Page 4 - Setup Piece News Today

American diplomacy. im glad you brought up 1986 in your setup piece, but this is much bigger and nobody can think of another expulsion this size. and yet, the white house, the president of the united states, is silent. its extraordinary. i think its outrageous. when i worked at the white house, i worked there for three years. we made statements on all kinds of things, much lesser things that we had in the voice of the president. he needs to begin to push back on this, because it looks like a ver...

It was interesting that at the beginning of his news conference in turkey today, president obama said very pointedly that the u.s. was going to give more intelligence to france, more quickly. i thought that signalled a very small shift in the military relationship between the united states and france, which, as we all know, has been catchy at times so i think the president along was calling on all nato countries to do more to have abide by the idea of collective defense, and i think that was aim...

To talk about. ten years ago a lot of democrats were worried that if they talked about economic inequality it would talk too liberal. now this issue is important to enough americans that they are trying to deal with it themselves. what you said in the setup piece is right about them saying one thing and not necessarily doing it when they vote on legislation or act as governors. i think one of the tests is going to be this budget they are pushing through congress which pushes not against inequali...

In part they attribute it to the very serious offensive that the pakistanis have undertaken that you referred to in your setup piece. at the urging of the united states to really clamp down hard of north uristan with drones. what this cia internal memo warned about, and seems to now be coming to fruition, is that while we comfort ourselves in these so-called assassinations of top taliban operatives, what actually happens when you take out these operatives is that it radicalizes the remaining lea...

That, the piece, the setup piece and talked about the five minutes. you can forget that quickly. you -- >> and were going to have woman coming up right after this panel who actually had done this and her child died. and one of the things that a reporter who were also going have from the "washington post," you actually create false memories sometimes if youre really stressed, and you think you dropped off your child or you think you have done something, but in fact you havent and the child is sti...

Documents related to the committee report and the cia said we cant give them to you. the committee is the custodian of them. so if in fact the committee was the proper custodian of the documents, and i think thats the reasonable interpretation of what we know right now, then there are a lot of constitutional and criminal issues. for example, there is a statute 1505 that says any interference with an investigation is a serious criminal offense. going into committee documents, searching through th...

The fact ted cruz refused to endorse in the senate primary. he said, im not supporting any from my party or their opponents. i imagine relationships with him and john cornyn are not super awesome right now. >> i can tell you a lot of cornyn supporters in texas cannot figure out what ted cruz is up to. it wouldnt have killed ted cruz, they say, to say a few nice words about john cornyn, to endorse him, senatorial courtesy, tradition and all that. he didnt do it. it looks like cornyn, as you said ...

Courtesy, tradition and all that. he didnt do it. it looks like cornyn, as you said in the setup piece, is going to win without a runoff, will return steve stockman to the private sector and the period of time we witnessed in the last couple months will go down in the history books. it will be fondly remembered but not very relevant to texas right now. >> on the democratic side, kesha rogers. polling in these kinds of situations i think can be a little -- >> very fluid. >> very fluid and a littl...
