i would have to take issue with what rachel said ok first of all. there hasn't been free market capitalism in the united states for as long back as you want to look in the industrial era i mean the same argument that he's making about the banks being socialist because they have so much government involvement in their business activities could have been said about the railroads back in the nineteenth century they only got what they got because of government involvement in land grants and in financing and everything else so really american capitalism has been a process of using corporations using governments to basically socialize their their. investment and also their losses so. what's different here that's happening that i find as someone who has been a journalist back to one thousand nine hundred two and was involved in the any war movements dating back to one thousand nine hundred sixty six point given my age away. this is really different because any united states we don't really talk about normally about words like capitalism and words like revo

joining me now, rachel maddow, the host of "the rachel maddow show" on msnbc and andrea mitchell, nbc chief foreign affairs correspondent and host of msnbc's "andrea mitchell reports." thank you both for joining me. >> hi, lawrence, thank you. >> my pleasure. >> you have both been to iraq. you're our senior advisers at msnbc on this subject. rachel, your reaction to today's events and how quickly it became political. >> lawrence, i think you're absolutely right to point out this was the withdrawal agreement that was agreed to by george w. bush. it was a noncontroversy that i didn't quite understand at the time at the very end of the bush/cheney administration, that they associated this deal with the iraqi government in a way the iraqi government had to take it to its parliament, but the american legislature, the american congress was never consulted. this was just signed unilaterally by george w. bush. this was the deal we would have to be out by 2011. president obama certainly could have sought changes in that deal, but to go along with ending it on the george w. bush timeline, at th

hightower, thank you so much for being here. >> rachel, great to be with you.a joy. >> as somebody who has known and watched rick perry for a long time, has actually campaigned against him before, what do you make of his multipart comeback plan? >> well, you know, lyndon johnson used to say you can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure, though he used a little more barn-yard epithet than "manure." but nonetheless, that's what they're working with. it's not a matter of changing his staff, which he's trying to do. it's a matter of perry himself is the problem. i can tell you, rachel, that this guy in texas, he has put the goober in gubernatorial. >> is he a bright man? he seems to be canny as a politician. he's never lost an election, including running against you, and he's been texas governor for ten years, and texas is a tough state. do you think he is personally a bright person? >> no, i do not. and in fact, you see this oil plan that he's come up with, so-called jobs plan. he's touting the job creation in texas. that's a perry tale right there. one he ha

>> no, rachel.or ford is coming back to have the opportunity to consult with colleagues and officials in washington. we obviously take quite seriously the threat information that we've had and we want to ensure that he has all of the protection that he needs and deserves when we returns and that the syrian authorities assume their responsibilities to first stop inciting violence against him, stop inciting attacks against. against him ensure as they're obliged to do under international law that he and every diplomat have the protections they're deserving of. >> when we look at the changes that happened in the middle east in recent months, in just the past year, in syria, our government's position is that the assad regime should go. in libya our position was we would intervene militarily to protect civilians there. it is not a military aim of that intervention to replace gadhafi. the people of libya did that themselves, but with significant military help from us. we've also got a complicated relations
