jehmu green, tammy bruce, thanks for each of you having such a strong position on this. >> thanks. >>all eyes on the belmont stakes right now as california chrome will go for the triple crown. but when the pressure is on, many in the racing industry turn to irrelevant reverent, who has worked behind the scenes for decades. chief religion correspondent lauren green has more on the reverend's good work. >> because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life. >> belmont parks chaplain starts with a jockey devotional, prayers to help the workers. he reaches out to the jockries, riders and groomers and spends his day taking care of those who as chaplain is a divine calling, especially at belmont which has one of the largest work forces in the industry. >> this is your congregants here? >> absolutely. absolutely. from hot walkers to grooms to exercise riders. >> this is where you bring church to them? >> yep. absolutely. >> reporter: as triple crown bears down on belmont, chavez is carrying on business as usual, including meeting with california chrome's assist rant rant -

judith miller and tammy bruce is here.here has been iraq fatigue among the public in this country but what about the media? >> the media still loves to beat up on who was responsible for the iraq war and who is to blame for the current crisis and that is not helpful, jon. what the media should be doing is encouraging everybody who has a view of what to do in iraq to come forward and discuss it. but they are trying to shutdown dick cheney, liz cheney and all of the neo conservatives that brought us the war. >> even the president said one lesson we ought to learn from iraq is don't go invading independent sovereign countries. saying this isn't myault basically. >> everything in history-look we can look woo -- we can look at and blame it on everything but at this stage leadership requires what is needed in action now. it is a partisan argument as opposed to an argument not even based on solutions for journalist but based on the facts of what are transpiring now. there is genocide, chemical weapons, what is happening with liby

let's talk about all of this with judith miller, pulitzer-prize-winning investigative author and tammy bruce, audio talk show host. both are fox news contributors. tammy, are the media giving the clintons a fair shake or is there some piling on going on here? >> you know it is interesting. this is one of the problems with the clintons, particularly any leading democrat. the media usually does give them a pass. this is what has happened with the clintons. they're used to not being asked serious, difficult questions. just like obama is. what happens is, you get lazy and you get surprised when someone at npr asks awe question you maybe don't expect. even diane sawyer, at one point hillary seemed very perplexed with diane sawyer asking pointed questions which was the first interview. it is not a favor for a candidate. it makes them lazy. it makes them surprised. more difficult to answer questions because you're not prepared for them. i do think in this case not they're piling on to hillary. we have a very politicized media as my column in the "washington times." the difficulty reporters have wit

tammy bruce. former adviser to hillary clinton for president. tammy, do you believe him?no, it concerns me that this man could have a long career and to one has confronted him about anything this. is part of the problem and the republicans share some of the blame here but really it was shocking that performance and it was the -- this is certainly nonpartisan. every american should be concerned with a kind of smug entitled arrogance within the concept here of what we've got houses already referred, lois lerner for criminal charges to the doj. she's taken the fifth amendment which is her right but seems to be hey lot of things going on that the commissioner seems to not care about but the attitude i think is based in the fact that no one has been held accountable for anything throughout all the agencies, many of which have these kinds of problems, i mean an apology is just a decent thing to do for the american people at this point. >> richard, smug arrogance or simple, you know, look, we're sorry, two years of this stuff and happens to be around the time of the 2010 electio

tammy bruce with us as well, radio talk show host. welcome to both you of. line from "time" magazine. how the bergdahl story went from victory to controversy for obama, what began as an uplifting tale of a rescued hero has become a political headache for the president. how did that happen? >> well, i think what american people are seeing is, really the stark difference of what the options are that journalists have and that media has. on one hand you have the fact-based dynamic the apparently the white house didn't anticipate. the on the ground eyewitnesses that describe a desertion. the 2010 pentagon report that described this man walking away. e-mails sent to parents with a young man who was the alleged deserter who described his anger and disgust with america. on other hand you have opinions. you have opinion, that is now being moved to some degree by the white house, about, the swift boating as they have said of bergdahl by his fellow soldiers. the attempts to make this be about emotions and feelings, versus, the truth of the matter when it comes to terro

tammy bruce is a radio talk show host and fox news contributor.mily sussman is campaign director for american progress action fund, also the former executive director of young democrats of america. thank you both for joining us. >> thank you. >> let's look at the timing here. in 2011 the house ways and means chair, dave camp, sent a letter to the irs asking about conservative targeting. ten days after this, learner's hard drive allegedly crashes. there were back up tapes, apparently no attempt was made to retrieve the data from the tapes for six months and after six months, they're recycled. in fact, two months after this alleged crash, the irs canceled the contract of the company in charge of backing up that data, sonasoft, without ever asking them to retrieve the data. tammy, is this fishy to you? >> well, it is. as a matter of fact, a new poll shows that over 70% of americans obviously across political lines believe not only is that this is not true, but that the e-mails were destroyed deliberately. so this comes down to an actual issue for the

joining us is judith miller, pulitzer prize-winning investigative journalist, fox news contributor, tammy brucealk show host and fox news contributor. judy, let me start with you. how did this explode on the front pages yesterday without anyone seeming to notice? >> that is because no one has been paying attention to iraq, eric. i mean there have been a couple of reporters who have stayed in iraq, who have been covering the growing power of isis in the part of the country that is inhabited by sunnis who have been unhappy for years. when i was there as we were pulling out in 2010 you could talk to people who said we're worried about mall la iky. we're -- malaki. we're worry what he will do without the americans. but the american media are so busy playing the blame game, who is responsible for this debacle they don't even attention to a story there and available for all to cover for far too long. once we left iraq, iraq no longer existed on the map of the world and in america's consciousness. eric: tammy, the administration reassured all of us that the iraqis could handle it. that's why we're out
