john, michelle, wayne.nd appeasing people who chant "death to israel and death to america" keeping us safe. you can't reason with something -- >> nothing keep us safe? >> no, the president should say iran you have a week to turn over the entire nuclear stock pile or we bombing you. flattening you. that's how you deal -- >> we don't owe them anything. >> thank god you are in chicago doing something else. >> they are the weak ones. we went in there and came out looking like the weak ones. the sanctions did work. that is why they came to the negotiation table. >> iraq war, they now dominate in the mideast. >> michelle, finish your thought. finish your thought. >> the point is that the most dangerous thing here is we legitimized them. now countries like china, they don't see iran as tokic anymore. they don't see them as toxic as they did. now we'll see, you are going to see china working with them. this is dangerous. >> quick thought, wayne. >> i don't see this as a black and white thing. i agree with bob, you

motives were, michelle coddle, that is, but i think it's pretty clear that michelle obama's motives to let her husband be president and to use this very critical time in her children's life to focus on children and children's issues. and i'm sorry, what is wrong with focusing on children's issues? i think we need to focus more on those. >> i am just shocked at jim's allegation that journalists would do something to try to generate clicks. >> you can't recovered from that yet? >> no. >> the take-away is we're here talking about so on some level it worked and stirred a debate, even though not the debate the author intended. thanks for stopping by. don't forget, send us a tweet about the show. @howardkurtz. we'll read the best ones later. >>> up next, kirsten powers in her first interview about becoming an evangelical christian. >>> there's a familiar phrase on fox news. kirsten powers talks about how she found jesus. i sat down with her earlier in studio one. welcome. >> good to be here. >> this is a highly personal piece, almost a coming-out. why several years later did you decide to

all three of them are with michele. >> michele: well, nick, a great win tonight after the loss last week. what was working well for you tonight? >> i felt our offensive line did a great job. they kept a clean pocket. kept running lanes all day for shady, bryce. and we played a team game. our defense did a great job. we did a great job on special teams. tfrs an exciting win and the crowd was awesome all night. >> michele: the run game was remarkable. close to 300 yards rushing. what did that do for the offense as a whole? >> it's huge. it opens up play action. we can go over the top. it opens up everything. runs down the clock. it's degrading to defenses when you can run on them. proud of our o-line and our team for the victory. >> michele: the last time you faced the cowboys you got knocked out with a concussion. how different is this eagles team from the one that you last played the cowboys? >> we've grown a lot. we've grown a lot together. we know when we win games it will be team wins and i'm thankful for this orgs and all the guys in the locker room. we'll enjoy this tonight and get

left-wing candidate michelle bachelet has been elected president for a second time. al jazeera's correspondent has the latest on the victory. >> she's back. chillie's most popular former president michelle bachelet elected again on the promise of reforms, so make south america's stable economy more equal. >> it is time for a new constitution, for a democracy this ensures rights for people, guaranteeing the future voice of the poor majority will not be silenced in the minority. >> michelle bachelet's personal appeal is unquestionable. >> i'm thrilled. michelle bachelet is an amazing woman whose thoughts will guarantee my son will study for free. >> rob matheson math. >> eu was clearly -- mathieu was clearly no match. >> the current government is making the point that it matters how you vote, if not a lot vote you don't have a mandate. if you don't have a mandate, you can't do the reforms you want to do. >> this will not be michelle bachelet's biggest challenge. over the last few weeks michelle bachelet told crowds that people have high expectations that they believe s

, justin. >> thank you, michele. >> al: michele, thanks. look at the playoff picture. new york is still very much on the outside on this situation even with that win although they do have technically a shot at it. seattle hosts new orleans tomorrow night and could affect the standings down the line. both divisions figure to come down to the final sunday. carolina and san francisco won today to stay ahead in the wild card race and two of carolina's next three games are against new orleans so they have a good shot at the division that includes next sunday night here on nbc when the panthers play at the saints. now let's bring in tony dungy from new york. tony, which nfc team impressed you most today? a lot to choose from. >> there are, bob. i have to look at the san francisco 49ers. they were playing st. louis. st. louis had been hot and the 49er defense played well as they always do. i think the big thing was getting michael crabtree back. you look at how that opened up the offense. crabtree making plays on the outside. not only the speed an

thank you, michele. worth mentioning that like colston, jimmy graham had two touchdown receptions among his six total catches. with tonight's victory, the saints have the inside track on the second bye in the nfc. but we'll know much more after these teams meet again in two weeks, although as al noted throughout the night, the tiebreaker belongs to new orleans. so they have an even greater advantage over the panthers than the one-game margin would indicate. even after losing today in san francisco, the seahawks lead the 49ers by two games in the west, and they can clinch home field by winning out. right now the eagles lead the east, and the lions lead the north. but tomorrow night's cowboys/bears game will have an impact on those races. so we bring in tony dungy from new york. tony, what did you take away from -- it was a remarkable day of football in both conferences, but what do you take away from today in the nfc? >> tony: well, bob, i would really look out for the green bay packers. as crazy as it so

and they stand down on the field with michele tafoya. >> michele: well, ben, with the win tonight you keep your slim playoff hopes alive. you looked like a team with nothing to lose. you were hot out of the gate. what was the mental approach? >> just win. that's all it was. come out and win and play this game. that's all we could do is control this game and out here and that's what we did tonight. >> michele: one of the reasons you did that you were really well protected up front. part of that was getting rid of the ball quickly. how did they keep you up right? >> boys did a good job. they identify well. they block hard and just really proud of the way they play up front. >> michele: and le'veon bell with over 100 yards from the scrimmage. what has he meant to this offense? >> she a great play maker. she a great compliment. he can do everything. i'm proud of the way he's grown. >> michele: congratulations, ben. let's turn to antonio brown. they're both freezing out here and want to get in. but you got off to such a quick start. the touchdown catch and the punt return for a touchdown.

we are socialing losses. >> michelle makes a good point. insurers are backstopped by the american taxpayers. when they did the numbers to see how much obamacare costs, they didn't put a price tag on this. it could be tens of billions of dollars. >> that is correct and they did not put a price tag on it. you are right. i don't think that will be the answer. the answer could be we go to a single pay system. so they say none of this works and as a consequence we will have to make these mailouts and we are going to a single pay system. that will be worse. the terrible part is it supports a theory that we have had that we are heed toward a fashist government. when i say a facist government i mean economic terms and not political terms. you have the government in cahoots with major corporations and major unions and they are dictating what the policy is going to be. >> jim, let's go to you. if i am not misunderstood you are in that little nest of texas, austin x texas. does anyone have any idea how much obamacare will really cost? >> merry cistmas

candidate evelyn matthei was no match for michelle bachelet. the real rival was the high abtension. the low-voter turn out a concern. >> the current government and the future position makes the point that it matters not how you vote. if a lot of people don't vote, you don't have the mandate. if you don't have the mandate, you can't do the reforms you want to do. >> that will not be bachelor's biggest challenge. over the last few weeks, half jokingly they were told that people have high expectations that they believe she can fix marital problems. they are afraid the expectations may be unrealistically high. >> free and quality education for all, to better distribution of wealth and now constitution. voters expect results. michelle bachelet may feel she has the weight of the world on her soldiers, at least on this night it was time to save our her victory. >> there have been reports of gun and artillery fire in south sudan's capital. fighting broke out in barr okays close to the city center. nagsals have been urged to stay ipp doors. >> a statute

"washington post" giving it four big pinocchios. now we see the president taking three of the top ten spots on that pinocchio list. michelle, the media love affair is over. what do you think about that? good for taxpayers? >> really good for the taxpayers. now the big government plans that the democrats and obama administration want to push through are not going to get through because the democrats run away from obamacare, they know it's a liability. we have the mid-term elections coming up. democrats won't get seats. they're vulnerable with the obamacare fiasco. >> john, plate effect started it off with the pants on fire. lie of the year. president obama earned four pinocchios, also the lie of the

"i think that people here will tell you that no one feels safe. a lot has been promised for security. but little has been done," this man says. investigators say the bombers' explosives were similar to those used in another suicide bombing on sunday at the city's main railway station.

michelle what about this?this is the first time since 1974 that majority of americans see this country as not powerful, as powerful as a decade ago. they are less respected and think that their country is not important on the global stage and the reason why is the foreign policy. putting obama care aside which is awful, a lot has to do with foreign policy. we saw what happened in syria the president made a huge mistake. putin provided a lifeline and our deal with iran. we came to the country as a strong country and we walked away as a weak one. he promised a immigration and great economy and affordable health care, we don't have that. >> there are polls that show majority of americans do favor the president's position on immigration, but they give him a low approval rating on the issue. is obama care is a blemish on every other issue that he is trying to do things on? >> it is probably at the root of the ratings problem. to say otherwise would not be truthful. but immigration is an interesting number. i hate t
