we will speak live with louisiana governor. the show is in louisiana. bobby jindal is next about what happened after he publically defended phil robertson. suffering from the flu is a really big deal. with aches, fever and chills- there's no such thing as a little flu. so why treat it like it's a little cold? there's something that works differently than over-the-counter remedies. prescription tamiflu attacks the flu virus at its source. so call your doctor right away. tamiflu treats the flu in people 2 weeks and older whose flu symptoms started within the last two days. before taking tamiflu tell your doctor if you're pregnant, nursing, have serious health conditions, or take other medicines. if you develop an allergic reaction, a severe rash, or signs of unusual behavior, stop taking tamiflu and call your doctor immediately. children and adolescents in particular may be at an increased risk of seizures, confusion or abnormal behavior. the most common side effects are mild to moderate nausea and vomiting. so don't wait. attack the flu virus at its sour

citizens of the state of louisiana. the politically correct crowd of tolerant of all -- is tolerant of all viewpoints. except those they disagree with. senator ted cruz also jumped into the ring, saying that if you believe free speech or religious liberty, you should be deeply dismayed over the treatment of phil robertson. i mean, this is just amazing to me. no one is infringing on phil robertson's first amendment rights. the government and the media aren't curbing his ability to express his opinions. or stopping him. phil robertson has every right to be a bigot. but phil robertson's employer has made a business decision in suspecting him. this is a free market at work, folks. this is capitalism at work. and the a & e network is a private business, a business trying to protect its relationship with viewers and advertisers. suspending robertson. it just seems really strange that they don't understand the suspension. no one in the government, no one anywhere, is telling phil robertson he can't go out anywhere across ameri

the presiding officer: the senator from louisiana. ms. landrieu: mr. president? mr. president, before my colleague leaves the floor, i want to just thank him for his leadership of the banking committee in the senate for now several years and his commitment to try to find the right regulatory framework for the largest banks in our country, as well as our community banks, and i think the chairman has had a lot of challenges, as we all have, and i just want to thank him and for his strong advocacy of this particular nominee and for his help on so many issues, one of which i am going to speak about now with colleagues from florida and from new york. mr. president, many of us on both sides of the aisle from all parts of the country have been working very hard for the last year, and some of us even longer than that, to try to present good, solid information to the senate and to congress about how important the national flood insurance program is in many different dimensions. first of all, for those that live along the coast, which is 60% of our population in the united s

robertson has his defenders clinoiding former alaska governor sarah palin, texas senator ted cruz, and louisiana governor bobby ginnedle. the governor has some harsh words for a. & e. to highlight miley cyrus over the holiday. >> i think there's hypocrisy on the left when the left is tolerant of every viewpoint except those that disagree with them. so here you have a network saying we will allow miley cyrus to be on this special, and they are trying to silence phil for spiking up and saying his mind? >> does he have a point. for more on skype, he is a senior editor with the american conservative magazine, with me from cleveland ohio. and political science professor at hiram college. jason,ly start with you, did a & e do the right thing when they put him on this indefinite hiatus. >> well, they did the right thing for money, but not politically or morally. stereotype, it is not something we made up. i the only imagine the things they say on the cutting room floor, if you are trying to get people that represent this older way of thinking you should have just kept them on the air, and say we ripry

louisiana had made one so we used louisiana spots and we got approved for hours before they did. [laughter] on your way to express lane automation. >> and that wasn't cheating? just kidding. it sounds like an innovative approach. rebecca what do you see is the potential next frontier to make enrollment and renewal more efficient? >> well, i think the new presumptive eligibility for virginia is going to be a big step forward because it is taking that leap and taking some basic information and expediting enrollment for folks. so i'd think that partnering with the hospitals to ensure we have ongoing coverage for individuals is important. but we don't want to just rely on folks going to the hospital and being uninsured and getting enrolled. we will continue to look at options for us. i think the enrollment process that gretel has been talking about and stan has been talking about, there is devil in the details they are about does your state really have two separate eligibility systems for those programs where you can do a data match into the streamlined enrollment for cms or not and

>> louisiana state university, she was promoted after these events because because while the evidence was there, although these deaths were hasten, the drugs were given. what the motivation was was really what the case was hinged upon. and however if it was given for comfort, that is something that we do allow in the united states, certainly, to treat patients for comfort towards the end of their lives. but the experts were called in to look at these cases were pretty convinced, there is one who dissented, that just the pattern of so many deaths in such a short period of time led them to believe that this was more than just an effort to provide comfort. but there was great sympathy for these health professionals in louisiana because of the larger context that the decisions were made in. and failures to respond quickly enough on a governmental level, so given that context, they felt that how can these arrests, with all of that failing around them. >> sheri fink, when the news reports come out about what may have occurred at memorial? >> very early on there were doctors and nurses who r

for the network to profit so handsomely off this window of so-called rednecks in louisiana and then act so offended when guess what, they turn out to say the things you might expect self-proclaimed rednecks from louisiana to say is ridiculous. "duck dynasty" is airing on reruns all weekend. if they actually -- if they wanted to make a stand on principle here, they should probably cancel the show, which i suspect they are not going to do. >> we'll take a short break and continue the conversation after the break. later, what you can do if you swiped your card at target and hacker swiped your numbers. we'll have the answers about the massive data theft coming up. >>> welcome back, we're talking about the "duck dynasty" controversy. >> any gay expression at all to adultery, which is a form of heterosexual expression, he compared it to dog rape, to somebody raping an animal, and that is increasingly impermissible i think in the public discourse, especially when so many people that want to make those analogies and lean on the testament that expresses heterosexual or sexual. if your daughter i

here are two ads running now in louisiana. one by the national republican senatorial committee and the other by senator landrieu's campaign. take a look. >> there's danger lurking out there. many have warned that it's coming. and now it's on the hunt and headed for you. at least 80,000 people statewide will not be able to keep their current insurance because of the federal health care overhaul. louisianans are struggling because of obama care. but for some reason mary landrieu is running on obama care. and shereenly told reporters quote, i'm not concerned about anything. course she cast the deciding vote for obama care in the first place. it's the brave new world of government incompetence and we're going to live in. >> i'm mary landrieu and i approve this message. hundreds of thousands of people across the country losing their current coverage. but identify said to the president you told them they could keep it. >> landrieu introduced keeping the affordable care act promise. >> i'm fixing it and that's what my bill does. sena

if the energy committee chairmanship is filled by vulnerable louisiana democrat mary landrieu, that could also help the democrats in the midterms. landrieu as energy committee chairwoman would likely see big oil and gas turn on the spigot of campaign cash for her senate run next year. so when it all shakes out, sending one democrat to the other side of the planet could be seen as a way to preserve two more democrats in washington, d.c. as baucus prepares for his assignment in china, should he be confirmed, perhaps the politicos here should consider that life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated. i want to bring in chief congressional correspondent dana bash, who has been following this story. you actually caught up with max baucus, who does not give a lot of interviews today. what did he have to say? >> first, i should say he was leaving the senate for the year and he was in a good mood. maybe that's why he agreed to stop. nominees to these posts usually don't talk about it before they are confirmed, but he happens to be as you said a sitting united states senator, so

. >> and so the government wants to use land in louisiana to protect one type of frog. >> we're haunted by kasper the frag. >> actually the mississippi gopher frog. he calls him kaspar the ghost because none of these frogs live anywhere near ed's property. >> i looked it up on their web site, and found out that by their own publications, the frog has not been seen in the state of louisiana because our land is not suitable for it. >> this frog doesn't exist in this area. >> it doesn't right now. it has historically. >> why ills it fair to impose this on this poor guy? >> that's a good question. right now there are less than 100 of these frogs in the wild. previously thousands. they used to be in louisiana, and this land owner has five great ponds in his property. >> the government went after the man's land after bill snake's group, the center for biological diversity, sued fish and wildlife for not doing enough to protect kasper here. >> the government can just say, oh, this is a good spot? >> technically, yes, but that isn't how i would put it. they think that wild america is cool ameri
