judith miller fox news analyst. i understand you just talked to steve kroft, correct? >> i did. >> bill: he said? >> he said the only constraint on that interview, there were no conditions, even though the white house approached him, the only limitation was one of time he said he knew he only had 30 minutes. he could concentrate either on relationship between former rivals and now partners and now admirers on each other or he could concentrate on foreign policy. she had just testified on the hill. spent hours testifying. he didn't think he was going to be able to advance that story so he chose to concentrate on the relationship. >> bill: do you think that was wise decision in hindsight after looking at the interview. >> i'm not interested in their relationship. >> did you know the world was a dangerous place. >> i kind of suspected it was. >> bill: how about you? did you know how dangerous and complicated the world is? >> well, that's not what i came away with. i came away with the question why would he want to do this? and why would he want to do it with hillary? and

joining me now with insight on all of this, former prosecutor andy mccarthy and judith miller.t vice-president joe biden will address our troops and we'll carry that life. this was particularly gruesome, benghazi, algeria, but bin laden is dead. i thought it was on retreat. >> a decade of war was ending, but apparently the people occupying northern mali, a country twice the size of france did not get the memo. the people who killed our american ambassador in benghazi and the three others did not get the memo and now algeria. with 800 people taken in a facility and hostages, and we have three americans dead and they're annoyed algeria did not coordinate closely enough with us. >> sean: a little odd, i guess, shift in world power structure that the french are taking on mali and the united states is sitting on the sidelines, andy. well, the french think they have a better idea what their national interest is. that's for certain. but i think what's really interesting, sean, if you remember -- you'll remember this, judy, you will, too, 2004, 2005, 2006 we were arguing whether george

judith miller printed stories, anonymous sourcing -- that is where i wanted to put that on the table. she never said we're for information was coming from, that there were weapons of mass destruction. of course, hussein, the leader of iraq, encouraged that. it was something like putting up a sign, beware of the dog in your apartment, but there was no dog. there were no methods of mass destruction. but it gave cover to the moderate democrats to vote for war. in some ways, "the times" bear some responsibility. that was a major embarrassment for them. possibly the most important one. because no one ever knew where this came from. it turned out the person was once a figure in the iraqi government, but the trouble is, it was not true. if i point to somebody and say this person has a contagious disease, we all have to leave the room, i should know what i'm talking about, right? this is an example of a major problem. this diminished the prestige of "the times," and there are the things we could mention also. they had knowledge in 2004 of government wiretapping of private citizens. the govern

judith miller joins us, and kristen powers joins us.p in alaska, you have some familiarity with guns but you both think there ought to be more control on weapons. do i have that right? kirstin to you first. >> i think there should be a comprehensive approach that looks at all the different aspects of it and most important of all would be mental health issues and how we deal with the mentally ill. one of the issues that i don't think is getting enough discussion is the fact that we already have 300 million guns that are owned in this country. so the horse has kind of left the barn. because we only have 300-mile people in the country. and the guns are already out there, and so we have to figure out different ways to address this problem, rather than just demonizing people who are legal gun owners. you know, there is nothing wrong with owning a gun. these are not criminals, and people who own guns should not be treated as criminals. jon: yeah, well with full disclosure, judy i've talked with you about this before, i'm one of those people t
