carney looked shaky, did he not? >> did he. he is violating the every rule which he should have learned by now. joe is exactly right. should be getting out in front putting all of the facts out. when did they know and why did this get so botched up. >> bill: they are not doing that. >> not doing the crisis management. >> bill: so i have to lead with it on this broadcast which makes the obama administration look worse. wait, joe. carney gets two questions from the two toughest guys, tapper and henry. he looks like a moron. and we like jay but come on, jay, you can't say the president has full confidence in him. got to answer the question. >> he knew these questions many coming and batched it and so did carney. what does that tell you? >> they have to learn to get out in front of a story which is classic crisis management rule 101 and jay is learning the hard way he should have been fully briefed. >> bill: after three years would think it would be better than this. >> the real damage because they are not getting this is further d

carney machines. now look at his big house, and that's tim carney's house, he invented the tim carney machine. but what we're not getting and what glen greenwald's point was and i think really the point of the occupation, and the reason why the richest country in the world is in the streets is because the very principles of fairness that this country was founded on are being so explicitly breached. i don't think people really comprehend how powerful the dynamics of behavioral economics are, where it doesn't matter how wealthy or poor you are. if you are getting screwed by the guy sitting next to you, there's a natural human response to that. >> and it certainly doesn't feel like we're number one right now, when you have 14 million people unemployed. you have the top 1% controlling the income. and you're seeing a political class in washington that's fixate on all these other problems. they're talking about the debt, the deficit, talking about cutting social security, talking about cutting medicare, tal

carney stop misrepresenting heritage's position on obamacare and they wrote another editorial on their website saying for our occurred and hopefully for the last time we wanted to make it crystal clear to the white house that we think obamacare is unconstitutional and very very why it's so someone isn't telling the truth and it's a huge mitt romney in the white house or it's the heritage foundation but luckily for everyone here tonight i'm going to set the record straight i'd like to submit for the record this piece of evidence from one thousand nine hundred ninety. by the heritage foundation and titled assuring affordable health care for all americans which goes on to say many states now require passengers in automobiles to wear seatbelts for their own protection but neither the federal government nor any state requires all households to protect themselves from the potentially catastrophic costs of a serious accident or illness under the heritage plan there would be such a requirement. it seems pretty cut and dry carriage plan but in case the jury needs a little more convincing i'd al

it's all i can say is thank you jake tapper for actually doing that but how is a carney so incredibly unprepared how does he think of this is just going to slide over no one's been asked about it. flood's jaw dropping isn't it that he's that he's was unaware of all these things as the lead story in the papers for three consecutive days hardly an insignificant matter but let's go back and look at the way the white house has been managing this question and when the story first broke we saw unnamed figures in the white house on background telling people in the press that the president had decided to do this it was sort of a demonstration of how gutsy and bold the president was that he was willing even to target an american citizen and there was some description of the reasons rial also on background about a lot of information and when people pressed to learn more about it and get the information presented the way so they could be really cross-examined in question what you see immediately is the veil of state secrecy thrown up around it this is a state secret we can't tell you anything an

s jake tapper and of course jay carney white house spokesperson it seems to me like they also have been completely unaware or unprepared that they might have to answer questions about this please take a listen. once for the american people or has a judge been shown. i'm just not going to. go any further than what i've said about about the circumstances of his death and. decay. case against them which again you're linking and i think you said that he's possible for these things yes but again is there going to be any evidence presented . i don't have anything for you on that. not see it all is in this region and so you know how a president asserting that he has the right to kill an american citizen without due process and that he's not going to even explain why he thinks he has that right . is troublesome to some people. i wasn't aware of any of those things that you said actually happening and if and again i'm not going to address the circumstances of a law he's down. right so i can say is thank you jake tapper for actually doing that that be how is jay carney so incredibly unprepared ho

chief of staff bill daley said that this movement is his words not helpful on the other hand jay carney his official spokesman president obama's official spokesperson said that he understands that was the word he uses he used people's concerns how long before the president has to address either the the group in abstract or even the group directly. well let's be realistic the president doesn't have to address any of them no matter what you do he's only recently started addressing progressive's and that's only because there's an election coming up i really don't know what this president's going to do you has really not been there were people who put him in office until just recently and whether to be there for these folks it remains to be seen do you think that there are you know to seen a morphine of the name of the group from occupy wall street since this is gone nationwide to the name niners are you seeing clues of that or or any other name yeah i think ninety nine for certain is pretty much the problem sir although there's been a lot of people talking about on i would forget or just k

>> reporter: we'll hear from jay carney in a moment. he'll sell this as some major job creator. what they've said throughout is that there is no magic bullet here if you will, but they want to do every little thing they can to help cut some red tape to try to help businesses create jobs and create an environment that is a little better for them. republicans have been saying throughout the presidency that regulations have been choking businesses, that's why they are not creating jobs. they'll have that debate between now and november 2012. i don't think jay carney will try to sell this as a game changer but they will try to sell it as trying to do every little bit they can while congress in their opinion sits around. jenna: remember times when we get the estimates, a hundred thousand jobs, 20,000 jobs, all those targets. >> reporter: not on something like this. it's not on the sale of a $447 billion jobs bill. this seems like much, much smaller than that. jenna: it will be interesting to watch as they kind of come together and pass throu

white house press secretary jay carney is scheduled to hold a briefing at 12:30.e haven't heard if that's actually going to take place at 12:30 or if that will get pushed back given all of the reports that we're hearing coming out of libya. as you remember this summer, when tripoli fell, president obama came out and support to reporters and said the united states government now recognizes the transitional national council as the legitimate governing body of libya. if this is true, if gadhafi has in fact been killed, it would be significant for a number of reasons, in part because it would open the way for the tnc to move forward with that transitional process. it would also of course be incredibly significant for president obama. this would likely be seen as another foreign policy success. of course, he is credited with killing osama bin laden or at least under his leadership as well as anwar al awlaki. one thing interesting is that we're hearing senators come out, issue responses to this. senator mccain, senator john kerry, all saying this is of course positive n

and carney, carney is great. you can get a big laugh. he is great. host: tyson from palm springs, california. i'm outraged by the rules of law we do not have. where does it say mitch mcconnell and norquist have all the power. he is heading up americans for tax reform. he will be with us in the first hour on the washington journal. some other headlines, "denver post" is occupy denver and demonstrations there. front page clashes result in about 20 arrests. t "pittsburgh post-gazette." a blast killing 12 americans by a suicide bomber in kabul. the"the des moines register" ha new poll. cain and romney lead. ron paul is third. from the "chicago tribune," a story about immigration, across the border, beyond the law. law enforcement breakdowns make it easy for suspects to flee the country and live freely for years. a related story about immigration in houston drug wars leaving a allegiance of orphans as the narcoviolence means life with one parent or none and "boston globe" a habit of judicial leniency. and the richmond times dispatch on this the anniversar

one of the first questions he asked, jay carney said, i know you are talk about this republican talkings. and they weren't republican talking points. it was just a question. this is part of a long-term white house campaign against fox to try to de-legitimize fox because it is the most watched network and suggests that it's all republican talking points. >> i would think that they would be smarter, more clever about it. i mean, they sort of seem petty and -- the way they jab, of all people, ed. i just would think that if they hate us so much, i would like to see them be smarter about it. >> the interesting thing about this insdon't today is that of course, it's the president himself. i mean, it's one thing for the white house spokesman to be saying this in a briefing that most of the public doesn't watch. some of it's inside baseball. but when the president himself starts doing it, that just really kick its up several notches. >> it looks like they have fox talking points, the thing they accuse us of, they have fox talking points against ed. do they do this to other reporters? >> not in

jay carney was just talking about that in the briefing.being pilfered from warehouses. i remember these from ben weederman, the armories. you were talking about how they could fall into the wrong hands. terrorists, insurgents. what's being done to prespren? >> i think jay carney was trying to put a positive spin on this. we've been worried about this. and there have been people in libya at the behest of the ntc for several months trying to get a grip on the inventory. tracking down, cataloguing and securing some of the more concerning weapons. particularly the shoulder fired systems out there. but it would be incredibly naivete point to believe that somehow pretty significant quantities have not fallen already into the wrong hands. >> mike baker, thank you so much for coming on. we'll follow that story here on cnn. thank you. >>> next to mark kimmett. he joins me from mclean, virginia. and general, i know when you were at the state department your primary focus was arms in the world with gadhafi wrong, and i'm going to guess we don't know

own. >> that's he the former governor the individual mandate and we simply agree. >> mike: so jay carneyere singing your praises, but mentioned both the heritage foundation and newt beggingrich were singing your praises at the passage of the massachusetts health care. >> he's got a wolf and trying to cover it in sheep's clothing and it does not quite fit. not working well. the president's plan is not about the few people uninsured. he wants you to think thats what it's about. the american people know better. our plan in massachusetts caring for the 8% of population that didn't have insurance, for 92% in my state nothing changed. the president he's health care plan is taking over 100%, taking care of health care what doctor you can have, what treatment you can have, providers are reimbursed so a takeover by the federal government. that's number one. number two, he raises taxes by a half trillion dollars and helped to slow down the economy, number three, he cut medicare by 500 billion dollars. and only president in modern history that cut medicare, there's a pretty significant differences

but jay carney went on to say that no options are off the table but he did not give any specifics.they're focusing on bilateral and multilateral efforts. they're noting the effectiveness of the sanctions already in place, noting that their gdp growth has slowed significantly. they partly attribute that to efforts on the part of the united states and the international community. they've been out some sanctions on an airline. it has been known to transport members of this quds force. and carney also made mention of that force saying clearly, this happened at a senior level of the quds. >> thanks so much. >>> for more on the emerging details of this alleged assassination plot, i'm joined now by the nbc correspondent and tehran bureau chief who joins us in new york. also with me, the former u.s. ambassador to morocco and the former white house adviser to the middle east. mark ginsburg. in a piece for the "huffington post" today, you write that iran's paramilitary wing, the al quds, has a long history of being deployed in latin america. many people were literally taken aback by their wi

tavis: michael starr is a writer whose previous books include biographies of art carney and raymond burr. his latest book is about redd foxx, "black and blue: the redd foxx story." good to have you on this program. my favorite part was learning the nickname that he was given as a child. smiley sanford. because he was always smiling. i had no idea. what to do you think people -- when you started researching his life, what were some of the more surprising things about him? >> there were a few things. his relationship with morocco max. i got into it into the book how close they were done in harlem. redd foxx -- they were dishwasher's together. they ran together. they have a lot of schemes, they sold the suits off rooftops. they were very close. that was one of the things. also that he started out to be a singer, not a comedian and cut six r&d sites -- sides. tavis: when i discovered that in the ?, it did not surprise me because he was always singing. that did not surprise me. it is wanting to wants to be a singer and end up in comedy, happen -- when did he know he was gifted enough to be a

jay carney saying yesterday, quote, his responsibility as president is to have these conversations withle, to take his message out and explain the approach he's taking. and in this case, to urge americans to make their voices heard. there will be questions about other things, among them, the bureau of alcohol, tobacco and firearms fast and furious gun sting which went bad. sent guns into mexico. attorney general holder saying he didn't hear about it until earlier this year when e-mails indicate he was told of the program itself, though not the controversy, sometime last year. also questions about whether or not u.s. trainers will remain in iraq beyond the end of the year. there are indications they will. this is his first news conference since august when libya was hot. less so now. we still haven't come across moammar gadhafi yet. guys? >> gretchen: the president about to embark on yet another taxpayer funded bus tour as well. that was announced to north carolina and virginia, i believe, to promote his jobs bill. so will he be talking about how he's going to be selling this plan and wh

. >> reporter: earlier today white house press secretary jay carney also gave rick perry a pass. he said of the story, the name is clearly offensive, but from what i have read, the governor shares that opinion, too. but mitt romney, brian, was not so differential. -- deferential. he said, i followed the story from afar. i think it's offensive. i think most people recognize it's offensive. with regard to the involvement the perry folks had with the situation, that's something governor perry has to address. tougher words from mitt romney than the white house, brian. >> all right, chuck todd at the white house for us tonight. chuck, thanks. now we turn to the story that's been unfolding on the streets of this city and others. the movement that started here in new york about a month ago with a small group of protesters blaming wall street for the nation's economic problems. it now has thousands of people joining in and it's spreading across the country. nbc's michelle franzen is on wall street with the latest of the protests that have netted hundreds of arrests so far. good evening.
