i'm on jamal's side in this case. i think democrats are realize if you tax folks who make over $1 million, that's a very different political proposition. 75% of all voters support taxing millionaires more. i think republicans are going to throw what karen just said. they're going to throw the class warfare rhetoric around. they might box themselves into a corner. >> karen? >> the bill is not going to pass, i can assure you of that. >> washington insider. >> it won't. i'm quite confident of that, that it won't pass and it won't -- i'll be surprised if it even comes up for a vote, quite frankly. it's better politics on the part of the democrats. and if president obama had gone out there to start with with the tax truly on millionaires and not the $250,000 range which chuck schumer balked at, he would have been better to start with. he had to engage in this constant finger-pointing and finger-wagging. >> i want to move on to herman cain. but, jamal, if this does not pass, is that it for the president with the jobs bills?

i'm on jamal's case. if you tax folks who make over a million dollar a year, a very different political proposition than saying families who make $250,000 a year are in this bunch of super rich. 75% of all voters support taxing millionaires more. they will be throwing the class warfare rhetoric around. the reality of the policy is very different politically and they might box themselves in a corner. >> the bill is not going to pass, i can assure you of that. >> washington insider. it won't pass. i'll be surprised if it even comes up for a vote, quite frankly. it's much better -- it's better politics on the part of the democrats. if president obama had gone out there to start with, with a tax truly on millionaires and not the 250,000 dollar range chuck schumer balked at, he would have been bet tore start with and wouldn't have had to engainesvilling in this constant finger wagging. >> i want to move to herman cain. jamal, i want to ask you a quick question, if i may. if this does not pass, is that it for t

jamal simmons is a democratic strategist also coming from washington tonight.id, i wanted to start with you tonight, and just show you, i guess, this issue of the fence. let's talk about who's for the fence or against the fence. it's actually interesting that every republican with the exception of rick perry has said that they support a fence along the 2,000-mile border. does that make sense? >> i'm someone who strongly supports stricter enforcement of the immigration laws, and i say that as someone who was born in canada and migrated to the united states. the fence is the most expensive, slowest, and least effective way to do it. if you want to enforce the immigration laws, what you do, every state requires every employer to check the status of employees through the federal e-verify system with really harsh fines if you violate it. right now, if you violate the clean water act, it's not an excuse to say, "i didn't know," but under the immigration system, it is an excuse to say i didn't know. under the clean water act, the fines are heavy, under the immigration

. >> your perspective on jamal, awaiting the decision on whether he will be executed or spend his life in prison. >> he should be released. [applause] one of my professors actually is working on his case, so i have been following through her visits and conversations, but i think it is the quintessential example of what is happening with the intellects in our community. he is a brilliant brother. if you have not gone on youtube and seen him offering his insight on any number of social political issues -- i mean geopolitical issues, what is happening in afghanistan and iraq, what is happening with education in this country. his analysis -- the death of his insight and analysis i think is just undeniable -- the debt -- the depth of his insight and analysis is just undeniable. it is a reflection of how comfortable and distracted many of us our -- us are that we have not created a more sustained movement around cases like this. i voted for barack obama. i would vote for him again when the time comes. at the same time, i get asked this question so often, right? are we post-race? are we past

former rnc chairman michael steele, democratic strategist jamal simmons. you to you both. >>> a lot of questions raised today after the fiery crash that killed popular indy car driver dan wheldon, the reining indianapolis champion. he was killed in a horrifying 15-car pile-up during the beginning of the race sunday. now questions are being raised about the safety of the las vegas racetrack and whether too many cars were in the race in the first place. more now from nbc's george lewis who is in las vegas. >> reporter: veronica, veteran race drivers say they have never seen a pile-up quite as bad as this one. cars crashing and spinning. some hitting the wall in flames. dan wheldon's car flying through the air. just minutes into the race on the 12th lap of the cars hitting speeds of 230 miles an hour, the tires on two of the cars touched, sending them out of control. >> oh, there we go. >> huge crash. >> go low! >> up in turn number two. >> multiple cars involved. >> oh, my. it looks like dan wheldon may be involved in it. >> reporter: wheldon had started the

jamal brown is expected to move from right to left tackle. they do not even know who was going to start. austin led the redskins with 11 catches in the preseason but then he was passed over until he made this catch on sunday against the eagles. he will now get more plays. anthony armstrong is expected. >> honestly, it is more than just the quarterback position. everybody needs to do their job. find a way to improve. everybody across the board has to say, we will get better. >> the nfl trade deadline today. the raiders gave up a first- round pick in 2012. jason campbell broke his collarbone on sunday. palmer goes to the raiders. mcnabb one 1924 with no interceptions. -- won 19 of 24 with no interceptions. david stern says if progress is not major, more games will be canceled. they may be able to compromise on some minor issues, but there's still too far apart on the major issues. david stern will probably not coughing few more weeks of the regular season, which will take us into january. today marks the 110th day of the lockout. in college foo

jamal simmons is a democratic strategist. here from an aide to a democratic member of the super committee saying, they did not leak the deal today. i'm referring of course to the leak that came of details of a democratic plan to cut up to $3 trillion, which was immediately shot down by republicans and threw a big bomb in the middle of this whole goal to get this done. what's going on here with the leaks do you think? >> clearly, one side or the other is positioning against each other. and this notion that what's interesting to me is this notion that you were going to get all these democrats in this committee and none of them would have voted for something like medicare, medicaid cuts, it looks like now those cuts are on the table as well as tax increases. so you've seen some of these democrats people thought were maybe too liberal to go along with something like that, you've seen them maybe move over a little bit and be willing. we'll see what the republicans doctoring to do now. this does seem like there's some jockeying goi

not by police but by jamal's group. >> translator: security has not been restored, so we need vigilantes. on the night of the liberation declaration, jomaa and his fellow vigilantes sell brake light vigilantes celebrated by having coffee. he says he wants to return to his former job and do his best to rebuild his nation. but he says it's still too early to disarm. >> translator: today is the start of a new libya, but vigilantes still have roles to play. when true peace comes, i'll law down my weapons happily and become a civil servant again to take part in nation-building efforts. >> reporter: they're celebrating the berth of the new nation, but it remains unclear when militias like his will be able to put down their arms and enjoy peace. nhk world, tripoli. >>> aee sha joins us now with the latest in business news. are currencies back in the headlines? >> yes, that's right, catherine. and dollar-yen at that. in new york, the dollar fell to the upper 75 yen level at one point overnight. the dollar marked a record low of 75.78 yen in new york on friday. on monday, it gained ground and was
