Affirmativeaction in the state. The reality is as you all know and as many of you see in the work each day, this great country has a great way to go before the founding promise of equal justice and equal opportunity is fully realized. Ashley the new clemency guidelines as well as the campaign treated as a guidelines of some drug offenders providing more blows to fellow democrats who are already facing difficult reelection campaigns in this years midterms. Carl cameron has our report. The justice departments today announced the guidelines for ne nonviolent guidelines downplaying any risk. Clemency initiative should not be understood to minimize the seriousness of the federal criminal law, and design first and foremost with Public Safety in mind. Convicts must be serving a sentence under old law greater than required under current law. Committees of nonviolent crimes without links to organized crimes serve at least 10 years, had no other criminal history, good prison records and no history of violence. Under the inmates of the crowded federal prison system, half for drug offenders in 2010. They passed the bipartisan fair sentencing act reduce the disparity between sentences for crack and powder cocaine. The new act with additional reforms has 11 g. O. P. House cosponsors and four republicans in the senate who support in concept sentencing reforms. Since congress was already reforming criminal drug sentencing with bipartis support, conservatives think the president s grandstanding these of orders to score political points and energize the political left in an electionyear favoring the g. O. P. He is aware midterms are coming up. Eric holder went as far as to say felonshould no longer be barred from voting urging initial democrats to appeal existing laws. From the Campaign Battles with mitt romney, use executive power to unilaterally let immigrants coming to u. S. As kids stay without fear of deportation. Accused of a blatant pander to voters back then. By making a sort of executive orders, immigration front or here on the sentencing front he is sending a signal he is prepared to take effective action unilaterally to accomplish the same thing. Clemency is always controversial and can complicate the reelection year. They have me worried god for bid a convict gets out and convicts another crime which obviously does happen. Ashley to put it in perspective, president bush crafted only 11. Now the Obama Administration poised to grant the fee 2000 the prisoners. During a study talk about this and a lot more, number of the house Judiciary Committee. Thank you so much for being here. Lets pick up on this right away. I know i have read comments from you. Why just drug offenders, why are we picking this one area of crime, should be and stated to others . The purpose is to deal with unfair situations. I asked the attorney general in a hearing we had before the Judiciary Committee if he had any example any attorney general who had ever issued these please based on one particular aspect and he couldnt think of any. It is again an opportunity this administration aggregating the rule of law because you are looking at the fact you mentioned other administrations. Prior to lesser this administration had only granted one of a senate before the election. They are talking about thousands of these individuals. Member conveys or individuals that were tried by a judge, jury, prosecutor, defense attorney. These sentences were handed down. What we dont know, sometimes people plea out for some of these because they could have been prosecuted under much more serious times but now they are letting these individuals. Ashley they have done all the right things, they were charged under the same circumstances on todays guidelines that would not have these long sentences. This is a way to relieve overcrowding of prisons . If the law is not good, you have to change the law. But you cannot say if Congress Change it, we will just unilaterally do it. The other thing is theyre taking dozens of attorneys according to their own comments to get people out of jail but yet they come back and tell the public we dont have enough attorneys to prosecute people who are here illegally. They cannot have it both ways. What people are so frustrated with is the rule of law means so little to this administration. He wants to change the law, change the law. Dont go back and just save thousands of people will be out of a job. Ashley 62 decision saying michigan, the state has the right to decide what to do when it comes to affirmative action. But again, eric holder actually praising the justice who was in this decision to say this is going to be unfair for minorities. What is your view on that . He praises the court when he agrees with their decision, but then when he disagrees he wants to come back. This wasnt a close decision, this was a 62 decision. Basically what the court said was if they wanted to be color blind, if did not want to have race as a criteria, they had the right to do that. I think if you look at that argument, it is tough to argue with the justification when a 62 decision. Ashley she says in those states where they have done away with more band affirmative action number of minorities has dropped considerably. I dont think she had arguments for michigan. That is the case that was before the court. Ashley the president on a trip around asia, years ago supposed to be the pivot to asia. Things didnt work out that way. We talk about a trade with asian partners. It has been impossible to achieve, why . If cover that area for long time. This is if you want to keep your Health Insurance policy, youan keep your Health Insurance policy moment for form policy. The president put everything i were going to do this big shift and he didnt put the resources there. When you look at the trade situation, it has primarily been that democrats hold in this deal up. Our allies are really depending upon it. Ashley thank you so much. Gun rights advocates raising a new law expanding for people with licenses to carry can bring their guns in georgia.

Ashley federal Health Officials said second wave of the flu is hitting some parts of the country. Six days minorities are seeing widespread influence all activity including connecticut, all aware, maine, new jersey, new york and rhode island. So good news. A superbug that has long plagued hospitals and Nursing Homes is now taking up residence in peoples homes. A nice guest is an expert on contagion. Im joined now by member of the fox news medical 18. Dash a team. I want to get rights to this superbug. It has been long said because of the prevalence of antibiotics there are bugs had built up a resistance to them. Is that what were talking about . And how dangerous is it . Absolutely. We have given out too many bright treating the antibiotics this country we use animals, stabilize sterilize them. Millions of colonies later figure out the combination to the bolt and become resilient. We have created this im rsa. It is not resistant to all antibiotics. Ashley it is not once you get it you are in trouble, but obviously harder to treat. It is vigorous, recurs. Symptoms, skin infections. It occurs mainly in hospitals, but it spreads to the gym and into peoples homes. People can have it on their skin and not get infected. Somebody next me has it, my going to get it . He probably will not get it, but once you get it it is hard to get rid of. We have to use antibiotic creams to keep it from lodging. Ashley if it is resistant do we have to come up with another antibiotic to treat it, eventually will it become resistant to that . We have a coup. We had some that do treated, but not enough. The reason, the problem is the Drug Companies dont have the business incentives to make new antibiotics. If youre not going to use it, viagra people use every day of the week. It might be once every three months. Welwe only use antibiotics we e and Drug Companies dont have incentives to create new ones. 23,000 deaths linked to resistant bacteria. It is a huge epidemic. Washing your hands, using the phone, corel, all that helps. If you have im rsa, you can put the clorox in the bath. That will get rid of it. Not over treating with antibiotics, figuring out what somebody has and treating them early. Wanted to talk about overseas, ebola showing up again in guinea, places in africa, 147 World Health Organization reporting the people being killed by this, is this a major outbreak . I wrote a book on fear. Ebola is more about the fear even though it is highly deadly virus. The issues is it does not spread through the air. Whereas some of the others we worry about do, will not get it by breathing on somebody who has it. You have to literally eat food contaminated with it. I dont see is spreading. Right now theyre banning that soup. Ashley before we run out of time, the second wave of the flu moving in, what is the main flu season exceptionally harsh . It is called influenza a be at the late flu season is influenza b. They are not as strong, they are not as powerful unless you happen to have it. We are seeing a very big outburst of it this year. Six states have widespread activity. Seeing a lot of hospitalizations. With the a lot of secondary infections. They get a sore throat and bronchitis and i have to give them antibiotics. Again we over treat the virus with antibiotics. We are not reporting it enough. It is getting people sic secondo the hospital. Ashley thank you. Time now for the online poll results. We asked if you agreed with the Supreme Court affirmative action should be banned. 96 said yes, 4 said no. Vote in tonights poll.

Ashley housing continues to struggle almost like one step forward, two steps back. How important is the housing sector to the Overall Health of the economy . Things are changing, were going to live in tents now. It is a joke. If you look at the facts, we are so under billed on the housing in this country, people are so negative on housing because we got so shellacked in the last crash, people are coming back. Just another pause. They are greedy as obese, that is the only reason. You have to understand it is only because they got caught. There are very happy doing what they were doing. Ashley even though what they were buying, they were making money on it. Because they passed it onto to a third party. Ashley that is true. Expectations not that great come into the First Quarter. Some rough weather. Things were not so great. The bar is so low, anybody can walk over it, right . The idea was supposed be a 4 , now supposed to be up 1 . The real key is not earnings, the real key is the Revenue Growth continues to be very slow because the economy continues to be very slow. The county is growings lowest rate since the great depression. Ashley what will it take . No the nasal trim . It comes in a white powder. Look, the bottom line is everybody is concerned, and the reality is nothing could be better because slow Economic Growth gives the fed are covered to keep rates low, and money is available. So this is the best scenario. Ashley why should be so concerned with what goes on in china . She woul we be concerned about . That is probably the one thing we should really be concerned about because china has provided us with all these cheap goods that we can markup. China buys our pressure. China is at a Foreign Council meeting. China really is a big deal. They better straighten it out. Ashley thank you for being here. Great stuff, entertaining stuff as always.
