darren gersh reports. >> reporter: the recovery ben bernanke is looking for will be a moderate one. the fed chairman is expecting growth of around 2% to 3% next year and he says that math is not good for the unemployed. >> the arithmetic is that unless the economy grows significantly faster than its longer term growth rate, it will be relatively slow in creating jobs over and above those needed to employ people coming into the labor force and therefore the unemployment rate would tend to come down quite slowly. >> reporter: one year after the near collapse of the financial system, bernanke pointed to signs of stability today. but the debate over the failure of lehman brothers and the root cause of the crisis continues. bernanke stressed that financial failures were a global phenomenon. as for lehman, he says the fed did not have the authority to save the firm. >> the company's available collateral fell well short of the amount needed to secure a federal reserve loan of sufficient size to meet its funding needs. >> reporter: that argument does not make sense to some analysts includin

darren kavinoky, do you see a pattern here? >> well, it's certainly possible, and it's certainly not beyond law enforcement officers to try and help out their brother officer by engaging in this horrible cover-up behavior, and if it is cover-up behavior, it's absolutely horrible. they may not get away with it, though. because in these driving under the influence cases, there are multiple factors that prosecutors usually point to to convict somebody of driving under the influence. driving pattern, field sobriety test performance, the way that they appear and certainly, refusing to take that roadside breathalyzer can be introduced as consciousness of guilt. so -- >> the defense is trying to take this ball and run with it, dr. dale archer. this is the lawyer for the officer who was accused of vehicular manslaughter and dui. quote, we embrace the results and believe when the evidence comes out and all the witnesses give their statements, it's going to come out that this was an accident, end quote. that this was an accident. they're

the whole idea of hajab -- darren, where do you fall into this argument.do you see they would say, you know, i would see people walking by my store. >> i think both sides have their point and this is not an easy one. it would be easy if we took religion out of it. clearly if i was an l.a. dodgers fan and wore my l.a. dodgers fat everywhere then abercrombie or any other employer could say, look, you can't work here unless you loose the hat. talking about religion, though, it does take on a different leaning and, clearly, this is going to turn on whether this is an undue hardship. i tend to lean towards the part of the employer who has a duty to its shareholders to turn a profit and the right to control that environment and abercrombie's business turns on this image of sexiness and, i mean, obviously they would turn down for a job just flat. >> are you kidding? you completely scream sexy. are you kidding me? glasses and bald head. everybody's talking about that. let me get robin bond in on this. because i keep wondering if she had gone to hooters, and was to

today darren from maryland says it is obama's politics not his skin color that has folks fired up.e attempted to radically change america's economic system to capitalism to a system where the government runs businesses and the business leaders become puppets to the government. this would cause if you fervor around americans. nobody wants to rush to judgment that this is a racial incident but a white congressman calling out a half- white president for being a liar and you have the nerve to proclaim that there is a racial component at play. another liberal race double standard. but craig from king george, virginia, says respect is the only standard that matters. the insult hurled by the congressman to president obama is neither the first nor is it likely to be the last. i feel now like i did when senator webb snubbed president bush at the white house. when we see president obama face such disrespect we can't help wonder is it a bit worse because of he is? that's really just a nod to a long history of double standards. and honestly to the fear that things haven't changed quite enough

they're confident in darren sproles. bennett will also get more touches. talking to the chargers this morning, they felt really good about how they were able to move the ball considering not only were they without l.t. but also two starting offensive linemen. they ran the ball better than the numbers indicated. so they'll sit l.t. and he'll sit if his ankle's not 100%. chris: how about the patriots, last week to see tom brady without his security blanket in wes welker and they lost to the jets, so now they get the falcons. are they going to have welker back? >> they're an angry bunch right now. the way you said it, you know they lost to the jets so you know they're upset in foxboro. wes welker, that was a weird situation, and weird patriots injuries that all goes hand in hand as we all know, but wes welker comes out and warms up before the game and all of a sudden he's just inactive. now, luckily for the patriots, they do have almost a carbon kevin: of wes -- carbon coip of wes welker in julian edelman. walker's probably going to be a game time decision th
