I'm less than woods where we do a lot of research out there -- -- newsroom -- and did you know that apparently.
-- talk to Katie Holmes is dating Jake Gyllenhaal know.
Did you I think much that I know I did not know about them physically anybody the table I'd read the bedroom was actually unfounded -- -- positive.
Well it's it's it's here on the Internet so they calling it a moment ago.
All right well let's let's get straight to it's all right let's go to LA as an but it was not but they'll know it won't be -- that part of about two minutes okay.
Yeah well look there's been a lot of talk a lot of people clamoring allotted Twitter people want to know what the numbers of -- close out 2012 that's -- -- the Wenger GAAP.
As you can see hair off over this and this is quarterly basis but for the entire year up 22% this rockets.
Oddly enough -- were flat through the course of the year.
I would use is interesting and and -- unexplainable offense their values a lot of concern over this 2012 of course we all know what the calculation -- to come up with a faster values we see -- so.
You can do your own -- at home.
I'm sure you will -- IP NL.
News Corp.
very pleased with a sandy and enemies and everybody including me keeping our jobs for another year top line revenue up 13%.
With a very healthy bottom line -- -- -- -- -- Percent gasoline went 4% of the -- and everything else in the Nevada that's after -- -- at the clock yeah wow I don't know this is out.
That is my Twitter think there.
Now they have Hannity.
Wolf you know what -- Because you asked Andy yeah.
Why don't I no reason number 23 I had a morning flight this morning at 5:30 AM leaving Idaho.
My time of departure from my home.
-- for 45 in the morning that's amazing.
That's incredible that I had plenty of time to talk to Hank to TSA and get a cup of coffee and moxie -- excellent and then going to play and sneak your weapon on board the planes hit.
And of course yes yes what kind of ceramic dish around guns.
By the way -- come to go to a comet that rob made rob but because I I I don't wanna forget this.
You said that there acorn story one which lest we forget was by the journal gun map right that the media tends to -- to -- -- gun owners of crazy -- your quote was like people in I don't know Idaho Idaho I segment tonight.
Specifically technically today I don't you tell me -- today is there's nothing to show that he.
I think I'll tell you.
But then again I don't forget how -- yeah.
-- couldn't explain it to them off camera about that that the -- talked about with a business you know what -- it.
It's not a bottom line I just correct you a little bit -- the bottom line and margins not a bottom line mark.
Well you get the bottom line but we're running back healthy Bob margin on the bottom radical -- percent exactly -- -- yeah yeah he and -- but its profit and loss that -- ideas for stand in there exactly got -- -- -- ask you got above line performance you -- line performance.
You're ever again right exactly I'm all -- -- Who by the -- got map story.
You have -- said whether we all become such drama queens.
Apparently according to research on the Internet February 18 2009.
Plus good enough so you were you were close thanks Obama even more and you -- not -- very interesting point as a mother you said with a kindergarten they're not tied to have it a kindergartners.
You said that one possible point of this -- map could be to check and see if any of your kids' friends are gun owners.
-- the question about that begs the question what would you do if you found out that we.
-- why it's so what you do you don't let your child play with the other kids.
Look at -- like what you what you don't know doesn't hurt you sometimes because the chances of something horrible happening are so slim.
However in new account if you happen and it happens several times -- that's -- so.
I don't think there's an answer to this I really struggling with the whole gun debate right now personally.
Mad men are presenting to this I think yeah -- I think that under no circumstances whatsoever so George can garner.
I never get anywhere near Vegas can about that man -- a -- guy and and I don't mind the bad guys -- secure its rockets do not talk about scooter like -- is a fine young man you know I just don't I don't even given name -- got himself a new girlfriend now but what got a job.
Stick with.
Job I'd -- -- I think you are you're you're actually hot spot on -- said that of the purpose of this gun that was basically -- -- people who are legal gun owners that's right now.
Yeah I think people also forget that someone like you can kill a hoard of people with just and well thank god -- went where president yeah exactly what do you you know what you gonna do but what do you what -- -- what do you think this is going to -- -- -- said she -- know what is going -- I think a lot of people -- You generate a lot of outrage -- Where do you think this is gone what's your best guess.
You know I don't know because I'm not even sure what they -- trip from -- from the start.
You know then they said they were gonna publish the gun owners' names from -- neighboring county so I did not learning any kind of -- so.
We'll -- -- what -- they could also it was published that there armed guards are supposed to be there at least until today so the armed guards I think I'm leaving this week for -- whoever you know.
Right to.
Mount -- campaign.
Well absolutely and -- daddy daddy you mentioned.
You mentioned that didn't that there was legislation that was in the works yes -- that would make this sort of information obviously that the databases and it identifies.
Legal gun owners would make that private not accessible to the public right.
Do you agree with the legislation.
Yeah I'm -- -- that there.
Yeah also I think we did its permit -- right it's not actual weapons -- right it's department -- its permit only got him kind of pistol from which which oftentimes will indicate who.
That was motivated -- to go out -- by what happened.
But -- -- -- -- -- -- believe it might have been Joseph made a good point -- by how about a database of of illegal gun owners.
Yeah I also like that we have this sort of this court clerk who's like it down below to listen -- my heart.
Which is I think what you want to see the public employee behavior that's enough -- -- -- it.
Well I -- I -- -- again I'm a firm believer in Second Amendment.
And and I'm very concerned that the government's gonna do something that is typically in a knee jerk reaction in the course of this sad sad story as they often do when they try to push something through but that's just me on my soapbox.
Going to story number -- we don't have much time left the fiscal -- tax incentives -- you're in favor of the Hollywood incentives.
Why not.
Nick Price to get I'm scared to comment further not a I don't know but it it was a very it was a -- -- acted it good debate between you went and rob.
Rob being -- -- somewhat more of a skeptical about the purpose of these incentives and yeah insider and I'm looking at it from the business perspective.
If anybody is watching.
Later on they -- Tebow this thing I would suggest you go during the course of that Lori and rob debate and won't -- the middle of that there's a clip of bill.
Staring -- -- -- -- warm mostly.
That it into the camera and I think that what we should do -- we should find that Clinton of course that the -- we should freeze it in an effort to show it later on in the show who those means yeah I'm watching right now does want to ask Jeff Brady Bunch of with the -- -- I know you said no more subsidies -- felt the same way.
May I just point out that 82% of all private sector companies that receive funding from this administration in the course of the past four years failed.
There could -- that doesn't work in the global I would like to say if I could set off I just got back to -- from France and I think that's a right now since yesterday.
I should also just point out that a 2% figure I just I just pulled right out of my hands and made -- yeah that was made up and raw -- the free speech Robby made a very -- -- point off camera.
I'd like to bring that up because of that this very good you didn't just come back from France and I won't need your -- by the -- at the end of the shelf that's.
God it's such a -- -- what's the big news in France now being used in France.
Is that the 75% tax rate which for the president Francois Holmes wanted to Levy on rich people has been declared unconstitutional.
By the French Supreme Court so that's a socialist government.
Social Supreme Court saying high taxes on the rich are unconstitutional.
Unlike our Supreme Court here are socialist.
Paris where wallowing in irony right now it's so absolutely wallowing in its -- and now my leg right now.
Not only an attic we got so much more but I'm out of time.
Brilliant man now turning into.
You sold that I did exactly -- on the weekend I might receive -- victim of John.
