a little off topic here i apologize phyllis. i know sometimes i get a little risquÉ but folks know me too well. this is a story about a family where there are two sets of children. there were the teenage children and the younger children and as happens, kia you have younger siblings. the younger kids were picking up things from the teenagers and repeating them in trying to be cool. some of the stuff they took was off-color. one morning the two little kids came downstairs for breakfast and the father is serving them breakfast. he says to the little boy what would you like to have for breakfast? i little boy says, oh what the hell i might as well have some cornflakes. he reaches out and slaps the kid and says i don't want to hear that again in this house. if i hear that again you will get worse than this so never say that again. he turned to the little girl and says now what would you like for breakfast? i she said you can bet your asked to won't be cornflakes.

phyllis was right. she wrote a book and i dedicated this book to phyllis for her book in the 60's. the republican party does not run a real conservative traces. the republican party has no future and that is the major theme not to underestimate the degree to which the obama people have changed fundamentally and forever the nature of presidential politics. thank you. [applause] >> it's great to see you again, dr. corsi. thank you for coming here. you have written a wide-ranging but i followed you would throughout the book to the wide-ranging talks of israel to the birth certificate. it appears to me that the world of you that you have mentioned with anti-semitism on my perspective deception and the obama administration has created a downward spiral of american culture. from our research and data that you have gathered and you and ken have written. is it true from your research on the trend that have been continued on the downward spiral and if so, is there hope for what you call true conservatism? thank you. >> america for sale was one of my books exploring the free trade with china

weapons report and its potential implications, we are joint by phyllis bennett from the institute ofolicy studies in washington, d.c. the u.n. report is out. do we know anything more than we did before, and what about it when it comes to those who are to blame? >> well, the report has a very specific mandate, which was to determine what was used, whether it was a chemical weapon, what kind of a weapon, and that was pretty much it. they did determine that it was sarin, it was used in large quantities. they were also asked if possible to determine how the weapon was delivered. they do have evidence that have, but this notion that it somehow confirms earlier claims that it proves somehow the regime is responsible i don't think bears up. it certainly is possible. that is certainly a very likely possibility, but in the text of the report itself, there is language, for example, that says during the time we spent at these locations, individuals arrived carrying other suspected munitionses, indicating that such potential evidence is being moved and possibly manipulated. now that's what the n

let me start off with you, phyllis, on your remarks here. you're saying illegal, immoral, dangerous. that seems to be in line, if not the same use of words we're hearing from some lawmakers and the american public at this point. >> i think that's absolutely right. there is massive opposition, and it's growing on a daily basis. we're hearing from offices on the hill that their calls regarding syria are coming in 600 to 2 against 1,000 to 1. >> but why is it illegal specifically? >> it's illegal because, as i think my colleague will agree, the only two ways that a country is legally allowed to use force against another country is either immediate self-defense, which this is not. we've not been attacked by syria. or if the security council agrees. now, we know that's not going to happen. the u.n. charter was designed that way. it was designed to make it difficult, designed to make it hard to get support to go to war, particularly lly at a mome when we know from the intelligence information we're getting directly from the white house, they use t

attack syria but paris says it will wait for washington to make the first move political analyst phyllis bennis thinks the white house was forced to turn to congress for support after most of its allies refused to weigh in. he was prepared to go without a united nations resolution which of course would make any military strike illegal but he was counting on certainly the brits he was counting on the u.k. to come on board i think he was quite blindsided by that decision by the british parliament and then to find out that nato said no and that the arab league said no france isn't quite enough as an international allies i think all of that plus the fact that almost two hundred members of congress have signed letters in recent days demanding that there be some consultation with congress the whole question of what happens the day after is not on the agenda we can say all we want our intention is a narrow targeted strike just a day or two this is not a major major military campaign well it's not a major kill military campaign until it is what is of course syria tries to retaliate against one o
