even smarter. online scheduling. available now at meineke.com. heated debate and privacy rights have gotten hotter. chris christie is blasting rand paul for challenging the nsa program. he said this. this strain of lib ter yanism is going through parties right now and making big headlines. i think it's a dangerous thought. you can name any number of people and paul is one of them. he goes onto say these esoteric bedates, i want them to come to new jersey and sit across from the widows and orphans and have that conversation. they won't because that's a much
10:15 am
tougher conversation to have. senator rand paul fired back. his senior advisor said that if he believes constitutional rights and the privacy of all americans is esoteric he needs a new dictionary or needs to talk to more americans because a great number of them are concerned about overreach in the past years. why did this spill out? why did this happen now? >> reporter: first of all, i think they were asked about it. the fact of the matter is there's a split inside the republican party on any number of issues. one of them as we saw in the house vote about reducing funding for the national security administration. as we saw in that vote republicans don't agree on whether the nsa with its meta data program to look at the information about americans phone calls should be as broad
10:16 am
as it is. it's interesting also because rand paul has made no secret about his desire to run for president in 2016 and neither has chris christie. i think you'll see this play out over any number of issues including government shut down. you will see this divide in the republican party which happens frequently when party is out of power and there's no specific leader. it is the back and forth and to and froing of a party trying to get back in power. that's what you're seeing. >> they seem very far apart. how much of this is political posturing and how much is this is firmly what i believe here? i'm going to take you on. you take me on, i'm going to take you on as well. >> when you consider that governor cristie is from new jers jersey, any number of the victims of 9/11 are from new jersey so it's a personal thing
10:17 am
to him. you can see him taking this on. on the other hand he likes headlines. rand paul likes headlines. they understand how to generate them. i don't question at all the two of them feel precisely as they are saying right now. >> candy, politics, fireworks as always. we'll be watching your show this weekend. >> appreciate it. >> watch "state of the union "this weekend. good to see you. new dramatic details in the hard landing of southwest flight. how this plane's weight might have been a factor. osing thousas of offices, slashing service and want to layoff over 100,000 workers. the postal service is recording financial losses, but not for reasons you might think. the problem? a burden no other agency or company bears. a 2006 law that drains $5 billion a year from post office revenue while the postal service
