but you know sometimes you see a story and it seems so for the sleep you think you understand it and then he glimpse something else you hear sees some other part of it and realize that everything is ok and you don't know i'm sorry welcome to the big picture. see. her. and yet still. feel full force for.

the so. let's not forget that we had an apartheid regime right here in the lead i think iraq is in need of money well. we never government says they're keeping safe get ready because of the freedom.

all right it's time for you said it and i read it where it's a time to respond to my brilliance and engaging viewer comments from facebook twitter and you tube because when you've got something to say i listen now all three comments tonight come from two and first i like to address a comment from the commenter that shall no longer be named you can see the name i just wonder say it on t.v. without breaking out into laughter and losing my cool anyway this was in response to my constant attacks on the mainstream media covering the casey anthony trial nonstop the comment said you know now it's ok to have a heart and care about something that's very dearly important with a lot of us on an emotional level but that's right you're cold and 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 effing pinnacle of what is right and what is wrong no emotion or human element involved we might as well be watching news from

a robot. what can i say i had no idea people loved me because i'm a cold emotionless robot but you know what if that's the case i guess i should give the people if they want i'll stop reporting on soldier and civilian deaths in our endless wars i'll stop reporting on the innocent victims of violence fought raids or any type of police brutality other people in our justice system is decided to put to death on those that we've tortured just to name a few. that would make me 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 comment i'd like to respond to comes from red fingers this is about the interview that i did with an immigration attorney last week on alabama's new immigration law and figures said they're undocumented and here illegally under federal law they're just enforcing the law a crime or a 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 brief though 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 it will 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 we're all endowed with the inalienable rights to life liberty and the pursuit of happiness not that we should treat others like it underclass but fear to citizens hearts who would dare to help that that's not humane and 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 and one by one said why are you such a bitch leave her alone so you know already and you might be right i was being kind of a ditch 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. this is christine lagarde second day on the job and she takes over the i.m.f.

in a very delicate time greece and portugal as budget woes are causing problems for markets worldwide as artie's christine for us our reports most of the mainstream media only want to ask questions about the sex scandal of her predecessor dominique strauss kahn i from violent on the streets of the middle east. to protests in north africa. war in libya. to europe. or portugal's credit rating has been deemed junk. engine grease. for 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 igniting change entire cities as well as their policies have been lit up in flames

. 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 lagarde inherits as she begins at 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 it's not that the effect of news stories by fill in on the world press conference for the new managing director of the i am there garner quite a bit of media attention most likely it had left to deal with christine lagarde herself and more to do with the reason why she's here. inside the room cameras and

tripods stood like soldiers guarding the entrance of the castle keeping close watch and wondering aloud about the guard's predecessor what lessons do you think could be drawn clear where the u.s. legal system handled the strauss kahn case we could be any reforms in the human relay and human resources policies here you play in any changes in them 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 by banks of the i.m.f. were low guard will take over then yes you have 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

reduce fiscal deficits and organize fiscal consolidation in a big way whether you look at advanced economies or whether you look at emerging markets 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 the 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 or fall of the top of her agenda as the rest of the world watches with hope first ability in an

unstable world. in washington christine for his own party. when you 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 green 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 devote those resources there so what role could america play in this worldwide

necessity of greentech and why do we choose not to and we discuss this is david roberts senior staff writer at grist dot org david first thoughts on this report of one point nine trillion dollars a year where they say for the next forty years that sounds like a huge estimate like a lot of money or not that much. consoling a lot if you just take it so you slow you go through murder one it's global there were two doesn't just mean government categories are not all these are not all so spare. part of it right for marshalling private capital to make those investments and that's government needs to change the rules with those of us so we need to spend. any chance of that actually happening though. well the reason no more program doesn't is it going to these things is the government rules are skewed because we've heard a century of dominance goes certain sort of process fuels them and economic

interests so as long as there were straight all of us government i don't see a huge change coming very soon and 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 do you think they 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 military spending. well i think a book i do think the government will begin to spend more on the stuff but it will follow protocol visually it will be entrepreneurs and business people who want to make money who will pressure the government in. the fossil fuels and government will be grudgingly once broke up or start 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 of 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. well the main thing to remember obama is that he's incredibly strange as a burst of us and calls us congress so. he's got he's battle congress for a lot and done very little is done quite a bit with this executive powers although you're more. fuel economy standards and executive moving there will be at least for now will stand as the biggest contribution to clean energy and. presidency now how much exactly do we stand right now on trying to green a fine our military. no one is actually calculated

but i think right now renewable energy prices i think something else four percent of the energy in 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 or business that is taking clean energy as seriously as the military they're actually doing more to create a market. than the rest of the federal government at this point otherwise are there so much better eyes because the government is really bad messaging 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 markets and what the military does is create a market in the real military so the military doesn't have to grapple with congress and try to make new rules so you can say we're going to get you seriously and it will be after the you know appropriations start to change and in the rest of it so eventually the military will create a fairly big market and obama's done

a lot to make sure the federal government itself and so on buildings and fleets are fairly large market too so it will start to shift once the economic start to show 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 there. well we have to remember that they're just enormous so people are still per capita was much poorer that us but there's an extraordinary about. long term growth that we seem to forget. well hopefully at some point we'll have to remember how to do that but the u.n. is already calling out to everybody the entire world that one point nine trillion trillion dollars excuse me a year is going to be needed just to try to keep up with the way of 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 the none of them money has been

realized yet it doesn't really seem all that promising unfortunately david thanks so much for joining us tonight thank you. still to come tonight now high a law breaker earnhardt's whole side award for his actions over a caught on dash cam video for the show that hit you in a moment and now we have our midweek edition of happy hour the t.s.a. says that terrorists are planning attacks by smuggling bombs into the u.s. inside of their bodies and waited for you here while it was right after this to go . into little or military mechanisms to deal with the 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. you

know sometimes you see a story and it seems so silly you think you understand it and then you glimpse something else you hear see some other part of it and realize that everything is or you don't i'm trying hard look at the big picture. let's not forget that we have an apartheid regime right. i think. either one well. we're never going to show their birth keep you safe get ready because of their freedom.

all right it's time for tonight's tools on award and tonight it goes to ohio state representative robert macklin bort he's a republican calls himself a catholic boy from the west side of cincinnati he's a hard line conservative married father of three during the current legislative

session robert had to be worried that a very private matter was about to go public is he back on the weekend of good friday april the congressman was stopped for drunk driving a wall in nearby indiana and the eighteen minutes where the video of an officer 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 robert was stopped because he had a headlight not working on his car the officer then start a series of tests to determine if he made the truck. yes well i think of you i mean i don't we don't we're. right here. so you do think you know why did i just be here that's all i don't care what the guy you know. he literally could not hold officers figure for several minutes and

then try to blame a poor guy walking across the parking lot for distracting it at the next as i also did and very well for the lawmaker. you know me well it's very difficult for a film and i think it's. kind of bad for women bad if you want them through just like ok dave ok. so what do you want me. to be telling people. you're going to be like i'm within the vehicle. basically. we're here on earth and the vehicle i thought when i began what i hear. that's right he couldn't follow simple commands that he wanted to hold on to the 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 back on board had already been placed into the patrol car is not the picture but you can still hear his voice. she go where

she wants to give her a light like the little girl when i think that you know we want to do something i will. say she can we. broke windows here are the important. now like i said earlier roberts a married father of three he seemed very concerned about the passenger in his car and it's probably with good reason for that the cincinnati t.v. station in 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 biography his system there is what a g.o.p. family values man gets caught with a stripper stripper in his car and buy agra and insisted 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

republican state representative robert mecklenburg of ohio is tonight's bull's-eye murder. it's wednesday and it's time for happy hour so joining me tonight is archie correspondent lauren lyster and ave morris and 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 a 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 entire attempts at the worst when many generations. just changed.

i don't know what do you think it's got to get right of a car flying off a cliff for training and breaking a very visual very action packed more action packed then on the ice are we going to capitol hill where they can agree or that do you think you better than tim pawlenty 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 previews or they're trying to one up each other i want to see all these movies i'm not sure i want to watch you can't use unfold but everyone with it 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 in a barrel roll you want to see i want to see that you know what i don't want you i don't know if i like this trend in the action movies i kind of like last year where we had the trend in the guns and everybody needed to have their homemade videos with the guy then you know it's not like you're on the run there are going. to do if they knock down your campaign so i had demon shiva it was really really cheesy you know they're trying to get a little more high class there's a lot in which he is you know she comes in like he's really not a whole lot of times it out and let's talk about obama had a twitter town hall today where he was supposed to take questions from whoever

wanted to tweet to him and his supposed to be open to everybody and then he got a question from this guy. the next question comes from someone you may know this is speaker boehner so there you go. after him working on a record speaking spending bridge. where are the jobs question mark and i want to know that these characters are his fault. so. his her job is that is to work out his type of skills do you think they think that i just they could make kind of banners typing skills i think though because they kind of set him up for you know pointed out that those fighting 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 risk. this economy is going after white house tomorrow couldn't they could find somebody who's not going there that abound all for people on twitter they don't get the opportunity to rush and the funny thing is you gets plenty of opportunities we think we realized why it was that he didn't answer anyone else's

questions because we have a few of you thank you but i think a president comes from dave weigel says that 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 the says 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 let you see the leadership. through me i was thoroughly entertained today with the theft of your coming up with our very own jenny churchill who worked on the show she had some really good questions that she was tweeting to the president of course i don't answer that's what anything i said sorry but as you read it 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 have to answer yours and yours so you know we're we're getting one of the speaker of the house where he's supposed to do ok so we call that a fail i don't know that i have twitter fail i clearly twitter town hall better than those ones that you highlighted were better than what. 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 is really another really scary thing happening in the world so more of your rights are going to buy later and whenever you travel around take a look. u.s. officials have new intelligence indicating that terrorists have discussed surgical surgically implanting explosive devices or components into passengers flying into the u.s. from overseas. i'll tell you the funny thing about this is that in our editorial meeting this morning we were like i swear we've already done this story and we went back and look there are stories and sure enough in february of two thousand and ten we had a whole story that we called. because i was there on. terror. possibly putting eggs plosives into their breast implants so i mean this isn't anything new i feel like the t.s.a. feeling like they're not relevant right now i mean to scare people again for saying that he needed to leak this story after the whole depends issue with the grandma so

they can justify that asking her to remove her depends that's a good point i hadn't thought about that at all i mean i sort of think it's going to be talking about always spectacular terrorist attacks when the one who was really successful while it was pretty spectacular involved boxcutters 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 grizzlies arise like the sharks that george soros is 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 with you know get less spectacular kind of a child i mean that's how we survive the body scanner is to go through right now the kinds of what your question is it is supposed to also i put all my shampoo away that's post you know she improved and that's the whole point is they don't do the basic obvious big things are focusing on a little thing. whatever while this is actually kind of funny speaking of how tight everyone is on planes because days there is a woman who was escorted off a u.s. airways plane today and deemed a security risk after she took

a photo of an employee's name tag philadelphia's international airport on friday apparently he. thought he was being rude so she wanted to do a snap a little picture that means he could remember when she wrote a letter complaining about it one of the things that we get to enjoy the american side of 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 we're 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's day was completely derailed had it switched lights a bunch of times you know it could all have been great to hear that if you would you would be able to do that something that made you men feel like you scared security risk get him out of my total get out of my mindset and i believe the one that finally. the power play out of this hour of appealing idea like other to my job like this is my play i break it to me it's appealing to be able to snap pictures of people who complain about their all effects are you thanks for joining me tonight thanks for trying to get admission you come back tomorrow professor mark

left me for standard from stanford university's going to be on the show discuss that letter that he and ninety other law professors have sent to lawmakers stating their opposition to protect privacy act i mean time to forget become a fan of a lot of calls on twitter coming up next is adam curse of the mass. wealthy british soil the sun. sometimes supplies in the mornings. markets why not. come the. why not what's really happening to the global economy with much stronger for a no holds barred look at the global financial headlines tune into cars a report. that.
