To hell. we didnt. where does if -- it stand now? >> the things you quoted from carnet and administration... this has nothing to do with us or our policies, its about a video is either willfully obtuse or simply clueless. what has happened is, as you pointed out, beginning with the cairo speech, obama changed american policy on the theor theatreason that people hated us was because we were tough. they hated us because of iraq and because of guantanamo. they hated us because of the torture -- he ...

Is going on as we speak with putin. we dont know how putin is going to respond to pressure from the u.s. to basically throw assad under the bus. >> the underlying issue in all this is american power and really, how much american power do we have and how much should we exert. i mean, theres an old school that thinks look, americas the indispensable nation, nothing has changed, just keep going the way we are. and the younger people around obama who tend to say well, it would be nice but we just do...

Government. so i think we should be very concerned. i think the president should speak out. if you remember, in the cairo speech, he never mentioned the copti christians. they have been there longer than everyone. they have given egypt over $50 billion and its very difficult if youre a christian to even get a job in government. >> and the election comes up. your reaction -- what should we be doing in syria, if anything? >> we should be looking for a regime change. >> and working towards it? >> e...

you see him here with governor perry. in his introduction he did not use the word cult or specifically attack romney by name but there was no doubt he had the former massachusetts governor in mind when he drew there is contrast. >> do we want a candidate who is skilled in rhetoric or one skilled in leadership? do we want a candidate who is a conservative out of convenience or one who is a conservative out of deep conviction? do we want a candidate who is a good, moral person or do we w...

Did talk a little bit about the terror mastermind in yemen, al-awlaki being taken out. and it was interesting, were going to play the soundbite for you but essentially what he was saying was, you know, this obama administration, good job taking this guy out. but theyve got a lot of nerve. theyre hypocritical. they have complained about argues of enhanced interrogation techniques, and yet, here they go and vaporize this guy with a couple of hellfire missiles. heres the former vice president. >> t...

East peace and global politics at stake, theyre playing political games here? >> again, let me say something earlier. i said todays speech was good. i agree with netanyahu. im agreeing with netten yaw hue. im kind of echoing what ed koch said and what the voters that elected bob turners said, that previous statements have expressed some equivocation, if will you, on the part of the president. >> what statement? >> the speech was kind of establishing an equivalency between israel and palestine, a...

Thing that george bush said. >> isnt that a good thing? what was good about the speech is the president unequivocally linked it to first there being peace. if there is peace, then there can be a two-state solution. thats a good thing. this republican applauds that, and thats something that should have been echoed all the way up to the speech as well. congressman, i recall when last year he said we should have the mind state if we have advanced towards peace. hes not saying anything different now...

collapsed last year. the miners say they want to make sure something like this never happens again. and sears has a lot of disappointed shoppers today. online shoppers jumped on a deal for apple ipad 2s advertised for just $69. bear in mind they normally sell for more than $700. they said its a third-party mistake and not honoring the incorrect price. people love their cars, traffic jams are part of the daily life, but this weekend, the closure of a big chunk of the 405 freeway is ca...

The middle east is concerned, can he walk the walk. and i think, in fact, that all these speeches and all this public diplomacy that has been going on for two years has led us nowhere. neither has the cairo speech, nor have other speeches. and i think that maybe this is precisely because the process has been so public, that nothing has happened. its become more of a press conference than a negotiation. everybody has been posturing, and you know, ive said this before, and i do believe it, there a...

Where youve got to weigh a lot of different factors, you know it may not come out perfectly in the end, youre not really certain exactly who is in that opposition to gadhafi, yet you know that you dont want a slaughter in benghazi. how can you be anything but nuanced in a situation like that? the other thing ive been thinking about and somebody mentioned to me this today, when we look back historically, i think it will be interesting to figure out what role did that cairo speech by president oba...
