and i think the fear mongering is a perfect way to label lieberman's horrific description of a nine eleven pearl harbor not only to combine some truly sad and horrific moments in american history all the put his own interests but how they even think up this concoction of tragedies makes me wonder what other hypothetical doomsday scenarios he just might come up with just to make sure that some type of cybersecurity bill gets signed before he hangs up his hat maybe go back a hundred years took a heartstrings of americans and predicts titanic situation or if you think that's too far in the past maybe i'll go the nuclear route for his due date scare tactics if cybersecurity legislation needs to be pushed again would lieberman dare suggest a cure noble hiroshima disaster now i'm not trying to make light of these events become on guys this fear mongering is completely out of hand this is how bad legislation gets passed and this is how rights get trampled on when you put fear and panic into the mix you think you would have learned that by now after the last ten years believe it sees that c

and calls for action continue and then lastly we show you how the cable networks are still fear mongering away on iran joining me to discuss this from our studio in new york is all the arab national security reporter for think progress dot org and via broadband is robert farley assistant professor at the university of kentucky and blogger at lawyers guns and money gentlemen thank you both for joining me tonight all right so let me just let me lay this out and start with clinton in egypt so first how it goes is we support this dictator for decades then they have a revolution obviously this is the very bridge version so that now they've had an election now the candidate from the muslim brotherhood is in power so now you have

well twenty thirteen is still half a year away but that hasn't stopped war hawks from fear mongering about the impending sequestration cuts now we've talked about it several times a fourth of five hundred billion billion dollars in extra cuts to the super inflated defense budget over the next ten years and while those big numbers might sell on kind of scary the c.b.l. recently concluded with a fence based budget would still of be larger than it was in two thousand and six but despite efforts to inject a little reality into the bait the hawks are still crying over the cuts likening their implementation to doomsday and in fact they're so nervous that they have a bark on crusades against this take for example setter jim inhofe who could not understand for the life of him why other programs were untouched well the defense budget was on the chopping block. everything seems to be exempt except the military food stamps exempt a hundred percent of medicaid. thirty seven percent it only ten percent of the d.o.d. budget so why is it that we are offenders serves their situation where that's tha

citizens to walk down their own hallway without getting blown away so i guess when in doubt fear monger right once again i want to call bloomberg for how wrong he is about stop and frisk you see there's a reason the people have taken to the streets of new york to protest the police department's policy bloomberg claims that we needed to take care of the city's violence yet ninety percent of those who were stopped in two thousand and eleven were released immediately that's right the n.y.p.d. is proud of the fact that they stopped six hundred eighty four thousand people last year but only twelve percent of those were arrested or receive summonses so sure sounds like that's a really effective process let me also take a moment to remind everyone at home that eighty percent of those detained are black or latino yet a huge majority of them weren't held for any crimes and i'm no police officer but the statistics seem to prove how racist and damaging and not helpful the stop and frisk policy really is now bloomberg is a total idiot he did mention the current program needs to be mended saying tha

>> well, bowles, first of all, let's remember, is a professional doom mongerer. >> doom mongerer?no disrespect, but he and simpson and other people who have been out there kind of being the lead doom mongerers to draw attention to this which is a useful service. one, going over the fiscal cliff isn't wiley coyote going over a cliff where you go straight down. it's more of a slope. other than the possible expiration of the debt limit -- i don't want to geek out too much here. these cuts hit gradually over time. if it were to go a week, two weeks, maybe even a month past january 1st, it wouldn't be the end of the world. the real problem, though, is that we're about to run up, hit the debt limit sometime around january 1st and then you're right back where we were last fall when we know from that experience that voters blame everybody in power. the president whose numbers dropped, in congress whose numbers dropped even further. >> go ahead, john. >> it might be a slope but what about the impact that all the machinations in washington have on the markets and confidence? doesn't that tu

what drives the world the fear mongering used by politicians who makes decisions to break through it's already been made who can you trust no one who is you to be you who with the global machinery see where are we heading state controlled capitalism is called sessions when nobody dares to ask we do our t.v. question more. you know sometimes you see a story and it seems so you think you understand it and then you glimpse something else you sure see some other part of it and realize that everything is ok. i'm sorry there's a big issue. here with you. but in the alona so we'll get the real headlines with none of the most of the problem with the mainstream media today is that they're completely disconnected from the viewers and are what actually matters to those viewers and so that's why young people just don't watch t.v. anymore if they want news they go online and read it but we're trying to take those stories that people actually care about and transfer them back to t.v. . all right welcome back i gave a pretty lengthy explanation of what dr roberts is going to be talking talking about

poulos are going to join us then we'll have a foreign policy panel hillary clinton's in israel fear mongering about iranian missiles is still in full effect and what you libya mali and syria all have in common all they care of and robert farley are going to help us hash that out it will have all of that and more frayed and i concluded a dose of happy hour but first take a look with the mainstream media decided to miss. all right so it's another day of obsessive campaign coverage and the debate that's taking center stage right now for the mainstream media is about the is about bain capital and mitt romney and the obama campaign's attacks on mitt romney and bain capital over the outsourcing of jobs the battle over bain just won't go away some of the companies bain invested in send jobs overseas the has said that at the time when the obama campaign is accusing him of being part of a company that i was source jobs that he was not there we know he's had a swiss bank account we know he's exported jobs to china the attacks on mitt romney's business career at bain capital's begin to take a toll so no

he's refusing to denounce the fear mongering.ow speaker boehner put it. >> i think accusations like this being thrown around are pretty dangerous. >> the top two house republicans are clearly divided. and it could have major impart on the direction of the party. joining me now is melissa harris-perry host of "melissa harris-perry." first of all thanks to both of you for being here. >> thank you. good to be here. >> now, melissa, let me start with you. it looks like boehner and cantor are not on the same page with this. how do you think this is going to play out? >> well, you know, interestingly enough they are often not on the same page. even if you go to the debt ceiling crisis, boehner for all of the flaws and things, he's been an insider in washington, congress. he understands what it takes to pass legislation. even if it was legislation which i would disagree. cantor and the other tea party folks, they're there just to stop any government from happening. you see that in the moment when cantor is asked. come on, aren't you goi

government. >> i have no doubt that it's simply scare mongering. but i think it has a long historic route. we've seen this kind of thing before. when edward r. murrow challenged joe mccarthy, he wasn't standing up for communism, he was standing up for american values. i'm not standing up for any particular religious group. i'm standing up for america's freedom of thought in america today. just simply being a member of a particular religious group does not make you radioactive. >> you asked for a full accounting of the evidence these members of congress were using to make their claims. you got a 16-page letter back. does their evidence hold up? >> no, it's 16 pages worth of nothing. it's 16 pages worth of repeated false allegations. just regurgitated nonsense. 16 pages doesn't take nothing and turn it into something. it's still nothing. the fact is i would hope that we would just let our saner more courageous spirit prevail. and say look, you know, in america, everybody counts. everybody matters. people can be included. people can be a part our amer

. >> now, that sounds like fear-mongering to me. tell me where they're wrong. >> that is partisanship. it's fear-mongering. it's irresponsible, john. i support every goal of the 2010 law. i don't want to see everybody kicked off health insurance. i want to see everybody get the care they need. and let's not ignore the fact that everybody who voted for and everybody who supports the 2010 law is supporting taking a half trillion dollars of funding out of medicare. medicare is going broke. we need to protect our seniors. and the best way to protect our seniors right now is to make sure that that funding goes back into medicare. great goals, wrong law, too costly. we can't afford it. we can't afford to have the federal government try to run your health care from washington. we can do it much better if we allow our patients and doctors and consumers to make smart choices. >> thank you, congresswoman. appreciate it. >> thank you. >>> still "outfront" tonight, a secret phone call from air force one. who's the president calling and what's h

to actually go through and try to combat the misinformation and fear mongering could be a full-time job. >> really, i find a number of significant errors and some lies in gasland. that's it. the silent majority in america support fracking. >> reporter: his film argues only a few people actually claim fracking contaminated their water. and he insists that shale gas is essential for reviving the u.s. economy. >> any growth that's in the american economy has come from fracking. >> reporter: the obama administration believes shale gas will help fuel economic growth in the u.s., but it is also moving to tighten t environmental regulations on governing the controversial extraction process. rosa sobrino, nhk world. >>> people across japan are honoring a culinary custom. many will spend their lunch or dinner eating eel. it is the day of the ox. people believe the food will give them ox-like stamina in the heat of summer. there is one problem. fewer eels. authorities in taiwan and china and japan have worked together to preserve the declining population. japanese and taiwanese fisheries authorit

there is a lawsuit by mol molly monger and the others who are behind the tax initiative saying this is not fair that the governor got his allies in the legislature to bump his to the top. >> there are some studies to show if you have a long list of stuff to vote on and the one at the top, if it involves money, it may be worth another point or two because as voters go down the list, they get tired of spending money. >> a pint or two will not save this. >> this is in the mid-60s a month ago. now it is pulling at 52. the howard jarvus people have not run a no campaign yet. how in the world will jerry brown pass this thing? >> you know as well as i do that the general rule of thumb is if you are not starting up somewhere beyond 60 points as you are going into the final stretch before election day, you are probably not going to pass. with this hovering on the margin there without a no campaign yet, it will be an uphill battle. especially when there is criticism for not addressing public pensions and high speed rail is moving. >> what can he do short of a huge sweeping public pension deal? >

you've accused me of fear mongering and you are rightly demanding proof. that's fair.ere you go. you probably know that more than any other developed nation, the u.s. economy is driven by its citizens and on how confident they feel about their future. this week we learned that the measure of consumer confidence fell for the fourth month in a row to its lowest levels since january. you may disagree with why it's down. but, again, the customer who in this case is the american consumer is always right when it comes to the economy. why? because if americans are worried about the economy, they delay making important purchases and a perceived economic slowdown can easily become a reality. okay. so it's happening. but why? well, probably the biggest

research on globalization and he believes there are indications that nato states may soon move from war mongering against the syrian regime to reelection. the u.s. defense secretary leon panetta has reiterated washington's threats of military intervention accusing the syrian government forces of waging what he describes as a tragic attack on their own people quote unquote the west the military alliance is contemplating support of opposition rebel forces in fact they are the foot soldiers of the u.s. they took military alliance just want to quickly ask you about turkey's involvement in turkey's interest reports are surfacing that the turkish army has started to closely monitor weather conditions there in syria leading to speculation they could possibly be preparing to launch a strike how likely is that what they hope to achieve by that. so he is a member of nato it's a heavyweight in nato it has already encroaching on syria's northern border. is providing safe havens to the rebels it has training camps it's collaborating with qatar is a solid is it is supporting the muslim brotherhood which muslim

so i find this all to be a lot of a lot of hype and photo worry and false worries and fear mongering and again such a broad you could argue anything is going to be detrimental to national security but if it can it contributes to the public debate and public discourse in our country and the public's right to know in conversations we have about drones or where we have about. actions we're taking in other countries and most people would be completely appalled about. we should be having that conversation and we should also mention that we tried to obtain a statement from carry on but unfortunately we were told that he is not allowed to speak because he is under this gag order. so we're. it's there's no gag order so much as the fact that when you're a criminal defendant anything you say could inadvertently create impeachable information were used against you basically and so most criminal defendants are well advised not to talk while they're proceeding is underway. radek the nash director for national security and human rights and director of the government accountability project. well yo
