there is no rhyme or reason there is no logic and if anything it just shows us two things number one the defense has such a tight grip on our politicians and the republican party specifically that there is no way to have an honest debate about what the size of government should truly be number two it shows us that there is no such thing as a binding agreement in washington any more let's not forget this was not a requirement imposed from above this was your own doing you were so dysfunctional the you had to make a deal with threats included with a trigger effect to force you into action and even that didn't work to scare lawmakers into being a functional governing body the super committee failed and so now republicans don't want to deal with the consequences of what they themselves have done so what's the point while the grandstanding why waste our time why are you being paid by the american taxpayer to do a job if you have absolutely no accountability for it and you know this really isn't just about one party we've seen democrats do the exact same thing but in this

civics an area see is just too blatant so i guess it is just another episode another week reminding you ladies and gentlemen of how your lawmakers work. time for happy hour and during the night and sacks producer for the big picture with tom hartman and now it's money from her to the hill with brokaw ok or roll calls on the hill about it. ok let's first of all talk about a story we talked about this earlier about some british tourists were trying to come to the u.s. turns out he tweeted something on the out there already they just took it all wrong . someone's going to come in a minute and say oh no sorry this is to this is stupid they say border patrol officers began grilling the about

a tweet lease sent to friends before their trip three this week for a quick gossip prep before i go and destroy america trying to explain destroy british slang for partying hard. according to some of our viewers destroy is also british slang for a number of other things you can do other than partying hard anyway so now i think it's like. starring apparently has sexual connotations as well. something kind of similar now happened to a canadian muslim who sent a text message to work colleagues enjoying encouraging them to blow away the competition at a trade show and basically that just plunged him into a terrorism probe he was arrested by provincial police on picking up a seven year old son at school the police officer storm into his home telling his wife that he was married to a terrorist and all of his colleagues were detained at the border for hours. but there it is just as crazy as we are. because we force them to be probably making

their own. candidate be as crazy as they want to be they don't have to write our coattails i'm sure just how important words are that if you would have just said blow the competition away it would have been ok but he said blow away the competition you know it's subtle switch just like if you didn't say a way and just said you know the cons. and we've got three other things there were only one of them. but this is also very concerning for those of us but whatever comes. first i agree. probably could be taken totally the wrong way i would say ninety five percent of this of a tweet is just probably shouldn't be tweeted but your twitter. and i don't know me . or ok so this story well this system various thing and takes us back to you know back to the kennedy administration and the bay of pigs.

again. and i want to really underscore. that meeting the primary obligation. what your haven't heard about me. all right so you guys know that overclassification has a little bit of a problem with our government and so they've been released seeing all these documents from the kennedy administration and the cia refuses to leak the last like the third piece and at a certain volume on the bay of pigs because they said and they apparently said this last year the national security archive is trying to fight them in court over it but it was too good because like they're still fighting in court they said that it might confuse the public and that was part of their reasoning for why i can't be let out i just want to say that most of the stuff the government does confuses the public it can use me and i cover them for

a living i have no idea half the stuff they're talking about everything should just be secret or everything you shouldn't. either a very good anyway well they were also clearly confused heading into that you know they probably don't want to reveal that they had no idea what was going on in cuba before that or had no idea on how to succeed in this stuff kind of point is there other thing is that it was a free to say you know document so they're like you guys we really don't want you know the crazy stuff this was his plan you know we were just sitting in a room trying to really sort of put a door. on a time and we know this kind of stuff they used to do back in the day when they try to like. you know we're going to say you are when he was scuba diving and stuff so i can only imagine. roseanne barr however cracks me up and he made it last summer she made the following announcement. my announcement as that i am running for president of the united way. i'm totally

serious really because i want to be part of the debates because you know i want to represent the taxpayers and i know that i'm choosing the taxpayers as my vice president. all right so everyone's been waiting for her to actually you know do some. thing with this and so basically she came through on a promise announcing she's going to seek the green party's nomination in two thousand and twelve and her official campaign slogan on twitter is vote for me i'll fix this. i can't save it. and so some of things she's going to do is make or illegal and legalize him change demographics of government and step three most important i will outlaw bullshit. i have a problem in their proper form because it already illegal we have this discussion today i think there's a million out there and be more specific because i'm worried that she doesn't understand me as. well i mean on the language i do it. yeah you're right it's all

in the language and i mean all the other people from that show seem to be doing ok what's her face darlene is like on morning t.v. if you're saying you think she's only competition with the view show or so you're right you're right i do not care about something that other guys on big bang. i love or that rely on averages and the president also are you sure everyone has been waiting for. me. to be the least likely person from that show to expect to be president but you know you know that's like it is the night record or it produced two governors so it could be anybody like if you were to ask who from the movie would go on to be governor schwarzenegger and would be the last two people ever that is going to whether it's very true i guess we never know so you know. let's move on to another story i mean this one is just causing a buzz everywhere and i mean really want to get into it until susan g.

komen foundation decided to back off of their stupid stance today and i don't remember what this exactly explains but take a look. this isn't a common foundation announced they'll no longer support planned parenthood the foundation gave more than seven hundred thousand dollars to planned parenthood just last year this reversal and the days long. that divided two major nonprofits within the last half hour this is a very common foundation not only pledged to continue issuing grants to planned parenthood apologize for pulling that funding in the first place. it's obviously has caused quite a fuss but what do you think i mean it's kind of like when you guys that was pathetic so you pulled it and then you got so much pressure and i'm happy that you are once again supporting planned parenthood but you just look that and that and there's nothing good about the color pink you know really push they're making handguns that aren't right maybe what we would picture of the handguns that they're trying to give you a back on their side so most of the special exploiting are gathered together to see

how that compares liberal so this week. i was like did you see one of those headlines though that was the said something like democrats control one part of women's bodies and the republicans control another part of women's bodies and i wanted to be like no stop get a step away from all women's bodies political agenda crowd control i do it i guess the democrats control i don't i didn't i very much want to go through are you going to run it out thanks for joining me that's it for tonight's show thanks for tuning in and advocate the comeback on monday i'll be speaking with the jilani about his new venture with jackie from in the meantime don't forget to become a fan of the one show on facebook followers on twitter there's anything you missed you can always catch it on you tube dot com lastly on the show and coming up next just in its.

news today. these are the images the world has been seeing from the streets of canada. showing corporations rule the day.

i am. russia and china vetoed the u.n. security council resolution on syria in a vote in new york. more than two hundred thousand people braved russia's bitter subzero cold to ensure their views on national politics are heard. we seem people out on the streets demanding free elections in support of the code russian government join me for more than a few moments. and europeans demand a free internet as people flood the streets in protest against an anti-piracy act being signed across the continent.

eleven pm in moscow as a good to have you with us here on our team our top story this hour russia and china have vetoed the latest u.n. security council resolution on syria let's get more from all the latest from artie's maria poor nial live outside the u.n. in new york hello marina so moscow and beijing made their positions clear tell us more. it was quite clear in a matter of just five minutes after the meeting began russia and china both wielded their veto powers not supporting this draft resolution that was written up by the arab league and european countries while the draft resolution was supported by thirteen members of the security council russia was asking for some amendments according to russian foreign minister sergei lavrov those amendments were not

excessive and mr r. lover of said that russia was urging the west to accommodate moscow's concerns to reach a compromise on this draft resolution china said during the meeting that it supported russia's amendments and said for the council to approach a vote knowing there was a divide it did not help maintain the unity or the authority of the security council if russian foreign minister sergei lavrov said that moscow does not support using the security council as a tool to intervene on a sovereign country that is experiencing an internal conflict he believes that could create chaos in international affairs so as we see there was two vetoes on this resolution it did not go through and it's because russia believes that as the draft resolution was presented it had a lot of imbalances in it when it comes to the current circumstance in syria

russian envoy to the united nations vitaly churkin did go into detail about those imbalances let's take a listen to what he had to say. but i. work in the security council has not yet reached its conclusion the draft resolution put to the vote does not adequately reflect the real situation in syria and sends an unbalanced signal to both sides the co-sponsors of the resolution have not in the wording of the draft taken into account that the syrian opposition must distance itself from extremist groups committing violent acts on states with the ability to use their influence to prevent such acts know will have on proposals being taken into account that along with withdrawing the syrian armed forces from the cities should be an aim is to attacks by armed groups on state institutions and neighborhoods nor has there been support for affording more flexibility to the intermediary efforts arab league states to increase the chances of a successful political process the russian delegation was forced to vote against

a this draft resolution we seriously regret this outcome of our joint work. russia's foreign minister is scheduled to visit damascus on tuesday to meet with syrian president bashar. this is a move. to hopefully reach some type of peaceful approach to the conflict. in syria the arab league has also addressed the media at the security council at the stakeout saying that they are extremely disappointed. over today but they will continue trying to work with the security council with the united nations to try to reach some type of consensus now u.s. president barack obama did also issue a statement of his own before the meeting began. that you know the united states is on the side of the syrian people that are opposing the syrian president and his government and he said quote the assad regime all the time has come for the. assad

regime to change clearly the united states is pushing for regime change this is a sticking point this is something that russia does not support so we'll see what takes place in the days and weeks to come but as of now the draft text proposed by the europeans by the arab league vetoed by russia and china all right i think were an important. well the vote in the security council meeting comes amid reports of a new crackdown in the syrian city of homes with hundreds reportedly killed for more on the situation in the country i'm joined by dr talk show more professor at philadelphia university in amman jordan so what's the out of the resolution has been vetoed what's next for syria well first thank you for inviting me. to. this vault by russian and china. is welcomed by the lot of people and truly it is in support of the sea of young

people. has been said that both supporting and. supporting the syrian people and the dignity and democracy in syria by the. poles like rush and like united states of america. i think that the both russia is what's. see the people in fact because what is needed now in syria is as. broad law saying to the hobby dialogue and the russian proposal to have a. dialogue in russia all the syrian fractions opposition and pulled up on monday. the same. stage and without any consent or any. conditions the syrian government has agreed to that

but unfortunately position lead by. i'm sorry and i'm here i'm sorry i have to interrupt you here russian about certain you want to tell you churkin is making a statement we're going to listen to that right now. capitols but i made it very clear to my colleagues that this is the only the only commitment to assume to send a text to the capitals moreover colleagues and you'll that on friday there was going to be a very important high level consideration of the entire situation including the techs in moscow so it came as no surprise to them that i told them friday morning that there will be a russian amendments and today as you know i did ask. but a present of to come together before the vote which was called by the sponsors of the resolution and i did explain the significance of those amendments and i did

suggest that we should continue our discussions for two or three days. as maybe the last effort to reach consensus presidential statement by presidential sponsored resolution in the security council as you know in practice of the security council if all fifteen members are prepared to sponsor it done it's called the presidential sponsorship a resolution now on the amendments were proposed and i think there were two key amendments which were also alluded to by my colleagues who were speaking before you one on paragraph five of the of of the draft where were did say that the troops must pull out of the cities in conjunction as matthew correctly. correctly quoted from our amendment with the pull out of of the armed groups who were trying to take control of various cities and quarters in various cities for

somebody isn't that a lot a lot of ground chose to tell you that there was a suggestion that they should be pulling first i have no idea i have no idea where he took that from this is one of the problems we face unfortunately in the council and in some call it is dealing with the media they they choose to. presented a rather bizarre interpretation of actual proposals made by the russian federation of the rice made the point that we're right trying to rewrite the arab league texts which were adopted months ago indeed they were adopted months ago and since that time the situation has evolved and one of the problems which we clearly saw was that when the syrian government forces were pulling out armed groups we're moving in so that was there was a need still is to address. that situation and of course there is no rule that the security council should repeat the resolutions of doctored bodies in organizations

you know but him they are not the qur'an or bible i mean we can we can express our views on the texts which were adopted months ago even if we are trying to facilitate promote and help the work of those original organizations now the second point about timetable and again an incorrect interpretation was given by one of my colleagues don't remember who exactly and that somehow russia was proposing to get rid of the timetable and that is not the fact that the timetable is referred to in the resolution except of that well all right we're going to your check back in with our guests now dr tarpley from our has been standing by as ambassador churkin is here so russia says the current draft included measures against president assad's government but not against the armed opposition groups why do you think that western nations fell short of condemning both sides in this conflict.

well because i think that. down deep down the western nations or russia and the usa and its allies want to have regime change in syria don't want democracy in syria because if they want democracy in syria they should have supported dialogue and they should have supported this arming of. fractions that are. fighting against the government because the government have proposed this new dialogue with all the practice in syria but unfortunately these are not negotiating with the don't want to negotiate with the government at all so i think because of that and because of the support of you that state police fractions they are taking it a step forward to. ask for regime change and they are insisting on changing their president i think such

a measure cannot have been taken if the united states of america did not support such factions in syria i think that the russian proposal for a dialogue with all the factions pro government and opposition on a. simple stand in russia in moscow would solve a lot of these problems one other thing we have appeared from such a vote i think which is very essential nowadays and this is crucial for the people of the third world countries where western countries are trying to play around in their well and in their future i think the vote of russia and china against this resolution give hope for the people of the third world country. is to say that we

again living in it do what. you need best not get bored universe and this give to fall for the people and for you but that future. without any as you may need from down unites. the. right doctor took from philadelphia university in jordan thanks very much for your insight thank you thank you. more than two hundred thousand people came out onto the streets of russia saturday for a day of protest the largest the capital seen so far one group was demanding fair elections others rallied to support the current leadership our correspondent peter all over reports on both. well such today was a day of demonstrations here in the russian capital we saw a march and a rally by opposition supporters a large group of them meeting in the center of the city and marching here to block my a square which blood night has really become the central focus point for opposition

protesters here in moscow this is the second time that opposition protesters have taken to the last night a square far fewer the this time than last but of course the the weather a big deciding factor in not cripplingly mode temperatures here in the russian capital in fact the organizers of the protest here shortened the events that were going to be happening just to make it more comfortable for people who had come out in the cold minus twenty times on saturday here in moscow. so they came out to to voice their opinions you know if you were i came here because i'm tired of the government which doesn't do what promises lies and wants this to carry on for you if they. change their elections and normal life it was because you might go through and want to come here and here you see it now talk about some

of those groups that we've seen come here they really come from all across the russian political straw answer we've seen far right groups far left groups and everybody in between. all coming out coming here to pull up the square to demonstrate we didn't hear from. the presidential candidate the independent presidential candidate because he's drawn a lot of support from some of the groups that have come here to protest he said he would attend but he wouldn't give a speech this wasn't the only demonstration there was taking place on saturday there's also being gatherings of people who are in favor of the government pro-government supporters. who has been campaigning saying that they want a revolution in russia using the example of the the orange revolution in ukraine and the chaos which pushes that country found itself in after last saying that they don't need not in russia they were stability and not the revolution saying that

russia had had its times of instability and they didn't want to return to the dark days of the ninety's now the good news for everybody concerned is just how peacefully everything is being carried off on saturday both the opposition and the pro-government protests going off well relatively without a hitch however one of the putin rallies we did see the leader of that rally taken into custody by police this is because it was a sanctioned dryly and it was sanctioned to have a certain amount of people the amount of people that turned up far exceeded that we saw a lot of police and she's they did say say protesters must remain within the law and they did do that and everything going off very peacefully is such a day becomes the day of demonstrations where the presidential election in iraq are just around the corner of the opposition is demanding a fair vote martin mccauley an expert on russia at the university of london thinks the process must be visibly transparent or further protests are to be avoided.

result of the election of course we're very very important because what these demonstrators want is if you like a clean election an absence of fraud and so on and it's up to the authorities to ensure that there would be cameras there and so on and therefore it's probably will be a fair election but what is important is that it seemed to be fair and that these people have no cause to claim that the election on the fourth of march whether president vladimir putin wins the first round of that has to be seen to be fair and to be clean otherwise they'll be tremendous protests on the level of about the opposition will not come together they don't want to compromise they don't want to arrive at a single candidate the only way they're going to defeat evil on the fourth of march is of a single candidate who is accepted by the whole opposition and there's no likely because it looks ready now these are gone.
