>>> a new low from dick cheney. let's play "hardball." >>> good evening i'm chris matthews out in los angeles. let me start tonight with this. the political right in this country has reached a new low, as i said. it has shown from the beginning that president obama doesn't deserve the decency accorded other american presidents. his enemies have called him an illegal immigrant, a street corner con artist, a fraud, a manchurian candidate brought to this country to undermine all we stand for. well, now dick cheney comes right out and calls him a liar when a right wing back bencher did that's four years ago he was called out for rebuke even by his own party. now what was condemned as historic bad behavior comes snarling out of dick cheney's mouth and nobody says to shut up. we can argue as we do here about the problems implementing the affordable care act. but is this, calling the president a liar, the new language of american politics? or is it a language specially treated for the country's first african-american presi

the forty sixth vice president of the begin ited states dick cheney he's one of the most influential and controversial men ever to hold the office he was a heartbeat away from the presidency and irony considering his long battle with cardiac disease it chronicles that in his new book heart and american medical out of he's with me at the historic way out of his hotel oval of the white house and the executive office building it's all next on politicking. for them to another edition of politicking with larry king this will be one of my favorites coasts with an old friend dick cheney the former vice president ited states we are at a historic location this is the hay adams hotel in washington this is a washington landmark is right across from the white house was right out of the building to our left the old executive office building is directly behind the vice president's shoulders two weeks prior to his first inauguration president obama's family stayed in this hotel it is historic in many many ways i go back a long way before we even start i don't get too personal a show but dick cheney

i would knowing the dick cheney i know you would have favored n.s.a. looking into other people's business of finding out what's going on for the pure as you've said before in the past national security is is the forefront of your thinking but i was a had a major hand in creating the program i was a vice president. i can remember taking it to the president and discussing it with my cade it was and at the n.s.a. and george tenet at cia and we decided if we could get more authority n.s.a. they could do a better job of intercepting terrorist communications and that's why it was set up . i've not been involved since i left the white house i would you make less of a license well i think the revelations are terrible but because they were they were revealed. there are reasons why we have classified programs i do you think the program is good the revealing was bad exactly and i think this notion that. what's his name no yes no doubt and i think he's a traitor i think he's done enormous damage to the country and but i but one of the things that i'm frustrated by

dick cheney used, right. >> when dick cheney says that, he meant he's for gay marriage. i don't know what liz meant when she said that in 2009, but if this is a strategy to win her campaign, it's a bad strategy, but when she's running a race down 30 or 50 points, depending on the poll you believe, maybe she does have really dumb strategies that she's using. >> wyoming on marriage equality, ppp poll, should same-sex marriage be legal? yes 32%. she is running in a republican primary, so it's not rocket science what the winning issue is there. >> but i think it's important to remember that it's not just what this says about her character. the republican party has long been sort of a coalition of wall street, main street and easy street. easy street meaning the west, basically. and whereas wall street wants tax cuts and main street is culturally conservative, the west wants the government out of their life. property values, gun rights, what have you. and so, i don't think this is necessarily -- wyoming is a very libertarian place and i don't think this is necessarily helpful

former president dick cheney sa -- former vice president dick cheney says he agrees with that. nice to see you, laura. >> i love this new studio. first time i'm here. >> we asked you before but doesn't show up i feel like i'm on the mary tyler moore show. is lou grant going to show up? >> this may be the last time you are ever invited. >> thank you. >> let's talk about the news tonight. bill clinton says that president obama should honor the commitment. >> well, in and of itself, bill clinton saying that he needs to honor the commitment, that in and of itself is funny. moving on from that, being bill clinton's bff, he's always going to be problematic if you are barack obama. they were tight for a while. really tight. but we are coming up to 2016. and hillary clinton, if she doesn't win, doesn't win the nomination, you can say probably in large part it will be because of obama care. that's clearly the anvil hanging around the neck of republicans. well, i mean, they are all putting distance. clinton is a smart guy. he probably hasn't thought this through, though, about -- are we

dick cheney used, right. >> when dick cheney says that, he meant he's for gay marriage. i don't know what liz meant when she said that in 2009, but if this is a tragestrategy to win campaign, it's a bad strategy, but when she's running a race down 30 or 50 points, depending on the poll you believe, maybe she does have really dumb strategies that she's using. >> wyoming on marriage equality, ppp poll, should same-sex marriage be legal? yes 32%. she is running in a republican primary, so it's not rocket science what the winning issue is there. >> but i think it's important to remember that it's not just what this says about her character. the republican party has long been sort of a coalition of wall street, main street and easy street. easy street meaning the west, basically. and whereas wall street wants tax cuts and main street is culturally conservative, the west wants the government out of their life. property values, gun rights, what have you. and so, i don't think this is necessarily -- wyoming is a very libertarian place and i don't think this is necessarily helpfu

dick cheney's new story is called "heart." the story of a patient, a doctor and 35 years of medical innovation. it's available now everywhere. up next on kudlow. another day, another record high for the dow. the 36th time the dow has closed at a high. >>> and janet yellen's scheduled testimony tomorrow was released this afternoon. hint, hint, very dovish up next on kudlow. >> the bull market still on fire. the dow and the s&p 500 today. the nasdaq sits at a 13 year high by the qua. this is key, janet yellen's testimony looks to be dovish. we have andy cross and michael farr of farr, miller in washington. i don't know why, michael farr, they did this, but yellen's testimony for tomorrow was released this afternoon. going through it, she says, we're not going to make any changes. we're going to keep buying bonds. no change at all. your reaction. >> i was kind of stunned that they came out with this. she said that the federal reserve has made significant progress toward its goals but has more work to do. okay, stock market, we're

and up next larry kane goes head to head with former us vice president dick cheney. you know i love these rare moments where action of something totally sounds positive to share with you the f.d.a. is working the band partially hydrogenated oils which are the leading source of trans fats and foods and possibly the cause of up to twenty thousand heart attacks per year across the usa according to f.d.a. commissioner margaret hamburg as you know i would like the chemicals in my food kept to a minimum but the thing is the people at the f.d.a. are surely aware of all the hormones and beef and gitmo is being produced why does the span have such a very narrow narrow focus in fact when you look at all the things that americans consume smoke use that just for health some get the violent band hammer while others are completely tolerated if you ever talk to a hardcore marijuana smoker they'll tell you but dude weed is better for you than beer and that's legal dan and they kind of have a point i think there is this is one of those rare instances where a balance position is a rea

the forty sixth vice president of the begin ited states dick cheney he's one of the most influential and controversial men ever to hold the office he was a heartbeat away from the presidency and irony considering his long battle with cardiac disease it chronicles that in his new book marked an american medical out a scene he's with me at the historic day out of his hotel oval of the evil white house and the executive office building it's all next on politicking. for them to another edition of politicking with larry king this will be one of my favorites coasts were with an old friend dick cheney the former vice president ited states we are at a historic location this is the hay adams hotel in washington this is a washington landmark is right across from the white house was right out over the building to our left the old executive office building is directly behind the vice president's shoulders two weeks prior to his first inauguration president obama's family stayed in this hotel it is historic in many many ways i go back a long way before we even start i don't get to first on this s

that is dick cheney. that dick cheney. the man who led the charge to go to war in iraq over weapons of mass destruction that they still haven't found. it's like rand paul slamming someone for plagiarism. or like, i don't know, mitt romney slamming the health care law he helped write and calling the president dishonest. oh, wait a minute, that actually happened today. >> the real problem with the president's plan is not just the rollout. that's implementation, and glitches of various kinds. it should have been done better, but it wasn't. but the real problem that the president has is a broken promise. is dishonesty. >> you can't make this stuff up. but it's all part of the right-wing plan to do everything they can to make this obama care rollout president obama's hurricane katrina. why? because it was the event, along with the iraq fiasco, that doomed the bush presidency. today, a former bush official said, quote, the echoes to the fall of 2005 are really eerie. katrina matches to the rollout of the website. another said th

and you can see more of larry's interview with dick cheney on politicking coming up at the top of the hour right here on r.t. and that does it for now i'm maggie lopez have a wonderful night. it was a. very hard. to get. that back with that earthquake there was. a bubble. oh there i marinate this is boom bust and these are the stories we're tracking for you today first up if all you want for christmas is to be debt free men look into occupies debt you believe you will tell you all about it coming right up and it's musical chairs over at the c.s. to see once again so who's come and who's going we'll fill you in and finally james golfers sat down with juan in studio to discuss debt ceiling debt crisis and the deficit of knowledge in congress you won't want to miss that it's coming right up but now let's get to the ship. with the holidays just around the corner we decided to kick off today's headlines with some debt free jubilee now this story it started all a little over one year ago when a group of occupy wall street activists created these strike down debt project known as rolling jub

which takes an inside look at the white house under president bush and his vice president, dick cheney. the administration my next guest, joining us now the author, "new york times" chief white house correspondent peter baker, the author of this brand-new book "days of fire, bush and cheney in the white house." i just want to say, peter, what a terrific read, and i haven't finished it all, but i think -- i can say this with absolute assurance. what a terrific job at giving us an insightful look at two men who are too often painted in cardboard poses. so welcome to the broadcast. congratulations on the book. >> thank you very much. >> i've got to ask you, how did you write such a bookworking for "the new york times"? can i do that? >> well, look. you know, i think it was important to go ba and look at this presidency and try to look at things we didn't see at the time. you know what we discover when we look back is that when we cover things, we get 5% to 15% of what's going on. this is a chance at peeling back the onion, looking for things that surprise us. i think what surprises us abo

james, we just got the statement in from dick and lynn cheney. this is an issue we dealt with privately for many years and pained to see it become public. liz has always believed in the traditional belief in marriage and treated her sten area sister's family with love and respect. compassion is called for even when there's disagreement and such a fundamental matter. liz's many kindnesses should not be used to distort her position. that's just in -- i don't think this moves the ball forward one way or the other. but i am curious and people have wondered, is liz cheney contacted her sister mary or at least prepared her for what she had to expect would happen on sunday? >> tamron, it's good to be with you and it is a pretty remarkable family squabble. it really speaks to a divide in the republican party and divide in the country. mary cheney is not a political novice, she played a key role on her father and george w. bush's 2000 and 2004 presidential campaigns. she's worked closely with her sister. it really is surprising that this has come out and

. >> has dick cheney been consistent in this position since 2000? >> he has been. for the most part. focused on the idea that 9/11 represents only a tip of the iceberg. he advocated policies that others may not have made and he believed it was necessary in defense of the country and he remained fixed on it. president bush always believed in the defense of the country but began to see these other trade-offs pursued a different direction like more diplomacy and things that are so controversial.

. >> what about the number of dick cheney? >> i think that he expresses regret, but he opens up about his attitude and his point of view, like you could get a better look and he is kind of a cipher. they don't understand him because he is not as public as bush has been over the years and i think how he saw the world and why he was pushing 40 and. >> were you able to interview both principles? >> yes, he was very helpful and very willing to talk and president bush chose not to talk to me for the book. there were about 275 people that were important in the bush years including david petraeus and a lot of others in the vast majority of the record, which makes this such a valuable document of history. >> has dick cheney been consistent in this position since 2000? >> he has been. for the most part. focused on the idea that 9/11 represents only a tip of the iceberg. he advocated policies that others may not have made and he believed it was necessary in defense of the country and he remained fixed on it. president bush always believ

cheney's surgery is, you're going to get dick cheney's crappy old heart. and you know what, this is the kind of things they're offering. and so to defend that is really, really foolish. but -- go ahead. >> well, the thing is, they say you're going to, you know, get cancellation notices, lose your insurance. what do you think, that insurance companies haven't been cancelling any insurance policies up to now? >> right. >> you get sick, you get cut off. >> right. precision. that was something that happened before obama care. it's almost like before christ, before albuquerque obama care. you could get dropped. >> why couldn't bill clinton explain that in a short sentence? >> i think what bill clinton sees, and when i heard this was the case, right, i think the biggest fundamental problem that the president made when -- if you like your health care plan, you can keep it, was that they assume that small percentage was going to sound good to people. but when you parse that out to millions of people, that's where it got bad. and i think that that is where this who

and today all right thank you sir and you too both his heart dick cheney and jonathan reiner and liz cheney helped aboard to this is been another edition of politicking with larry king next week bob woodward thanks for joining us today. if you've. got no opportunity. to start to construct your own. kids don't want to be bad. don't want to meet gangsters you don't want to be drug dealers they don't want that blowing up the time that the kid came be we can see. you just made some hundred dollars and i babied in the hood with a thirty round clip. but i put it out there. i don't want to die i got this really do not want to die young young age. we speak your language anybody will not advance. news programs and documentaries and spanish more matters to you breaking news a little turn to tip angles kidneys storage spiritless are you here slim try to alter the spanish find out more visit i don't call tito it's calm. but the place if it was terrible take place very hard to take a look once again look on here there's a place that you never had sex with that earthquake there is no place to live

and i would say about dick cheney, dick cheney took on his own running mate in 2000 and said, look, i disagree with him on this. i think this is an issue that should be left to the states. there should not be a constitutional amendment. so their father has been very much in the forefront on this, i would say in the republican party in a way. >> thanks to both of you. and i have to say, i would love to be, you know, a turkey on the table at that thanksgiving. >> i don't want to be around them with forks and knives. >> they got to work that out. >> thanks to both of you. >>> still to come, lady gaga discusses the dangers of marijuana. she says she was addicted to pot. you may be scratching your head saying how is that possible. dr. drew comes on to talk about whether her claims add up or not. >>> and the plane crash in which 50 people lost their lives what investigators can learn about what caused the crash. as your life changes, fidelity is there for your personal economy, helping you readjust along the way, refocus as careers change and kids head off to college, and revisit your inves

dick cheney is in favor of same-sex marriage. i don't think this is a repeat of the story we're typically seeing in families across the country. it seems like liz has been supportive of her sister and family and was saying in 2009 we think freedom means freedom for everybody. when dick cheney says that, he means he's for gay marriage. liz is know running in the senate in wyoming. i suspect deep down she doesn't have a personal problem. >> which makes it weirder. you get it. there's politics beginning on here. listen, growing up in a political family you don't do this. the family never gets out in public and talks about what's going on. >> i think it's so counterproductive. look, whomever may oppose gay marriage probably opposes family drama. i have seen no instances in politics where family drama leads to go things. >> you can't squash it. family is family. doesn't matter how much power you may have. >> can i throw a dissenting thought on this? >> mary's anger makes liz's opposition less sincere, personally costly. just saying. >

and i would say about dick cheney, dick cheney took on his own running mate in 2000 and said, look, i disagree with him on this. i think this is an issue that should be left to the states. there should not be a constitutional amendment. so their father has been very much in the forefront on this, i would say in the republican party in a way. >> thanks to both of you. and i have to say, i would love to be, you know, a turkey on the table at that thanksgiving. >> at thanksgiving? >> i don't want to be around them with forks and knives. >> they got to work that out. >> thanks to both of you. >>> still to come, lady gaga discusses the dangers of marijuana. she says she was addicted to pot. you may be scratching your head saying how is that possible. we've all been told it's fine and that's why it should be legalized. dr. drew comes on to talk about whether her claims add up or not. >>> a chilling video of a plane crash in which 50 people lost their lives. what investigators can learn about this video about what caused the crash. so my dog and i we're going to go find it. it's out there so

bush and dick cheney. joining me now is the author, "new york times" white house correspondent peter baker. peter, i have to say, the excerpts i've read from this book, it is fascinating. you're clearing up so many things that we just -- i didn't see it coming. so it's really cool. really good stuff. >> thank you very much. appreciate that. very kind. >> before we get to details about that, though, what's happening in wyoming, does it surprise you to see the vice president getting personal in his daughter's race? disparaging senator enzi and saying they were never really friends when you're getting something completely different from enzi. >> it's very interesting, obviously. he loves his daughter, wants her to succeed, no question about it. but it is the first time the vice president's really kind of weighed in that way, in a republican primary battle. it tells you about what a small place wyoming is. this is a family state. only about 600,000 people or so. everybody knows everybody. so the -- this race h

i mean, dick cheney and paul ryan lecturing the president on honesty, really? >> and at the worst, the president misspoke and maybe made a mistake in speaking. but it was not to mislead. now, i think the other part of this that is extremely important is that i think in the absence of an agenda, this is the gop agenda for the next year. and so in the absence of an agenda, they're going to concentrate on trying to dismantle something that will help the american public. keep in mind, i hope all the viewers understand this. that health care was one of the chief causes for bankruptcy in this country. and they're talking about this was something good that the president has destroyed? that's ridiculous. we can fix this. as the great theologian said, we've seen the enemy and it is us, it is the congress for failure to fix something that can be repaired rather easily i think. keep in mind, medicare when it was rolled out also had problems. but the democrats did not go out and try to destroy it. >> now, you know, joan, i want to raise something interesting. in a special

trade balance or budget balance for anything but a very short period of time ok now dick cheney he once said that i want to get this straight reagan proved that deficits deficits don't matter he was mombasa by both sides for making this comment do you agree with mr cheney on the deficit matter it pains me to say so but i do can you expand the well this was the experience the people in the reagan administration had that they launched a program based upon a very large tax reduction very large increase at least one aspect of government spending. and they were threatened with the same kind of calamitous financial outcomes and yes interest rates went up in the early reagan years and i think that he wanted to but then they stabilized and came down again simply because the federal reserve changed policy so it became clear that the reagan administration could in fact get away in the world the climate that was just being established at that time with the financial. posture that they took. coming up more with jim and what happens in congress refuses to read the reason the debt ceiling we discusse
