the air. it is. lulu will will will will will will the art scene. it's a one year anniversary of president obama israel action is marked with political scandals and son success. so how was his second term stack up so far we'll break it down. and you don't know who can smile from soldiers in long lines to mcdonald's for a few apply for detainee this top of the men and women who work there it's a different story rc has gained exclusive access to the facility also knew a sign you've never seen before and in new mexico on

and claims he was subjected to what our work for x rays searches and do the color not to be by police to find frogs always want any fuss because the man's attorney later in the shop. one thing on number six on cam and washington dc i am not president you are watching rte. well today is the one year anniversary of the day that americans went to the polls and stylistic and president obama a second term to follow through on his vision for the country. alot has happened in a three hundred sixty five days since the president was re elected the irs and ozzy and nsa scandals have a rough day deportations of minors and non criminals have gone down the economy is recovering game rights are slowly but surely becoming american rights and much more

the corresponding was mom takes a look at some of the successes and failures of president obama as a second term. president obama has won re election of them was one year ago. president obama re elected despite high in employment and a weak economy . his campaign him what he did manage to achieve with the lot. a lot. obama related his ability to pass historic health care reform was known as obamacare supporters on as a promise fulfilled. if you like your plan you can keep your point. if you like your doctor can kick it up but here we are one year later president obama is approval rating is falling. according to the most recent gallup poll his approval rating is at thirty nine percent that's the lowest band since two thousand and the love that. it's been a rocky year the launch of the health care reform website has been plagued with collegians. it's

opened up a fire storm of controversy over the loss implementation and whether or not it will really improve healthcare for most americans we are doing everything. we can possibly do. to get the websites working better faster so the debate over health care is almost as divisive as the climate in congress a far cry from this outline. president obama for treating his reelection acceptance speech. in the coming weeks and months i am looking forward to reaching out and working with leaders of global markets to meet the challenge this week and always so altogether the working together has proven difficult sometimes impossible. this congress is criticized as one of the most unproductive in the nation's history. the inability to agree on almost anything with lawmakers failing to compromise on a spending bill led to the historic government shut down for three weeks the fact that

the state and today when it comes to transparency unprecedented questions over governments by. they come after leaked information from former nsa contractor and would snow again reveals the mass government surveillance program the revelations that the administration under the critical i am americans and political leaders abroad all signs that a year later much more needs to be done over the next three years in a different expectation set on this day the way. to be put down. in washington as well. our team. joining me now to talk more in depth about what president obama the accomplishments and failures happen during the past year the worst of the mountain breaking this eighteen joins me now because andy martin and producer man well ron paul out they did as much for joining me in korean so what's the your overall opinion of how he did last

year due to the green and my napping. and from the stand for and and and and it's a for effort. before the meeting notes and e for effort the idea by the mission. note the eu presidency would actually have given a higher rating scale. i've been present in the overall they're just managers and operators in the empire skincare really given much credit for. for what they do i blog is basically managing the system i mean i have been present at the dawn of the no overtures for good. like nixon craig epa now. carter did some good things though. historical context or to plan some things that stand out but the alert i decided to give the president has is has its challenges that the kids it's difficult to kind of compare one verses given tried to get the grade one that would have to accuse a happy ending you can look in any presidency and see the progress of policies that they had things that they did right nixon for example you mention the epa and several other progressive policies but at the end of the day was that this mighty hungry

maniac that you know was paranoid about everything and sometimes the races. so i need to get what was great to really get the other one was sure that was the one that some of the present shortcomings in the first ten year and a second term he promised to increase manufacturing jobs by one million in four years' salary to do that we need to have that twenty one thousand jobs per month to meet that mark we are falling way short of that market and right now anyway. obviously the run of the affordable care act was his answer us time and trouble here at the hill hearings taking place on today and that had been taking place recently aaron up facts it can demonstrate that the uncovering of the nsa is you guys mentioned something we've been covering hear a lot on rte. obviously that isn't only damaging the present reputation at home is also damaging them up on and then there's the irs scandal revelations about the pink out the attack and lack of preparedness there and the failure to get the farm children you know those are the feel of some failures and that we were able to find. i mean what are

some of the others and you know of where do i start let's start with the nda handle on it that the completed inspiration and due process and will blog about the magna carta and the return of thing that you can get twenty ten american citizens without a right to trial science writing a lot we are and that bush's measly fifty two drone strikes in the drone key cinemas hype around and killing thousands of civilians granted the use of these killer robots abroad failed to close gitmo you can blame the republicans all you want to enclose it tomorrow if he wants to. there's a provision and it allows him to release these detainees to their respective countries just failing this season the super majority in congress failing to get the option on the twenty afghanistan war with the failed troop surge trying to stay in iraq actually given credit for leading iraqi scientist and or pass the time table handling the war and whistleblowers and charging people with the espionage act world war one of the spine

legislation to advance his nanny to nineteen eighty eight in a banana that under no i concluded that you think that's a start i think it's kind of erroneous to you at this point on in the second term. say only had a really tough hand a pre guess he did back into past nine. we have the financial collapse of seven trillion dollars this is how much the housing bubble cost us american homeowners just in home equity seven trillion dollars on how would you know that that sparked the recession that's part of the dome was cause the entire class to the us economy. yes that was bad but what is he really going to fix this one economy alone. i think it's been an abysmal failure i think that when you look great now upwards of twenty percent of americans are still under water when it comes to their mortgages. i think that um you know that the rate of foreclosures is still really high and that in itself is causing a depreciation in home values as well so i think and in all this is going to john's as well so i think that on the holy natalee on civil liberties in a war for home econ is well on it's been a blogroll that i think that this latest poll by an italic this week that shows his approval rating dropping below forty percent is a perfect example of that

and if you're looking for a great look the american people speak for themselves below fifty percent street. i didn't talk about some of the accomplishments that he has achieved enough last year since re election just to give him the equal time. so first of all jay carney touted yesterday the president succeeded in raising taxes on the wealthy during the fiscal but negotiations on a cinema as high as that he had won it but there was some copper mines and all taxes were in fact latest deal to turn a new ear eye and ear right across the country with coming up winning the first president who is in office to support maps time he's been on implementing parts of the dream act housing on illegal immigrants that become legal citizens. we have annual actionable weapons treaty with syria. an agreement anyway. we honor when cutting net oil imports by half in twenty twenty and we've already reduced them out by forty two percent since two thousand and eight so that's obviously a step forward in terms of deficit reduction. his last goal was to reduce the deficit by four trillion dollars and twelve years and we are arguably on

the way to that. can't he is in the process of rebuilding relations with iran just maintaining those first topps in talks in a very long two decades of silence between the two countries. so i mean let's start with you he is the re anything that you have to say positively about the president's ever says that some of his previous failures they mentioned that i think i am as you said there had a lot of symbolic gestures of course coming out for gay marriage is huge however i'm not generally be happy until i see a federal law legalizing gay marriage at me and tom cheney counter in the bush administration saying he supported in there so that's it symbolic it's huge and don't know if you steal it i don't want i know there are some great things are going on and of course bush had success is to make and africa eu is good on africa relations and aid so that i don't do well in these miniscule smaller tree forms i focus on the overarching policies early continuing destruction of this kind can apply cereal call anything but a success. congress including basically forces him not at all i saw was just fear mongering rhetoric about

that ear on the greeks were starting to listen to the ron fantastic but the syria cannot start and i got diminishing our nuclear arsenal are chemical weapons arsenal and we can start really having some standing in a portion of the world many bring up from here on this thing is going to be in the sand at the white house for three more years what you wanna see happen. what was seen in these this local circus unthinkable we've been seeing for the last three years since two thousand to have a bipartisan commission that was due to slash the deficit by about four trillion dollars over the course of a decade. you mention this as a potential accomplishment to see this is a cousin on her failure. ever since. ever since then and it only to those who live and i think republicans have their fair share of the blame. yes of course but it's been a horrible job that pres obama than trying to bridge this bipartisan gap in congress he squandered his opportunity to do so by having on the super majority when he took office and the end i think that what we really need to see right now changes is to have that sort of bridge building between the two houses of

congress that truly the only option that can succeed guess how much are lying and ran some of the successes and failures of breaking this house daddy martin and producer many raffle oh thank you so much going on. well one of the major second term promises president obama reiterated this year. what if i could close guantanamo bay detention facility for guy yours in an anti obama administration must figure out what to do with the one hundred and sixty four detainees are currently living there some reason in the least. others transferred and some not prosecuted. a milton again those transfers could hit the floor of the senate as soon as november eighteen ninety and has a very rocky road and it can still look like a camp continues but is not bad for everyone. soldiers working in guantanamo bay have won clients even if donald's and have all you can eat buffets they also get to work out a state of the art recreation facilities are to respond on a stasi a church that takes a closer look at funny thing is

that you might not know about the detention facility. this week misconceptions gitmo is not just in jail so he ought not to be shot. it's also a forty five square mile military base with no plans of going anywhere. full of signs of established american life is a navy base and we just happen to have that thick and thin it took to the only mcdonald's on cuban soil subway sandwich shop a starbucks and a taco bell you go that's the best financial interest single piece of new books the books and dog although these other places that help to set up abt logistical support for the troops that are well over that there are about five and half thousand people living and working on the base of the house. serve the actual detention center he was the only thing the territories since nineteen oh three for just over forty five hundred dollars. curiously that is still the price today but it said that the cuban government has been refusing to accept this money for decades the cast really the government said here we don't want this piece and when the ice his position was

it's a fine evening we sat in the lisa actually sad thing can be broken unless both sides both countries agreed that it strikes me as a very odd contracts over territory that the us has occupied against cuba's wishes since nineteen fifty nine. most officers come here for short term of up to nine months or longer deployment of two to three years. far from home. life is put on hold they can. certain people waved her family have. this is where the air. blake can drink system. bailouts him there's a down to only see him and opening a movie theater playing all the hottest hollywood blockbusters and a cheeky bark to let loose after a hard day's work. even though most say schedules with an intense anyway we actually met by the time i like to be synonyms at the beach and into the hands on activities for people in the u n w r stands for morale welfare and recreation. almost every sport known to man is available to teams get well

and state of the art facilities. i love it it's done a lot of people think there's not much to deal with is definitely an abundance to do. being in a remote location doesn't even have to affect eating habits. all you can munch cost just under five bucks and breakfast is half that price down side though information will not go out. a lot of the tv programmes broadcast here are the focus. internet is almost nonexistent. the beast on mill street to stand by some soldiers even so we told those serving here are banned from looking at websites like twenty weeks for example once classified always classified even if the information has long been made the rather strict regulations in place to concept about guantanamo apparently a life of an eagle on the costs here little more than a life of the dt me if you run one of these babies over the line of ten thousand dollars. there's a very

strict and speed limits in guantanamo and it's a very slow speed limit and people say that that's that's all about the one that's somewhat ironic that at least marred by human rights scandals officials make a point of showing journalists how well prisoners to our kept entertained here. also for a client detainee in guantanamo he would be a lot of e books have called it the skiers and cancel the account who does less compliant ones to wear the orange uniforms and get only two books that i was cool though site so you can see the books pt knees kept coming here but the prisoner of my very lovingly displeased the best of their art for tv crews to see a lot of pre selected books to avoid certain topics finance sexual minutes in when the gist of controversy shelves packed with magazines cds and video games and plenty of ways for legit prisoners of war to pass the indefinite time they are kept here without charges

this procedure can a r t guantanamo bay cuba. more of an in depth coverage on guantanamo bay today i've gone to rt course one of the stasi turban and a myriad even joining me now on so i was always knew what was i might have been journalists ago when there is a common guantanamo bay. i actually got a realistic look at what is life fair day today. i mean considering it was a very fascinating but to act seriously even though we had these twelve hours for his every single day visiting detention camps visiting kitchen of the librarians you mean it's curious that was at the back to the end of the game we would die for forests often say this to scam me and i mean we have to see more. we have to see the detainee is we have to see their actual lives and that was unfortunately something we did not get enough of the cause of this on the cover up surrounding odd that it did sound even

when the detainee the news on that report that short glimpse of the dark on window that we saw about the detainee. nothing much the extent of beds and that was one of the things we discovered only when we got there because that we figured we would have a little more since then. he was taken late lesson for this experience for eon. ahh i would say a quest to war you know this is really a great example and not just our team value no slogan but really in this particular case ends in death really question why because i'm the only thing we were shown. we did this kind of have to look through the actual information and facts because there were a lot of the things that officials told us we knew did not like to have much basis behind it did not have much to do with a toxin that overall he really did try to present the whole place is just as andre sa jail that's just you know a dream to be and if you're a prisoner and certainly no that's not the case and a new one to bring you into this conversation as i understand

he recently came in contact with them for my gitmo detainee affair what i like talking to somebody who has been there and not only was it an experience that's all he does have a very interesting story his name is david hanson he's not the prototypical detainee at least what i would think that i think of the gitmo detainee he's not get many or broccoli or afghans actually a caucasian man from australia i just read it. bpd and some very interesting perspective he was actually captured. i'm back in two thousand won by the u s taken to guantanamo in early two thousand to win was really there for about nine years. i'm not being charged course he was charged thereafter on that night he experienced at what he calls torture sleep deprivation medical experimentation and cons of this is an and one when i stopped and i found i'd be very troubled by his pass by his experience isn't even said recently that he still suffers from nightmares and wasn't in contact with this guy had a deeper look at what is this thing he doesn't always happen this way when

adelaide that lucky enough but i david did reach out to ice time he had sage of coursen doing a lot on this issue you and i think he really just wanted to share his story with the american people. i'm really looking to clear his name as a convicted . let's take a look at that story. he was once known as the australian taliban david hicks the first man to be convicted of war crimes act guantanamo bay in after being detained for five and half years hicks is now asking an appeals court overturned that conviction arguing that his guilty plea was unknowing on intelligence and involuntary and part of a desperate attempt to secure his release hicks was captured in afghanistan for his alleged involvement with al qaeda in late two thousand won. soon after he was turned over to the us and taken to guantanamo in the facility's first batch of prisoners they are he says he sees day after day for the inhumane treatment was opened on a

small fortune. voices minutes for mom. physical beatings. all right and saw political ploy is. there was medical experimentation and it was the medical experimentation that would give takes the most harrowing memories will be forced to give injections or nose. up as well but it did not tell us. rule of the reasons a guy who owns the challenge especially this close to the sauce to the color of the tools. if you refuse to take injections of tools. and with us and what they called the hips and upper ross wood and they were physically force units. because in the former detainee claims are now let's go to a new study out this week that shows military doctors had designed and participated in

a cruel inhumane and degrading treatment of detainees. these conditions finally pushed takes to take a plea deal in two thousand seven on a charge of providing material support for terrorism. it was called an alford plea which meant he'd know what's the evidence they did not make any admissions. however he still knew it would be implications it wasn't an easy decision think about the ramifications of doing one on the analysts. this one isn't as austen did. such is a duty to take on something as serious as the stairs. it was destroyed in it would never let me forget that the charge of providing material support for terrorism was created by congress in two thousand six find your center hicks was captured in afghanistan and now his lawyers are seeking dismissal of that conviction saying it was in a war crime the time he was detained there a line on a recent us federal appeals court decision that overturned the conviction of saline and

on the former driver of osama bin laden who was charged with the scene crying the court ruled that i'm done cannot be charged retroactively. and now it's twelve years after his detainee david hicks will seek the same outcome. at the very nice i'll get the chance to explain his plea in court and perhaps even prove his innocence in washington and here is a bit artsy. well on down to an extremely disturbing case of alleged police over each as gain national attention in january new mexico police officers pulled over david and hurt for a routine traffic stop when he failed to yield to a stop sign in a walmart parking lots according to a lawsuit filed by patent attorney the officers men asked him to get out of the car which he can play with whoever the way the nation was standing seems suspicious to office hours because he appeared to be cringing as by knox police said they believed that he was kind of dogs inside of himself. he was apparently standing solo

suspiciously. he was then taken to the hospital. camby tv conducted a special investigation of what happened that night and this is what they discover according to court records and medical charts for doctors x ray detector then penetrated his rectum with their fingers then performed another exam with their fingers. doctors then gave a curt re analyze and forced him to death that even if one of them while they searched just told all of these things gone without consent. all of them finding nothing. but it didn't stop there. doctors performed a second x ray then they sedated echo are preparing him for surgery. i performed a cool announced tuesday. now perhaps the most disturbing part of this story if i could get more disturbing is that doctors came up empty handed. no drugs were ultimately discover. now david packard is suing the deming police

departments. he claims the police talking to two hospitals. the first one refuse to perform an cavity search. because dr said that the practice is without consent was enough on ethical practice. the second one can find police to obtain a warrant allowing all of these procedures to happen at this point police have refused to comment here and to tell us more about the loss in coming up will be i've dated actress attorney joseph kennedy however just thinking about this case obviously in all the steps that this man went to is just the day. something is probably on your mind that is definitely on my mind is how this happened before. now according to that same tv station k o b team needs him has in fact happened before to one other man who came out after the report was in fact well least and he said that it happened to him as well and get this happened with this ain't a canine new mates

that came up before in the search is so obviously the question should be. is there something wrong with this dog is there something that has this dog. miss identifying means that andy's that narcotics that don't exist or an a half to obviously update you as the story at the box. now in yesterday's elections across the country resulted in a few clear victories and many more questions for how many midterm elections could play out in twenty fourteen only could play out that is less like a quick look at the results from classmates new jersey governor chris christie won a second term as planned the second turn in a landslide victory. you already rumors are spreading about him being a presidential contender for twenty sixteen. virginia democrat terry mcauliffe narrowly defeated tea party republican candidate in alley to become governor of lance this race was much closer than analysts' i would be that is because of obamacare

is that disaster its rollout something that dad mcauliffe they departed and something that can contain only himself actually was the first attorney general sue that's a silly obama administration for eleven that was later dismissed. now libertarian candidate rob service and missed his goal of reaching ten percent. now don't put him on the ballot or the experience anyway. on the ballot in twenty twenty one. that's what he was hoping for that ten percent rtd pop star twenty six point six percent instead. so it is back to the drawing board for libertarians in the state. now in new york film the blind the old blues republican contender joseph load out of the water by taking over a seventy three percent of them out. in miami beach philip levine declared himself the new mayor last night though an official recount is likely to happen is if this race it was so close to the cornet michael and laura comedian and percy parker perry and boring was a correspondent your reporting on hold at about twelve

percent. detroit elected its first white mayor since nineteen seventy four former detroit medical center chief mike duke and he must face the millet that this city is that twenty billion dollars bankruptcy problems but he will not do that on his own most of the car for the city is still in the hands of the city's emergency and financial state. so will have to see how all of that plays out in the future was on his upcoming new people. now in colorado initiative to tax recreational marijuana is that in a twenty five percent on and that was actually passed the finals will go to schools and for the regulation also a fine of eleven roll counties in the mile high city that had the right to vote to secede from the state did in fact a ast that. however the likelihood of that becoming a reality is that adults as it needs to go through congress and the need to prove that first. finally in washington state voters took a cue from their california neighbors to

the south and stopped the ballot measure that would require the labeling of genetically modified foods so if you are living in a state you won't know what's really in your food anytime soon. but that meant it for now. on the stories we covered the youtube dot com slash thirty america. in the camo pants. noon. i should. yours. the us. it was

warm one. i do. all that well in today's climate. they're saying about seven and casting comanche and tokyo japanese leaders have struggled to satisfy the country's energy needs ever since the accident at pushing the diet eat in your crib prices led them to shut down reactors across to hand one by one ac because of that they have to revise their tie against reducing greenhouse gases
