during the cold months in d.c. i spent weekend volunteering for the animal project in norfolk, virginia where peta's headquarters is located. we he drove around in impoverished areas where animals live outdoors [speaker not understood]. we delivered straw bedding to dogs chained in backyard or fenced in small enclosureses. we educated their guardians on how to properly care for their dogs, encouraging them to bring their dogs inside especially during winter and summer. we spoke to them about making sure their dogs had fresh clean water at all times and encouraged them to sign up for peta's free spay and neuter vaccination program. we also rescued abused animal. one of the things i learned working for and volunteering is how to effectively communicate people and open eyes to the importance of animal welfare. one rainy day [speaker not understood] we encountered a sweet pit bull changed to a pe toshibation a dog house with a heavy chain probably weighing 25 pounds. i was able to convince his reluctant guardian to rep

. >> the big talk in d.c. is about how big the veterans affairs department is. with some lawmakers now wondering how an organization made up of so many people that come from structured military backgrounds can have such a seemingly broken chain of command from the top here in d.c. down to facilities across the country. >> you know, you would think an organization that's made up of veterans have active duty military would understand how to follow orders, but there's definitely a letdown by the senior management team to the secretary and people under him. we don't have an accountability system or a chain of command within the veterans administration, veterans medical services and it's showing. that's why our veterans are not getting the services they should. >> adding to the outrage here in d.c. is the revelation that the one resignation at the v.a. so far, was set to retire later on this year. some are wondering why president obama hasn't been more vocal. >> we need the white house, the president, to come forward. he needs to make a statement to show the employee

>> i think clearly the american people have lost faith in d.c.ty or a place where problems will get solved. they've lost faith for good reason. the polls may be more of just a lot of american voters just don't know those people. rand paul or jeb bush. a lot of americans haven't yet been introduced. if you were polling how many people have favorable views of barack obama back in 2006 he would also have low numbers. just because people didn't know who he was. the premise that the american people are sick and tired the of washington and the people who occupy washington has been true for four elections. obama has been successful in two presidential elections. definitely in 2008, less so in 2012. you can have some faith in that. but once he gets to washington he's largely been a disappointment especially for the independent voters in the middle who tend to have the biggest effect on things like approval. the reason obama has been coming down since the last election has a lot to do with that. >> i think we tend to look at at least the senate elections

two, the question of whether it was directed by d.c.'t perceive the bureaucrats in cincinnati can't move forward until he they clear it with washington, d.c. so what jay carney said, maybe he was just misinformed was not true. that wasn't true that it was run out of cincinnati and there were these rogue agents. it was run out of d.c. everybody at the time said it. that turns out that it was not true and this email makes it clear. the bigger issue is the transparency issue. it's a year from today since the treasury report, inspector general report was released. these emails had been requested long ago. they are only now being released, once again, because of a court order. they're not being provided to congressional committees. they are not being released publicly even as the white house tries to convince reporters in washington that they are for transparency. >> that's an important issue. i mean, judicial watch pays the money for lawyers to fight these cases, and they do. and they get judges who make rulings. >> yeah. >> and this is ano
