There is no doubt that there are some folks that just really dislike me because they dont like the idea of a black president. A closer look at the poll shows that the people are souring on a president and the view that on specific issues and more people disapprove of the handling of the economy by a 17point margin over those that approve. And by a whopping 21 points in the fox poll. And again by 21 points in the fox survey iran has the disapproval and it goes to 18 points in the fox poll. And this is a trend you would expect the White House Press corps to inquire about after the president has racial comments to new yorker magazine. But not a single request from the White House Press corps for comments during jay carneys hourlong briefing. And perhaps they are he knew the answers. The pentagon today presented the white house with a plan to lead 10,000 troops into afghanistan after the end of this year. And the pentagon also proposes we have almost all of our forces from afghanistan by t

World. Rudy giulianis here tonight with reaction. And a disturbing new video revealed some muslimamericans want sharia law right here in the usa. Plus the crime wave continues. Shootings and Sexual Assaults. Now surging in new york city and beyond. Are liberal politicians to blame . Ainsley reports on the viral videos. Hannity starts right here right now. President obamas completely out of touch with reality. Here is but the latest example. People dont remember when i came into office the United States in World Opinion ranked below china, and just barely above russia. And today once again the United States is the most respected country on earth. And part of that i think, is because of the work we did to reengage the world.

Reporter that wa
