6:32 pm
are designed for the tides to a time award and time to go to oklahoma senator jim inhofe the republican senator was appearing on fox news this morning to talk about guantanamo bay and how is that brian kilmeade asin hop that the u.s. should allow the detainees to get mel a visit from their families so here's what he had to say. keep in mind these detainees they have things they've never had before you with the biggest problem get low is right now well it's obesity you're eating better than they've ever eaten before they had better medical care they had better their legal counsel i mean you know you've got to draw the line somewhere that this drug. here is either in hock talk about it i mean give those sounds like club med they get great food to fatten up awesome medical care and a facility is located in the nice warm tropical climate like a dream vacation spot right i mean obviously i'm at
6:33 pm
a loss for words here the flippant attitude of senator inhofe kind of makes me want to puke there one hundred seventy two captives still being held at the facility and while they may have access to some legal counsel they're still being held without due process now senator inhofe thinks that being held for years and years in prison without any charges or a trial is less of a problem that obesity i think you need to have his head examined never mind that somebody very transferred from secret prisons overseas where they were tortured and because of that they've been deemed on trial meaning that they could a rot get well for the rest of their lives so i without so much as seeing a courtroom but apparently senator inhofe doesn't really think that's an issue in fact he thinks these people are being treated just right so fine that he scoffs at the idea that they should be able to see their families after all as inhofe says we need to draw the line somewhere you know the international committee of the red cross has been pushing the pentagon to allow for family visits of. and they already provide phone and video conferencing for some of that but senator in office friends
6:34 pm
are going ballistic over the proposed idea apparently hitler was almost paradise so for his embarrassingly dumb and live statement that obesity is a larger problem a good model and the absence of due process republican senator jim inhofe of oklahoma wins tonight's told time award. now a short while back we first told you about how google taking it upon themselves to censor any words they were sociate of the piracy sites from yours. we also spoke of whispers the congress was working to ensure that the federal government would be able to unilaterally order those search engines like google to block sites that they put on a blacklist and it turns out those rumors were true the senate has now officially introduced a bill that would give the government legal power to either disrupt or shut down completely any websites quote dedicated to infringing activities and it's a bipartisan measure brought forth by eleven senators called the protect i act and
6:35 pm
there are three key points for this bill first like we just said is to green down file sharing piracy websites but it also allows the government to present the sites with lawsuits and the measure would also make it illegal for search engines to even post a link to these sites which we should know has a lot of people up in arms already and rightly so and it also gives copyright holders the power to seek a court order or order and take legal action against the site themselves so in other words it gives the government the ability to blacklist piracy websites now this isn't the first time an anti-piracy bill has been discussed similar measure was presented last year called the court act however that measure wanted to allow suspected domains ending in dot com or dot nets to be able to be seized and well we all know how good the government is that seizing the right domains and that's why it was thrown out before it could be voted on but back to the protect ip act this is a big moment for movie makers recording studios anyone else out there isn't that going against copyright infringement they've been trying to take legal action against
6:36 pm
those who are pirating their material in a looks like they finally have congress fully in their pocket so this would mean a new era in copyright law that gives the government power to go after any one pirating material and it encourages encourages search engines to become more vigilant against these sites and gives movie and music powerhouses the ability to go after these pirates themselves a little scary right broadening censorship making a link to those sites an illegal act and encouraging black. it seems to go against everything that the internet was created for like free and open expression when it comes to everything and i don't really think they'll be out of line to say that this measure could be described as draconian again very very scary so i guess we're going to wait and see how congress and the rest of the u.s. government feels about this one because if it does become law there notice a lot of changes on the internet. now today congressman ron paul made it official he's running for president again but while he's long been considered
6:37 pm
a fringe candidate this time around he just right now the country reeling from an economic crisis the housing bubble that imploded and weary from fighting on stop wars opinions are definitely shifting but what's going to be the biggest obstacle for paul his libertarian ideal that in some respects seem rather radical for average americans or the g.o.p. establishment that's hell bent on keeping the status quo here to discuss it with me is mike riggs associate editor at reason because he and mike thanks so much for being here and i think you'll know like i said ron paul he's been preaching about the same stuff for the last thirty years or so of those years on capitol hill and nobody really listen for a while he was always the outsider but he said today when he was announcing that he was running again that you feels the timing is right this time around what do you say yeah we were in the middle of a crisis and the ideas that he's always been talking about the haven't had the same word you've seen all the sudden don't sound so irrational i mean the idea of
6:38 pm
reining in federal spending in a big way reforming entitlements ending wars that have cost us over a trillion dollars in the last ten years all that stuff suddenly sounds less radical more common sense i think i mean unfortunately does it always have to take something of this proportion you know a financial crisis of this magnitude nonstop wars the longest war in american history to get people to actually start looking either i.d.'s looking at third party so yeah i think so i mean the g.o.p. wants to preserve the status quo i think i mean so is the democratic party because the status quo works for presence of american middle class which were i mean this is lawmakers appeal to you and so you know it doesn't really matter too much about how bad it was grants are being treated or you know what's going on with invading the sovereignty of pakistan by sending in the seal school song or where we're spending our money i mean as long as things are fine the stuff doesn't really matter i don't think that makes americans particularly bad but it does mean that they wait until now to look around at other options now i wonder though because if
6:39 pm
you look at some of ron paul's. ideas here some of the policies that he likes make sense right now for americans to say hey we need to rein in government spending we need to stop some of these wars but he already has said himself with that idea of not seeming compassionate it's going to be a big problem for him because when you think of the fact that you're in a recession and you have a candidate out there that doesn't believe you can welfare unemployment or even you know the civil rights act or anything like that how are americans going to think that he has any compassion you know exactly and i have problems and you don't want to help me fix that yeah it's this is an interesting thing i mean this is why people have tried to cash the idea of personal responsibility as a as a positive for everybody and sort of you know the idea is we are not taking away we're not taking away your benefits we're basically teaching you to like them for yourself sort of for yourself now and we're in a recession when the wealth gap is one of the largest ever been in the country when african-americans fifty percent of them almost are unemployed like we're just
6:40 pm
talking about and you know it is it's definitely hard i think it it has to move beyond soundbites for instance there has to be a discussion of how maybe the u.s. response to the housing crisis hasn't been hit very helpful i mean we've kept the home prices are falling yes but the same time or like some of our economic policies are inflating home prices keeping first time buyers of the market keeping houses from changing houses from changing hands so i think it would have to move beyond soundbites there would have to be some sort of justification of for instance gary johnson was asked in the south carolina debate i think probably the same thing that wage floors minimum wage laws can be harmful because they can keep more people in the household from working if they're not eligible to meet a minimum wage paying job so it definitely has to move beyond just say personal responsibility over and over again i mean i've not sure the pause a chance of winning the over in the g.o.p. nomination but if you want to influence the debate if you want to influence policy from what he essentially has i mean this is going to be the biggest platform he's going to have for the next four years is running for president it's going to have to be right but the question that i was asking the beginning was what's going to be
6:41 pm
the reason why. he isn't going to win this g.o.p. nomination today we're going to g.o.p. it's going to be do you know the idea it's going to be well i mean it's going to be a combination of the two i mean the g.o.p. wants somebody that can make their candidate for instance ron paul's magnus's in that he has it is not people do not flock from paul because he's a republican candidate they flock to rome paul because he's ron paul so what the g.o.p. needs they need they need two things they need one somebody who's platform and whose history as a legislator as a governor. who witnessed that the g.o.p. has set out on abortion on maybe on social issues definitely on the military but then they also need somebody that they can try to around the country for you know the months of the campaign season and say like this is the guy you vote for not because he's themself because he's a republican but you need to get republican voters out not just people who identify with the care but why do you think it is that young people flock to me and he's not
6:42 pm
a young guy president obama is much younger yes then ron paul but is it because they have grown up with you know with this corporatist government if they've grown up during this recession they've grown up during this war on terror and they're the ones that are really willing to look for something different they're the ones that want to change the most because let's face it things are getting better you know i think it has i mean you introduced ron paul as somebody who has a lot of radical ideas i think young people are drawn to him for that very reason i mean we have a country that is you know the drug use is it's not that i sort of young people but certainly the penetration of drug use and culture is much more mundane than it was during the one nine hundred sixty so you have a lot of people coming out to say like god like is this stuff really that bad i mean we have reality television and taught us about that maybe prostitution is maybe not the worst thing in the world to have a basically you have culture of telling young people what your politicians are telling you it's really harmful is not really and you have certain states doing it to you i mean how do you know that you experienced in fifteen states you have
6:43 pm
already legalized it lastly though the thing is ron paul is still running as a republican are we. just ages decades away from a real party candidate i think i think we are think what i mean if that's if we want what i mean ideally i think you know we have two existing infrastructures the democratic republican parties does it make more sense to basically sort of blow those parties wide open so that the you know the biggest possible field can run there but i think you see this more often in the democratic party and their primaries you can see people like in the senate you know who's kind of a perennial candidate make me better better have better success going out these like really wide messages for a party if we want to see third party stuff we not only do they have to get stronger develop better infrastructure sort of tied together all the localities we also see the two main parties get a little weaker i think time i don't want to thank you very much for joining us and we'll see how the campaign goes far beyond this that are around he definitely has a legion of fans that are dedicated but any expand that base of a rock star base thanks so much thank you now can we operate have our fireside
6:44 pm
friday and then stick around for happy hour of some of the lot and was in fact torn down the arrival of in our in fact that leaves one running here case for construction and jim hansen military blogger for black dot net join me for all that just cannot. let's not forget that we are in a park right. i think. well. we haven't got the shows they're going to say get ready because their freedom.
6:45 pm
hey john berman here broadcasting live from washington d.c. coming up today on the big picture. new web site with twenty four seven live streaming news towns what to do about the ongoing financial heart unlimited high quality videos for download. and stories you may never find on mainstream news. the. most aren't just watched.
6:46 pm
you guys welcome michel ancel the old on a show we've heard with our guests not to say on the topic now i want to hear audio just go on to you tube to video response or to twitter for part of the questions that we post on you tube every monday and on thursday the show long response is going. to tonight's bias tied with your host. well it's another week and there's more bad news before we get started let's just walk through a few basic principles when it comes to the u.s. government let's remind ourselves of the idea of checks and balances the three branches of government that have been set up to make sure that no one branch holds too much power these checks and balances have been nearly demolished in our country especially when it comes to the expansion of the executive branch and obama has turned out to be one of the worst offenders not only has this president
6:47 pm
unilaterally decided to get us into a. war in libya or decided that he can place american citizens on this as a nation list he's also signed an executive order to create a formal policy for indefinite detention so now he can keep holding people without any regard for the law for as long as he wants what we've seen this week goes farther and goes much farther in some of these cases obama has actually asked for congressional approval or as the courts but i think that it's pretty safe to say that neither one is going to say no to the commander in chief this week obama asked congress to extend the normally ten year limit on the position of f.b.i. director for another two years you see robert mueller has been in charge since before nine eleven and according to our president because we're in a war on terror it would just be too stressful to change horses midstream so obama claims that he wants to extend this extension only to robert mueller only to his administration but of congress says yes that's
6:48 pm
a very dangerous president i speak all too often on how this creeping war on terror works for how long until we see a president to extend his own term limits because we are in a war let me give you another example in the case of thomas a drake a former n.s.a. executive who is accused of funneling documents to an unnamed reporter the obama administration's department of justice seeking a presidential request from the courts they want the judge to withhold a sensor on classified documents about the n.s.a. so not only have they waged a war against whistleblowers really think classified information now they want to be able to pick and choose what else can be kept off the record forget about all those labels of it being classified they just don't like it but by far the most dangerous move this week is coming from in congress itself republican lawmakers are trying to slip into the defense budget for two thousand and twelve an expansion of
6:49 pm
the authorization of the use of military force that's something that would allow the president to wait. huge war on anyone he wants at any time and they want to have that authority to him on a silver platter they want to be able to declare a constant state of war so who needs those pesky restrictions the ones that say that we can only go after people the world over a detainee and bomb them because they were directly involved with you know this new language up for debate says it applies to the taliban al qaeda and all associated forces do you know what an associated force is it's anyone the president decides it is this is absolutely crazy the war on terror is the most detrimental most dangerous lie in the modern history and it backs the constitution the rule of law the morals and the logic of this country and if it passes you can say goodbye to the america that you once knew but just remember that i warned you.
6:50 pm
right it's friday and it's time for our happy hour joining me this evening is argue producer jenny churchill and jim hansen retired special operations master sergeant and military blogger for black buy dot net thanks for joining me guys now there was some you know really breaking news coming from the new from the new you. already we're coming out. regarding the treasure trove of intelligence that was gathered a lot of compound if i didn't give away you can take a look it was a bit. of breaking news on the stash of documents discovered inside some of bin laden's million dollar compound and no these are not documents that members of congress want to view and b c news can now confirm that a stash of pornography for what was found inside the terror leader's live
6:51 pm
collection said to be rather extensive pornographic video. well counterterrorism officials still going over the drives the hard drives of computers that were found at the compound it was some good law and we are now getting word of it among all of the other information that they have been able to uncover they have also found pornography stashed on the computers and hard drives at the bin laden compound in a bottle fox all right so bin laden had an extensive stash of porn i guess we should really find out all that surprising you know warren is a completely alien in the arab world and the guy you know it's not like he's a saint he the terrorist and a killer but my question is do you think it really belonged to osama i really think you belong to the three lives that are sitting around really bored and cooped up in the compound all the time i think absolutely belong to osama and i think that this explains everything literally everything he's so mad at the western world because he's battling a serious porn addiction much like much of hollywood i don't only tell you i can
6:52 pm
actually confirm this was been logs porn just based on the titles that some of my friends especially community when he had deep throat you know brokeback mountain go you had to go it's one cook this was all saw most porn and it just says a little something about al qaeda overall we have been having. to believe me with the possible titles. was born it may have been but the thing is to you know we didn't have internet in this compound so you're assuming that i guess it was the courier that was bringing it to him so that makes me wonder you know was the kind of older so that's probably bad seventy's part months be honest it was probably really odd stuff with ridiculous music and mustaches so i mean roger and it was definitely a yes. that's an obvious well i guess we may never know but i really do hope you know if the government is going to give us a picture of osama's dead body i hope they give us a least a few more clues as to what kind of porn he watched let's move on to this other
6:53 pm
story that really caused us there were some decided to make a list. of the top ten hottest female sex offenders in texas and then i think you apologize that i realize it's a bad idea because people were offended and because it first you think like you know sex offenders maybe they're drunk college girls that flash somebody that's why they have a mug shot you know these are actually really sick people i mean i went there and i looked at the list and their victims were you know a four year old boy or a thirteen year old girl and you know ok but seriously i know what i really want to be in about a bad. temper. i mean what i really want to see is the ten ugliest female sex offenders i think it's the how did i go yeah let's work on the funny guy and you know spring chickens are that cute i just want to go on the record see the were the trippy teachers and i was in school you know all these teachers sweeping with their fourteen year old students that would have been the
6:54 pm
highlight of my youth and career new so i don't feel draw a line this is this is how this whole thing started as he was trying to draw awareness he thought that this would be funny and we live in such a mrs robinson culture where a boy has sex with his female teacher and everyone's like oh nobody good show him is one of them and all the does that give you that are you back on to say. those would you give him jim. i don't know if you guys ever had i'm from california and a now burger is you know we're famous for it it's absolutely delicious i love it and it texas was just blessed with their very first in and out but i mean there are you know cars lined up for a mile or two and some people really really freaking out take a look at this clip. i just have i mean. it's just so overwhelming. that they all night can sweep it does it feel real. you know when there is.
6:55 pm
only a few of us with. time as you. can see this. so far in c.n.n. the families you know and some living in california. you know you might not be able to get americans to protest a war and be passionate about that but when it comes to a burger the way in a line for miles and then cry about it you know this speaks volumes about america perhaps like we cry actually you know she wept tears over a cheeseburger it's not there grabbing the cool thing about it out burgers a secret you know if you want secret hansen and all this you get peacocks. this lady was a little out of control and now she's going to hold even go there i'm hoping that she was either drunk or pregnant i mean something has to explain this i do want to say though however if a skyline kid was driving pregnant that's possible too if it skyline came to
6:56 pm
washington d.c. . i have no idea what i was also taken in a way better than by you guys all right alaska lee yesterday we made fun of dan adler a congressional candidate in southern california and it turns out he's releasing a number of these ads and they're supposed to be really ridiculous and this time he even got some celebrities to help him out so take a look at one of the latest. are you supposed to be out there campaigning. you're so full of crap you just don't get your fun of putting up enough and put out a stack of political experience when you hung in there with the same politicians the system offers up year after year since you got into this campaign in this life you don't have nothing to prove and nobody except yourself and the voters of the thirty sixth district so what you see you ready for this ready for this my life.
