sweetheart now donald rumsfeld is releasing a book called rumsfeld's rules.i think it is about don't call the guy for three days after the date. it is his little witticisms, i think we have a few of them lined up here. but it is donald rumsfeld more or less got a second book deal. a seven-figure deal on this. phillip roth can't get a book deal. >> snooki got a book deal. >> john: it is really cute. i'm sure guys will buy it for their dads if there are no new clancy books. >> that's such a nuanced question. i think that that's like such a ridiculous spectrum. it is stunning. i'm going to start with it is stunning to go to a 7-figure book deal. i have no idea. >> it is going to be porn and he's going to call it "50 shades of denial." he's going to have s & m in it. >> i'll never be able to erase that image, thank you. >> john: i think that 600,000 dead iraqi civilians might take issue with his popularity continuing. i like that we mix it up. rachel sklar founder of the list. comedian yannis pappas, thank you for joining us. rosa parks refused to sit in the back

linked to al qaida such as libya sudan algeria and needs well i think it was confucius famously donald rumsfeld should be in jail for war crimes and quote well who's the biggest player in iraq right now iraq's oil business oh china right so. there's just no pretty well this twenty first century but china is tapping their resources but they're paying tied to the empire to the united states is the u.s. that controls that so that the u.s. is very happy for china to have the oil as long as they pay their share to rome in dollars yeah which are quickly losing their value which they accumulated by selling americans hundreds of trillions of dollars with a wal-mart so the team sent to africa our u.s. brigade that has the capable. to use drones for military operations in africa if granted permission not from the nations about to be droned but from their commander at centcom or africa or whatever i want to cause a report. from the show it only was like seventy five bucks to get one seventy five parts we can get a drone we can fly it around the city of london see what they're happening at h.s.b.c. now you

the her arrested methods used were proved up the government chain of command all the way to mr donald rumsfeld himself. president bush even called the actions by soldiers abhorrence a lot and even though eleven u.s. soldiers were eventually convicted and accused as merely a few bad apples no employer health services was ever reprimanded and of course the u.s. government didn't hesitate to continue giving contracts to the company. this is just the way it is with defense contractors are able to act with complete lawlessness protected by a veil of and purity and when they do get caught out right they can just spit out a few million dollars to quell the dissent and push the scandal under the rug after all by point two eight million dollars pales in comparison to the loads of cash our government awards them every year and yeah i guess it's great that a levin soldiers were held accountable and convicted for their crimes but let's not forget about the real criminal mastermind who is still running free mr donald rumsfeld. right. who are. you a. news . like oh my. goodness you've never seen anything li

that bill only passed because donald rumsfeld's pentagon weigh ed in and said the pentagon need thisotect the gun industry. what chuck hagel can do is help undo the damage the pentagon has done by pushing through a new memorandum that would say this really isn't something that the pentagon wants. obama will need his whole cabinet onboard to get this done. chuck hagel is someone we don't think about who could be a leader on gun control but could be instrumental in making sure gun control is something that happens. >> what would be the net effect of a memorandum like that? >> it would be a huge step forward for the pentagon in undoing what i call the unholy alliance between the pentagon and the nra. when this bill was passed wayne lapierre came out and said this is one of the biggest pro-gun legislation accomplishments in 20 years, and he was right. it did a huge amount of damage, the abilities of cities and straights across the country to hold gun companies accountable. if hagel goes forward and says, look, what the pentagon did under rumsfeld was wrong, we can start to undo that dama

government officials such as donald rumsfeld have admitted to cause the death of some one hundred thousand iraqis how that doesn't reach the threshold of gravity to warrant an investigation of this is warranting in investigations or is no investigation. when the camper was able to declare of the two months of what gaddafi did did indeed merit not only investigation but an indictment so it's going to be ridiculous to say well this this doesn't warrant it this does the same with in the case of the ivory coast the crimes of one political leader well these do indeed rise to the threshold of gravity but the equal crimes of the others who happen to be the proxies of france or nato they they they don't rise to the threshold of gravity clearly it's making these political decisions and so that's why i totally disagree with the idea that the world of justice is better than no no justice. is worse than no justice because this is a mockery of justice lawrence go ahead reply i think church is running together two separate issues i was a vehement critic and remain of the critic of the invasion of iraq t

when i walked into a hearing room and the secretary of defense and i get a chance to question donald rumsfeld about the war, i said this is unique. i may not be doing this forever. >> rose: so better make the best of it right >> that's right. i better -- i better not enjoy it i better luxuriate in it. it's a great privilege. being a senator is a great privilege, charlie. and it taught me being alive was a great privilege. i write about that.xd i was sort of more open in this book than i'd like to be. sort of let it all hang out. >> rose: what was the hardest thing for you to write about? >> well, the hardest thing to write about is facing my own mortality. the hardest thing to write about is wondering notwithstanding all my bravado and all my assertiveness if i was going to make it. >> rose: do you think you could have handled death? >> i'm not looking forward to the experience but i think i can and from what we know about human existence it's inevitable. >> rose: (laughs) >> so i will handle it. >> rose: exactly. >> a coward dies a thousand deaths, a hero one. >> rose: do you have a differen

do you think that the real people who oversaw codified torture john yoo alberto gonzales and donald rumsfeld shouldn't they be the one sitting in prison john think they should be the ones and there are others even if you just put aside the people who actually did the day to day torture what about the people who conceived of the policy and who implemented the policy where the attorneys that papered over it with with crazed legal analysis or the man who who destroyed evidence of the torture in the tapes he's enjoying a book tour right now and is going around washington giving speeches about how great torture is none of them are in prison and none of them will ever be prosecuted for the crimes that they've committed it's truly astounding i mean you're representing the two tiered justice system on the wrong side really showing the lawlessness the other impunity that the real tortures were criminals have are there gallivanting around the world selling books talking about their careers something that's particularly disturbing is that the prosecution along with multiple other people have said that

he just went to washington, wrote one amazing memo to donald rumsfeld and that ends rome. >> it was twoah. >> i'm sure the movie takes a good, long look at his war record too as a soldier and serviceman. >> he was a graduate student trying to make his way around having any responsibility for what happened in war, but rather just planning to make sure that other people go to it. >> right. there's another film that you saw, looks back at anita hill's sexual harassment claim that is nearly derailed the nomination of supreme court justice clarence thomas. what's the word on that project? >> the word on that project is pretty positive. anita hill's actually at sun dance right now. she showed up and went to a big dinner. basically, the story behind this is it's 20 years later and there was one documentary maker who called her up and said 20 years later, do you think you'd be amenable to making some documentary and anita hill said sure. the reason why is she thinks that people now who are becoming adults were just born when this started to happen, and to have an example of something at this hi

immigration reform or gun control or perhaps some kind of a fiscal grand bargain, but there are, as donald rumsfeld famously put it, the unknown unknowns out there that will shape the next four years. we don't have to go too far back into history for comparison. george w. bush takes the oath in 2001, his priorities were tax cut and education reform. that was dominating the agenda and the summer of the shark, all the shark attacks in the summer of '01. >> gary condit. >> and gary condit. the world changes and bush's presidency certainly changed on 9/11. >> his biggest speech before that was on stem cell research. >> yep. >> that was his first -- >> biggest month, that's right. august. >> stick around. we'll talk about the obama legacy. he's a two-term president. that's already a big deal, puts you in a pantheon of presidential history. let's go out to the national mall. hundreds of thousands of people will be gathering tomorrow for the swearing in. luke russert is there now. luke -- well, there we go. >> reporter: are we back here? >> there he is. luke russert. i hear you now. >> reporter: how you d

amazon's conference call had fewer facts than a donald rumsfeld speech. so what gives here? well, first, they can get away with it because amazon has virtually no competitors, which means when they want to, they can start showing all the earnings they want. they just have to stop spending to invest in new business. but like netflix and salesforce.com, the other two spendaholics, amazon wants to take over the world, that costs money. apple, apple's like a realist painter. winslow, homer, it's trapped in an unfair world of realism. amazon, it's an abstract artist. and its share price defies what you expect at conventional stock options. it still has the visionary founder and ceo. netflix, another high-flier, it has reid hastings at the helm still, salesforce.com, amazon has visionary beezos, and the price can be infinite, bezos, laughing all the way to the bank. apple has real competition from samsung. with an android operating system with the visionaries from google. sure the market's big, but samsung's beating apple in cell phone share and perhaps more important, apple's pho

donald rumsfeld prohibited anyone from using the word "insurgency" that would mean you come up with agency strategy and that means you have to stay there for a long time and get involved in nation building which was a curse word to him. and so it wasn't just rumsfeld, the army, they had a code. what was a war? a war is a major conflict involving tanks on tanks. in the latest military manuals before petraeus became commander this kind of war, a insurgency war was a military operation other than war. it wasn't even called a war. they called it mootwar and the joint chairman of the chief of staffs say that a real man does not do a mootwar. so trying to win over the hearts and minds of the people, in other words to recognize that the insurgency had a cause and there was injustices against the reigning government and you had to deal with the causes and build up the economy and make the government more legitimate, this is something that the conventional army had no interest in doing whatsoever until he came along and changed that. >> five years from now when we look back an the whole operat

and the notion that you can make war antiseptic is the same notion that was held by donald rumsfeld.e, and you certainly don't need as many people, because we have got technology, and we can divorce human beings from the notion of waging war when in fact, it is human cost that has to be involved and at some juncture some 19-year-old kid with a bayonet has to stand on top of the terrain and hold it. it is supremely interesting that the most recent proponent of the this way of waging war was donald rumsfeld. >> i have a problem of this thinking of waging war. what we are doing is assassinating people who in many cases we don't even know who they are. we definitely don't know what they have done or if if they are guilty of anything. so, we are killing them, and there's no due process and it is not on a battlefield, be but beyond that we are killing innocent civilians around them, the people that we refer to as collateral damage, and these include the elderly, and they include children and that sort of thing, and what are we doing here? this is not all right. >> well, bob, you know -- >>

when i walked into a hearing room and the secretary of defense and i get a chance to question donald rumsfeld about the war, i said this is unique. i may not be doing this forever. >> rose: so better make the best of it right >> that's right. i better -- i better not enjoy it, i better luxuriate in it. it's a great privilege. being a senator is a great privilege, charlie. and it taught me being alive was a great privilege. i write about that.xd i was sort of more open in this book than i'd like to be. sort of let it all hang out. >> rose: what was the hardest thing for you to write about? >> well, the hardest thing to write about is facing my own mortality. the hardest thing to write about is wondering notwithstanding all my bravado and all my assertiveness if i was going to make it. >> rose: do you think you could have handled death? >> i'm not looking forward to the experience but i think i can and from what we know about human existence, it's inevitable. >> rose: (laughs) >> so i will handle it. >> rose: exactly. >> a coward dies a thousand deaths, a hero one. >> rose: do you have a differ

[applause] >> like many foreigners, on january 11, 2002, when donald rumsfeld gave permission for photographs to be taken by soldiers of these men with their eyes and years covered kneeling in the caribbean sun, shackled, they didn't look to me like any recognizable form of the tension that was internationally acceptable. i realize the color orange that was prevalent at the time was more familiar to americans, many domestic, i didn't know that at the beginning. that sent out a very damaging message that the conservative daily mail in britain was torture from the very beginning. in britain, we then realized as time went on, the information came out with total locked down for the first two years. it was totally closed, the bush administration could and did do anything they wanted. you had no rights whatsoever. stories started to come from british prisoners when they were released in particular, they spoke eloquently, i got more interested and already began full-time working on this about seven years ago. was particularly motivated me was partly the united states that has such a prominent place

consent, president bush did better after what he called his thumping in 2006 when he finally fired donald rumsfeld, brought in bob gates and began to move to slightly more of a center position before the economy collapsed. >> rose: so what's the challenge for president obama in the second term? >> it's immense, brendan sullivan one of the great defense lawyers here in washington always says when you're in a negotiation and you have the upper hand as obama has had in the first term and may continue in the second term, when you have that upper hand and you beat your opponent you need to let them leave the field with dignity. and that is not obama's style. if you google "obama rebukes republicans" it goes on and on and on. he is always going after the people -- his beating. just a tactically i think that's a mistake and hopefully it will change. on the foreign affairs front if you talk to the intelligence people they say that the world is increasingly dangerous, you have meltdown situations potential meltdown situations not just in syria and the middle east, pakistan, north korea which has the bomben

eight years of a secretary -- or six years of a secretary of defense with an agenda, you know in donald rumsfeldwith wolfowitz. we saw what that got us in the bush administration, a lot of dead american soldiers and a lot of money spent. >> bill: what i find interesting and refreshing about this is that president obama obviously got a lot of flack over susan rice and decided that was not a battle he was willing to fight. and so when she said, i don't want any more -- any more to do with this, he said okay. i will accept. i am not going to nominate you. chuck hagel, he decided he is going to go to the mat on the this one. i think he wins. >> absolutely. how does he not win? you know, it's him reaching across the aisle. he is doing exactly what he has been attacked every day, district attorney in and day out for the last four years, you know, by republicans for claiming that he is not doing, which, of course, you know which is reaching out, working with republicans, taking one of their own, you know, and not one much these country club old school republicans that i think really make up the vast ma
