pat smith joins us now. good evening, pat. >> hi there. >> judge jeanine: well, let me just start by saying there is no greater loss to any one than the loss of a child to a parent, a mother, especially for you, your only child. you raised him as a single mother. at most words but our condolences to you. >> thank you. >> judge jeanine: pat, tell me about your son shawn? >> what is there to tell. they killed him. he was working over there doing i don't know what he was doing. he never told me what he was doing but all i was trying to find out is what happened with him. >> and how did you find out, pat, that your son had been killed in benghazi? >> at 12:30 at night i got a telephone call saying your son is dead. >> judge jeanine: there was any more information that you received that the time? >> at that time, no. all they did was cover the basics, you know, your son is dead and was killed in this attack and we'll find out more as we go along. >> judge jeanine: and when was the last time pat, pat, that you saw

pat buchanan? >> john, if mitt romney wins this election, the debate performances of barack obama will be responsible for his victory. in the first debate barack obama was listless, he looked like he didn't even want to be president again. in the second debate, he deappreciatated his two most priceless assets, one is the dignity of the oval office, and the second is his likability. he came down out of that pulpit, that bully pulpit t.r. called it, and got into a big brawl with mitt romney. and i think he deappreciatated those assets. on romney's part, john, the debates have served one critical function. the country has seen him, and it has come to believe that the caricture of him created by the effective ads by the obama campaign all during the summer that he was a super rich guy, uncaring, you know, cheating on his taxes is false. and so i'll tell ya, history will say if mitt romney wins this election that he won it in the debates. >> eleanor. >> well, pat is right to the extent that the obama ca

pat collins is outside the park. but we begin with dan hellie on the field where it all happened last night. can they pull it together tonight, dan? >> this could be the biggest night in d.c. baseball in 80 years. of course, if they win this game, they advance to the national series. that is, if they win this game. the game starts in about 4 1/2 hours. the stadium is empty. i'm sure there are people starting to trickle in outside. gio gonzalez will be on the mound facing adam wayne wroiwri. in the ninth inning last night, jason werth just epic at-bat against kyle lohse. and on the 13th pitch, he goes yard. that's the 14th postseason home run for jason werth. but his first as a national. and the biggest home run in nationals history. it wins the game. a walkoff home run for the nats. so they advance to game five, due in part to jason werth. >> that's what it's all about. that's what you play all season for. that's what you work all winter for. and you get to spring training early for. we've got a chance tomorrow to ta

>>pat: no, regionally.d today it could while not affecting who wins the electoral votes in new jersey, new york, connecticut, whatever, it can affect the popular vote total because people in those states are saying, well, the president will win anyway, do i need to vote. whatever. so remember we have a lot of these places where people are saying, well, you know it will not make a difference. that could impact the over all numbers. >>neil: when the president's approval rating jumps for whatever reason you said something interesting it doesn't mean the other guy's approval has moved. could you have a case where both are sliding at the same time? >>pat: romney is in ohio raising goods to send to people and that is a heck of a good idea. that is the best he can do. he is not president. the president is locked in, but the problem with these things, people are smart, they want the federal government to what it can do but it is not a foreign crisis, unless it is a katrina like thing this is a governor, this is chr

biden or ryan pat buchanan? >> they both made the case both parties have been making for a long, long time. this debate, john, was an excellent debate. ryan came and presented himself as an intelligent, personable, attractive guy, who you would like a great deal. but the star of the show was clearly joe biden. he had a number of statements he made i thought were excellent. but the issue the next day is that joe biden was boarish, he interfered, interrupted, was contemptuous and condescending to ryan and this is the talk the day after the debate. people are saying ryan won, republicans are saying ryan won, democrats are saying biden wonment he rallied a base that had been demoralized by roughing up ryan as well he could. but the second part where libya, i think those things make it the democratic party the day after. >> that may be too high octane as a negative descriptive. >> i would's hold to it. >> you are watching too much cable news television, pat. i thought joe biden did exactly what he needed to do. he ra

bob melvin decided to honor pat's son with a patch on the team's jersey and when pat was told of the gesture before the game he broke down in front of everybody. the then pitched two-thirds of an inning of scoreless relief and when he left the mound he tapped his head, looking to heavens, holding back tears, and walked back to the dugout where jonny gomes gave him a hug. >> that's all i had. somebody looking down on me and helping me. these guys have been so awesome. if i don't -- i don't think i would have got -- got a lot of messages on twitter and text messages, i don't think i would have came back. mao mike game two in the alds and the tiger goes the last bite. the doug fister, lights out for detroit. 8ks, tommy milone did his part. six innings, at one point he would tie it ten in a row. now tied at one in the seventh. a's take the lead for the second time. pennington with a single that scored seth smith. 2-1 oakland. the a's continue to give detroit unearned runs. miguel cabrera, pops it up and coco crisp, oh, my. drops it. both runners score. 3-2 tigers, a's rally in the eight.

i'm pat collins. i'm pat collins. the story coming up.e. the middle class, who move our country forward. work hard. raise families. and keep america strong. but mitt romney's budget plan will hurt the middle class. raising taxes on the average family by up to $2000 dollars. while giving a tax break of $250,000 dollars to multi-millionaires. doesn't mitt romney understand, we can't rebuild america...by tearing down the middle class. priorities usa action is responsible for the content of this advertising. >>> 14 people, including three americans were killed in a suicide bombing in afghanistan today. it happened as u.s. forces were patrolling with afghan police officers. they were walking toward a market between a suicide bomber on a bicycle ran into them and detonated the bomb. >>> the war in syria that has killed as many as 30,000 people in the last 18 months claimed two more lives tea. today. activists said the syrian troops bombed a town just four miles from the turkish border and at least 12 people were killed including five children. th

now back to you. >> best advice out there, pat collins. pat, thank you. >> we've been in place talking about this all afternoon, all day. and now right on schedule, this is really intensifying, hitting us hard. >> we were talking yesterday between 5:00 in the afternoon and 5:00 tomorrow morning, this is the critical time. the winds gusting over 50 miles an hour. you want to make sure, just as pat said, good advice, if you're inside your house right now, this is where you need to stay. you need to continue to charge your phone, and if power goes out that you have everything around you that's available. we're seeing more power outages and more trees down. let's show you how things are out at the airport. it is simply nasty out there right now. and it's going to continue to be over the next couple of hours. once again, the storm making its way onshore, up there toward portions of new jersey. but this is not going to let up for us anytime soon. as of 5:00, the latest advisory still has max winds of 90 miles per hour. once again, this is very c

the agent never asked if she wanted a private pat down. >> i was just dumb struck. i just stood there while she ran her hands around my breasts and across them. >> reporter: she said those moments made her feel violated. >> i was so shocked i was numb and as the days went by i got angry and i thought i don't want this to happen to o me or another woman. >> reporter: we took her concerns straight to the tsa. despite advances in technology, a physical pat down is still necessary in some cases. she went on to say we work to make our screening process as minimally invasive as possible while providing the level of security they want. the agent should have asked dietrich if she wanted a private pat down and the organization is investigating and if they have a medical condition they can fill out a notification card as a discreet way to tell them. the cards can be downloaded online. >>> two weeks from today you will be soaking your feet in epsom salt. thousands run and walk to raise money for breath cancer treatment and research for those in our area. we are a proud sponsor

you worked for him, pat? >>pat: it was my first campaign, i was 21.politics and he was one of the most if not the most honorable with jimmy carter, that i have known, he was an american hero, a war hero, he stood up for principle, he led the food for peace, he changed the democratic party. he brought me to politics and hundreds or thousands like me, but a president, bill clinton, hillary clinton, gary heart, all kinds of people, he was a giant. i was never not proud. we lost. but we lost to a terrible, evil administration and i have never been more proud. >>gregg: he always said his time was off in 1972. >>doug: the timing may have been off but he would not play politics with his war record. >> he was a war hero. the lesson we draw from this, there is honor in politics. there is leadership. there is morality. >>john: if you look back 40 years later, the stand he took which was not popular, to be against the war, then, was not an easy position to take. the majority of people had been fooled over vietnam. they now is come to see what a disaster that war

that is all pat smith wants to know. her son, sean smith one of the four americans killed on september 11th on that terror attack in bengahzi, libya. sean smith, one of the computer specialists at the consulate there. a month after, she watched her son's casket come off a cargo plane, a month after she says everyone promised her answers, everyone all the way up to the president of the united states, she says she is still waiting to hear. still waiting for answers. waiting for a call. congress held hearings today. we'll talk about that shortly, but first, my conversation with sean smith's mom, pat. i appreciate you being with us. i'm so sorry for your loss. what do you want people to know about sean? >> oh, god. he was my only child. he was good. he was good at what he did, and he loved it. >> he loved working with computers? >> computers, radios. he was good at what he did. >> was that something he had done with a kid? was he always good with computers? >> we'll, when he was a kid, computers weren't out yet. and then the

pat buchanan? >> bayonets and horses i guess john. and that tells me that barack obama was fairly petty. >> no, it was when the president said when he visited israel as a candidate he didn't take along fundraisers and didn't hold fundraisers there. >> it was obama's juvenile joke about the 1980s and the remark about issue four. give peace a chance. we note the passing this week of former presidential candidate and long serving u.s. senator george mcgovern. the south dakota senator was a world war ii veteran, and prominent peace advocate. at the height of the street name war in 1972, senator mcgovern ran against incumbent president richard nixon. he lost in a landslide but went on to a long and distinguished career in the u.s. senate. senator mcgovern's spirit may have fortified mitt romney during the debate. >> let me step back and talk about what i think our mission has to be in the middle east and even more broadly. because our purpose is to make sure the world is peaceful. we want a peaceful planet. we want people to be able to enj

but first, my conversation with sean smith's mom, pat. pat, i appreciate you being with us, and i'm just so sorry for your loss, what do you want people to know about your son, about sean? >> well, god, he was my only child. and he was good. he was good at what he did. and he loved it. >> he loved working with computers? >> computers, radios, he was good at what he did. >> was that something he had done as a kid? i mean, did he always -- was he always good with computers? >> well, when he was a kid, computers were not out yet. and -- then, they were out, and he -- i got a computer and he started to play with them. and he started showing me how you could build a flame-thrower. and just by watching the computer. and it told you how to do it. so that is how it started. >> he lived in the netherlands. were you able to communicate a lot? he served in a lot of very dangerous places. did he always know where he was? >> i always knew where he was when he told me. for example, this time he was in the hague, and that is where he was stationed. he w

pat buchanan? >> bayonets and horses i guess john. and that tells me that barack obama was fairly petty. >> no, it was when the president said when he visited israel as a candidate he didn't take along fundraisers and didn't hold fundraisers there. >> it was obama's juvenile joke about the 1980s called and the remark about the bayonets showed him running a frivolous campaign trying to distract from real issues. >> i think i'll go with in our nation's all-volunteer armed forces have made a commitment to protect us and our freedoms. many of them will return from the war on terror with missing limbs, severe burns, or traumatic brain injuries. back home, these soldiers will begin a new battle, the often difficult journey to get their lives back on track. the wounded warrior project was created to help and support these injured heroes through programs that deliver needed supplies to their hospital bedsides, and through services that bring together veterans who have faced similar injuries and issues, to support each other during their recov

>>pat: i would have gone right at him.he townhall-style debate on tuesday? >> they both have different strategies. they will go about it differently. the president has a tough road to hoe. he has to not go as far as biden but he has to rally his supporters. some of those that left in the last ten days, get them back. be aggressive. respective. ask the questions asked. >>gregg: there is no question he can read a teleprompter well but he will not have that. if you just judge him when he speaks without a teleprompter, especially at a news conference where he answers questions, it is not pretty. >> he has a huge issue, that they do not have an answer for, we saw david axelrod with biden in the debate, and that is libya. they do not have an answer to benghazi. i don't think they can get through days saying the state department and the intelligence community let them down. i don't think saying "we don't know" works. >>pat: if that is what the president says, romney can say, mr. president, why weren't you in the oval office doing

great idea pat just forge those utility bills right. he actually proceeded to troubleshoot with the reporter about what documents could and couldn't be forged and he was asked on how to do that moran entertain the idea of finding some technically savvy person or just using microsoft word check it out. with. this like the software or. something. but i think the most classic part of the story is the fact that just this week rep jim moran asked the department of justice to probe voter fraud allegations in the state of virginia. guess he should have investigated his son first folks this is a district is so disturbing on so many levels and it's an acute depiction of how distressed our electoral system really is because you and i are going up against people like pat rand people who encourage illegal methods that only serve to move us further away from the legalities that define it the democratic system and that is why pat moran is our villain of the day. ever wonder what happens to confiscated items at the airport security checkpoints well it

one of the things pat brought up is the wide garbage door opening i guess it's an issue you guys callsoft story? >> exactly. >> what is that? >> it means the upper floors are rigid and in an earthquake the building will wanted to drift sideways a certain amount. if the upper floor the rigid and it doesn't occur there, it occurs on the first floor and if it leans so far the build willing lose stability and collapse. that's one of the projects the city is working on to try to come up with an economical efficient way to retrofit the doors so they don't become projects unto themselves. >> i think there's a limited likelihood in the middle of the block, buildings are going to collapse. you have buildings on either side holding it up but it's going to pound -- >> the term pounding was used a lot and it was in reference to the marina district ton homes in the corner were pound upon by the ad jay sent street. >> out into the street. >> either they fell into the street or they -- they basically collapsed into the street. >> these soft story building where you might have option for garbage door

did this change anything in >>pat: no. if this was the first debate the selection over and obama would win. it was romney's task was not the same as the first debate. that first debate was decisive. now we have an election where he did what he had to do, and you can see if the last poll, if obama does not give the traditional presidential incumbent bounce, the beginning of the week, it is katie bar the door. >>neil: why didn't he get a bounce after the second debate, to --. >>pat: because romney on the economy and the issues that matter, the economy, the debt, all those issues, he did well. the president's problem is he, look, i said to you months ago, this is romney's election to lose and until october 3rd he was losing. now he is in it. we talk about ohio and talking with dave, but look what is happening in the states like pennsylvania, minnesota, states that had no money. if i said two weeks before the election in indiana in 2008, indiana and north carolina would go for president obama without have said i was crazy. >>n
