there's long lines and it's taking a long time to get through the website because it's really overwhelme eed it's annog to do that at the last minute. that annoyance is not a death spiral problem. this is the opposite of that kind of problem. this is not too few people signing up. this is too many people trying to sign up. if the health of our newly reformed health care system in this country depends on people agreeing to participate in the system, people agreeing to get health insurance when this is exactly the right kind of problem that you want to have. it may be annoying, but this is the type of difficulty that they dreamt of. it's too popular. we'll get to some of what that means for the policy in just a moment with an expert guest who's going to be here in just a second. but in terms of the politics here, what does this mean for the republican party? i mean, as far as anyone can tell, the whole republican plan for the elections this november is that republicans plan to crow about the obvious failure of health reform, right? well, now that health reform isn't failing, what are they goin

right now,ed this nevada mountain is call eed frenchman' mountain. obviously, that name has to go. republican congressman joe heck wants frenchman mountain renamed mt. reagan and house republicans this year are entertaining his bill. now, in part because there already is a mt. reagan in this country, there's one in new hampshire, democrats in the house have reacted to this new republican plan in the house to name another mt. reagan in nevada mostly by laughing at it. this was congressman jared hoffman of california during the debate this year on naming yet another mountain, mt. reagan. >> mr. chair, i think this is a terrific amendment. in fact, if anything, i would go one step further. i think we may want to consider going big with this reagan naming enthusiasm and just naming the planet -- we've already talked about a huge part of the ocean bigger than the united states itself and we're sort of piecemealing our way with mountains and other things. but i'm beginning to see some possibility in this. if we went that natural next step and named the planet reagan, i think that might b

but i will not look at a picture where i'm torment eed by what i saw and felt that night. >> emotional and unexpected device for capturing the extent of the damage to reeva steenkamp's body. video of oscar pistorius shooting a watermelon. you can see him firing, and then see the incredible explosive damage to that watermelon. a vivid image for the court. nbc news correspondent mike taibbi has the latest. >> reporter: ronan, oscar pistorius showed up this morning to complete the unchallenged version of his story about why he shot and killed girlfriend reeva steenkamp. his attorney asked, did you intend to kill reeva steenkamp? pistorius said, no, i didn't intend to kill her, or anyone else for that matter. then came the challenging part, the beginning of what's expected to be a withering cross-examination by prthe prosecutor. pistorius said i made a mistake, he hammered him for more than 40 seconds and said, no, you shot and killed her. say that you shot and killed her. finally pistorius agreed that that's what he had done. then he moved on to something that sounded curious in the begin

the notion of the implied covenant as justice scalia explain eed before the d.c. circuit in the time share decision is a label that encompasses many meanings. some states like illinois and connecticut use the doctrine purely, it appears to us, as an interpretive device to discern the intent of the parties. other states at the other end of the spectrum, arizona is one, we cited a number of other cases in our brief, use the same concept to encompass extra contractual -- >> i don't want to have to sort it out state by state. i mean, it seems to me the -- the regime proposed by the petitioner is much more manageable. if it goes beyond the words of the contract, and you're reading into it something that it doesn't say, it's a matter of state policy. i can work with that, but you're asking me to go through each of the 50 states. one by one, to decide, oh, which of these are really trying to disearn the intent of the parties and which are not? since you discern the intent of the parties by saying parties intend to apply community standards, right? and there will be diffe

people are allowed tor m eed to? >> well, yes, but there's also a sanctity of the game and the sport. in this case, when you're talking about racism and racialization in this country and in the history of this country and an african-american league that's predominantly 80 to 85% of the players. words carry weight and words have tradition, particularly in this country. and we have to be kargful and we have to be sympathetic to the words than being used and the way they're being used in this setting. and they do transfer outside of the sporting arena. >> well, let's get into how this is going to, like, get out there. manifest itself beyond this one decision. like a court decision. it's going to become a precedent. i remember when we had the marge schott case in cincinnati. and she said her stuff. and her lawyer, smart guy, i know him, bob bennett from washington said okay, you want to play this game, owners, every one of you owners i want to depose you, put you under oath, and ask you if you ever used words like this e

but the other thing that it touches on is, what one journalist has called wai eed w mania, you should to opt out of parts of the law we don't like. we see it with the hobby lobby case with the supreme court and certain parts of the legislation that's made it way to the arizona state house. this has happened across the country. would you agree with that? >> i think to some extent that's correct. the thing that bothers me the most about this is that he is is being put up as a symbol of something that he's not. as you laid out earlier. this guy is a law-breaker, an outlaw, a welfare cowboy. he's gotten away with murder for 20 years, he's done things that no law-abiding, to use the rhetoric of the, of those who would often be on the right and use this guy as a champion, what other law-abiding ranchers would not do. he's refused to pay a government which he now says does not exist. and what's worse alex, beyond the fact that you have the right wing talk radio blogosphere going nuts making this guy into something he's not. it's the politicians here who are really enabling this guy. i just c

their concert eed effort to tak as much as eastern ukraine as they can either by diplomatic pressuregoing in to protect the russians in eastern ukraine. >> what should the u.s. do about it? >> there's no easy answer, wolf. let's go forward to the future. up, we should make this more a priority. we should make it absolutely clear we're going to all we can do increase the exporting of liquified natural gas, work with ally to lessen their reliance. go after sanctions. clear to investors around the world this is not something we're going to give putin the exit ramp. we're in this for the long haul. we need a conservative economic policy to keep russia from expanding. we should be having military maneuver with night toe countries in eastern europe, poland, czech republic, hungary, lithuania, to make it clear we're in this. many ways, to is to me like 1946, churchill and truman realized there was not a new, but soviet government that we could not work with. i think we have to right now let putin know we put him in that category and take whatever economic and diplomatic actions necessary an

we deploy eed to iraq in 2011. he did not see combat to their knowledge.injuries, no purple hearts of nothing of that nature. he was a truck driver for those four months. he had been undergoing mental evaluation. he's been here since february. he's got a wife and 3-year-old little girl that live off post. he had been treated for depression, anxiety. apparently he was having a tough time sleeping and had been given a number of prescriptions. they mentioned at this hearing, ambien. he was seen as recently as last month by a psychologist. no suicidal ideations was the phrase. they ultimately decided carol, to just monitor him and again he did have this.45-caliber semi automatic pistol which he used in the shooting. but you know, he took this gun on post illegally. you have to register it with the commander from which they said he had not done. quickly finally obviously they're looking into any sort of -- they don't want to entirely rule out terrorism motives. this is looking more like an isolated incident. so far at this hearing they said he has no ties with
