[ gun shots ] >> gregg: syrian television reporting as many as 20 people now dead. hundreds more injured after israeli security forces open fire on a crowd of pro palestinian protestors. those protestors trying to rush the border of israel on the anniversary of the 1968 arab-israeli war. israeli officials say they were simply trying to protect their borders. reena ninan joins us live from jerusalem. >> reporter: hi, gregg, they went on for eight hours, much longer people anticipated. at least 20 people are believed to have been killed along the

border along with israel's and syria along the golan heights. they say land mines exploded but there is a lot of increasing concerns in the coming days that that border in the golan heights may be something to watch. all of this is happening because palestinians is marking what they are calling nupsa day, catastrophe day when israel seized gaza. this entire situation is moving momentum to a palestinian state. >> reporter: first clash begin when the palestinians mark wagon they call nupsa day, when israel took over the golan heights. clashes continue here. as you can see tear gas being fired. israeli forces sand a smnd grenades, a lot of protestors told us they wanted to come and

clash they checkpoint, the main checkpoint that takes them into jerusalem to mark this day. a lot of them have crossed into the area only to be pushed by israeli forces, that fired some degree niadz and tear gas. [ gun shots ] >> reporter: we're getting word that syria, lots of palestinians have tried to cross the border into israel to mark this day. the israeli forces fired back, all this happening despite the lebanese government and syrian government announced they were going to close the borders with israel to make sure that people could not cross over. that clearly did not happen today. >> palestinians say if the israeli government do not move closer to the palestinian state by the end of the summer they plan on going to the united nations to get it in the clear, a palestinian state, israel and the u.s. don't want to see that happen. >> gregg: reena ninan, thanks very much. >> heather: celebrating in the streets of yemen, those cheering

after learning that the president there had left the country to seek medical treatment. the embroiled president was wounded in a rocket attack that happened on his compound on friday. he flew to saudi arabia for treatment. the attack comes months after protestors started calling to an end to his 33-year regime. they are reporting that surgery to remove shrapnel and he is awake in and in good condition. >> gregg: will she or won't she? as political watchers as they speculate about sarah palin's presidential ambitions. the former alaska governor fueled a load of talk when she ticked off her national bus tour last week. she is addressing all of the attention surrounding her trip in an exclusive one-on-one interview on fox news sunday. mostly smol live in washington with a preview, molly, is this

bus tour a present cueser to a presidential announcement or just an elaborate tease depending upon your point of view. >> molly: she insisted it was not a campaign tour. for about a week now, she is touring in the washington, d.c. up in the northeast on the. she has gotten a lot of media attention and she heard from the public it's time for america to get back to, quote, our values and free market enterprise. >> we've got to turn things around in 2012. whether it's me throwing my name in the hat or or supporting a candidate, it needs to be positive change in this country. >> molly: is she any closer to making her own decision. not really. they are trying to figure out what the lay of the land will be. >> gregg: and she did have an apology, pretty sure short one

and direct one for declared gop candidate. tell us about that. >> molly: an apology of sorts. one nation bus tour rolled into new hampshire this past thursday. and the same time the former massachusetts governor mitt romney announced his candidacy for president. today palin said if she stole some of romney's thunder she didn't mean to. >> i apologized if i stepped on any of the pr mitt romney needed or wanted. i didn't mean to step on anybody's toes. >> molly: she has criticized the health care law that governor romney signed in massachusetts. she is going to have, quote, a big challenge with republican voters but romney defended the state law and he would as president try to appeal president obama's healthcare law. >> gregg: she didn't need to be there.

i'm sure it was an accident. i'm sure her driver just ended up in new hampshire. really meant to be in new jersey. >> heather: the state of the economy front and center on the sunday talk circuit. white house defgh performance during the economic crisis and beyond but the gop says administration policies are snuffing out jobs. peter doocy has that story in washington. >> reporter: the economy is about million miles when president obama took office. that is according to one of the advisor who says he thinks he is doing okay because it has created some jobs and kept out of a second great depression. >> the president's plan, there is a plan, it has been working. we have been adding jobs significantly over the course of this year.

we face a stiff head wind. this was a tough month, but i don't think we should abandon the idea that what we need to do now is get the private sector. >> speaker said friday they are crushing small business owners with taxes and regulations that are too tough and politicians spending too much. it's time for president to work things out with the gop. >> this week we met with the president. i urged him to change course and work with us on our plan for new jobs and economic growth in our country. we hope he'll take us up on it. we're serious about creating jobs in america but we can't keep taxing people that create jobs. >> he touched on the debt ceiling. he said it's not in the long

time, we have to raise it first and speaker boehner says it isn't going to happen without big time spending cuts. >> heather: peter, thanks. >> gregg: it's one of our nation's most heated issues right now, illegal immigration. it's a growing sticking point in cash strapped california, some groups say there is a simple solution and it could affect california's 2.5 million undocumented immigrants. casey stegall has the details. how are the numbers breaking down here. >> reporter: as you know california is broke and it's looking at ways to save money. so the stays commissioned the own nonpartisan study and nearly $4.5 billion spent on funding services for illegal immigrants each year. the highest cost is education with nearly $2 billion going to teach kids whose parents are in this country illegally. about $1 billion spent on

incarcerated go undocumented citizens and roughly 775 million goes to providing medical services to that segment of the population. >> the state cannot continue to subsidize illegal immigration at that time when you are cutting back essential services for people had that have a right to be here. >> reporter: the federation for immigration reform saying california's money troubles would be over if it stopped paying for the estimated 1.2 million illegal immigrants that call the state home. >> gregg: what do immigration groups say about this. >> reporter: they argue that many undocumented residents pay taxes and they are contributing to the local economy but those numbers are not being factored into these studies. they say if the feds made it easier to be more affordable to become a naturalized citizen to

this country more people would go through the proper channels. >> legal permanent residents that have to wait at least five years before they can access federal assistance. >> reporter: both sides agree on one thing. they say that the federal government should be doing more to pass a comprehensive immigration reform policy instead of leaving so much of the burden on individual states like cash strapped california. >> gregg: casey stegall, thank you. >> heather: crews in arizona working around the clock to on contain some of the largest wildfires in state history. flames forcing evacuations already burning through over 200 square miles of forest and brush. the massive inferno is sending smoke well into new mexico and also into parts of southern colorado. maria is tracking it all for us.

>> unfortunately fire weather conditions are about to get a lot worse. what we have going on very warm temperatures, low humidity and gusty winds. when you combine all those ingredients, any wildfires that do get started up grow rapidly. it's about to get a lot worse. we have dry conditions, no rain over the state of arizona for today, some showers across new mexico and then an area of low pressure off the coast of california. this system is about to head inland and go north of arizona, that will be picking up the winds and unfortunately because it's north of arizona we won't get any rain. as we head in to tomorrow, winds gusting up to 45 miles an hour and sustained up to 30 miles an hour. these wildfires that are already going on, they have potential to continue to burn out of control. not just across the state of arizona but expecting fire weather conditions but parts of

nevada and basically throughout much of the four corners and parts of utah. tomorrow another big story, heat that is going to continue in parts of tennessee down into missouri and parts of louisiana. highs in the upper 90s. it's been a hot weekend and it's going to continue to stay hot through next week. now taking a look at the tropics. we have been tracking an area of low pressure 150 miles southwest of jamaica and it's showing more organization. there is about 40% chance that next 48 hours it could become our first tropical cyclone. still a lot to go. we'll continue to track it and even if it doesn't become a tropical storm it has the pit bull to produce flash flooding and mudslides across areas like jamaica and haiti. >> heather: just june 5th and already in the upper 90s. >> gregg: are you a big fan of

facebook these days. >> heather: i have a facebook page and i have a twitter page. >> gregg: you tweet a lot. >> heather: i do. >> gregg: i'm overtweeted, i'm all tweeted out. social network site find new ways to like you. >> heather: and they may not have pinpointed the culprit of e. coli in europe. >> gregg: powerful testimony in the casey anthony murder trial, could a legal loophole set her free? >> can you honestly tell this jury that at that point in your investigation casey anthony was not a suspect? >> a suspect of what? >> of anything, of any crime.

that you have in your photos and marking them to you with taylor made internet ads. how intrusive could it become? joining us is brenda butner, anchor of bulls and bears. big brother, has it become big business? >> certainly people are afraid of that. there was a recent survey over a decade. it's quite comprehensive of internet usage. this started way back when we used dial up and those ancient things. it turned out clearly the concern big business is going to make money with those on facebook. >> heather: some of the statistics, 68% of internet

users shopping online, books and gifts most popular categories. >> remember when everybody would say -- oh, i don't go online, i don't buy online, i don't bank online. half of the people bank online and they are not nervous about that. >> heather: in my bank you have to specify if you still want paper copies because they will automatically do it on line until unless you don't want it. >> absolutely. other things that came out of the survey that were a little bit surprising. i think 18% don't use the internet. the cost is number one reason for that. really what has changed over the last decade we used to use the internet kind of like tv. we would go on for a little while. then we would go off. it was once a day. now, most of us, many of us use our phones, all mobile.

the p.c. is vying as the connection today. it is constant in lies. >> heather: we have to mention the fox news app as one example. i didn't know about this tagging photos in facebook. apparently if you have a picture and you post it on facebook, like you have a diet coke in your hand, they zero in on that and they advertise toward you. it's scary. >> this is going to be big moneymaker, they have to constantly find ways for growing numbers that are using it. of course, companies would pay premium rates for the right to be able to get specifically to the people who are using their product. it used that you could only tag some but can tag products and

pictures and all the rest. >> heather: thank you very much. >> gregg: i don't have any friends to de-friend. testimony in the casey anthony murder trial resuming tomorrow but a bombshell in orlando, florida, a forensics expert on the stand that a single strand of decomposing hair found in anthony's car might have actually belonged to a two-year-old daughter caylee. casey is charged with the death. but legal experts are questioning if casey anthony's rights were violated. listen to this audiotape between casey and police. >> tell us what happened to caylee. tell us what happened to caylee.

>> no, you didn't. >> no you didn't. >> no, you didn't. no. that is not true. >> gregg: casey anthony's legal rights a very hot topic of debate. geraldo at large, take a listen to this. >> i think that any lawyer hearing that the actual interrogation how rough it was and how tough it was to stay the state may have given her a gift and only gift in this trial a point positive on appellate reversal. she was being interrogated very harshly. she was the focus of the interrogation. very experienced interrogators were pressing all of her buttons. she should have been given a warning she has a right to counsel and the right not to answer those questions. if she wasn't properly mir andized she has a very strong

case on appeal. >> gregg: one of the best appellate lawyers in the nation. there is more at geraldo at large tonight at 10:00 p.m. eastern time. again, our legal panel will be assembled right here in the next hour to talk about that, as well. much more on the casey anthony murder trial coming up. >> definitely looking forward to that. her face there in the courtroom, the lack of any type of emotion. that is amazing. >> there was a body language expert on judge jeanne show also. >> heather: president obama was riding high in the polls after the killing of osama bin laden. they claim the grim news on unemployment on showing the jobs market is hitting a brick wall. how will it affect the president's campaign strategy. >> and robert gates visiting afghanistan in one of his last official trips before stepping

in. >> and trying to break up pro palestinian mobs, syrian television reporting almost 20 deaths. >> heather: secretary of defense robert gates flashing the yellow light, withdrawal of combat troops would be down slowly and responsibly. comments coming as the impact chief holds high level talks with david petraeus. top commander of u.s. troops in the war-torn country. conor powell is streaming live from afghanistan. >> reporter: this is gates' 12th and final visit to afghanistan. much of the time will be spent with u.s. troops. he took time to visit troops in southern afghanistan thanking them for their service and their efforts over the past year or so particularly the ones that have arrived as part of president obama's december 2009 surge heater military officials including secretary gates are upbeat about the progress that

has been made here in afghanistan. secretary gates did talk to media here in a joint press conference with hamid karzai. he said to afghans should take a larger role for the overall security picture in afghanistan. in terms of the withdrawal that is supposed to begin on july 1st. secretary gates described it as a modest withdrawal this summer. he did not characterize as significant or large as some members of congress and officials at the white house have wanted to see. they want to see a larger withdrawal. now, the big question going forward, though, will the u.s. forces here be able to hand over security responsibility to afghans. military officials are upbeat about the progress in developing secures forces but nobody is quite sure if the progress is enough so that u.s. and

international forces can hand them over timely to afghan forces. that is what general apay and defense secretary gates is talking about as we speak. >> heather: thanks, conor. >> gregg: president obama seemed to have been enjoying a good stretch since osama bin laden. stock market was chugging along and economy was slowly adding jobs but unemployment rate got up to 9.1%. combined with rising consumer prices, will this cause president obama to change his reelection strategy? joining us now matt slap, and democratic campaign consultant ryan clayton. ryan, let me start with you. the economic picture is

increasingly bleak. unemployment is up. consumer prices rising, manufacturing down, home prices falling, consumer confidence dropping, economic growth slowing, dollar is sinking and layoffs continue and yet the president calls the latest news, quote, a bump in the road. it certainly more than that for millions of americans who are suffering terribly. does the president need to change his strategy but his rhetoric, as well? >> the american economy is based on a balance of supply and demand. right now there is no supply side solution. what we need demand side solution. we need americans with jobs and we need, americans with money in the pocket ready to spend. >> gregg: does the president need to change his rhetoric and his strategy? >> obama has been focused on jobs from day one, putting out a message we need to get america to get back to work. we need a stimulus and stabilize

the economy and sim stimulate the economy. obama took meaningful action to put americans back to work to cut unemployment every month he has been in office. unemployment has been going down >> gregg: he promised if the stimulus would pass, by now unemployment would be at 7%. it's at 9.1%. matt the recovery has been slowed by events beyond his control and our control. the president has pointed that out in fairness. japan's crisis, ininstability in the middle east, rising gas prices. would you agree that president obama can hardly be blamed for those things? >> i certainly think it's unfair to blame for a president for natural disasters. presidents have to deal with any issue across the globe. when it comes to the high prices

of commodities like fossil fuels oil and gas, i think the president has had the wrong policies. epa is pursuing still, regulating carbon oxide emissions and after the tragedy in the close. the problem is when you stop the production of oil and gas it takes a long time for the resources to come on line. i think i it's had a h a negative impact on the price at the pump. >> gregg: republican argument will be this in 2012. we tried president obama's plan, the stimulus, regulation and it did not work. as i mentioned a moment ago, he promised unemployment would be around 7% if we passed the stimulus. unemployment is rising. it's time to try a different approach, cut spending and reduce taxes and that will

stimulate growth. will you admit the electorate that is hurting that could be an attract tracked i have argument? >> we elected president obama as president of united states not superman. the republican plan proposed by paul ryan that is going to gut medicare, it's going to increase the debt and we're going to lose two million jobs in two years. i don't think whoever is running can't win a winning campaign on that. >> gregg: in today's washington posted, republicans have chosen to focus on debt and spending without effectively dealing with the public's worries about jobs and housing. they have lost some of the post election glow from last fall. is he right? >> i actually don't think he is right. what is happening today the markets are watching what the politicians are doing about our

debt. for the first time our spending has gotten the attention of these capital markets and people that have investments that are on the sidelines. the fact that america's rating could be reduced by moody's, international community is making a judgment on what we are doing to get our fiscal house in order. the judgment is that we are not doing enough. if we don't get a deal soon on the budget, there is going to be dire consequences for our economy. the way for president obama is to do what he said in 2008, reach across the aisle, sit down with republicans and democrats and let's get a deal. >> gregg: this has been an awful week for jobless americans, the economy and stock market, yet the president started off by playing golf on monday and ended by playing golf yesterday. since he took office two years and four months ago, the president has played 71 is rounds of golf.

i haven't played 71 rounds in a decade. i daresay i am a bigger golfer than he is. sure he is entitled to a little r and r. we didn't elect him to work on his handicap. shouldn't the image, the leader of the free world with his sleeves rolled up and working to solve the problems that are plaguing americans? >> yeah, you know. obama has been playing some golf but i'm not going to talk about his score card on the golf course. what is more important is the score card where our country is going. he has been an excellent political leader. he has made tough choices. there is a lot of things and there is a long way to go. obama is doing a heck of a job and it's going to get better from here. >> gregg: all right, gentlemen, good to see you both.

>> heather: people not willing to take it anymore saying security pat-downs. they are just too aggressive. one state considering banning them, banning them all out. find out how the federal government is responding. >> gregg: teacher is taking off the gloves and punching a student square in the jaw. slugfest that shocked the nation. he recommended citracal. it's different -- it's calcium citrate, so it can be absorbed with or without food. also available in small, easy-to-swallow petites. citracal. ♪

and. thank you all so much for joining us. so the first topic we want to talk about, tsa patdown and in the state of texas, there was a rally against them. how do you feel about it? >> would you prefer to be blown up in your plane. that is the choice. some discretion can be used. we're learning how to do it better. tsa needs to use common sense what is at stake here. the texas approach is not the way to go. >> i actually got patted down, it was not that big of a deal. we're on flights several times a month. i would rather be safe than be

sorry. >> i think it's a bad choice of resources. why are we patting down three-year-old kid and patting down the same person some 22-year-old guy who has got a visa who has been to the middle east multiple times. i think we need is to take our resources which are limited and focus them on the people who are terrorist potential. >> and not pat down three-year-olds. >> israelis do it, they don't do all these other things, but they have a great system. >> not the three-year-old, it's the mom or dad that may be putting the dynamite in. >> isn't it sad in general this is the world we live in right now. we would have to think of

something like that. >> they also are objecting to go through the machine. you can't have both. go through the machine and it would be fine. if we're not willing to move forward with technology. another topic, we wanted to talk about, our next topic which is a fist fight, and it just happened on an airline. recent occasion was a united flight over d.c. airspace. one of the passengers, he redeclined his seat back too far to the liking of person behind him. the flight had to return. what is happening? >> you know, if you pay your employees so little and they are stressed out and the seats are so small and you don't give people food and drink.

[ laughter ] >> they are going to be angry and frustrated. this is going to happen. there is something beyond that. >> we regulate from the toilet dispensers to dog food, why we are not regulating how far the seats go back. >> heather: we actually have sound of what happened on that flight. if we can take a listen to that. >> passenger security. >> passenger is not secured at this time. the passenger has settled down. not secured. >> what do you think? >> we're going to have to pay for the $50,000 and fighter jets to actually escort the ma plane

back to dulles. that is an incredible waste of money. nobody was charged in this case. it's a case of how angry passengers are. i admit that is why i like southwest airlines it would make it easier. >> free drinks all around. >> that would have happened on some of the discount airlines. >> $50,000 worth of fuel dunltd in the ocean so they could return. final topic, we all heard about this. they happened in high hend hotels specifically in new york where some individuals, some patrons have attacked some maids who have come in to clean their rooms. the most high profile case is dominique strauss-kahn and most recently an egyptian businessman doing the same thing.

so to install panic buttons in the rooms to protect these housekeepers that come in to do their job. >> because their supervisors for too long said, stay in the room. if something happens don't say anything because these are paying customers and we wanted them to be happy. >> i think it would be even better is to have a video camera. somebody rings the bell, bathrobe is open, take a picture. that guy is never going to do that again. >> i don't know. [ laughter ] >> these cleaners in the hotels have a voice through their union. this is one thing, the unions have stood up for them and panic buttons and other devices they can protect themselves. this has been a dirty little

secret. >> heather: another thing to think about. we're not done yet. we have a lot more. >> gregg: reading, writing and punching students learn an unexpected lesson on how to throw a right hook. the teacher that puchblgd her student. we'll have the very latest on that. r's part fish. but when she got asthma, all i could do was worry ! specialists, lots of doctors, lots of advice... and my hands were full. i couldn't sort through it all. with unitedhealthcare, it's different. we have cess to great specialists, and our pediatrician gets all the information. everyone works as a team. and i only need to talk to one person about her care. we're more than 78,000 people looking out for 70 million americans. that's health in numbers. unitedhealthcare. so let's plant some perennials that'll turn up every year. trees and shrubs to give us depth.

>> gregg: some of the headlines we're following. syrian television reporting at least 20 people are dead, hundreds more injured after israeli forces opened fire on pro palestinian protestors. storming the border on the 44th anniversary of the israeli war. >> dozens of people on hide

according to one of president obama's top economic advisors, austan goolsbee who says he are doing okay because the boss's guidance kept us out of a second great depression. >> i think the president's plan is -- there is a plan, it has been working, we have been adding jobs. significantly. over the course of the year. we faced a stiff headwind and this was a tough month. but, i don't think that we should abandon the idea that what we need to do now is gets the private sector stood up. >> reporter: republicans couldn't disagree more. speaker boehner said on friday the president is crushing small business owners with taxes that are too high and regulations too tough and politicians who are spending too much and it is tomorrow the president worked things out with the g.o.p., now. >> this week house republicans met with the president, urged him to change course and work with us, on our plan, for new jobs, and economic growth in our country.

we hope he'll take us up on our invitation. we can't raise taxes on the very people who create jobs, and keep spending money that we don't have. >> reporter: speaking of money we don't have, goolsbee touched on the debt ceiling and said it is not an alarm clock and you can't let it reach the limited, we have to raise it first and speaker boehner said again this week it will not happen without big time spending cuts. gregg? >> gregg: all right, peter doocy in washington, thanks very much. heather. >> heather: we've heard the job market is especially tough, for one group of americans, teenagers facing long odds of finding summer jobs. look at this. the unemployment rate, last month, for teens between 16 and 19 years old, just over 24%, and the number doesn't count those who have stopped looking for work. because they are discouraged. only one in four teenagers found a job last summer and are expecting no improvement this

reporting 20 people are dead after israeli forces opened fire on pro palestinian protesters and this demonstrators storming the border on the anniversary of the arab defeat in the 1967 arab-is really war, dozens hurt after a massive explosion in downtown nairobi and kenya. has been on high alert sings the killing of usama bin laden. because of threats from militants, in neighboring somalia. and, it could be a major break through in the fight against skin cancer, doctors say two new experimental drugs are boosting the survival rates of people suffering from melanoma. >> gregg: more legal pot wathot for goldman sachs, the district attorney's office, slapping the financial giant with a subpoena, digging for information on the firm's activity leading up to the big credit crisis. what does it mean for goldman sachs's future? here, senior business correspondent, brenda buttner, anchor of "bulls & bears."

great to see you. we don't know precisely what the d.a.'s office is looking into but i suspect it is the senate report in which goldman sachs was steering investors towards mortgage securities it knew was going to fail. >> yes. and interesting, because, the head of that committee, who wrote the report, thinks that perhaps the ceo may have purr injured himself, basically, because, he said they weren't making such a big bet and it is clear that they were going short on the securities when they were telling investors, buy them. >> gregg: in other words, goldman sachs was betting they'd go down and they were designed to go down, and they were pedaling them to their own clients, if they were going to go off. and, their failure to disclose to their clients that the institution, goldman sachs, was betting they would go down or in fact have any position at all. arguably, legally, that could be fraud, material misrepresentation of fact, or

failing to disclose important, relevant facts. >> right. the question is, is it material and is it basic business on the street? you know, they can say, basically, you know, most investors should know we will be look at our own best interest. >> gregg: most investors, would say i didn't know you, goldman sachs, had designed these to lose money. >> that is really where the -- it gets interesting. because, they were designed to go down. and that was not always obviously, a disclosure. >> gregg: a few days ago an editorial in "the san francisco chronicle," entitled "billion blankfein has to go." the ceo of goldman sachs. this mirror exactly what you said. the report appears to suggest blankfein perjured himself by in sitis i cysting his firm did not have a large short position.

and, it is confounding to me, i would swear under oath we don't have a short position when he has no know documents reflect the contrary. >> yeah, you can't know what was going on in his mine at the time. >> gregg: maybe he'll say, i can't know everything. but, went on the to say, this is what i want to get to, blankfein is synonymous with the crisis and, goldman sachs is a purveyor of green corruption and cronyism in wall street. >> you know in middle america, people look at wall street and say, it is greed is good. and, goldman sachs, the 5th largest investment bank in terms of assets, is one of the biggies. and it could have a huge target on it after that senate committee said, you know, possible perjury, not telling investors, what... you know, what exactly you are investing in.

you know, and, the head of the bank, obviously, is going to -- i think will become the poster boy for -- >> gregg: here's what i don't get, shareholders lost 20% of their value, in 2011, notwithstanding relatively strong market environment. >> right. >> gregg: despite -- >> most of the 17% was since the senate report came out and this is individually against goldman, not just financial firms. >> gregg: last night i watched the hbo special, "too big to fail" and lloyd blankfein does not come out well, which under scores my next question, has he on balance damaged the goldman brand, which used to be the gold standard. >> the gold standard, exactly. you know, i think that if you ask most people about goldman sachs, they'll say, they are just looking after themselves, and, now there is a possibility of criminal charges.

because there are lower standards than in federal securities, under federal securities law, the manhattan d.a. can bring up. >> gregg: we know what happened to arthur andersen, they went out of business after being convicted criminally. >> but i don't think that will happen, arthur andersen, an accounting firm has to have a stellar, perfect record, basically. most people think investment banks will be looking out for themselves and i'm not so sure the clients but the board of directors will determine whether or not he keeps his job and a lot of cronyism going on. >> gregg: as a footnoted, the supreme court eventually overturned the conviction on arthur andersen. and by then as too late, and, it doesn't exist any more. i don't think that will happen to goldman, i think you are right. >> i don't, either. >> heather: dreaded pat-downs at the airport... >> gregg: i never have been patd down. >> heather: i have been, once or twice, a state trying to ban them outright. we'll tell you where.

>> gregg: and, then, dramatic testimony, chilling evidence in the casey anthony murder trial. are prosecutors making their case? our legal panel weighs in, coming up.

♪ >> gregg: bottom of the hour time for top of the news, german officials shutting down a farm believed to be the source of an e. coli outbreak, that killed 22 people, initial testing confirming bean sprouts from the farm are likely the cause. and syrian television claiming thousands staging a sit in at the golan heights border and protests following unconfirmed reports at least 20 people were killed and hundreds more injured by israeli gunfire, along the border. and, this is amateur video, capturing a harrowing ride at a new york festival and several children were playing inside the inflatable bounce house and a gust of wind sent it airborne. none of the injuries are serious.

>> heather: the job market hits a brick wall, and president obama switches metaphors on us, how he is describe the economy, and he described it as stuck in a ditch and now calls it a bump in the road and some say he should focus less on praises and more on policies to get the economy back in order and here with in sight personally your thoughts on the issue, fox news contributor and "new york post" columnist, michael goodwin, thanks for joining us. >> sure, heather. >> heather: a bump in toledo, not bad, 9.1%, unemployment, just a bump in the road, right. >> if you have a job it is just a bump in the road. if not, the old line, when your neighbor loses his job it is a recession and when you lose yours it is a depression and i think for a lot of americans we're in a depression. i heard a number the other day, that when you add up the official unemployed, those who have stopped looking, who are not counted and those who are under employed, in part-time jobs, you have 24 million americans, just thing of the

misery and all of those families and, the lost economic growth and power of the country, sort of the intergenerational consequences of people being out of work for a long time. a very serious issue, that i believe the president has failed to address properly. >> heather: it's a serious issue, i was out of a while for a little while and it is not fun and is not a bump in the road and mentioned the dramatic turnover in the administration. >> it is funny, because if it were george bush we would be getting reams of reports about how the inside, what is going on behind the bush white house, here you have really the four -- four of the top economic people have left, larry summers, jared bernstein, peter orszag and christine na ro-- christina romd all have been unhappy with things then administration, or they talked about trying to get

the president to focus on the debt without success and, they felt it was put off done the road and what you see is a sense, the democrats have both houses of congress and the white house, kiosks, for 2 years, did everything they wanted to do, did every kind of policy changes they wanted from stimulus to obamacare to the dodd frank financial reform and here's what we have as a result. unemployment is now higher than when the president took office. not only to suggest everything that happened is his fault but the fact is that the recession ended officially, two years ago, in june of 2009 and we're in june of 2011, now, and unemployment is going back up. housing starts have reached a new bottom, you have consumer confidence along the bottom and all kinds of measurements telling us the economy slowed down despite record low interest rates, despite enormous amounts of pumping by the government and federal reserve and still no real job creation in the private sector. >> heather: that is all the bad

news. when we put you on the spot. which of his policies have worked? any? >> look, the most important thing president obama did, on the economy, was to give the confidence to people that the government is here to help. and i don't mean that to be sar task. the t.a.r.p. program as flawed as it was was necessary and he voted for it as a senator, bend it came about under president bush, but i think the specific policies, such as stimulus, oba obamaca obamacare, the dodd-frank bill, stood in the way of job creation and during the health care thing we kept hearing how the president would pivot to jobs, pivot to jobs and the health care thing went on far too long and a lot of job creators said it will cost me more to hire. you talk about the aid to bailouts and to homeowners and a lot of economists think what that did, was effectively gum up the works of clearing the

housing market, and you have people in their houses who cannot afford them and the same with the car buyers, you know, cash for clunkers, stimulated purchases in 2010 and slowed them down for 2011. and, so none over these things fixed what is wrong and they have thrown sugar into the bloodstream an given everybody a buzz but has not fixed anything. >> heather: a band aid on it. we talked about his chances for re-election. president obama. historically, incumbent presidents, when unemployment, when the unemployment rate was below 6%, they won. above 6%, they lost, one exception, ronald reagan, who was re-elected in 1984 when unemployment was over 7%. but the big difference, it was coming down fast from a peak of 10.8 in 1982. my question, will president obama be reelected? >> well, look, the white house, you know, they say now that the answer to that question, when

you put it to them, is essentially what direction, as you said, about ronald reagan, that, it was improving quickly. i think that is the right standard. that if things are getting better in demonstrable ways for ordinary people, i think he has a very good chance of being elected. of course, it depends on other circumstances and certainly depends on who the republican nominee is, but i think that the question we see now with unemployment rising and the fact that there are so many people under employed who have given up looking for work, it is possible that if the economy were suddenly to get better, and i think to get better means to create, really, over 250,000 jobs, a month. that is the kind of push you would need to really get within striking distance, of 7%, by election day. so, i don't think -- unless we see that on a consistent basis, it is hard to see what argument the president can make, on half of his own economic policies. >> heather: we'll see what happens, thank you so much, have to wrap you up, and people can read your column in its entirety in the sunday "new york post." thanks for joining us.

>> my pleasure. >> gregg: deja vu in texas, lawmakers baktd off a bill to outlaw aggressive pat-downs at airports and the lone star state may be having a change of heart. the sponsor of the bill says the measure is gaining support in very powerful places. julie bandaras is live in our fox news room with details. >> you can call them obtrusive or a violation of privacy, and supportsers of a bill to make intrusive pat-downs a crime are in force, rallying at the capitol in texas and the group, texans for accountable government wants a bill to stop pat-downs to be revisited during the special session. it would ban pat-downs at airport security lines and bring criminal charges for tsa agents if they were to touch someone inappropriately and the bill passed unanimously in the house and republicans withdrew their support, fearing a lawsuit from the federal government and possibility of flight cancellations in texas. so the bill died in the senate.

well, supporters believe those searches violate their constitutional rights. >> i will never again allow myself to be subjected to such disgusting abuses of power. [cheers and applause]. >> the idea is that they would be grabbing any of my private parts. >> reporter: and it's not just in texas, people are having strong opinions about these pat-downs, legislators in other states are chiming in, too, republican representative carl rimer, intends to introduce legislation in january, that would ban pat-downs without probable cause by transportation security administration workers. he says, quote, there is only two places citizens are subjected to this type of intrusive search, at airports, and jails, and that should be chilling, end quote and if the bill doesn't pass, some say they'll actually look at other travel options, while others say if the patted downs are necessary to keep the country safe, well, then, they are all for it. gregg?

>> gregg: julie bandaras, thanks very much. is it possible the casey anthony murder trial could hinge on a single strand of hair? it was recovered from the trunk expert, who testified yesterday showed signs of decompensation meaning it likely came from a dead body and another crime scene investigator collected air samples that reflected a strong odor. listen: >> not only the vehicle but the garage that the vehicle -- bay the vehicle was parked in, i took air samples of the garage itself. >> gregg: let's bring en our legal panel, former prosecutor and defence attorney, joey jackson joins us, former prosecutor and defense attorney, david schwartz. fox news legal analyst, lis weihl. good to see you both. lis, let me start with you, testimony is not always reliable and not always admissible. it was admitted here. some call that junk science but

when you take it and you couple it with the air samples that we're taking, indicating a dead body, how incriminating an powerful is it. >>criminating and powerful and it was found in the back of the trunk where the smell is emanating. and you couple that with her lies upon lies upon lies, nonforensic testimony, not so important. >> gregg: david, the defense claims that she was sexually abused by her father, and, thus, that accounts for her irrational behavior and many lies but i want you to listen to this jailhouse conversation, previously she was talking about how wonderful her father is. and hears this: >> it is not your fault. it isn't. we all new this was out of love and sometimes... >> tough love, i know. >> exactly, and it is not a bad thing. i want you to know that. you know how much i love you,

how much i have always loved you, you will be me buddy besides my dad. >> gregg: father of the year award now. does it negate or belie her claim that he abused her. >> it doesn't show a loving relationship by any stretch of the imagination, a clip from a jailhouse interview, between father and daughter. >> gregg: tell that to the jury. >> that is irrelevant. as to that ultimate question, in the case, whether or not she was xael abused and, you know, whether or not he was sexually abused, would go towards her mental state, and may play a role in the penalty phase. >> gregg: a bombshell, in front of the jury, opening statements, the defense has the chance to lay out what happened here, and, it surprised everybody, i must say. jose baez says casesy -- caylee accidentally drowned in the pool. but that had been floated in not only police interviews but jailhouse conversations, here's this one:

>> someone said casy was dead this morning and drowned in the pool and that is they're out there. surprise, surprise. >> gregg: surprise, surprise. does that make her story preposterous. >> they are testing that being the defense, to establish it was a mere accident, a capital murder case and if they can establish it was an accident it knee gates the premeditation an saves her life, i don't like the finger pointing. you say it is an accident, accept responsibility and move on, and the finger pointing that george did it, gregg they could have taken this hair samples and cadaver dogs and everything, saying she panicked and acted irrationally and put the body in the trunk and it doesn't make her a murderer and that is what they should have done and fumbled the opportunity. >> gregg: this wonder if the defense overwho had, they cannot present evidence of drowning or sex abuse without the accused taking the stand.

>> she has to take the stand, unless the case goes down, in closing with the prosecution, they'll say, look the defense promised you this and didn't deliver on any of it. how can you believe what they said. >> gregg: we'll take a quick break, you guys will stick around, more to show our viewers. and, to talk about, more testimony, coming up. in the casey anthony murder trial. could she get the case reversed if convicted? alan dershowitz thinks so and he's one of the best lawyers in the world. we'll put the question to our panel. aren't absorbed properly unless taken with food. he recommended citracal. it's different -- it's calcium citrate, so it can be absorbed with or without food. citracal. i don't know, something.

he's public enemy number one and they have no body and doesn't experience guilt and can't play on that. and knows she will not get beaten in the interrogation, and it is easier for her to maintain her comportment and she's disciplined. >> gregg: disciplined or cold-hearted, that is the question. attorneys joey jackson and david schwartz and lis weihl are back with us. david, during some of the most heart wrenching testimony, the defendant is seemingly emotionless. she may be cold. and maybe cold-hearted. jurors are always glancing over during testimony, especially as the jailhouse conversations are being played in court. and, sometimes she is just stone faced. >> i think that is a bunch of garbage, actually. you could be stone faced, people react differently when you are being accused of murder. there is no play book on how you are supposed to act in a courtroom and i see -- i have seen defendants have smiles on their faces during proceedings and it is a nervous...

>> gregg: that is not good in front of a jury. >> i have -- >> murder of your little toddler. y reminds me of is scott peterson and, i watched him and he was completely stone-faced and when they were showing autopsy report and, of little lacy and connor and he sat there. like this. >> gregg: and joey? >> we have all done trials and i have to line up with david here. i think the case is going to be won and lost on the evidence presented to the jury. when you analyze the body damage and comportment and demeanor of an individual it is tough to read. we all react differently. does it suggest she is more guilty because she smiles or frowns or is stone faced? look at the evidence they present and let's base the facts on that. >> gregg: i'm glad you brought up the peterson case, so many said they don't have a cause of death here and they didn't in the peterson case and you can get a conviction without a body. >> exactly. people raised this as a big deal

and it really is not and many, many cases go without a cause of death because the body is mutilated beyond recognition, and, it has been burned, many, many different things. >> gregg: it doesn't mean, david, that she didn't kill her daughter. >> it doesn't mean it but the defense doesn't have the burden, you can't turn that upside-down and is is up to the prosecution to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt and the cause of death is not an element o crime, it is a apiece of this and -- >> gregg: i want to play a tape that occurred inside the courtroom and jurors listened to this, not watching it. this is police interrogating or interviewing the accused. take a listen: >> everything you told us is a lie. tell us what happened, to caylee. tell us what happened to caylee. >> i dropped off caylee. that is the last time i seen her. i dropped her off -- >> where. >> at that apartment. >> no, you didn't. >> that is exactly where high

dropped her off. >> no, who did you drop her off to -- >> the person... >> that is not true. >> gregg: what is notable, she was not given mer randy rights at the time of what appears to be a stiff interrogation. could this be reversed. >> feenpotentially and we could debate it for hours and, you will have your opinion and lis and david you will have yours, but the judge has been very, very different and allowed evidence in and suggested whatever the evidence may be goes to weight, not admissibility and the judge allowed that and there are arguments whether it is a custodial interrogation and -- >> was she in custody. >> right, was she now -- focus of the investigation. >> gregg: alan dershowitz is wrong? >> my goodness could that happen? >> gregg: i'm stunned. >> it was a voluntary interview and she walked out in that interview. to me that says that she -- she

was a suspect in their mind. >> she was not free to walk out during the interview and it could be an appellate issue and is -- overly aggressive, police tactics, which is the reason why we have the miranda rule en place, and -- custodial interrogation. >> one quick point, is the outcome determinative, there is so much else they can base the case on. >> that is true as well. >> yes or no, given what we have seen, conviction. >> yes. >> yes. >> yes. >> yes. >> gregg: thank you, lis weihl, joey jackson, david schwartz, we'll have much more details the casey anthony murder trial and her resugeraldo will have a spe program tonight at 10:00 eastern, on the fox news channel. >> heather: summer is around the corner but with it lurks the potential dangal, the fear of every parent, sports related

you know this time of year can bring on a multitude of sports mishaps. >> heather: head injuries, concussions in particular and as a parent it is vital that you know immediately what to do, and should you take your child to a doctor, if they take a bad whack. >> gregg: here to talk about that is dr. coomer, assistant professor of medicine at mt. sinai hospital in new york. so there's an app that helps diagnose concussions and you have tried it out. >> i have and actually it is a great opportunities, and, i can put it up here on the screen, and it is actually a... like any other application, you can go on and, then you can list, either say this is a past incident, something you are following or a new incident and there is also other additional sources on here, such as a table, to look up, you know, right here, they have the tables, indications of things to watch for and should be worried about.

and you can go and simply as a parent or as a coach, indicate that you have a new incident and we'll practice with the app and it goes through a series of questions, that will give you an idea, as to whether or not this is -- your child or whoever you are watching, may have sustained a concussion and if so, what to do. it e-mails the information and you can take a photo and send it along with your e-mail and it will actually e-mail it to the a physician who will take the information and then, say, yes, the suspicion is here of a can cushion, call 911, or, if they really think, based on your questioning this is definitely a concussion, they'll direct you to the 911. >> heather: especially, because timing is everything. when dealing with incidents like this. >> it is everything with the concussion and the concussion is like a bruise on the brain, blood dispersed on the brain and the blood can actually cause more swelling in the brain and if it is a very, very significant concussion it can cause a lot of edema in the brain which causes herniation of

the brain into the spinal cord and that is a permanent injury, if not fatal? >> gregg: what is the primary treatment. >> rest, especially for children, mental and physical rest and definitely physical rest from activities 6 weeks and that is what is great about the application, it helps you direct the level of activity for your child, and as you start introducing activities in to the child's life, play time it will direct you to what the appropriate care or activity is, at that time. >> heather: is there any danger associated with this? i think you definitely wouldn't want to depend on those. >> you don't want to depend on this. and like with other time your child may have sustained a head injury or concussion, another adult friend, if there is a question, your are better off seeking medical attention and if you don't think it is severe and would -- you can call your physician and if you are really concerned, especially if there is loss of consciousness and they complain of a severe headache or dizziness or nausea,

are better off going to the emergency room and have a cat scan. >> gregg: kids are active and out there, what can we as parents do to prevent this stuff. >> it is important, though they are playing touch football, to wear protective gear, headgear is important, especially if they are riding a bicycle, running around a pool, slow them down, because the surfaces are slippery. and seatbelts are always important. >> gregg: yes. the old seatbelt. >> absolutely. >> gregg: great, an app. i hear for father's day i might actually get an ipad... and i'll get that app. dr. coomer, thank you so much. >> thanks for having me. >> heather: that wraps it up, fox news sunday with chris wallace, coming up next. >> gregg: we hope you have a great and healthy and happy week, everybody. bye-bye.
