Back we'll find that hasn't done anything wrong so far that we gonna get an idea of how did -- come good again got a lot wrong and he I kind of that feeling -- Want to go to -- firsts and we're talking about immigration here feisty little topic and -- You said that you would ask these immigrants what their favorite TV show is to sort of find one out more about them you know are they home all day.

What you do what they said -- -- what does that tell us about them.

That they're lying because nobody could give that answer is needed.

Sure hope that I cigarette I had my -- Brit I would never say that you would never say that now that's terrible -- that I would screamed liar.

Hello my hands -- -- -- image and you name.

You -- I think the best two points of this segment so congratulation cup I don't you go there expecting that -- thank you did a great job you said first off to that if people come here illegally.

You come here dishonorably and use sort of talked about why those people shouldn't be rewarded.

Now I agree with that point but I want to ask you how can we make -- that up politically palatable.

Argument in this country.

I've I don't set three stages immigration and wanted to go to these -- -- residency green -- what you pay tax on life to America wet heavy -- end up.

-- -- I'm not saying that people became really you shouldn't get residency shouldn't take tax would like to America wherever they end up you know what I'm saying is is that they -- -- -- -- -- at the moment but Republicans and Democrats saying that they should have a public assistance it.

I'm saying is they shouldn't talk to residency yes and if they came pretty -- as a child yes I think they should have -- systems hit.

You can -- as an I don't disown the patent why should you have to fundamental.

Amazing gift of being a citizen cannot -- haren and -- -- -- -- -- get.

I agree -- PO I just trying to figure out how the Republican Party can make that argument against a path to citizenship.

And still have -- be as successful argument and not be -- -- do you think that's possible.

I think that it should be possible let me also say that -- experiencing that immigrants pure -- Haiti he doesn't often talk about it and I didn't feel brave enough -- about -- company and tell.

Today when -- -- -- any I don't because it.

He's today and I couldn't eat because it was a Monday and everybody else was -- what.

Sayyaf I was I was genuinely very frightened and I I feel right on XP here is very hot princess to be hair and it should be -- -- as -- I guess as a but I guess you know has an immigrant.

Bill I have to go to you you've talked about.

-- that it was kind of anti immigrant to hold up a sign and say that if you're on welfare your own government assistance or you don't have a job.

You are not welcome.

And I completely see your point on the only thing -- don't have to draw the line at some point don't we have to do.

Saying that if you're if you're not financially self sufficient and you can't just sort of go on the government dole and cost taxpayers a ton more money because we're broke out -- The mind that I don't understand the line I guess I just can't seem to me like they actually had specific.

Talking point as to why it.

One person looks less employable or less solvent and another on the coming in this country -- a lot of cases there and the same financial dire straits perhaps yeah -- and still be employable.

Even running down the rug -- -- that's the part I don't get I don't know kind of explanation.

-- -- -- and -- you talked about the leaks plan and what would be we talked up what what would Obama's motivation being well obviously just so sure.

But -- yeah.

Yeah owning the argument I think he he really likes to be the guy in power and I think that a lot of talk of bipartisanship it's fun.

But he wants to be the guy that proves to everyone on the one who's on top of this plans that we Republicans about we plan he can still say why I had it first my plan -- -- and -- be in the back of everyone's mind use that watt.

I mean I think that's largely correct it gives him the position where he gets to go out there thank.

I'm demanding a plan this is the plan that -- -- wants and I'm putting it forward even if -- you know leaking it.

And but it's also good way to work with is allies across the Iowa on the issue.

Which allows them to stand up and you know attack the president but that will avoid flak from the conservative based on the -- Yeah I agree with you I agree I we got -- -- -- because that's so hot topic apparently.

I have to go to bill first because billions sending you are a decorated veteran of the war on Christmas.

And if that's true I wanna know why you shell but my house every night at -- -- Well -- Santa suit me.

All right Campbell let me it's ridiculous that the missile.

I did a great guy and I didn't realize that you are back to coworker -- Finishing the problem is it's just the top half of this -- -- well I'm Santa Ana Porky Pig and it isn't and a terribly is not prevention.

Andy the problem is that he comes with the Santa suit and he's got no cookies and he's got no -- -- like to think of myself as the Selena yeah let's not -- -- on the gifts from bill never go away.

Yeah I don't wait for the -- whom few little why stop nobody.

He's buying you glad you've been moving loudly yeah I'm -- I different.

I -- let fear.

-- -- I would like to also point out in general that Barack Obama did not address this wiccan controversy in the state of the union so I'm going to assume that he is and -- -- -- I dislike someone to note that for the record noted.

I can noted that I think yeah.

-- you actually you said.

-- good point you say there are a lot of people who are weakens out there so why we're gonna acknowledge all of these other holiday is why can't we acknowledge these as well.

I tend to kind of agree with you in the -- however can you really acknowledge them all -- beginning -- a point where kids are never in school and never have to do their homework because there -- so many holidays we have to work around.

-- but every religion has its major holidays slash festivals so.

You know I don't I don't -- the promise as I said I don't I don't think the school should be shut down I understand -- you know.

Businesses whatever shut down our Christmas because we are majority Christian nation bio by a lot.

So that that makes complete sense but I still think you let people whose religion is is is smaller.

You let them celebrate their holidays whether they're Jewish whether they're -- and whether there have neo pagan whatever.

Yeah I have cracked I agree that's a good point.

I gotta get over a ball -- really quickly and I just want to say to anti.

The fact that he delete his tweets all the time that he says these terrible things and then -- -- them does that make him look guilty right from the get out.

-- to -- result do you that's terrible.

Not to keep my time likely.

It's not a delete anything that's -- this controversial right to -- a lot of that -- I I just think it makes them look guilty you're right I would know what happened is he -- them and that his publicist sees them and say you shouldn't she really should've should've -- that and any place.

-- I let's see I think we're almost done not done.

Fasteners.

Yeah okay well -- I had one -- -- never mind talking to your producer we're having a conversation on the side but I -- you guys can go finish off.

-- I see you tomorrow the --
