process, and so part of what marks so that it will be in director clapper is doing is to place. the last point i'll make, even if we do everything perfectly, see if we can determine any there will still be, you know, lessons learned from what glitches and bumps, and there happened. >> are you getting all the will be stories that can be intelligence and information you written that says, oh, look, need from the russians? this thing is not work being the and should americans be worried way it's supposed to, and this when they go to big public happened, and that happened, and events now? that's pretty much true of every >> the russians have been very government program that's ever cooperative with us since the been set up. but if we stay with it and we boston bombings. understand what our long-term obviously old habits die-hard, objective is, which is that making sure that in a country as there are still suspicions, wealthy as ours nobody should go bankrupt if they get sick, and sometimes between our intelligence and law enforcement that we would rather have people getting regular checkups than agencies that date back ten, to going to the emergency room because they don't have 20, 30 years, back to the cold healthcare. in we keep that in mind then we'll be able to drive down costs, we'll be able to improve war. but they are continually improving. i've spoken to president putin efficiencies in the system, we'll be able to see people directly, he's committed to working with me to make sure benefit from better healthcare and that will save the country that those who report to us are money as a whole over the long cooperating fully in not only this investigation but about how term. do we work on counterterrorism >> even without cooperation of a
11:01 am
handful of governors, issues generally. particularly large states by in terms of the response of the florida and texas, that you can fully implement? >> i think it's harder, there is no doubt about it. american people, i think everybody can take a cue from >> can you do it without them? >> we will implement it. boston. there will be -- we have a back you don't get a sense that up federal exchange, if states anybody is intimidated when they go to fenway park a couple days aren't cooperating we set up a federal exchange so that people after the bombings. can access that federal exchange. yes it puts more of a burden on there are joggers right now i us. and it's ironic since all these guarantee you all throughout folks say that thief they boston, cambridge, and believe in empowering states, watertown, and i think one of that they are going to end up the things that i've been most having the federal government do proud of in watching the something that we'd actually country's response to president prefer states to do if they were terrible tragedy there is a properly cooperating. sense of resilience and toughness and we are not going to be intimidated. let's see how we're doing on time here. we are going to live our lives. last question. and people i think understand where is antonetta? that we've got to do everything we can to prevent these kinds of attacks from taking place, but tell those big guys to get out of your way. >> two questions there are some people also understand, in the same way they understand after a
11:02 am
shooting in aurora, or newtown, concerns -- [inaudible] or virginia tech, or after the foiled attempts in times square, is there room for a more or in detroit, that we are not going to stop living our lives conservative -- awed -p because warped, twigsed inaudible question. individuals try to intimidate >> yesterday the mexican us. we are going to do what we do, government said all contact with which is go to work, raise our the u.s. law enforcement will now go through a single door. kids, go to ball games, run in marathons, and at the same time it? we're going to make sure that inaudible question stkph-fplt everybody is cooperating, and is [is this change good for the vigilant in doing everything we u.s. relationship with mexico? can, without being naive to try do you see the level of security to prevent these attacks from happening in the future. and cooperation being the same? >> jonathan carl. >> on immigration reform i've >> mr. president you are a hundred days into your second been impressed by the work that was done by the gang of eight in term. the senate. on the gun bill you put it seems everything into it to try to get the bill that they produced is it passed. obviously it didn't. congress has ignored your efforts to try to get them to not the bill that i would have undue these sequester cuts. there was even a bill that you written, there are elements of threatened to veto that got 92 it that i would change, but i do democrats in the house voting think that it meets the basic
11:03 am
yes. so my question to you is, do you criteria that i lai laid out still have the juice to get the rest of your agenda through this from the start, which is, we've congress? >> if you put it that way, got to have more effective jonathan. border security, although it [laughter] >> maybe i should just pack up should build on the great and go home? improvements that have been made golly. you know, i think it's a on border security over the last four to five years. little -- as mark wit twain we should make sure that we are cracking down on employers that said, rumors of my demise may be are gaming the system. we should make the legal a little exaggerated at this immigration system work more point. look, we understand that we are effectively, so that the waits in divided government right now, the republicans control the house of representatives. are not as burdensome, the in the senate this habit of bureaucracy is not as complicated, so that we can requiring 60 votes for even the continue to attract the best and the brightest around the world most modest piece of legislation has gummed up the works there, to our shores in a legal and i think it comes as no fashion, and we want to make sure that we've got a pathway to surprise, not only to the american people, but even citizenship that is tough, but members of congress themselves, that right now things are pretty allows people to earn over time dysfunctional up on capitol
11:04 am
their legal status here in this hill. despite that i'm actually confident that there are a range of things that we'll be able to country. get done. i feel confident that the and, you know, the senate bill bi-partisan work that's been done on immigration reform will meets that -- those criteria. in some cases know the in the result in a bill that passes the ways that i would, but it meets senate, passes the house, and those basic criteria. gets on my desk. and that is going to be a and i think it's a testament to historic achievement. the senators that were involved and i've been very complementary of the efforts of both the that they made some tough republicans and democrats in choices and made some tough those efforts. compromises in order to hammer out that bill. it is true that the sequester is now i haven't seen what in place right now, it's members of the house are yet damaging our economy, it's proposing. hurting our people, and we need and maybe, they think that to lift it. they can answer some of those questions differently what is clear is that the only way we're going to lift it is if or better than, i think we do a bigger deal that meets we've got to be open-minded and seeing what they come up the test of lowering our deficit with w the bottom line though is, that they still got to meet those basic criteria. and growing our economy at the same time. and that is going to require bus it make the world safer? some compromises on the part of is it dealing with employers both democrats and republicans. i've had some good conversations and how they work with, with
11:05 am
with republican senators so far, those conversations are the governments to make sure that people are not being continuing. i think there is a genuine taken advantage of or taking desire on many of their parts to advantage of the system. move past not only sequester but are we improving our legal immigration system and are washington dysfunction funk. we creating a pathway for dysfunction. whether we can get it done or citizenship for the 11 not, we'll see. million or so who are undocumented in this country? and if they meet those i think the sequester is a good criteria but they're slightly different than the senate bill, then i think example. this recent faa issue is a good that we should be able to come up with an appropriate example. you will recall that even as compromise. if it doesn't meet those criteria then, i will not, recently as my campaign republicans were saying, you know, i will not support sequester is terrible, this is a such a bill. disaster, it's going to ruin our so we'll have to wait and see. military, it's going to be what it comes to mexico, i'm disastrous for the economy, very much looking forward to we've got to do something about it. then when it was determined that taking the trip down to doing something about it might mexico to see the new mean that we close some tax president. i had a chance it meet him loopholes for the wealthy and here. this will be the first, more the well connected, suddenly, well you know what we'll take the sequester. extensive consultations and and the notion was somehow that it will be an opportunity we had exaggerated the affects for his ministers, my
11:06 am
much the sequester. cabinet members, who are remember? the president is crying wolf, participating, to really hammer out some of these he's chicken little, the sequester, no problem. issues. a lot of focus will be and then in rapid succession economics. we spent a lot of time on suddenly white house tours, this is terrible. how can we let that happen? security issues between the united states and mexico that sometimes we forget meat inspectors, we've got to this is a massive trading fix that. and most recently what are we partner, responsible for going to do about potential huge amounts of commerce and delays at airports? huge numbers of jobs on both so, despite the fact that a lot sides of the border. we want to see how we can deepen that, how we can of members of congress were improve that and maintain suggesting that somehow the sequester was a victory for them that economic dialogue over a long period of time. and this wouldn't hurt the economy, what we now know is that doesn't me that we're not going to be talking what i warned earlier, what jay about security. i think that, in my first stood up here and warned conversation with the repeatedly is happening. president he indicated to me that he very much continues to be concerned about how we it's slowed our growth, it's resulted in people being thrown can work together to deal out of work, and it's hurting with transnational drug folks all across the country. cartels. we have made great strides and the fact that congress in the coordination and cooperation between our two governments over the past responded to the short-term several years but my
11:07 am
problem of flight delays by suspicion is things can be improved and some of the giving us the option of shifting issues he is talking about really have to do with money that is designed to repair refinements and improvements in terms of how mexican authorities work with each and improve airports over the other, how they coordinate long term, to fix the short-term problem, well that is not a more effectively and it has less to do with how they're solution. dealing with us per se. essentially what we've done is so, so, i'm not going to, we've said in order to avoid delays this summer we're going to insure delays for the next yet judge how this will two or three decades. >> why did you go along with alter the relationship between the united states and mexico until i have it? >> hold on a second. heard directly from them to see what exactly are they trying to accomplish. so, the alter alternative of but, overall, what i can say is that, my impression is course is either to go ahead and that the new president is serious about reform. impose a whole bunch of delays he already made some tough on passengers now, which also does not fix the problem, or the decisions. i think he is going to make third alternative is to actually more that will improve the fix the problem by coming up with a broader, larger deal. economy and security of but jonathan, you seem to mexican citizens and that suggest that somehow these folks will improve the bilateral relationship as well. i don't want to leave out over there have no we're also going to be talking to, during my visit responsibilities and that my job
11:08 am
is to somehow get them to to costa rica, presidents of behave. that's their job. central american countries, many of whom are struggling they are elected, members of congress are elected in order to with both economic issues and security issues but are do what is right for their important partners for us constituencies and for the american people. because i think, that the vision here is, that we want so, if in fact they are to make sure that our seriously concerned about hemisphere is more passenger convenience and effectively inat that greated to improve the safety, then they shouldn't just economy and security of all be thinking about tomorrow, or people that is good for the next week, or the week after united states. that will enhance our that, they should be thinking economy. about what is going to happen, that can improve our energy independence. there are a whole range of five years from now, ten years from now or 15 years from now. opportunities and that is the only way to do that is for going to be purpose of this them to even gaming with me trip and i'm sure that those of how will have a chance to oncominengage with me oncoming travel with me will have a chance to discuss this further. all right? thank you very much up with a broader deal. everybody. that's exactly what i'm trying thank you, guys. to do is continue to talk to them about are there ways for us jon: so after, oh, some four to fix this? frankly, i don't think that if i months, one more comment. were to veto, for example, in >> i had a chance to talk to him yesterday. seems like a terrific young faa bill that that somehow would man. lead to the broader fix. and, yeah i told him i it just means that there would couldn't be prouder. be pain now, which they would
11:09 am
you know, one of the, try to blame on me, as opposed extraordinary measures of to pain five years from now. progress that we've seen in this country has been the but either way the problem is not getting fixed. recognition that the lgbt the only way the problem does get fixed is if both parties sit community deserves full down and they say, how are we going to make sure that we are equality, not just partial reducing our deficit sensibly? equality. not just tolerance but a how do we make sure we are investing in things like rebuilding our airports and roads and bridges and investing recognition that they're in early childhood education, fully a part of the american family, and you know, give basic research, awful the things that will help us grow, and the importance of sports in our society, for, an that's what the american people want. one interesting str statistic individual who has excelled when it comes to airports. at the highest levels in one there was a recent survey of the top airports in the world, and of the major sports, go ahead and say this is who i am. i am proud of it. there was not a single u.s. i'm still a great competitor. airport that came in the top i'm still seven foot tall 25. not one. not one u.s. airport was and can bang with shaq and considered by the experts and can deliver a hard foul and, consumers who use these airports to be in the top 25 in the and, you know, for a, i
11:10 am
world. i think cincinnati airport came think a lot of young people in around 30th. out there who, you know, are, what does that say about our long-term competitiveness and you know gay or lesbian who future? and so when folks say, well, are struggling with these there was some money in the faa issues, to see a role model like that who is unafraid, i to deal with these furloughs, think it's a great thing and well, yeah, the money is this i think america should be proud that this is just one pool of funds that are supposed to try to upgrade our airports more step in this on going so we don't rank in the bottom recognition that we treat everybody fairly, and of inch dust tral hraoeuze everybody's part of a, part of a family and we judge countries when it comes to our people on the basis of their infrastructure. we are using our seed born short term. character and their the only reason we are doing performance and not their sexual orientation. this is because right now we so i'm very proud of him. have folks unwilling to make some simple changes to our tax all right? code, for example, to close jon: one last comment there loopholes that aren't adding to from the president regarding our competitiveness and aren't jason collins, the nba helping middle class families. basketball center who came out and admitted that he is that is a long way of answering gay. the first active pro athlete your question, but the point is in any major league sport to do so. that there are common-sense brought that presidential return to the podium. solutions to our problems right so it was a news conference
11:11 am
now. i cannot force republicans to that started with his reaction to what is going on embrace those common-sense in syria. questions about whether the solutions. i can urge them to, i can put red line that the president said set, has been crossed pressure on them. in the use of chemical i can, now, rally the american weapons there. the president said we don't people around those dash those know yet who used chemical weapons. we believe they were used. common-sense solutions, but we don't know who did it and ultimately they themselves are suggested at this point going to have to say, we want there is no action to be taken. he also touched on russian help in the boston marathon to do the right thing. bombings saying russian there are members certainly in the senate right now and i intelligence services have been helpful since then and suspect members in the house hop that he had spoken to that understand it deep down but russian president vladmir they are worried about their putin personally. also touched on relations with congress, the politics, it's tough, their base thinks that compromise with me guantanamo bay prison and is somehow a betrayal. relations with mexico. let's get reaction to all of they are worried about this from the former senior primaries, and i understand all adivsor and deputy chief of that. and we are going to tr try to staff to president george w. bush. karl rove is a fox news contributor. karl, what was the most interesting thing to you of what the president had to do everything we can for them to say this morning? >> well, there was, there were two bits of news. be able to do what is best for the country, but it's going to one that he created and one take some time. that will be created in the aftermath of this. bill plain. the president said he was
11:12 am
>> president as you're probably going to reexamine gitmo, aware there has been agreeing that in closing the prison there, said we had these hunger strike at guantanamo bay enemy combatants there and among prisoners there. he wanted to handle them what he called conventional fashion which he implied was trying them in u.s. courts but in reality that is [inaudible] unconventional. >> it is not a surprise to me we in previous wars taken that we have problems in enemy combatants, not seen guantanamo, which is why when i was campaigning in 2007, and troops picked up on battlefield in north africa and europe and sent them to 2008 and when i what's elected prison camps in arizona, in 2008 i said we need to close utah, texas until the end of guantanamo. i continue to believe that we've got to close guantanamo. the war. same thing with japanese troops during the war. >> when? he is making another run at >> i think it is critical for us to understand that guantanamo is closing gitmo. we'll see if he has a successful attempt this time not necessary to keep america around. he said for the 85 or 90% of safe. it is expensive. people who already have health insurance you already got all the benefits and it is inefficient. nothing is going to happen to you. it hurts us in terms of our everything is hunky-dory. the problem is, people who have insurance are finding international standing. that they are having much it lessens cooperation with our more rapidly increasing premiums. allies on counterterrorism if you've got a medicare
11:13 am
advantage, there are 13 efforts. it is a recruitment tool for million people with medicare advantage policy you're starting to lose benefits extremists. it needs to be closed. and may lose your coverage all together and we'll find now, congress determined that a lot more people being dumped by their companies because of high cost of they would not let us close it, insurance brought about by the affordable care act. and despite the fact that there the government increased are a number of the folks who number they estimated would lose employer provided are currently in guantanamo who coverage from three million at the time the bill was the courts have said could be passed in 2010 to the cbo returned to their country of saying seven million earlier this year and the center for origin, or potentially a third medicare and medicaid country, i'm going to go back at actuary saying it will be 14 this. i've asked my team to review million people. everything that is currently and lots of other private being done in guantanamo, estimates will be a lot everything that we can do higher. president seems unaware that there is huge problem coming administratively, and i'm going to reengage with congress to try for people who have to make the case that this is employer-provided coverage as a result of the affordable care act. jon: yeah on, on both those not something that is in the best interests of the american issues, the affordable care people. and it's not sustainable. act and guantanamo bay, the i mean the notion that we're president seemed to gloss going to continue to keep over a over thorny questions yet to come. hundred individuals in a no in guantanamo bay for instance, you see some man's land, incin perfect people detained on the battlefield, you try to, you know, put them on trial in a
11:14 am
federal house for instance, you've got all kinds of future even at a time when we are winding down the war in thorny issues about cia iraq, we are winding down the agent who may have, led to some of the information, may war in afghanistan. we've had success in defeating have provided some of the the al-qaida core. information. >> were they mirandized? we've kept the pressure up on jon: sure. >> were they mirandized? all these transnational remember if you try them on terrorist networks. u.s. soil and they're found when we've transferred detention not guilty or you have a hung jury, they can stay authorities in afghanistan, the idea that we would still here in the united states. we had this experiment begun under the bush maintain forever a group of administration where we tried to identify people that we thought were no individuals who have not been longer a risk and we sent them back to the country for tried, that is contrary to who we are, it is contrary to our which they came and found within a brief period of interests, and it needs to time, six months or a year, as many as a third of them stop. were back as al qaeda attacking now, it's a hard case to make, the u.s. and our allies. so there's no good answer to because i think for a lot of americans the notion is out of this but it was interesting the president said in a very sight, out of mind. strong fashion he will ream and it's easy to demagog the kpin it and try to -- issue. that's what happened the first time this came up. reexamine it and try to find i'm going to go back at it. a way. because i think it's important. jon: he suggested that congress is the obstacle to closing guantanamo bay. >> meanwhile you continue to he is the commander-in-chief, force feed these folks. >> i don't want these he could tell the military,
11:15 am
individuals to die. could he not, no more obviously the pentagon is trying prisons at that facility in cuba? to manage the situation as best >> yeah. the congress prohibited from as they can, but i think all of transferring those people to the united states and bringing them to the continental u.s. but look, us should reflect on why exactly this was news. what i thought was are we doing this? interesting was this news conference opened with two questions. first by ed henry on syria why are we doing this? i mean we've got a whole bunch and then by jessica yellin of individuals who have been on benghazi and the tried who are currently in potential boston bombing intelligence failures and the president had a rambling maximum security prison -gs answer to both and didn't around the country. answer either question. nothing has happened to them. on syria he acknowledged there might be a red line justice has been served. but gave no indication what it's been done in a way that is consistent with our would happen if a red line were crossed. constitution, consistent with in fact he said, if it were crossed we would have to due process, consistent with look at options that we rule of law, consistent with might otherwise not look at. your traditions. that is not a very strong the individual who attempted to message to the syrians. rambling answer. on benghazi, you're right he bomb times square, in prison, got into talking about the russian intelligence service serving a life sentence. but he never answered jessica's question which was, the individual who tried to bomb were there intelligence a plane in detroit, in prison, failures in benghazi and in the boston bombing where we serving a life sentence. failed to connect the dots? and he just dodged that question all together. a somali who was part of moham jon: all right. we will continue to take it apart throughout the day here on fox news. examine what the president
11:16 am
had to say and what he didn't say. karl rove. karl, thank you. >> thank you, jon. jenna: a bunch of of big stories to get to today for al-shaad, in prison. we can handle this. you. we're also going to take a i understand in the immediate look at this health story. aftermath of 9/11 with the some new concerns doctors are misdiagnosing adhd. traumas that had taken place why for a lot of americans the notion was somehow that we had symptoms like forgetfulness to create a special facility and concentrating may be like guantanamo, and we couldn't something else entirely and handle this in a normal something you can fix yourself coming up here on conventional fashion, i "happening now." understand that reaction, but we [ male announcer ] running out of steam? now over a deck ailed out, we should be wiser. we should have more experience in how we prosecuto prosecute prosecute terrorists. ♪ and this is a lingering problem now you can give yourself a kick in the rear! v8 v-fusion plus energy. that is not going to get better, natural energy from green tea plus fruits and veggies. it's going to get worse. it's going to fester. need a little kick? ooh! and so i'm going to as i said could've had a v8. in the juice aisle. before, we'll examine every option that we have administratively to try to deal
11:17 am
with this issue, but ultimately we'll also need help from are congress and i'm going to ask some folks over there who care about fighting terrorism, but also care about who we are as a people to step up and help me on it. chuck tyler. >> mr. president, thank you. who ma max baucus indicated your potential healthcare law is a train wreck. and others are nervous about the impact and implementation, and some are worried about the impact it will have on their political campaigns in 2013. why did senator balk cuss, someone who helped write your bill believe that this will be a train wreck and why do you need a little kick? ooh! believe he's wrong? >> i think that any time you're great first gig! let's go! implementing something big,
11:18 am
there is going to be people who party! are nervous and anxious about is awwwww... it going to get done, until it's arigato! actually done. we are outta here! but let's just step back for a second and make sure the american people understand what it is that we're doing. the affordable care act, obama party...... care, has now been with us for finding you the perfect place, every step of the way. three years, it's gone through hotels.com supreme court tests, it's gone through efforts to repeal. a huge chunk of it has already been implemented. and for the 85 to 90% of americans who already have health insurance, they are already experiencing most of the benefits of the affordable care act even if they don't know it. their insurance is more secure. insurance companies can't drop them for bad reasons. their kids are able to stay on their health insurance until they are 26 years old.
11:19 am
they are getting free preventative care. there are a whole host of benefits that for the average american out there, for the 85 to 90% of americans who already have health insurance, this thing has already happened. and their only impact is that their insurance is stronger, better, more secure than it was before. full stop. that's it. they don't have to worry about anything else. the implementation issues come in for those who don't have health insurance, maybe because they have a preexisting condition and the only way they can get health insurance is to go out on the individual market and they are paying 50% or 100% more than those of us who are lucky enough to have group plans. people who are too poor to get health insurance and their employers don't offer it. maybe they work for a small business and the small business can't afford right now to jenna: well the debate over provide health insurance. what to do next in syria is
11:20 am
really front and center so, all the implementation today with the president issues that are coming up are addressing the ish -- issue implementation issues related to at a news conference moments that small group of people, 10 ago. >> we're already deeply invested in trying to find a to 15% of americans, now it's solution here. what is true though is that still 30 million americans, but if i can establish in a way a relatively narrow group who don't have health insurance right now, or are on the that, not only the united individual market and are paying states but also the international community feel confident is the use of exorbitant amounts for coverage that isn't that great. chemical weapons by the and what we're doing is we're setting up a pool so that they assad regime, that then that can all pool together and get a is a game-changer because better deal from insurance what that portends is companies. and those who can't afford it, potentially even more we are going to provide them devastating attacks on with some subsidies. civilians. jenna: america's leadership that's it. i mean that is what is left to role in syria and elsewhere remains the subject of much implement. because the other stuff has been debate. while some advocate a strong implemented and it's working america with heavy involvement overseas, a big fine. the challenge is that, you know, footprint, if you will, setting up a market-based others want the opposite and an america knows its limits. system, basically an online our next guest writes in op marketplace where you can go on set piece, although there may be short-term political and sign up and figure out what benefits in calling for a diminished u.s. role in the
11:21 am
kind of insurance you can world, history shows that afford, and figuring out how to retreat comes with get the subsidies that is a big, substantial long-term costs for our country. the author of that editorial, complicated piece of business. familiar face, to us all, and when you're doing it joe lieberman, who is enjoying nationwide, relatively fast, and you've got half of congress who time with the grandkids in your retirement. how has it been so far? >> it has been great so far is determined to try to block and i'm staying involved but not try to get as involved implementation, and not as when i was in the senate. adequately funding jenna: certainly gave us implementation, and then you've something to talk about, got a number of members of -- or your op set -- op he had piece in the governors, republican governors, "washington post", talking about remaining engaged and who know that it's bad politics america with a long for them to try to implement leadership. what does that mean today, this effectively, and some even for america in 2013. who have decided to implement >> america is beacon for the world and countries all over and then their depend on us because we're republican-controlled state the leader when it comes to legislators say don't implement freedom and democracy. and won't pass enable we should never legislation. underestimate how important when you have that type of that is to people places situation that makes it harder. but having said all that, we've like syria fighting for their freed many do. the second is, we're the got a great team in place. strongest nation in the word and over time we have we are pushing very hard to make benefited in our economy and sure that we're hitting all the our jobs and our freedom
11:22 am
from the fact that we have been the leader of the deadlines and the benchmarks. world. we can't do it all. i'll give you an example, a we shouldn't do it all. we've got allies everywhere recent example. who can help us but if we we've put together initially an begin to pull back, others who are hostile to us will get involved and ultimately, application form for signing up as i say in that op-ed with for participation in the senator jon kyl, we'll be exchanges that was initially dragged back in at much about 21 pages long. and immediately everybody sat higher costs in lives and around the table and said, well this is too long, especially you money. that has been the story over the last 100 years or more. know in this age of the every time we pulled back before the second world war, internet, people aren't going to have the patience to sit there after the end of the cold war, we have been forced for hours on end. let's streamline this thing. back in in a crisis and it we cut what ways a 21-page form has ended up costing a lot more than if we stayed now down to a form that is about involved as leaders. three pages nor an individual >> do you think that is happening in syria in light what also happened over the for an individual. a little more than that for a last decade being in a war in iraq and afghanistan? family. well above the industry are we pulling back too much? average. those kind of refinements we what do you think about our leadership there? will continue to work on. >> i'm worried, because the kind of desire to pull back despite all the hugh and cry and right now felt by a lot of politicians and people in america is understandable. sky is falling predictions about we've gone through a tough
11:23 am
economic time. this stuff, if you've already people are war weary about got health insurance, then that iraq and afghanistan but, this is a dangerous world to part of obama care that affects us and the war against you is pretty much already in place. and that is about 85% of the radical islam is not over and in syria, particularly country. unfortunately we've been essentially standing back what is left to be implemented and watching a government is those provisions to help the turn on its own people. 10 to 15% of the person public 70 to 80,000 dead with that is unluckily enough that they don't have health tremendous threats to the insurance, and by the way, you neighboring countries, know, some of you who have allies particularly like health insurance right now at jordan which is in danger some point you may lose your the so i must say that i was health insurance. if you've got a preexisting troubled by the president's statements today on syria condition this structure will make sure that you are not left for this reason. i understand he wants to make sure before we take vulnerable. definitive action about syria's use of chemical it's still a big undertaking. weapons, that in fact they did use them but the what we are doing is making sure that every single day we are president has been very constantly trying to hit our clear about this. if the syrians use chemical weapons that's a red line that he wouldn't allow them to cross and we would take action to punish them for it. last week secretary of defense hagel said the
11:24 am
syrians have used chemical weapons. senator feinstein, chair of the senate intelligence committee says our intelligence community tells us with moderate to high confidence that the syrians used chemical weapons. so i --. jenna: so what is the risk of just saying we want assad to go and we're going to investigate this further? what do you think the risk to us as a nation that statement by the president? >> i think a couple of things. the first is, when the president essentially as if he was a police officer points a gun at a suspected criminal and says, if you do this, i'm going to shoot and the criminal does that and we don't shoot, that means that every other criminal in the world begins to think they can take advantage of us and our credibility goes down, not only in the middle east but throughout the world. the second is, if you follow what's happened in syria, at every stage after the syrian people began peacefully to rise up against a dictate tore assad, he started with
11:25 am
light weapons against them. when the world didn't react, he went to heavy weapons, then to air power and now to chemical weapons. if we don't react unfortunately i predict that he will use chemical weapons in a much more devastating way. so, we can't let this, this red line become fuzzy in a lot of international lawyering and the united nations. america's credibility is on the line. the president said exactly the right thing about the use of chemical weapons being a red line and if we don't take action to hold assad accountable for that, shame on us but not only shame on us, we're going to pay a heavy price for it in syria, in the middle east and more broadly in the world because of the loss of credibility for america. jenna: senator lieberman, we got caught a little short because of president's news conference. a lot to talk about. >> i understand. jenna: we hope to have you

from chronic sleep deprivation and that may be the case in children. we have the author of that op-ed. clinical professor of psychiatry at nyu school of medicine. doc, how did you come to this? tell us about the parents. >> what i wrote about and personnal experience in my practice basically after treating adhd adults for six years now. but, to rewind a little bit and give you a little personal history i myself had symptoms of sleepiness, fatigue, attention problems and was diagnosed ultimately with a sleep disorder. jenna: took many years to do that? wasn't something, i'm not getting a good night's sleep but having -- >> there was a big long process wondering if it is worth clinical attention. many doctors didn't know how to deal with it. and that's what i find when i see patients who come in and i have had patient who is have sleep testing done and sometimes it takes the right kind of testing. the right kind of interpretation of that testing. but what i'm seeing is, about anywhere from 30 to
11:31 am
50% of my patients who have, who come to me for attention deficit disorder type issues, have clinically significant symptoms of sleep dysfunction. and --. jenna: how do you determine, what adhd symptoms and what could be sleep deprivation? >> right. so, i think the jury is still out on whether some forms of adhd create sort of a restlessness. people don't sleep well. and then, the opposite can also be true when people don't have a, true sleep disorder, they're not going to be able to focus. so it gets all mixed up. jenna: maybe a good doctor to talk to you about this. what are the components? >> i wouldn't argue with that. jenna: one of the things you mentioned in the op-ed got our attention, one in 10 children are diagnosed with adhd likely they're under some medication. make like adults they're not getting a food night's sleep might be the case with some of these children. what do you think about that? >> i have children about to enter school years and i'm
11:32 am
concerned because we're programing our kids to function like adults. early morningings and kids, i think, are not getting sleep and they have a lot of extracurricular activities and are our current lifestyle for kids doesn't match what their sleep needs are. that is one issue. another is, people think of sleep appeyaw, for example, being an adult male problem but very common to have sleep disordered breathing in kids. if you look up studies when they take kids diagnosed with adhd and put them through sleep testing 30%, 50% have disordered breathing through sleep. jenna: we enother viewers to check out your piece because it may be something parents and adults should consider. doctor, appreciate you had being on set. jon? jon: there are manhunt for the killer of a 8-year-old california girl found stabbed to death in her own home. the latest on this horrible crime ahead.

11:42 am
described as 6 feet tall, white or latino, possibly with long gray hair and no specifics about his age. according to investigators a neighbor saw a man fitting a similar description running from the home, and now we're hearing that a third witness may have seen the suspect a few days earlier, and they are giving a slightly different description. >> there are some consistencies which are those consistencies that we've released to you but there are also inconsistencies on the three different descriptions, that's why we've chosen to not release a sketch or to go into the variances at this time. >> more than a hundred officers are patrolling the area, beefing up security at layla's elementary school where a popular memorial to the popular third grader is growing, and where the students are being offered counseling support. investigators are also analyzing fingerprints and dna evidence found at the home. they hope to have those test results back in a week or so. they are also on tacting all the registered sex offenders and

11:44 am
>> lindsey graham a senior member of the armed services committee has said that benghazi and boston are both examples of the u.s. going backwards on national security. is he right? and did our intelligence miss something? >> no, mr. graham is not right on this issue, although i'm sure it generated some headlines. i think that what we saw in boston was state, local, federal officials, every agency, rallying around a city that had been attacked, identifying the perpetrators just hours after the scene had been examined. we now have one individual deceased, one in custody. charges have been brought. jon: well joining us by phone now south carolina republican senator lindsey graham. you heard the president there at
11:45 am
his news conference in essence say, senator, that you are wrong. what's your response? >> with all due respect to the president we've lost eight americans to radical islamists in the last seven months, four dead in benghazi, four dead in boston, and when you look at each case the system failed. in boston they did a great job catching the guy with the help of citizens, but you had the fbi, and the cia warned by russian intelligence in 2011, months before it. the guy went back to russia, went back to dagestan, picked up by dhs but they never told the fbi or the cia so they could monitor what he was doing. we didn't even know when he went to russia. when he came back, jon he went on various youtube channels looking at radical islamist websites talking about killing americans and we missed that. if a guy is in the system and you can't find the fact -- and you don't know that he went back to russia, he's supposed to be
11:46 am
here on a saoeu asylum. and he comes back and says he embraces killing americans. that is not an efficient system. we are going backwards. jon: the same kind of problem that led to the 9/11 attacks. >> well, 9/11 you had agencies sending information, not sharing with each other. the fbi did a good job with interviewing him in 2011 but they didn't follow-up. the cia was contacted in november, in 2011, they put him in the system, he gets a ping when he goes back to russia on january 12th and the fbi and cia don't get notified, that is 9/11 all over again. when he comes back home it's not like he's hiding his radical thoughts. this is a guy that has been a radical islamist, he's on the internet inside the country interacting with radical islamist videos talking about jihad. how do you miss that? that is a pre 9/11 mentality taking over.
11:47 am
jon: he was also asked about -- the president was about the benghazi attacks, and information that is coming forward or may be not yet coming forward from some of those who have information and want to talk about it, but also want protection. here is what oured henry asked him and the president's response. >> i'm not nam with thi familiar with this notion that anybody has been blocked from testifying. what i'll do is i will find out what exactly you're referring to. what i've been very clear about from the start is that our job with respect to benghazi has been to find out exactly what happened, to make sure that u.s. embassies, not just in the middle east, but around the world are safe and secure, and to bring those who carried it out to justice. but i'll find out what exactly you're referring to. jon: all right. in your view has the president done all he can to find out what happened in benghazi?
11:48 am
>> not even close. he hasn't caught one person who was involved in the attack. fox news and a few other news outlets have pursued this. now you have people coming forward saying, i was there that day, or i was aware of what was going on during the attack, and i feel afraid to talk. if benghazi is not a system failure what is? you had the u.s. ambassador in august sending a cable to washington saying we can't effect the consulate against a coordinated attack. al-qaida flags are flying all over benghazi. most of the requests for security was denied. the consulate had been bombed in a april, the british ambassador attacked in june. we leave our consulate open, unreinforced during the attack for seven and a half hours. no one came to the aid. after the attack susan rice and the president themselves said the the attack was inspired by a video created in america that
11:49 am
led to a riot. this was a coordinated terrorist attack. benghazi is a system failure. this administration hasn't found anybody involved in the attack. and i think they haven't looked very hard at all. they've been more trying to cover up what happened than they have trying to get to the bottom of it. jon: again the news conference went on for 45 minutes. the president had quite a bit to say. we'll be examining the answers and the questions throughout the day here on fox. senator lindsey graham republican from south carolina, thank you for joining us today. jenna: another big question asked at the president's news conference addressed concerns about the implementation of the new healthcare law. the president says it's on track tra track, despite criticism that it may be too come phra the indicated. what the white house is doing today to address just that. wendell goler is live with us next. why did this oscar winning hollywood star just check herself back into a clinic? fox has the 411 next.

jenna: the president a short while ago discussing his healthcare law at the white house news conference admitting that implementation is complex. >> the challenge is that, you know, setting up a market-based system, basically an online marketplace, where you can go on and sign up and figure out what kind of insurance you can afford, and figuring out how to get the subsidies, that is still a big, complicated piece of business. jenna: when part of of the process appears to be simpler after today after criticism that it was way to come blah indicated. we are talking about it for sure, wendell goler is live from the white house. we have been talking a lot about the health insurance exchanges. have they changed? are they going to be more simple now? explain to our viewers how it
11:54 am
went to complicated to simple without actually seeing an exchange yet. >> joining them jenna should be a little easier. the white house announcing today that the form for individuals and families has been shortened considerably. it was initially 21 pages long, very complicated. mr. obama said that didn't go over well with the folks having a tough time selling obamacare in the first place. >> immediately everybody sat around the table and said, well this is too long, especially in this age of the internet, people aren't going to have the patience to sit there for hours on end. let's streamline this thing. we've cut what was a 21-page form now down to a form that is about three pages for an individual, a little more than that for a family, well below the industry average. >> reporter: the form requires tax records and withholding statements because income determines how much the government will subsidize of being a member of the exchange. jenna: so we'll count that as
11:55 am
something a little more simple. what about the other objections, though? there's been a lot of criticisms that have come out over the last several days, especially regarding the healthcare law. we'll see it actually implemented by the end of the year. >> reporter: small business costs said to be holding back hours for some employees, or calling the owners of the small businesses know the to hire more workers. the national republican senatorial committee and max baucus said it will be a train wreck to implement. the president says any big legislation is. elizabeth colbert bush says obama care is extremely problematic, expensive. a $500 billion higher cost than originally anticipated. it's cutting into medicare benefits and having companies layoff employees because they are worried about the cost of it. the president confirms the governors and state legislatures that object to obama care are going to make it harder to implement though he said 85% of
11:56 am
the law had already been implemented. jenna: interesting, wendell thank you. jon: the netherlands getting its first king in more than a century. will u.n. alexander and the thron her, largely devoid of any power. today is queens day in the netherlands, a time for celebration and lots of orange, which of course is the color of the house of orange skwhra. jenna: of course. jon: makes sense. he was crowned king after his mother queen beatrice retired from her 33-year reign. she now takes the title of princess. jenna: that is not bad, right? take the title aspirin ses, wh aspirias princess. jenna: joe trippi will weigh in with us just ahead. plus the new legal strategy to save the boston bombing suspect from death row.

snoop president obama is under attack right now from some of his closest allies for failing to keep his promises they say to reform the campaign finance system in this country. a coalition of reform groups sending the president a letter criticizing his failures to provide meaningful leadership on reform efforts, and to limit the influence of lobbyists. even worse in their view was his recent decision to turn his campaign into an advocacy operation with unlimited funding to finance the president's political agenda. they point to his failure to keep a campaign promise to push for a constitutional amendment overturning citizens united. a court case that opened the
12:01 pm
flood case to unlimited spending on political speech. the president attacked that supreme court decision during his state of the union address in 2010 with the view bream court justices you might remember sitting right in front of him. >> with all due deference to separation of powers last week the supreme court reversed a century of law that i believe will open the floodgates for special interests, including foreign corporations, to spend without limit in our elections. [applause] >> i don't think american elections should be than bank rolled by america's most powerful interests. or worse by foreign entities. they should be decided by the american people. and i'd urge democrats and republicans to pass a bill that helps correct some of these problems. jon: well the members of the supreme court didn't necessarily agree with the president's characterizations this. you might call justice samuel alito shaking his head and
12:02 pm
mouthing the words, know the true about what the president had to say. joe trippi is a former howard dean presidential campaign manager and a fox news contributor. so when it comes to election or campaign finance reform, joe, is this a case where the president is saying, you know, do what i say, and not what i do? >> jon, i just think campaign finance reform is dead. i mean it's just -- and i've got to take some responsibility for it, in 2004 the dean campaign was the first campaign on the democratic side to opt out of the public financing system. it's gone downhill ever since, and i think the president was right, i think, in august of this year on the internet, he said that he had thought now that the only way to get real campaign finance reform was to start a movement for a constitutional amendment. i think he's right about that.
12:03 pm
but i agree with a lot of the critics, i -- i wish he hadn't created the superpac, i wish he hadn't gone -- decided to fight the republicans. both parties tended to go in the same direction now in terms of the more money we can raise the better, and it's an all out war where the biggest contributors have -- have a lot more influence than they did in past years. jon: some of this -- some of the things that face him, some of. choices that face him certainly are difficult, but there are things that he could be doing that he isn't doing. just today in fact, there are five members sitting on the federal election commission whose terms expire, he has made no moves to appoint replacements. there is a 6th seat on the commission that is empty, and the president has done nothing. >> well, he attempted to appoint one member and that was held up
12:04 pm
in the senate over -- it was john sullivan, over his support for labor unions. look, getting into a fight with the senate over -- and republicans in the senate over fec commissioners, given all the other things we have to do, budget, syria, all the other issues out there, i don't think he's going to use his energy on -- by the way on a commission that most operatives in both parties don't think has the teeth or the will to change any of this. jon: part of this gets, i guess, captured, or noted by chris stirewalt in his online column today talking about how many of the president's most adder tkapbt supporters are extremely disappointed with the way his second term is going. he writes liberal democrats are
12:05 pm
feeling crabby about obama is eupl these days. an ever escalating drone program. funding implementation of the new health law, defeats on fiscal policy and the president's seeming acceptance of business as usual in washington are all causing alarm on the left. what is the use of having a crusading, liberal president if he won't crusade or can't win when he does? what do you think about that, joe? >> i think the reality is there is a republican house, and so, yeah, as a liberal i want an assault weapons ban. the fact of the matter is he couldn't -- we couldn't even get background checks through the house of representatives right now, so it doesn't do him any good to crusade on things that aren't going to happen, and that the house -- you know, either it's going to get filibustered in the senate or not passed by the house. and yes, liberals are upset about not getting their way,
12:06 pm
but, you know, that's why i think you're going to see 2014 will be a real -- another knock down, drag out election year in which both sides who have not got were wha gotten what they wanted will go at it again. jon: and with unlimited campaign donations. >> absolutely. the cycle continues. jon: joe trippi. thank you. jenna: dozens of federal programs slashed when across the board spending cuts took effect this year, including air shows like this one with the blue angels. hear how some americans are pushing back to keep the programs that matter most. we are just now hearing dramatic 911 calls from the manhunt for a fugitive excop. how it all went down, next. >> all right, steve we're going to go forward with the plan, with the burner. >> control 61 it sounded like

12:12 pm
one shot fired from inside the residence. >> copy. one shot fired from inside the residence. >> 61 lincoln. we still have ammo going off in the fire. >> 61 lincoln, copy. >> i'm not ready for fire for those reasons and we still have ammo popping here. >> [inaudible] >> fully engulfed. >> copy, three four fully engulfed. >> fully engulfed as we see in the pictures. police say dorner killed himself in the cabin before it burned to the ground. meantime a lawsuit has been filed by a many ranger who says he deserves the one million dollar reward offered for information to leading to dorner's capture. he said it was his call to the police after dorner stole his truck that led authorities to that cabin where dorner was hiding out. back to you. jon: that argument goes on. rick folbaum, thanks. jenna: new information on just who will be representing the surviving boston marathon terror suspect what is likely to be
12:13 pm
a capital trial. judy clarke will advocate for the suspect not the man on your screen, his brother. dzhokhar tsarnaev. she is considered a death penalty specialist and represented some very high-profile clients including ted kaczynski, known as "the unabomber", susan smith, the woman who drowned her two small children by driving her car into a lake, eric rudolph, the olympic park bomber, and most recently, the a name you know, jared loughner, who shot 19 people and including congresswoman gabby giffords. six of those people died. he made sure they did not get death row. lease we'll and doug burns, a former criminal prosecutor and criminal defense attorney. everyone wants to see justice in this case. there is lot of emotion that comes up with the names we read, lis. the fact they did not get the death penalty. what do you think her presence means for this case? >> i think it means she will
12:14 pm
be very much of a pitbull. that is her reputation. she works 80 hours a week. she goes for the technicalities in the law. so weapons of mass destruction, she will look for something in that charge. will look for any kind of technicality she can find. she will be trying to do anything she can do from a legal standpoint to take the death penalty off the table. will she be successful? i hope not, frankly. >> well, apparently what she does, which is her job is to take the most heinous, type of situation and somehow miraculously i'll put it, humanize the person. no, in the sense that what they did doesn't necessarily represt the sum universe of their life. now the other point that's interesting is that, you know, under federal law we have what is called the criminal justice act and the court authorized bringing that person in from across the --. jenna: best-case scenario though for the outcome, meaning that we have, two really lawyered up sides that are experts. >> whatever happens, whether
12:15 pm
there is plea deal on the table or whether it goes to trial, what happens on appeal if it goes to a trial is generally ineffective assistance of counsel. >> yes. >> this woman is definitely up to this case. they're not going to be able to mount that case. jenna: pointed out something really significant about her relationships with her clients. >> sure. jenna: said she developed these really intense deep relationships with clients, some of which are mentally ill. she has that ability. >> yes. jenna: in one of her plea agreements she got for eric drew dolph the man who set off the bomb at the olympics it was her relationship and her plea agreement led the justice department to find huge explosives he had hidden and not told anybody. if she wasn't that person's lawyer and -- >> could be mitigating circumstance. jenna: could she help us. >> that is great point. >> if she can bring something to the table, other than just svengali. if she can bring something more than just that but also, make that she has other
12:16 pm
information. >> jenna is making counterintuitive point. i'm glad you make that. a lot of former fbi agent came in on fox and said, they're right. everybody is pontificating oh, miranda and a lawyer. a lot of times presence of a lawyer can help law enforcement do even better. that was your point. so a lot of times if the person is sitting there alone, one former fbi agent said, and i know your dad was an agent, they said the guy might be confused doesn't know what is going on. where the lawyer says -- that is in your interest, particularly the by the way in a case that is a slam dunk. >> take it off the table. jenna: best possible outcome, maybe. it is counseler intuitive when you look at list much people she represents. quickly, dna on one. bombs. we don't know who it belongs to. frankly we don't know what that means. where does that come in? >> you have to be careful, apparently kitchen pot may have been used. so it might have been the wife cooking, you don't know. that is numb per one. >> on the other hand that is
12:17 pm
something more to go and talk to her about, right? yes. >> exactly. you have the dna and i'm there, fbi, lady we've got your dna on the pressure cooker. jenna: what do you think about the actions so far of investigators with the widow of the older brother? seems like they come and go. they have been in and out of her parents house. it is sort of, someone that is not part of the legal world you wonder, why don't they bring her in and question her for a few days? >> two schools of thought. you have two schools of thought. there is no way they could have done this alone. and there is the other school of thought they could have done it alone and depends where you stand on that. >> i don't know. older was talking to girlfriends about jihad and mama on the phone. you don't think he was talking to his wife if he was talking to his mom and ex-girlfriend? >> i tend to think the concept they may not have been able to perpetrate this thing alone is very viable. >> you know criminals like to boast, even before they do, they like to talk about what they're going to do, we're so macho. we'll be doing this.
12:18 pm
criminals. jenna: doug never calls the ex. >> not about crime. >> we try to keep him innocent. jenna: lis and doug, always pleasure have you two together. jon? jon: the sequester hasn't just affected the faa and airport lines. it canceled events and delayed park openingsings and promises to take a big bite out of some government programs. but americans have rallied coming up with ingenius solutions to the sequester cuts. dan springer haves some examples live for us next. plus a new trend online. what inmates have to say about life behind bars as they post reviews of their prisons. man: how did i get here? dumb luck? or good decisions? ones i've made. ones we've all made. about marriage. children. money. about tomorrow.

>> despite the fact that a lot of members of congress were suggesting that somehow the sequester was a victory for them and this wouldn't hurt the economy what we now know is that what i warned earlier, what jay stood up here and warned repeatedly is happening. it slowed our growth. it is resulting in people being thrown out of work. and it is hurting folks all across the country. jon: well president obama there at his news conference just this morning, acknowledging the pain of across the board sequester spending cuts but many americans are doing what americans do best, rolling up their sleeves, stepping in to help restore programs
12:23 pm
that have been gutted. dan springer has some examples live from seattle. dan? >> reporter: yeah, that's right, jon. it has been really refreshing to see some folks are simply refusing to the take the sequester cuts lying down and they are truly providing government by the people. when the park service said it would have to delay the opening of yellowstone national park by at least a couple weeks because they couldn't afford to plow the snow blocking four gates, residents of cody and jackson hole, wyoming, raised $150,000 to get the job done. a lot of the money was donated by businesses that stood to lose if the park didn't open as planned on may 1st. the yellowstone draws about 20 million visitors each may. >> we worked on a 20-week tourism season. if the first two weeks will be taken out because the park is not open, that's a big deal. secondly, and most importantly, that is the launch for our tourism season. so, it sets the trend for everything else. >> reporter: also on the

sequester chopping block the pop a blue angels, the navy canceled all 35 summer appearances this year, saving taxpayers about $20 million. the air force also grounded the thunder birds. both have been fixtures at seattle's annual sea fair event. combined they cost the event about $12,000 a year to bring in. with neither an option, organizers got creative and found a replacement, the patriots jet team out of california. they cost $80,000. in addition, the navy pulled a warship out of the fleet week, so organizers book ad canadian naval ship to fill in. >> we have had to look outside the box and find new ways we can fill the gaps of where our government is not able to provide those services. >> reporter: of course there are limitations to what we can do to backfill $85 billion in cuts but that is not stopping people from trying. jon? jon: dan springer in seattle, dan, thank you. jenna: well you heard of people writing reviews for movies and restaurants.
12:25 pm
you might do it yourself. do you ever write reviews, jon? jon: only in my ahead. jenna: i really think i'm going to write a review and never do, right? apparently there is new trend online. it is not about restaurants or movies. it is about reviewing prisons. rick folbaum is live in the new york city newsroom, not from personal experience. >> reporter: not from personal experience. actually on part of the some of the reviewers, yes. yelp is a website that allows anybody to write a review any place with standard address. you mentioned restaurants, hotels. just in case you were shopping for a nice place, to spend maximum of next five to 10 years you can now write a review of a prison online and there are about 35 reviews for san quentin state prison in california, yelp's four-star rating system could help you make a important decision. giving the place one star, not recommended. scott, a little more generous, giving it two stars. he wrote this is not a place you want to end up.
12:26 pm
scott claims to spent four days when he was teenager, part of california's scared straight program. not all big, bad and scary like the movies make it he wrote but cold, damp miserable with really bad food. yes you always want to make sure the food is good, coincidentally what led dylan's three-star review who wrote, he heard the prison kitchen uses local farms and offers a seasonally changing menu which of course is write-up that a lot of new york city restaurants would be thrilled to get. for its part the l.a. county sheriff's department says monitors reviews. investigates when allegations of abuse are posted to the site but the department spokesman reminds people jail jail is not a restaurant. it is a place to serve time for committing a crime just in case anybody was confused about that. back to you. jenna: crystal clear. rick, thank you. interesting story. jon: the desperate search for a missing mom who vanished while finishing her late shift at a gas station. surveillance video that may
