during a specific time period at bain capital. now, the governor s campaign is blasting the president s team for their rhetoric and their tactics which he says are below the dignity of the presidency. molly henneberg is live in washington with more. hi, molly. molly: former governor mitt romney has said he left bain capital a private equity firm in early 1999 to head up the 2002 salt lake city olympics but bain filed documents listing romney for three years after that. bain says it was matter of updating the paperwork. but they are highlighting the discrepancy and romney is dishonest and he committed a felony. he is pushing back on that attack. he says obama and his team is resorting to ridiculous claims that is beneath the presidency. in letter. there are a lot of people in this country hurting. the presidency has been unsuccessful in getting people back to work. so they are casting it about to make attacks and save the president s skin and save the campaign. that is not
great if people goes rich, but when i think about my family or michelle s family, you know, what made us rich was spending time together and the idea was the idea was that, you know, if our families were of good character and had good values and you were willing to work hard, then you could find a job that paid a decent wage, and eventually saving up you could own a home. and you knew that you wouldn t go bankrupt when you got sick because you had some health insurance, and maybe you took a vacation every once in a while, and it wasn t necessarily some fancy vacation at some fancy resort. best vacation i had when i was a kid was we my grandmother and my mom and my sister, we traveled around the country on greyhound buses and on trains, and we stayed at howard johnsons and, you know, you i was 11 and so if there was any kind of swimming pool it didn t matter how big it was, right, you d spend the whole day there and then, you know, you were real excited to go to where th
better. behind me, you see the foothills of the front range of the rockies. we re at the air force academy airfield where u.s. forest service is using their air assets, staging air fueling here, sending them to the fire lines to battle the blaze. spot fires on the eastern flank have been less this morning than yesterday. that s good news. that s where the most populated areas are for colorado springs. that s what made this fire so remarkable, kyra. colorado springs as you know is the second largest city in the state of colorado, a huge city. the subdivisions bank up against the front range, and that s where all of the damage was. 346 homes and counting. most destructive wildfire in history. and less than 18,000 acres burned. not huge when you look at the rest of the fires burning in the state, but obviously too close to home, coming down the front range, into the highly populated area of colorado springs. the president is coming in for a visit. what do you know about the tr
all wait to vegas, baby, chasing a long shot and competing for free ivf. we begin with devastation on a historic scale in colorado, and the president is on his way as we speak to survey fire damage after signing a disaster declaration for the state. we re closely monitoring the waldo canyon fire which has become the most destructive fire in the state s history. at least one person was found dead overnight, another is still missing. nearly 17,000 acres scorched. 346 homes gone. 20,000 more threatened. this photo was taken before the fire. look at what the area looks like now. you re looking at the reality for hundreds of families. it was just total shock to see your house pretty much in a fireball. that s our house and it s in flames and i just started crying. there was no way around it. i was never going to go home again, so it s pretty sad. rob marciano on the ground near the waldo canyon fire. rob, how much of this fire have crews been actually able to contain to th
america. we will begin this hour in greece where the voters have spoken in parliment,le bailout, the leader has two more days to form a coalition government. investors around the world are now relieves that greece has not decided to scrap the euro, ditch the bailouts, but what it has decided is anything but clear, unfortunately. but kristine rollins has been watching europe. let s talk about the election and the impact on us right now. i can t overstate the importance of greece to the american economy. it comes at a time when it looks like growth is softening a bit, and greece is the weakest link in europe, and europe is the biggest destination for our exports. so if greece continues to hurt and has uncertainly, and the questions being asked about the euro continue, then you have a problem. you have europe not buying as much stuff as it used to and that is bad for american jobs. so that s a really important part here. also, what greece avoided by this voiavoided something b
