. >> that is congressman jim mcgovern of massachusetts, a democrat, who along with republican walter jones of north carolina has sponsored the afghanistan exit and accountability act, which would set a firm time line for withdrawing troops. a couple of months ago, a poll said that 73% of the american people want us out this year. >> i think they will stick with the timeline that the president set. you have to remember why we went in and the first place, because of 9/11 and back at the taliban -- the fact that taliban held to that country and al qaeda had to struggle there. >> charles krauthammer this week -- "we could never have pulled off the bin laden raid without a major presence in afghanistan. the joplin was jalalabad." does he have a point, mark? >> charles always has a point. i think the point is missing here. you can make the case that osama bin laden and scored a major victory it with what happened in this country as a result on 9/11. not just the coarsening of our life here, the lack of trust, the over-security in our nation. the money out of our pocket, two wars that only are a

in thatense, jimmy mcgovern and walter jones, the two congress members pushing this, deserve support. i think the popularupport for the war in afghanistan -- >> you could have done all this without nation building. you could have had a military presence in afghanistan. you don't have to do endless counterinsurgency -- >> but take his part about the bases and so forth. >> remember when we were debating what to do, biden said we could do the military stop and targeted killing with a smaller base. we don't need to be trying to build afghanistan -- >> i suspect we will have a summer, a fairly active summer. i don't know if we can actually make progress. summer is one of the real war happens. after that, obama is on a pretty short leash about actually getting troops out because of popular support will erode enormously. it is higher at the moment but it will last for long -- will not last long. >> petraeus, mr. counterinsurgency, is now at the cia. >> does this mean -- i had the sense last week -- that the joe biden a scenario you suggest is the one -- >> look at the personalities, i think

you hungry for some free don't is our special guest tonight formally known as congressman walter freedom fries jones used to be now he's just hungry for a little peace in the middle east we'll sit down and try to figure out just how the g.o.p. confuse foreign policy with the congressional cafeteria buffet also joining us is maggie correll from americans for tax reform to explain what speaker boehner is up to with the debt ceiling and i'll tell you a little thing i'd rather be holding than gold and silver when things get really crazy around here i'll give you a clue this is my rifle this is my whole weight we're not in radio hand anymore are we here watching adam vs the man. we get into our heavier topics tonight i have to respond to a comment on the show from you tube from tuesday's up so own i doubt they wrote at all the people who bought gold silver guns ammo food when we started really urging them to have made lots of money and save money either how the hell are you knocking this in the face of almost a hundred percent certain future increases in food costs will you imply that people don't need t

walter jones and jim mcgovern, they are trying to say the situation has now changed.and we can save money and they say save lives. >> kate bolduan, reporting live from capitol hill. thanks so much. checking our stories, nearly two years after the crash of an air france plane, the body of one of the victims has been recovered from the atlantic ocean. the discovery comes days after the cockpit voice recorder was brought to the surface. >>> general motors is recalling more than 150,000 chevy cruze 2011 models. >> jackie pooper is dead at 88. he was nominated at the age of 7, the youngest nominee ever. >>> william and kate, the duke and dutchess of cambridge, as they are more formerly known. this will be kate middleton's first-ever trip to the united states. >>> let's talk sports now. sean bergenheim of the nhl's tampa bay lightning, an average goal scorer in the regular season and now he is tied for the lead. he scores to put the lightning up, 3-1 on washington. a better known scorer for tampa, mar marty st. louis seals the deal. they sweep the capitals and move on to th

and i think this is the effort that's made by walter jones, republican from north carolina, jim mcgovern, a democrat from massachusetts, and as you point out, two00 of their colleagues. >> woodruff: and as david said, more republicans. all right, let's bring it home and talk about politics in this country. there was a special election, a congressional district, new york state's 26th district, where we saw the democrat win in part, david, by going after the republican for embrags the paul ryan medicare proposal. what-- are there lessons from this? is it a one-time deal or what? >> i don't think it's a one-time deal. if you ask americans, "do you think medicare should be cut to help trim the deficit or trim the debt?" 78% say no, don't touch medicare. so medicare is pretty popular. when barack obama cut it, republicans went after him for death panels and all the rest. paul ryan and the republicans went after it. and democrats who have gone for ending medicare-- both charges are more or less untrue. nonetheless, they struck a chord because people want to keep their medicare. to me the depre

i'm pleased the amendment i submitted with co-sponsors walter jones, loretta sanchez, john lewis, ron paul, david cicilline, and peter welch was made in order. we have five minutes to describe why the president needs to clearly lay out to congress, to the american people, to our military men and women, and to our military families exactly how and when we will complete the accelerated transition of our military operations to the afghan authorities. five minutes, mr. speaker. not to mention why the president needs to accelerate talks to achieve a political solution and reconciliation in afghanistan. and why we need to have a new national intelligence estimate, not just a report from the national counterterrorism center on the leadership locations and capacity of al qaeda. five minutes. this defense bill would give the executive branch carte blanche to fight global terrorism anywhere by any means, but we don't even have an up-to-date n.i.e. on al qaeda. that's not debate, mr. speaker. quite frankly, it's an unsult. not to mention that if we add up the time of all the amendments, at best

pelosi: i thank the gentleman for yielding and thank him for working with congressman walter jones on this bipartisan amendment brought to the floor. they have worked again in a bipartisan way in a patriotic way, to ensure that u.s. troops are brought home from afghanistan safely and expeditiously. listening to the debate, it's interesting because i don't know that we're that far off because we all want to ensure the national security of our country. we all respect our men and women in uniform and the job that they are doing to keep us, the land of the -- to keep us the lan of the free an the home of the brave. we respect them when they come home as our veterans. but we have to know that involvement of nearly 10 years has serious consequences to our country. i had told the president of afghanistan on my recent visit this spring that each time i go there, i say the american people are growing tired of war. we're weary of war. we went into afghanistan in the fall of 2001. for about seven years, there was no plan. there was no plan on how we would execute what we went to do and how we wo

the record an article that appeared in the nation -- in "the nation" magazine that congressman walter jones and i authored. the speaker pro tempore: without objection, so ordered. the speaker pro tempore: with that, i reserve my time. -- mr. mcgovern: with that, i reserve my time. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman reserves. the gentleman from utah. mr. bishop: i would like to clarify with regard to amendment 61 by mr. conyers. mr. duncan of south carolina was inadvertently added as a co-sponsor to conyers amendment number 61, i want to clarify that mr. duncan is not a co-sponsor of that particular amendment. i appreciate the discussion we've had so far. i would like to remind my colleagues that if every amendment made in order in this rule were to have its maximum amount of time, we would have already approved a maximum of over -- we would have a minimum of 26 hours of debate on this particular issue. i am appreciative of the concerns of mr. mcgovern of massachusetts. i also want him to realize there are multiple amendments made in order dealing with this and similar subjects and i am

walters. miss i'm so educated. how educated are you on the street. >> there's some smack talk. >> okay, nene, describe your relationship off-camera with star jones. as trump has asked would you call her after the show? >> before -- during this process me and star would go to dinner together, we would go together, we double dated with my husband and her boyfriend her sxb my son kept her dog pinkie, and i was very upset when i saw that star didn't care about her friendship. i understand that we're doing the show, but if we're friends, we're friends on the show and off the show. i just don't think you have to be back stabbing to raise money for your charity. you are raising money for a charity, so do you need to cut everybody's head off? >> she office "was on "ellen." she had something to say. >> let's take a look because i haven't seen her. >> i heard that she said something like a caged animal. >> she did say that that she was intimidated by you. >> if i was star i would pull that card too. she pulls the education card. she's going do whatever at this point to be intimidated or be scared, but as much mouth as she has i don't see the purpose of her
