Put us on a new path with russia, they pressed the fake button of a reset button to show the world we would have a new and different path with russia. i think the media need to understand this hasnt worked. clearly the snowden situation is showing that we dont have any influence over russia, putin is kind of clouding his fingers in our face. senators like chuck schumer need to not just be angry but they need to ask the tough questions about our current policy with russia, because it is clearly n...

Going to be very difficult. we have to use every bit of diplomatic leverage we have right now. the president should be in contact with putin saying that this whole reset button with russia, thats off if putin allows him to leave the country and doesnt send him back to the united states. iceland is a nato ally. we should take whatever action we have to. as far as cuban and venezuela, thats a haven for refugees from american justice. its going to be difficult. also i think its important for the am...

Going to get cooperation from russia holding him and not allowing him to get on a plane and likely not to have leverage with cuba and ecuador? >> were in a very difficult situation. its ironic. this president came in saying how he would fix the relationship with russia, pressing the reset button and now on such a basic issue as this russia is saying no. this really involves or require as direct diplomatic involvement by the u.s. i find it troubling the president has been so quiet on this. again,...

Russian president vladimir putin, well, the meeting, if you can read the body language in the photograph, was just a little bit chilly. the president out of the country avoiding some of the scandals and -- dropping poll numbers at a time when according to this fox news poll americans trust and confidence in government is very low. 63%. so this was the president, jim, who was going to reset -- hit the reset button on the relation was russia. did anybody in the media pick up on that? >> well, john...

Looking to give a speech about reduction of nuclear capabilities in a historic venue. speech pretty thin on substance, and the crowd wasnt wildly interested. it caps a bad trip for the president, starting with the g8, where president putin told him to take a hike on syria. >> what is it with russia? >> i think its continuation of the last ten years. the obama administration came, members of the jurying to press the reset button. relations were frosty because of things the russians were doing at ...

Jenna: yeah. everyone kind of leaning back like this, huh? >>nd jon they did have a handshake at the end, though, as you saw. jenna: interesting. a little more about russian and american relations -- im got to not sit back. i actually like you -- with mike ohanlon coming up. were going to talk about how that figures into syria. there was that reset button, right? we did see that. jon: doesnt seem to have done a whole lot of good. jenna: in the meantime, the chinese purchase of a mining company i...

Contribution that obamas now prepared to make will not make any significant military difference and, in fact, it looks as though obama was backed into it because of his own rhetoric about the assad regime using chemical weapons crossing a red line. i dont think weve had a policy in syria for 2 1/2 years other than pray that the russians will actually do something to remove assad. that was never any part of their strategic vision of the middle east nor has it been any part of irans strategic visi...

>> i was going to say dont the bad guys already know the u.s. government is monitoring their e-mails and phone calls? >> of course they know. the question is how, from what ways, how do they analyze it, and how deep is the context. one would assume they would have to be idiots not to know the united states government is doing everything it can to track them. do the american people revolt? protest against this? do they think the government has gone too far. big brother on steroids. thats an innin...

Doesnt go along with this line of thinking. he says holder did not mislead congress when he testified. also white house press secretary jay carney says he believes the attorney general testified truthfully and he has the presidents backing. jenna. jenna: congress is in recess this week. well see what happens next week when they are all back in town. shannon, thank you. jon: with scandals swirling around the justice department attorney general eric holder desperately needs a reset button. but his...

I also think where the economy is going to be in 2 1/2, 3 years is crucial, right? weve had some really good numbers lately. things seem to be turning around. the question that i would have is, you know, after eight years, this country tends to want to press the reset button, to coin another hillary clinton phrase here. >> so she runs against obama. >> yeah, i mean, who is she actually -- thats the point. who does she sort of run against? i mean, the thing about barack obama that people dont rea...
