwall martin but i think more than anything this is sort of a rallying the troops thing you know one of the ways to sort of to get people amped up before an election culture war issues work really well class war issues worked really well so i just wouldn't be surprised if this was a way of sort of rallying the troops in addition to that some people are calling this an attack on free speech would you go as far as a column that. absolutely whether or not you agree with the citizens united ruling . or with a large campaign slash issue expenditures that aren't affected by this is like the fact of the matter is the money that the kathy family which owns should play has been on political issues is legal that's legal and supreme court has ruled that account of the speech so regardless of whether or n

. >> reporter: emanuel gerry is only 13 years old, but living with type 2 diabetes for two years now. doctors say the condition is a result of his weight and his poor eating habits. >> my favorite food is pizza. i eat a lot of pezza. i usually make a hamburger, some fries, and i drink a lot of soda. >> reporter: while jerry is working out to eat healthier and lose some weight, doctors worry he is part of a growing number of children with type 2 diabetes who have trouble getting the disease under control. >> it really doesn't seem that type 2 diabetes is different in children than in adults. >> reporter: johns hopkins center dr. david cook says they don't know why the disease acts differently in children. some believe it's the result of adolescent hormones that react differently to insulin. the problem is left uncontrolled, diabetes can have devastating complications like blindness, kidney heart and nerve diseases. >> those things happens in adults in their 50s and 60s so when we're thinking about children at 10 or 15, they have many, many years of life to put them at risk of these com

the numbers do not favor rob emanuel. i mean the number of homicides in chicago, the same time this year to last year up 39%. you mentioned that seven-year-old girl, other children also getting caught in the crossfire. but mayor emanuel says it's the policies of the previous administration that failed not the new policies. the old policy used hundreds of strike units to go in and stat rate the crime-ridden areas. the new policy keeps police in specific areas. you see the mayor right there at a press conference. listen to him talk about his new policy. play this. >> we put them out in our neighborhood and made our commander's in each area responsible. i'm not happy, nor am i content and gary and a al know that with the level of gun violence related to gangs. >> reporter: the mayor and the police commissioner says flooding those areas, saturating was kind of like putting a band-aid on a gunshot wound. now the former police commissioner and the alder men whose areas are gang areas issued a blistering attack on rahm emanuel a

mike emanuel is like for us in washington. it sounds like the president doesn't want to average state the gun lobby. what about governor romney? >>reporter: he said in an interview in london he does not believe america needs new gun laws. romney said what happened in aurora, colorado, was against the law but the fact it is against the law did not stop it from happening. on wednesday, president obama characterized his position in this way. >> i, like most americans, believe the second amendment guarantees an individual the right to bear arms. but i also believe a lot of gun owners would believe that an ak-47's belong in the hands of soldiers and not criminals. and they belong on the battlefield of war. not on the streets of our cities >>reporter: there lab talk on capitol hill about gun laws but mostly just talk. harry reid says with the schedule lawmakers have there is no way, no way, no way to have a debate on gun control. trace? >>trace: what do groups on either side say following the tragedy in aurora? >>reporter: the nra d

number one, the reason that rahm emanuel said that is because he wanted the president to concentrate on the economy and not get sidetracked into this and emanuel was right because the economy. >> he also argued bill for step-by step approach because he lived through the failure of hillary care. >> secondly the republicans had an opportunity, it seems to me right now, because of all the attention focused on the obama care power grab by the federal government to say, you know what? we're not going to do that we're going to go the private sector route and here is how it's going to benefit you. a, b, c, and d. i don't want to a big colosis. i didn't say i want. not i want. sounds like i'm rooting. as an american i would like to hear the other side of the story so i can make a determination on what's better for my family. >> they have a and b in place. look, the -- i think the republics on political terms are doing the right thing. the focus is on people's dislike of obama care. what the republics are focused on is taking obama care away. and i think that sensibly is where the focus shoul

that's where moreno steps in or rahm emanuel or, you know, officials in philly or boston. but you want to know something? this is alarmingly ignorant when it comes to politicians and their understanding of the first amendment. believe it or not, and it should be very clear to them, this is protected speech under the first amendment. mr. cathy can say anything he wants as long as he doesn't deny service. if these politicians are not alarmingly ignorant, then they're clearly flouting what their obligation is under the constitution by swearing to uphold it and, frankly, it's really offensive that they're doing this. you want to fight discrimination, do it right. but speech is protected under the constitution. if that building permit is denied, watch out, chicago. you're going to get hit with big damages and that permit is going to be ordered by a federal judge to be granted to chick-fil-a. >> we heard at least one boston official chiming in kind of in agreement with chicago but then the new york mayor chimed in and said what you just said, avery, this is a first amendment rig

why did rahm emanuel make a big stink about their opinions? >> you make a great point there. if you look at one group of people that is as anti-gay as anybody you look at the radical islamists. in iran, if you are found to be gay, you are killed. radical islam, shariya law has zero tolerance for gays but you see the main stream media, the left in america rallying around trying to -- >> i have to get out. rick santorum. thank you. i have to get out. i hate to do it. uh i have to. nick gillespie, rick santorum. that's it for tonight's show. thanks for watching. i'll say this. good for freedom. it's going to prevail in this whole story. choose control. introducing gold choice. the freedom you can only get from hertz

mike emanuel looks at the hard hit construction sector. carl cameron reports on how the candidates are defining themselves. and each other. but we begin tonight with chief white house correspondent ed henry who is traveling with the president. >> reporter: after taking heat saying the private sector is doing fine, president obama today brushed aside a dismal jobs report to insist the economy is on the right track. >> businesses created 4.4 million new jobs in the past 28 months, including 500,000 new manufacturing jo jobs. that is a step in the right direction. [ applause ] >> reporter: as he rolled his way through two battlegrounds the president's point was while the country has come a long way in states like ohio and pennsylvania have unemployment rate below the national average he is till pushing hard. >> we have to grow the economy the fastest. >> reporter: presumptive republican nominee mitt romney had none of it. interrupting his new hampshire vacation to blast away. >> it is another kick in the gut to middle class families. >> repor

but mayor emanuel disagrees. don welsh, president of "choose chicago", says his office has been getting calls with questions about rising murder rates and mob attacks by youths on michigan avenue. welsh told the tribune's editorial board, the city won't be able to attract more conventions and tourism, unless the problems are solved soon. but he backtracked a bit, after the mayor's office said more and more people are coming to chicago... and they understand these incidents are isolated to gangs. chicago police have also put more officers on patrol along the mag mile. next: a kayaker's close encounter with a great white shark .... also ahead: tragedy in the french alps... an avalanche barrels down on climbers killing several while others remain missing. evidence in the second degree zimmerman. and: reaction after jesse jackson junior's doctors reveal the congressman is being treated [ female announcer ] with swiffer wet cleaning better doesn't have to take longer. i'm done. i'm gonna...use these. ♪ give me just

well, dennis burke just so happens to have drafted up the clinton era assault weapons ban with rahm emanuel, of course, served as president obama's chief of staff. eric holder, who's changed his testimony multiple times, says he knew nothing about this program, right? the very same time dennis burke has this longstanding professional relationship with janet napolitano, and while he is serving as attorney in arizona, he's sitting on eric holder's attorney general's advisory board giving him direct advice on border policy on the border, yet they all claim that they never talk to each other and that none of them knew anything about this. >> ruth carlson from eagle forums st. louis. my question is, how did this catch your eye and how did it catch your eye and go into a book? >> yes, to answer your second question, first. all of you in this room are capable of doing exactly this. the reason i, this caught my eye was when the news started sort of coming out about it, my first question was why would the obama administration be giving guns to the very people they made this huge effort and this huge
