: i like wesley clark, too.cond effort to chin up excitement, the first pick was condoleezza rice. >> when the girls are not going to take you to the prom. you start to go to others to take to the prom. >> that's so true. when he picks rob portman, it's going to look really boring. >> jennifer: that's what i was saying to donnie during the break, craig. i wonder if drudge was getting this information sideways from the democratic side. after they do pick the republicans it's going to be a big letdown. craig, tell us failure prediction. >> rob portman. a day or two after the olympics. mitt romney is not a risktaker. this is not a man who is going to take a risk. i just can't believe it. and you look at history the risky running mate choices very seldom work in the end. it's usually the safe choices. >> jennifer: wait a minute craig, you say portman a day or two after next monday, tuesday a week from today? i'll put your name on my calendar. >> all right. i think he does it before the convention. i think they need

is a little known speech given by general wesley clark which he reveals that he was told back in two thousand and one that the pentagon had a plan for the united states to invade seven countries in five years and that story we put it out it did go around the internet but all of the mainstream news organizations ignored it this is very important because it puts syria on a list that was it was a priority to get rid of the assad regime long before there was any kind of uprising and i think that's very very important and it tells us a lot about the propaganda effort that is going on to sway americans to support what is being presented as a simply a domestic uprising very against a regime that is we are told is committing humanitarian violations so you think that it was the u.s. and can to change its frame all along why do you think that well again i'm just quoting general wesley clark the former commando of a commander of nato is as certainly a known and respected figure it would this would mean that he was making that up the says that in two thousand and one he was visiting the pentagon

former presidential candidate, retired four-star general, and former nato supreme allied commander wesley clark. he is a george patton. he is a douglas macarthur. but does he have what it takes to be a jeff probst? (laughter) just look at the sacrifice these t.v. heroes are making. >> for me, i'm going to be living out a little fantasy of being, like a warrior princess. >> kind of a once in a lifetime experience for people like myself to step in there and get in the strefrpblgs, so to speak. >> yes, once in a lifetime, other than all the times you could have enlisted. (cheers and applause) and still young. still very young. think about it. (applause) and, folks, this isn't just about ratings. executive producer mark burnett explains why. >> "stars on stripes" is an epic new show. it's about honoring our veterans. >> stephen: you hear, that iraq veterans? it's about honoring you. we can't do a parade just yet but we've got the guy from 98 degrees throw again grades with t.v.'s "superman." this is a 100% authentic war experience. >> we go on real missions. we receive real training. we go with rea

to be in this show really look at what they're doing should hang their heads in shame general wesley clark who ran for president of the united states and knows what real war is is actually hosting this joe the the most exciting if you will if you like war and violence moments are the trailer if you go into the show itself it's profoundly boring it takes forever they keep doing it over and over for team so you know there's the soldiers coupled with the many celebrities and they go through the same routine for guidance in the show and there's no risk to their life whatsoever it's a joke and they certainly as staring outrage in our team actually spoke to some protestors outside of the n.b.c. studio in new york city and wanted to take a listen now to what some of them had to say. we think it's it's an insult to the american people and especially to veterans and i happen to be a navy veteran to trivialize. war. it's a horrible phenomena but it's part of the american culture of war and militarism so it's understandable but can you imagine when kids see this show and they see it is people using l

wesley clark said at the top of the show, i am doing a series for one reason, to introduce you, the american people to the individuals that sacrifice so much for all of us. but the peace prize winning killjoys say, this program pays homage to no one anywhere. it is likening it to an athletic competition. and they say it is a glorification of service. let's look at a clip. >> it is more like a glorification of purvis. good night, everyone. thanks, everyone. sherrod, here is the deal. every military tv movie and show which there are tons glorifies the military service. why are these old hippies picking on the project? >> co don't get orders from desmond tutu, do we? first of all, that's the same show ozzy osbourne's son got off of because they couldn't do it because of his illness. i don't think it was worth leaving because it stinks. i watched it, he is a good friend of mine, but it is slow. it makes me want to root for somebody else's army. >> i don't. >> jedediah, president obama is a nobel peace prize winner. since he didn't, should he be impeached? >> absolutely be impeached 100%. noticin

. >> governor wesley clark fights for ethanol. >> in 2008 we paid $50 billion to the saudi government for imported oil. >> john: we're still doing it but we're paying you guys a ton. >> the point is the money paid on ethanol stays in the american economy. >> john: it does but at what cost. congress realized that ethanol tax credits were a bad idea but they kept in place rules mandated oil companies use ethanol in gasoline. at least our money stays in the country. >> it makes me feel good. i'm keeping the money in america. >> all these programs are designed to make people feel good. we're going to help the farmers and going to hurt the oil producers with ethanol. we don't look at rising price of milk and excessive fertilizer that were used to produce corn. >> john: food prices are higher because so much goes to ethanol and we consume a lot of corn. corn syrup helps create the meat we eat. steve who raises cat sl mad the feed costs more because ethanol has been both mandated and subsidized. >> if you want to do the same thing for the ethanol guy, you have to mandate that absolutely ever

and wesley clark insists they aim to honor and salute those who serve in the armed forces. desmond tutu and 8 other nobel laureates have called for its outright cancellation. the letter says this program pays homage to no one anywhere and expands on an inglorious tradition of glorifying war and violence. the requires among the nobel peace prize winners. by am not among them. nbc says the show is staying on air. megyn: unbelievable. >>> you heard of tennis elw?

then you get a mission given to you by general wesley clark, which is kind of impressive. >> that's coolion and then you go on the mission. once you complete your mission, your time is what separates the men from the boys. >> you're inspiring real weapons, live fire. >> all live fire, no stunt men. it was incredible. you're doing things -- i did a lot of things i never thought i would ever do. one of them is jump out of a perfectly good helicopter. i never thought i would do that. by the end as we went on and on -- you told me to jump out of a helicopter now i wouldn't blink. >> the point of this, though, is charity. >> everything we compete for, every bit of money coming out of this is for law enforcement, first responders or military charities. and because when military guys are out there serving, it's not just them, it's their family and everyone around them serving as well. we're trying to shine a light on these guys and show you how amazing they are. they are so impressive. especially in the heat of battle it is amazing. all the money goes to their charities or our charities we choo

general wesley clark has been a good friend and i wish he about not hosting this.gorylorifies the military operations with no-risk whatsoever. it makes a farce out of our military while pretending to honor the troops. get a load of this non-sense here here is a piece of this show. >> going in on a helicopter is unreal. that made it sink in. we are doing this. i am psyched. >> i have been here for a few years. i am so looking forward to taking on a real mission with real weapons and real ammunition. if you could see what the sold life is really about. >> but wait a minute. none of that is real. it's not a real mission. nobody is going to fire back. you are not going to know what a real soldier feels at that like. you get shot through the gut, you might feel like what a real soldier feels like that happens in afghanistan all the time. there is nobody shooting back. second of all, what it does is sanitizing it for the audience like, oh, look at this. the military is fun games. boom-boom, boom. the bullets they have with cgi, you want to talk about the most fake realit

"outfront" tonight wesley clark and foreign policy spokesman for mitt romney. let me start with you, general clark. do you think he did the right thing? i mean obviously there were gaffes. there's no denying that but did he get more out of it than he lost in some of those hits? >> i think ultimately that's something the american people are going to have to decide. when something like this is done in a campaign, most say no big issue, then there must be some horse race reason why he's leaving the country. so there were a lot of discussions about taxes and did he pay the right taxes and so forth and why he won't release his returns and there was a bain campaign. probably the way it's done and i've been involved with the campaign for a few years, somebody said, hey, you need credentials, go out there, see some allies, have a great trip you. know you're going to go to friendly countries, britain, england, poland. they freed themselves. you made the comment about the russians. the polish don't like them historically. go out there, look presidential, don't say anythi

but nbc and the show's host retired army general and former presidential candidate, wesley clark theyim to honor and salute those who serve. so a couple of interesting points pop up here. first, unclear how nine nobel laureates were so clued in so early to an nbc show before it even premiered. i'm still trying to figure that one out and who put them up to this. second, it is unclear why the nobel peacemakers were not similarly upset by the new g.i. joe film and battleship the movie which glorify war even more than "stars earn stripes" does. the letter's nine nobel signers don't include one of their own, president obama himself. no word yet on how they view the nobel peace president's practice celebrating his own success in the kill mission that took out usama bin laden. i'm just saying, jon. back to you. jon: sometimes forget he won that prize. >> reporter: yeah. jon: dennis kneale, fox business network. thank you. jenna: we'll turn now to a startling spike in the death of children. what is behind a record number of kids dying after being left inside cars in recent weeks. we'll tell y

with is talking to over 60 staffers who work on a number of different campaigns including eldora, wesley clark, john kerry, john edwards, barack obama, tom vilsack, hillary clinton, pretty much ought major democratic party campaigns. and then because they really focus a lot on the obama campaigns and the word of the democratic party that some of the former staffers did and i will talk about that in a moment i also interviewed nearly the entire internet department from the campaign back in 2004 as well as all of the senior management in the managerial positions in the obama campaign new media division in 2008. and in fact a lot of those folks are now working for the president election day 2012 so it is current in those ways. second, we work together as an enormous amount of writing folks have been active in democratic politics and new media politics more generally and sort of tried to read them together into a coherent history and that is great. one of the wonderful things about on-line publishing is that they set up blogs to talk about the work they did on the campaigns or to speculate on sort

to over 60 staffers to work on a number of different campaigns, including al gore, howard dean, wesley clark, john kerry, barack obama, tom vilsack, hillary clinton. pretty much all the major democratic party campaigns. because i really focused in lot on the dean and obama campaigns and work for the democratic party that some of their former staffers did, i also interviewed nearly the entire internet department from the dean campaign in 2004, as well as the senior management on the obama at new media division in 2008. in a lot of those folks are now working for the president's re- election bid in 2012. these trees is quite correct in that way. -- the history is quite correct in that way. -- current in that way. i have tried to weave these together into a coherent history. one of the wonderful things about online publishing is that folks set up blogs talk about the work they did, what to talk about what works and what did not. you have access to what works and what did not in a real and vivid way. i engaged in participation with the barack obama campaign tools, looking at functionality of the
