general clark, are we losing in afghanistan?round after all the sacrifices we have put together? is that why obama is so anxious to get the heck out of there, and is it going to cost us dearly because of this? >> well, i don't think we have ever had the full body of troops that we needed in afghanistan to do the job, even with the surge. we went into there under the bush administration and the idea was to do the minimum and focus on iraq. so we got started on the wrong foot. we just never had -- and it's their country, so we've done a lot there. it's time to come home. as far as the president's conviction is concerned, look, when he surged those troops, he made the best decision from a host of bad alternatives, and frankly, i'm happy that he was thinking about it really, really hard. he's not a high school coach cheerleading a football team. he's got serious responsibilities and he's got to be second-guessing himself. that's the kind of leader you actually have to have at that level. >> no, i get that. steve, let me go to you on

former general wes clark is starting a political action committee for hillary clinton.ou make of the hillary clinton phenomenon? is she really the front-runner or was her moment in the sun peaking in 2008 when one barack obama whooped her? >> it's very, very hard to know. i don't know any more than anybody else knows but i will tell you this. you mentioned liz cheney at the top. there's a deeper part of that story, which is worth mentioning. her social policies don't resonate with young voters at all. >> such as? >> such as her stance on gay rights, which was at odds with her own family. when i look at 2014, the big story isn't 2012 social policy issue, we're just totally at odds where people shook out with those policies. if will be crucial to see where the gop shakes out on social issues and gay rights and -- >> karen, they're going to be pro-life. democrats is the party of pro abortion. on the other hand, i think jake makes some interesting points and i want too get your take in it, especially on the ladies' side. how does the gop reach out? they're going to have bet

the intelligence element wasn't there and we regret mr. clark and mr. morell were not there. but mr. more ll, particularly for your ears, i think what we thought in reading the report and in listening to the testimony was that the group didn't want the program to continue. and then i read your op-ed piece in the wall street journal. -- excuse me, in the "washington post" and i would like to read parts of it and see if the committee agrees, if i may. several news outlets have reported that the review group has called for an end to the program. we did not do that. we called for a change in approach rather than a whole sale rejection to better protect the privacy and civil liberties of americans key values of our republic and we recommended that the government no longer hold the data and that it be required to obtain an individual court order, which i want to ask about, for each search but make no mistake, the review group reaffirmed that the program should remain a tool of our government in the fight against terrorism. then you go on. another misperception involved is the review

we landed at clark field, near branson airport. >> that's a big, whoops!t the county airport is nearly half the size of the one the plane was supposed to land on at the branson airport. that caused some big safety concerns. we are live in washington. >> let's imagine this for a second. you are coming in for a landing. the pilot jams on the brakes and the plane stops within feet of a steep embankment. timing was everything. the southwest airplane could have gone over that embankment and on to a highway a hard landing and the smell of burning rubber, two indications to passengers on southwest flight 4013 that something was wrong after their plane landed at the wrong airport. coming within 300 feet of a steep embankment at the end of the runway. >> it was a really rough landing. with he were all moving pretty close to the seats as we were landing because the runway, i guess, was too short for the plane. >> reporter: the plane, carrying more than 100 passengers was scheduled to land at missouri's branson airport but ended up about 700 miles from the intended d

such was the case with clark fish, who we met at the maricopa county jail in phoenix, arizona, while he was awaiting trial for murder. >> as a producer, it's challenging to find your characters and to find the important stories in a place like maricopa county with 9,000 inmates. so you're always looking for reasons to talk to people or things that might be interesting. in the case of clark fish, i came across him in a very, very unique way. i was walking past his cell and i saw how his socks had been folded and his socks had been rolled up in a ball with these little smiles. and as a veteran, i knew that's exactly how you folded -- were trained to fold your socks in the military. and so i said, were you in the service? and he goes, yeah, i was in the army. >> i joined the army straight out of high school. it was a conviction of mine because we as a family, a lot of males in the family, have been part of the service. and so i felt it was my obligation, and i was a health care specialist. i had no idea what it meant to be a health care specialist. all i knew is i wanted to do something
