mr. bidenas gotten a little bit of flack. first, let's listen to what he said yesterday. >> that's one of the things that he finds was most in need when he was over there in iraq for a year. people would come to hip and talk about who was happening in terms of foreclosures, in terms of bad loans that were being -- i mean, these shylocks who took advantage of these women and men while overseas. >> and for that line, joe -- for that line joe biden, the vice president of the united states, is now under fire from the anti-defamilianti anti-defamation league. they say it casts dispurgeons. here was the catholic nuns. mr. biden was very much upbeat and making the point that he grew up in parochial schools and has known nuns for some time. he gets in trouble with some jewish groups angry about alleged insensitivity. today he is with some nuns. it was supposed to be a nonpartisan event, using the democratic agenda for 2014 and the vice president to run against hillary. >> can't make it stuff up. can't

who resigned in 1995 amid sexual harrassment of women as one of the commendable republicans that mr. bidenable to work across the aisle. president obama speaking in two hours from now. >> james, rosen, thank you. >> police urging homeowners to lock their doors as a cop killer search narrows to a part of northeast pennsylvania. rick picks up the story, rick? >> reporter: jon, we are less than three miles from the state police barracks where the suspect hid in the woods and ambushed two troopers and shooting them with a high-powered rifle injuring one and killing the another. they believe he's been in the woods hiding out. they have 500 square miles and thick forest and rugged terrain and places to hide. freeman is on the fbi ten most wanted list with a 175,000 boundy on his head. he hunted and honed his survival skills and may have stashed food and provisions in the woods and an escape plan after the shooting that was the plotted out because of his long-standing hatred of law enforcement. >> we saw a massive police report when shots were fired near freshmen's parent's home. dozens of police

. >> earlier in the day mr. biden commended the baltimore ravens for terminating the contract of running back ray rice after video surface of him punch his then fiance. >> general mills buying berkeley base annie homegrown. company announced the deal today saying it will pay 8 20 million dollars for annie and best known for mack and cheese meals in a box. annie says it will stray true to the value of healthy food and virtually conscious business. it will continue to be based in berkeley. >> new report says that single americans make up more than half the adult population for the first time. since the government began compiling these types of statistics in 1976. economist called the data remarkable with important implication for our economy, society and politic. tell single particularly younger wunts are more likely to rent than to own their homes less likely to have children. he claims this influence is the amount of money they spend and what they buy and says single person household exaggerate income equality in the

and i said this to president obama and when i was prime minister, i also talked to mr. biden about this. and we did tell them about this situation in the region. and unfortunately the necessary steps were not taken to deal with it. and it's if this new government can take these steps then i hope that we can achieve a more swift result and those 1.5 million people in our country are able to go back home. >> do you think that your effort to overthrow and see assad leads ahead of government in syria lead you to overlook the threat of the radical jihadist in syria? >> you were so intent on seeing assad overthrown that perhaps your support went to the wrong groups. >> all of the-- well, let me say very clearly that regarding these terrorist organizations, in that area, we have to think of how they happened, how they came about, these terrorist organizations. were there terrorist organizations when assad was there or was isis there, when al qaeda, was it there. i was prime minister for 11 years and i kept going to syria. i visited syria very regularly and these terrorist organizati

obama and mr. biden have spoken about it. that's what practical legislation is all about. looks like they just want to beat up on the republicans and not get it through the congress to alleviate the hard-pressed workers who need a better wage. and that's why we have the website, give 1010 a vote.org, you will see which members from your congressional district have signed on, and which haven't. neil: ralph, i think it's a great idea. and i tell people whether you like it or not, put it up for a vote have, at it. here's an issue that has come up on the minimum wage issue, though, and whether it's going to be the 1010 thing or whatever, it will benefit a small slice of the workers' pie, and that maybe the 2% who benefits, it won't move the needle, so what's ralph nader making such a big deal about it, you say what? >> i say 30 million workers will get a pay raise of different levels between the present federal minimum wage of 7.25 and $10.10. neil: how many do you think benefit? if we're told 2 million americans are paid at minimum wage and more than half are college or high

mr. biden's meeting with the turkish president. ukraine's president poroshenko is speaking in about an hour. jeter on the brain, let's do a data check. s&p futures down fractionally. euro-dollar is a big story we will focus on in our 7:00 hour. 1.26. get a print of on to the next screen. yen churning again. there is the euro. gold, a big deal, beginning to really push against the $1200 level. victor is helping out. june 2013. back to here's that $1200 support that we are going to break through. adam, this is a huge deal. 's over, the chart looks the same. the difference is, rather than $1200, it was $19. the concern is gold follows silver. >> this goes to the imf meetings . what will they do about a markdown to global gdp? we're going to give you front page. we start with syria. day three of our airstrikes on syria, u.s. and arab allies going after the source of islamic states money, which is oil, by bombing will refineries in the eastern part of syria. in the dozen refineries oil smuggling operations. according to brookings, islam

>> as for the idea of mr. biden, he speaks about within the iraq , so that means instead of iraq becoming a kurdish region and many other governments, it means that we could have a region for the kurds and two other regions in the arab areas of iraq. there are those who are thinking that we move from federalism to counter federalism, but the iraqi state remains, but instead system, we federal have a confederate system, but partitioning iraq and turning it into three independent states -- i think this is a bit , especially in today's situation. >> i'm with nbc news. mr. president, yesterday, your prime minister set off a renzi in this country when he said that there was a plot uncovered to attack the subway stations here and him paris, and i was hadering if you yourself any information about that claim, which was widely dismissed by u.s. intelligence and security officials here in -- a plot uncovered to attack the subway stations here and in paris. >> personally, i don't have any information about this. had or seen e

it seems like we heard one from mr. biden yesterday. pretty emphatic in what his feelings were, but we need that from our commander in chief to tell us really what we intend to accomplish and give the american people some knowledge of where we're headed. >> one of the big issues that will definitely be facing members of congress, yourself included when you return next week, is what to do about the question of attacking isis in syria. some of your colleagues, senator bill nelson, he's proposing a vote, actual legislation, giving the authority to the president to clear up any legal question that he has the authority to strike isis in syria. do you support that? >> well, i'd have to see how we're exactly writing that up, but i do think the president is engaging congress more. i think that after the exchange for burgharergdahl when congres not involved, the president is being more sensitive. really right now there's not much of a border between iraq and syria, and if we're going to destroy this enemy, as we've talked about, we may need to g

>> as for the idea of mr. biden, he speaks about within the iraq state, so that means instead of iraq becoming a kurdish region and many other governments, it means that we could have a region for the kurds and two other regions in the arab areas of iraq. there are those who are thinking that we move from federalism to counter federalism, but the iraqi state remains, but instead of having a federal system, we have a confederate system, but partitioning iraq and turning it into three independent states -- i think this is a bit far-fetched, especially in today's situation. >> i'm with nbc news. mr. president, yesterday, your prime minister set off a renzi in this country when he said that there was a plot uncovered to attack the subway stations here and him paris, and i was wondering if you yourself had any information about that claim, which was widely dismissed by u.s. intelligence and security officials here in this country -- a plot uncovered to attack the subway stations here and in paris. >> personally, i don't

restore mr. biden and mr. obama with meals on wheels. bring back head start to level.s make sure that our veterans get the care they deserve and need. we need to fight hunger and at just the erica national security debt as in the middle east. sir.k you, host: another issue we talk about this morning was addressed y the president in the "meet the press" interview. above the fold. u.s. military to help fight africa. obama announces logistical support. comes amid pressure. lodi, ohio is jim on the independence line. hello. caller: good morning. thank you for taking my call. a vietnam vet who tours. stranger to fighting in a foreign land. i think we've been making that since vietnam which is trying to remake the world in our own image and likeness. it doesn't work. goes as the middle east at this point, let them implode on each other. protect our own country. we have the strongest military. we don't even have a true air around this p nation. if something aside from a -- a from russia were to come with us, we don't have a true defense. soldiers and none of our forces are on

mr. maxwell will come before the hearing. >>> up next, vice president biden on hillary clinton's heels and the key presidential state of iowa hey. first here's some of what our fox affiliates across the country are covering tonight. a skunk wearing a beer can. police in oxford say the skunk was spotted near a fraternity house. an animal control officer was able to remove the can from the skunk without getting sprayed. yes, they're covering that. fox affiliates all over the country are running this video of a 3-year-old boy breaking military protocol to ski his mom. she had been deployed to afghanistan for the last nine months along with nearly 100 of her fellow national guard members. >>> here's a live look at phoenix, the big story there tonight, more rain for arizona. the remnants of tropical storm odeal are moving across the state. phoenix will get soaked, we're told. tucson is expected to get up to fi five inches of rain. that's a live look at outside the belt way. our special report will be right back. really? alka-seltzer plus night rushes relief to eight symptoms of a full blown col

mr. binart. we know the president of turkey and vice president joe biden had an important meeting this week. we know there's a very important political process in turkey this week. to you, colonel francona, what should turkey's role be in this? because they have exceptionally strong military force. >> the turks bring serious military capabilities to the table if they decide they're going to be part of the coalition. the turkish air force is excellent and they're right there. these turkish air bases are minutes from where all the fighting is going on. so they could really increase the intensity of the operations over syria. >> they haven't yet. >> no, they haven't yet because right now they don't have any authorization from their parkmenpar parliament. that's going to probably happen on thursday. this would be very important because they would bring a lot of capability. now, politically, the turks have stayed out of this for a while. they're concerned about jump in and helping what will essentially be the syrian kurds because for years the turks have been trying to extinguish the flames of ku

president obama and vice president biden both addressed the isis threat yesterday, but with a difference in tone that got a lot of attention, mrageable problem. biden vowed to follow them to the gates of hell. ukraine actually tops the agenda. the u.s. and europe expected to tighten sanctions on russia and create a rotating rapid reaction force of nato troops in member states on the rush border. guys, back to you. >> wendell goler on the north lawn, thank you very much. it is curious that you got the vice president saying we're going to track them down to the gates of hell because president obama won't even allow us to go ahead and drop bombs across that imaginary border with syria. but then again, the president has been a mixed message one right after another. last thursday he said we had no strategy. yesterday in estonia he said the objective was to destroy and degrade isis. but then he said, well, actually maybe we're just going to get to a point where we could manage it. there are so many crazy statements that don't really form a cohesive strategy, congressman jason chaffetz is scratching his head. >> very confusing. the p

bidening to president that is brilliant. >> yeah. and third is congress to exercise power of the purse. congress would actually, say, mr.nt, we're taking away all of the money from your department if you continue to alike this so lawlessly. lou: marco rubio. famous former "gang of 8" member, now talking to president saying don't do it and talking about fact that house incremental approach is the right way to go. which i have supported for two years, your thoughts about that conversion of rub rubio? >> well, marco -- i mean it is great he is no longer supporting senate amnesty bill, he has been converting back and forth for a while, i don't know where he is on it but bottom line, incrementalism is fine. as long as it does not lead step by step to appest iny. -- amnesty. by the way, you know this, current surge of illegal ill aliens from central america is because of the june 2012 president amnesty, when you send a signal, people come. lou: chris, always good to talk with you thank you so much. >> like wise. lou: leading forensic pathologist, who conducts autopsys ons on dr. martin luthr king jr., and john f. kennedy, he

biden for a silent moment at the white house. the president also laid a wreath at the pentagon memorial and later president and mrs. obama will participate in a service project so. in the next week, nearly 500 troops will deploy to iraq to stop the spread of isis. last night, president obama addressed the nation with a r approach to dismantle the terrorist organization. with the help of syrian opposition on the ground. the president said while isis poses no immediate threat to the u.s. now, that could quickly change. >> and our own safety, our own security, depends upon our willingness to do what it takes to defend this nation and uphomd t upho values we stand for. >> air assaults will continue in iraq. the u.s. will also continue providing humanitarian support to isis victims. >>> and for more on the president's speech and reaction that is pouring in this morning, we're joined by kerry dan, a political writer for nbc. good morning. we just heard some of what the president included in his speemp. what was not said in that speech last night? >> you did hear the president lay out mostly the case for intervention agai

mr...uhh...winkle. geico. fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more on car insurance. >>> i think in some quarters joe biden might be a punch line. in other quarters people view him as an uncle type that you like but you are not sure you want him in charge of the country. a sitting vice president with his eye on the top prize can never be discounted. george will is tongue kel joe, a national punch line or a serious presidential con tender. >> serious to the extent people might say we detest inevitably and detest the hillary clinton campaign. her husband ran promising a bridge to the 21st century, she is promising a bridge to the 1990s, i don't think people vote that wait a minute listen to him, he gives that speech in detroit i think it was take back america, from whom? from the rascals who has been running it for six years of who she is -- who he is a part. when the stock market crashed president roosevelt went on television there was no president roosevelt. there was no television. people saying that's just joe being authentic. the question is authentic what. he knows nothing whatsoever of american histor

biden is on the list, suggesting u.s. troops on the ground is a possibility. i wanted to play for you his exact words. >> mr. vice president, do you agree with general dempsey's assessment about using ground troops if necessary and the mission fails? >> [ inaudible ]. >> i determine that based on how the effort goes. >> determine that on how the effort goes. that wasn't a categorical decision to not use ground troops. >> i think the president spoke to this yesterday and made very clear that is not on the table. but i want to be clear, what general dempsey said yesterday was that he hasn't made that recommendation to the president. of course any advisor to the president has the prerogative to give advice when they see fit. but he hasn't given that advice. we haven't needed that at this point in time and that is not our focus. so it is not something on the table. >> yesterday john kerry, your boss, was asked how many american hostages were right now in iraq and syria and here is what he said. >> do you know how many american hostages you believe are being held by isis or militant groups right now? >> somewhere

mr. obama's described goal of making isis a manageable problem contrasted sharply with vice president joe biden's promise the u.s. would follow isis to the gates of hell for executing two american journalists. >> you understand the difference between manageable problem, gates of hell. >> well, i think the difference is when you look at the phases here, there's an initial phase where you have to degrade an organization. you have to squeeze them. you have to put in place a structure that can then defeat them. we've done this. >> reporter: in what could be a significant shift, the white house says it is now seriously considering sending lethal arms to ukraine, a proposal that has the backing of the top democrat on the armed services committee. nato will increase its military assistance to ukraine and the european union has authorized an economic aid package valued at 15 million euros. >>> there's word that an air strike killed the leader of the al shabaab terror group. somalia's prime minister announced the death this morning. >>> an american doctor infected with ebola arrived this morning in nebras

mr. president? martha: you know, i think in these moments, and perhaps the reason that so many people responded to joe biden tapping into something that people across the nation are feeling, that they want revenge, frankly, and in many ways, perhaps, it reminds some of this moment after everyone in from george w. bush. let's watch that. >> i can hear you, the rest of the world hears you -- [cheers and applause] and the people who knocked these buildings down will hear all of us soon. [cheers and applause] martha: who can forget that moment? it's stirring now. >> that's a leader. martha: all these years later. jessica, i think that's the kind of connection, the kind of understanding what people across the nation are feeling when they watch not one now, but two american journalists beheaded in the desert by these thug -- thug seems to be too soft a word for what we're watching here -- these barbaric acts as it was call in the editorial we saw this morning from cameron and obama. i guess, where's the rage? where's the sentiment? where's the emotion from our president? >> i think what he's doing is trying to pr

when asked for comment, joe biden said, he made it much further than i've ever gotten so -- >> mr. but have a laugh about these things. but i'll tell you again, i covered the building for nine years and i tip my hat to those guys, so many dicey moments where they acted with bravery. but they've got some i's to dot and t's to cross 0 to figure out what happened. >> change is coming, that's for sure. and i think it's going to go way beyond the handwriting. john king, thank you very much. i'll see you again tomorrow. >>> isis terrorists are on a bloody march through syria, they have their sights set on a key kurdish area. the question is it a key area? and how unstable is the situation? we're going to get answers from the pentagon about what's going on. stay with us. big day? ah, the usual. moved some new cars. hauled a bunch of steel. kept the supermarket shelves stocked. made sure everyone got their latest gadgets. what's up for the next shift? ah, nothing much. just keeping the lights on.
