and even weeks of discord bickering a common strikes and protests. twenty years behind bars a russian pilot arrested in a u.s. sting operation in liberia is sentenced calls on the indiana shanghainese transfusions of the united states on charges of conspiracy to smuggle drugs and most cases he's the victim of a negro restaurant dishes. back into washington now for the sound of the hour you want to stay with us for that. all right it's time for you said it i read it take time to respond to my brilliant and engaging viewer comments from facebook twitter and you tube because when you've got something to say and listen now first on respond to a viewer who was commenting on my fireside friday right take a look at how the country was graded on civil liberties by the nine eleven commission ten years after september eleventh now as you can imagine that grade

well it was a failing one iraqi blaze commented on you tube saying bush said the nine eleven attacks were an attack on freedom that al qaeda was jealous of the freedom of americans post nine eleven the government continues to take away freedom through the patriot act etc how ironic and you know i have to agree with our viewer here that it is rather ironic that george w. bush came out said the reason we were attacked is because of our freedoms yet he and his administration proceeded to almost immediately started fringing on those freedoms in the aftermath of nine eleven and that's what ann and i just spoke about obama has only continued it now i don't agree with george w. bush with george w. bush that we were attacked solely because of our freedoms i think there's a complicated history in ideology which led to the attacks on september eleventh and just using the word freedom is a gross oversimplification what i do think though is that restricting the freedoms of americans in the wake of the attacks and continue it for in the next ten years is simply the wrong answer restrictions on our freedoms have not made us more safe

they simply made us our liberties fewer and our government stronger and i want to respond to a viewer who watched our tool time about a florida law which is still being enforced that makes it illegal for a couple to live together while not married. but on you tube g.o.p. is for smaller government when it means giving the rich more money or letting the corporations pollute our environment when the government is telling you where to put your blank can't say the word what to do with your uterus or who you can live with. then the bigger the government the better and you know i could not have said it better myself now obviously not all republicans are such social conservatives but take a look at the leading republicans for the g.o.p. nomination almost all of them fall into that category which i just find disturbing unfortunate they will preach and preach until the cows come home about how our government is too big and how this is a threat to our very way of life and when it comes to abortion and gay marriage they're more than happy to have government grow large enough to make it all the way into your bedroom if that's not of ocracy i don't know what is now finally i want

to respond to a kind of you or the show who commented on facebook rafi koori said the best t.v. news show on us cable is takes courage to be alone and outstanding producers and writers no fear whatsoever alone rocks the world well thank you rafique it really means a lot to me to hear is that kind feedback keep watching our we're going to do our best to keep bringing you fearless news and commentary as if my ranting today but i'm going to have more for you next week as usual. now there are new developments today in the capital punishment case of troy davis who was convicted of killing an off duty police officer. the convicted killer of a savannah police officer now has an execution date according to his attorney a judge signed the execution for troy davis today davis is now set to be executed somewhere between september twenty first and september twenty eighth. see after years of trials appeals and pleas davis is now scheduled to be executed in the

state of georgia at the end of the month it's a case that we've told you about before where the inmates accused of shooting off duty police officer mark mckay macphail and a savannah bus station now since day one davis has maintained his innocence but several eyewitnesses identified davis at the time as the shooter during his trial and he was sentenced to death however no physical evidence has ever been presented tying him to the shooting back in two thousand and ten a u.s. district judge heard from two original witnesses who came forward admitting that they falsely incriminated davis but despite the revelations of the several witnesses have fabricated their testimony the judge called the new evidence smoke and mirrors and not strong enough to prove davis innocence now last year i spoke with georgetown professor christopher chambers on the judge's ruling. here doing went through this weird these weird machinations and sent it back to the court not for a new trial but just for the judge to say hey prove to me you're innocent look at george actually supposed to be doing this what would

a reasonable jury do if they heard this you know this new evidence. now we should note that this case is grab the attention of advocacy groups like amnesty international the and. former president jimmy carter and even the pope that's a truly horrifying case where there is real evidence to cast doubt on the guilt of a man who is said to be executed in two weeks just another case which proves the fallibility of the u.s. justice system and while davis' cases gained international attention there's one group that seems totally uninterested in troy davis and that's the u.s. media despite the fact that davis has been fighting for his life since the early ninety's the mainstream media has consistently turned a blind eye to his case. the injustices of our judicial system in general so if more people knew about davis's case they could have stood up for me or at least raise awareness about the judge who sentenced him to death only on faulty eyewitness testimony but all those years they didn't do it and now it could be too late for troy davis. i think that it's safe to say that jesus christ may be the

most depicted individual of all time throughout the centuries the artistic version est roughly the same he's skinny he's gentle sad and kind but there's a growing movement both here in the u.s. and of the u.k. to change that to make jesus more macho more tough one ours has even taken it as far as creating paintings where jesus as a tattooed biker and a boxer so what do you make of this movement is it just another way to make relation sexy to try and sell it to more people particularly men or is there something else that they're picking up on joining me to discuss this is paul founder and president of the protectors of faith and values based solution to adolescent bullying and author of the book no more christian nice guy paul i want to thank you so much for joining us tonight now that you treat for starters let's let's take a look at why it is the jesus needs a make over in your eyes i mean what's so wrong with the jesus that we see now everywhere. will this idea that you was gentle jesus be could buy a suit it's

a work of fiction the record will be that the record shows a much different use we see jesus who is more emotional than those around him we see jesus who is tougher and more courageous those who are around him and we've made him basically into a labrador retriever and in doing so we've made. very unappealing but simply. not accurate he was he was top group than most people around him and we were called to be conformed to his image and if we think that image is nothing but gentle jesus meek and mild it's not accurate and it's not very well ok but so who's the we that's created him in this form do you mean the people the wrote the bible or do you mean the artist you have to take them a certain way for you could say hundreds thousands of years or is it modern society . yeah you know if it goes in about one hundred year cycles for example the y.m.c.a. the original y.m.c.a. was the young men's christian so she asian it was designed largely to create

a more muscular expression of favorite people like teddy roosevelt who was part of that movement and others it's largely the church the church has put out this caricature frankly of jesus but i'm glad to say that there's been a move in the last fifteen years to to bring about a more accurate portrayal but not necessarily trying to make a difference jesus which is trying to show the real one of history and is that a way to get more men to follow jesus i mean if i'm fine correct i believe there are more women followers are more women tend to be religious than men do. well you know it's a good point and i think that that or growth of portraying him more accurately without pandering to a group of people in our case what we're trying to do is just get to love you know martin luther king one of my personal heroes. if you would have tried to emulate

this gentle jesus meek and mild we would not have had one of the greatest american events the civil rights movement that simply electrified the world and so it really is an attempt on our for my part of some other people to bring about a more muscular expression of love as opposed to the current sentimental understanding that we have of love let me give you want example jesus was asked what is the greatest expression of love he didn't say give your wife twelve long stem roses on your honor to be. he said the greedy six for another bet is more marines than mothers and that's really what we're trying to do we're trying to create a courageous expression of same christ like so so this is what it's all about you just don't want to have to start buying your wife a long stem roses i get it this is a really good way to dock yourself out of having to buy women presents forget valentine's day and. let me play you

a clip of her and talk about this more masculine version of jesus this was something that was called porn sunday where we saw a lot of professional athletes earlier this year it was tied with the with the super bowl talking about their porn addictions. there are holes is my name. had a chance to play a couple years in a film my name is matt hasselbeck or play quarterback for the seattle seahawks no one knew that my problem is this sex is an awesome thing that god designed but here's how we designed it. so what do you make of that i mean do those guys look look tough or are they submitting to a. weak version of jesus who doesn't like porn. well i don't think it was going to come out in defense of who are obviously many many families who are to really does object. all the irony. oh you really yeah there's a lot of people that would come out and find

a point but go on. yeah i know well i mean i'm i'm going to go out to dinner tomorrow night with a couple and their marriage is on the rocks in part due to his connection or his addiction to porn not against sexual expression anyway super form have people should enjoy themselves but he really is writing a lot of these lines you know i think it's a great thing that professional footballers are coming out and speaking out against it because we live in a celebrity culture and there's a lot of cachet a associated with being an athlete and i think it's good i think it's great that they're using. their talent. to help other guys and hopefully find a cure to really push against that and take that sexual energy and bring it to their wife at least you know with a married man up there i paul and i thank you very much for joining us tonight i will see if this this movement this more macho jesus really does catch on maybe next time there's a movie out of the arnold schwarzenegger instead of jim caviezel plan of banks. all

right thank you. still ahead tonight fear mongering ahead of the nine eleven anniversary right wing congressman is doing it just that and he's tonight's all time when it then and happy hour a major clothing company is not happy that a mass murderer is wearing their line and what's wolf blitzer's proudest moment that and certain just lights up like that the moment.

wealthy british soil. mark. why not. find out what's really happening to the global economy with mike stronger no holds barred look at the global financial headlines.

i deciphered tonight's tool time award and tonight it goes to florida congressman allen west now the first term republican he's got a history of outrageous behavior and comments since arriving in washington this year he's a hard line conservative and he's not really a fan of gays women's rights or islam and in fact he has a habit of attacking islam and muslims on the regular he believes that islam is trying to bring sharia law here to the u.s. so as we move closer to this sunday's tenth anniversary of the nine eleven attacks congressman west is aside to use the date to spread more islamophobia say today here in washington the congressman held a screening of the documentary sacrifice the survivors the untold story of the ground zero make a mosque and let's just say it the film has a little bit of an anti muslim slant we found the documentaries trailer online today and this is how it starts. controversy surrounding an islamic mosque and cultural center in the works at ground zero.

this is not. this is and. it's as if they're dancing on the graves of. those that they killed. all right so as you can see the film is a not in favor of the planned park fifty one community center or ground zero mosque as it's been called in the media the film is produced by the christian action network and this group got its start in one thousand nine hundred with an anti-gay organization but after september eleventh they decided to focus on targeting islam instead i guess they just wanted to be the islamophobia trendsetters so i've got another clip from the film sacrifice survivors just listen to the rhetoric at this film uses. and he wants to put the real pump. and cultural center the way in which we have. murdered. almost three thousand to. build on what they call it on a pretty earth. and become to an area they don't molly should destroy it

and then right on it's a issues they build a mine. now i have pointed out numerous times on this show that you're realize not an issue here in the u.s. there's never been a documented case happening here but that does not stop the documentary from spreading out why and so finally here is this how the trailer for sacrifice survivors. got to see. yeah i know many media i didn't know. they all say they are. the real. thing. i particularly love the line that claims that liberals and muslims are working together in a secret alliance to implement sharia law here in the us i mean i think most people consider me a liberal but nobody ever informed me about the secret alliance i feel a little left out but anyway at today's screening congressman west took questions

from the media and just listen to his response when asked about racial profiling in a documentary. i think that another thing we have to look at a lot of people talk about profiling i've never believed in the word profile as a former combat commander in iraq we called it the trend analysis and i think that's where you need to focus your resources in your efforts. you heard the laughter maybe that's because trend analysis is the best euphemism that i've heard in a really long time i suggest that we just stick with profiling since that's what it is and that's why we're giving republican congressman allen west of florida our tool time award tonight for using a government building to screen that offensive documentary.

ok guys it's time for happy hour and joining me this evening is our correspondent christine for south and benjy sarlin reporter for talking points memo thanks for joining me guys. so if you heard my rant the beginning of the show i just find all of this he said she said somebody called somebody and has so be and then he called him saddam hussein i just find it really obnoxious and annoying because every time it's the same anger that's the hypocrisy of blah blah blah so i'm kind of excited to hear what we're going to see or what we're going to hear when people start figuring out that there is a tea party videogame where tea partiers are a zombie you can actually kill them take a look. right now i know the middle one was bill o'reilly did you recognize the other two in that clip i don't think was one of them i. can tell you whatever getting. there

michele bachmann i think what you guys think i mean is that going to cause and further zombies they're not real they're instead of like this is on your x. box this is some flash game someone came up with on some random web site and you know i love video games i love video games i saw this is offensive but as some of those videos i thought i'd try it it's unplayable i mean that is a terrible terrible bad game but i think a bad game twenty years ago it is just you know it's beyond it's understandable because it's too difficult or because it's just the gary rolls they don't work you try to hit something it doesn't hit it was missing bill o'reilly every time it just doesn't it doesn't work well if you were just missing bill o'reilly every time maybe because you couldn't get a meeting like the game or no it actually just really just laid out is that what you're trying to spare. i'll take i'll take your word for it that it's so i guess if you're going to have a tea party darling gave me something about it but let's not forget i mean every time i go to a tea party rally there's somebody holding a sign with obama in

a coffin you know like let's let's kill him with his own obamacare so it's like you said it's so much back and forth and least this time and not real people i think that i might actually have to give it a try to veggie since he went ahead and. did the testament have to confirm that all right let's move on to the next story here wolf blitzer god bless booklets or was talking to an atlanta radio host and he was asked during this interview what his proudest moment was and this is wolf blitzer right he's been around for a long time to even imagine all the people he's interviewed and all this time as well but he said that his proudest moment was when he was at the bt awards and he did the day so we decided that we just to have the proof of this to see what his proudest moment was and we found that it's not really that pretty.

i'll give the best thing about this too is that later on he said this is proudest moment because it gave him street cred i don't think there's any who who does this gives three credit and i don't think there's anything wrong with his i think he was feeling very new because he grew up watching soul train and was very excited to be considered hip or invited to kind of do this dance that all the kids were there and i think he was just having fun i mean it is weird that he said it was this is when i was. like the most boring guy in the planet so watching of the dude you're least trying you know there's always that point with any trend where you suddenly see your parents doing it i guess that's the end of it i feel like that was the moment for the dog where like all right wolf blitzer is doing it is that it's almost like you're sixty three years old sixty five years old and i think it's over. but it does he will never have you know another thing are going to. so a couple weeks ago we did a story here on the show basically the abercrombie and fitch was asking the cast

members of the jersey shore not to wear abercrombie and fitch clothing any more they didn't like the image that was projecting even though as we discussed here i think abercrombie and fitch has a few wires mixed up or something they're a little confused because that's like trashy young kids that where ever coming fish sorry that's exactly. customer but i think the only cost kind of has a better case cost is asking. to not wear his clothes anymore because he was wearing it when he was on his way to interrogation in a picture and he also wrote about the fact that it was his favorite brand in his manifesto and there we have there we have the picture is what he said is look costs have a case. i can certainly see why a low cost wouldn't want to be associated with this person i mean that's kind of scary like jersey shore's one thing when it's like guy that went on terrorist attack and like mass murder i definitely wouldn't want them representing a pretty gross but i wonder what they can do or if it's even worth raising attention i don't think anyone's going to assume that they're paying him

indorsement money or something to wear their clothing but it's it's all for you sometimes you just can't control where your products and there's very big things like a man who does whatever the heck he wants so i don't think that he's going to i think you make a good point because had they not spoken about this i wouldn't even know in his manifesto he wrote that like costas was a famous name that distinctive you know you see a black sweater you don't to be at least you don't look cos you have a little alligator but you're right i certainly wouldn't have known about it in the manifest all right let's move on to our last story here so there is a lot of conspiracy theories out there right that the moon landing never actually happened we have a video of the moon landing right now. has just released new pictures of symphony apollo moon landing sites and they show extraordinary new details about three places on the moon that were visited by humans. ok obviously i messed up that was the video of the original moon landing but now

a lunar orbiter has actually found human footprints do you think that's going to shut up all the conspiracy theories like we were there i don't know if that's because i want to just favorite theories is anyone run this by him or not you know i'm not sure i've i haven't asked him personally i mean the conspiracy theorists always come up with something to say well that wasn't real that could have been photo shopped on somebody's computer but maybe it will give them some to some else to focus on for a little while i think somebody else today made a good point about that just saying that see this is proof that anything anything we do any where we go as humans we have doubt we screw it up now there's a footprint on the moon there's it was we have footprint on the moon is it a footprint or like a tractor like a. moon suits ok it's almost lost a million years too because there's no winter weather on the moon to stay there so we really screwed it up over there that's pretty crazy last a million years can you imagine that i mean what what if they would have dropped a piece of gum or something there so they could. be the theory there i mean i

wonder how long a piece of gum would just lay in the moondust i'm sure the bell experiment will bring mcdonald's happy meals out next time and see how long they last well i'm assuming there's probably now there is there is moon rover tracks on the moon. it's crude it's beautiful shiny clean service is ruined forever are you guys thanks for joining me tonight that's it for tonight's show thanks for tuning in and make sure that you can that tomorrow editor in chief of reason t.v. and reason dot com nick gillespie is going to be on the program with the nine eleven ten year anniversary fast approaching we're going to have a discussion about how america's changed over the past ten years and whether or not those changes are permanent now i may be gone tomorrow but lauren lyster will be filling in for me and the meantime don't forget to become a fan of the auto show on facebook and follow us on twitter and if you missed any of tonight's show or any other night and he was catch you tube dot com slash the lot of show replies the interviews as well as the shell in its entirety we up next is the new.
