>> when will you ever get tired of beating up on darth vader, who said nelson mandela is a good man. in the earlier segment, it was a complicated situation. the anc was a terrorist organization at one point. he has since said great things about nelson mandela. i like that what's been said about nelson mandela is said in the same way the pope said what he did. forgiveness and redemption. the pope's widely misinterpreted. and mischaracterized statements. it's active engagement. taking care of each other with solidarity and subsidiary. >> when you say about accusing darth vader, so to speak. this is not just about rhetoric. this is the policy that prevented the anc -- when they had the feet on the neck of nelson mandela -- >> he said, let's forgive. let's forgive dick cheney. let's forgive these people. i think one of the fascinating things about nelson mandela, he wasn't a saint. he made a lot of mistakes. he readily admitted it. he said, i'm not a saint unless you think a saint is a sinner who gets up and tries again every time. he changed an entire country and a world in what he said

sure, they were a problem in the beginning, and i like to look at them as darth vader, and the mask comes off and it's that cool old guy and you don't want him to die. wal-mart, they're not apologetic about it, but when they make a change for business reasons, it has an enormous effect and by-product. so my faith in wal-mart creating a new middle class exceeds that of the government doing it. they decided that the trucks going to wal-mart had to meet a certain miles per gallon. not because of the environment but they knew today save them money. and as a result, it changed the trucking industry overnight. if you don't make a truck that can go to wal-mart, you're out of business. as a result of that, we have more environmental trucks. wal-mart says, if you can meet as a company, the landing costs of competing in asia, and you put in the rising costs and shipping costs, they have the incentive for this to happen. and their customers are going to find that american things are more affordable when they're at wal-mart. so i think that wal-mart could do an enormous amount of good though that be

suing the own victims of their toxic dumping which is a level of evil like you've got to figure darth vader during his necrophilia years would be like dude that's cold all right that that's just gross you know it's insane i mean speaking of the two tiered justice system what are your thoughts on the two activists who were just charged with committing at terrorism a hoax for simply unveiling an anti fracking glittery banner why do you think the government cares more about punishing glitter bombers than the fact that fracking. quakes and possibly cancer. think you're going to hard on him here because look many people know glitter looks just like anthrax anthrax is very fast of and glittery and so i actually think they did the absolute right thing you know it reminds me of the scariest time in my life i was at my cousin a two year old's birthday party and someone brought out what was either finger paints or a semiautomatic weapon no one was really sure which it was and it was a very scary time pipe cleaners also look a lot like nuclear bombs that's right we should do i think if you. say they w

everyone from president obama to darth vader has been snapping them.ore on the rise of the selfie. >> i don't have a problem with the selfie. it is a natural human instinct to capture yourself in the way that you would like to be remembered. this is how artists use to survive. the walls of the met are hung with selfies. it's possible that having a camera in your pocket all the time has perverted a natural human instinct and turned it into unbearable human issa system, but if we are going to indict ourselves for that, we have to remember the role of the selfie. twitter makes you post one when you sign-up. if you do not have one on facebook, it will remind you. instagram is the house that selfies built. these are not clubs. they are companies, and they need you to selfie to make money. my facebook profile picture is me walking away from the camera with a child on my shoulders. these are just selfie ways to imply that i'm too cool for offies, but nobody gets out here alive. you cannot be part of twitter or facebook or instagram without making some kind of
