be unbiased on the issue of gun control? jon: is limbaugh missing a point here, do you think. i feel like he is. i don t think he was really comparing them. i don t think he was saying this thing is exactly like this thing. i think he was saying if you can take on these monstrous things, and certainly if you take on something that is so much smaller. i think quite the opposite how limbaugh is portraying it. like me saying, you know, if we can put a man on the moon why can t we have cell phone coverage on amtrak acela. i m not comparing nasa and am track. you re making a point we re overcoming huge things in the past, why can t we tackle this thing that is smaller. defeating the nazies is defeating the nra. i don t think that is what he is saying. he is saying what i m saying. we have overcome such bigger things that this really can t, you can t stand up to . jon: why bring that into the comparison? first of all never bring

event. he didn t stand up to rush limbaugh. i think that was an inappropriate discussion to have. megyn: why does the president stand up to bill maher? he said such vile things about so many women. yet the president has taken a million dollars from him. there is a question about whether our president should be associated with him and taking that money and being more forceful to stand up for the women he attacked, including the daughter of sarah palin and others. that money did not come into our campaign. it came into an organization we are not allowed to coordinate with. but time and time again the president has spoke out for civil discourse. i know we all made clear in this organization that bill maher s comments were inappropriate. we did so right when those questions were raised. and i think this was again an indication what she spoke about,
