it is something like the border rangers.capacity take on the role of border management. if they do the role effectively, then you will have much less trouble. they have neither the capacity to tackle the insurgents, and they don't have the logistics or the training. now the united states is providing that training through special operations command. i do not know personally about it, but i believe tremendous work has been done. . helicopt devices. it needs a whole lot of stuff to do counter-terrorism. we have an anti-narcotics force. we had a tremendous drug problem which we took out because the united states d.e.e.a. help us set up the anti-narcotics for me to say i believe if now, the united states ended the narcotic force so that the army does its own work and the insurgency does not get involved, that is already to go. host: back to the phones. plano, texas. liz on our line for independence. good morning. caller: good morning. wow. there's a lot of subjects here. first of all, i agree with the man earlier that said that

they are like the lone rangers out there. they can't accomplish nothing. host: mark skoda.guest: i think that's a good point. when you look at this movement, it is new. it is maturing. it is only one month. from the first tea party that took place in april, that one person changed the entire dialogue on the votes with respect to health care. let me be clear, one of the things we announced yerksd the ensuing liberlt, 501-c reform. and that would represent the first principles of fiscal responsibility, lower taxes, less government, certainly states rights and national security, and the idea is over time, over multiple election cycles, the tea party can begin to change the face of congress, particularly republicans that would caucus around core values. so you probably have that right. one person isn't going to make the total difference, but if we have a strategy and a way that we can energize the base, that would be a way to participate pailt. and there will be many ways in which the tea party will vote in people that reflect their values. when we announced the 501-c4 yesterda

ranger type units. the way to counter that, one of the way to counter that is of course with south korea's bonus sof forces. south korea only has two at their own sof forces to c-130s. they are severely lacking in their own airlift. when i spoke of this at a conference a year and a half ago at nyu, iraq scholar came out to me and said, you know, bruce when i was in the roc army owes a special forces guy and i remember having to set on a tarmac in way for an american c-130 to fly from okinawa to pick us up because we didn't have enough of our own. this boat is a problem. i thought about srbm at dr. long-range artillery. let me address that if i may. when it comes to long-range artillery, that is obviously as you guys know the north korea's think of artillery and srbm in the same mode, all run by artillery officers. those systems which you can see pictures if you go to nk daily there are some very good pictures on the recently. those guns, the most important thing that we have to do with those guns is our

we bought a new -- my wife and i bought a new ranger truck.ing ready to get on the interstate. i put my foot to the floor. it locks it in super grouper high. -- super duper high. it was frozen for 30 seconds. there are a lot of cars that have the same problem as toyota. you cannot mask this -- mashed these throttles -- mash these throttles all the way down to the floor and not have the stick. guest: these are issues that all car makers have been dealing with for years, not just toyota. throttles are now electronic. if it were mechanical, you would put the pedal to the metal and it would come off the metal. but things -- i would take your car in and ask them to look at the electronic controls on them. thank you for mentioning that it is not just a toyota issue. host: we have a comment from twitter. do you know anything about this? guest: there was an internal document that showed the atmosphere would be less friendly not necessarily because of the bankruptcy or the states that the government holds. the obama administration has been more active

ranger type units. a way to counter that, one of the ways to counter that is of course with south korea's own sos forces. south korea only have two left their own special operations forces time, ten c-130s. they are severely lacking in their own airlift. when i spoke of this at a conference a year and half ago at nyu, iraq scholar from the university came up and said, you know bruce, when i was in the iraq army as a special forces guy and i remember having to sit on the tarmac and waiting for them to fly from okinawa to pick us up because we didn't have enough of our own. this, folks, is the problem. attack about as rpms, long-range artillery. when you talk about -- let me address that if i may. when it comes to long-range artillery, that is obviously as you guys know the north korea's artillery and as rpms in the same boat. those systems, which you can see pictures at if you would end a daily person very good pictures on there recently. those guns, the most important thing that we have to do with those

it's the same plan that park rangers get. >> john, members of congress are in the top income bracketsof the country and health savings accounts can be a useful tool but the people who use them are folks who have a lot of disposable income. and the people we're talking about don't. henry? >> mr. president, i just wonder if some of our republican friends would like to have seniors on medicare have catastrophic coverage only. i would say the seniors in this country are people who are worried about this health care bill, they ought to worry if we don't do something. not only will we hear ideas of putting them on catastrophic coverage only. paul ryan has a proposal now to say that medicare recipients in the future ought to have a little voucher and they can shop for their own insurance. they can be prudent shoppers. yesterday i had a hearing with people who are supposed to be prudent shoppers. they are people from california who were told by anthem well point that their insurance was going go up 30%. 39%. could you imagine if you have to go shopping with your voucher and this private polic

rangers.e way to counter that, one way to counter that is with south korea's boehner -- own sof forces. they are severely lacking. when i spoke of this at a conference a year and a half ago at nyu, a scholar from the university said to me, when i was in that army, i was a special forces guy. i remember sitting on the tarmac to wait for americans to fly from okinawa to pick us up, because we did not have enough of our own. this is a problem. i've talked about as r.p.m. -- srbm, but i have not talked about long-range artillery. as you know, the north koreans think of artillery and srbms's in the same mold. you can see pictures of those on line. those guns -- the most important thing that we have to do with those is the ark kantor -- counter battle tactics. that is a very big concern. the mission was traded from the united states to the roc infantry units or the counter battery mission. the problem is -- and this is another issue the south korean military has -- they do not have the proper equipm

we are going on 36 years now and we have a great young son in ranger school, of all things.imagine having that rock on your backpack. the coldest winter class on record. [laughter] somehow i think he was seated between glenn davis and dr. blanchard. [laughter] >> i will ask the first few questions and we will get to the audience in a moment. in testimony before members of congress last week, directors of the u.s. intelligence agencies said that a new terrorist attack against the united states was "certain" in the next three to six months. can you help us to connect the dots between that assessment and your strategy in iraq and pakistan? >> another great question, let me start again, to be strategic about it. i will come down on what i think it was the the national intelligence advisor was trying to express. assess that al qaeda that we focus on so considerably -- let us not forget that the reason we are in afghanistan is very clear. we are there to make sure that it will not once again become a sanctuary for transnational extremists, like al qaeda, like it was prior to 9/11.
