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 for like sleep you think you understand it and then a glimpse something else you hear or see some other part of it and realized everything you thought you knew you don't know i'm sorry welcome to the big picture . says. let's not forget that we had an apartheid regime right here in the lead. i think iraq is beatable and one well.

whatever government says there are conflicts safe get ready because of the air freedom. for fear fear for. such.

artis time for you said it i read it take 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 first i want to respond with you who commented on my fireside friday from last week by discuss the execution of a mexican citizen virtually all garcia jr in texas and h. t. hat zero five sat on you tube he raped and murdered a girl what sympathy does he deserve now like so many other people out there i think that this viewer has totally missed the point as i said during my fireside this is not about sympathy this is even about the man's guilt in the sickness of his crimes which has been recognised on all sides nobody is claiming his innocence this is about the united states holding itself to the same international standards that holds other countries to we demand and i mean that we demand the other countries allow our citizens to seek counsel at the american embassy if they're

arrested for a crime while in another country so how is it that we continue to make those demands if we don't offer citizens of other countries those exact same protections while they're here in the us it's called hypocrisy so yes this man's crimes are heinous no one is disputing doppler to claim that abiding by international law the law that we cite constantly when our citizens are arrested in foreign countries is giving a man sympathy a lot simply wrong if given a foreign citizen the same rights that we expect americans to have abroad plain and simple not to mention that in most other countries the death penalty has long been a ball issue that's something that u.s. citizens don't have to fear if they ever get convicted abroad and i want to respond to a viewer who commented on my tool time with michele bachmann for signing a pledge that involves banning porn in all its forms one of our viewers to bachmann support of this pledge and came up with a pretty ridiculous inclusion. seventeen at that on you tube this is why girls can't be in power. now obviously i think michele bachmann is crazy and her pledge

to ban all forms of pornography is absurd but i'm not sure what the hell her pledge has to do with girls being in power in fact the other presidential candidate who signed the ridiculous thread rick santorum is a man so let's just stick to criticizing these people for their actions and there is plenty of critique plenty of material but let's not criticize them for their gender and as for women being in power i say the more the better now lastly i'd like to respond to one of my more conservative viewers apparently apparently i'm offending him copy is necessary said on you tube god alone to stop dressing so provocative you seem as if you're attempting to seduce random event now believe it or not this is actually not the first view or is that an issue with the way i dress and while i thank you for your feedback i gotta say i really don't care i dress the way i like and if random men happen to be seduced by it so be it and that's my ranting that i am going to have more as usual for you later in the week. well it

looks like somebody setting a bad case of the mondays the hacktivist organisation anonymous sent out notices to their twitter pages today that something big was coming i said tweets like we've got some shiny things to start off your week with some lulz stay tuned for a nice release in the next few hours i was the puppets preview of what's now being called military meltdown monday booz allen hamilton government contractor was hacked by anonymous and just today a massive data supplied military information has been released reports say that ninety thousand logons from military personnel from the u.s. centcom in socog have been compromised so also logon information to the air force the marines homeland security even the state department lacquers also grab about four gigs of information from hamilton servers as well as a statement from a group of deals how easy it was to obtain that log in information it read we infiltrated the server on their network that basically had no security measures in place we were able to run our own application which turned out to be a shell and began plundering some booty so no juicy military operations or details

of surfaced yet for military meltdown monday but this isn't only an embarrassing moment they could also serve as a serious source of stress for booze and how that back in two thousand and six the company was put under the magnifying glass when reports showed that it had some questionable ties to the swift financial surveillance program and that's at least part of the reason that anonymous made booz allen hamilton their latest target let's also talk about the obvious embarrassment here once again a company that works on security for the government as about itself compromised because apparently they had no security measures or at least almost no security measures in place and the jury's still out on this but some people believe that some dangerous national security secrets could be leaked and say that anonymous looks just as bad as booz allen hamilton here i think we're going to wait and see and of course we will keep you abreast on all the latest developments. but ever since casey anthony was found guilty last. week the media has laid off the story

not entirely but around the clock twenty four hour make you want to bash your head in news coverage has subsided a little bit the public however is just getting started we told you on friday about a new proposal called caylee's law that's gathering signatures across the country public emotions still running extremely high following her acquittal on murder charges and four states are now considering new legislation called caylee's law so this creates a felony charges actually if a parent or caretaker does not disclose to law enforcement a missing or deceased child. and the a.p. reports that at least sixteen state legislatures are now considering some version of this law and it's something that we've seen before bills named after a victim often a child and no politician can dare say no to who will caylee's law really save any children's lives or punish irresponsible parents or is this just an emotional response a desire for revenge that's more likely to hurt rather than help our guest tonight

says caylee's law is a bad idea joining me is radley balko senior writer and investigative reporter for the huffington post the first starters tell me how many times have we seen this same cycle of a tragedy a trial that may go public and then response a bill with the name of the victim on it. happens. i don't know the exact number but these laws are pretty common in i think the big problem with them is that they're not really well thought out that pass on emotion and you know hysteria and there's not a lot of reason and thought that's put into a lot of pretty pretty nasty unintended consequences because when will to how many cases are there how many things could actually be fixed some legislation these are cases that aren't paying attention that they're paid attention to that there are not worth much in the responses to you because the media just it decides to cover them and make them a high profile case i mean i hate all these cases i mean where there's you know in

the o.j. trial to this case a case where you have a high profile defendant was let off and everybody thinks they're guilty i mean the laws that were already there but what they were accused of was already illegal right so people were upset that they weren't convicted so they passed these laws and they want to get them for something if we can't get her for murder it was enough evidence for murder when she got her for not reporting that the child was died of that she couldn't find her. you know the problem is that you know even that was already i mean there are already laws against lax already. she could have been prosecuted that prosecutors want to go for murder instead you know i talked to i actually talked to a medical examiner and you know one of the one of the provisions of casey's are. caylee's law is that it would be a felony if you don't report it was an hour shouting back with a problem there's no medical way to pinpoint within you know a minute you can't even really pinpoint within a half hour despite what you've made and you have seen on c.s.i.

the problem here is that this is a really important in the whole reason why they want to put our window i just knew it want to make sure the parents are or guardians don't have a chance to cover it up killed a child or make a mistake it's the child's yeah but there are also lots of other scenarios where you can see maybe innocent parents getting caught up in this innocent parents getting prosecutor. grieving parents and i would tell anything. really sort of ironic thing about all this is not going to prevent a single child. if you think about it if you're a parent is a great enough to kill your own kid or you really going to have your mind changed by the fact that there is this mosque that requires you to report your child's death within an hour of you having killed your child i can't think it just does make an awful lot of sense so this is going to be vanity it's more really about people being angry about the casey anthony verdict and that's just a really dumb reason to absent well do you think i mean you say that this is there are a number of scenarios where he can imagine that perhaps innocent parents have to go to trial over this do you really see prosecutors going after them if it seems like

a case where there wasn't neglect but it just happened to fall under this stupid piece of legislation well in the piece i wrote on this we're having a book i mean there are some examples you can think of for example let's say a child as a critic where the guardian or a babysitter had nothing to do with that but let's say the babysitter didn't discover the child for several hours because she was sleeping. you know making you know it looked like they were going for him downstairs you know that's bad babysitting right and maybe the parents are upset about that and they want something to come out of this and the baby sitter had nothing to do with the child's actual death well there's here's a chance for a prosecutor to come in and you know appease the parents and charge charged with babysitter with a felony even though you know any other circumstance she wouldn't really done anything wrong up and give a terrible babysitter so there are lots of examples where maybe the parents or the guardian did something because you know bad parenting or a bad way to watch kids there isn't a crime but now the prosecutor can some sort of come in and say well you got to

report this within an hour you didn't so we're going to we're to charge with anyway and it happens i mean there are there are lots of the crossings out there but also lots of prosecutors out there that's look for opportunities to grandstand and make a name for themselves and i guess my point is why give me an option right this law isn't going to prevent any children dying but it does have the possibility of being used why why process well how about why our to report that and why twenty four hour time limit for that they're missing i like in your piece you actually wrote about how did this woman come to the conclusions that they should be the time limits. well i mean if you look at the interview she did in c.n.n. she didn't offer any talking to law enforcement organizations in talk to any medical examiner in talking. to you know there may be a reason why you know somebody doesn't report of death within an hour maybe they're they're in shock maybe they you know they passed and you know there are different there are possible reasons criminality right somebody might not report the child

back quickly and i guess my point is that before you start passing this bill and you know it's already introduced apparently in sixteen state legislatures to sort of terrible i want to actually you know sort of talk to people who know about these things and so open it looks as a little bit. you know past need this is an anomaly but this case but if you're going to pass one once at least make sure it's sensible and it addresses the problems it's supposed to address but then i think that you can put some of the burden of course on the hands of the politicians and the law makers shouldn't they be actually looking into these things and not just going by you know what activists have decided to set these timelines on her own or is this one of those cases where nobody wants to come out to be soft on crime or for children being killed or dead without being reported. yeah well you're asking politicians to be sensible and reasonable and not stand up to public hysteria and public pressure and i don't have that much faith in politicians so yeah you're right they are that

makes two of us. you know they are the ones to blame and. they are the ones that more sense about all this. you know they don't so you know this is. my problem when you quote a victim's name on a bill it makes it very hard to oppose the bill thanks so much for joining us and it does happen a lot because right now we see just have a motion of responses and i should realize just station even being you know brought up and passed across the country with people who just looked up to reality. and they copy and paste that into the bell so. how do you say those are politicians these days thanks so much. just ahead about to protect marriage and corn plants to presidential candidates and still time segment we have our monday edition of happy hour he's running for president but he also has a gospel music album plus a restaurant owner bands children from his establishment after some of.

you know sometimes you see a story and it seems so. easy to understand it and then something else here's some other part of it and realize that everything. you don't. charge is a big. girl you are really good and yet though. fuck fuck fuck fuck.

let's not forget that we had an apartheid regime right here. i think it is even funny well. we're never going to says here keep him safe get ready because their freedom.

our decide for tonight's tool time award and we have a special triple winner tonight presidential candidates michele bachmann and rick santorum doing a little backtracking today now last week we told you the bottom of it signed the the marriage ballot declaration of dependence upon marriage and family hours later rick santorum also signed the document and his pledge was issued by the conservative christian organization the family leader in iowa and it calls for the candidates to be faithful to their spouse against gay marriage and to protect women and only women from the dangers women and children excuse me from the dangers of porn but adoption also had a really interesting line when it came to african-americans it read slavery had a disastrous impact on african-american families yet sadly a child born into slavery in eight hundred sixty was more likely to be raised by his mother and father in a two parent household than was an african-american baby born after the election of

the u.s.a.'s first african-american president really really is the family leader michele bachmann rick santorum they're advocating for maybe back to the days of the south to return the days of slavery a little thing called the civil war or civil war or not to mention all of that is grossly inaccurate from a historical perspective so why in the world anyone want to be associated with this group that peddles this trash is mind boggles me now over the weekend the family leader removed the line and bachmann and santorum both had to apologize i don't know maybe they should have looked at the document a little more in depth little more carefully before trying to appease the christian base of the party now sticking with the absurd we told you last week that it also calls for protecting women from porn and in fact they calls for a band of all forms of porn to protect women and children but there's one little thing that's missing from the family leader's pledge on born men they're not calling on men to be protected from. the dangers of porn i don't think this group really thought this pledge through if you only want to ban women in whole or in the

not just gay porn so now we have a christian group of actually encouraging gay people or who knew now i think it's pretty clear the family leader michele bachmann and rick santorum didn't really push my put much effort into checking over the pleasure for they signed it or wrote it and in fact it appears that they came up with this pledge on attempt to get some good p.r. and now they're just dealing with about the heart so for that reason we're giving all of them and i still time to work. ok the new week added a new dose of happy hour joining me tonight r.t. correspondent christine for sal and benjy sarlin reporter for talking points memo thanks for joining us now this first story this is something that my father would totally support let me well let the news clip introduce it all. one restaurant

owner has decided he has heard enough so effective on saturday he's going to ban all kids under the age of six from eating at this restaurant you know a lot of the complaints are coming from parents themselves of children who have been left at home with a sitter all for the couple to come to our poise it's a play that you haven't acquired that are being subject to someone else's rules to children so. now i actually find is that i don't know i just find it kind of funny because you're a little kid can be really annoying allowed in the restaurant and i'll blame people for not wanting to have them around but you know some people i'm sure would say this is discrimination but that's what happens when you have private business and they can do whatever they want i mean i totally agree i guess to an extent i'm split on the issue because i don't have children so i don't really know my parents and they took me everywhere because they thought i was such an amazingly quiet the hey you know well that we can't blame the children it's the parents who don't take the kids out of. restaurants when they're misbehaving that led this guy to do this

it's his own profit and i gave i mean especially like he said these parents who come in they've paid a babysitter to keep their own kids at home and then they can enjoy their dinner because there's other kids because their families couldn't afford a babysitter so now this just becomes a class war issue who keep right i don't know about every restaurant but i think it's one restaurant in town i would pay so much money i would tip forty percent if i could have the employees or if you go work in the day and know there's not going to be it's coming in i mean it's it would be useful i'm told i with you there that's why you know i like adult only resorts to where you don't have to deal with little kids running around and peeing in the pool and just making the whole place that's testing i don't even know you know growth actually children is getting hard time ok but how do the next story he know we hear from republicans a lot of stuff about terrorism about the laws that have been created in the wake of nine eleven and why they're important but this one really takes the cake this one goes really far listen to how mitch mcconnell actually connects terrorism and he's

the anthony. the legislation that we passed just three years ago personalized for the purpose of giving with foreign currencies are not american citizens which is fine with their caylee anthony case i difficult it is to go to come to trial and a u.s. court. that is the most ridiculous the logic i have ever heard for trying terror suspects in military commissions versus civilian courts because we just saw how our civilian courts don't work thanks to the casey anthony case actually if you look at our civilian trials when it comes to cases of terrorism those courts have been a much much more effective in getting convictions rather than the military commissions but i mean this is a search me i don't know about you guys you came to the wrong conclusion i think it was interesting was logic was going because we already are really trying terrorists in civilian courts that obama's pretty much lost out all we got was one somali and what it's not too late to start trying. to be

a friendly cases in military commissions so as soon as he introduces that legislation it will make perfect sense i know i was pretty outraged to see that connection being made and especially considering how many people it when you look at guantanamo bay a lot of people are put there that actually are not terrorists and they have to like weed through that and it takes years and so to make that connection it was just a little much for me and it also goes to show that he's fallen into the same trap that all the people who sort of paid attention to all the media frenzy surrounding the casey anthony case and thought they knew exactly how it should turn out of were so disappointed and that means that the jury system in this country has failed it shows that senator mcconnell has fallen is about you know his greatness nancy grace is what got into his head just like the rest of america she was wrong about the duke lacrosse i'm pretty sure that mitch mcconnell they would be a supporter of caylee's law which we just discussed with bradley except for he would take it even further not only would you get a penalty or a felony if your child goes missing in our report you also should be tried in a military commission i mean how does that just not make much of these old.

commissions should solve everything ok this one this is just that we are all blessed with today. broke on twitter in the middle of the day and suddenly i downloaded the album and i listened to almost every song and i think i found jesus this is a current presidential candidate for the g.o.p. who apparently put out a gospel album fifteen years ago take a listen and tell me if you think you know who it. did you get herman cain because he was already giving away i don't yes i didn't any of the c.e.o. of godfather's pizza i shouldn't have been busy overseeing his business is i well but he also thinks that you know god chose him to run for president and so he had to give a little thing there's a whole thing about jesus delivering to him so maybe that's how you need to connecting with people you know well and i'm going to give you some truth here nice

voice right now i thought that's really nice voice i wasn't sure about the bass line and they had this kind of old ninety's midi track set out that was really working got a good voice and his staff actually went out of their way today to tell me we didn't put this out there ok this is some fans of herman cain to get it out of love but we didn't put this on live as much as we enjoy hearing him saying so this is from about fifteen years ago this isn't just dropped the starts playing this it is campaign speeches i hope we just start hearing that herman cain gospel album somewhere in the background i mean it's better than some of the other tactics these candidates used to pander to the christian right i mean at least this is a sincere song as opposed to some wild the outrageous notions of the way america if you want to ban porn you just want to sing about let me know every jesus i'm going around that ok the world got some really bad news. apparently well there's a new strain of gonorrhea you might not be able to take medicine and. scientists

have confirmed with the world health organization that a new strain of gonorrhea resistant to all recommended antibiotics has been discovered in japan the superbug labeled h zero four one has been isolated in a sex industry worker and has left doctors with no other options than to administer untested medicines to fight it. that's. pretty scary and now a new new strain of gonna for which there is no medical cure but they isolated in one sex worker the kind of interesting but now this whole this poor sex worker has the whole world world on his shoulders his or her pressure i know i don't even know what to say about this i mean i actually didn't know that gonorrhea was still around but i guess like having this antibiotic that killed it made it sort of not around anymore and it will still get it but the point is that you can cure it if you just take the i don't know if the one sex worker took so many of those antibiotics that she got resistant to and that's how all these mutant strains are popping up as are becoming resistant to

a lot of the medicines out there and this is this is in japan gonorrhea something we're safer now so it will take a little while to get over to do you see i don't know a little worried you're a little where i'm a i'm a little worried you know the japanese embassy i don't know ok lastly really quick let's take a look at sarah palin who is on newsweek and says i can win it whereas before she was on the newsweek cover and called them sexist. hippocrates again what do you say i saw a really funny tweet when this cover came out and it basically said because i think it was the week before that the diana at fifty cover was out where it had princess diana and what she would have looked like in the tweet basically said something to the effect of the sarah palin i can win cover is almost as believable as the diana fifty. five seconds to the usa but eventually i'll give her some credit she was complaining about the bare legs in the first cover and they were out in the whole photo shoot where there are no legs to start maybe you shouldn't wear shorts then i don't know. that's just my take very good thanks for joining me tonight and here
