dr. johnson, will we be paying the people that we borrowed from in china the debt that we owe china, the biggest creditor or one of the largest before we would pay our american military that got caught like i did in korea, fighting the chinese? does this work out in terms of avoiding the payment of a debt that woul we pay off our debtors before pay off our military? is that part of this plan? >> welcome mr. rangel, no, i don't think these plans are very detailed, worked out credible plans. but yes, i have seen the notion expressed that the u.s. would pay its debt in the form of interest and principal on bonds, at substantial fraction held by the chinese government, for example. ahead of payments that would make of other kinds, which would include presumably the way that his friend, payments to active service military personnel, for example. that seems like a very strange notion. >> it seems to me if you owe anybody any money whether it was your country or your company and you are not giving the executive director of the authority to pay what's already been barred, that shouldn't make our

dr. johnson some questions. these programs that you pay interest on is the number one priority, i think every family would like to pay off interest. social security, and somewhere active duty military, and i think that is patriotic as well as political. under this scenario, dr. johnson, will we be paying the people we borrow from in china, the largest creditor, we will pay them before the military who got caught in korea fighting the chinese. does this work out in terms of aborting the payment of our debt that we would pay off our debtors before we pay off our military? is that part of the plan? >> well, it is hard to know. i don't think these plans are very detailed, worked out, credible plans. they are vague notions, the one i've seen. i have seen the notion that the united states will pay its debt in the form of interest on bonds, a substantial fracture is held by the chinese, for example. ahead of other payments, which include payments to active service military personnel, if example. >> it seems you owe any

so, johnson called up dr. king -- i urge all of you to get some of these tapes and listen to them. the conversations between king and johnson are absolutely priceless. and johnson said, dr. king, -- because king wanted to support this plan. he says, well, dr. king you have to make up your own mind of -- about who you want to trust, who you want to think is representing your cause, and if you believe you want to support this amendment and you trust the kennedys, god bless you. go do it. but on the other hand, if you really want to get this bill passed, i need you to back off. and they defeated the amendment. those were tiny, tiny examples of a pattern of two men who were not friends, who appeared not to be natural allies, who had many complaints about each other, and yet they managed to work together. at this point, in my opinion, king and johnson in their own context, were both men of the center. both of them, johnson used to say, let us come reason together. king did that every single day of his life. it was wonderful when -- back to selma -- whether to march -- whether or not to m

dr. timothy johnson. >> good thing he wasn't in texas when the orioles beat the rangers. after that game a lot of champagne in the locker room. if you drink a little too much we're working with you where tips on what to eat and drink. first thing first, rehydrate. drink one glass of water for every drink you had. sportsdrinks are also good but if your stomach is uneasy, try toast. . >> we with call the old l brat diet -- bred, rice, apples, toast, bananas, very plain food. >> she did not mention greasy food. hopefully you have christmas cookies left over. acookie may help calm a stomach. once the hangover is gone, you're faced with a new year. maybe you vowed to make changes in 2013. if you made any of the fog resolutions, chances are going you won't keep them. . >> weight loss is no. one on the list, quitting someone is no. two and learning to do something new o and saving more money also make that list of resolutions that get broken. tonight we want to know what you have planned for 2013. everyyear i do the same wurngs try to keep in touch with my friends all over the p

dr. jason johnson.come to you both inside "the war room." >> glad to be here. >> thanks, governor. >> jennifer: let me start with you, karl, why weren't they able to come to a filibuster agreement? >> because they like being lazy. no, if you think about it. we always talk about how they're not doing anything. this is them fighting for the right to do nothing. the republican minority has been the most obstructive minority in the history of keeping track of those kinds of numbers. that's nothing to be proud of. unfortunately this was a good example of certain senate democrats willing to compromise to get something done. >> as opposed to what they could get done. >> jennifer: that is the question. harry reid could have gone for the nuclear option and had 51 votes to actually do a significant filibuster reform, but he has decided to go in a different direction. jason, just for some perspective on this, tell us how that increased use of the filibuster by republicans basically prevents the senate from passing

sherrie johnson, abc2 news. >> dr. teresa fuller is the author of "change one thing." for more information about dr. full are's book, you can said to the website at abc2news.com and you'll find the story in our education section. >> coming up at 6:00, a joppa mother is clinging to life and her pib by is dead -- baby is dead. >> if you drive a toyota, you want to drop it off at the dealer. why the automaker is recalling more than a million vehicles. we have that story and more coming up at 6:00. >>> abc2 is in new orleans for the super bowl but we're also trying to help. we teamed up with the st. bernard project to assist two local families. abc2 news don harrison spent the day with them. >> i'm at home -- homework, cooking, trying to take care of business. >> reporter: cassandra scott has a lot on her plate trying to do she can for her family. she has in the lived in her house since hurricane katrina tore it apart in 2005. >> it was horrific. it's look where you see the line on this sheet rock, this is where we have water, so i had mold from down here to up here. so ev

johnson said dr. rice was purposefully misleading the american public. dr. rice said she was not, she was using the talking points used by the intelligence committee and no effort to mislead. she was providing as much information as she knew at the time. the other information by senator rand paul talking about the lack of accountability, how come nobody was fired. he said if he had been presented at time, and this is somebody who harbors ambitions, he would have relieved secretary clinton of her jobs, specifically for not having read all of these cables from on the ground in libya, diplomatic personnel requesting more security in the month leading up to the attack. >> she acknowledged an earlier question, she had not been fully briefed on the diplomatic security administration in benghazi, libya. i want to play a clip for you and bring dana in where she gets emotional a second time. listen to this. >> the two hardest calls that i made were obviously to the families of ambassador stevens and sean smith and, you know, i have to say, they were extraordinary in

dr. king did pushed the wrong button for lyndon johnson, you heard the tapes. you are doing the work on the papers project. johnson had some nasty things to say about martin king on those tapes. once johnson pushed those bonds, other black leaders came out publicly against martin. even if martin tried mightily not to take a public stance, at some point he would have felt compelled to do so. once he had done so, were he still around today, then what is the response going to be? >> i think you have to expect that those in power do not like people who speak truth to power. they would rather have flexibility that comes not out -- from not having strong grass- roots movements pushing them to do whatever things it wanted to. i think that, on some level, they understand that, particularly when we're talking about the democratic party and its relationship to its base, that unless that base is animated -- first of all, they're not going to vote in large numbers. secondly, the possibilities for any kind of progressive agenda are not going to be that great. something as i

dr. sam sewell johnson statement that when a man knows he is will be hanged in the morning it concentratess a result of that they had had a great deal of experience knowing what it feels like to think you have only a week to live. as a result, when they came home, they had a great deal of cohesion and loyalty to each other and reacted very nim billy to threats to their institution from the other services and that helped them facilitate their current position. jon: i think of the iconic photograph of the marines raising the flag on iwo jima. probably the most famous photograph that came out of world war ii i would think. did that kind of thing go a long way to cement the marines reputation? >> yes it did. it is the most reproduced photograph in american history. but the thing that is not well-known about that photograph is that it was taken by a civilian. this is really important because when people talk about the growth of military power in society, they usually focus on the military's role in facilitating its public image. in fact the marines were very successful creating civil military a

dr. richard freedman, a psychiatrist at the cornell medical college. gail trotter, a senior fellow at the women's forum, baltimore county police jim johnson, the chair of the national law enforcement partnership to prevent gun violence. he also testified today. dr. freedman, i want us to listen to something that senator franken said today. >> i want to be careful that we don't stigmatize mental illness. the vast majority of people with mental illness are no more violent than the rest of the population, in fact, they're more likely to be the victims. >> doctor, you wrote a piece about this. you pointed out that the shooter in newtown, connecticut was not psychotic, did not exhibit symptoms that a medical health care professional could have reasonably used in an evaluation that would somehow have prevented him from ever getting his hands on his mother's weapons. what can we reasonably expect from the mental health system in this arena? and what can we not reasonably expect? >> well, lawrence i think to answer that question it is important for viewers to understand that the vast majority of people with mental illness are not violent. in fact, people with

dr. robinson? >> thank you. mr. hank johnson. >> thank you.my condolences to doctors robinson and nottingham and also to the representatives from the virginia shooting. my sincere condolences. we live in a culture of violence. the question is, how do we change from a culture of violence into a culture of education and a culture of peacefulness? it takes money. we in congress have that ability. preventing mass shootings by way of banning assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, certainly something that we should do. we need to get at the issue of violence that affects us with respect to handguns used primarily in inner city areas to kill people. i'm not advocating for a ban on handguns. don't get me wrong. but i will say we need to address the issue of violence in our culture. and i'd like to know what kinds of resources are available to help students and to help people in the community, adults, who have emotional or mental disorders and whether or not we need to put more resources into that area. >> thank you, hank. susan davis. >> thank y

dr. king marched on washington and lyndon johnson was laying the groundwork for the famous civil rights acthat would open the doors for minorities. but the very first bill that he introduced was to guarantee equal pay for equal work for women. he did that as the first bill because he thought tha that woue one of the easiest to pass. well, 50 years later we are still being redlined, sidelined, pink slipped because we fight for equal pay for equal work. and every time we make an advance, they bring in "the lawyers." the corporate lawyers who then hide behind small business exemption, they fret on how it will wreck the economy of the united states. well, you know what would wreck the economy of the united states, and at that wasn't women wanting equal pay for equal work. that's not what brought us fraud, scams, and greed in the mortgage market. that's not cause of the great collapse of the banks. we didn't cause that. they are hubris and greed did. but when they bring in the lawyers, we have to pass this legislation as a time. now four years ago was the first bill passed during the obama admin

johnson. so i think unfortunately history becomes political, and we pick and choose what we refer to emphasize, but drradual. he was slow to come to an open stance. he knew what the stakes were. he wasn't unaware. he wasn't innocent. he knew he would have trouble taking that position, and he took it forthrightly, and proudly, and stayed with it. >> john: kris let me ask you the same question. do you think that another great tragedy of dr. king's loss is he's only remembered as a civil rights icon and not as a non-violent resistence icon or labor rights icon. >> he's so much bigger than the box we tend to put him in. in some of those speeches, in the antiwar speeches he was talking about moving beyond tribe, race, class and nation. that's the kind of radical internationalism that we really don't talk about. even president obama's speech today he's saying we're really loyal not to party but to nations. well, king went far beyond that and say we're not loyal to nations. we're loyal to god. we're loyal to humanity as a whole. i find listening to those speeches today, they were extremely radical. >> john:

magic johnson, nicholas hoult, and antibalas are standing by. 2013 has been a big year for televised confessions so far. thursday and friday, drwo-part interview with the guy behind the manti te'o girlfriend hoax. his name is ronaiah tuiasosopo. everyone chose dr. phil as the person to whom he would confess, which is a bad idea. [ laughter ] dr. phil never wants to interview you because your life is going well. if you're not familiar with the story, he went online, pretended to be a woman, started a relationship with a college football player. went on for years. even made manti think the fake girlfriend died and then came back to life and he believed -- the more i learn about this, the less i understand this. but dr. phil was on the "today" show this morning to promote the interview, and explained the motivation behind this diabolical scheme. >> here we have a young man that fell deeply romantically in love. >> does he say that? >> i asked him straight up, was this a romantic relationship with you? and he says "yes." i said are you then, therefore, ga gay? he said well, when you put it that way, yes. >> jimmy: what other way c

dr. king you've got to say you had a purpose. let's say that you're coming out of jail to meet with the president. and that infuriated lyndon johnson because he said nobody in the expense of here in the middle of a controversy. i'm trying to run the country. but on the matter and, he didn't want to say i won't meet with dr. martin luther king partly because he shared the goal of cutting the voting rights bill. so with the work of was kind of an ego where they said dr. king was officially coming up to meet with the vice president, but they planned to have the president spontaneously call over there and say since you're here what don't you come over and talk to me? so there was a way of dancing around the ego and the political sensitivities on the race issue in this period. c-span: you also told a story about richard russell and lyndon johnson and the warren commission. >> guest: there were lots of those. i have one of the first photographs there as president johnson with his knows about this far away from richard russell, right after he becomes president, telling him you know, i love you. i don't know the exact quote, but you're lik

johnson, jr. judicial watch is suing to see the pictures. >> they're suing to see the pictures is an argument in the u.s. circuit court of appeals for the dring blow that judicial watch does not have a right to see those 52 images of osama bin laden at the time of his capture and killing. they're saying these are gruesome. that they will inflame the world, that they're top secret under the law, that they're classified and that under c.i.a. law, they don't need to justify it at all. they say nope. top secret. we're not giving it to you. judicial watch in the past has done a lot of these lawsuits to bring sunshine on important public issues and get things brought out to the public to know. it's a good question and i happen to side with the c.i.a. on this one saying, what do we gain out of this? the c.i.a. is putting out a 27-page affidavit by the man head of clan did he say tin saying this would be terrible for america. >> steve: you got to figure, peter, and i haven't seen the movie yet, but i've heard from people that when bin laden was shot, i got a feeling it was a little gruesome and i think if those pictures were released, it would inf

at the end of that speech, president johnson suddenly announced he would not run again. four days after that political earthquake, dr. martin luther king was assassinated in memphis. washington and 100 other cities exploded in riots that lasted days and required tens of thousands of troops. in early june, a week after our oregon primary victory i got a 3:00 a.m. call from our building headquarters, robert kennedy was shot in los angeles. i called the boss. julie and david have been watching tv and already awakened him. that office for democratic party came across -- apart in chicago. and so it plans went in that dramatic and divisive year. at added sand, richard nixon was president of the united states. [applause] now consider, consider the city he came to end and the hostility he found here. the nation had been torn apart by a half a decade of assassinations and riots and campus anarchy. half a million soldiers were tied down in an endless war. the country was coming apart. richard nixon was the first president since sack retailer to take the oath of office with both houses of congress against him. the press corps

johnson, i agree. you are a gentleman. thank you. the chair recognizes dr. harris for five minutes. >> thank you mr. chairman i want to thank the panel for being here today to review what the strategy is going forward. i am going to ask first comments on a very particular aspect and leads off with the chairman had said that at some point there is an important input but to be honest the crippled critical things that we are doing really there is no mandan but necessary. i work in the operating room. the surge that we are giving you could do from around the world. you could have the surgeon sitting around the world from where that machine is actually in putting an intricate operation with feedback and i don't remember the fancy scientific name but you actually feel what they feel like and all of the inputs the chairman indicates it's now being gained and if you talk to the teenagers at home, robotics and clubs and high schools, this is to some extent the future. and given the expense of redundancy necessary in the program and our need to get the most training and research and engineering experience kno

dr. king, at the monument that's been placed there in the four years since this happened last. >> well, i tell you, brian, this is -- it's unreal to me. it is unbelievable. as lyndon johnsonss of martin luther king. to see jefferson, to see lincoln. it is just unreal. 150 years after the emancipation proclamation, almost 50 years after the march on washington, dr. king delivered the i have a dream speech, it says something about the distance we have come, the progress we have made and for him to make a speech that was so inclusive, it was about black people, white people, asian americans, latino, native americans, straight, gay, that we're one people. we're one family. we are one house. we all live in the american house. >> well, about that last point, congressman, we want to let you go and enjoy your lunch, we all do live in the same house and there you are. you have gone from the struggle earlier in your life to a warrior in the house of representatives. you have got an anxious american public watching. a lot of them would really like to see some folks getting along in washington. what are the prospects for that? >> the prospects are very bright. we're going to continue
