crocker terry colbert for general i can bear you know afghanistan because if there's a leak of bob woodward's book people go oh that i could very didn't think of cars i you know and ryan crocker husband ambassador to pakistan he knows the area and how he's worked with the military in iraq so i think that will improve the climate in afghanistan as well well since you mentioned ryan crocker here we had a number of news stories coming out of afghanistan and pakistan today first in afghanistan there is a. pilot who for twenty years has been a pilot who then ended up opening fire and killing eight u.s. troops killing a contractor and this is something that we've seen happen many times before either someone who has decided to turn against international coalition troops or someone who's been a taliban impersonator then the wall street journal is reporting that the pakistani foreign minister is now pressuring karzai to give up on the u.s. not really sure how he's going to do that and stick with pakistan and its ally the chinese so i do think the ryan crocker israel is going to be really important her

there are reports that obama has been somewhat frustrated with the admiral during the famous bob woodwardt about troop levels and certain levels in afghanistan in 2009 when mullen did not provide alternatives in the way the president seemed to want and it stuck to the single proposal of the military under general petraeus moving forward. host: their discussions asked about the secretary of state and her future. talk a little bit about her role with the national security team and what happens if a change would take place. guest: there were two positive surprises involving hillary clinton and the obama administration. the first surprise is that her relationship with the president has been pretty good, pretty strong. most of us who look at history and when the president appoints someone with an independent political base who is prominent as secretary of state that it is asking for trouble. without going back to harry truman and jimmy burns for another example, or powell's most recent example, he was a threat to bush people and did not get on with george w. bush and was not as effective as he

i was deeply troubled by bob woodward's reporting which indicated discussions about a war strategy were infused with political calculations. woodward also wrote of an administration that wrestled with the most basic question about the war. what is the mission? what are we trying to do? what will work? these are question that the man answers. i believe that americans of all political viewpoints can enbrace this fresh eyes approach for it is always, always to our national interest to openly assess the challenges before us and to chart a clear course to success. i urge my colleagues to join me in support of this legislation. this congress, both political parties, cannot do what this administration is doing. we cannot ignore this issue. i yield back the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman yields back. the chair recognizes the gentlelady from pennsylvania, ms. schwartz. for five minutes. ms. schwartz: permission to address the house for five minutes and to revise and extend. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlelady is recognized. ms. schwartz: for decades medicaid has b
