affront to the first amendment he also brought up numerous times the hypocrisy the people like rudy giuliani howard dean fran townsend and rendell can take money from the enemy k. and yet because they're in positions of power the laws don't apply to them and you see it's not a matter of it's not a matter of whether you agree with the ruling or not or whether you believe the any case should be to listed or not it's a matter of principle here if this logs this in are we all treated fairly under this justice system or not and the mainstream media has been pretty complicit in completely ignoring the hypocrisy in this case by having these ads play nonstop on their networks to the left of people like glenn greenwald the salon dot com with the center for american progress just to name two other examples to remind everybody that a something just doesn't seem to fit so it's also not surprising that we haven't seen the mainstream media that plays these ads all the time not mention that ed rendell former governor of pennsylvania and in fact an m.s.n. b.c. contributor is being dell is being investigated

well we've seen example of made out of some of these people so now i doubt that howard dean or rudy giuliani are going to give him fifteen years sentences but a sign of a leak and unity won't be upheld by this administration in all cases perhaps we will see that although of course there are plenty of other examples out there where they've allowed it to slide wall street being just the most obvious example but i do wonder if the mainstream media's going to cover these investigations at all the same way they cover political sex scandals the same way they beat the drums for war with iran the same way if they fan the flames of fear when it comes to investigations of support for terrorism when it comes from some lone wolf twenty year old muslim living in the midwest of course not i predict that they're going to choose to miss. all right so let's continue talking about the fallout from the massacre of sixteen civilians in afghanistan legislate by one of thirty eight year old u.s. army staff sergeant walz name has still not been disclosed president obama promised a full investigation and then secre

the voters in any given meet rudy giuliani the seven members of the board of governors. currently five, we have two empty seat, we hope to get those filled soon. the seven governors have a permanent vote in every meeting. the president of the new york federal reserve bank also has a of course to the beginning of the system and the fact that new york remains the financial capital of the united states. of the other reserve bank presidents four of the 11 vote and at the end of the year they move on to another set. so again, there's a total of 12 otes in any begin meeting or policy. but the entire group participates in the discussions. now here's the federal funds s interest rate that is the normal tool the fed uses for monetary policy. you can see that at the end of chairman greenspan's term and the we were in the process of raising the federal funds rate in an attempt to normalize monetary policy after having easier policy earlier in the decade in order to help the economy recover from the 2001 recession. but in 2007, as theroappear, pan the sub prime mortgage market, the

rudy giuliani said it's not a prison, it's a concentration camp. so people are not being moved from camp ashraf to camp liberty. and it's my goal just like i hope it's yours to get people out of iraq and get them somewhere in the world where they can be safe and be free and they can reunite with their families. we have two situations going on. we have the situation with the fdo is still an issue. it's been going on a long time. i have worked with your department trying to find out consistent, on a consistent basis. is there new evidence? is there more evidence, why they should stay on the fdo? one way or the other, what it is. been to every briefing in homeland security and it's your office has sponsored regarding the designation and why they're on it. and i'm not convinced they ought to stay on it. we continue to wait now so much so that even i think yesterday a lawsuit was filed again to get the state department to pick a horse and ride it, as i like to say. meanwhile, during this time, there have been two situations in camp asrof where people ha

but there are a lot of fanatic autos prosecutors noticed other prosecutors like rudy giuliani and richard brumenthal won high office by racking up impressive conviction records. >> they'll comb books and find something. >> this could happen to you. they can take any law they think you broke and take you do-to-trial. and whether you win or lose you're going to lose because by the time you're done fighting it, you're broke. >> the government never goes broke. >> they don't have so spend a million dollars. >> i heard they spent $5 million. >> how much money does it take? >> i've had clients who spent $10 million. >> can i not even imagine how much money they spent prosecuting my husband. >> and the feds tried jill's husband, jack and lost but instead after poll jizing they threatened to fine him $37,000 a day. the terrible crime did the government say they committed? trying to build a house on their own property. >> the county gave you permission to build? >> they did. they inspected the foundation. and approved it. >> so you started to build. but a government-owned ditch fear by was clogged

used to work for rudy giuliani trying to sell him in the southern states.t is no surprise about santorum. as far as mitt romney, as gas prices rise obama's numbers go down. mitt romney is the candidate that really appears to know something about fixing the economy. after all he's a very business background. i pick him even though he is taking a bump in the south. he is weakness is connectable with some of the voters. this election will be determined the moderate and independent voters. that is who go to going to take away. >> he has a long way to go for that one. thank you for coming in this morning. >>> the time now is 26 past the top of the hour. coming p governor chris christie called him an idiot. >> after you graduate from wall street you conduct yourself like that in the courtroom your rear end will get thrown in jail, idiot. >> ywe will hear from that guy. here's the question. why is the federal government ready to hunt and kill the bald eagle, the american bald eagle? this is no joke. >> this day in history john f. kennedy is buried at his permanent

we know they are suggesting the president can control the price of gas is like suggesting that rudy giulianie some politicians who would rather ignore the facts and launch the takes. is that right? >> we know we have a lot of politicians that are detached from reality. we have candidates that say we will have $2 gasoline. maybe we will, but it's unlikely they can do anything to make sure that happens and there's no evidence anywhere else in the world that's possible. remember, we were at the same situation back in 2008 under the bush administration. gasoline was at $4 a gallon and just a short time later it had gone down by half. the american public is pretty well attune to the fact that gasoline prices don't respond to the laws of supply and demand. a lot of this spike has been because of speculators that are betting on turmoil in the middle east cutting down oil supplies. there was one study that says if you have a ford explorer and you fill up $10 of that cost is attributable to speculation. i think the american people understand it's complicated and decide there's no one person to blame

accusing this president of causing the rise in gas prices is the equivalent of suggesting that rudy giuliani provoked anything else. the president looks as though he thinks he can win this argument, but can he? >> it depends how high gas prices go. if they hit $6 a gallon, i'm not predicting that, then it will be bad for the president whatever he says. there's some political scientists who track gas prices over the years and find they have a direct correlation to electoral outcomes. he needs to fight this to a draw. conservatives throughout who are angling they can for iran are doing all they can to raise gasoline prices. >> if you listen to rick santorum and mitt romney, they get pretty close to suggesting that we should go bomb the straits of hormuz. what would happen then? >> if you discount the tensions that we have around the world in ie roon and alran and also in s discount a lot of those other thing, you can't put this on the back of this president or any other. if the president could control the supply and price of gas, jimmy carter would have had a second term. >> these guys talk ab

you see newt gingrich like rudy giuliani talking about 9-11, every third word is newt.org. and he just made me say it, too, but romney had never before told anyone to go to mittromney.com. >> i can't wait to see the rachel surge in contributions. go to newt.org. >> give a rachel gallon, it's a penny. >> is he the least tea party looking person you've ever seen in your life? >> look at him standing there like the gentile gentlemen, he's not one of them. >> steve, what are we watching where the wives of the candidates in the case of gingrich and romney take the microphone first? this is new. >> it's -- look i think ann romney is an enormous asset for him i expect you will see more of her in a close race going forward. >> let's go to mitt romney speaking to his supporters in massachusetts. >> thanks, guys. >> go mitt go, go mitt go. go mitt go. >> she is -- she is the best and that was my son tag with her and his wife jen and their children, ali and joe, thomas, great to have my family to be back in our home of massachusetts. it's wonderful to be able to go home tonight for th

. >> prosecutors noticed that other prosecutors like eliot spitzer, rudy giuliani, senator richard blumenthal won high office by wrapping up impressive conviction records. >> the regulations around here t they will comb the books and they will find something. >> this could happen to you. they could take any law that they think you broke and take you to trial and whether you win or lose you are going to lose because by the time you are done fighting it you are broke. >> of course the government never goes broke. >> they must have spent a million tax payer dollars going after you. >> i heard they spent 5 million. >> the amount of money it takes bankrupts the typical person. >> i have had clients who spend $10 million. >> i cannot even image how much money they spent prosecuting my husband. >> the pedestrians tried him at lost. but instead of apologizing for getting it wrong they threatened to fine him $37,000 a day. what terrible crime did the government say jack and jill committed? trying to build a house on their own property. >> the county gave you permission to build. >> yes, they did. >> a

rudy giuliani believes it helps. >> instead what he should be doing is convincing the iranians that he'sious, that if he had to, he'd bomb the hell out of them. they should believe this. in fact, the best way he's going to avoid bombing them is convincing them in their heads that he's capable of doing it. >> physically capable of doing it is not in question. but after 11 years and over $1 trillion spent on two wars, one based on heated rhetoric on weapons of mass destruction that didn't end up being there, the u.s. appetite for conflict is unsurprisingly low, and iran knows it. what will the u.s. really do? we'll get to that in a moment. first to tehran where today was the first election since the 2009 disputed presidential election. cnn's ivan watson is there. i spoke to him right before the program and asked him what turnout was like. >> reporter: well, what's pretty incredible is watching the state media here. it is just wall to wall coverage, patriotic music, video of lines of people voting and government officials celebrating this calling this everything short of a divine victory. t

. >> rudy giuliani said last week on this show that the president needed to talk explicitly about the threat of bombing iran, using the word bomb, and if he did so then he would never actually to do it. mike rogers on the house intelligence committee said this to john king just a couple days ago. >> i think this would be better done with rolled up sanctions, really tighten them up fast, don't wait until july, crank everything down, continue to put pressure on them, and have a real option of military consequence for iran. they don't believe it -- iran, i mean -- and neither does israel. we've got to change that equation if we're going to have an impact on iran backing down from their nuclear weapon program. >> once you know where the red line is, what are the consequences. has the united states and the obama administration been clear enough about the consequences, does iran believe them that military action will happen? >> erin, the positioning of military assets in the gulf, assets that did not exist to the extent they exist today which gives the president all options to pursue is eno

>>le well, to me, it does feel like the diallo case, and i lived in new york under rudy giuliani as mayortant fear of this, a young black man would be shot in this case, by undercover police officers and suddenly the victim's past with law enforcement would come out and a total justification of the shooting as if somebody deserved it, and never any sympathy of the families and the mayor would not go to the decedent and said, i feel your loss, but that era was so stark for those who lived under the giuliani era. it feels like or almost like black male life is undervalued and devalued unless as you said earlier, it is complete ly the ron goldman standard. when he was killed with nicole simpson he was found with his knuckles raw from trying to beat the person, and nobody ever said, well, he did hit them. >> i think that if trayvon martin did struggle for the life, and if there was a struggle and if any of what does n appear to be true from the video we have seen, there is more pathos than we have seen, and what reasonable person would not struggle for their life in that circumstance. >> well

what was rudy giuliani able to do that roosevelt wasn't? >> rudy's command was much smaller.d times square. teddy roosevelt was the most combative, aggressive. he thought he could purify america by starting with the most corrupt city in the country. his scope and aggressiveness is astounding. he failed but he built a national reputation that led toe great things for him. >> where did this drive come from within him? what prompted it? ego? >> i think he did have a bit -- we hate to use that word with him because we're so proud of his conservation and trust busting. but he was a big of a moralist, prude. when his brother was caught fathering a child out of wedlock, his only brother, he said, you know, the shame is just unbearable. maybe it would be better if he were dead. >> oh, wow! >> yeah. >> it's something to me it wasn't just casino owners and prostitutes who thought this was a bad idea. most of the people in new york wanted him to lay off. >> not surprising. >> absolutely. and this was a city that had more irish than dublin. more germans than almost any city. they were a

rudy giuliani's mayoral victory speech november 3rd, 1993, barking at people in the crowd, pointing peopleit. >> you can watch it all morning. that, of course, spawned one of the great sketches of chris farley's career where he played young andrew on "saturday night live." >>> tom brokaw and chris matthews, they've been up all night and ready to keep talking. also, our good friend, former senior adviser to the mccain/palin campaign, nicolle wallace. [ jennifer garner ] there's a lot of beautiful makeup out there. but one is so clever that your skin looks better even after you take it off. neutrogena® healthy skin liquid makeup. 98% saw improved skin. does your makeup do that? neutrogena® cosmetics. hi, i just switched jobs, and i want to roll over my old 401(k) into a fidelity ira. man: okay, no problem. it's easy to get started; i can help you with the paperwork. um...this green line just appeared on my floor. yeah, that's fidelity helping you reach your financial goals. could you hold on a second? it's your money. roll over your old 401(k) into a fidelity ira and take control of your per

former new york mayor rudy giuliani said it best, it's not a jail, it's a concentration camp. even in prisons we allow lawyers to see their clients and the families to see their loved ones, but not in camp liberty. and remember these people in camp liberty, these iranian dissidents, have committed no crime. they have violated no law. you can't help but think that god old maliki has something to hide again. the word is leaking out there's not enough drinking water in the camp, there are ruptures in the sewer system and they are having to be fixed by hand bit residents. iraqi guards have their will at the camp and they wander around with no rules. they violate the privacy of these iranian dissidents, many of whom have women. what's more, no one, not even the u.n. that is confident that wants political refugee determination is made by other countries, those countries will accept these dissidents into their country. why? because our state department incredibly has the m.e.k., these folks in this camp liberty, designated as a foreign terrorist organization. in fact, maliki told mem
