willie nelson, jay-z, robin thicke, and a guitarist, and this young man with a dreamy picture alongsidectly what they were doing when they put that particular photo of dzhokhar on the cover of "rolling stone." >>> i want to move on to this, and that's detroit. we look at detroit going to bankruptcy. hang on a second, maybe not. amy, is this political? we were talking about one of the council members this past hour, and she said this is political. >> i don't think it is political. a city manager was put in charge to try to get that city's finances in order. as he said, this has been a slow moving train wreck for many decades, and we have detroit that's $8 billion in the hole because of these pensions. >> she said it's a republican governor. >> certainly, governor rick snyder, he's a republican and put this man in charge to sort it all out. the city manager is trying to do what's best for detroit. unfortunately, the people who are going to feel the brunt of it are pensioners, who had planned their entire retirements on these pension plans that are going to be ripped apart. if i were over
