Time now for the after the show show Gretchen is leaving to go do Brian Kilmeade the radio show and in Brian's place today we had done Peter Johnson Jim -- yes -- -- -- -- everybody to Bryant well okay it's 9 o'clock in the morning on Columbus Day.

Most of the country has got the day off because it's a federal state and right we will -- -- literally it was all right -- all evil Alter we've actually worked so yeah now.

We've got the rest of the day to do what major major law office close the door opened today no -- -- No people of legal problems -- that but will we get a go to the parade today he would -- Michael in the parade.

We'll start examining.

Every great to say -- I wish I could my daughter Mary -- town okay she she took off the long weekend for Columbus Day and my wife and I -- gonna driver back to Philly.

Today about 11 o'clock which is about the time that the -- a tale of get caught in the -- if you just go for both the.

Well it's it's it's it's a good day.

It's interesting day in -- in the news.

Yeah a lot of interest -- -- -- Mitt Romney's gonna get out there.

With these new foreign policy address them today.

Big -- car crash at Talladega.

Luckily nobody was hurt rate that we see that red bold guy.

So we went out it's anybody's -- -- what how many miles he got to be a 600 miles an hour -- Down -- -- over a hundred miles and -- -- from this government accountability what institute.

Saying they've done is -- hundred page study about.

Federal campaigns and kind of targeted.

And looked at closely the Obama campaign about whether they're receiving foreign contributions.

Whether they're checking out the credit card numbers right who's giving these hundreds of thousands of different contributions.

That don't have to be reported nuts I think that'll be in the news -- -- for a little bit absolutely Peter because apparently about half of all the traffic to the Obama web sites.

It's coming from international sources and so they don't know how many people internationally are donating to the president's campaign.

And if they are from another country.

That is simply illegal and they -- -- what I've forgotten.

Is that it's illegal to accept the contribution right from a non citizen right.

But it's also illegal to even solicit.

From a non.

Since and so and this is good question for lawyers to ask you can't accept so if you if you've got a web site and it's just open in apparently.

Obama dot com is not owned by -- the president and it's owned by one of his butlers who lives in Shanghai and it re direct storm.

-- if if you simply are says you know you're providing the portal.

Argue soliciting.

That's a good legal question at -- when the Federal Election Commission or US attorneys -- have to -- it shouldn't it -- a big letters yeah.

You're not limited I -- I thought I thought about it is how do you track.

Those contributions -- because.

Under 200 dollars you don't have to report them.

So any federal campaign can take.

Pass the -- contributions as they say if it's a 10200 dollars right you don't have to reported those names don't -- lop.

On the Internet have you may have to -- 5300 dollars Steve Doocy Johnson.

Then it's gonna show up sure -- -- how do you track that.

And apparently one of the problems is the president's web sites don't have when it comes to getting money doesn't have that little security code and it doesn't ask for it.

Mitt Romney's does Amazon.com does.

Hop over stock dot com does.

Apparently about half of the congressional offices don't do it either so this is this a -- that's what is so series.

We've brought some serious talking about breaking -- stuff like that.

On reasonable I blame I blame my John Kerry for me being -- Did you -- now they're blaming.

The Obama camp over the weekend was blaming John Kerry -- the president's dismal debate performance because John Kerry was training.

You know doing debate prep with them.

Because he wants to be secretary.

You know he wasn't really bad.

And is now we talked about this the end and this is we don't but as you know today.

You know.

We didn't think that Romney would say these things so we were surprised by that.

We -- -- he'd be like empathetic -- nice guy so we were going to be able to campaign has met Rummy there that approach now is Mitt Romney is a liar always a liar.

Al Gore says it's -- too -- in in Denver.

-- is a -- Ryan is is out of control the real thing you know watch this week is what does Joseph Biden is in the saying.

We talked about it today Joseph Biden is going to be put a room basically -- for six days.

-- -- -- -- -- -- talking points with Jill Biden so I want to know with a guy is -- as the Joseph Biden -- vice president Joseph listen.

These are the ten lines that you can use we have -- -- -- to -- situation.

Do not.

Use any other line.

-- -- -- -- that line right we're going down here to just use these so they get set -- live writers.

Yeah okay.

Noticing that -- -- you know this is the it's the -- it's the equivalent of a hook.

Yet it's because -- -- -- -- we really tired really don't always a lot of things like five minutes we get five -- in the our friends here on the floor have replaced the producers.

We now pull out the music comes up we -- You really just want to direct.
