>> we just got hit by a car. >> are you okay? >> yeah, everybody is fine. >> talk about breaking news. howard dean did call back an't 20 minutes later and actually finished up the interview. talk about commitment. four major wildfires still burning out of control in arizona. and officials are bleeding with residents, get out of your homes, get out of them now, don't stop to pick things up, move it. the fires scorched 17,000 acres. and firefighters say one of the fires could still hit crown king, an historic mining town. the larchest fire has tripled in size. a family in mississippi calling for the public's help to find a fake police officer who killed their loved one in that state. tom shend ler was one of two people found dead on a state highway last weekend. investigators say they're not sure if his death is linked to a body found a few days later. but they do believe they were murdered by someone faking as a police officer asking them to pull over. >> we know the details are not going to be pretty. this is a violent end to a kind man's life. >> it's hard to imagine your phatner that situation. >> 234 other news, the government is saying sketchers lied when it said its shape up shoes would tone your butt and legs and help you to lose weight. after months of investigating, sketchers has agreed to settle the charges and pay $40 million towards refunds. you might remember them particularly because kim kardashian helped to push shape ups at a commercial during the 2011 intel. since then, sketchers had $1 billion in sales, too. a south korean man says his dash cam video that you're seeing now is proof positive that his parents' hyundai sonata went ber zerk and sped up in traffic. >> holy moly. that car accelerated up to 80 miles an hour just before it did that crash. lucky to report both parents did survive. but his dad diz fracture his ribs and his i mother needed an operation to stop internal bleeding. the government is investigating cases of uncontrolled vehicle acceleration. hyundai says the vehicle is being inspected adds well. back here in the good old u.s. of a, the fbi is now on the case of jpmorgan chase. last week, the bank announced a loss of $2 billion from investing in credit default swaps. today, fbi director robert mueller confirmed that the bureau has started a preliminary investigation but he wouldn't specify what the charges could be. a senator was encouraging the investigati investigation. >> i think that the american public has lost nait in many other enforcement agencies, partly because of the delay and lack of results and i think that the fbi's involvement is a very constructive and important presence in this area. >> you might also remember just this week, the securities and exchange commission saying it's going to investigate jpmorgan chase. it will be a busy time for the bank. let's turn our attention now to the other financial crisis far, far away in greece. when you think of greece, what do you think? the debt? it's about $540 billion in our dplar dollars. or do you think of the history? maybe you think of the beautiful greek islands. i don't know like mikanos. there are those who say all those things i just mentioned are assets. and they are valuable assets worth a great deal of money to, i don't know, a cash strapped country. there are suggestions that greece should hold a fire sale, or at least consider renting them. let's bring in cnn's richard quest from london. i am not the only person who thought those islands were very valuable. angela merkel has even made the suggestion to the greeks. is it real? is it a possibility? >> well, when you put it like that, no! that's the short answer. the greeks are doing some fairly imaginative things to try to balance the books. for instance, the acrop lis has been rented out. you can rent private policeman.man. and yes, no doubt, some of the greek islands will be leased. those that aren't already, of course, in private property. but greece is already having a fire sale. it is saying vast tranches of the economy, difficult maybe to understand in the u.s. where so much is already in the private sector, but whether it's gas companies, telephone companies, airlines, or electricity companies, whether it's transportation and bus companies. all of these are going to be sold off. the problem is no one wants to buy them. because at the moment, they are so competitive and they are losing so much money and they have such high employee numbers that they are mill stoners arounds in tors next. rather than engines of profit. >> well, that makes the argument of selling those lovely gems, you know, in the mediterranean perhaps even more valuable. there are 6,000 greek islands. only 227 of them are inhabited. here's our big map of greece. they are spectacular. >> and while you're about it, hang on, ashleigh, while you're about it, don't forget the u.s. budget deficit. and the 11 or $12 trillion total deficit or the $13 trillion. i believe hawaii is a rather nice place in the pacific. and there's that funny place north. it's not attached to the united states. you know, continental. >> you take on sarah palin over selling alaska, my friend. i'm not going anywhere near that. >> it's got oil. >> i hear you, quest. it is hard not to hear you. but let me tell you, a coup of years ago when this idea was floated, the then prime minister of greece had this to say. and it sounded a lot like you, but for the english act sent. and it was this -- there are more imaginative and effective ways to dealing with the deficit than selling off greek islands. we cherish these islands. and selling them would be out of the question. it would not help. but honestly, i do fleed to ask you with your business acumen, why would it not help? >> because this is not just a solvency issue. this isn't just about debt. it's not just about greece's inability to pay its current bills. it's about reform and competitiveness of the greek economy. it's about greece trying to compete with fellow euro zone and european companies that are better in terms of production. they produce more for lower costs and are more profitable. now if you sell off the greek islands, you're literally selling the family's silver. you could sell them off to buy time, but if you don't actually make the structural changes that are being ghanded and taking place, job changes, employment laws, investment laws, taxation, all the things, you're wasting your time and doing the proverbial down the drain. >> well, mr. quest, thank you for your insight, your perspective. next time you are in america, i would like top go for a cup of coffee with you. >> the bill is on you. >> it us a is. it is a moment where we are still waiting on president obama who is about to award a medal of honor 42 years past due. find out the story behind this. it is great. we're america's natural gas and here's what we did today: supported nearly 3 million steady jobs across our country... ... scientists, technicians, engineers, machinists... ... adding nearly 400 billion dollars to our economy... we're at work providing power to almost a quarter of our homes and businesses... ... and giving us cleaner rides to work and school... and tomorrow, we could do even more. cleaner, domestic, abundant and creating jobs now. we're america's natural gas. the smarter power, today. learn more at anga.us.

>> you'll probably not be surprised that politics are at play. not only as the violence against women's act have to do with the provisions of the differing bills but it also has to do with a larger battle over the female vote. that said, the senate passed with bipartisan support a reauthorization of this bill last month. in it, it expands protections for groups like certain native americans, illegal immigrants that are victims of domestic violence, as well as members of the lgbt community. the republicans oppose those measures. the house republican version does not include those measures. why do you ask? well, house republicans argue that you do not need to specify groups in the language of this bill because they're already covered. >> i need to interrupt you and i'm only doing it for a very good reason. the president has taken to the mike. there's a reason he's at the mike right now. he is about to give the medal of honor, it is the highest accolade you can give to a soldier. he's going to give it to the widow of army specialist leslie sabo jr. it's a big deal because this comes decades after that army specialist was killed in action. let's listen. >> military families and veterans who bear that sacrifice for a lifetime. their spouses, like rose dr mary. who all these years since vietnam still displays in her home her husband's medals and decorations. they are siblings, like leslie's big brother george who carries the childhood memories of his little brother tagging along at his side. and there are veterans who still speak of their brother les with respect and love. rose, george, bravo company, more than 100 family and friends, michelle and i are honored to welcome you to the white house. the medal of honor is the highest military declaration that america can bestow. it reflects the gratitude of the entire nation. we're joined by members of congress and leaders from across our armed forces including secretary of defense leon panetta, vice chairman of the joint chiefs, secretary john mchugh and chief of staff genere odierno and from the marine corps, the commandant general jim amos. we're honored to be joined by vietnam veterans incruding recipients of the medal of honor. members of the 101st air born division, the legendary screaming eagles. this gathering of soldiers, past and present could not be more timely. as a nation, we've ended the war in iraq. we are moving towards an end to the war in afghanistan. for a decade of war, our troops are coming home. and this month, we'll begin to mark the 50th anniversary of the vietnam war. a time when, to our shame, our veterans did not always receive the respect and the thanks they deserved. a mistake that must never be repeated. that's where i want to begin. it was 1999 around memorial day and a vietnam vet from the 101st was at the national archives doing research for an article. and there among the stacks, an archivist brought him a box. he took off the lid and inside he found a file marked leslie h.sabo jr. and there it was, a proposed citation for the medal of honor. and so this vietnam veteran set out to find answers. who was leslie sabo? what did he do? and why did he never receive that medal? today, four decades after leslie's sacrifice, we can set the record straight. i just spent some time with the george and the sabo family. last week marked 42 years since les gave his life. this soldier, this family has a uniquely american story. les was actually born in europe after world war ii to a family of hungarian refugees. and as the iron curtain deaccepteded they boarded a boat for america and arrived at ellis island, past the statue of liberty. they settled in the steel down of elwood city, pennsylvania. less' father worked hard, pulled his family into the middle class. and when les was a teenager, the family went to the county courthouse together, raised their hands and became proud american citizens. they say that les was one of the nicest guys you would ever want to meet. he lued a good joke, eh loved to bowl. he could have given me some tips. they say he was pretty good looking, too. that's what i hear. he would do anything for anybody. and when george went to college, les looked after their mom. when george went tonight school, les helped care for his three young sons. when les fell in love with rose, who couldn't wait to start a life together, he slipped the ring on her fenger right there in the car while stopped at a red light. and as he headed out for vietnam, he stopped at a shop and ordered flowers for his mom for mother's day and rose for her birthday. for les and bravo company, those early months of 1970 were a near constant battle, pushing through jungles and rice patties in their heavy packs, enduring incredible heat and humidity. the monsoon rains that never seemed to stop. an enemy that could come out of nowhere then vanish just as fast. for his bravery in battle, les e
