bill clinton is getting old. he's faced mortality and he didn't want to get caught on the wrong side of history on this issue. like me, he has many gay friends, gay couples living in a loving relationship. i think it's very difficult to look at your gay friends in the eye and say you deserve less rights than i do. bill clinton's a man who has got no discrimination in his heart. i think this is the right thing to do at the right time. >> van, a similar question, when you look at the polling on this, this is no longer who believes in what. this is about the courts and what the courts decide and that's what bill clinton is saying in this op-ed. >> it's very markable. it's unbelievable to have, has it ever have a sitting president signs something into law and tells the supreme court i am wrong, what i did was unconstitutional, strike down a part myself legacy. that is a remarkable moment i think in american history. i am personally excited because the supreme court has an opportunity to do something that really conse

bill clinton has come out in favor of gay marriage. his daughter, and this is really important to note, chelsea clinton was very prominent in favor of gay marriage in new york when andrew cuomo was trying to push through legislation legalizing gay marriage in 2011. hillary clinton has not taken a position yet. it's very hard to see her doing anything other than eventually coming out in support of gay marriage, which is where her family is and her party is, as you note. >> what's stopping her do you think? she could put out an op-ed piece and have it polished up for tomorrow's paper right now. >> i think at the end of the day i think it is to be something less of an event than be a huge event. she is technically late to this. to be fair to her, she has been seen as very proactive on lesbian and gay issues in the state department. she had a pretty good record there. the gay community is generally very supportive of hillary clinton, but a lot of gay activists have said they hope she would come out -- >> you know -- >> go ahead. >> the rea

clinton signed the bill. the white house says the president has long opposed government recognition of homosexual marriages but hopes the bill won't be used as an excuse to discriminate. >> welcome back to "hardball." that was a 1996 "today" show report by bob kerr on bill clinton signing after midnight the defense of marriage act. also known as doma. by the way, he signed it just weeks before his re-election. there are no pictures of that bill signing because, as bob reported there, it happened after midnight and far away from tv cameras. today in washington in our own "washington post," clinton disavowed the bill he signed back there into law writing, quote, in a powerful new op-ed piece on march 27th doma will come before the supreme court and the justices must decide whether it's consistent with the principles of a nation that honors freedom, equality and justice above all and is therefore constitution. as the president who behind the act into law i have come to believe that doma is contrary to those prin

whereas, bill clinton loves that stuff. it doesn't mean that bill clinton is necessarily the end of the day a more effective president but the personality types are different. and i think obama is, by necessity, forcing himself to do this. he doesn't like it. i think john is 100% right. >> i'm glad you brought up bill clinton because people assume he naturally got this when he got to the white house. he didn't. when we got there in '94, i always laughed and said it's so funny that bill clinton grew up talking about a generation gap. bill clinton looks at us, the guys that came -- the sons reagan. the people that were 18 when reagan was elected and shaped our lives and he looks at us like we are from another planet. >> if you read his second book it's about transcending all difference. really the vanity and the pride of barack obama is that somehow he was post-vietnam generation post partisan and post, post, post. and that is is not the reality of politics and not the reality of life. i think he is engaging this head-on by n

let's go back in history now and talk about how bill clinton and why bill clinton signed the defense of marriage act. we looked for a picture of that. couldn't find one. >> yeah, couldn't find one. >> and why? >> why? because it was signed after midnight when it was done. it was done under the cover of darkness. it was something that clearly he wasn't proud to do, but politically speaking it was something he needed -- he felt he needed -- >> it was something -- running for re-election. republicans were trying to get at their conservative base. at the same time you had a lot of -- a lot of people out there saying if the federal government doesn't do something to stop this pernicious march of same-sex marriage that was coming out of hawaii, maybe it's time to do a u.s. constitutional amendment to cut it off completely sxwshgs so the political thinking at the time was it was really between a rock and a hard place. let this constitution -- u.s. constitutional movement happen, or put in a defense of marriage act and forestall it and stop that from happening, and as we've seen, there's bee

bill clinton had a choice. he wasn't in a tough reelection fight against senator robert dole in 1996 the mom he signed this legislation, if the supreme court rules in our favor, he ran radio ads all over the south, bracking that he had signed this legislation, so, i mean, he's done a lot of good things for the community, but i'm one of those that believe that we learn from history and we grow from history, and that we welcome change. i am certainly welcoming and excited about his endorsement for the repeat of doma. >> as you bring up watching change and 120 republicans have signed this legal brief, calling for the supreme court to overturn prop 8, dealing with california, polls by predom of marriage, the 51% of republicans under 30. >> how long do you think it will be this. >> i think the key is that john roberts will be very concerned about his legacy. this is his court, this is be the signature. the question is whether he'll go the direction of the dred scott decision, or percy verse ferguson, or if he's goin

former president bill clinton. the day before president clinton signed doma released a statement saying, quote, i have long opposed government recognition of same-gender marriages and this legislation is consistent with that position. but he says he was never comfortable with the law and earlier this month clinton wrote it was a mistake saying, quote, i know now that even worse than providing excuse for discrimination, the law itself is discriminatory. it should be overturned. joining me now democratic strategist and long time clinton adviser james carville. thanks so much for coming on. >> you bet. got some magic here. all right. democrats in terms of the gay marriage issue and immigration and amongst other things guns, the polling seems that unlike the '90s, they're really winning on these culture wars. in terms of getting married, is it the point now for democrats this is a very much winning issue. you see mark warner, claire mccaskill. you've got to get onboard with this or risk being in trouble in 2016. >> fir

king hussein of jordan, almost an enemy, and the friendly bill clinton coming to israel and winning the hearts of israelis instantly, although their positions were very critical of israeli policy, definitely is a d saddat. the trick for president obama now, and i think this is exactly what he's trying to do. he says trying to clinton-ize himself, reach out and give the israelis the hug they did not get for four years. if this works, that lays the foundation for a renewed peace process, then he can come with the difficult stuff and say to israelis, i love you so much, i care for you, i stand by you, therefore you must act now and take some risks in order to improve your position, dealing with occupation and see the middle east as it is. >>> and the middle east as it is, you understand this region so well, post-arab spring, with the real danger on israel's doorstep, not only syria in civil war, but egypt in a potential meltdown of security t. how does he deal with that? >> i think think a fair, interesting and challenging moment. he challenges everybody. israelis must realize they have to

bush, and bill clinton. and that number does not include the additional money we spend on their lifetime of secret service. it's the former president's act and it became law during the eisenhower administration just after harry truman left office. after moving out of the white house, truman could barely pay his bills. since then everyone who has taken the oath has been guaranteed an enviable allowance 0. it covers their pension, office, staff, travel, even postage. and those numbers can quickly add up. george w. bush racked up a $1.3 million tab last year, the report says, part of that money went to fund office space in dallas. 8,000 square feet of it. bill clinton apparently feels like a million bucks, too. he also spent most of his money on office space. the first president bush enjoyed taxpayer funded benefits to the tune of $850,000. and for jimmy carter, it was close to half a million. not exactly chump change especially when you factor in how much these former presidents make from book sales, speak iin

bill clinton beat them and passed a ban on assault weapons. last week in colorado, they banned gun magazines of over 15 bullets. they passed a law requiring universal background checks. if colorado, a western gun state can do it, congress can do it. the nra is not some mythical all powerful force. it is just a lobbying group. >> with all the dialogue we've had now, and it has been more than 100 days since newtown. the nra has not moved one bit from its initial reaction after that shooting to where we are now. you also have three republican senators vowing to filibuster any legislation regarding universal background checks. so you know and i know that there are some people who would say it sure looks at this point like the nra's tactic that it has used many times after other massacres and shootings is working again. >> simply put, the headlines are wrong. gun control is not dead this year. certain things, specifically a ban on assault weapons, is probably gone. we're not going to get it. other thing are still possible. universal background chec
