and he says that there is a distinct difference in the sense that it's not extortion in this case but why? because it's an obvious payoff -- eric: gretchen at this point who cares. two other granted. probably -- gloria al red came out in the post i never spoke to tiger before. tiger flew her over to australia during a golf tournament. if i'm tiger, out. i have her, i have her, i have her. get it over with. move on. steve: i made a whole bunch of mistakes but i'm in constant -- now aapparently there is a report out that he is in marriage counseling. there is somebody who is at his house a couple times a day now where they are doing that. on the flip side of he is buying her silence story. there is a brand new story this morning on tmz that says she is not taking any money. she walked away from it and apparently she just wants to disappear for a little while. she says it has to do with fear and secrets. she knows a lot of secrets about his marriage, about other women. at the same time, they say that she is scared for her safety, sources do, because she knows specifics. she doesn't fear tiger. she fears all the other people caught in a very large net. that goes to your point. eric: there may be more. she may be one -- there is tiger. there is the guy from bones. there is a few others. she may be at the center -- gretchen: other disturbing story other reports out now that he is in negotiations with his wife to stay in the marriage by paying her millions of dollars. to me that's the most sexist thing i have ever hard in my life. first of all i don't even believe it's true. she would walked away with gazillion ifs she divorced him. why would she accept $5 million to stay in the marriage two more years? it's a sexist play. steve: i don't know about that apparently there are people who do these reupnups. she is being offered 5-million-dollar resigning bonus. she has a reit's nup with him. gretchen: that's worse than what happened to her in this marriage, to me. steve: if you are her,. gretchen: she already h. has can a zillions. brian. eric: she could have 1506789 michael jordan situation $160 million. bottom line it's all about the money. gretchen: i would say in that situation, you know what? let's work on our marriage, forget the money. let's work on our marriage and see if we can work this thing out. money muddies the whole thing. steve: gretch, she is obviously really mad at him. gretchen: money is not going to change what he did. steve: maybe -- absolutely not. it's going to keep her around, maybe. eric: if she stays will you agree it's all about the money? gretchen: it's true. i'm saying that's what is troubling to me today that i think it's sexist. and i think that this whole thing has nothing to do with money. eric: but if she stays it's not sexist, agreed? gretchen: probably. let's take a look what the neighbor is saying because this story is going on and on. apparently the neighbor is saying that tiger was sleeping? >> was he conscious? unconscious? >> at that point he was snoring. >> he was snoring? >> he was actually snoring. >> did she say anything now. >> no. i mean at this point she was actually very quiet and kind of in shock. >> you can describe any injuries that you saw? >> just the lacerations that were on his lip. >> upper lip or bottom lip? >> i couldn't -- >> you couldn't tell. >> between the two. >> between the two? was there a lot of blood? >> not a lot, not a lot. no. >> would be like if abloody nose or something like that. >> maybe if you might have bitten your lip or something like that. nothing on his shirt. nothing on his hands. i was holding him still at one point and i didn't get any blood on me whatsoever. steve: then he goes on to say that he was absolutely snoring in the middle of the road. and also apparently we're learning that tiger's mother and mother-in-law were in the house at the time that he decided to go for that 2:30 this the -- in the morning drive. gretchen: it's all messy. let's talk about something else that is happening today two. planes around thanksgiving time approaching denver november 23, 7:00 a.m. almost collided in the air. it looked as if they had collided. one was a united express plane. one a frontier airlines plane. and what the heck happened to make this situation get this close to having that many people potentially die? steve: they were within 200 feet separation plus about a mile away from each other. but that's just a couple of section. and so apparently what happened was air traffic controllers put then from tier jet into the same route as united express to line them up for landing. and suddenly because the air traffic controllers had given frontier pilots the wrong heading they were forcing them to make a u-turn putting them in the path of the united express. when that kind of thing happens suddenly all these bells and whistles go off in the cockpit. both pilots immediately took evasive action and steered themselves out of each other's way. eric: you have to wonder how many times this happens. this came out and air traffic controller said it's human air. nothing we can do about it. i have to think it happens every single day in major hubs. i have seen planes that look 1.7 miles away. they will cut underneath small planes. especially with the proliferation of small air. private planes. steve: there is no indication that anybody on board, aside from the pilots knew what happened. none the less the f.a.a. is doing an investigation. off to richmond, virginia, and a fellow has moved into a new house in the last year. 90-year-old retired colonel. he is amazing. there he is right there. 90 years old. he fought in three wars. world war ii, the korean conflict and vietnam. he also has a medal of honor. ever since he got out of the military, every morning he has raised an american flag in front of his house and at sun set he has brought it down. the problem was he has moved into this new neighborhood with one of those homeowners association covenants and rules and all sorts of stuff. and now he has got some problems. gretchen: complex of town houses. so apparently he applied for whatever kind of -- whatever he had to apply for to put up an american flag which on its face seems ridiculous last june. and then the board denied his q he says there has never been a day in my life or a place i have lived in my life that you couldn't fly the american flag. good point except now we live in 2009, almost 2010 where the american flag in america is under assault. eric: these ordinances are met to keep the aesthetic bought. one thing exempt from that should be the flag. steve: before he moved in, he said, look, i would like continue to stall a 21-foot flag pole in front of my house. and the homeowner's association came back and said we have got rules against that you cannot install the flag pole. we have no problem with the flag, they say. but we have a problem with the pole. he put it up none the less. he is a fighter. and now what he really needs is he needs them to grant a provision where he can keep the flag pole. eric: i think he needs judge napolitano. gretchen: we may get him on the case. the homeowner's association says: steve: i have got a message to the homeowner's association down there grant this american hero an exemption. he is a medal of honor winner. he is a special american. he has earned a flag pole in his front yard. eric: i would say he has earned it. i agree 100%. steve: i feel the same way. email us at friends@foxnews.com. gretchen: is the earth getting warmer? a scientist at the center of it all next. eric: guests on "fox & friends" ripping up aarp cards for month because they support the president's health care reform. now senator john mccain wants in on the action. we will explain. steve: it is being called climate gate controversy over leaked email that critics say the science behind global warming may have been exaggerated. next guest says these email are just the tip of the iceberg. eric: author of climate of extremes global warming science they don't want you to know and senior fellow of environmental studies at the cato institute. thanks for joining us. what exactly -- we heard about the stolen emails. >> the hacked. eric: the hacked emails. pretty telling, right, pat? >> it's very bad stuff. the stuff that's really bad is them trying to control what goes into the scientific literature. it's the cannon of science it would be somebody like say mark, john, luke. you can't put that in the bible otherwise we are not going to buy any bibles. steve: in the last 10 years we have heard through the mainstream media there are all these scientists who say that it is man that is causing this global warming. now there are these hacked emailings that show wait a minute some of these scientists who have been saying this all along have been behind the scenes do lewding to put that message out and maybe even doctoring some of the evidence. >> not even some of the scientists. some the big-name scientists were involved in trying to keep people out of the scientific literature. they would talk about if there is ever a freedom of information act request, if they ever find out that's true, i think i will destroy the file, meaning the data file that put together these global warming records. and they talk about all kinds of different things about how anybody's research who they don't agree with is not going to go into the literature. very, very bad stuff. eric: talk about what is at stake tens of billions if not hundreds of billions of dollars especially if we get a cap and trade bill down the road in the next couple of months or so. what is really at stake moneywise. >> the cap and trade is going to cost trillions and trillions of dollars. and, you know, i don't know how much this climate gate is going to influence it, but it's certainly going to probably sway a couple of people on capitol hill and the vote that would come out would be very, very close. steve: this has implications for every person on the planet. >> yes, it does. steve: extraordinarily yesterday barbara boxer is not concerned about what's in those hacked emails. she is just concerned that somebody stole them. she said you call it climate gate. i call it email theft gate. she wants the focus on finding who got the stuff. the whistle blower. >> that would be like somebody going after the person who leaked the pentagon papers. excuse me, it doesn't work that way. the information is out there. it's public. and it's very, very bad. eric: you know, when you think about a crime lab you think about contamination. a medical lab worried about contamination. going into copenhagen next week should we worry about contaminated data? >> well, the whole thing started because wouldn't let loose the climate data that made up these long-term weather records. people had been looking at them. i wrote a book about this. it looks to me that these records are being played with in a funny way. then you find email let's raise temperature 1500 dreadths of a degree to get rid of the blip cooling in the record. we going to do science that way. global policy that will effect everyone's life that way? i don't think so. steve: this is such a big story. >> it's huge. steve: you see nobody really talking about it on the mainstream media aside from fox and internet and talk radio. from the cato institute today, pat michaels we thank you so much for joining us with this very important story. >> you have seen it on "fox & friends." people ripping up their aarp card because the group supports the president's health care reform. now senator john mccain wants in on the action and president obama kicks off his jobs tour this morning in the heart of coal mining country in pennsylvania. up next, two men who know the area very well, congressman joe sestak and pat tombe steve: this is a fox news alert. you are about to look at live pictures of roman polanski's house. there it is right there. it's his shah lay on a hill where is he expected to arrive any minute. the famed film director expected to be moved to his house and he will then be under house arrest. the 76-year-old polanski has been fighting extradition to the united states ever since he admitted to having sex with a 13-year-old girl 0 years ago. none the less, they are going to let him out of jail and he is going to serve time for a little while until they figure out what to do at his house. meanwhile, the president's number two man at the department of justice quitting and some say it's over tensions with boss eric holder. deputy attorney general david ogden announced is he resigning after 10 months on the job. no official comment from justice officials and no word of a replacement. gretch? gretchen: thank you, steve. president obama kicking off white house to main street jobs tour. today in allen town, pennsylvania. what will he need to do to get people oback to work? joining us now, two candidates for pennsylvania senate seat former chairman of the club for growth pat toomey joins us from philadelphia and joining us from washington is congressman joe sestak. good morning, gentlemen. >> good morning, gretchen is this a good thing for you in pennsylvania that president obama is coming there first. >> absolutely. any time you can have the president of the united states come to your state it's a good thing. i hope what he does is make sure that everybody knows that the great recession this past quarter with 3.5% g.d.p. growth has ended. is it still intense out there? absolutely. where do i want his focus? on small businesses. in the last recession, under george bush, 80% of all jobs were created by small business. so i hope he talks about tax incentives, tax cuts for small businesses. i hope he recognizes that in the past eight years under president bush the small business administration's budget was slashed 40%. let's get the small business administration's loans increased. at affordable rates. let's guarantee them up to 98% and 90% there is a lot to be done. gretchen congressman, you are sounding like a republican with tax cuts. pat too maniy, i'm kind of surprised to hear congressman sestak saying that here is what president obama said yesterday, productivity up, markets up, but businesses are skiddish to hire. why do you think they are skiddish to hire? >> there are a number of reasons. first i'm delighted that the president is coming to allen town, pennsylvania. i hope this marks a real shift in the focus of his administration to job growth because it should be item number one. i'm glad to hear joe talk about lowering the tax burden. the problem is that much of the agenda that joe is voting for and that president obama and nancy pelosi and harry reid are promoting raises taxes. the health care bill that they have voted for and is working its way through the senate imposes direct new taxes on workers. this cap and trade legislation dramatically raises the cost of all energy use. they are proposing tax increases on income on wages on capital, on business. this is no way to go. if this is a shift and they are going to come around and realize that we shouldn't impose these new costs. we shouldn't impose new taxes we have got to get spending under control because that's really driving -- ultimately it drives all these increases. hopefully we can make progress. i hope the president will be open. gretchen: do you know about a shift in the obama administration? they are going to stop the spending programs and listen to you? >> well, this is very interesting. because pat, who i have great respect for, sounds almost like appose at a time. back in 2002. he actually let the pay as you go rules go out the window and he, with his vote, let the national debt increase from $4.5 trillion to almost $10 trillion. gretchen: let's keep it about what is happening today which is 10.2 unemployment rate. >> absolutely. without a question. 10.2. if we had not done the economic stimulus bill, and we had not done tarp, we would have been at 12% unemployment. so what we do want to do is do those tax incentives. >> there is no way to back that up, joe. >> just a moment, pat. >> what we also have to do is recognize that we have 17 million -- excuse me, 27 million americans who are under employed or unemployed. and so the state budgets this year have fallen 9% in terms of revenues. so we also want to probably infuse to the states an equivalent amount of money so that they don't lay off education people or people that they are having in their workforce just as we get the small businesses to get job growth going again. it is about job growth. buff we can have not have more hemorrhaging of jobs. gretchen: pat tomby, i have got to give you another word. >> more spending we cannot afford. this government and joe's votes have created a 1.4 trillion-dollar deficit. serious bailouts of companies that misallocate resources. this chilling effect that is affecting potential employers and actual employers by the threat of higher taxes on wages. this huge new energy cost. this is a big part of the problem. i hope the president will get off this agenda and on to one that will really limit spending and the bailouts, lower taxes and lower this deficit so that we can have private sector led growth. gretchen: no doubt this is going to be the whole topic of conversation as the two of you go head to head for that senate seat in pennsylvania. thank you both for joining me this morning. >> thanks, gretchen, thanks pat. >> thanks for having me. eric: we have the maverick, advice for aarp members. >> take your aarp card, cut it in half, and send it back. they have betrayed you. eric: that's not an aarp card. more from senator john mccain on the other side of the break. check it out, latest installments from elf yourself. we are going to show you the rest of our video. eric: happy bitter to jay we jay-z, the wrapper, he is 39 today. gretchen: half past the hour. let's give a couple quick headlines for a friday. fox news alert. nato announcing this morning that 25 countries will send a total of 7,000 troops to afghanistan next year with more to come. this as secretary of state hillary clinton continues meetings today with nato foreign ministers in brussels. she expects more allied nations to lend military, civilian and financial support in afghanistan in order for the to skied must be a true effort. grech. steve: u.s. and russia reportedly close to signing a deal on stockpile epps with. both countries are working on details. the current treaty expires today. don't expect sides to have -- both sides don't expect any security problems. russia and the u.s. are the world's two largest atomic powers. eric: they spent three days trapped in the snow after chopping down a christmas tree in the oregon mountains. the experience hasn't stopped lee to venture back for another prized tree in the wilderness. the lees rushed home safely with this year's tree in tow after their car got stuck in the snow. keith revealed christmas lifts with gifts to help anymore in trouble next year. >> i want a flare gun, a snow shovel and real shoes. >> that's your christmas list? >> that's my christmas list now. steve: how about a g.p.s. thing. eric: finding a tree in the wilderness is nothing new. in oregon, thousands of residents apply for tree permits each year. gretchen: biggest attraction at d.c.'s national zoo may soon be leaving? zoo officials say the first panda born at the zoo to survive more than a few days may soon be heading for china. he has easily been the most popular resident at the zoo. each of his birthdays have been major media events. zoo officials aren't confirming when the adorable 4-year-old's exact last day at the zoo will be so get their there while you can. steve: brian kilmeade is off today and eric bolling is now standing over in the sports department. eric: i'm going to do my best kilmeade impression. a game many of you didn't get to see thursday night football jets and bills in toronto, mark sanchez buys some time and finds braylen edwards for the game's only touchdown. great effort by edwards to find the end zone. sanchez would later leave the game with a knee injury. he is optimistic he is can play next week. dominant in the second half holding the bills to 36 total yards. and in oregon the ducks punched their ticket to the rose bowl. this after a 37-33 win over the big rival oregon state. red shirt freshman la michael james 166 yards rushing. the ducks will meet the buckeyes in pasadena on new year's day. first rose bowl appearance since 1995. steve: earthquake, do you that very well vuvment done sports before? eric eric i do weather. steve: anybody can do weather. oh, wait a minute. eric: janice dean. steve: she is the weather machine. she does a great job. let's talk a little bit about. this they were debating health care yesterday in the u.s. senate. it's interesting because the democrats have been saying we really need to pass this. in the meantime the republicans are saying you have seen all these medicare reductions that they are going to be -- they are going to cut so much out of this. well, on wednesday, the aarp wrote to the rescue of democrats and said we support all of these cuts. and we do support what's going on with the health care. well, john mccain is on the side of, wait a minute, if you are doing the did you tellcuts, thar people will wind up with benefits. fewer people who are members of aarp. so he has this message for them yesterday. >> i say shame on the aarp. i say to my friends especially those who are under medicare advantage program that 330,000 in my state who admittedly they are going to cut their medicare advantage benefits, take your aarp card, cut it in half, and send it back. they have betrayed you. steve: ouch. gretchen: a lot of people have been saying that on our show because it seems like the aarp were flip flopping on their message. they used to be opposed to cuts now they are ok. take a look at other people who have been on our show who said yeah, i just might cut up my card, too. >> give it a go and see what happens. maybe. i may have tonight up biting it apart. i guess it is laminated but here you go. >> you can cut it in how many ever pieces you like. >> cutting up his aarp right here. steve: so somewhat john mccain says as we watched some of the aarp membership card destruction on our program is cut it up and then send it back to aarp. and say, hey, you have been betrayed me. >> the issue is that medicare advantage is going to cut about 150 billion out of medicare advantage. that's the competing insurance that's the supplemental insurance that a lot of the aarp people are competing with. aarp says if you cut medicare advantage, you are going to push all those people into aarp. gretchen: the other issue is aarp is the political organization now as opposed to just looking out for the best interest of all elderly people, there are politics involved. gretchen: going to your point, eric, the cuts are clear. and, yet, the ceo of aarp sent out a letter that said most importantly the legislation does not reduce any guaranteed medicare benefits. it's the key word there is guaranteed. eric: sure, because that medicare advantage is supplemental to medicare. if you want the additional coverage you go to advantage. right now it is subsidized by the government. if they pull that subsidy, it's going to raise the price of medicare advantage it's going to make aarp's supplemental more competitive. gretchen: there was another organization that decided to start a senior citizen's program. you remember we had them on the show? we should get that information for you. there was another organization that said in light of all of this going on and they had 50,000 members or something like that and they had just started up. email us, twitter us what you think about that we thought we would have a little holiday fun with the latest edition of elf yourself. have you heard about this? internet phenomenon cut and paste your face on dancing elves. i like that body better. man, i didn't know i could move like that. steve: this is the elf yourself that somebody made last year for us. well, and last year it was disco. this year christmas, 2009, you can elf your several to a country tune. let's take a look at that. ♪ steve: we're having a ho down. gretchen: wow, look at that move. holy cow. pole dancing. steve: i hope that's a broom. ♪ steve: very nice. eric, you have got some moves. gretchen: look at that. steve: some of those moves later. gretchen: steve, you were just doing the shimmy. steve: i love to shim my on a friday. if you would like to make your own, do just that the web site is elf yourself. that comes to us from our friends at jib jab. eric: oj simpson wants us to know he is not a pry us. a movie about him. will you watch it? a little on the dirty side. then the secret service director taking the blame for the white house party crashers yesterday. >> judgment a mistake was made. in our line of work we cannot aford even one mistake. steve: a controversial fight between the white house and congress. judge andrew napolitano here next to explain. gretchen: time for our quote of the day. who said this? i didn't blow the whistle and i didn't save the dress. did i nothing to shine a light on my indiscretions or to out anyone else. email us on friends@foxnews.com. give you some fox goodies. steve: now it is time for news by the numbers. first, $1.6 million, that's the value of more than 5,000 counterfeit toys seized by by customs agents near the mexican border in san diego in the last two months. something else to worry about. next, 8.25 million, 2.5 million. there it is 8 and a quarter million, that's how many pink slips have been sent to congress. it's a campaign organized by world net daily to let the people express their disappointment with the job congress is doing. and finally, $1,100. that's the value of a gold coin found in a salvation army kettle in suburban, houston. it is the fourth year in a row somebody has dropped a gold coin at the same location. only other person i know with gold coins in his pocket, that man right there, eric bolling. gretchen: pass them over, eric. a new thriller set to be released in 2010 candid foot fage with a fictional whodunit plot line of a robbery. does this fictional film have anything to do with his real life armed robbery case? eric: we are joined by o.j.'s long time friend and producer norman pardo. thank you. let me get this straight. you were there for the years 2000 and forward. you documented a lot of his life. some of the partying he had done. his golf, et cetera, et cetera. you are putting together a fictional representation. a fiction, a movie with o.j. as the subject? >> actually, i wasn't really filming him golfing. i was his really promoter, manager. i put him out on the road and we continue d. different events all over the united states. during the events, i filmed the events. and when first started back in 2000 or maybe a little bit before that, i was doing it as a ohio state buckeyes. i -- filming it as a hobby. not as a documentary. in 2003-2004. we started changing direction of the film and what we were going to use the tapes for. gretchen: why did you change direction of the film? >> we weren't really planning a documentary. o.j. always told people it would be comical. we during a documentary called a day in the life. or we are doing a movie called whatever. he came one a different name every time because we never really named it i just wanted people to stay off guard on what i was doing. gretchen: called suspect 3. do you actually play out a murder scene in this documentary and a robbery scene? >> in the movie itself, the movie itself was started in 2006. before o.j. ever went to vegas. the movie is based exactly on what happened in vegas. it was based on that before he ever went there. so i shut down the filming of the movie because it became surreal. because the actual movie was based on what he did in vegas. gretchen: do you think this gave him the idea to do what can he in vegas? >> well, is he that way. he acts a lot. i do. i think that this partly was my fault. because he would have ran in there and they probably would say do like you are doing in the movie over there and maybe he did. my movie was started before o.j. was ever actually in vegas. and actually documented in the magazines because they had an article about the set being built for the o.j. thriller. eric: we have to get to this. a lot of people were frankly ticked off in 2006 when juice came out as pay purview watching oj party and crazy antics. many people thought he shouldn't fame from the infamy in the nicole brown being killed. where do the proceeds of this film go? >> the proceeds are going to go to me. and i'm probably going to give a lot of the proceeds to the kids where they belong. see, people forget, in that murder, and this is what people need to really think about. they don't think. they don't use that noggin of theirs. nicole brown simpson, their children are hursting the most. not goldman, it's the kids. the fred goldmans of the world said we are going to take the kids' inheritance, too. gretchen: with all due respect fred goldman lost his son as well. >> fred goldman took o.j.'s rolex. he wants a rolex for his son. is he trading him off right now. the kids aren't. gretchen: may be asking for similar types of things. >> if i lost my son, i thought he did it, he would not be walking this earth today. i would not be after his rolex watch. i'm sorry. i'm not that wait a minute i wouldn't say i want your rolex because my son is dead. i wouldn't do it. so i have no sympathy for him. gretchen: only legal way to get to him because the jury decided not to convict o.j. simpson. norman the film will be released 2010 in the cans film festival. thanks. eric: social secretary desiree rogers refusing to testify in the party crashing scandal coming up next. ddddddddd steve now it's time for the answer to our quote of the day. who said this? so many thought it was monica lewenski. the answer is ashley dupre who said it yesterday. she the call girl in new york city that governor eliot spitzer hired most famously down in washington she is referring to the publicity surrounding tiger woods alleged mistress. mike from spartanberg got the answer right. a box of fox stuff headed your way, michael. gretchen: one the other women in the tiger woods scandal may have traded her silence for a lump of cash. so what's the difference between extortion and a payoff? who better to ask than the judge? judge andrew napolitano is here. i was fascinated by this article on fox news.com in which you were quoted describing the difference between the letterman case and this case. what is it? >> well, in this case, tiger woods' lawyer approached -- apparently. we don't know this. we assume it's the case, approached ms. uchitel's lawyer and said is there a way to resolve this? uchitel is not going out there sand saying i'm going to say what i believe is the truth unless you pay me. the offer was from tiger. and the payment, if there was one, was voluntary. in the letterman case it was the other way around. it was unless you pay me, i'm going to go out there. so, the demand was from the person doing the threat and there was no voluntary payment. think of it this way. if you punched me in the foz and i sued you. and we agreed that my nose was worth $500, and you paid me and i stopped the lawsuit, that's a perfectly legitimate settlement of the dispute between us. we did it properly and we did it with lawyers. question, if you do it with lawyers, does that make it legal? steve: apparently so. eric: do what with levels? let me move on. [ laughter ] steve: there are a lot of lawyers involved in this. they had a hearing on capitol hill yesterday. the head of the secret service came down and said yep, we made some mistakes here. they wanted the social secretary for the first lady and the white house to come and testify. desiree rogers. and they said no, the white house said no, she can't come and we're going to cite the off quoted separation of powers where congress and white house are separate but equal so she doesn't have to show up. >> that is an absurd argument made by president nixon in 1974 and rejected by the supreme court at the time unanimously. congress has certain areas about which it may lawfully inquire of the executive and the executive must answer. and the executive can do certain things as president irrespective of what congress wants. so, yes, they are equal. but they have certain fields in which they are supreme. so, who has to testify from the executive branch against the president's will? anybody that the congress wants unless the subject matter is military secrets. diplomatic secrets or sensitive national security material. gretchen: it takes a subpoena? >> yes, it take as subpoena. steve: there is a party planner. there no no -- >> subpoena her and if she doesn't answer, hold her in contempt. steve: he will be kicking off brian and the judge two ours and three minutes from now. >> couldn't bowling wear a tie? gretchen: not going to happen, judge. steve: coming up on 7:00 on the east. a fox news alert. you are looking live of pictures at roman polanski's house. has just arrived moments ago. that's one of the guards or one of his people. he will be under house arrest at his swiss chalet. he has been fighting extradition to the united states ever since he admitted to having sex with a 13-year-old girl 30 years ago. now until they figure out what to do is he going to be hold up in that shah lay. meanwhile. gretchen: also coming up on the final two hours for a friday. -- we just did that story. the markets are up. profits are up. stimulus money being spent. so where the heck are the jobs? president obama has it all wrong and he has some advice. eric: i'm going to be his chief economic advisor in five minutes or so. steve: without a subpoena. we showed you the video yesterday. a groom whips out his phone to update his facebook status right at the altar before he kisses the brivmentd the bride, the groom, pats tore, all -- pastor, all here exclusively. gretchen: good morning, everyone. friday, december 4th. tgif. we start with a fox news alert. while you were sleeping the marines launched a mainly offensive in afghanistan. this as we learn osama bin laden has been spotted hiding, of course. eric: obama administration keeps trying to paint a rosy picture about the economy. get the jobs report this morning in an hour and a half. where are the jobs? i have got some advice for the president. steve: excellent. another christmas controversy, no god? no problem. that's what it says on that bus ad. where is the christmas spirit? we will tell you all about that. get your blood boiling for in friday. meanwhile our slogan this hour comes from allen in georgia. this is america where we display the stars and stripes. we have christmas trees with bright-colored lights. "fox & friends" gets it right. [captioning made possible by fox news channel] captioned by the national captioning institute --www.ncicap.org-- >> you are watching "fox & friends," that's the great way to begin your day. steve: thank you very much for that endorsement mr. don king. today the king of money television, our old buddy eric bolling sitting in for brian kilmeade who takes the day off today. eric: he wears a pink shirt doesn't he. steve: all the time but he wears a necktie. gretchen: like the pink. yes we do match today. we do begin with a fox news alert. u.s. marines launched all-out assault to take down the taliban in afghanistan. called operation angry cobra. first major offensive since president obama announced his new strategy. this is how it worked. 300 marines were dropped into what the military is calling a streeblegly important area in helmand province. u.s. commanders say they are trying to cut off enemy supply and communications lines to the north. this as nato warns that sending more troops to afghanistan was no silver bullet saying allies should prepare for a lengthy struggle. another developing story this morning. al it ban detainee claiming osama bin laden is alive and that he has been spotted where this time? afghanistan. according to the bbc he claims he met bin laden numerous times. also claims bin laden was seen crossing the border from pakistan to afghanistan back in january or february. the al qaeda leader is allegedly hiding out in a taliban strong hold. officials not yet verifying the suspect's claim. three secret service members now on leave in the wage of the white house party crashing scandal. officers supposed to be manning points. mark sullivan telling the congressional hearing that a mistake was made letting the couple into the event. but president obama says he still has 100% confidence in the agency. the salahis didn't show up at the hearing. lawmakers say they may subpoena the couple. fed reserve chair ben bernanke is at least partially to blame for the high unemployment rate the banking crisis, and all the bailouts. that's according to senators who grilled him yesterday at his confirmation hearing. bernanke is up for a second term. he defended his record. some the steps we have taken like the a.i.g. episode, for example, obviously have hurt the fed a lot, politically. we know that we did at this-i think that should just be proof that we did it for the good of the country. bernanke acknowledged making mistakes but insisted without the fed things would have been worse. most experts expect bernanke to be reconfirmed. some g.m. and chrysler dealers near you could be getting a break. this after both companies say they will reconsider decisions to close thousands of delearships across the country. it's not clear how many of the 3,000 delearships involved could actually be saved. both automakers took advantage of the chapter 11 bankruptcy process this year to weed out and cut dealers they say were not making money. all although a lot of them were wereiblable ones that were cut as well. those are your headlines. steve: coming up 35 minutes from now the department of labor is going to be releasing new unemployment numbers. it is not expected to have much good news and, in fact, the president yesterday was kind of tamping down any expectation things night be getting better. currently the unemployment officially stands at 10.2%. when you factor in unloiment and underemployment, it is closer to 18%, 19%, 20%. the key as was brought up yesterday at his jobs summit, eric, is people need jobs. where are the jobs? eric: the problem is we saw two days ago a report of private companies. we saw job losses 169,000. why is that important? well, it tells you that the rate is slowing. we are still loading jobs. we also found that the small businesses, the businesses of 50 employees and below were the hardest hit. they were losing by far the most amount of jobs. gretchen: so president obama commented yesterday on what will get businesses to hire again. then you are going to hear john boehner the republican congressman from ohio have a different reaction. >> and productivity is surging. companies are reporting profits. the stock market is up. but despite the progress we have made, many businesses are skill skiddish about hiring. >> with all of the tax increases that have been proposed this year, not yet enacted. employers don't know what the effective tax rate is going to be. as a result, you can't make a decision about reinvesting in your testimony. without having some idea of what that cost is going to be. steve: so yesterday the president had his jobs summit at the white house. today is he going to take it out to coal country in allen town, pennsylvania. of course eric thinks about this kind of stuff all day every day. eric you have a three-point plan for the president to consider. eric: it's a sad day for me, steve. it's my last day at fox. the president tapped me on the shoulder and said we need to create some jobs. bowling, i need you. three suggestions, mr. president. number one, $550 billion of the 787 billion-dollar stimulus plan is unspent so far. go to recovery got.gov. you will see that number for yourself. that means a half a trillion dollars could go back to the people that would give people the americans confidence. once you get confidence, you get trust. when you get trust, people will hire again. that's one. number two, renew the bush tax cuts. they are set to expire in about a year from right now. people are nervous. i'm talking confidence from anyone who owns a small business to a small employer to a medium sized employer. you renew those bush tax cuts again. you will start to hire. get the picture here so far. two suggestions to help hiring. and number three, for me a very, very big one. a lot of things. we talked to a lot of small business owners and they say one of the biggest expenses to them is health care. that's on their mind. front and center with the health care bill they expect their taxes to go up to pay for the health care bill. we can't afford it. and cap and trade number two, that would cost businesses a lot of money as well. drop cap and trade. drop health care. we can't afford both let alone one. both doesn't matter get rid of them. gretchen: chances of them listening to you eric bolling? >> zero. steve: they listen to you. will they do it? >> i will be back in a week. steve: come on back to the curvy couch. let's talk about something else we were talking about with pat michaels from the cato institute a half an hour ago. that is the so-called climate gate scandal where somebody, presumably a whistle blower hacked into one of the computers that has got all these email and data about global warming. and the research that the world community has been doing over the last number of 10 or 20 years or something like that. all the numbers and stuff like that. as it turns out, it looks as if there is a concerted effort on the part of some of these global warming activists who say we have got to stop burning fossil fuel to essentially doctor the information to make their case even though there is some evidence out there that flies in the face of what they are saying. gretchen: they called it research tricks. the pressing date tax squelching voices of dissent. those are charges the guy in charge of that et stepped down. here is what one of our guests had to say about it. >> some of the very very big named scientists were involved in trying to keep people out of the sign scientific literature. they would talk about if there is ever a freedom of information act request, if they ever find out that's true, i think i will destroy the file, meaning the data file that put together these global warming records. and they talk about all kinds of different things about how anybody's research who they don't agree with is not going to go on the literature. very, very bad stuff. gretchen: it's interesting because we have come so far along the road about believing in global warming. the media really jumped on board with this about 10 years ago. if you talk to the younger generation, they know all about what it means to be green. so could this all change now? we have got this climate summit coming up in copenhagen on monday. eric: keykioto expires. a lot of big money commitments. the u.s. should pony up 10, $20 billion to help developing nation develop cleaner fuels. this is bad idea. if nothing else, this should be a signal to obama who is going to thereby next week, hey, we are going to wait here. we are north going to sign any treaty right now. we are not sure exactly whether we have global warming, global cooling, climate change. listen, you know where i stand on this. i think we warm and we cool. it's the flow. steve: cycles. that's what a lot of meteorologists and climatologists think. meanwhile, what do you think? did scientists actually falsify stuff? let's go ahead and take a look. did scientists falsify research to support their observe theories on global warming? this is a brand new rasmussen poll. about 60% say somewhat likely. 3 a% very likely. 26% say not very likely. gretchen: in the spirit of firness i believe that question was asked before these emails were revealed. that poll number may actually be different now. eric: substantially higher? close to 100% now? gretchen: coming up on a show, a groom whips out his phone right at the altar before he kisses the bride. the groom, the bride, the pastor all here live. it's a "fox & friends" exclusive. steve: it's going to be great. plus, eric. eric: the president's plan for afghanistan to pull troops out in 2011. i think around july of 2011. it's to put pressure on karzai or take pressure off himself. our political panel is next. eric: welcome back. president obama's time line for pulling troops out of afghanistan by perhaps july of 2011 is coming under fire. >> i think the president as commander and chief always has the option to adjust his decision. >> that july 2011 date is a day we start transitioning, transferring responsibility and transsignaturing. it's not a date that we are leaving. and the president also said that will be based on conditions on the ground. >> that makes no sense for him to have announced the date. steve: ok. so is the president's withdrawal date intended to put pressure on karzai and his government or take pressure offer of himself? on our political panel this morning, colonel david hunt has rushed to the curvy couch. of course, is he a fox news military analyst. linda chavez syndicated columnist and lip con mitchell columbia university. lincoln, let's start with you. there are a lot of people, a lot of republicans got up and cheered for the president when he went to west point. yeah. what took you so long? a lot of people who put him in the white house said, what are you doing here? his base is hacked off. >> yes. and this deadline is not doing it for them. i think that as we saw in the clip, this -- there is a lot of wiggle room. there should be. the president needs to make decisions and right choice. this is not something that is being done to keep the base happy. they are upset about this. they are not buying it. steve: colonel hunt, when you look at the numbers up at west point he announced 30,000. as you point out; he put more men and women on the ground there a while back. >> he put 20,000 marines there a month. he has also got crystal behind him and good generals on the ground. i think it's about right to get the job finally done over there. steve: we had admirable mullen, the chairman of the joint chiefs on this program yesterday. it's not a withdrawal date. it's a point of transition. we have pencilled that in where we are going to look at it at that point in july and decide whether or not things are going right. the strategy is working out. if it's not working out, is he going to say ok, let's go? >> i don't think so. we also had a point of withdrawal in the iraq war. had success in helmand province and the bush administration signed it with president of iraq and that seemed to work out. the date i think people are fixating for different reasons. not necessarily a bad thing. >> i disagree. and i rarely disagree with colonel hunt on anything. but i think it was a very political thing that he tried to do. i think he was trying to appease his base. i think lincoln is right. it didn't do the trick. getting up and giving a speech, he didn't mention the word victory in that speech. it was really all about i'm doing this but i really am a little uncomfortable. steve: he is out to win? >> he better be out to win. he has staked his reputation on that. democrats keep from looking like the antiwar party. steve: lincoln, there have been some who have made a big deal. 5,000 word speech and not once did he mention the word win. >> well, i think that's less of an issue. the more thing i'm concerned about he has backed himself into a corner. he does want to win or succeed betweens on what verb you want to use. the deadline time line makes that difficult. let's say we are in march of 2011. there is two scenarios, things are going very well. how can you get out now? things are going well. we are close to succeeding. can't win. steve: you can't win. you -- we are going to continue our conversation with the panel come up. should social secretary desiree rogers have to answer for the white house party crasher gate or should she hide behind executive privilege? this is what you will see this weekend slapped on buses no god? no problem. that story straight ahead. some lunch. you hungry? yeah. me too. (door crashes in) (broadview alarm) (gasp and scream) go! go! go! go! go! go!

we are back with our panel. lincoln, let me start with you. you used to work in the white house. would this particular administration, they have made a determination in this case there would be nobody with a list at each of the checkpoints. >> that is so insane. i was director of public liaison which brings people in the white house. i literally oversaw thousands of people coming into the reagan white house. we would never have had an event where you did not have a staff person at the gate. you know, because there are all sorts of foulups. someone can have a middle name that's on their driver's license that's not on the list. have you got to have somebody there. steve: not here there is a william wilson and where do you work? you work over there. you are the guy come on. >> in exactly right. desiree rogers who is the social secretary has gone into hiding. witness protection program now. i think she has some explaining to do. steve: lincoln, they had this committee hearing yesterday, and they wanted her to testify because she really knows all the stuff. and the white house said we can't send her because of separation of powers. because, you know, we are coequal branch of government. white house people don't have to answer questions. we just had judge napolitano on that said that refers to an instance of national security and big secrets and stuff like that. she is a party planner. >> i think if congress cares enough to find out what happened here, she should testify. even if you could construe a legal argument that she shouldn't, as a gesture of good faith obama white house should have her testify. >> if this keeps up you are going to be able to get in the white house, steve. steve: do you think heads need to roll. >> secret service heads and white house staff. this is heads of state. up close and personal to the president of the united states. should not have been anywhere near there. recommendation i don't think he was in real danger. >> procedurally. sends a bad signal. >> i don't know whether or not. i'm sort of lean on the side of maybe they shouldn't come up before congress. president obama ought to have her in the oval office and maybe she ought to be circulating her resume right now. steve: plus, lincoln, there is the couple right there that caused all the stinken trouble. get those people up on capitol hill. they declined. their attorney says they don't have to. benny thompson says i'm going to subpoena these people. i want to see them. >> i'm also going to go on record in fox and say they are not invited to my birthday party. steve: what day is that? >> saturday. steve: this saturday? tomorrow? >> your social secretary will be there to clear the list. steve: great panel today. thank you for reporting to duty along linda chavez and lincoln mitchell. off to the yeep room and gretchen and rark out there somewhere. gretchen: the jury has stopped deliberating. we could have a verdict morning. the case of the american college girl accused of murdering her roommate in italy. live at the courthouse next. eric: new billboards that say no god? no problem. are the atheist just jealous of yuletide cheer? we report. you decide. gretchen: all is fair in love and twittering? we will meet the groom who stopped his own wedding to get some cyber time in. i wonder if his new wife was in on that? they are all three here. oonc. wll tblarnc. orvefse em ds tigin eric: let's get ride to your headlines. we begin with a fox news alert. it's a story we have been following closely. moments ago a jury stopped deliberating the fate of amanda knox, the american exchange student accused of murdering her roommate. joining us is our own greg burke can we expect a verdict now any moment? >> well, i don't think any moment we can say at this time. things have gone pretty slowly. they have actually expected a much longer wait. there had been some question that the jury would ask for a little information. we can probably expect a verdict today. we will see what happens. amanda knox said yesterday she didn't want to be considered a killer. that she had this mask forced upon her. she was afraid about that. she will find out if the jury does think she is a killer. she came today arriving in the courtroom dressed just like she had been yesterday. she actually arrived in the same van as her former boyfriend. both of them charged with murder and sexual assault in the death of meredith kircher. that was amanda's british roommate here in perugia. both of them on a study abroad program. this is a very popular town for that. this trial with has been going on since january. it looks like we are at the end of it finally, guys, amanda knox's parents have followed this trial pretty closely spending a lot of money to come over here. we understand they are in perugia. they will be there for the verdict. a lot of emotion on both sides of the aisle here today. guys? gretchen: greg burke, live for us in italy. thank you very much. nato announcing this morning that 25 countries will send a total of about 7,000 troops to afghanistan next year with more to come. this as secretary of state hillary clinton continues meetings today with nato foreign ministers in brussels. she expects more allied nations to lend military civilian and financial support to the next at 5:30 afghanistan. secretary general says in order for the afghanistan mission to succeed, there must be a true team effort. steve: meanwhile homeland security secretary janet napolitano set to participate in nationalization ceremony this morning. first she spoke to the american-israel friendship league about accused terrorist naji beulah zazi. she says americans are being radicalized abroad. >> we are seeing increasing links between al qaeda and these citizens for purposes of planning terrorist attacks. steve: curiously these comments very different from ones she made in march, referring to terror attacks as man-caused incidents. not terrorism, eric. eric: the cia is reportedly going to use more drones in pakistan and "new york times" says the obama administration is talking with pakistan about expanding the program outside tribal areas to places like where many taliban leaders are believed to be hiding. the decision goes along with the president's plan to send 30,000 additional troops to afghanistan. gretchen: the prifer who helped bring down the accused fort hood shooter says she is hurt too badly to return to street duet. sergeant kimberly munley does want to continue police work but says it may have to be behind a desk. she was shot twice during the attack. and apparently she needs a total knee replacement surgery. meantime, sarah palin plans to visit fort hood for a book signing tonight. steve: meanwhile, a new survey finds nearly two out of three businesses would slash workers' medical benefits to avoid a cadillac tax on more expensive insurance policies. the senate health care bills 40% tax would kick in for benefits over $8,500 for an individual and 23,000 for a family. the survey was done by the memberser consulting firm. and that's a quick look at your news for this friday. eric: america's newest sports tradition thursday night football. one problem, this game was played, where? in canada. to toronto we go. jets, bills, second quarter. mark sanchez buys some time and finds braylen edwards for the game's only touchdown finds the end zone. sanchez would later leave the game with the knee injury. he forgot to slide. is he optimistic he can can play next week. the jets defense dominant in the second half, holding the bills to 36 total yards. all right. adrian peterson is the fastest running back in the nfl. and nfc. apparently need for speed extends beyond the football field. peterson cited for speeding after chris clocked him driving 109 miles per hour miles per hour. >> i have got you going 109. >> 109? >> serious? >> sure. >> peterson and vikings travel to arizona to take on the cardinals this sunday. and, we all know lebron james can hit shots from anywhere on the court. who knew he could do it with a football. the king finds nothing but net from 80 feet away. last week lebron stated he wouldn't mind playing for the cleveland browns. looks like he would be a quarterback. watch out brady quinn. steve, over to you guys. steve: ok, eric, thank you very much. they were just about be pronounced husband and wife. bride and groom when the groom decided to take a time out to do some social networking. check out this video. >> let no one separate. oh, is he updating his relationship status. [ laughter ] steve: we showed you this video yesterday. what exactly was he doing? well, we decided to find out. newly weds dana and tracy hanna join us live here in our new york studio. the pastor who married him is joining us live from washington. good morning to everybody. >> good morning. >> good morning. steve: dana, he was about to say you may kiss the bride, but before you did that, you whipped that out and what did you type? what were you doing? >> i typed that i'm about to kiss my bride and it was done very tongue in cheek and it was just supposed to be funny and a representation of my personality and i didn't expect it to explode into what it did that's for sure. steve: it has exploded. right now, that particular viral video has been viewed by 668,000 people. that many hits. now, tracy, when he pulled that out, when he whipped that out, there you are under that veil? what are you thinking is he doing? because you didn't know? >> i didn't know he was going to do it. i mean it's dana. steve: is he a practical joker? >> is he very funny. we had a great time at the wedding. so i wasn't surprised, i guess. i didn't know about it but i wasn't shocked. i was jealous. i was like i don't have any pockets i don't have my phone. then he hands me my phone. steve: the pastor was in on this. you knew he was going to do something because he said he wanted to have a little fun. a lot of people want to have a little fun at their weddings. when he pulled that thing out, what did you think he was doing? >> well, i didn't know he was going to do it. i usually don't like to ad-lib at the weddings that i do. dana pulled me aside at the rehearsal and thought it would be appropriate as tracy said. it's deign navment and so it was fitting. it was a fun moment. steve: now, pastor, when people get richard hitched. a lot of them like to do something a little crazy. brian kilmeade, when he got married he had a crazy thing happen at his reception involving tear away pants. it's a funny story but trust me it's a peachy story. my wife and i stood briefly in a found where they were. they just decided to go social networking. what do you think about this pastor? >> they did. well, as i said, dana, he is always on his iphone. we teays him about that quite a bit. it was no surprise. it was a surprise that people didn't know it was going to happen but everyone had expected it from dana. and tracy responded well. so i think that's the key. she was a good sport about it. and, of course, joined right in with him. so, it was a fun time. we were kind of boring at our wedding. but they made it a fun one. steve: ok. so, dana, when i saw that video yesterday, i tout to myself now that's one of those guys who just is always twittering or tweeting or facebooking or something like that. >> i probably do more than he does. steve: really? >> yeah. >> we definitely both facebook, we both twitter. but not that much. we do have family scattered around the country and we use facebook a lot to communicate with them. since a lot of them were there, it certainly added to the whole sarcasm tongue in cheek thing making fun of people who do facebook. steve: were you changing your relationship status on facebook? >> there isn't an a.p. for that. steve: instead he sent a twitter tweet and he wrote: steve: you are a pretty good typist. under that pressure. >> he had pretyped my message and i had mine pretyped. >> i almost forget to update my status i was like, what? steve: you were thinking about a lot of stuff. it's a great story and congratulations you are a viral video hit online. >> thank you. steve: dana and tracy, hanna, thank you for joining us. >> thank you. steve: pastor luke acreson, thank you for joining us from washington, d.c. >> thanks, steve. that's a nice story. meanwhile, president obama's job summit, was it just another photo on, rnc chairman michael steele here. i would imagine he would say it was. meanwhile amy grant stopping by live this morning with how you can help children one shoebox at a time. she is going to explain very shortly. @ w wúwúw eric: anti-god ads back on buses. no god? no problem. paid for by the atheist group freedom from religion. why bring this war on jesus at a time when it's all about giving and happiness? gretchen: grammy winning singer amy grant is here. she knows all about the meaning of christmas and so much more. we will hear all about operation christmas child in just a moment. amy, what about this atheist campaign? to me it seems a logical time for them to launch this campaign because it's christmas time. >> sure. of course. and thank you for just launching into this subject when i get here. you know, i know as a mom i'm always so aware by the time we are my age we know what we believe. i believe christmas is a celebration of jesus' birth. who do you feel cautious for is people who say who am i? what do i believe? gretchen: exactly. >> to me, this is another exercise of, you know, people whittling through saying, hmmm, i'm seeing that everywhere but that's not what i think. that's part of being an american is the freedom to say what you think. and do i think that? absolutely not. i'm so celebrating faith. eric: but in your face on buses, on subways, it's terrible. things are influenced by what they see on the street. this is the worst place they can probably put it must be some type of filter where these ads can show up. >> you have got to realize my background is music business there are lifestyles portrayed on that just as nasty as nasty can be. i'm dragging my kids to things i'm going honey, we're not going to dress like that. i feel like that that filter is -- i just -- you develop a filter. gretchen: you have to. let's talk about something really great bylaws operation christmas child founded back in 1993. tell us about it? >> we are launch agnew vegie tails movie. i brought this because i'm sending it home with you because i met your children yesterday. but this is the story of saint nicholas and it's so charming and so inspiring. and the trailer at the begin something about operation christmas child where anybody is invited to pack a box and send it to a child in a developing country. imagine a child growing up in poverty and opening a shoebox going somebody on the other side of the world sent me a doll. they sent me band-aids. it's an absolute easy way for somebody to feel loved. eric: 70 million children. 130 countries have received the shoeboxes. that's fantastic. what else in the shoebox besides the video? >> well, probably the video is not in the shoebox because it requires a dvd. here is the great thing about empowering children to give. anybody who purchases one of these vegie tales saint nicholas a season of joyful giving, there is a code in here, go on the web site big ideas and actually send a free dvd to somebody else. gretchen: really? >> so with the purchase of one, you can give another. it's such a great story and talks about the americana santa claus and our faith in jesus all -- this will stave children from a lot of therapy. gretchen: the reason you are promoting vegie tales is because you are singing on this dvd. >> i'm sending the end credit song with matthew west. it's just such a great last statement about giving. gretchen: i know you have a blended family at home. you are married to vince gill. i think the age range of your kids goes to 27 and then you have a little one 8. i remember interviewing the two of you together before. you love this time of year, right? because it's all about family and celebrating christmas. >> i do. we are as duct taped together as everybody else. but this year we are all aware that it's our last year to all spend the night on christmas eve together because generally, the oldest is getting married in may. so she is already saying my last christmas eve that we are all together. yeah. we're excited. eric: more of that, less of the no god? no problem bumper sticker. >> thank you. gretchen: president obama's job summit just a photo on? that's what some people are saying. rnc chairman michael steele, that's what he is saying. steele next right here in our studio. eric: she has an emmy and a tony and a hit guest starring role, i will get this one second on the show glee one of my favorite shows that's not all kristin chen wet is here live. gretchen: the american ship mary celeste was found abandoned. what happened to the captain and the crew remains a mystery. eric: 1997 spreewell was suspended for a year by the nba for choking maurice. in the 1967 the monkeys had the number one record daydream believer. i don't know. i never heard of that song. gretchen: come on, you were here. eric: who are the monkeys? gretchen: i loved them. ♪ gretchen: welcome back. faced with the highest unemployment in 26 years. president obama claims his stimulus package is creating or saving jobs. but, is his jobs summit the latest distraction from what some say are the failures of his administration? well, let's ask chairman of the republican national committee michael steele who i know disagrees with the president on this whole situation. so great to have you in the studio, by the way. >> good to be here, absolutely. gretchen: let's talk about this jobs summit because i know you were criticizing this as a pr stunt, this is the problem i have with it if you come into office saying the most important thing is to get the economy going, why don't you start with the one engine that will do that and that's small business? here we are 11 months into the administration, you are going to have a summit to talk about jobs creations after you have gone from 8% to now 10% unemployment? this is a summit that should have happened the second day he was in office. if you were serious about job creation. now, this is more of a pr opportunity now because the numbers have not moved. the jobs report is going to come out and show it's either still at 10.2 or gone up to 10.3. that's not the administration the administration thought we should be headed right now. >> president obama starts the white house to main street program. going to start in allen town, pennsylvania. he is going to talk about job creation. gretchen: he has hingted that he might have tax cuts for small businesses. do you take him at his word that he might actually do what some way would be republican move? >> ok. you are going to do tax cuts, that's great, mr. president. why don't we start by making the bush tax cuts permanent. the ones already in place. the ones that expire in about a year and a half. how can you talk about tax cuts when everything in your health care bill raises taxes on small business owners and makes it more difficult for them to be incentivised to go into the market place there are things that this administration says and then there is things that this administration does. i'm looking at what it is doing and what it has done. and all of that tells me they are not serious about job creation and tax cuts and creating those incentives because you are putting in place a cap and tax program. have you got a card check program. have you got a health care program, and you have taken over large sectors of our economy, banks, and the like that have the ability to stimulate small businesses. so, why don't you free up that capital and that credit by creating a panel of small business owners to go out there and do the things that they normally do to grow us out of a recession. gretchen: there would be a dichotomy in the message. because a lot of the president's plans right now talk about increasing spending. if he were to come out and talk about tax breaks for small businesses, people like you would jump right on that. >> exactly. increasing spending. now you are going to talk about tax cuts. gee, that's what you told us was creation deficit. oh, guess what, that's what we are doing. the reality of it is you need to cut the spending. you need to free up the marketplace by inserenity advising small businesses through tax cuts, keeping tax cuts already in place in place. drop the capital gains tax. let's lower unemployment tax. there are a lot of things this administration could be doing right now. gretchen: michael, on a scale of 1 to 10 the chances that those things are going to happen. >> zero. gretchen: have a fabulous weekend. good to see you here. >> great to see you. gretchen: two planes came so close together they actually merged on the radar how could that happen? we will tell that you story. a 90-year-old veteran is fighting a new enemy, his own neighbors. it's all over the american flag under attack again in our country of america. still tired of morning coming in the middle of the night?

[captioning made possible by fox news channel] captioned by the national captioning institute --www.ncicap.org-- >> i'm glen campbell and you are watching "fox & friends." gretchen: get to your headlines for a friday. something big happened. u.s. marines launched out an all out assault to take down the taliban in afghanistan operation cobra. first major offensive since president obama announced his strategy the other night. 300 marines were dropped into what the military is calling a strategically important area in the helmand province. u.s. commanders say they are trying to cut off the enemy supply, the communication lines to the north. this all happening as nato warns that sending more proops to afghanistan no silver bullet. saying allies should prepare for a lengthy struggle there another fox news alert. nato announcing that two dozen country also send troops to afghanistan next year. this as u.s. secretary of state hillary rodham clinton told her ally counterparts in brussels infusion of forces is crucial that is turning the tide in the long war. president obama plans to send an additional 30,000 troops to afghanistan and that would up the presence total there to 100,000 u.s. troops. another relative of accused cop capitolkiller maurice clemmons r arrest. ricky is charged with helping clemmons avoid police after he shot four officers in a coffee shop sunday. he is clemmons half-brother and one of six friends rounded up. police are still looking for two more people. a seattle cop shot and killed clemmons on monday. a fox news alert. a story we have been following closely. an italian jury deliberating the fate of an american student for quilg killing roommate kircher. knox pleaded her case to italian court telling them she is afraid of being branded a murderer. she and her exboyfriend both accused of killing kircher. she could go to prison for life if convicted. parents, you may want to pay attention to quliewr kids are doing on cell phones. a new trend called sexting, it's not a new trend. we have known about it. nearly 1/3 of teens and young adults have either viewed or shared sexually beings police sit pictures or messages on cell phone. associated press mtv poll, that's an interesting one, found that more than 1200, 14 to 23-year-olds admit to sharing the content of explicit photos of themselves and others. authorities are trying to crack down on the trend because some of these sexting linked to arrest and suicide. not to mention what it could do to your future because once it's out there, it's out there. steve: it has been out there for a long time. geraldo rivera. >> thank god there is no texas continuing. gretchen: i was just thinking that but i will let you tell it. steve: could you that on the telegraph. >> tiger woods emails and instant messages. isn't it logical to assume as he is exchanging these emails with the various paramores in various cities, hey, honey, show me something to tide me over until i get to vegas and get to australia. steve: the stories out there now. >> i don't mean to -- i have been clean and sober in that area for nine years but i do have some expertise. steve: apparently some sort of texting between tiger and rachel uchitel and his wife looked at the phone and that's what led to whatever happened before the incident with the golf club breaking out the back window and stuff like that. two stories out there today that apparently rachel you can tell was supposed to have a press conference yesterday with gloria al red 2:30. last minute they called it off. one story that she received perhaps billions of dollars to keep quiet. another story she wants a timeout. she is worried about her safety. she has decided she just wants to get out of picture. >> a couple of points. let me back up to the incident itself. people are down on tiger for not talking to the cops after the incident any lawyer that allowed him under those circumstances to talk to the florida highway patrol i think would have been disbarred. it would have been malpractice per se under those circumstances it would have been so easy to catch him in a perjury trap. that he was what got martha stewart. well did, your wife hit you with that golf club? no. they ask the wife. did you hit him with the golf club? yes. that's all it takes, that kind of perjury trap so that never should have happened. in terms of why the purported mistress canceled the press conference, i don't think it was anything so crude as tiger or his representative. steve: you don't think it was a shakedown. >> you wouldn't do it that way. you would do it far more subtle. tiger's representative would say to rachel i want to buy the rights to your life story. in other words, now i have exclusive rights to anything of all of sins, transgressions, your blessed events, whatever it is, now i own your story and you now have a contract turley obligation to remain silent. i think that's much more likely than either she says give me a million dollars or i will talk or tiger saying i will give you $5 if you don't talk. high stakes finance. this is big business. this is now a corporatization of all the sin in the book. gretchen: no matter -- whatever the words were, it's the same thing. she is going to be paid money. let me ask you though about the prenup with the wife. if it's true this part of the story is troubling to me today. apparently reports are saying and, again, i don't know if they are true or not, that tiger woods' wife has been offered more money to stay in the marriage. she doesn't need more money. shouldn't they just sit down and figure out whether or not they actually want to be married to each other first? >> isn't it ironic when you look at how beautiful this woman is compared to the so-called nightclub v.i.p. hostesses which is kind of like a legalized prostitution most often at the celebrity level. in terms of the renup why not. most prenups in a case like this where you have uneven relationship as post prenups have, you have a big super star and a nobody. however gorgeous she is basically. so what the prenup does is protect the somebody's fortune from the nobody. and i don't mean in any ways to regard her character as being less than his or anything. it's just their commercial value. he has a prenup to protect his fortune. he gives her the contract states you get $5 million. or you get $10 million if you stay a years. $15 million if you get children. >> it's all spelled out. >> all spelled out. nothing in a pre-up in, particularly one negotiated by the powerful figure that says if you cheat i get more money. that doesn't happen. eric: why even renegotiate the original agreement? >> michael douglas was a notorious cheater with a background not unlike mine back in the day. he marries catherine zeta zones much younger than myself as my wife is they negotiate a cheaters clause. in other words, if michael douglas after signing this contract marrying catherine zeta jones was to revert to his old habits. catherine has the option of divorce but also she gets a huge cash payout. i will bet you dollars to donuts she did not -- woods did not have that clause in their prenup. they are taking advantage of temporary leverage of tiger being embattled and him needing her to stand by his side to renegotiate the contract they had. eric: why does he need her. >> what if he loves her. he is the mother of her children. steve: he should have thought about that. >> men, don't. please. have you ever watched entourage. there are these celebrities have enablers surrounding them. -- semi pros. gretchen: she is also a gazillion narrow. >> why? gretchen: according to the prenup details that we have seen. why would she say yeah, i will take more money? that cheapens her side of the argument. >> well, you are talking morality and i think that that's a much different debate that we can have. tiger woods is worth over a billion dollars. there is no way on god's green earth that her prenup is giving her half of that. which is what the presumption would get half in most states the wife gets half in divorce. no way prenup gives her half. less than half. it's in her best interest to negotiate up to that 50% to. steve: to stick around. gretchen: what's the difference between 100 million and 300 million? >> there is a big difference. steve: or 20 million? eric: i'm still trying to figure out why has to do this geraldo? i understand why she wants to? steve: why does she want to renegotiate? >> take me to court. you said there is no grounds. >> with all due respect. i love my wife and nine years i have today towed the line. there are present of people in this land who want the image of being married without the responsibilities of being monogamous. that's not a news headline, that's the fact. eric: the image of being married guy best father? steve: toast. >> i believe the problem with tiger woods' situation now is you don't know how far his handlers enabled him. three women on the table now. what if it's 30? what if one of them is underage? what if one of them is married -- the serial revelations will continue to tarnish him. if he wins the u.s. open next year, people will be remembering that green jacket, not the -- steve: all right. -- ladies. let's talk a little bit about an incident just before thanksgiving. >> hopefully they are all ladies. gretchen: geraldo? steve: just at the last second he throws that in there. a couple days before thanksgiving, there is a report that apparently air traffic controllers accidentally essentially put two airplanes in the same approach and here we have got it was a frontier, it was a united express, i think. they were on the same thing. at the last second the air traffic controller told the top plane to make a u-turn and essentially drive within 200 feet horizontally of the other plane. and this is just one of those scary things. i wonder how often this happens. >> remember when my helicopter pilot got killed here at teterboro a few months back because the air traffic controller was talking love talk on the phone with his girlfriend at that time. you have a situation where since the strike of 1981 remember that during the reagan administration? gretchen is too young. gretchen: i remember it? >> i don't think the air traffic controllers have recovered from that strike. there were only 11,000 of them. they have say you can use twice as many. they get stressed out. work too many hours. make human errors. clearly this was a person who made a grievous error. the difference between this guy making an error and me at my desk putting a -- on a verb directly people can die. this is clear this is a stressed system. it's been stressed since 19 1. never recovered from the strike of the reagan administration and how they broke that union. and i think that when you go up there, it is, to a certain extent, still a crap shoot. eric: do we know that irtraffic controllers are allowed to have cell phones in the tower? you see people texting driving. >> excellent idea to ban them. clearly at teterboro the guy was on the phone. i'm not sure if it was the cell phone or land line. steve: it was not official business. >> it was clearly not official business. kind of business where you should make a very strict penalties if they do -- gretchen: you are talking about life and death. geraldo at large catch it on saturday and sunday night. come up on our show, what would you do if you were mad at your town? put a sign like this on your house? one homeowner did and now he is being told to take it down but should he? he will join us. steve: actress kristin chenoweth has a new believe out for the holidays. wait until you learn what she had to learn to prepare for her role. so many arthritis pain relievers -- i just want fewer pills and relief that lasts all day. take 2 extra strength tylenol every 4 to 6 hours?!? taking 8 pills a day... and if i take it for 10 days -- that's 80 pills. just 2 aleve can last all day. perfect. choose aleve and you can be taking four times... fewer pills than extra strength tylenol. just 2 aleve have the strength to relieve arthritis pain all day. steve: what a story this is. a man from cary, north carolina claims that construction in the town wrecked his house, destroyed his home. now he is raising some eyebrows with the controversial sign that he has painted on his house. gretchen: that man david bowden is joining us with his lawyer. good morning to both of you. >> good morning. >> good morning. gretchen: i understand the town came by your house, david, they destroyed part of your home or your property. and that upset you a lot. so you decided to spray paint a message on your house that said, what? >> screwed by the town of carry, nc. steve: that's pretty strong. how does the town of carry feel about that? >> i got their attention -- i couldn't get their attention at all so i painted a sign on my house. i told them i was going to put the sign up there if they didn't do something. and they didn't do anything. so, i put it up. i finally got their attention. steve: yeah. so, mark, does it have to do -- the town is talking about imposing a fine on your client. mark, does it have to do with the fact that the message is what it is or is it that old sign order ordinance? they have got how big a sign can be. >> it's our argument base on content. it had said support the troops. we doubt they would have taken this action. the town intends it's a neutral sign ordinance and would have thean action no matter. what even if that's true the wall sign that mr. bowden has only two square feet about this big which you can't see from the road. we are arguing even if it's a a neutral ordinance still unconstitutional. gretchen: isn't the real issue for both of you that your house was damaged or your property was damaged? shouldn't you be fighting for the town to fix that? >> well, all they want to do is get the sign down. nothing has been mentioned about fixing my house or anything. gretchen: do you care about that? do you want your house fixed or is it more important to have your sign up. >> it doesn't look like either one is going to work, they didn't even know me until i put the sign up. steve: yeah. >> now i have their attention. steve: mark, what exactly what happened to the house that his, you know, brought this action? >> well, there was originally a road widening, then they increased the road and it raised it by about 6 feet and according to mr. bowden that's created some flooding. if you look in his basement there is feet and feet of water. and, like he said, he put the sign up, and that's what got the attention. so the sign is working. that's what the first amendment does. it shows that this is why you put a sign up. steve: of course now that the town is talking about slapping with you a fine, that hasn't started yet, thankfully. keep us posted guys, thank you very much. >> thank you. gretchen: is nasa in on the climate gate scandal? one researcher says there may be data fudging that goes back 40 years. he will be here. steve: tiger may have been caged. to keep his wife by his side, you won't believe what some stories are out there about what he is doing. could be paying her a lot of money. we will tell you how much coming up. renup talk that you almost couldn't sleep. let's get back there. santa's wonderland in@ bass pro shops has what we've all been looking for. elves, trains, and a picture with santa,@ all for free.

>> all right. tiger woods alleged affair may cost him big according to the daily beast. woods is paying his wife $5 million as a down payment to stay with him and renegotiating their prenuptial agreement for a huge payout if they stay together for another seven years. that's a big if. so can prenups be renegotiated? we are joined now by divorce attorney vickie ziegler. we have been hearing a lot about it. i talked to geraldo, i'm still trying to figure out, you know, there has to be something in it for both. i understand what's in it for elin woods, she wants more money. what's in it for tiger. >> i think it's about his p.r. image. at this point you want to make him look like the family man. is he going to do the right thing. do whatever it takes financially to make sure he she stays with him, stands by him and doesn't talk. there will definitely be a nondisclosure signed here which says i can't speak to nobody, no books, no media and see if we can keep this unit moving forward. eric: the bottom line is, you know, if wheaferg we heard is $20 million under the current prenup. sounds like a lot of money to be paid when we have already found out advertisers said you know what? it's a private matter. nike said there is not going to move away unless there is more to the story. >> let's go ba be to the first part of the question in 2004, 350 million. to give somebody 20 million for a 10 year marriage. he could be upwards of 5 or 600 million. eric: do you defend the divorcer or the divorceee because people would say hey, she signed the contract. she knew he was one of the world's best golfers at the time if not the best. she knew there was going to be a the love money. she signed it she will take 20. >> i think what tiger did is reprehensible. absolutely. we don't know if they still love each other or not. at the end of the day, as long as tiger is willing to renup, renegotiate and give her more money, that's the end of the deal. that's really about the children. keep the family unit together. these people are absolutely embarrassed. at the end of the day the scandal could be growing and mushrooming. we don't know one, two, three, five women. >> we will talk about that. cockroach theory. is it 3? is it 5? what do you think? >> purely speculation i would think there is probably 3 to 5 out there in the woodwork. everyone wants to make a dime off tiger. because he has been so scandalous and made mistakes? go for it. eric: you know you who he better over and under on scores? i bet 5. elliott despitzer -- spitzer. dupre feel like she missed out on big buckages. >> people take advantage of celebrities in circumstances like this. if you are stupid enough to do it? why not? beauty fades stupid stays. ziegler divorce attorney. thanks. >> thanks, eric. eric: video gone wild after they updated their facebook status. we will hear from the bride and the groom. and president obama starts his jobs tour today but it could be on a sour note. we are going b. to find out how many jobs were lost in the last month in just two minutes. we'll talk to chris wallace about that. >> president obama and the democratic majority in congress are now assembling a new jobs package. the area with the most job openings? white house security. a lot of openings there. steve: this is a fox news alert. and there is some good news this morning. apparently this is -- you are about to hear the smallest job loss number in a very rng time. according to the department of labor, 11,000 american workers lost their job. it's terrible news for those 11,000, eric bolling from the fox business network but, none the less, for the last, what, year and something we have been talking about hundreds and hundreds of thousands. >> and january and february we almost had 800,000 job losses for the month. analysts were looking for about 120,000 job losses. we have lost 11. that's the good news. the bad news is see there at the bottom of the screen right there, november unemployment still stays at 10%. you are talking probably in the naked of 14 million people still out of work. gretchen: it went down from 10.2%. let's deal in chris wallace from washington to get his thoughts on this breaking news as it just comes in? >> eric is exactly right and knows more about it than what i do. the estimates have been 125,000 jobs loss. that's obviously no solace to those people that lost their job. it's a strategy for them. the fact that we lost that number of jobs is really an indication o-that the economic decline is slowing down. there had been some people here in washington that have predicted -- that do predict that, in fact, in december we will see positive job grote. and, again, you know it's still going to be tough on the millions that run employed and politically tough on democrats. if we begin to see positive job growth. that's a very positive message that the president and you can be sure that he will be emphasizing that when he goes out on jobs tour today in pennsylvania. steve: absolutely. chris, you saw the item in the "new york times" about a week or two, three weeks ago where they talked about underemployment and unemployment it's close to 18%, 19%, something like that. so many people are so fingerhut straighted there is no jonts they gave up or their benefits have run out so they are not reflected of in these numbers. that's correct. nerms of it elm who have given up and want to work much more hours than they are, having said that you have have got to work somewhere. >> when you talk about where half a million part-time wereed whoing their jobs and noun now gown to 11,000. that's a positive trend and you have to analyze it this way? eric: the dow is up about 113 points in less than four minutes. about four minutes since the number was released. chris, touch on that for a second. obama is going through pennsylvania on this main street job tour is this going to be the theme of the tour all day today? >> yes and. no obviously he is on the one hand say things are looking up. that we are doing better. on the other hand, we know -- we understand there are an awful lot of people unemployed and economy shaky and we have got to do more. what was really interesting, eric, about the jobs summit yesterday in washington was the president acknowledging that the government can't spend its way out of this recession and out of, you know, the jobs situation. i think you are going to see a much smaller, you know, it won't even be called a second stimulus but a much smaller more targeted series of jobs, programs but, you know, look, it's better to have good news today than bad news, think of what this would be if we were talking about another half million jobs and unemployment had gone to 10.5%? gretchen: no doubt. let's talk about something else we know something about since you are headquartered in washington where this happened and that's the gate crasher story. three secret service employees now have been put on at least temporary leave. i think they will still be paid but they could ultimately be fired. at the same time, the social director desiree rogers is not going to be called to testify, at least for now, unless she is subpoenaed. right? >> well, i think even if he is subpoenaed the white house says that they are going to invoke executive privilege. white house aides and we have seen this in every administration generally do not come down and talk to congress in the idea of separation of powers. in the end i think k. save the social secretary would have done more. ultimately the responsibility of the seat service. the secret service did have a lirs. >> hue hard is it to look at the list to say they aren't the list or not on the list. a social secretary as he'll he will many the odd thing about this because we all go to white house christmas parties if the past, i go to the check point crot service agent says hi, how are you. it f. they look at the listened you are if the on it they will let you go. gretchen: that's why this is so startling that this could actually happen. do you believe that the secret service should be penalized and the couple should be penalized?
