all right it's time for you said it i read it or take time to respond to my brilliance and engaging viewer comments from facebook twitter and you too because when you've got something to say i listen now all three comments tonight come from group two and first i'd like to address a comment from the commenter that shall no longer be named you can see the name i just can no longer say it on t.v. without breaking out into laughter and losing my cool anyway this is in response to my constant attacks on the mainstream media for covering the casey anthony trial nonstop the comment said you know loner it's ok to have a heart and care about something that's very dearly important to the lot of us on an emotional level but that's right your call of an inhuman you can't process empathy much less we're going to hate against the media and that's why people love you because you're a i think pinnacle of what is right and what is wrong no emotion or human element
6:33 pm
involved we might as well be watching news from a robot. what can i say i had no idea people love me because i'm a cold emotionless robot but you know what if that's the case i guess i should give the people what they want i'll stop reporting on soldier and civilian deaths in our endless wars also reporting on innocent victims of violent swat raids or any type of police brutality other people our justice system is decided to put to death on those that we tortured just to name a few overweight that would be just like the mainstream media that only cares about one death in this world as horrible as that is so you tell me who's really the robot now the next time and i'd like to respond to some sermon fingers this is about the interview that i did with an immigration attorney last week on alabama's new immigration law and finger said they're undocumented and here illegally under federal law they're just inforcing the law crime or jesus christ this has nothing to do with immigration policy it's merely a measure for enforcement of existing federal law i'm going to try to make this one
6:34 pm
pretty you know where it existing federal law does it say that you should let somebody lie there and die rather than help them because they're undocumented you know actually if you think back to i don't know the declaration of independence of things that made this country what it is it says that we're all created equal and we're all endowed with the inalienable rights to life liberty and the pursuit of happiness not that we should treat others like it under class but fear to citizens hearts who would be there to help them that's not humane that's what immigration policy in some states has become and lastly i'd like to respond to a comment from ian one five one now this is about me getting lindsay lohan the tool time award for tweeting about the fed only because she was paid to do it in one five one said why are you such a bitch leave her alone you know idea you might be right i was being kind of a bitch but so what and i have more responses for your comments next week. well the new head of the international monetary fund met with the media today here in washington d.c.
6:35 pm
this is christine lagarde second day on the job and she takes over the i.m.f. at a very delicate time greece and portugal the budget woes are causing problems for markets worldwide as artie's christine prayers are porous most of the mainstream media only want to ask questions about the sex scandal of her predecessor dominique strauss kahn. from violence on the streets of the middle east. to protests in north africa. war in libya. to europe. for portugal's credit rating has been deemed junk. and in greece. where unemployment hovers at about sixteen percent and the debt crisis has sparked anger. in ireland a blanket of despair as people there too have come out to speak out in hopes of
6:36 pm
igniting change entire cities as well as their policies have been lit up in flames . nearly all of this anger stemming from poverty and failed economic policies in the us as well high unemployment sits atop a mountain of problems like housing prices and slow financial growth. this is the world christine legarde inherits as she begins her new post as managing director of the international monetary fund in her first formal meeting with the press at the i.m.f. headquarters in washington she seemed optimistic in her hopes to get the country back on track the international monetary fund is here to serve and to provide services to its hundred and eighty seven members if not that fear of news stories fill the inaugural press conference for the new managing director of the i.m.f. there garner quite a bit of media attention most likely it had left to deal with christine lagarde
6:37 pm
herself and more to do with the reason why she is here. inside the room that cameras and tripods stood like soldiers guarding the entrance of the castle keeping close watch and wondering aloud about the guards predecessor what lessons do you think or to be drawn from the way the u.s. legal system and though these trials time case will be any reforms in the human relay and human resources policies here you play in any changes and in light of the controversy over mr strauss kahn the controversy of course with dominique strauss kahn accused of raping a hotel maid in new york and that case now starting to crumble after it turned out the maid had credibility problems but back to the i.m.f. we're looking hard will take over let me ask you about a couple of issues what worries you the most guarded her best to stay on message we cannot be only driven by the hope to
6:38 pm
reduce fiscal deficits and organize fiscal consolidation in a big way whether you look at advanced economies or whether you look at emerging markets or lower income countries the issue of employment. is a critical one the one hundred eighty seven nation organization has already lent one hundred sixty billion dollars to cash strapped nations many of which have little hope for paying it back. so the real questions are manifested here on the streets of some of the nation suffering the most are accepting aid from the i.m.f. has been presented at times as the only option as austerity measures are now being put into place but questions too are in the dollar and how its value may or may not change under her watch for managing the debt crisis around the world will fall at the top of her agenda as the rest of the world watches with hope first ability in
6:39 pm
an unstable world. in washington christine for example. a new report from the u.n. out this week says the world is going to need one point nine trillion dollars a year over the next forty years for incremental investments in clean technology compare that to the near twenty billion dispersed by the world bank and climate change funds over the last two years or the thirty billion agreed to at the copenhagen summit in two thousand and nine which by the way still hasn't been realized and that sounds like a lot of money but then you compare it to the three point seven trillion and counting the u.s. wars in iraq and afghanistan of cost and it starts to pale in comparison how about the recent reports that it cost twenty point two billion dollars a year just for air conditioning in iraq or afghanistan or the twenty two point nine billion dollars a year the pentagon spends just on battling rust and you start realizing if we want to we could find the resources to devote or at least enough buyers of our debt to
6:40 pm
devote those resources there so what role could america play in this worldwide necessity of green tech and why do we choose not to join me to discuss this is david roberts senior staff writer at risk or a day where first thoughts on this report of one point nine trillion dollars a year where they say over the next forty years that sounds like a huge estimate like a lot of money or not that much. concern like a lot if you just take it so you show your true amber what it's global and over to it doesn't just mean government it's about all this is about all taxpayers on. your part of it or marshalling private capital to make those investments and that's the means to change the rules because there are those of us so we need to spend. any chance of that actually happening though. well the reason no more program person doesn't go into these things. because we've got
6:41 pm
a century of dominoes for certain sort of process you also make it over again true so as long as there was trouble on us i don't see a huge change to rent. i you know i just mention of course some of the statistics of how much we've been spending on our military so i also feel like even if it does come down to government funds you know if there is a will then there is a way but do you think it will ever switch those priorities around or perhaps as food becomes more scarce as we you know see of course the natural elements become more extreme are really going to start beefing up that military spending. well i think you probably will. i do think the government will begin to stonewall on the stuff but it will follow protocol literally it will be entrepreneurs and business people who want to make money who will pressure the government or by the counterbalance to the fossil fuels and government will be grudgingly wants.
6:42 pm
anything so far of why obama has been doing of course he's been taking flak from both sides from the left for not doing enough he's been taking flak from the right for perhaps doing too much they think that he's focusing too much on green tech companies or course he has a new initiative where he wants to make all cars start to have a certain performance on the road as he pinpointing the right things or is that kind of small change. oh the main thing to remember obama is that he's incredibly constrained you as a person of us because you know us congress so. he could buy you a little congress for a while and got very little done quite a bit with his executive powers although you can do more of what he did with the fuel economy standards who's an executive who will be at least for now will stand as the biggest contribution to clean energy and yes reactions of his presidency now how much exactly do we stand right now on trying to green a fine our military. no one has actually calculated
6:43 pm
but i think right now renewable energy provides i think something else four percent of the energy the military so it's a fraction of their total budget but sort of the irony is that there's no institution in the u.s. including congress who are business that is taking clean energy as seriously as the military they're actually doing more to create a market than than the rest of the federal government at this point otherwise are there so much better eyes because the government is really bad messaging i mean a or it could it be private industry why does it have to be the private industry only when it comes to working with the military is able to really to corner this market and to get the money to invest well to invest private capital you need market so what the military does this create a market in the real military. so that the military doesn't have to grapple with congress and to make new rules so you can say we're going to take you seriously and . you know appropriations certain changes in the rest of it so eventually the
6:44 pm
military will create a fairly big market and obama has done a lot to make sure the federal government itself its own buildings and fleets are fairly large markets too so you'll start to shift once the economics are sure and then really quickly let's also compare it to china which of course at this point is really leading the way when it comes to green technology and to investment how far ahead of us are they. well we have to remember that there despite their enormous. people who are still per capita was much more that us. getting extraordinary about splitting our foundation for a long term growth and we seem to of. all hopefully at some point will have to remember how to do that at the u.n. is already calling out to everybody the entire world that one point nine trillion dollars excuse me a year is going to be needed just to try to keep up with the way the world is changing in the future and considering the fact that even at the copenhagen summit the deal that they made in two thousand and nine but none of them money has been
6:45 pm
realized yet it has really seem all that promising unfortunately david thanks so much for joining us tonight thank you. also a concert night now high a lot maker is art school time reward for his actions over a hot dash cam video from a show that you have on it and that we have our midweek edition of happy hour i guess they says the terrorists are planning attacks by smuggling bombs into the u.s. inside of their bodies and wait until you hear why woman was removed right after this them. into it only when it was. difficult work to bring justice for accountability. i have every right to know what my government should do if you want to know why i pay taxes. but i would characterize obama as a charismatic version of american exceptionalism.
6:46 pm
you know sometimes you see a story and it seems so silly you think you understand it and then he glimpse something else here so you saw the part of it and realized everything you saw you don't know i'm trying hard look at the big picture. let's not forget that we had an apartheid regime right. i think the beautiful and funny well. we never got the show's there for keeping safe get ready i think the entire freedom .
6:47 pm
6:48 pm
a hard line conservative married father of three or during the current legislative session robert had to be worried that a very private matter was about about to go public is he back on the weekend of good friday in april the congressman was stopped for drunk driving a while in nearby indiana and the eighteen minutes where the video of novice or dash cam of the arrest is really good stuff it was just put on you tube by the dearborn county prosecutor's office this week so i'm no weapon videotape tell most of the story for itself roberts will stop because he had a headlight out working on his car the officer then started a series of tests to determine if he made a truck. yes well i think of you i mean i don't we don't we get it. right here. so you do think you know why did that guy just be here that's all i don't care about the guy you know. he literally could not hold officers for several minutes and then try to blame the
6:49 pm
poor guy walking across the parking lot or distract to get out the next that's also good and very well for the lawmaker you know you want to leave the country i feel like you think it's. because i'm not bad for winning without if you want that i'm through just like that. so what do you want me to you're going to tell him you know you know. you know you're going to be like i'm with a miracle. if. we're here you know from the vehicle. when i began what i hear. that's right he couldn't follow simple commands that he wanted a whole lot of a car to balance himself so yeah he was drunk at the last piece of video that i want to play for you is when a robert macklin board had already been placed into the patrol car he's not the picture but you can still hear his voice. she go where
6:50 pm
she won't feel like like a little girl when i think that you know we want to do something i will. so she can we meet. broke windows she had one of the important. now like i said earlier roberts a married father of three he seemed very concerned about the passenger in his car and that's probably rick good reason for that the cincinnati t.v. station the report of the twenty six year old woman was actually a dancer at a local strip club and after he was finally hauled off to jail his blood alcohol level came back at point nine seven and he had traces of my aggro in a system that is when a g.o.p. family values man gets caught with a stripper stripper in his car and buy agra and insist of that because a robber refused to take a breathalyzer test his license will be suspended for one year and the democratic party in ohio was quick to point out that if a new voter id bill that he happens to be sponsoring passes he could have trouble voting he'd have to deal with the hassle of getting a state issued id card just to vote the irony is just so rich here and that's why
6:51 pm
republican state representative robert mecklenburg of ohio is tonight's bull's-eye mayor. it's wednesday and it's time for happy hour so joining me tonight is archie correspondent lauren lyster and evan make more essential or porter and blogger for talking points memo thanks for joining me guys thanks for having me on i don't know if you know this about me but i really love campaign ads. they kind of you know smile on my face every day they just brighten my day and i'm really happy that we're getting into election season again because the r. and c. already has one about obama take a look. six million soldiers were truly dead five million. dollars were many generations. just changed.
6:52 pm
and i don't know what do you think it's gonna get right with a car flying off a cliff the train very visual very action packed more action packed then and some of the i said we think on capitol hill where they can agree or that do you think it's better than some policy that was going to say we're seeing so many of these sort of movie like ads from the republican side everyone's got their next movie preview to kind of one up each other i want to see all these movies so much of i want to watch how can i use unfold but everyone who comes out in these ads i want to see that you want to see the economy being driven off a cliff there's a train going to barrel roll you want to see you i want you have you know i don't know you i don't know if i like this trend in action movies i kind of like last year where we had the trend in the guns and everybody needed to have their homemade videos. and you know so i was drawn out there i'm going. to do if they knock down your campaign. it was really really cheesy you know they're trying to get a little more high class there's a line in which he is you know comes in like he's very much a whole lot of times it out and let's talk about obama had
6:53 pm
a twitter town hall today where he was supposed to take questions from whoever wanted to tweet to him and supposed to be open to everybody and then he got a question from this particular the next question comes from someone you may know the suspect or better so there you go. after breaking on a record speaking spending bridge that left us deeper and where are the jobs question mark and i want to note that these characters are his fault. so. john obviously needs to work out his tyson skills do you think they pick that one just so you could make that have been or thinking skills i think though could you kind of set him up for healing you know point out that those typing typos were all. i was surprised the question came in at all i mean i was reading earlier there's one hundred sixty nine thousand tweets that was. this account i mean for years going at the white house tomorrow couldn't they could find somebody who's not. there that and all her people on twitter they don't get the opportunity and the funny thing is you get plenty of opportunities we think we realized why it was that he didn't
6:54 pm
answer anyone else's questions because we have a few of. president comes from dave weigel so when the truth is found to be lies and all the joy within you guys don't want somebody to love we got another one of those if i become a corporation will the government finally try to help me and the third one is when you're visiting his volcano lair it is george soros leadership where. i answered me i was thoroughly entertained today with the theft of your coming up with our very own jenny churchill who works on the show she had some really good questions that she was tweeting through to the president of course i answered you that's we didn't play. very well as you may do you have a question in there right well you know we try to keep him but we sort of you know with john boehner getting in there we're never going to be ours and you're so you know we're we're getting one of by the speaker of the house and he's going to do ok so we call that a failing that our twitter fail i'd like your computer sound all better then it has
6:55 pm
those ones that you highlighted were better than what we saw you know i would watch that. yeah so you want somebody want to be alone and show twitter account. ok here's a story that barely ok there's really another really scary thing happening in the world so more of your rights are going to be violated whenever you try out now and take a look at what u.s. officials have new intelligence indicating the terrorists have discussed surgically surgically implanting explosive devices or components into passengers flying into the u.s. from overseas and also in the funny thing about this is the in our editorial meeting this morning we're like i swear we've already done this story and we went back and look through our stories and sure enough in february of two thousand and ten we had a whole story that we called taking time because it was the. terror. because they believe putting eggs plosives into their breast implants so i mean this isn't anything new i feel like is the t.s.a. feeling like they're not relevant right now to scare people again for me to delete
6:56 pm
this story after the whole depends issue with the grandma so that it can justify them asking her to remove her defense that's a good point i hadn't thought about that at all i mean i just think it's going to be talking about always spectacular terrorist attacks when the one who was really successful while it was pretty spectacular involve box cutters and just you know we'll take it so i wonder if all the talk about this we're going to implant things are going to have i don't know because leader isaac the sharks and george soros is later i mean i wonder how realistic all that really is and how much we need to worry about that versus just kind of general security overall with you know getting less spectacular kind of a child i mean that's always a body scanner is not a real to go through and i thought that kind of sorts because that is supposed to also i put all my shampoo away that's a post you could. be using and that's the whole point is they don't do the basic obvious big thing they start focusing on the little thing. whatever well this is actually kind of funny speaking of how tight everyone is on planes these days there is a woman who was escorted off a u.s. airways plane today and deemed a security risk after she took
6:57 pm
a photo of an employee's name tag at philadelphia's international airport on friday apparently the employee was being rude thought she wanted to do a snotty little picture that means she could remember when she wrote a letter complaining about it one of the things that we get to enjoy as american citizen this complaining about stuff i love doing that you get kicked off a plane can't break i think it's horrible i think you do all these stories about how people aren't allowed to video the police and this is a whole new level or in trouble it's already such a pain to fly i feel like air airlines already have such a monopoly over your life when you travel and all of your rights i mean this woman was completely derailed had to switch flights a bunch of times you know it could all have been great to hear that if you would you be able to do that something that made you man feel like you scared security risk get him out of my total get out of my mindset and i'll tell you one that finally. because the power play out of the power of appealing idea like i have it to my job like this is my point i admire it to me it's appealing be able to snap pictures of people who complain about their own that effect are you thanks for joining me tonight thanks for doing it as make sure you come back tomorrow
6:58 pm
