and that is what roger clemens should have done he should is said go take a flying leap.rying not to use bad word here. but he should have told the politicians this is none of your business. major league baseball should have said this is not something if the federal government to get involved with, but as long as everyone in our society keeps moving down this path, where everything has to be decided by government, well, sooner or later as we talked about plane -- many times we become greece. >>neil: that is what we are waiting to find out. thank you for being so quick on your feet for changing gears. and now whether roger clemens remains great in the perception of the eyes of kid and he jones of -- and many fans in this country would like to believe he may have used enhancement performing drugs, we will find out. it is something here, when a great great american baseball could be facing the possibility of spending potentially the rest of his life in prison. that is extremely unlikely but we waiting for a verdict that will decide all of that after this. in the meantime the

jim rogers standing next to me now, you say as much.here that leads you to believe that's going to be just fine. >> first of all, they've got huge savings, huge reserves. largest creditor nation in the world. staggering amounts of money. they saved a lot of money for a rainy day. when it starts raining, they're going to spend the money. these are hard working, energetic people on the rise again. don't get me wrong. there'll be setbacks. listen. you've got other things to worry about than worry about china. >> is that the most misunderstood part of the china story is the pickup in internal consumption and that's going to continue to grow? >> there is pickup in internal consumption, no question about that. i have no idea what the most misunderstood part -- >> there's so many. >> china's larger geographically than the united states. it's a huge place. >> what commodity do you like the best right now? >> well, agriculture. i'm much more optimistic about agriculture than anything else mainly because it's so depressed on a historic basis. sug

i injected those drugs into the body of roger clemens at his direction. >> that was not roger clemenstaken steroids or hgh. >> all right. so roger clemens was second. brian mcnamee was the prosecutor's start witness. he said he injected clemens repeatedly and roger clemens denied it. the jury sided with roger clemens and finding him not gltd on all six counts. it looked like he had no credibility at all, jeffrey, with the jury. >> certainly not. it's worth noting the whole steroid controversy, whatever else happened, it has not led to successful criminal prosecutions. the barry bonds case out in san francisco took years to come to trial. he was convicted on very minor charges. those charges are on appeal. he got no prison sentence at all. he got little home arrest. remember, this case began with a mistrial because of prosecutorial misconduct. this was a second attempt by prosecutors to convict clemens and complete indication for clemens. lance armstrong was investigated for years. no charges ever brought. i think whatever the world thinks about steroids, this has nod led to successful

roger clemens found not guilty of lying. we will see how this plays out in the court of public opinion. >> that is the subject of our water cooler question of the day. >> this morning we asked -- do you think roger clemens' acquittal will make it easier for him to be inducted into the baseball hall of fame? >> what do you think? >> i think roger clemens is going to go when. he treated the media well when he was playing. >> that makes a difference. >> i think he will go in. >> first time? >> yes. >> businesses say they won't return in the same spot after a fire in mount vernon. >> a man is trying to collect a big insurance policy on the life of robyn gardner. >> your knee is susceptible to many injuries and women are more susceptible than men. >> there are some light showers out there. the big time heat is the big weather story. >> tracking fire activity in several locations. we gotta sell the car. where would we even start? get the car. hi howard. get in. hi, good to see you. start with an actual written offer when selling y

the verdict is out on the roger clemens trial. over to you. >> the verdict is not guilty on all six charges according to nbc news. a federal jury has found roger clemens, the baseball great, seven-time cy young award winner not guilty on all of the charges he faced of lying to congress. he was specifically facing counts of making false statements, two counts of of perjury and a count of obstruction of congress for telling a house committee in february of 2008 that he had not used performance-enhancing drugs. we now learned just within the past couple of minutes that the jury has found clemens not guilty. >> wow, not on all counts. i think that's a surprise for some people watching this trial. thank you so much. we'll see you soon. >> what will move your money? we'll get to that next. and we'll get information on housing and put you on the inside track. join us for closing bell tomorrow. i'll have an interview with the head of sanofi. find out which biotechs are setting the tone for the industry and where sanofi is setting its sigh

do you pick roger mudd or dan rather? cronkite sided with picking rather because of this foreign experience. he believes in the foreign correspondents. roger mudd had a family and did not go to vietnam. he rejected serving in vietnam as a reporter. he made his name doing largely civil-rights and capital washington reports. cronkite said he regretted it later. i write movingly after talking to roger mudd about mudd and cronkite's up and down relationship. the head honcho at cbs, after cronkite did a lack luster performance in san francisco, pulled cronkite from doing the atlantic city democratic convention of lyndon b. johnson. there was a duo to compete with brinkley. cronkite thought mudd was tried to take his spot. their relationship had a lot of ups and downs. it was very moving at the end of their lives. mudd was working at the history channel. his hearing was failing. at the end, cronkite almost tearfully said "you are a good man." they healed that relationship. >> he was born and raised in missouri. it was the hub o

roger pointed out how well that worked in europe. and there is increasing now talk, not just among republicans, but democrats as well, about the bowles simpson plan, or as i like to call it, the b.s. plan. and roger is right, i offered my own alternative because i want to make sure everyone is clear about what bowles simple sson ry did. among other things, bowles simpson raised the retirement age for social security, from 67 to 69. it cuts benefits for current social security retirees because it changes the way the cost of living adjustment, the cola is calculated. it increases the cost of medicare, increases cost sharing, shifts about $110 billion in costs to seniors and persons with disability. it would undermine employer sponsored health insurance as it cuts the tax expenditures, all these tax breaks, one of the things we should look at is if we can take this tax detection for employer provided health care and do away with that. if people really look at bowles simpson, this is really an attack to middle income people and those who
