in canada again not at all charismatic it's not a word you so say it was stephen harper but again he managed to connect with them on a very important point and i think that's what we saw with mitt romney in this debate right from the get go in his opening statement the first two minutes they had he really did grab ahold of of the emotional aspect of this whole economic. states by talking about real people and their problems and then he said wait into his five points here is my plan because he was really criticized after the convention after a republican convention on the fact that he didn't really make his platform clear and people didn't really know what he was going to be about his plan for i. mean what was your reaction to the debate ok i mean romney came out really quite stellar i must admit. he did mitt romney seemed to really know what the debate was about what the challenge was for him the challenge for him was to take the fight not just to an incumbent president but to someone who he has been lagging in the polls quite significantly in the recent past so he needed to win t

of course stephen harper is also built a bird member and he is involved with the north american leaders summit so a lot of these time a lot of the times. these guys might not even necessarily understand how they're connected with one another but they're certainly carrying out the bidding of the steering committee right where you see madeleine albright colin powell henry kissinger on the steering committee said these think tanks i mean a lot of neo con has a lot of people who've been out of politics par still definitely directly influence and policy really quick to wrap it up though dan and the trainer were reminded that this is something that the mainstream media of course has doesn't touch and i'm guessing they see fox and why is this and what does it say that the media's silence can be bought it about thirty seconds ok well yeah that's just it the fact is these guys aren't covering it enough because for the most part they are attending the meetings and they have a strict rule of secrecy and they are simply not allowed to discuss the things that are going on there and so there is a tig

laughter ] [ applause ] here's one from a joint news conference with canadian prime minister stephen harpero pay attention while actually thinking about the 1990s cartoon 'the animaniacs'." [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] here's another one from the same conference. this is the, "man, that cartoon was great. "the animaniacs" is a great title because they were animals but, also, they were maniacs." [ cheers and applause ] it's by his face. >> steve: just by his face, you can tell. >> jimmy: here's one here. this is, "hey, wait a second. i just thought of this. they were also animated. anamaniacs. whoa, it works on so many levels. ha-ha, yolo!" by his face i can tell. >> steve: the eyes? >> jimmy: this next one here -- this one's called, "remember that episode of "the anamaniacs" where yakko, wakko and dot go back in time and they're on the train where abraham lincoln is trying to write the gettysburg address. and then wakko, who talks like ringo starr, says, 'would you sign our autograph book?' and then the animaniacs help him write the gettysburg address. that's why my favorite speech

opinion poll shows a lot of unease, but it's ironic because what the prime minister of canada stephen harper has been in asia recently a couple weeks ago the four premieres were in china. what were they all doing? saying asia you're our market, we want to sell things to you. so it's a two way street here. >> the next step in the story is mr. petromas will sweeten the terms or severimply walk away. >> so are they shooting themselves in the foot? >> i think this is an odd decision on the part of canada. dan yurgin just alluded to it being a market for asian exports. and of course the united states is seeing a resurgence in its own domestic production of oil and gas. which isn't to say canada will be shut out, but the u.s. will become more self-sufficient. canada will see booming production of oil and gas itself in years to come and asia which is the biggest growing market is an obvious place. and to have a partnership with a company like petromas would appear to make sense. one wonders if there's domestic politics -- >> they blocked the lse bid. >> but you can understand that because these are

de los nacionales, y es que gracias al trabajo de los lanzadores gio gonzalez y stephen strasburg, el brío de bryce harperington lograron suficientes victorias entre abril y septiembre para que, a pesar de perder en el primer día de octubre, aseguraran el título de la división este de la liga nacional. a pesar de caer 2-0 ante los fili, los nacionales se apuntaron su primer título de división desde que se mudaron de montreal en 2005, gracias a una derrota de sus escoltas, los bravos de atlanta, por 2-1 ante los piratas de pittsburgh. washington, líderes desde el 22 de mayo, festejaron merecidamente su primer titulo en los vestidores, algo que no ocurria hace muchos anos a un equipo de basquetbol en la capital. contra todos los pronosticos, sin estar en la lista de los llamados favoritos al inicio de la temporada, los nacionales cambiaron la historia y hoy los vemos como la gran sensacion de la liga nacional. en la americana la lucha sigue, anoche en san peterburg la florida, alex cobb permitió dos inatrapables en siete entradas y ayudó a que los rays de tampa bay a derrotar 5-3 a los orioles de baltimore,

stephen strasburg apparently even did the limbo but not bryce harper. the all-star is only 19. he had to share some apple cider, nonalcoholic apple cider with adam la roche's 9-year-old son. 22 home runs he still can't drink the bubbly. minutes earlier the team celebrated on the field. fireworks, more shame pain. it was a moment -- champagne. it was a moment they dreamed of for six straight months. it was a moment they almost couldn't believe was happening. >> it's unbelievable. this town, this city, this team, it's speechless. >> in the spring nobody talked about us having a chance. we kept our noses in the game. every single guy stepped up. it's a huge accomplishment. we're happy to be the nl east division champs. >> we've come a long way. it's been a long year. we've done some good things. done a couple bad things but to finish on top is something i'll never forget. >> we've come a long way in a very short time. we have a long way to go. we've got a good young club. i think we should do this every year. >> playoff baseball means playoff merchandise. and this is the t-shirt t

stephen strasburg even did the limbo but not bryce harper. he's only 19 so he shared apple cider with la roche's son. fireworks, beer, more champagne. it was a moment that they have dreamed of for six straight months and yet even after 96 wins, the best record in major league baseball, it was a moment that almost the team couldn't even believe was actually happening. >> this is pretty unbelievable. to get us to this town, this city, this team, speechless. >> coming out in the spring, nobody talked about us having a chance. we kept our noses in the game. every single guy stepped up. it's a huge accomplishment. we're happy to be the league division champ. >> we've come a long way. it's been a good year. we've done some good things, a couple bad things but to finish on top is something i'll never forget. >> we've come a long way in a short time and we have a long way to go. we have a good young club. i think we should do this every year. >> reporter: every year, i think that's something nats fans can get used to. look at this. look at this beaut

harper falls to 1-15 at the plate in the playoffs. you heard davey johnson talk about the game tomorrow, annuation do or die. ross detwiler starts on the mound. he replaced stephen strasburg's spot in the rotation and now he's pitching to save the season. how about that for a story line? live at nats park, i'm kristen berset. >> that story line continues tomorrow. let's hope it goes beyond that as well. >>> meantime a whole lot of folks had a very tough decision to make around 1:00 this afternoon, stay at work or go to the nats game? if you did stay at work, you probably made the right call. however, some members of the local government decided a nationals playoff run, just too monumental to miss out on. we spoke with a couple of them during the game. >> we recessed the hearing, a number of requests from colleagues, people in the media, everywhere if we could recess the hearing and then reconvene at 5:00. so we've done that. >> i walked over here just to be here to get a little bit of the atmosphere and to be able to be here for the first game in washington since way before i was born. >> hey, you can't blame him, right? just to be clear council member jack evan
