north carolina has almost three times as many yards of offense as east carolina. outgaining them now, 302 to 101. this north carolina defense about as good as advertised. >> ray: they just fly around and get to the football. they have so many playmakers on that defense. and coach davis tells us, about a year away, he thinks. i tell you they're going to be scary coming down the road. >> pam: north carolina has a team, only has five senior starters. couple of them over on the defensive line. here is a squibler. picked up by dwayne harris. tackled down at the 25 yard line where east carolina tries to get its offense going against this stout north carolina defense. >> ray: let's look at some those defensive highlights from the first half. led mostly by the sophomore, robert quinn, number 42. he's been flying around making play after play. here he is with the sack. and he's picking up where he left off from last week. he's got five tackles for a loss. actually the carolina defense does. last week robert quinn was haled in the end zone, which forced the safety against u

north carolina with a 14-point lead now over skip holtz and east carolina.p had a legitimate beef about a penalty that gave carolina a first and goal on that last drive. we will let you see it in a moment. skip has been known to rip people on the sidelines. >> ray: yeah, skipper "the ripper" on the sidelines. i've seen him go after some folks and he actually maintained his calm pretty good on that exchange. >> pam: and he had ever right to be ripped. a little short kickoff, jonathan williams runs up. goes out of bounds around the 40 yard line. that was a 20-yard return. here's the east carolina head coach during the break. >> ray: skip's got a legitimate beef here. his player, c.j. wilson got blocked into the quarterback. hit from behind actually by elzy. it really could had been a clip on elzy and a late hit on him. you see right there. the late push. and t.j. yates took the brunt of it and they called roughing the passer, and that's why skip was a little upset. >> pam: when he was talking to the referee, ron cherry, who was right there and due through the

>> this guy, congressman from south carolina begins to heckles the guy. i'm like, okay, now governor mark sanford is the second most embarrassing politician from south carolina. >> republican congressman joe wilson's apologized for calling president obama a liar during his speech on health care. yeah. obama accepted wilson's apology and then invited him to appear before a death panel. >> what about a little bit of

south carolina needs better health care.get it, it may need some civil servants who are slightly more interested in getting that for the state. governor sanford considered just a year ago a possible presidential contender in 2012 led the fight to turn down stimulus funding from the federal government. shunning federal unemployment benefits when south carolina had the second highest rate of joblessness in the country. we should've seen that as a symbol. and that was all before he offered this fine moment in leadership. >> i've been unfaithful to my wife. i developed a relationship with a -- what started out as a dear, dear friend from argentina. about a year ago it sparked into something more than that. i have seen her three times since then. during that whole sparking thing. >> after that performance, the department of homeland security temporarily took away governor sanford's homeland security clearance. because they thought what the rest of the country thought, this man is not balanced. >>> and then there's south carolina'

the gentleman from south carolina. mr. clyburn: mr. speaker, i continue to reserve. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman reserves the balance of his time. the gentleman from ohio. mr. boehner: mr. speaker, i'm pleased to yield to the gentlelady from washington state, mrs. mcmorris rodgers. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlewoman from washington is recognized for four minutes. mrs. mcmorris rodgers: mr. speaker, i thank the gentleman for yielding and i rise in opposition to this resolution. i think the facts are clear. congressman joe wilson admitted himself that his actions were wrong and that he shouldn't have done it and that he won't do it again. mr. wilson apologized to the president and that was the right thing to do. mr. speaker, how much longer does this -- does if this go on? what are we really accomplishing here today? the president accepted mr. wilson's apology and both the president and mr. wilson agreed it was time to move on. just late last week the speaker of this house said, and quote, it's time for us to talk about h

. >> the joke is on south carolina. yet again. all that and more now on "countdown." >> oh, no, you did not! >>> good evening from new york. i'm lawrence o'donnell in for keith olbermann. on this date in 2001, this nation rallied together in the wake of the worst attack ever to hit these shores. eight years later, the pain of what happened that morning feels just as acute, but in our fifth story on the countdown, the concept of working together toward a common goal for the public good. in this case, improving access to health care, has perhaps never seemed so distant. congressman joe wilson's outburst at wednesday's joint address to congress in which he called president obama a liar for his claim that illegal immigrants would not benefit from health care reform appears to have become the new rallying cry for the right. at a rally organized by republican lobbying groups and attended by the republican leadership, once the name of president obama was uttered from the podium, the crowd, breaking into a chant of "liar, liar, pants on f

that's south carolina. and of course in one instance, it's not really orneryness but something that sounds like that. that is the problem. on that inauspicious note, i have the great honor of presenting our first speaker, someone who can bring us into the here and now of political scandal. the reporter who drove to atlanta and enterprised her way into the first interview with a palmetto state governor returning from what many of us thought up until that moment had been the appalachian trail but was indeed argentina. a proud cougar, a graduate of the college of charleston, and a south carolinian we can be proud of and look forward to learning from, we have jeana smith with us. everyone please welcome jeana. [applause] jeana, all of us want to know what was it like sitting across from mark sanford that day? can you tell us and share some thoughts? >> sure. i have to hold my hand to keep the mic on and that will be difficult because he talk with my hands but thanks. mics help me out. yeah, i -- best way to sta

what is going on in south carolina? >> something in the water. leaders in the state who say this is really within character, frankly the politics already sort of rough and tumble there dating back to before the civil war when a south carolina congressman burst onto the senate floor and started beating a massachusetts senator with a cane over his head. the first senator was called out over a slavery issue, really just a state where it is rough politics as normal. >> you have been farther than that you go back to the scene on the movie from "1776" based on real events we see edward rutledge, the democratic from south carolina, arguing the issue of slavery with thomas jefferson. >> to us in south carolina, black slavery is our peculiar institution and a cherished way of life. >> nevertheless, we must abolish t. >> rutledge ultimately did sign the declaration of independence, the youngest man to do so. when you have an issue where racial politics has been around so long, is it pos thain is what is driving maybe some of the stuff and maybe not particu

. >>> plus, it seems like a south carolina kind of day.ernor mark sanford today defended his decision to stay in office. but can he survive the ground swell of calls for his resignation this week by the state's house republicans? >>> back to health care for a moment. could bill clinton become president obama's secret weapon to keep democrats in line when reform comes to a vote? that's in the "politics fix." >>> and we all know it's a bad idea to text while driving. well, it's not much smarter to text while you're on national television. virginia's eric cantor learned that lesson last night and we'll have it on the "hardball side show." but we begin with president obama and where the health care debate goes from here. senator jay rockefeller is a democrat from west virginia and a member of the finance committee. senator, congressman joe wilson from south carolina, it's like a mandatory question being asked by every politician in washington today, what was your take on it? >> my take was that it was a very small, i thought rather rude, inter

brad miller from north carolina. mr. miller: i also rise to honor congressman bill hefner and i appreciate mr. kissell organizing this tribute tonight. mr. hefner, congressman hefner had a downhome style that never changed. some folks in washington thought it didn't really fit with their idea of what an influential member of congress, an effective member of congress is supposed to be like, but that was always their problem, not his problem. he never changed. everyone who spoke tonight has spoken of the harvestes, his gospel music group he continued to sing in. his political rallies continued to be gospel sings. that sounds something like out of the 1930's movies, but this was still in the 1990's he was doing this. long past the era that was dominated by political smart guys who led polls and produced tv ads and political rallies were supposed to be three people sitting in front of their television when a political ad came on. during that period, bill hefner was still doing political rallies that were gospel sings and

i was the carolina fan growing up. i know are you a dukeie. >> no, i was carolina. everybody, if you weren't a carolina fan than you were -- >> exactly, exactly. so i always said i wanted to go to carolina. one of his friends micrus el used to always tell me, are you too small. you'll never be able to go. so to one day have a scholarship offer from carolina, it was so fulfilling. and i remember i told mike, i said listen i'm going to wake forest but i could have went to carolina if i wanted to. >> why didn't you go to carolina? >> wake was just, it was a better fit nor me basketbal basketballwise. it was closer to home. and it a great academic school. >> tell me how did you it, though. most of us look at great odds and have great dreams. and some of us achieve those dreams surprisingly. >> right. >> my answer is always just hard work. you work harder than everybody else. and that seems to be the answer for most people. >> right. >> what was it for you? >> for me it was a combination of the hard work, but at the same time, i was disciplined. very disciplined. and my

if you are not investing in a place like south carolina, this problem will grow.e tried to make the pitch of them investing. we opened up an office in shanghai and the other office during this administration was an office in toronto. it is completely straight for to say you go where your strengths are. if you are in their neck of the woods and you can pick up something else, you do something. >>> there is an ulterior motive for what you were doing in argentina. >> if that was the case, that all the other places i have been around the globe, i guess i should not gone to those places either. the fact is that i was in eastern europe earlier this year prospecting. i was trying to say if there was something missing in poland that we should have. that is the nature of prospecting. i have been to many other places. >> we have a few more minutes with governor mark sanford. first, fast, and accurately from a team of news professionals. >> what are you doing with yourself in keeping busy aside from the rotaries? >> that is just the public schedule. for instance, we are on t

not just south carolina. we also have a senator in nevada that is a lot of trouble, but he is not up for election in 2010. i question is, i know you are conservative. i am conservative. but what governor sanford railed against president clinton, he is doing the same thing now. he had an affair. but in argentina. guest: true. caller: all of these moral values go aside when they are an office -- that is where i am frustrated with some people in the republican party. guest: anthony, i appreciate question. the thing i point out is that the most voters -- not all -- i think can separate the political party from the individual's and distractions -- individual's indiscretions. i don't think people will vote differently in new york with the governor's race comes along, based on elliott spitzer and what he did as a democrat. i do not think they will penalize the party for it because it happens to widespread on both sides of the aisle. i don't think they will label the republican party the party that cheats on their sp

there is nothing short of a very fishy situation in one north carolina river. an estimated 50 million fish have gone belly up in the moose river. officials say it's not over yet. scientists are still trying to determine the cause but say the large kill is likely related to low levels of oxygen in the water. >>> there were several clues that led a dui suspect in florida to the attention of police. first, he was riding his motorcycle completely naked. police report he couldn't say where he was coming from and had a blood alcohol level at twice the legal limit. he eventually put on a towel and failed numerous sobriety tests. >>> in california, a multimillion dollar house went up in flames along with a priceless art collection inside. fire ripped through the hollywood hills mansion as firefighters fought to keep it caped. among other items, the oer says the blaze destroyed a fab jay egg and art originally commissioned by napoleon bon part. >>> we now know the answer to the burning question, can supreme court justice sonia sotomayor do the mambo? sure, she can. they

especially in south carolina. and that frustration manifested itself last night on the floor of the u.s. congress. >> reporter: joe wilson's district is heavily republican. observers say an influx of hispanic immigrants in recent years has sparked tension over jobs and health care. tensions which had been weighing on the mind of the former immigration attorney. >> people who have come to our country and violated laws, we should not be providing full health care services. >> reporter: wilson once worked for legendary republican senator strom thurmond. >> congressman wilson is kind of the traditional south carolina congressman who focuses on keeping the people at home happy and when folks have an issue back in the district, they can call up their congressman. the congressman will take care of that. >> reporter: that's a formular observes say that keeps you in office in south carolina. since taking over floyd spens's seat in 2001, wilson had not been seriously challenged until last year. his opponent then, rob miller

joining us from greenville, south carolina, dean allen, running for general of the south carolina national guard. dean, good to see you today. 3. >> good afternoon, ma'am. >> okay. explain to me this very unusual idea for a fund-raiser. >> well, the idea may seem very unusual but the thought behind it is very usual and important. we want to show solidarity with the second amendment to the constitution. the most important right people have is the right to keep and bear arms. one of my concerns is our state guard is not properly trained and equipped and i intend to see that they are and i was told, well, there's a possible of liability if you arm the state guard. we're out here running civilians through a fund-raiser having fun on a saturday afternoon. we give them a ten-minute safety briefing, put live ammo in their hands. nobody gets hurt. people were coming up with pretty good targets and having me autograph their targets for them. it's not a safety issue, and all of our rights including the first amendment to be here and talk to are predicated on supporting the second amendment. that's w

this is from a little-known congressman from south carolina. you will. >> and it's interesting in the backlash included the fact that many people are making contributions to rob miller, the democrat running against him. i believe it's now around $200,000 in contributions. but on the other side, luke, you have t-shirts that say "awe lie." people are supporting him. the balance of this here, what's next for congressman wilson. he doesn't seem to be backing down. he pointed out he's worked on immigration issues and this is his part -- >> tamron, excuse me, 48 hours ago, which one of any of us among us in the media would have thought that a little-known congressman from south carolina would become a culture icon overnight? >> right. >> the right is infatuated with him right now. when i was waiting to interview him, we had people from operation rescue, from freedom check, tea party people, tea party patriots. the leftist fired up saying we have to get this guy out of office. this guy, joe wilson n. , in my opinion, i think has become the story, taki
