kay owes in cairo. a spinning move parliament illegitimate and the military announced it was over. the same parliament egyptians have spent months voting for in their first votes ever. one tweet from a human rights activist said, egypt just witnessed the smoothest military coup. we'd be outraged if we weren't so exhausted. chaos erupted in the streets of cairo and tahrir square as people gathered. it comes just two days ahead of the presidential election. now this election pits a mubarak loyalist that the military supports against a muslim brotherhood candidate. that it doesn't. it doesn't seem to be a cowibs dense that the brotherhood was the single biggest party in the parliament dissolved today. how did america get egypt so wrong? i remember being in cairo covering the revolution not even 18 months ago. it was inspiring and it was uplifting. it was a moment i'll never forget. president obama, like so many other americans, was moved. by a revolution that toppleled a dictator who had ruled for almost 30 years. >> we can't help but hear the echoes of history. echoes from germans staring down a wall. indonesian students taking to the streets. gandhi leading his people down the path of justice. >> gandhi leading his people down the path of justice. today a far cry from when the president said that. when he said the word tahrir means liberation. this weekend's election is going ahead and the military promises it will be fair although the eurasia group tells us it is now, quote, clearly perceived to be rigged. the two candidates, ahmed shafik, the last prime minister under mubarak himself, is the military's favored candidate. and mohamed morsi is the muslim brotherhood candidate. they're powerful men invested in a status quo that can be damning. we showed you this. an egypt where eighth grade social studies today, this year, that students are learning from, teach students that, quote, treason and treachery are key attributes of jewish people. a country where 91% of women have experienced genital mutilation. a country where one young woman told me recently that islamists tried to shut down her nonprofit organization because it tried to help single women get jobs. they said, why would you do that? why would a woman be single? you're telling women to not get married. she should be at home. that's where she belongs. a country where at a rally last month for the muslim brotherhood presidential candidate, mohamed morsi, this happened. [ speaking foreign language ] >> banish the sleep from the eyes of the jews. that was the cleric that was introducing the presidential candidate mohamed morsi. now we face a volatile country in a volatile part of the world. this man has covered egypt extensively. with me along with the reporter of the american enterprise institute. in so many levels, this is, today, what happened, seems to be very tragic. how did it happen? >> airngs democratic transitions are marathons, not sprints. we supported the orange revolution in ukraine. almost a decade ago to this day. one of the champions of this is sitting in jail on a hunger strike. what happened in egypt is perceived as a setback. it's as if the last year of progress they've felt has been wiped away and this soft coup has taken place. they're exhausted, as your tweeter said, but they're going to keep the pressure on, to make sure the military doesn't completely, you know, grasp power forever. >> danielle, there's a great irony in this. the mubarak era judges and the military that were behind what happen today, their candidate, shafik, is the candidate most people would acknowledge the west and the united states wants. the west and the united states isn't really excited about the muslim brotherhood candidate. the guy who was introduced with "banish the sleep from all the eyes of the jews." i mean, this is an irony, isn't it? >> well, the irony is, you know, as i think prag said rightly that we are sitting by while egypt's revolution has been turned backwards it the biggest part of the problem is west and the arab world have all sort of averted their eyes as egypt has returned to a modicum of authoritarianism. the problem is the military has been taking back power for some time now. and everybody has been a little bit quietly applauding. >> that is the kind of dirty secret about it. the west wants the military's guy. the nondemocratic side of this in today's news to win. >> haven't we already learned the hard way when you think your guy, your man who holds power, he's actually in control, that in fact he isn't? we have to learn to play all sides and to understand that the people have a voice, that constitutions matter. the parliament is going to be very influential. whether or not it's controlled by the brotherhood. because whoever's in it is going to demand that there be a new kind of government, a separation of powers. something we should be supporting. >> danielle what should the united states do about this? because you can play this out and say there are many, obviously, some sympathetic to the muslim brotherhood today who are saying this is a disaster. this could be the first step towards egypt becoming an iran on steroids. that is obviously coming from one political side of the spectrum. how real is the risk? >> well, i think the problem is that it's not one political side of the spectrum or the other. you know, for many country, it's far more comfortable to deal with a dictator. everybody likes one-stop shopping. the problem is we really do rely on this one guy. and we continue to embrace that model. we've done very little over the last year and a half to help egypt institution build. we've done very little to help all of those people who were in the middle of tahrir square actually build political parties. the biggest failure here has been that egypt has been divided between mubarak retreads and islamists. there really isn't anybody in the middle who represents the liberal, the people who actually led part of this revolution. that's the tragedy. >> of course, that is what takes a long time, the country that's not been a democracy for -- ever, thousands of years of history. what really is the risk to the united states if this goes deeply wrong? most populous country in the arab world. if it does go -- i mean, wrong, if democracy leads you in the direction that is much more radical? >> right. it's not that it's going to taint democracy per se because we know these transitions take a very long time. obviously there is many countries, in the persian gulf for example, that will say, look how we maintained. whether this arab spring storm maintains stability and economic growth, this is a better model, something that's more technocratic -- >> what's the risk to the u.s. if it goes awry? >> already we see the tendency in the egypt foreign policy, a much harder line on israel, and it's resistant to u.s. pressure. we don't want to be overly meddling. if we're seen as supporting mubarak too much or shafik too much, that will lead to a backlash. we have to lay low. >> thanks very much to both of you. for everyone out there, it's the -- shafik, the guy who's run, the military guy, it was under him, that textbook being about treason being attributes of jewish people. and the brotherhood guy is the one saying banish the sleep from the eyes the jews. hard to see who's the good guy. still ahead "outfront," the president has a big meet ing with supporters tonight. why is he shy about it?

why not let everybody see who's going into your event? after all, we're going to be able to see their donations on paper if we want to look that hard. >> i would challenge the premise a little bit. i think the president does allow most of his fund-raising events to be pool press, maybe not the rest of the time where he's out shaking hands or the q & a. most of them have formal remarks as pool press or at least photographers. >> we couldn't get any of the 19 celebrity ones. >> i think probably -- more eager to see george clooney and sarah jessica parker than barack obama at some of those fund-raisers. but let's look at romney. who didn't have his first open fund-raiser of any kind till may. till last month. it was the first time he had an open fund-raiser. so mitt romney has been incredibly secretive not only with fund-raisers but with his bundlers and also with his tax returns. he only let out one year. meanwhile, my last point, he met with sheldon adel son the last time he was in nevada. sheldon adelson today or yesterday, sometime this week, $10 million donation to his super pac. the president has 19 fund-raisers. raised $50 million. romney has one meeting with one billionaire, $10 million, then his super pac. i think it's a bigger deal there than sarah jessica parker. >> he had his pen out, squibble scribbling, looking very distressed. >> there was a little off the record fund-raiser obama had in 2008 at which a roort reporter for the huffington post said obama talked about voters who are bitter and cling to guns. a white house that leaks like a sieve. i could see why he would be more open. again, someone might leak from them. better to be prepared for that prospect -- >> couldn't resist, huh? leaks like a sieve? >> who knows what else is going to be said? a wonderful report which showed when you look at the small dollar folks who raised money for obama in 2008, about 90% of them have not opened their wallets this time around. so of course president obama is going to cling as tightly to celebrities as pennsylvania voters cling to their guns and religion, because needs to raise money. >> well constructed. you worked on that one, didn't you? >> that's why the pen was out, the scribbling. >> all doodles. >> politicians rely a lot on hollywood for fund-raising. i think it's true in this circle as well. wall street becomes the republican's hollywood. the irony in all this, we've only had one literal hollywood president and it was ronald reagan. >> hold on one second. let's not blow past the fact that mitt romney does not release his bundlers. barack obama does release his bundlers. romney is raising billions of dollars from this oligarch billionaires. while the president has not been able to do that with the wall street folks. the celebrities is all fun and interesting. meanwhile, these sort of shadow which businessmen who are giving money -- >> when you heard they auctioned off dinner with anna wintour, did you do a little fist pump? >> no, because i saw "devil wears prada," i admit it. >> the numbers on romney. hollywood to the president is actually more important, jamal, numberswise, than wall street is to mitt romney. that's actually not -- we'll look at the other screen, the financial industry one. mitt romney, $29.8 million. 3.4 for barack obama. the number from hollywood for obama was 51. kind of interesting, john. >> hollywood is an important export industry for the united states. >> yes, it is. >> we should respect it. >> could be our greatest export. >> absolutely. i don't think there's anything intrinsically wrong. but certainly the optics are problematic. seems as though the president enjoys spending time with his celebrity fans. and also -- when you're looking at the small dollar donors -- >> who doesn't? i mean, mitt romney -- if you got to hang out with angelina jolie -- >> when you look at the small another commentary on the state of our larger economy. you know what i mean? >> final word to jamal. >> let's just have a little perspective. hollywood did not almost tank the entire global economy in 2008 and 2009. >> just global culture and society, jamal, that's all, hey, you know. i'm kidding. i'm kidding. separate issue. >> -- wall street in 2008. >> george clooney was not responsible for, you know, taking -- >> you know president obama's happy to raise money from wall street in 2008. >> he's raising it for -- they don't really want to give it to him. >> i'll take it. >> you're running for president, you take it from almost anywhere you can get it. there's got to be somebody you'd say no to. please. still ahead, the apple number that will amaze you. and what you should know before you buy your next computer. a doctor with a military background on the run from police after his ex-girlfriend died. those running the manhunt, how they plan to catch him.

france got another downgrade today by egan jones. some of its plans to tighten up on things like pensions. cutting the retirement age to 60. our third story out front. another dramatic day of testimony in the case against former penn state assistant football coach jerry sandusky. his defense team may have finally scored some points. one alleged victim testified sandusky touched him inappropriately but it didn't exactly add up to what he told a detective in 1998. jean casarez is a correspondent with "in session" on trutv. jean, let me start with what you heard today. saying the defense has had a terrible few days. it looked like they had some points today. one of the victims saying what he said in 1998 when he first talked to authorities about this is different than what he said today? >> well, i think the main point that the cross examination made with alleged victim number six is that this young man, and he's 25 years old now, has continued a relationship with jerry sandusky. last summer, he was in town and asked to borrow his car. he went out to lunch with jerry sandusky and his wife. so the defense is saying, wait a minute, if he did something to you in 1998, why are you still going out to eat with him? the young man, the accuser, said, you know, i was 11 years old then and when jerry took me in that shower and he touched me and he lifted me up, and i truly blacked out, don't remember exactly what happened. i didn't understand it at that point. but now once investigators came to me and said we are reopening your investigation from 1998 and said i really realize that it's wrong. by the way, he just graduated from college, bible college, and that's the direction he wants his life to go. >> the defense also there were three victims. one of them -- victim number three also testified. this was very sad to hear. talking about how he felt when jerry san dusky -- when the relationship broke off. he made me feel like i was part of the family. he gave me things i had never had before. when asked -- they asked, did you like jerry sandusky, and he responded, i loved him. we've heard similar things now from 8 of the 10 alleged victims in the case. can the defense get past these sorts of -- these emotional human stories, sentences like that? >> you know, i think it's very, very hard to imagine the defense getting around us. when i see criminal cases usually tried by good attorneys, you see an escape hash. you see something that jurors can follow to say he's not guilty in this case. when you look at all of the evidence that has come in, the number of victims, all describing similar conduct, the janitor testimony the other day. remember, one janitor heard another janitor say, i saw something that was one of the worst things i'd ever seen in my life, what motive did they have to lie? but my point is, where's the escape hatch here? where are jurors going to find reasonable doubt? i'm not seeing it in the evidence that's been presented so far. there's got to be a miracle pass come up by the defense i think in order to assume a jury might find him not guilty. >> jean, before i ask you sort of what you're hearing about how the defense may proceed, i want to ask one other thing. victim nine, horrific tale. this seems to involve doty, jerry sandusky's wife. when the child was being abused, at one point, cried out for help, he said at a level she would have heard. she was upstairs and did not answer. >> that's right. that's right. and, you know, times you save the best for last. this is one of the most serious cases that prosecutors say from what we believe is their last witness. this young man also alleged, there's no other way to say it, anal sex, the most serious charge here against sandusky. the defense has dottie sandusky on their witness list so they may call her to say nobody ever screamed in my house at all. >> you're saying dottie may testify. what else are you hearing about the defense's plan to proceed? >> what we're hearing -- we're hearing more than 60 witnesses. i don't think they're going to call all 60. the family members. the adopted children of sandusky on that list. also, a defense called histrionic syndrome. a mental issue that you just try to please everybody and you want the attention and you're very aggressive. even you can be sexually aggressive but it's not for sexual purposes. it's just that you're trying to get attention. they want to get an expert before the jury. >> before we go you're saying you don't see an escape hatch, does that mean sandusky will take the stand? >> i think in most cases you would say don't put him on but, you know, here they've already put him on television, the defense attorneys. he's told his story at least in part. he's very egotistical. he walks around like nothing's happened. smiling every day in the film we see. i have a feeling his ego is going to force him on to the witness stand. regardless of what his lawyers say. ultimate hail mary pass, the testimony from jerry sandusky. a manhunt under way tonight. who disappeared after his ex-girlfriend was shot and killed. he is wanted in connection to the death of a woman shot to death wednesday morning. jordan spent 18 years in the military. he's being pursued by local, state and federal authorities. according to the buffalo police commissioner. >> -- target incident that took place was not a random act but should be considered armed and dangerous. >> this is a former fbi assistant director. how did they go about finding -- how do you go about a manhunt like this, finding him? >> you contact everybody that he may go to for assistance whether it's parents, brother, sister, children, work colleagues, other friends, associates. you contact as many people that would know him to find out where he's going to go, where he's likely to go. especially if at some point a fugitive needs money, they need assistance, and they will leave an electronic trail. he's not going to be able to use his own credit cards or own atm cards for long because they will be trackable by the authorities. >> he spent many years in the military. the description of the way she was killed is a precision shot. former weapons expert special forces. what does that mean in terms of how likely he is to be dangerous to anybody else in. >> well, he could be dangerous. he could be dangerous to the authorities. he could get desperate. try to do a car jacking or a home invasion to seek refuge. if he thinks someone is going to betray him or not help him in some way with his escape plan, he could be very dangerous. >> how long does it usually take to find people? you've done this so many times. how long till -- most likely, you know, historically, he's found? >> couple hours to couple decades. but i think in this case it will probably be a lot sooner than that. you also have a possibility he may turn himself in. he may realize that because authorities know that he would have weapons capability and skill, he may feel that it would be best for him to turn himself in. normally in a case like this with someone who is not an organized plan figure, hasn't placed money in overseas. if all of that's true, it will be difficult for him to stay on the run for very long. i think within a couple of days even he could end up being apprehended. >> thanks very much, tom, appreciate it. next, days before the greek election, a disturbing trend about the children -- the country's children. this is a really -- really sad story but one we think you really would want to hear. another case of the flesh eating virus in the united states. a man who knows what to do.

>> absolutely. we're thankful every day. we can only say we've been blessed by god throughout this entire process. yes. we know that the odds were very very slim. she had about a 1% chance of survival but she remains with us today and is doing well. >> that's amazing. that 1%, it's incredible. i know you saw her today. what did she say? >> well, today basically, she was actually having a little bit of pain today. she is sea experiencing phantom pain in her hands, in her arms where her hands used to be. she said it feels like her hands are inside of her forearms trying to get out. i can't imagine what that must be like. she's up beat, positive and hopeful about her future. >> that's hard to hear and hard to image, i have to say, andy. obviously her physical recovery is going to be very long. i know last time we had spoken she didn't know what happened and obviously now she does. when did she understand and how was she able to actually process that? >> well, it's interesting because the doctors, when they told us that they recommended the amputation of her hands and her foot, i asked them if i could go and break the news to her about her legs. she had been complaining about pain in her leg and asked us to move her leg that wasn't there. so when i went in there and broke it to her, i was concerned with the reaction we would get from her. but when i talked to her about it, she looked at us and we told her about the amputation of her hand. she said i'm confused but i'll figure it out and she looked at her hands and said let's do this, referring to the amputation, which blew me away, the courage that she displayed. >> let's do this? >> yes. in fact we've kind of taken that slogan, we've got a t-shirt we've designed, a good friend of hers designed a t-shirt, i've got a t-shirt for you, erin, we're going to be offering this t-shirt in amy weekend, and there's some guys that action accords cody and spencer who are gracious enough to donate 500 shirts for us to sell to help raise money for amy's prosthesis. so when you have that kind of a coming together it tells you we've been truly blessed through this. the way people have reached out to us. >> your ability to talk about it and share it i have to say is truly incredible. how has it been for you? i mean, seeing your daughter go through this and also having, i mean this has to be your whole life, but you have to work, you have to pay for these bills, how has it been for you and your family? >> that's, you know, the tough part. i will tell you this. i work for a company that's been extraordinarily supportive of us. edward jones is the company i worked for and they reached out to us and said we're here to help you, you just tell us what you need. they've supported me in amazing ways that i can't begin to describe. we've had people offer to help pay for amy's prosthesis. we've had home depot has stepped up and offered to supply us with the materials it takes to do the renovations to our house. i've had independent contractors, general contractors, rather, step up to offer the labor to do the job of the so it seems like where -- wherever we turn people are there to help us. i've never experienced anything like this in my life. >> thank you so much andy. next, george w. bush, his head was literally on a spike. it's a joke, but it is not our joke. next.
