as horrific as 9/11 was, we should never forget. that is my two cents more. thank you for joining us. don't forget to dvr the show if you cannot catch us live. have a good night. lou: thank you for being with us. today marks the 12th anniversary of the september 11 terrorist attacks that claimed the lives of nearly 3000 people. our nations capital today faced with two contesting forces seeking to pay respects, thousands of bikers roaring into washington today to commemorate the victims and the families of the worst terrorist attack ever to occur on american soil. they proceeded with their plan despite being denied a permit to the national park service, the same bureaucracy the grant a permit the american muslim political action committee. so the group could use the spotlight of september 11 to

drawttention to what they call "unfair fear of muslims after the september 11 terrorist attack." washington, d.c., tonight apparently unfriendly territory to some mainstream americans who were looking simply to show respect to all we lost 12 years ago today. also here tonight the 26-year-old syrian researcher whose op-ed article was cited by not only cemetery of state john kerry but also senator john mccain and congressional testimony as they supported an attack against assad. she has been fired. elizabeth original raised conflict of interest concerns after her affiliation with a syrian emergency task force was revealed, that is to say the assad opposition. yes it did for the study of war also learned her resume falsely claimed a phd from georgetown university.

for that she was terminated. a third straight day of gains for the dow jones industrials today, 135-point rally for the dow now up 400 points over the past three days. s&p up 5 pointa seventh consecutive session. the nasdaq supported by apple losses down four points on the day to support a six-day winning streak. we will take all of this up in the money line tonight. but we begin with a speech that never should have been delivered. a speech president obama may well regret, confusing and at times incoherent effortto explain to the american people as ever-changing stance on attacks against syria. listen to this. president obama: i hhve resisted calls for mos military action because we cannot resolve someone else's civil war through force. the situation profoundly changed on october 31.

when assad's government gassed to death over 1000 people. if we fail to act, the regime will seek no reason to stop using chemical weapons. i believe it was right in the threat to our security to take this debate to congress. i have therefore asked the leaders of congress to postpone a vote to authorize use of force. lou: minutes upon minutes of the president speaking directly to the american public it was a speech that ultimately raised more questions than it answered. we will lay it all out in moments and we will be talking with some of the leading political minds in the country about what the president accomplished and perhaps what he loss. the president's speech an example of the obama administration's poor management and mixed messages on the issue of syria. medication between the white house and the state department clearly contributed to the confusion as president obama and his

secretary of state found themselves out of sync and out of touch over recent days. fox news chief politil correspondent has our report. >> and john kerry mention syrian president could avert a u.s. attack their languishing chemical weapons, john kerry was dismissive. >> it can't be done obvious it. >> preside obama embraced the idea say he had discussed it months earlier with vladimir putin raising questions about whether the u.s. sctor estate knew about it or was out of the loop. spiel he seems be constantly caught by surprise and not the one who is the go-to guy when there is a tough decision that needs to be made. >> there was a disconnect on the size of the attack. john kerry suggested would be swift and decisive. the ministration started downplaying the scope and john kerry got in line.

speaker that is if that's what we're talking about doing. small, limited effort. >> that undermined a threat in the first placc and threat for military action eroded further. what critics say has been a zigzaggg policy toward syria has raised concerns in washington and capitals around the world of both the u.s. message and mission. >> he talks about an attack that is unbelievable small in the same to the president says the u.s. military doesn't do pinpricks, you wonder whether or not the messaging is correct. barack obama is the most controlling for president since nixon. he does not degate, he dominates. >> he knows a lot more about foreign policy then barack obama does. that is with the president has set it up. one of the reasons why he makes so many mistakes. >> after mr. obama noted drone strikes had been reduced and pakistan, his suggested appeared to up the ante.

spiegel and think the program will end. he is a very real timeline and e hope it will be very soon. >> kerry had to acknowledge it has been a school of hard knocks. >> no decision is made until the president of the united states makes a decision. >> now his offer a meeting with the russian counterpart tomorrow on how syria says to give up the cmical weapons. lou: thank you very much. today is also of course the first anniversary of the benghazi attacks. the obama administration has yet to bring to justice those responsible for the death of four america who were killed in libya, nor have they taken steps to punish those in our own government that left the u.s. consulate so vulnerable in such an obvious and significant day.

fox news chief intelligence correspondent with our report. >> as a nation marked the worth terrorist attack on u.s. soil, eric holder publicly honored the heroism of four americans murdered in benghazi. in this letter, the cia pushed to make the survivors available to congressional investigators. >> acted with great avery and patriotism. report met with the new images, they poised frustration. >> i will not give up. my only child. i want answers. >> the politi policy decision to maintain the consulate was substandard made at the highest level of the state department by fficials who so escaped blame. this action signed by undersecretary management patrick kennedy nine months before the assault okay the

operation with the promise of better security that was never fulfilled. a seasoned diplomats tha said he needed cover from executives on the seventh floor. >> i feel for a place as sensitive as libya with the kerry clinton directly i don't think he would have made what is a really fundamentally political decision purely on management. speak of the decision to keep the post open as security unraveled, but the significance of the conversation between ambassador stevens and clinton was largely overlooked. >> clinton wanted benghazi converted into a permanent constituent post. >> he testified stevens was under pressure to pose together a list of upgrades to make clinton school possible. >> before december 30 at the end of the fiscal year. >> the policy goal is to make it permanent with a surprise to

investor who cochaired the state department investigation. mrs. clinton was never interviewed. part of the investigation june, fox news asked the media office with a mrs. clinton said the policy as the evidence just and whether undersecretary kennedy consulted her. after initially downplayed the significance of the memo and testimony the spokesperson said she would look into it. it is worth noting that a secure clinton nor the under secretary or other senior executives at the state department were held as possible for creating one of the family members described to fox news as a death trap. lou: 20 of four former deputy assistant to george bush, former congressman of fox news contributor allen west. thank you both for being here. let me start with you. your reaction to that speech. >> it is a speech that never said that given by the president at prime time. he had nothing to say that was

the import to go around the world to give a message that basically says we're standing down, not ask the congress to act. lou: you are surely cheering the fact he made that speech. >> i don't share the fact he made it a total embarrassment of the office of the presidency of the united states. this ne this speech that went around the world. we are not going to war, president asked us to stand down for the time being we need to see if this idea is going to be even relevant. lou: can i guess just from you at least crocodile tears about all of this? any hope that republicans are going to seize upon his performance and say we told you so? >> i don't think you have to take that kind of immature reaction. i believe the president is doing a very good job with the ambush

destroying himself. lou: that is what i was waiting for. >> and most important thing is when you look at the speech the president gave last night talking about this moral obligation. would have told him don't give a speech like this with less than 24 hours later is the first anniversary of the loss of four americans in benghazi where you said it was a scandal. furthermore the pre-much show abandoned americans in a combat zone under attack. the object of this was horrible. what to talk my national security interest, sovereign american territory was attacked in benghazi. you nt to talk about military action? we have not done anything to after the people and would know it was aligned to al qaeda that conducted this operation. now today the "washington post" it was said this was a well-planned operation long

before this video. so we had a president who deceived the american people and he has not done anything in benghazi but destabilize that country. lou: as i wrote last night this president is not talking about the anniversary of benghazi or september 11. incredible oversight, a failure of grace. to me duty as president. you're talking about this is an embarrassing performance across the world. embarrassing beyond belief because it is so contradictory and i don't understand the contradiction to say that is the worst speech by a president i have ever witnessed. >> not only that, it was intentional. he left benghazi out because he could not go there because he knows the american people know they have been misled. the president was on the verge of taking us to war.

we don't even have a homeland security. even nominated for that post. there are at least 20 positions in the homeland security with no nominees. how is that possible? how do you blame the republicans on his failure to nominate a secretary of homeland security at this critical time? >> once again i think we have a vey confusing form policy when it comes to the middle east. if anything destabilizing more countries. you embolden our enemies and you really do abandon our allies. he went in there without congressional approval, so so as they say he needs congressional approval is not the case. whether what is happened in egypt. he made a campaign decision to not leave residual forces in iraq. now he is gone off on a venture into syria which is ill-advised.

lou: hopefully it is an adventure that is not going to occur. and the pivot as you point out, the pivot seems to be the is turned squarely to vladimir putin. as his resource of last resort. thank you both. cap next a look at what was another big day on wall street in the fall of the new york city mayoral race. new yorkers were not in a forgiving, foolish mood. and the colorado recall elections. but first, we pay tribute to those we lost on this solemn day 12 years ago america's heroes who gave their lives defending this nation in the aftermath of september 11.

♪ >> it will have zero effect in congress or in the public opinion. >> he does not have a plan b. limited, targeted very small footprint attack. speak up is out point between what we don't like having been done by the assad regime copies of chemical weapons, and what we would do to prevent it from happening again around the world. >> it happens to all presidents

we had but here, maybe sooner than usual. lou: that is some reaction to what some of the president said last night. i don't know why the president even bothered to give that speech. this is what i wrote last night as the president was wrapping up his talk. one of the most warped speeches given by a president. stunning, illogic and emotionally flat. the president could hardly have been more illogical. he declared america's not the worlds policemen, not the worlds policemen, and then went on to ask congress to give him authority to act as that policemen and to support him. he also told us hewould explain why syria is a danger to our security. he was going to tell us that. do you feel they are a danger to your security today? he was at best unpersuasive.

declaring it would be to deter assad from using chemical weapons. to make clear to the world we will not tolerate their use with this little, tiny, limited, proportional, oh so small strike. france and the united states, france is maybe so we is you, me and the rest of us. he reminded us he is the president of a constitutional democracy. is really a constitutional republic. and we know they should have said that, we know what he meant. rhetorical contortions then became extreme straining all logic the president saying he has authority to order military strikes, he has that authority when there is a direct and imminent threat to this nation's security the head and he told us

he decided to take the debates to congress because he felt it would be better. declare the u.s. military does not do him interested you and limited strike would send a message to assad. the pinpricks that we don't do would be convincing to assad, he asserted. but then he sd he would not remove a dictator by force but targeted strike uld make him think twice before using chemical weapons. whatever happened to qaddafi? and a radical islamist extremist part of the opposition that they are really just like you and me wanting to live in peace and dignity and freedom. anyway. he didn't say a similar example outside of israel and the middle east of a democracy, peace and freedom being enjoyed by folks like us.

interestingly he didn't even try to explain how to fix various state and russia's president came to be the principal players in resolving the syrian problem. the time he finished it was clear mr. obama had given up any pretense of logic or for that matter caring for the seven ultimatums or the so-called red lines he and his administration delivered ovethe past year. seconseconded last line is simpy amazing. that second to last line reads with humility but with resolve let us never lose sightf that esessential truth. as you analyze the sender grap d paragraph, he is referring to american taking action, but the declarative sentence on the outset is this. america is not the worlds policeman. that essential truth most americans agree.

lou: president obama asking to mount the force in syria last night. there is a man at the center of it all, we are joined by congressman bob goodlatte, chairman of the house judiciary

committee. congressman, it's great to be with us. let's begin with the president's speech from last night. your reaction to what was a little bit more of the demons of national television airtime to the american people. >> well, first of i have had the opportunity to hear from my constituents, who were overwhelmingly opposed to the more than 2000 people to contact my office through telephone calls and e-mails, 90 some percent were opposed to the united states taking military action. the night before i had been briefed by secretary of state john kerry, secretary of defense chuck hagel and other top defense individuals and have had an opportunity to listen to members of congress ask a multitude of questions about how this would happen and what the impact would be and what the ramifications would be. i have determined that they

would not be able to support the resolution that the president was seeking. so when i listen to the president, i was listening to whether he could make an additional case, he makes a strong case that syria should not be used in chemical weapons and it's deplorable that they have done that. not a strong case that we can stop him in the manner that we have talked about doing or avoid other consequences of the action. so i was pleased and i think it was wise on his part at the end of his speech to say that he was going to ask the congress to postpone vote on the resolution as he explored with the russians and the syrians whether hey are serious about the proposal that they put forward what the with the russians to turn these chemical weapons over to an

international body or third party, if that indeed takes place, that would be a good resolution of the problems that exist in syria, and i think that he knew definitely that he was going to face an overwhelming bipartisan vote against the resolution. so i think you made the right decision and at the outset after talking about this unilaterally, i think he did this under pressure from the public and the congress and democrats in the congress, and seeing what has happened in the british parliament, it helped him to make the right decision to come for congress, not just to consult, but to seek authorization and i think that he is required to do that under law. he did not develop libya, i do not think that that was the right way to handle it. and i think that this circumstance, he did two things right, but we still haven't figured out the right way to solve this problem, and it is

not using drones to attack targets in syria. we don't know that that would have any impact on chemical weapons. lou: mr. chairman, have you ever seen a president standing before cameras to approve and support his desire to strike a sovereign nation unilaterally, and at the same time, call 48 away in the bill for the authority that he had sought at the outset. what are your thoughts on this? >> well, it was schizophrenic in that regard. clearly he wants to impress upon the american people that the seriousness of the problem, it was also apparent to me that he and his administration did not

have a coherent plan that people could look at it and say, yes, this is an achievable objective it isgoing to have a positive result, and we know how we will expect ourselves and we know tht we will not be having serious ramifications for ourselves or a host of other groups concerned about what might happen here. christians in syria and neighboring countries and so on. so from that standpoint, i don't think it served him well. but i do think that we are pleased that he made a wise decision at the end to back away from asking for that vote and hopefully hell find another way to solve this prblem. >> the president saying that we are not declaring that we are the world's policeman. and i have to say that i found that one of the brightest moments of the speech.

having said that, he seeks to be the world policeman. where ever it may be, this president is not apparently aware of the constraints on power and particularly the greatest constraints are american values, are they not? >> yes, they are. one of the concerns that you have, if you're going to fire these missiles into your country that you have not been involved with military -- militarily, innocent civilians are likely to be killed. and then if we fired a missile and they killed children or other civilians, and we were

doing that as a response to try to prevent them from doing taking action, i think it extends a very wrong message and has dangerous consequences. also president bush and president clinton, they have sought congressional approval, but they also have a large role coalition behind their efforts. here he has a small band of folks are happy to step back and say that you go in and do it, and he will quietly applaud your doing it. but by the way, there were very few people that put their own troops and equipment in dollars on the line. lou: thank you, congressman bob goodlatte. we will have more on the upcoming budget battle, his plans for immigration reform, the house of representatives, and the leading issue of
