A couple of staterun newspapers running editorials slamming the president reminding him of his lame duck status. Clearly a message thats being sent from the communist government here back to the obama administration. One of those editorials saying, u. S. Society has grown tired of the president s banality. Bush who dared to do everything and obama who dares to do nothing, come from different parties but have the same destiny. Now, white house officials are obviously trying to shrug this off as mere propaganda. The president focusing on this trip on maybe getting some wins on the world stage.

Spending money, try to boost the economy. Hes also working on a broader trade deal with Asian Countries while hes here. But bottom line is he has to get any trade deal through that new republican congress. And those Republican Leaders are

Be there respond but first that white house tonight, ed. Reporter it almost reads like a spy novel. A secret phone call yesterday with the dictator and then clan desten involvement by pope francis.

One of the busiest shopping weeks of the year. Kimberly, back to you. You know, steve you were there in the midst of all the chaos and violence. Ver
