david and linda cooper each lost a leg when they were hit by a distracted driver in 2009. admitted that he was texting at the time, but along with suing the driver, the couple also sued the then 17-year-old girl who was sending the text messages. they contended she was also liable since she was distracting the driver, but the judge said absolutely not, and in his ruling judge david brand says the texts are no different than a gps device or a billboard. he said the responsibility to pay attention is the driver's responsibility alone, but admitted that americans are addicted to their mobile devices. they plan to appeal. the driver in this case was fined $760 and ordered to speak to area teens. >>> all right, it's your turn to weigh in on this. did the judge make the right decision? are texters just another distraction, or are they liable as well for accidents? i would love to know what you think. don't tweet me if you are driving. pull over or just tweet when you get home. tweet me at randikaye@cnn. >> we'll talk with one man who has turned his search for his father's remain

david and linda cooper were out on their motorcycle in 2009 when a car slammed into them.m lost their left legs. well, it turned out that the driver, kyle best, was allegedly replying to a text that he got from his girlfriend. and the coopers' lawyer says that makes her equally responsible for that accident. >> in this particular case, as unique as this case would be, there were facts, there were time elements, that bespeak the fact that she knew his schedule very well. >> deb is following the story for us. deb, this could really change the way we drive. and handle our devices. what are the chances of this lawsuit and will it go anywhere? >> well, you know, that's really what's so interesting. and that's essentially what a judge is going to decide over the course of the next couple of days. he's going to decide on friday whether in fact this should go to a jury. but the coopers are suing both the driver and the girl he was texting at the time of the accident. and the lawyer argues that even though the girl was not physically in the car, she was there electronically so that

i think what was more interesting last night, you saw anderson cooper asking david axelrod about theon private enterprise and free enterprise on a day he was having a fund-raiser with private equity. >> that may be the case. my question was corey booker right? he was creatively edited and was he taken out of context? >> he was edited by the white house who took that tape hostage after he spoke the truth on "meet the press" and when they didn't like it, they edited it down to a shorter version. corey booker is right. attacks on bain are nauseating. attacks on free enterprise for the past 3 1/2 years killing jobs and left us with 23 million people unemployed, that's what's nauseating. i think the fact that corey booker spoke the truth and white house took him to the wood shed and tried to take him out of context from their own tape they did, that's really the game playing going on here. we need to talk about getting back to focusing on jobs and the white house doesn't want to do that because when you look at the credibility of mitt romney as a leader, a leader in his state, a leader of

david, if you listen to dr. bri zbrzezinski, one could conclude you should give up on russia. that we'll never get putin to cooperateere to be another model, a precedent around the world, of a popular uprising throwing out a government, particularly with what he's gone through in the past year to get back in office. is there a point in which we say it's unworkable, it's unrealistic, there's no path towards getting russia to cooperate? >> no, i don't think so. i think that the russians have a stake in engaging in cooperation with us, but not on terms dictated by us. i think there's a very significant difference. and i don't think it's a foregone conclusion at this stage that the majority of syrians don't want the assad government to stay in power. i think it's much more complicated than that. in fact, the evidence of a national uprising against assad is relatively limited. we are seeing sporadic outbreaks with a lot of localized brutality. but that's not the same thing as a cross country civil war. >> david, what is your take on this? >> well, i mean, i hate to disagree with dr. brzezinski, but i think first that, ye
