And if you didnt have that thing on your head you would be bald. Stephanie and did yall see that picture of me and Newt Gingrich . [ applause ] stephanie he and melissa were in coach on my flight to charlotte. I just watched the president get reinaugurated and get on air force one, and watch Newt Gingrich. [ circus music ] stephanie he was being mobbed by a lot of black people that wanted his picture, who im sure hate him and would never vote for him, but he is famous. Famousish. Stephanie i just said hi and i said mr. Speaker my dad was blah blah. You pulled your dad card. Stephanie i pulled my dad card. [ laughter ] did you say frankly . Did you get that in there . Come on. Frankly. Stephanie i texted david bender, and he is like get a picture. You know who was on our flight . Wait a minute, im not done with my story. Callista on the plane with him, and at baggage claim she was nowhere to be seen. So i im thinking he divorced her. Thats possible. Stephanie okay. Go ahead. We had David Arquette on our flight. Stephanie wow. And more importantly somebody important is on the phone. Karl frisch stephanie i even got to cuddle with him and spoon with him. Oh, my goodness is it over . Stephanie it was like prom weekend. You were at pretty much every ball werent you . Stephanie i started the weekend with lady momma and ended with lady gaga. Stephanie thats right. You tweeted it is so cold in new york that dexter von frisch is currently wearing his down coat. Thats right. There is something that follows a sexy liberal performance, its called a sexy liberal hangover. Stephanie which is not quite as fun. I had lunch with you the next day and you seemed fine. It was fine. My favorite was on the walk over from the hotel, steph says now is there good food late at night in d. C. . And jeff chriss good friend and i just sort of laughed. Were not new york were not l. A. , but there is bar food. Stephanie all right. Lets dive into the rightwing world. I loved they agree with hilary, there is a vast right wing conspiracy but apparently it is to keep her president. Hannity said it was staged. Thats right. And when rightwingers see human emotion, they are perplexed. Stephanie exactly. Sean hannity. What you saw in this answer this anger this outrage, i can tell you was not spontaneous. Im telling you, it was staged under probably the direction of the raging cagen james carvel himself or somebody else. They knew this was coming. And this was their strategy. What difference does it make . Does it really matter . Of course it matters to people that want the truth. You idiot. Stephanie wow. Just to show you how little the rightwing has changed. They still have got clinton derangement syndrome from the 90s. Stephanie yeah. This was well play im sure we have it. But it was ron johnson the republican of wisconsin asked her why she didnt make a simple phone call to the oh vak youees. She said with all due respect we had four americans dead what difference did it make . She said she wanted the fbi to have time to do their job, and what difference does it make whether they knew exactly what it was right away. Stephanie right. And they are still trying to figure out out like we all are. Stephanie but in the heat of a tragedy, and she has just been told her friend and ambassador had been killed, she is going to go wait a minute, was there a video . It shows their fixation on unimportant details. Were getting more and more information, and you know stephanie yeah. This is what happens when you see republicans spoiling for a fight when there is nothing to fight over. What is to fight over is who cut funding for embassy security. Exactly. Where the hell do they get off complaining about this at all . Stephanie thank you. And john mccain was just shaking his fist and im glad to see oh im just fighting with myself well he can be slightly forgiven he had to endure another inauguration from the man who beat him. I was not sitting too far from the president during the inauguration and he was sitting next to orrin hatch, and he was wearing an orange shirt, and mccain was wearing only aviator glasses. Stephanie all right. Rush limbaugh. It was like a pukefest. It was right out of banana republic. I have never seen gravelling sucking up, butt kissing, Hillary Clintons testimony. And she lost her cool at one point. By the way she opened up crying, which is part of the script. Stephanie human. Oh its scripted. Yes. Its part of the clinton script. Dont you guys know anything yet . Part of the skriment was her illness and concussion and when that got proved wrong, it had to be her emotions are part of the script. Stephanie karl you are good when you can fake a blood clot you are a very accomplishes actress, apparently. This is just vintage limbaugh and what they think of the clintons, and we have got to get used to it. Because when hilary is going to run to be our next president , this is what were going to see day in and day out. Stephanie yeah. Interesting just as she is leaving and any speculation is starting with 2016 of course thats what it is all about. Republicans are baffled by genuine emotion. She is crying because a friend of hers is killed. All rush has to think about is what it was like when they took his pain medication away. Stephanie thats right. Kids do you know the pictures we have oh. Stephanie just from the inauguration, right . Right. Stephanie my mom is like oh dear are you hugs the Vice President , how did the secret service allow that . Im like i dont know. I think they make an exception for the girls. And Newt Gingrich. Stephanie right. And who wants to lose that. Easily recover all of the files, boom they are back from the cloud. So affordable just 59 a year and since everything is up there in the cloud, you can access them from anywhere. And that is a cloud that even john mccain wouldnt yell at. Stephanie right. Give me my files back go to carbonite. Com, do it now. Carbonite. Com, offer code stephanie. Karl frisch more rightwing world next on the Stephanie Miller show. Announcer call stephanie now, she is easy. 1800steph12. vo brought to you by lysol. A mission for health. I think the number one thing that viewers like about the young turks is that were honest. They can question whether im right, but i think that the audience gets that this guy, to the best of his ability, is trying to look out for us. Woohoo, yeah when im sitting home head down all alone i dont need no phone, i need announcer Stephanie Miller. Stephanie huhuh. It is the Stephanie Miller show. 1800steph12 the phone number toll free from anywhere. I was just jamming an airport sandwich down my gullett. Good morning karl frisch. Good morning. What do you think mitt romney was doing during the inauguration . Rocking in the fetal position. Sounds good to me. Stephanie all right. Yeah, i thought that was you know poor loser. Im just saying i know everyone is like he is not an elected person but george bush wasnt there either. Its just unprecedented this disrespect for the office. Certainly for the romneys, i think george bush is ill and his kids should be able to spend as much time as possible with him. Stephanie yeah. Four years ago when the republicans sat in a room on the night of barack obama inauguration, planning on how to destroy his presidency. Stephanie yes. And anybody thought they were taking a break from that plan stephanie dont you love that mcconnell said the inauguration speech was a lot of liberalism. To a country we still believe is center right. Oh, okay. You continue to believe whatever you want to believe and romney is going to win in november. I dont know who their pollster is, but they need to hire a new one. And 95 of it was perfectly main stream. This country is center left, and the sooner the Republican Party gets wise to it, the better for them. Stephanie yes, and on each and every issue, americans agree with him, so if that is center right the rightwing antigays came out with tweets saying gay people have all of the rights that everybody else has. Thats how delusional they are. Stephanie right. Here is bill oreilly. Not one democrat asks mrs. Clinton a tough question. Come on, thats appalling. Mrs. Clinton doesnt really have to worry much about libya. Its clear americans are not holding her accountable. 59 of americans approve of secretary clintons performance, just 29 disapprove. So clearly the folks think she has been effective running the state department. Because she has. Stephanie right. Moron. Stephanie since she stands by the findings nearly 60 of the country believes in gravity. This is the scandal that just wouldnt for them. To borrow a phrase from political eons before there is no there there. If you want to know one of the reasons that so many countries around the world now view america in a positive light, it is because of this president and the secretary of state. Stephanie absolutely. Here is the fox pop psychologist, dr. Keith ablow. I think its ablow. Stephanie oh, yes. The solution runs psychologically in the direction of disempowering individual every single time. The autonomy of others did him no favors when he was abandoned again and again by people who were, quote unquote, responsible and supposed to do the right thing like his parents. What good did the autonomy do me . The reason the president gravitates towards taking guns and not restoring the Mental Health care system is because those two things are diametrically opposed. Blah, blah, blah. I read somewhere that he is considering running for office. That massachusetts. Stephanie i love to see him debate somebody that is all pop psychologist. You are just saying that because of your daddy issues arent you. I could collect a fortune just talking him through his problems if he laid down on the couch. This is a perfect example of what a fox news sellout is. Somebody who goes on and parrots whatever they think the fox news audience wants. Stephanie oh, by the way, brian kilmeade. You dont believe in the 98 of the climateologist you mean the corrupt ones . 98 of how do they make their living climateologist . Everyone in their industry has to be addressed. For anyone to think it is settled science is a huge leap. If a scientist is looking to make money, being a climate scientist, there is a lot better money exactly. Stephanie karl frisch you are delightful on the phone and in person. And i miss you already. I miss you too. Stephanie give dexter a kiss and cut an extra coat on. Twentynine minutes after the hour, representative john yarmuth next on the Stephanie Miller show. Premiere event. It doesnt get anymore real than this. vo currents Award Winning original series is back with an all new episode straight from the headlines. vo in the minefield of the nations gun control debate, this could be the most polarizing issue. Anybody can claim stand your ground and they could get away with murder. Announcer Stephanie Miller. Discrete and efficient. Not to mention classy. [ laughter ] stephanie yeah. It is the Stephanie Miller show. Welcome to it. Thirtyfour minutes after the hour. 1800steph12 the phone number toll free from anywhere. You know what of all of the Congress Critters we go to mingle with in washington, d. C. One of our favorite john yarmuth, where were you . Where was i . He was probably busy. Stephanie yeah. Caught in traffic. Were never really busy. This is another one of those crazy weeks where we worked essentially a day and a half and were back in our districts now. Stephanie yeah. Yeah. Yeah. We were laughing because we saw congressman grayson, and he is like i cant stay out late because i have a hilary hearing in the morning. And im like whatever name dropper. But as i expected she did great. I think this was the story line that they were going to get her. House republicans were going to get hilary. And you better come loaded for bare, right . Exactly. I have seen this so many times that members of Congress Take on somebody thinking they know more than they do. The reason they are there as witnesses almost by definition have more knowledge than the members do. Stephanie yeah they were going to use her to build some sort of scandal they have been building since 2008 instead they are left with nothing but empty conspiracy theories. Limbaugh claimed that they were in on a conspiracy because it is part of getting hilary elected in 2016. My god. I people to recall something called on impeachment proceeding. Stephanie yeah. I guess they were part of the conspiracy of her being really smart and prepared and a great secretary of state. Yeah rand paul just said he would have fired her. Stephanie we needed a good punch line, and the if i were president was it. Im glad you are accepting responsibility. I think you accept the culpability for the worst tragedy since 9 11. Had i been president at the time, and i found you did not read the cables from benghazi and ambassador stevens, i would have relieved you from your post. Stephanie wow. He is taking that as an admission of culpability. Certainly it was a tragedy, benghazi was a tragedy but when you put her up there with 9 11 and sandy hook, and aurora and dozens of others that is just hyperbole, and thats what he is known for. I like rand but he just gets a little whacky sometimes. Stephanie yeah a little whacka doodle. John mccain said that Chris Stevens spoke to him directly about needing more security. Did he do something . Pass on the information . Or keep it to himself . Did he bring the information to the state department . That was an odd moment. Right . Excuse me you are the head of the Armed Services committee. Of course. And she raised that point in a very productive way. So clearly this was not anything that was on any members radar screen to appoint d which they actually took action in any way. Stephanie right. So the whole scenario is just an embarrassment, i think. And fortunately i think hilary embarrassed them even more yesterday. Stephanie yeah absolutely. I was hoping she would open with i got your freakin benghazi flu right here. But she is classier than i am. Yeah. This to me was one of the more cowardly moves that republicans have made and the list is growing on a daily basis. If they really wanted to accomplish something first of all they would have said that the pay the pay embargo would have been in effect unless there was a budget agreement adopted by both houses which would have forced them to compromise, now the house can pass any budget it wants, regardless of how extreme it is which is what they are going to do so they get off of the hook and throw it in the senates lap. It puts no pressure on the House Republicans to be to compromise to the slightest extent and all they did was kick the debt ceiling down the road three months. Stephanie yeah, and boehner called his own bluff he said never going to raise it without equal pay cut, and basically he went back on that, and as you said, all he did was kick it down the road for three months. What was the point for him . The point was to look like they had some kind of a win because they knew they were in trouble on the debt ceiling, and then put the pressure on somebody else, namely the senate. But they are going to put forth a budget pretty soon that is really going to be an important contrast for the American People to see. They are going to try to balance the budget in ten years, which you cannot do without slashing medicare and medicaid, and Social Security. So the American People will get, i think, a very good look at the way republicans want to balance the budget and do deficit reduction and the way democrats do. We actually went through this with paul ryans budget which was so egregious the leader of his party had to back away from it in the campaign. Stephanie yeah, it was seen as sort of a slap at the senate but they are calling it the no budget, no pay idea. It has been regarded by a lot of people as a gimmick. Here they go. Its a new way to play some sort of partisan games right . Exactly. And it doesnt guarantee that there will be a compromised budget agreement between the house and senate. They can pass one, just as the house can pass one. And thats why it made no sense. They tried to play gotcha with democratic members, because no matter how bad the legislation was, the no budget, no pay is a fairly pop idea. Stephanie im reading a story about it, i mean most adults would prefer a longterm solution. I know you are, but what am i . Yeah. Keith elson said to the caucus yesterday, we swear an oath to protect the constitution and to do our job. The idea that we have to basically blackmail ourselves into doing our job is so insulting. Stephanie yeah. Boehner said were not going to raise taxes on the American People, blah, blah blah. Here we go again. I saw an interesting thing in the New York Times yesterday. This is not enough revenue to you know the president what we got in the last fiscal cliff, right . Yeah, 700 billion over ten years. Stephanie but the point is and we can say it over and over people do not want the safety nets cut. This this piece said citizens of other advanced nations appear to agree it is worth the price. Americans have been more hostile toward taxation than other countries. Theres pew poll almost two to one it was more important to avoid cuts in Social Security payments, and this for everybody. 74 of american oppose shorter days or more crowded classrooms. Clearly americans value government services. We may welcome an opportunity to save them. What do you think about all of that . I think its very accurate. The American People basically want to do everything they want to eat everything drink everything they want to drink, smoke everything they want to smoke, and then get Perfect Health care and not pay for it. Thats human nature but what it indicates very clearly is the American People truly value these social safety net programs. They think they are an important government priority and they dont want them changed in any dramatic way and thats what the president said that was so important, he talked about what peoples expectations of the federal government are and thats a discussion we need to have. Not how much can we cut and spend, its what do we want the government to do and then figure out how to get it done. I hope we do that as we go through these next three crisises. Stephanie thats how we screwed up california, do everyone want free unicorns . Yes, do you want to pay more on your water bill . No. Congressman thank you so much. Im sorry i missed you in dc. Stephanie ill see you for hilaries inauguration. There we goes john yarmuth. Well be right back on the Stephanie Miller show. Announcer theres something funny going on in talk radio. Its the Stephanie Miller show. Instead of corn, youve got dope. vo but what is legal and what is criminal . This is, no matter what you do, a violation of federal law. vo follow real farmers staking their claim on a new frontier. Lots of terrible things happen to people growing marijuana. This crop to me is my livelihood. I have everything invested in this. Only on current tv. Desmond tutu said a quote that is one of my favorite quotes. We are tied together in a web of humanity. I am a person only through you. I can only be a person only through you. That really resonates me and drives my work. The world is becoming an incredibly connected place. Mobile phones are really driving that connection. At kiva, we run an internet marketplace. People can lend to other people for the purpose of starting a or a variety of other good causes. You can go to kiva. Org and you can see pictures and profiles of people from over sixty countries all across the world. You can lend them as little as 25. If they are successful, they will pay you back. Dear rixi, youre a honduran immagrant. Youre coming to the us, you have an idea to start, you know, a womens cosmetics store or a clothing store. Youre going to need a lot of things, ya know, to pay the rent, permits inventory, advertising, marketing so that adds up quite a bit. Youre going to need tens of thousands of dollars to start a small busines. There is ten millionplus people completely left out of the formal finical system. Banks dont lend to people like that at all. There is a lot of opportunity to decrease unemployment, provide employment, provide Economic Opportunity and raise our standard of living by investing in small business. Our hearts are an incredibly powerful thing. Good technology can help amplify this power and create an incredibly powerful force that can spread to every country in the world. These talking points, that the right have, about the heavy hand of government. I want to have that conversation. Really . You know id like to arm our viewers with the ability to argue with their conservative uncle joe over the dinner table. I heard that announcer Stephanie Miller. Talking like that getting everybody started up because i aint no holla back girl thats not what i heard. Stephanie it is the Stephanie Miller show. Welcome to it. 1800steph12 the phone number toll free from anywhere. Wow wee, what a week we have had. [ applause ] i know, right . Stephanie right . I wasnt here yesterday because i was taking my 90yearold republican mom out for her birthday. Stephanie and you were. Drunk. Stephanie and momma had a couple of vodka martinas. And she is not a large woman. Stephanie we were partying it up in charlotte last night. At the red lobster . Stephanie no. Chris in atlanta writes momma i almost spit out my coffee yesterday on my laptop upon seeing the photo with you and Newt Gingrich, with the caption ermahgerd, and i thought it said engaged. Stephanie when i posted it, i did say ermahgerd. Stephanie that is the best example i have had in recent times why america is a great country. I just watched president obama get reinaugurated. Got on the plane, and saw Newt Gingrich and callista in coach. Oh, its a great country. The president on air force one. Hi, newt . [ wah wah ] callista i think is one of the moons of saturday so maybe she skipped mars and added back to her home there you go. Stephanie right. Anyway, monday night was the big we posted those pictures right . I cant even remember now. It is a little bit of a blur. We went to the Human Rights Campaign ball which was awesome. Got to meet cory booker. Which there is a goofy picture of him. Im always skittish to post things of you Stephanie Tammy baldwin did you post that one . Yes i did. Because if you send it to me that means i have photo approval. Unless you are drunk well she was pretty much drunk all weekend. There is a picture of i think you, me, and aisha that is really good. There are no bad pictures of aisha. Stephanie Chris Matthews was at the human rights thing, and julie writes steph, Chris Matthews this is the weird story. It came out there on the news. Except it came out louder when he said it. Stephanie right. Hi steph during the live edition of hard ball, Chris Matthews were talking about the significance of reelecting its first black president. And chris brought up what a big deal it was to elect its first Roman Catholic and i had that conversation with him, and he said it on the show. And guess what else happened they asked me to come on hard ball last night. And i couldnt [ wah wah ] you were at the party with him. Stephanie yes. And did he say you are gay stephanie no, that was the last event. I was standing there with my then girlfriend and he screams out are you gay . And im like yes. This is a gay event everybody is gay. You know speaking of things that could happen because magic can always happen on the Stephanie Miller show. [ magic wand ] stephanie you know what could happen in hour number three . What . Stephanie judy tenuta could come in live. It could happen. [ applause ] right there. Stephanie kevin in d. C. Who i had a very public you have shoved tongue down his throat. I tell you what. Hello, kevin. Caller god you drive me crazy. Caller swapping spit with Stephanie Miller is a religious experience. You allowed me to go where no man has gone before since the 90s. [ laughter ] caller and it is always surreal meeting you because its all with you and 200 of your other fans. Stephanie yes, but we had a nice little snuggle, didnt we . Caller yes and what do the kids say omg, you were gorgeous. Stephanie oh. As i was holding you very close, i was saying that i thought of you when we did the Subway Sandwich story about the guy whos foot long was only 11 inches, and i said thats kevin just taking out the first section. [ circus music ] caller you are lucky 20yearold kevin lets just say we both would have had to change our pants. Stephanie all right. Now byebye. Time to turn on the hose. All right. Lets go to josh in memphis, welcome. Caller how are you doing miss miller. Stephanie hello. Caller mine is on the women being allowed in combat. Stephanie uhhuh. Caller from everything i have read from past civilizations the reason that women have never worked in combat has nothing to do with the fact that women cant fight hard. What it is is that men cant make the hard decision when women are concerned. Like, you know stephanie really . In the middle of the fire fight you are still thinking with the little head is what your point is . Caller its 50 or 100,000 years of evolution telling us were supposed to protect the female of the species. The captain saying hey, dont charge in there to save her, doesnt always happen stephanie its the damsel in distress argument. All women are whising flowers . Caller no. Stephanie josh you know what the perfect argument against that argument are these guys jim and chris, they would probably shove me in the way of danger. [ bell chimes ] [ applause ] stephanie how long have you two known each other. Have you ever done anything protective . Oh god know. Stephanie jim would use me as a human shield. You wouldnt make a very good human shield. I think you would cover one of my pecks. Let me get this piece of bamboo. Yeah. To shield me from fire power. Stephanie oh need a bigger human shield. Fiftyeight minutes after the [ theme music ] stephanie hello current tv land. Hour number 2. Jacki schechner, bff. Good morning. Stephanie dont you miss me so much after spending almost every waking moment with me for days and days. I do miss you. I actually havent even unpacked yet. Stephanie right. It was like winter cab. You have an entire suitcase filled with stuff, because it was so chilly that you had to bring layers and layers. Its not like going to miami, when its like a bikini and a flip flop. Stephanie yeah, i was saying i dont understand the concept of living back east if you have a choice. Yeah, you forget how chilly it gets. My heart goes out to those who have chosen to live in the northeast or midwest. Stephanie yes, i know all indian words for im freezing my [ censor bleep ] off. Here she is Jacki Schechner. Good morning, everybody. Leon panetta will announce he is lifting the ban of women in combat. Pentagon reporters say the policy shift is just semantics a reflection rather of what is already happening on the ground. Women have been serving alongside their male counterparts in danger zones for years. The exclusion policy prohibits women from serving directly in combat, but there have been 152 female troops killed in what are defined as quote, support roles in iraq and afghanistan. Now there are 250,000 jobs open to women that werent open before. There may still be some positions that the military considers inappropriate for women, and the officials have until january 2016 to carve out her to exceptions. 14 of our american tear personnel are women. And north korea plans to bring out more missiles samed at the us. They are reacting to a sanction against them. North korea often issued these kind of threats, but doesnt have the technology to carry them out at this point. Were back after the break. The headlines. vo in the minefield of the nations gun control debate, this could be the most polarizing issue. Anybody can claim stand your ground and they could get away with murder. But when joint pain and stiffness from Psoriatic Arthritis hit even the smallest things became difficult. I finally understood what serious joint pain is like. I talked to my rheumatologist and he prescribed enbrel. Enbrel can help relieve pain, stiffness, and stop joint damage. Because enbrel, etanercept suppresses your immune system, it may lower your ability to fight infections. Serious, sometimes fatal events including infections tuberculosis lymphoma, other cancers, and nervous system and Blood Disorders have occurred. Before starting enbrel your doctor should test you for tuberculosis and discuss whether youve been to a region where certain fungal infections are common. Dont start enbrel if you have an infection like the flu. Tell your doctor if youre prone to infections, have cuts or sores have had hepatitis b have been treated for heart failure, or if, while on enbrel, you experience persistent fever, bruising, bleeding, or paleness. [ phil ] get back to the things that matter most. Ask your rheumatologist if enbrel is right for you. [ doctor ] enbrel, the number one biologic medicine prescribed by rheumatologists.

I talked about talk radio to him ed schultz and i he is like never forget a beautiful woman im like oh my god you are charming oh my god stephanie ermahgerd steph i listen to your show every day using my steph app. I laughed as your story of meeting vice President Biden and jackis lack of ninja skills to get to meet the veep.

Anyone would be thrilled. Somebody told me he wouldnt chase after dick cheney like that. Well, the worth guy he is not ted coppel. Stephanie right. He had a human moment. News busters gets upset at lint. Someone that is a writer for news busters called in yesterday . Stephanie what did he have to say . Hal told a story about how george w. Bush was on the David Letterman program, and during a break like a writer or something i think she was a writer right. She came in and handed David Letterman some papers or something and george w. Bush grabbed a shall that she was wearing a sweater or jacket or something. And wiped his glasses off on her article of clothing. And hal said he wiped his glasses on her skirt. And news busters called it wasnt a skirt gotcha stephanie it is still just as douchy. The Stephanie Miller show in stephanies absence regrets the error. Missing the point entirely. Stephanie exactly.

Maybe hell end joy a show at the same theater also. Really . Stephanie sheila not paying at attention, maybe hell go see a play. Nick beat you to that joke. Wendy i think he needs to go see a play.

Stephanie and scott is the real kind of straggler, will he be going to the theater too [ mocking laughter ] nobody has said that before except for everybody hah hah hah stephanie sibel, i think only americans should use that bible. Thomas was somewhat eloquent. Deal he should probably use the koran [ mocking laughter ] Stephanie James and tammy, surprised he didnt use the koran [ mocking laughter ] that is so much funnier the next time. Stephanie henry, i think its a shame bible used by christian patriot would be used by a muslim [ mocking laughter ] stephanie brandy who said, at least he is using the bible, who cares. The bible has no meaning to him. He is a muslim. He is a fake from kenya [ applause ] all right. Stephanie oh. Wow. God there are a lot of morons in this country.

[ applause ] stephanie someone just called in and said chicks should not serve in the military because men go crazy and damsels in distress. Hunter says semper fy means semper fie. Karen writes the argument that men will protect women contradicts the whole rape in the war problem. I didnt even know about the high rate of women being raped in the military. And well talk about the documentary and have her on. And greg writes arent they less likely to be raped by their opponent than their own. Yeah. I love barbara boxer. Stephanie i know.

Speaking of plucky women, secretary of state Hillary Clinton yesterday. As i have said many times. I take responsibility, and nobody is more committed to getting this right. I am determined to leave the state department and our country, safer, stronger, and more secure. Stephanie we were talking about this earlier. She shot back at republican senator, ron johnson. She is talking about in the heat of fining out literally thats when you are going to try to do detective work when you just found out your friend has been killed anyway. He asked her why she didnt make a simple phone call. She said we had four dead americans what difference does it make . And she didnt mean in general, rightwing world. She meant in that moment. I stood next to president obama as the marines care rid those flagdraped caskets off of the plane at andrews. I put my arms around the mothers and fathers, the sisters and brothers, the sons and daughters. Stephanie that didnt sound like fake emotion to me. Yeah, sean hannity. Stephanie yeah. Talking to you. Well be right back on the Stephanie Miller show. vo as marijuana gains social and legal acceptance, a new pioneer is emerging from the backwoods. Im basically like a farmer. Instead of corn, youve got dope. vo but what is legal and what is criminal . This is, no matter what you do, a violation of federal law. vo follow real farmers staking their claim on a new frontier. Lots of terrible things happen to people growing marijuana. This crop to me is my livelihood. I have everything invested in this. Only on current tv. Announcer Stephanie Miller. Talking to editor of the New York Times cross word look, lets give this party a chance. Stephanie it is the Stephanie Miller show. Welcome to it. Thirtyfour minutes after the hour. 1800steph12 the phone number toll free from anywhere. Ariana was not at the Huffington Post party. Stephanie i did not see her. Stephanie welcome to my ball i just wanted to hear that. It was a little bar and i was like i i got to leave. [ laughter ] stephanie i was just showing were also going to post a picture of my moms cassette player to prove that she is as technologically impaired as i am. She has a cassette player and a little basket of cassettes. What is in the basket of cassettes . Stephanie i dont know. I didnt even want to look. 1800steph12 the phone number toll free from anywhere. [ world news tonight theme ] stephanie Hillary Clinton depends herself under sometimes firey questioning. I would call it more ass haty. You have to give her credit for not laughing out the hilary laugh after rand paul said if i were president [ laughter ] stephanie i wish she would have said dude. Just one word, dude. The most pointed questions came from john mccain who is still bitter after all of these year and rand paul. Lets see. He said mccain said the American People deserve to know answers. The answers given to the American People blah blah were false. They were contradicted by the classified information which was kept out of rices report. How many times can one say she went out with the information she was given. And what does that have to do with hilary. Stephanie exactly. I participated in a secure Video Conference of senior officials from the intelligence community, the white house, and dod, we were reviewing all that was available to us any actions we could take. And mccain said if i were president dammit dammit dammit sounds like she was on it all night long. Stephanie yeah. She said i understand your strong feelings you knew chris, but we just have a disagreement about what happened how it happened and when it happened. Its not the policy its not the policy stephanie and we just played before the break people can judge for themselves did that look like manufactured emotion . No. Stephanie the way they described it in rightwing world. Its not a matter of policy its personal. And again, as we played the very first clip, she took responsibility right off of the top. She asked for the report and stood by the recommendations. She said it meant moving quickly to respond to the immediate crisis, and it meant launching an independent investigation to determine exactly what happened in benghazi. Anyway, so clinton also said she was not involved in the selection of rice to speak on the sunday talk show. She said it was clear that heavily armed people attacked our compound. I personally was not focused on talking points. I was focused on keeping our people safe, she said. Secretary clinton again yesterday. I spoke with president obama later in the evening to bring him up to date to hear his perspective. Obviously, we kept talking with everyone during the night, early in the morning. On the 12th i spoke with general dempsey and again with tom donlin. Stephanie she says no delays in Decision Making and i want to echo the review boards praise for the valor of the people on the ground and the board said our response saved american lives in real time and it did. She said she immediately ordered a view of security procedures and stood with president obama the next morning when he referred to the act as an about of terror. Which he did, mitt. Uhhuh. Stephanie she created a new position in response to the attacks. You know anyway, so i secretary clinton again yesterday. I would like to refer to five words for them to reflect on. Iraq weapons of mass destruction. Stephanie thank you, dick durbin. Were we told there were iraqi weapons of mass destruction that justified a war. The invasion of the united states. We are still searching for their weapons. Stephanie yeah, and how many thousands of people died because of that . Hundreds of thousands. Stephanie yes. Thank you. And here is senator ron johnson. You disagree with me that a simple phone call to those evacuees wouldnt have ascertained immediately that there was no protest. With all due respect the fact is we had four dead americans was it because of a protest or guys out for a walk one night who decided to go kill some americans. What difference at this point does it make . Stephanie thank you. But but but but if i was oh never mind. Stephanie right. Okay. Grafrpy mccain yesterday. There are many questions that are unanswered. And the answers, frankly that you have given this morning are not satisfactory to me. Dammit dammit dammit Stephanie John mccain again yesterday. The American People deserve to know answers and they certainly dont deserve false answers. And the answers that were given to the American People on september 15th by the ambassador of the United Nations were false. [ sighs ] stephanie there was just it was so much just like sputtering. There is no there there. Yeah. And they have asked all of these questions before, and the state department has answered them. They are just trying to get at obama. Who is once again president. Shut up. Stephanie i think its worth hearing again. The punch line of the benghazi hearing. Here is senator rand. Im glad you are accepting responsibility. I think you september the cullablety for the worst tragedy since 9 1 1, and i really mean that. Had i been president , and i found out you did not read the cables, i would have relieved you of your post. [ sighs ] stephanie you are not the president [ circus music ] you are never going to be the president. So lets not live in hypothetical land. Stephanie by the way yes . If i were living in hypothetical land i may be president. Stephanie talking points memo brings us this fun fact. In its own Budget Proposal in 2011, called for a 20 billion cut to the state department. It takes a lot of nerve to rip the secretary over the decisions made on how and where to deploy Security Forces while you yourself have called for slashing the budget by nearly half. Thank you. There would be no security if rand paul had his way. This next sound bite is the strangest from yesterday. Is the u. S. Involved with any procuring of weapons transferring of weapons to turkey out of libya . To turkey . [ laughter ] i will have to take that question for the record. Nobody has ever raised that with me. It has been in news reports that ships have been leaving from libya, and that they may have weapons. Which news report . Fox nation online. Thats their whacko farright conspiracy site. Stephanie that was worth it just for the tone of her voice. Turkey . And what is that on your head. Say the thing again about if i were president. Hah hah [ laughter ] stephanie what did it take for her not to unleash that laughter. [ laughter ] stephanie had i been president. [ laughter ] stephanie okay. Turkey . Turkey . [ laughter ] stephanie have you ever injured yourself eating pudding with a rubber spoon, senator . Jerry in detroit. Hi jerry. Caller hey greetings from motown, mama. Stephanie hello, baby. Caller you know what Hillary Clinton should have said to that jerk, rand paul i dont know about you, but at least youll never be president. Stephanie yeah exactly. Exactly. Ill probably be president in 2016. You will still be a bad senator with a bad tribl on your head. We need to isolate that turkey because that could be a bad lunch joke too. Senator would you like turkey . Turkey . No, ham. Go ahead you are on the Stephanie Miller show. Caller hello. Something that has been going on has been the change in Electoral College votes in the state legislatures, including, michigan, wisconsin, and pennsylvania. They want to change that. And it seems like they are trying to sneak things through with all of the focus on benghazi, the inauguration, and gun control, and that really concerns me. Stephanie i thought the president that was a brush back pitch about standing in long lines to vote. And we were saying this story i mean republicans literally put out a memo bragging about stealing the house from democrats. Yeah. Stephanie i mean what is mitch talking about. We still believe we are a center right country. Okay dorkus, no one else does. They know that this gerrymandering stuff is the only thing saving them. This Midterm Election is going to be the most important one i have seen, i think coming up, in terms can the president actually what will his legacy be and can he get everything done . And democrats need to show up and vote. Stephanie yes. 46 minutes after the hour, right back on the Stephanie Miller show. Wow, yes, yes, i love it. Announcer its the Stephanie Miller show. Ground and they could get away with murder. From silver screens. To flat screens. Twizzlerize your entertainment everyday with twizzlers the twist you cant resist. I think the number one thing that viewers like about the young turks is that were honest. They can question whether im right, but i think that the audience gets that this guy, to the best of his ability, is trying to look out for us. Announcer Stephanie Miller. This band is going to play my tune strike it up turkey . Dance stephanie oh i love it. Turkey . No you are the turkey. Stephanie rand paul you are ash idiot. Turkey . Stephanie yes, indeed. This hour brought to you by go to meeting. You can even present by your ipad now. Woe. Stephanie okay. Why are you suddenly turn going johnny glibbing . Stephanie i dont know it makes me excited. 1800steph12 the phone number toll free from anywhere. Lets go to cally in ohio. Caller hi. Stephanie hi. Go ahead. Caller hey a little while ago somebody was mentioning about the women serving next to the men in military in combat and it brought back memories of the predont ask dont tell era. Stephanie right. Caller when the soldiers were adamantly opposed to fighting next to gay men because they thought that they would be ogled at, and made passes at and what not and it seems to be a horrible double standard on their part and im hoping i can make you understand this better than the gentlemen who answered the phone. Stephanie right, tee bone. Caller those seem to be making such a fuss about fighting next to women, but when it comes to fighting next to men stephanie yeah, we all know during a fire fight is when everybody starts becoming really frisky. Yeah. Stephanie right . Dont with a turkey. Turkey . Stephanie just saying speaking of which would you like some orange boner with your turkey. It is pretty simple. There shall be no longterm increte in the debt limit until there is a Long Term Plan to reduce the debt. Stephanie he is being a little drama queenie, isnt he . Put us in an active volcano stephanie they dont need any help. All the president needs to do is stand back. Hey john, you have got this. Stephanie right. Representative chris van holland. There is a political effort simply to increase their negotiating strategy leveraged three months from now at the expense of jobs in the economy. Stephanie thank you. Can down the road for three months. Nancy pelosi yesterday. It is a gimmick unworthy of the fiscal and economic challenges that we face. This proposal does not have certaintive. It does not have growth. And it does not have my support. Here as they would say in parliament. [ world news tonight theme ] stephanie speaking of awesome women, Debbie Wasserman schultz unanimously reelected as chairman of the dnc. [ patriotic music ] stephanie she said were going to fight tooth and nail to stop people from trying to tear down our president , this Democratic Party will stand and fight. [ applause ] stephanie fight fight fight she can get people fired up i tell you what. Because it made all of the right people mad. [ laughter ] stephanie obviously gun control will be one of the first issues up. [ world news tonight theme ] stephanie like clock work, jim. Texas republicans call for more guns in schools following shooting at loan star college. The nation experienced its 49th shooting when an altercation between at least two individuals set off gunfire. So clearly they need more guns. Stephanie right. Texas one of 49 states with a concealed carry law. State lawmakers have introduced legislation that allows College Staff and students to carry weapons on school grounds. Firearms are currently prohibited on campus. Now Top Republican lawmakers including governor perry used tuesdays incident to call for more weapons on campus. Loan star already employs Armed Police Officers on the cam pass. [ applause ] who will be shot by yahoos. Stephanie right. And it sounds like some sort of dispute stop chopping up my paper. Stephanie exactly. My point. Thats coming in texas apparently. Stephanie dale in arkansas. Hello, dale. Caller hello, stephanie. I sat and listened to the inauguration and everything, and the one black lady that got up and gave the pledge stephanie uhhuh. Caller hurt my gut real bad being a military man ex retired. Stephanie why is that . Caller she said under god to me i feel maybe she ought to go to another country. We were born under the influence of the workings of god stephanie i hadnt heard anything about this. She did leave out under god. Caller when she got up there she said one nation indivisible which is how the pledge of allegiance was originally written. The under god was added in the 50s, quite late. Caller thats true. But we still lived under that. Of course i was in the military in the 50s. Stephanie we have atheists that live here too, you know . Caller right. But real quick there was a real good article in the arkansas democrat talking about using an ar15 to get rid of the pigs and everything stephanie the pigs and everything. Sorry were out of time. Judy tenuta live in studio next hour. It could happen. Turkey . [ theme music ] stephanie all right. Current television, hour number 3.

Stephanie how were max and fred when you got home . Stephanie they were handsome and romantic. Did they miss you terribly stephanie no they kind of like tee bone better. Its because his name is bone. Stephanie yeah. He did a good job taking care of them. And he sent me a delightful picture of fred frenching his ear. Most action any of us have gotten in a while, huh . Stephanie yeah better than we did in dc. Good morning, everybody. Senator john kerrys hearings for secretary of state are now underway. Hillary clinton is making her second appearance before the committee in as many days. Clinton saying that senator kerry is the right choice. John has built strong relationships with leaders in governments here and around the world, and he has experience in representing our country in fragile and unpredictable circumstances. Also on the hill today, senator Diane Feinstein and new york representative Carolyn Murphy are introducing an assault weapons ban. Sources say props will include a bush master rifle, which is one of the weapons used in the shooting in nowtown, connecticut. The members of congress have cooperated fully with police. It would stop the sale importation and manufacturing of more than 150 types of guns and place a limit on highcapacity magazines. Guns and magazines owned before the ban will be grandfathered in, but kept track of through a national registry. Well be back with more stephanie after the break. Stay with us. vo currents Award Winning original series is back with an all new episode straight from the headlines. vo in the minefield of the nations gun control debate, this could be the most polarizing issue. Anybody can claim stand your ground and they could get away with murder. But when joint pain and stiffness from Psoriatic Arthritis hit even the smallest things became difficult. I finally understood what serious joint pain is like. I talked to my rheumatologist and he prescribed enbrel. Enbrel can help relieve pain, stiffness, and stop joint damage. Because enbrel, etanercept suppresses your immune system, it may lower your ability to fight infections. Serious, sometimes fatal events including infections tuberculosis lymphoma, other cancers, and nervous system and Blood Disorders have occurred. Before starting enbrel your doctor should test you for tuberculosis and discuss whether youve been to a region where certain fungal infections are common. Dont start enbrel if you have an infection like the flu. Tell your doctor if youre prone to infections, have cuts or sores have had hepatitis b have been treated for heart failure, or if, while on enbrel, you experience persistent fever, bruising, bleeding, or paleness. [ phil ] get back to the things that matter most. Ask your rheumatologist if enbrel is right for you. [ doctor ] enbrel, the number one biologic medicine prescribed by rheumatologists.

These talking points, that the right have, about the heavy hand of government. I want to have that conversation. Really . You know id like to arm our viewers with the ability to argue with their conservative uncle joe over the dinner table. Announcer Stephanie Miller. [ inaudible ] that is exactly what Melissa Fitzgerald said to me on stage. Hillary clinton turkey . [ laughter ] stephanie it is the Stephanie Miller show. Twentythree minutes after the hour. Okay, kate walsh. Thats better than what i stephanie no. I just met her she is gorgeous. She is gorgeous. It could happen. You would be here. With enough surgery. I usually get earnest borgnine. They say arent you the one that did the earnest borgnine beauty cream . Toba. And now im on the roof top singing you know those pig republicans were spreading the rumor hilary had the blood clot so she couldnt testify. And when she came out the next day she had sunglasses on and i heard glen beck or one of them i get them all confused. Stephanie right. And they were saying that oh, i think she was getting plastic surgery. Stephanie oh, sure. Oh, yeah right. It really looks like and even when they knew she had been in the hospital for a blood clot. Oh, she is faking it. Stephanie yeah, what a bunch of crap. Im glad to see you are feeling better secretary clinton. No you are not. You were the one saying the benghazi flu. She looks great in a green. I love it. Stephanie we have been enjoying the top 25 crazy obama comments after the inauguration after a Television State posted that he took the oath on the lincoln bible. Yes. Stephanie it started with a lot of wishes for his assassination. Whatever oh. Stephanie we move on to james. I dont think a person that believes in the same methods that believes as lennen did deserves to put his hands on lincolns bible. I would laugh if the bible burned when he touched it. [ circus music ] stephanie due to the he put his own puppy on his own jet. He went to the university of las vegas. Stephanie put his own puppy on his own jet what . What does that even mean . I love it when illiterates write in. He thinks he is so fancy he has a plane. Stephanie did you know that hitler was voted in by the people by 98 . People voted him in idiots. Sit back and watch. Stupid moron. And lets go back to the inauguration. Why do they keep bugging about beyonce. Stephanie oh, yes. I was going to ask you we were saying so what if she did. Here is what i say right . If you know you have to sing at the inauguration in front of a million people, not to mention how many millions around the world and by the way i have seen her in concert, she is magnificent. Its not somebody else used the voice like in my fair lady . Stephanie yeah. They were saying she didnt have time to rehearse necessarily with the marine men. We have too many reality shows. They want people to make mistakes, and trip and fall and she was fantastic. Stephanie yeah. But i guess we still dont even know whether she did or not and who cares. I dont care. I think there might have been a track and she said anything about it . No, but who cares. It is still her voice. Stephanie and you know why we support her . Because were one of the Single Ladies. All the Single Ladies all the Single Ladies i love it party party stephanie had to do that . Barbara in florida is pro bang. Oh, good. Caller hi, i was calling im so glad i got through. I love this show. I love everybody on this show. Stephanie thank you. Caller but i want to disagree about the bangs. Stephanie you like the bangs . Michelle obamas bangs . Caller i love them. But i love the show, and you are right, leave beyonce alone. Stephanie right, you are lucky she even performed for your bastards. And she was gorgeous. Stephanie Michelle Obama has such a gorgeous face i want to see more of it. Like i think the eye roll would have been even clearer after John Boehners comments. Caller the eye rolling was great. And i love you guys, and please keep it up. Stephanie thank you. Caller i watch you every day. Stephanie thank you very much, honey. Leave her alone you are lucky she even performed for you bastards stephanie boner says he has no idea what he said. It was classic. Classic. Whatever he says you have to roll your eyes. Stephanie yeah. And im just waiting for him to start crying again. Remember when he was crying stephanie remember when . When wasnt he. I had to work in a tavern [ sobbing ] stephanie twentynine minutes after the hour, right back on the Stephanie Miller show. vo as marijuana gains social and legal acceptance, a new pioneer is emerging from the backwoods. Im basically like a farmer. Instead of corn, youve got dope. vo but what is legal and what is criminal . This is, no matter what you do, a violation of federal law. vo follow real farmers staking their claim on a new frontier. Lots of terrible things happen to people growing marijuana. This crop to me is my livelihood. I have everything invested in this. Only on current tv. Its like announcer Stephanie Miller. Used to be you couldnt say crap and now they let that slide, and we can say whatever we want. Douche bag, ass hat. Anal rot. Exactly. Stephanie alec baldwin didnt take it to the show he got caught in traffic, which everybody does. Except when i was with congressman grayson, because he had a special laminate. They get to through barricades. And that helped. Stephanie right . Totally. Judy tenuta is here. Oooooooooh. Being at the inauguration has got to be even more exciting than being at these bozo awards show. Why is it that an actress always has to mention oh, by the way, i really have to suffer, im bipolar. I just want to say excuse me. Isnt that a requirement . You have to be bipolar to be a good actress. You know . Why dont you tell us something we dont know. Stephanie lets go back to the comment section. Oh, lord. [ circus music ] stephanie its awesome. By the way, chris you reported this yesterday that they hired a lipreading expert, and john boner said what . He made a joke to obama about whether he had a cigarette or not before the luncheon, or does someone here not let ya. And he tapped michelle on the shoulder. Stephanie yeah. I want to hear john boners wife talk. Does she talk like this too . Stephanie jennifer writes he is not worthy obama equal hitler. Russell he needs to use the one hitler used. Y political figure they know is hitler. So they use tight reference everybody. Stephanie thats right. Tinker red, cant compare obama to president lincoln, more like obama and hitler. Obama has not done mass genocide yet but he will, give him time. Read your history books on hitler, you will see obama is doing everything that hitler did. Then he says if obama really knows his history, he wouldnt be using the bible by lincoln. Lincoln had slaves too. [ buzzer ] he is thinking of thomas jefferson. Computer says no hitler was our first president and he had slaves [ laughter ] herp derp. Stephanie the rightwing is going crazy, because for the first time the president used the word gay. Right. And they were just saying oh my god, yes, it was like he was like a communist, the way he was giving his inaugural address. Stephanie take a listen to American Family radio. I believe in equality of the law for homosexuals just like i do for everybody else. However, homosexuals do not have a constitutional right to engage in sodomy. Stephanie huh . They do not have a constitutional right to make whatever sexual choices they
