glowing welcome across as are considered on people about obama's africa the u.s. president's trip to this continent is criticized by some as too little too late indeed washington continues to be seen by many operations as a source for outside democracy promotion and the creeping militarisation of the continent. obama's calling card has always been hope but is he bringing much hope to africa. to cross-talk obama's trip to africa i'm joined by richard downie in washington he is the deputy director and fellow of the africa program at the center for strategic and international studies also in washington we have clarence hussein he is a professor of international relations at the american university and in johannesburg we crossed the border he's an advocate and member of the muslim lawyers association in south africa gentlemen crossed up rules in fact that means you can jump in anytime you want and i very much encourage it for us if we go to you first in south africa in johannesburg is obama bringing much hope to africa i do not think that president obama will bring an

i mean obama's drawn policy policy is coming to africa as we speak. and i wasn't because. i was going to say that because obama is running their own policy in somalia and years blix sites in somalia and they are so they're thinking people who are little are surrounding us terrorist. in so there are many people in the u.s. terror list what kind of future this man bring to the world we don't want to use money i want a world where the model very use that are going to be able to we be able to have a world which is peaceful we are going to be able to have a world where we came here with children being safe now to morrow obama can come with his checkbook but if he doesn't like one of my friends what you can do is send it don't kill him and kill everybody around him ok. if you want to jump in in washington please do yeah yeah. i think we need to be careful as we talk about africa as. you say you know america does this in africa and china does that in africa well you know i think we should bear in mind that africans have their own agency in the process very g

one mean president obama. up to. we have legislation called the implementation of their own statute which basically mystic aids. legislation and allows a so there flick in court to try obama for war crimes or to be for him to the international criminal court and the muslim lawyers association have in this respect submitted to the prosecuting authorities in the police what is known as the obama docket and then docket essentially is for ject of we have presented evidence that obama is guilty of walk crimes against humanity and genocide we have done so first because we believe it is our religious duty to speak out against a tyrant like obama to hold him accountable for his claims second we have done so in order to bring justice to the victims of years of indecision spore to see the victims of torture and detention policies such as those in. and the victims of these incineration policy when i mean when i say incineration policy i talk of the sport and using drones because that's what it does own does it incinerates a hum

obama won by five million votes. i don't know if you remember but it was pretty suspenseful toward the end and bill clinton, at the scene in the book for bill clinton calls of mitt romney after the election and says i thought you were going to win until hurricane sandy. clinton as been known to blow some smoke of people's you know what. but there was some real concern and mitt romney himself didn't even prepare a concession speech. paul ryan was so sure they were going to win fun the night before the election he said to two aids i spoke to that his only real concern was would he have to resign his house seat right away after he became vice president elect. there was a legal reading on what the constitutional interpretation was. was a little ambiguous and when they told him the next evening he lost the was completely stunned. even the president at the hotel at 12 minutes after a 11:00, my network nbc news called the race for obama and valerie jarrett about who my apple chapter in the book, said he won, the president s

obama want to leave and in africa in your opinion he still got four more years. three yes he's he's still going to few more years to go to carve out a legacy but you know maybe maybe we shouldn't think of it as you know africa is a place where presidents go and carve out legacies i think hopefully we're beyond that that stage in a more mature era of grown up relationships between the united states and africa i think what you'll be wanting to see what president obama will want to gain from this trip is to really sort of change the narrative on africa as much here in the united states as in africa itself and that message that he wants to put through the u.s. businesses here in the united states he's been very leery of investing in africa they've seen they tend to do well on the risks rather than the older students he's i think he's trying to challenge that narrative and if at the end of this trip it can spark a little bit more interest from u.s. business and that might be turn out to be a very important economic legacy for mr clarence what do you think about legacy

all about obama's africa the u.s. president's trip to this continent is criticized by some as too little too late indeed washington continues to be seen by many how perkins as a source for outside democracy promotion and the creeping militarisation of the continent obama is calling card has always been hope but is he bringing much hope to africa. cross-talk obama's trip to africa i'm joined by richard downie in washington he is the deputy director and fellow of the africa program at the center for strategic and international studies also in washington we have clarence hussein he is a professor of international relations at the american university and in johannesburg we cross to rose bowl he is an advocate and member of the muslim lawyers association in south africa gentlemen crossed the fact that means you can jump in anytime you want and i very much encourage it for us if we go to you first in south africa in johannesburg is obama bringing much hope to africa i do not see that the president obama will bring any hope

obama's beating me left and right.'m a guy on the radio, but why are they putting me in this arena? why is a guy on the radio being measured against people who have their hands on a budget of $3 trillion urgs and the reason is, i happen to be an articulate spokesman of the opposing point of view. and whenever an articulate spokesman of the owes posing point of view, which is government first, last and always, that spokesman's got to be discredited, taken down, it's a massive fight, the forces that believe government should be the center of everybody's universe are massive and big. the democratic party wants government to use it as a weapon against their enemies. the idea they want to use it to help people. look at the people they've been helping for 50 years, 30 years, they're in no better shape than when the democrats first took them under their wing. under reagan and conservative governors and so forth. people prosper economically. they overcome odds, they're turned loose. and they're not shackled by government laws,

first wreck president obama authorized? missiles are devastating weapon. buster bombs, which are banned internationally -- the u.s. is the only nation that continues to use them. landmines.ike flying that is why the tribal leaders were saying they could not tell him was the flesh of animals or humans. i've seen in yugoslavia and elsewhere the aftermath of these bombs. the white house should have to explain why that strike was in the interest of national security. >> you talk about the white house responds that shaye should've had to serve out his full term. talk about president obama's phone call to the dictator saleh . >> what happened, shaye is convicted in this kangaroo court officialry 2011, the yemen news agency did a report ofing saleh, the dictator yemen, was going to pardon abdulelah haider shaye. you have to understand come at the time there were posters put up throughout the yemeni capital demanding his release. there was massive pressure on the dictatorship to release him. everyone knew it was a sham and everyone

>>> the group charged with enforcing obama care objects to being forced into obama care. this is "special report." good evening, i'm bret baier. we are repeatedly told by the administration that the affordable care act is now the law of the land, and it is, but groups that traditionally support the president and his policies are now lining up to try to get out of obama care. tonight another bump in what has been a rocky road for implementation of the law. and this one involves the irs, responsible for enforcing that law. chief white house correspondent ed henry has our lead story tonight. >> reporter: to hear president obama's top advisers tell it, everything is going just fine, thank you very much, with signing new people up for his controversial health care law. >> for millions of americans they will have access to affordable care that they don't have at their place of work or that they haven't been able to afford in the past. >> reporter: what secretary kathleen sebelius didn't mention, some of his allies in organized labor don't seem to share excitement, with national

but unless president obama is defunded -- you say we're going to defund obama care? >> the american people are overwhelmingly in support of it. congress never read the law before it was passed. the supreme court amended it, not once but twice, and now president obama has done the same thing. amending it twice without any constitutional authority to do that. he exempted out his big corporate cronies. meanwhile, he told hardworking individual americans, they have to comply with the laws exacting commands or else they'll be find under federal law. the point is, the president has now told us, he's not going to follow this law. if he's not going to follow it, the american people shouldn't be required to fund it. a few of us in congress are saying, look, we're not going to fund obama care. you can criticize us all you want, but we're not going to pass a continuing resolution or other appropriations measure that includes funding for ongoing further enforcement and implementation of obama care. >> congress has the authority and the purse. so you would -- you are encouraging

i mean, he sold obama better than obama sold obama.clinton is a master politician and a master political consultant. if i was going to be running for president, i'd want him to be on my side, giving consultation and advice. he's certainly someone who does not believe in permanent antipathy. we saw him go hot and cold all through the primary. one thing that surprised me, it took obama so long to go and ask bill clinton to speak at the democratic convention, because his speech was key. >> now maria, when you look at the fact that they've had this great working relationship, the clintons went all in, the other thing that could unite them is that both the president and mrs. clinton has been the object of some of the most ven newscast mou -- venomous attacks from the right that any two people have had to endure. watch this. >> how can she get a concussion when she has been ducking everything. that's what i don't understand. >> we're calling this is the immaculate concussion. >> when you don't want to go to a meeting or a conference or an ev

that means we don't do things like obama care, and when we have the tool to undo obama care, in this case, the tool is not funding obama care, then it's very important for conservati conservatives to stand up. if you're going to go down, at least go down swinging. don't capitulate, give in to obama and the media, thinking they're going to come around and like you after all for being on their side on this issue. they're not, they go home at the end of the day, and their home is more big government that will burden us. >> we appreciate it. >> the governor was supposed to join us on satellite, but it then went down. so much for great technology. but it happens once in a while. >>> senator ted cruz and karl rove. we need your help, you get to select a video of the day. you get an incredible sneak peek of option number one. if you want to see more of the cell phone footage from inside the tornado, you can cast your vote now. on twitter, it's @seanhannity. any last requests mr. baldwin? do you mind grabbing my phone and opening the capital one purchase eraser? i need to redeem some venture

she was angling for the endorsement early on from barack obama. obama kind of backed off. they are trying to set this thing up at the point. lou: i was shocked to see jack lew reviews to answer the question of chris wallace about the investigation of the irs as to whether or not they had talked with chief counsel and irs, one of two that is a confirmation job. are you shocked that he would not? i mean, is it vexing national media to be enough for today because the treasury secretary refused to answer a direct question. the public has been affronted, have they not? be my guest, but clearly he is playing a political game that he doesn't want to get ahead of any investigation. lou: he is a careful man meant yes, he is very but i think the fact that he is circumspect as evidence that he wants to avoid any legal trouble himself. he was the chief of staff so you never know where his finger might be found in us. so we have to take that into account. he could be a player in this game as well. but i will say that from your expectations of the media, wake up. lou: thank you so much.

the obama presidency?w. if i knew that, i would be in the house whous. >> what would make you happy -- >> i don't have a list. i'm flexible in this stuff. the thing is what i see over and over again is a president i would prefer not to immediately be talking about compromise. because that's what's going to have to happen. i mean, there has to be a compromise. >> what do you want to happen? >> what i want to happen, indeed. we're not getting -- the compromise is starting halfway to the middle, for me. >> and other mixed message he sends is in his appointment. the s.e.c. chair, her name is mary jo white, her first decision this spring, she made it on her own, no congress you could blame, was that foreign banks didn't have to follow the rules of dodd/frank. if you look at kind of the economy at you have the government on one hand and big business on the other and government is supposed to contain as a power the aggressiveness of big business, he's, a, sending the message and, b, creating the reality that's im

obama's campaign. today we're announcing the expansion of offshore oil and gas exploration. meddling take responsibility for solving this crisis and the president and the buck stops with me. obama flies down to florida jumps in the water briefly with his daughter for the photo op and from that point on most of the media has left beaches all along the gulf coast are clean they are safe and they're open for business that's one of the reasons michele saussure and i are here. in reality neither he nor his daughter touched the water of the gulf they swam at st andrews bay a protected area. what happened with safety regulations in the gulf of mexico in the wake of the b.p. disaster rename a couple of agencies change a couple of faces business as usual full steam ahead what does that tell you. the administration that it promised us change made no alteration to be antiquated spill response plan that still cites wall versus the most threatened species in the gulf of mexico and it still lists deceased people as the contacts and policemen emergency. obama might have had a good reason t

we don't want obama care.e're back with our panel, and, john fund, were you going to say something before? i think this irs thing is unbelievable. >> it's potentially a fire storm. what got congress in trouble in the 90s, both parties, they were doing things separate from the rest of the country. they had their own house bank, their own who was office, their own house rules. they weren't bound by the sex and other discrimination laws that we have and the public revolted and threw out dozens and dozens of them, including some from both parties. this will be the same thing. the same irs that doesn't answer the customer service line, the same irs that politicized the -- this is hypocrisy. the american people hate hypocrisy and especially hate it in the irs. >> this union, jessica, is going to lose its subsidy. they're in the federal employees health basket, which is a very good plan. you get a lot of real choice. but they get heavily subsidized. inside this plan that subsidy is gone. that's the whole issue here.

lou: president obama himself sounds like a man looking for a new fight over obama character, republican the not happy about the president looking to delay the roll out of super provisions of obamacare while allowing the rest of the law to go into effect, president obama told "new york times" he quote, not concerned about their opinions, very few of them by the way are attorneys issue much less constitutional lawyers, in the talk talk we'll examine the president's implied lofty states for you himself and his dismissal of his fellow attorneys on capitol hill, we'll show you why the president should be more than a little concerned about his inaccuracies project, and after numerous foreign policy failures, the obama administration is now focused on beginning peace talks between israel and the palestinians. former u.s. ambassador to the united nations, john bolton, former pentagon official kt mcfarland among our guest, and eric holder ignoring a supreme court ruling on the voter rights act. looking to -- the state of texas to get permission for from federal government before they change any

is this what the obama care does? everybody's in? >> obama care takes -- it gets about 70% or 80% of the people who are not covered today will be covered. that's not everybody. i wish we had -- i would like single payer system where everybody in the country was covered, everybody paid taxes, and when you were sick you went down. that's what every industrialized country in the world has done except the united states. we decided we would try this individual mandate business. and we'll see how it works. i think we'll ultimately come to a single payer system. but that's myelief about the ultimate course of this. because i don't think when you stop -- when you start fighting erybody being in, you are simply saying, you want some people to get it for free. and that's not fair. you call this the fairness act. well, it is not fair for people to get it free if they have the ability to pay. and if you have the ability to pay, you should be paying. and that's -- i think that's the only way it's going to work. >> mr. young, he's arguing that rep

docket and the docket essentially is for ject of we have presented evidence that obama is guilty of walker claims against humanity and genocide we have done so first because we believe it is our religious duty to speak out against a tyrant like obama to hold him accountable for his claims second we have done so in order to bring justice to the victims of years of envisions policy the victims of torture and detention policies such as those in. and the victims of these incineration policy when i mean when they say incineration policy i talk of the spoilers you're using drones because that's what it don't does it incinerates a human being and we want. to hold leaders such as obama accountable we want to test the rule of law we want the rule of law to apply equally to a king and to a pauper and finally we want obama to be brought before a court of law to answer questions we want him to answer why did he incinerate a sixteen year old child a us citizen in yemen by using drones claimed did ok what i learned is that you're characterizing his entire foreign policy american foreign policy he

what we saw at the white house today was something many people have been waiting for, president obama speaking out clearly forcefully and emotionally about the trayvon martin case. it was the president addressing race in a way that only he, uniquely among american presidents, could giving his first on-camera comments about a story that has sparked a national dialogue the last week. he said the country needed to do some soul searching and he spoke about the case in starkly personal terms. >> you know, when trayvon martin was first shot, i said that this could have been my son. another way of saying that is, trayvon martin could have been me 35 years ago. and when you think about why in the african-american community at least there's a lot of pain around what happened here, i think it's important to recognize that the african-american community is looking at this issue through a set of experiences. and a history. that doesn't go away. >> nbc news reports that the president decided yesterday afternoon to address this weighty topic after talking with friends and family. he called together

and certainly president obama is not confronting it, but we need to confront and it force president obama's hand. the reason he discussed trayvon martin is because of the grassroots insurgency from activists in this room and all around the country who demand that the commander-in-chief speak out. john kennedy, june 11, 1963, talked about racism as a moral crisis that was infecting and distorting our democracy. that kennedy, and kennedy did that because of mlk, because of grassroots insurgency that forced the president reside hand. but the team medgar ever s dies, kennedy says civil rights is everything and it still is everything right now until we solve the problem of racial ion equality in the united states, this democracy does not have a progressive future. applause. >> so, what is the nature of this application i will simply join with what my co-panelist said and read to you a few lines from a letter written in march of 1913. exactly 100 years ago. it's called, an open letter to woodrow wilson. and its author is w.e.b. due boys. you face no insolvable probable dem -- talk about the negro

there are no such things as obama-care cards. but freedomworks isn't letting a little thing like not existing get in its way as their vice president of public policy dean clancy explained. >> freedom works is going to design the obama-care card ourselves. we are going to put that online and share it with people in the hopes that they will burn it, tear it up, mark on it. >> stephen: yes. burn it. tear it. mark it. but first print it, cut it and laminate it. freedomworks is opening up a whole new world of fighting sim symbols of injustice that don't exist. they should refnt a bus, order themselves to sit at the back of the bus and then refuse to sit at the back of their own bus. power. the point is burning things is always an attention getter. and freedomworks special events manager emilia huneke-berquist explained why burning this card was so natural. >> back in the day, just the selective service act decided that each and every male in the u.s. is going to need to carry a draft card. and as the vietnam war got are really heated

take a listen. >> you're probably not going to get president obama to sign a bill that repeals obama care. truly, our last option is to stop paying for this thing. >> i wanted to fund this bill. but i also want to do it in a way that kills it. and there is not a legislative method that we have that is capable of defunding it short of 67 votes. >> we've seen a certain faction of republicans in congress hurt a fragile recovery by saying they wouldn't pay the very bills that congress racked up in the first place, threatening to shut down the people's government if they can't get rid of obama care, wasting the country's time by taking something like 40 meaningless votes to repeat obama care is not a jobs plan. >> the battle lines are being drawn. nbc's kelly o'donnell is live on capitol hill for us. thanks for joining us, kelly. so the president mapped out his new grand bargain, what he's calling a new grand bargain yesterday. republicans are saying no deal. so what are their main complaints and how does the president move this forward? >> well, the glimmer of hope was that the president

original vision for obama care, both on the campaign trail and upon re-election, is obama care about these votes? >> well, as you know, jaime, the president made a lot of promises to try to get the votes in 2010. this bill barely passed and the president said that you can keep your own doctor. he told union members they could keep their own plan. now those two things are very much in doubt. unions, even some unions are calling for at least a partial repeal of some of this law. democrats are clearly divided on those two votes. we talked to some democrats. a lot of democrats at no tididn to talk about why they voted with republicans. democrats on the hill are nervous about the imlemtation of obama care. one of the bills that was voted on, president obama has delayed the employer mandate. the bill that house republicans voted on delayed the employer mandate. the white house just said that was unnecessary. clearly democrats on capitol hill didn't agree with the president. they defected on that vote. >> it seems significant that the unions are calling for at least a partial repeal of obam

president obama who's pulled on the. listen to the people saying that democracy is not just through a budget books this comes amid growing fees from the americans the u.s. embassy has closed off to that has been a lot over many american sentiment expressed in protests here and also in the presidential palace i've certainly seen a lot of fun is targeting the u.s. ambassador to egypt and passive in practice in story saying the mission but it is one of being a u.s. agenda what's happening right now is you see really divided egypt with tensions rising and expected violence on the horizon that was artie's bell true in cairo. well forget the one hundred thirty foot christ the redeemer statue in rio de janeiro brazil atheists agnostics and other nonbelievers across the country now have a monument of their own to adore or rather it's a celebration of secular was secularism according to the american atheist group what's just wrapped up a year long court battle this past week the lawsuit demands for a local christian group to remo

whoever obama names to this position, they're probably going to be in it long after obama is out of officet distracted by the speeches and the policy papers. that stuff is all important. i like me a policy paper. but that right now, that is economic politics as much as anything else. but this pick, federal reserve chairman, that's going to be the most important economic policy decision obama makes in his second term. nothing else will even come close. helicopthierhis hibuzzing, andk engine humming. sfx: birds chirping sfx: birds chirping we're so choosy about the cuts of beef that meet our higher kosher standards that only a slow-motion bite can capture all that kosher delight. and when your hot dog's kosher, that's a hot dog you can trust. hebrew national. if you have high cholesterol, here's some information that may be worth looking into. in a clinical trial versus lipitor, crestor got more high-risk patients' bad cholesterol to a goal of under 100. getting to goal is important, especially if you have high cholesterol plus any of these risk factors because you could be at increased risk

whoever obama names to this position, they're probably going to be in it long after obama is out of officeet distracted by the speeches and the policy papers. that stuff is all important. i like me a policy paper. but that right now, that is economic politics as much as anything else. but this pick, federal reserve chairman, that's going to be the most important economic policy decision obama makes in his second term. nothing else will even come close.

president obama's job performance down a little bit.it was, a little better from june 22nd to 24th. there you see approved 46%. this group 47. job performance among independents now has taken a big dip, down to 25% in the latest fox news polls. with that, bring in the panel, steve hayes from the weekly standard. ab stoddard, and charles krauthammer. charles, the speech. >> it was completely empty, he doesn't have anything to say, anything new to offer. it was the usual stuff. could have been a campaign speech and was a campaign speech. somebody ought to tell the president that the 2012 election is officially over and he won and there isn't going to be another one for him. the main complaint i would have, if he wanted to deliver a completely empty speech and you do it in washington, you save the co 2 emissions you get on air force one from delivering it in illinois. that's the main critique i would offer. from a global warming perspective. >> well, the president, it is true, came out with nothing new. even if these are policies he believ

you remember in the home stretch before president obama passed obama care president obama swore up and down that he would fight for health care. he said he would eliminate every instance of health care fraud in the government. the worst part is, he doesn't have the authority to do this. >> i want to get to that in a minute. i want to ask one quick follow-up. regarding the lack of income documentation for ineligibility, this is so much like the housing crisis of years ago it's unbelievable because then liar loans were handed out with no income and no documentation. why is this any different, michael cannon? this is the health care version of the housing bubble. >> it's not any different and the obama administration knows that this law is still vulnerable so their defense strategy is that if we just throw bags of cash at people, then we'll be able to get by more obama care voters, and there's something to that. if you make people dependent on government, people will vote for bigger government and higher taxes. that appears to be their strategy here. >> you know, ron poll lack, i know you

what can you tell us about obama's plans for this? >> well, obama hasn't released a lot of details. all i can do is guess, which is what everyone else is doing. but what we have to understand is the reason the companies are keeping the money overseas in the first place is because we have a bad policy called worldwide taxation, where we try to double tax this income that is earned and already taxed by foreign governments overseas. now, companies can defer this double tax if they plow the money back into their overseas operations. obama is trying to say bring the money back home, we'll tax it at a lower rate. but what's the rate? your guess is as good as mine. >> all right. so i just want to ask this just to close the loop on this. that means if the cash stays overseas there's going to be some kind of penalty tax or minimal penalty tax. that is different than the territorial reform where double taxation would not occur. this is different from what, let's say, the business round table and other groups wanted. >> well, here's the really bad news i think about what obama's proposing. the

on june sixteenth two thousand and ten obama called the meeting at the white house with b.p.'s c.e.o. . tony hayward its managing director bob dudley and its chairman of the board carl hendricks bamberg the u.s. government took no action against b.p. or its executives instead it agreed that b.p. would simply create the claims fine for victims of the oil spill the people of the goals have my commitment that b.p. will meet its obligations to them. as publicly pledged to make good on the claims that opposed to the people in the gulf. large oil companies are greedy companies or don't. think lazy the weak have to do the. past. four days after his meeting with president obama tony hayward was enjoying the yacht race in england. instead of being fired in the wake of the gulf oil spill hayward was sent to run b.p.'s operations in russia and it was back to business as usual you can throw out tony hayward just another one out of their frankenstein machine with a different hairdo and a different name they all operate they say you got to get the oil out the cheapest way is the filthiest m

obama care.e anyhow and believed that obama care trampled our constitutional rights. we anyhow at that time, the train wreck that obama care would be with regard to our health care system and how completely unworkable it would be to implement it to law. it locks like president obama is realizing what we have known all along. obama care is unworkable and they will not be able to implement it and harmful to employees and workers in this country. look at what the national labor unions said this week. it will be a disaster, a nightmare for the average every day worker harming the health care system and harming their ability to have a 40 hour work week. >> we just have been talking about detroit earlier. texas had the opposite experience of detroit. you have business beaming and unemployment rate beats that of the national ang. you have sewn the plight of detroit, largest city to go bankrupt. maybe you ought to offer them advice. what would it be with governor greg abbot say to the people of detroit.

whoever obama names to this position, they're probably going to be in it long after obama is out of officeso don't get distracted by the speeches and the policy papers. that stuff is all important. i like me a policy paper. but that right now, that is economic politics as much as anything else. but this pick, federal reserve chairman, that's going to be the most important economic policy decision obama makes in his second term. nothing else will even come close. >>> you want a good bird dog? if your moisturizer leaves an oily finish behind imagine what it's doing to your pores.

so this is the context in which barack obama has been operating. race is drizzled all over everything he says and does. >> was it acknowledgement of sorts on his part he doesn't recognize his own ability to be able to lead that dialogue? >> right. >> he can only bring us so far. >> he can only talk about his experiences. unfortunately, there is a part of this country on the right which is so closed to anything that comes out of the mouth of barack obama, anything he touches. he can't talk about an issue or else it becomes toxic. there are people who are so hateful toward him that he really couldn't join hands and have everyone make this dialogue about race. >> we have a good example of that a little bit later in the program. president obama said that it was time for americans to look inward and do some soul searching. >> and then finally, i think it's going to be important for all of us to do some soul searching. you know, there have been talk about should we convene a conversation on race. i haven't seen that be particularly productive when politi

obama care.yhow and believed that obama care trampled our constitutional rights. we anyhow at that time, the train wreck that obama care would be with regard to our health care system and how completely unworkable it would be to implement it to law. it locks like president obama is realizing what we have known all along. obama care is unworkable and they will not be able to implement it and harmful to employees and workers in this country. look at what the national labor unions said this week. it will be a disaster, a nightmare for the average every day worker harming the health care system and harming their ability to have a 40 hour work week. >> we just have been talking about detroit earlier. texas had the opposite experience of detroit. you have business beaming and unemployment rate beats that of the national ang. you have sewn the plight of detroit, largest city to go bankrupt. maybe you ought to offer them advice. what would it be with governor greg abbot say to the people of detroit. >> t

we want to defund obama care. we want to defund a disastrous program that is going to cause them to lose insurance and really hurt precisely the people you want to hurt, the working class people that are working hourly jobs at mcdonald's or working in the service industry, we are afraid they are going to be part-time workers as people discover how expensive insurance is going to be. we are standing up for what we believe in and we want to use the leverage for people who voted for us to try to get reform in government. i don't see how anybody could criticize that. >> didn't most republicans run on repealing obama care? isn't this really the only chance you have to do so? what do you say to those republicans who don't -- who are afraid to do it? >> well, that's what i get when i go home. people say, well, aren't you going to at least try? i can't guarantee victory. i can't guarantee that the democrats would accept this. they probably won't. but why don't we push back and say what we want? we were elected to represen

president obama just lane likes playing golf.ible that he is going to say i'm not going to let some crisis in cairo interrupt my golf dame game especially on a long holiday weekend. >> bill: kerry likes his yacht out in nantucket. they like their leisure time. they work hard. they are entitled to it however, however, when you get a president who whose management style is under fire and it is, certainly, i was talking to mort zuckerman the publisher of the new york daily news not a conservative newspaper about the president's management style. and the message he sends not just to the egyptians but to kind of the world is, you know what? ah, it doesn't really matter, it just doesn't matter. >> i think you are absolutely right. i mean, he really does lead from behind. that's why the optics are so bad. i'm not sure that whether he was on the golf course or in the situation room of the white house would have made one bit of difference on the ground. >> bill: it wouldn't have. >> on the ground. but, it doesn't look good and it sends a

obama care.now they are hoping that new lies and lame commercials will do the trick. this week, house republicans tried to pick apart obama care so they could delay health coverage for millions of americans. republicans have now tried or either repealed to dismember obama care 39 times. house speaker john boehner said this morning he plans to go for number 40. >> we should not be judged on how many new laws we create. we aught to be judged on how many laws we repeal. >> yeah. we shouldn't be judged by how many people we let fall by the way side and get sick and die or get sick and good bankrupt trying to stay healthy. we don't care about them. we don't want to be judge had on that. republicans have been promising to repeal or replace obama care for the last three years and they still can't get it done. maybe because people want it. let's get reaction from donna o'donnell and dr. cori abare and wendel potter. >> wendel, is this just an effort to keep people from signing up for obama care november

president obama addressed the issue.here has been commentary about the fact that the stand your ground laws in the quarter were not used as a defense in the case. on the other hand, if we are sending a message as a society to our communities that someone who is armed potentially has the right to use those firearms, even if there is a way for them to exit from a situation, is that really contributing to the kind of peace and security and order we would like to see? and for those who resist the idea that we should think about something like these stand your ground lost, i want you to consider, if trayvon martin was of age and armed, could he have stood his ground on that sidewalk? that hetually think would have been justified in shooting mr. zimmerman, who had followed him in a car because he felt threatened? if the answer to that question is at least ambiguous, then it seems that may well want to examine those laws. >> greater than i certainly agree with him that we should fight stand your ground a loss, but we have to ke
