joining me, alec magillis, senior editor of the new republic. opposition to the nra that over time will be financially competitive with it? >> definitely. i think what we're seeing is the emergence of a serious opposition of the sort we haven't seen ever. >> the nra has been outspending the other side more than 10 to 1 in politics. >> exactly. now with michael bloomburg and gabby giffords, raised $11 million in four months, an amazing sum, you have the ability to come back on the other side and basically try to shift the calculus to the point where candidates who vote the long way, against gun control, are facing serious repercussions at home. these ads running against kelly ayotte, these are harsh. these are repercussions never faced before. you see politicians start to rethink what is the -- >> we are watching kelly ayotte rethink it live as she goes to microphone in new hampshire. >> the problem for bloomberg and giffords, the time is a bit off. the people they would like to target aren't up for a couple years. >> you make a fascinating point

man today mainstream media helped obama in the attack on monday now the government turned on the new republic says the current worst type of news agency associated press could be the tip of the oyster that pulling has had the desired effect to soil and the nation eric lichtblau won the pulitzer prize for national reporting exposing bush's massive illegal wiretap program when the government snell spying on him he quit the beat of almost war and dissent has won for suppressed and public is much less likely to report any government crime. if i were one of my sources i would never talk to me again even stories that really would have been a public service obama is worse than richard nixon says the pentagon papers lawyer if he continues with his attack on transparency and the secret grand jury against wiki leaks he's in fact he goes ahead and prosecute julian the signs he will pass next he's he's close to nixon now the example is a good example of something that obama has done what nixon never did the british secret service hunted an emotion and her family after she blew the whistle on it thanks a

maria teresa kumar is an msnbc contributor, and alex mcgillis is the senior editor of "the new republic great to have you all here. daffney, i want to start with you in talking about what we understand about comey and his potential nomination. we have senator chuck grassley saying if he's nominated, he would have to answer questions about his recent work in the hedge fund industry, the administration's efforts to criminally prosecute wall street in the economic downturn have been abysmal and the agency would have to help to build the case against his colleagues. >> jim comey is a registered republican, he was the deputy attorney general, serving under george bush. he's also one of the few men, maybe one of the only men, who ever walked into the oval office and told the president that he was breaking the law. so you can see that there's definitely going to be some pushback from the republicans. it's interesting that they want to take the financial tact. when comey was the attorney general, he prosecuted a lot of wall street cases. it's interesting they want to go that way. but i think he

narrator: william prior was but one of many self-appointed painters to the new republic. some, like him, were prosperous and skilled-- painters by profession, following the ancient tradition of the limner. others were just men and women who could turn a capable hand to many different tasks: village artisans who were also farmers, housewives, schoolteachers, carpenters, jacks-of-all-trade; or itinerants-- travelers infected with the restless exuberant spirit of early america. they would paint for lodging and a meal. many remain unknown. all were academically untrained but their eyes were sharp. james bard spent a lifetime painting steamboats in new york. shipbuilders admired his accuracy, claiming they could lay down the lines of a vessel from one of his paintings. ( lively banjo music ) in 1837, a visitor to america was struck by the manner in which the imaginative talent of the people had thrown ielf forth into painting. the country seemed to swarm with painters, and they left a pictorial diary of our past: ( choppy banjo music ) salesman: side views and profiles of chil

"what a crime is this. "a parricidal hand has robbed us "of the people's most determined defender, "a man who died for liberty. "we still look among you, expecting to see him here "among you, our representatives. "what a spectacle it was-- "this man in the moment of his death. "where are you, david? you have another picture to paint." and david spoke up, his voice choked with emotion, "yes, i will undertake it." david painted the picture in three months. the death of marat is a murder story, and we see all the clues to the murder-- the blood, the knife, the letter marat received from cha

the "new republic" rights, israel's strike was launched for different reasons than a u.s.rael was not endeavoring to send a message to the syrian or protect syrian civilians. rather, israel learned of weapons heading from iran through syria to hezbollah. and decided to destroy them before hezbollah could get them within miles of israel's northern border. regardless, this weekend president obama expressed his support. >> the israelis justifiably have to guard against the transfer of advanced weaponry to terrorist organizations like hezbollah. >> but exactly what justifies american action in syria remains unclear. by yesterday morning, those advocating for american intervention had ratcheted up the pressure. >> the red line that the president of the united states written was apparently written in disappearing ink. we need tom a game-changing action. and that is, no american boots on the ground, establish a safe zone, and to protect it and to supply weapons to the right people. in syria who are fighting for obviousle

jamie, i want it start with you, you have a piece in the "new republic" last time you were on the show, we were talking about the case for american involvement and the fact that this is an american interest to do something. i'll read an excerpt from the piece. you write setting aside the question of chemical weapons, there are many other persuasive justifications for a stronger american role in syria. the tally of the dead in the civil war exceeds 70,000. many millions of refugees are pouring into jordan, lebanon and turkey. a crucial region to the united states is coming apart. yet, the administration doesn't consider these sufficient reasons for greater involvement. why is that the case, jamie? >> well i think they've taken a very, very high standard about american national security interests. the areas where they have taken strong action, have tended to be related to al qaeda. the raid on bin laden, the use of drones. and almost everything else they have adopted what i would call you know, the hyperrealist position. but i think what is missing and what today's israeli raids show is

who is at the table now is marin coburn of the new republic, and we have richard kim of the nation andthe atlantic. this is a definition, i think, for democrats on this committee of just a wrenching compromise. just from a very basic sort of, you know, political coalition perspective, you have two key cogs within the democratic co ligs that were baf -- coalition that were pitted against each other, and you were forced to choose between them. you saw feinstein urging democrats that we have to be pragmatic about this and we can't satisfy both. let's make sure we satisfy at least one. >> i think the fate of that showed that it gave the law that the whole thing isn't bipartisan at all. the numbers are bipartisan, but if you look at the sausage making on this, it's happening inside the republican party. if it went straight up for a vote in the senate, it would get 54, 55 supporters, clear by a healthy majority, but it won't get a vote in the senate. it didn't even get a vote out of committee in the chamber that the democrats control, right? and that set of ratios show democrats are sort of
