reporter for the "huffington post." good morning. >> good morning. thank so much for coming on this morning. >> my pleasure. >> the president's speech was very well received among the afghan people. >> yeah kabul functions in a different state than the rest of afghanistan. the taliban did not react that well, but they had a surprising level of warm feelings to the fact that the president came and showed himself even though it was the middle of the night and established a partnership to stay here in afghanistan. >> this is ryan parker. >> this is a long war, and it requires long-term commitment. >> josh, obviously all polling shows the american people have grown weary of this war as well as iraq. do you feel like this was partially a political calculation, so he wasn't going to get this complaint that if you signal a date certain to the taliban that they are just going to wait it out. >> yes, there is a lot of mixed messaging coming from the white house i think in part to make everyone confused. but there is this date 20

alluding to perhaps tax increases. >> are you going to quote huffington post?blican moderates left in the world. there aren't many, but there are few. people will reward seriousness on debt reduction. we have annual deficits. we need to do something about that. what do you do about it? s how do you spread the pain? people are willing to sacrifice if it's fair and shared. if there are some tax increases on the wealthy, a little on the middle class has to happen. you cannot put all the money to the pentagon, cut social programs and expect voters to reward you for it. >> 16 republicans actually recognize that. between the grover norquist anti-tax pledge and current state of affairs among republicans, it's shocking. >> my guess is more would have defected if they were led by boehner and cantor. this is a toxic document. i don't understand why they brought it for vote. what was the purpose to vote on this? they had voted for the budget control. the sequester that is supposed to hit is something all these republicans support. now they are saying, we don't actually su

let's bring in "huffington post" washington bureau chief ryan grimm in.inted out this was an article written by howard fineman but he writes down some of the items he said to consider from this play book. first describe the gop play book, how it was rensing? >> well, it is one that is aggressive. it employs cultural wedge issues and it exploits national security in a way that democrats are generally uncomfortable with. but we've seen democrats, we've seen obama do that a couple time already. he was asked, romney says that you're weak on defense. you're not able to make a decision. obama shot back, oh, yeah? ask osama bin laden. that's not the kind of thing that a stereotypical kind of weak-kneed liberal would say. so in many ways he has adopted some of these more aggressive tactics. >> again, the wording was confrontational and definitive. was howard referencing the definitive part when discussing same sex marriage? >> sure. both same sex marriage and immigration. typically, democrats are the ones that are getting hit with the wedge issues like they did i

one of the articles on the huffington post is titled facebook stock collapses, contributes to mistrust of wall street and joining me, the huffington post chief financial writer mark gunnloft who kroet the article and michael smerconish who talks to people all day long who i imagine some of them not expert that is saw this coming and let me start off with you on this. you have according to the report maybe 21 other banks including morgan stanley who may have disseminated information but not widely to shareholders. that would be illegal. >> it is potentially he will legal and even if it is not illegal this is not the first rodeo. this he have done this before and claimed they did it on the up and up. even if it is all legal, it is a pr disaster for wall street at the worst possible time because it just confirms what individual investors have up issed all along is that the game is rigged, the casino is rigged for the insiders and the banks and not for them. >> that's what so many people say about wall street, it is a glamourized casino and no different than the grandma who goes to atlanti

actually, hal stein in the huffington post had a great analysis of this.ccain tried to do this to some degree. barack obama remind people of the halcion days. mitt romney is clearly trying to paint president obama as an extremist which is not going to work. >> i'm sorry! they impeached him! how can anybody forget that? two presidents in history were impeached him. how can they go on? does he have any history in that head of his or just talking points? i interrupted you. but i did interrupt you with something important. he was at peace with republicans. >> he was. but institutional memory is a thing of the past. if this was mitt romney speaking in 1994, perhaps he would have more in common with bill clinton and he could sort of align himself better with him. mitt romney these days, we call him that. governor romney had more in common than candidate romney. >> no democrat is going to take mitt romney's praise of bill clinton seriously. and if he somehow thought he was going to lure democratic votes, it's a waste of his time. >> thank god we have videotape. r

it was reported the meeting -- the huffington post, romney told them to work closely with their outlets and will help conservative outlet's writing about obama with opposition research. so he is having meetings and promising to help provide them with research. so, in one hand you may say he's not trying to appeal to people, on the other hand, he is trying to get them to come on and do a number for them. >> i point out to you this, the romney campaign and mitt romney himself, have not granted much access to the media. they don't trust the media. he has been saying that more and more recently. in order to win a presidential race, especially against an incumbent that's popular, you need to get your message out into the media. they need some kin of outlet. so it's more about figuring out where they can do that, and if they don't think the mainstream press will treat them with fairness, and i would say they have been fair, but i don't think the romney campaign sees it that way, they need to go somewhere and that's where their headed. >> i think at the end of the day they want to vote out bar

you can follow josh of course at "huffington post." on twitter, you can follow him at joshua hersh. josh, so a year and a half from now, what are the expectations we should have for the government of hamid karzai to be able to run that country? i mean it seems today he can't even run kabul. will he have national support and a national unified government? >> you're asking basically the fundamental question that everyone wants to know. i mean there is going to be an election in 2014 also. another piece to the puzzle here. karzai has said that he's not planning to run. he's not planning to be part of that new presidential team so on some level, you know it will be a whole different administration in afghanistan dealing with it. but what sort of institutions have been built and is it still going to be sort of a karzai-supported follower or will it be someone completely different, there are major questions about what will happen here. huge questions. the americans, their rhetoric is very optimistic. optimistic enough that you have to wonder

of the "huffington post."itt romney is getting down to specifics on what he plans to do as president. sort of. politico posted an e-mail circulating among top romney donors in new york and connecticut, praising his focus on the so-called three es. employment, energy, and education. romney released a new tv ad called day one, part two, focusing on what he would do on his first day as president and said yesterday unemployment would drop to 6% in the first four years. this morning, romney outlined three ways he would create jobs. >> start off by saying let's stop something that's hurting small business from creating swr jobs, that's obama care, get rid of that. number two, have an energy strategy that takes advantage of our natural gas and oil and cole as well as our renewables. the low cost fuels will mean jobs come back here, even manufacturing jobs that left here and finally get a handle on the deficit so if people understand that they invest in america their dollars are going to be worth something in the futu
