steve, your assessment of carney's explanation.peppered with questions from all kind of reporters today. >> he was and in part, to take a step back, that is part of the problem. you have reporters now paying attention to this because they have to. they haven't been paying attention to this for the last year-and-a-half. they're finding out this is quite an interesting story. specific questions and gave as we reported earlier in some cases very misleading answers. he's not the case that the justice department of the white house have turned over all the documents related to the operation of "fast and furious." they simply haven't. not the case this is election year move by republicans, they have been seeking the documents for more than a year. some of the things he said didn't hold up. this is also a matter of timing. eric holder testified in may of 2011 he didn't know, he had been aware of the program in recent weeks. the existence of fast and furious. carney today tried to say holder deserves credit for the program. the program ende

they say carney's alleged victims stole the money, and that when carney found out, he and his co-defendant, also a marine, drove the victim to a remote area in orange county, and shot him four times. >> when this case kind of blew up i guess i was kind of looked at as just number one enemy of the marine corps. you know what i mean? >> since he was in jail awaiting trial for the murder charge, he would not discuss the allegations. but in a separate case, he had already been convicted and sentenced to six years for dealing drugs to other marines. and that was a topic he was willing to discuss. >> i'll tell you right now, marines are going to do drugs. they're just like anybody else. you got 18-year-old kids coming in, college age. you know what i mean? some of them haven't even ever drank or anything like that in their lives. first time away from their parents. they're going to screw around, you know. and maybe it's not the best thing, you know, to be providing marines with that. not saying that's what i did, but that's what they charged me with. but you know what, if they don't get it from

>> the media decides the context and says that jay carney was unhappy with the definition of it. but i don't know whether the reporters ate their spinach or what's going on, but they were acting like reporters, what they're supposed to be doing, asking the tough questions and poor mr. carney just came in for it this weekend. >> the president when he made the private sector doing fine remark, he it was described as a gaffe and in fact, he even seemed to say the clip he played at the top of the program, is that kind of an easy out for what it was, and what he meant? >> well, that's the question. the question is, was it a gaffe where he just meant to say as compared to the private, the public sector, it's doing fine, or is this actually what president obama thinks about the economy? and so it's depending where you're sitting, you might have a different perspective on that. whenever a politician makes a gaff, they're saying the context, the context, the context, but, look, it's not the media's job to clean up his mess. so the idea that they are he' being told, you know, why aren't ar
