It follows the ouster of the Muslim Brotherhood from power and mr. Obamas president of choice, mohammed morsi. The violent and deadly clashes between the militaryrun government and Muslim Brotherhood and backed protesters to the wall and they are now responding. Continuing with violence and all likelihood this friday, when morsi supporters reportedly will conduct what they call a day of martyrs. And no relief for president obama in syria either. Assad Opposition Forces claiming more than a thousand civilians were killed in chemical gas attacks earlier today on the outskirts of damascus. The alleged attacks come exactly one year and one day after president obama famously warned assad that chemical weapons, the use of them, would be to cross a socalled red line and prompt u. S. Involvement in the now 2 1 2 yearlong struggle. Its a conflict that has seen nearly 100,000 syrians killed. The white house predictably today, after repeated questions on red lines, from the White House Press corps, confirmed they are relying on a United NationsInvestigative Team to provide answers before they act on those red line threats. What we think is most important for right now is there actually happens to be a United Nations chemical weapons Investigative Team on the ground in in syria. They were just granted access to the country yes i believe. Given the reports weve seen overnight what may or may not have taken place in syria, we think it is important for that Investigative Team, to be given access to that area. Lou president obama said our next guest to cairo to meet with egyptian president Hosni Mubarak at the height of the Tahrir Square uprising back in 2011. Today he is stress stressing the need to keep ties with egypt from further deteriorating and maintain a relationship with those responsible for its future. Joining us now is frank wizner. Frank held numerous diplomatic posts in a career that spans eight president s, serving as former u. S. Ambassador to egypt, india, zambia and the philippines. Ambassador, good to see you here. Thank you. Lou this is a, a frightful moment for the United States and for this administration. Seems every initiative this president has taken in libya, in egypt, and towards syria, has been disasterous and in fact, not only not supporting the interests of the unitedtates, but making bad situations woefully worse. What do you think . Well, lou, i think we have to be a little bit fair about it because lou i want to be utterly fair about it but i want to be straightforward bit as well. The middle east is going through a period of revolutionary transformation. Since 2011 we have seen governments across the region fall. Ethnicities turn on one another. Religions turn on one another. There is only so much the outside world, any power can do. Lou then why would that outside power, premier among them the United States, not recognize the reality that you have just spoken . Well, id like to think we have recognized it but trying to find a set of policies thats going to stick in turbulent seas like this w is really tough. That said the United States has a couple of objectives it has got to maintain. It needs toob be certain its on the sign of peace in the region to protect the borders of israel. It needs to be on the side of democratico transformation. And even where thats rough and it has to be a longterm objective we stick with it. We need to be on the side of the eventual economic recovery of the region if there is ever to be stability. These broad principles ought to guide our policy, those are wise principles but they seem subordinated to one that is a traditional first practice, first policy of the United States in diplomacy. That is to pursue the interests of the United States itself. Of course. Lou democratic transition, in which youre dealing with authoritarian idealogical groups such as, the Muslim Brotherhood, we are encountering still al qaeda, a force that is throughout the region growing in power, which this president , to be fair, as you suggested, has, basically implied, has been on the run, for the past year, yearandahalf in fact we find quite the opposite to be the case. Why are we seeing so many confused, confounding statements and policies eminating from this administration . We understand the complexities but why assert our policies if we can not in fact implement them and pursue good for our interests as well as those countries that have been loss, standing partners especially in the case of egypt . Each oft the principles thati mentioned earlier are in the American National interests. What we want in the middle east is to make certain that the United States is, basic, interests in the fly of oil, security of israel, our privileged position in the region are protected that goes without saying. Now where we are in egypt today is really impprtant. Were at a moment of inflection. A new government backed by the military has taken control. And i am absolutely of your view, lou, if i understood you correctly, the United States needs to support the restabilization of egypt and end to violence and to see this government succeed and get on with its work. The news today out of cairo is beginning to get a little bit better but well be faced with more violence. We have to f have the grit to stick wit, see this new government through and make certain that we can work with it, not tear our ties to it. I will be the first to oppose anyone who says, the way to work with egypt is to break our economic or military assistance ties. Lou and yet, we are hearing precisely that from a number of prominent democrats. The white house disputing it. They convened again today. Nothing was forthcoming on egypt. Mi we are, looking at a, without question, a are ever a continued irbox it seems to be tinderboxxwith egypt. There Inflection Point at hand yet there is great confusion. Does this president support general sisi. Does this general support the a secular military . Does this general support the Muslim Brotherhood trying to cast some rhetoric around it as if it were, not simply a fundamentalist islamist or R Organization but rather a, a club for democracy that just happens to reside in egypt . This is baffling. Egypt has been a priority in the early 1970s when president nixon began brokering a deal between israel and egypt. We produced peace, that peace between the two countries is stuck. Egypt has been a terrific it keeps its canals open. Lf war. Its skies clear. We supply our forces in afghanistan. Thanks to our support that weve received from the egyptians. We need a steady policy, not with one government or another but policy of cooperation and a policy that permits egypts stability and economic development. Stability can flow from consensus government and therefore the priority for democracy is a good one. Lou i couldnt agree with you more and i just want to add to that two points. One is, that it is certainly not constructive to have a number of republican, socalled prominent republican senators, at large calling for the end of aid and the breach of, with this secular military government its a peculiar at best and a president who does not articulate or explain his policies. I hope you would agree with that. And the Inflection Point was two years ago when the president sided with forces he did not understand nor did i know and threw away a 30year ally in the form of president Hosni Mubarak. Its a difficult, its a difficult thing to rely on the judgement of an administration who has done that and participated in throwing the egyptian country into chaos. Why should we expect better this time . Lou, there is much in what you say i can find agreement with but i do recall, and i was in cairo in 2011. Lou right. The spring of 2011. The egyptian people that asked Hosni Mubarak to step down. It wasnt barack obama. The egyptian people decided, he should step down then. They then made lou if i may, he was not first. He followed that call with his own. Let me end because the egyptian people have a strong voice. They also spoke about the rule of the muslim brothers and what kind of distortions of the commitment the muslim brothers made to the development of democracy in egypt, brought millions of egyptians on the street, and therefore the army to try to sort this out and move egypt back into a sustainable position. Lou i would hope that john kerry would call you and get some can counsel on how to emulate your clarity. Perhaps his boss as well. Frank, thank you for being with us, mr. Ambassador. Thank you, sir.

Lou my next guest recently led aborter patrol guided tour of the texasmexico border highlighting what he describes asg woefully inadequate resourcs and he has introduced a Border Security bill that requires operational control of our border with no less than a 90 apprehension rate onre the entie border with mexico over five years. The full house could vote on his measure shortly after the summer recess. Joining us is congressman Michael Mccall, chairman of the House Committee on homeland security. Mr. Chairman, good to have you with us. You took a number of congressman with you on that tour of the border. What are your thoughts and their reactions . Well you know my thoughts are this ad hock approach weve used over the last couple decade, throwing money at the problem without a National Strategy, without a plan, plugging holes up, we went to san diego. They have good fencing there. They have technology but theyre getting around that with the boats. Tucson has wonderful technologies. All it does itlo presses them to other points. Now the new point of entry now is texas. The rio grande vally, immigration flow is up 55 . Without a National Strategy and a plan, to dictate where we put those resources, were just going to continue to throw money at the problem without a real solution. Lou and your proposal, this administration to be clear has rolled back 287g, the cooperative legislation that, that authorized regulation, that authorizes cooperation between the immigration authorities, the Border Patrol. And, local Law Enforcement. This administration wants no part of it. Your law, your bill would encourage, that cooperation. What has been the reaction . Well, local Law Enforcement are a force multiplier. The ones on the border have a valuable role to play. The border sheriffs, endorse my bill. They suuport it because it gives, this bill gives them a voice, a stakeholders, as to what the National Strategy is going to be. And what the Implementation Plan is going to be. Along with board of governors and coast guard and boarder patrol and National Guard as well. It brings everyone together to create this National Strategy we they ever had before. We never done this before. We never had a plan to implement it. We never had metrics to measure results. We have own 75 billion at the board other over the last decade with only a 44 success rate. That is abysmal. We can do better than that we also define operational control as a 90 apprehension rate which i believe is amechiefable within two years. I spent three days with the Border Patrol chief mike fisher and he agrees. We can get this thing done. Lou, you and i talked about this issue for quite some time, ever since i got elected to congress. Now is the moment i think we can finally get this thing done. Lou as you know i endorsed whatever, to whomever may care i endorse the approach taken by the house of representatives, incremental previous, in which, your committee, congressman bob goodlatte, the chairman of the house judiciary, moving ahead with, the rules and regular Order Committee hearings on these issues which has been denied in the senate. And for crying out loud, senator Chuck Schumer has even endorsed now the incremental careful, deliberative, thoughtful, approach that you, and your fellow members of the leadership in the house have chosen. Are you stunned by that . I am stunned. This comprehensive idea to throw together a bill in three days in the senate which is a misguided approach that throws almost 50 billion without any rhyme or reason totally arbitrary is a total waste of tangs payer dollars. What we want to do is a fiscally responsible to have a strategy and a plan. You know what, gee, real Novel Concept as Founding Fathers envisioned, we go through the committee process. We have hearings. Go through committees. And then piece by piece develop legislation thoughtfully in a smart way i think will finally resolve and provide solutions to a very difficult, complex issue. Lou Congress Comes back the 9th of september. So we look forward to your return and watching those hearings take place and legislation move throughin the congress, as was intended by our forbearers. Congressman, always good to talk with you. Up next, president obama welcomes the nfls only Undefeated Team to the white house. Took a while. Well taak about that. In the chalk talk, well talk about why this president seems to like earning popularity points, more than, well, working on the secondterm agenda, if it is still in existence.

Lou the white house is doing its best this week to divert our attention to bright shiny objects as best they can. Not necessarily so effectively. They announced yesterday that first dog bo, has a little sister. Portuguese water dog named zohn any. For some unknown reason he chose to honor the 1972 Miami Dolphins sat the white house. Nfls only team to win a super bowlin after going entire Team Undefeated that hasle never been celebrated by any president. That is taken care of now. It is done. Why now . It is not the anniversary of their accomplishment. It is not regular football season yet. Maybe our celebrity president just wants to meet as many celebrities as he can while he is still living in the nations most coveted address. Who is next t on the white house guest list . 96 Chicago Bulls . Maybe find eight new york yankees. There is White House Deputy press secretary, josh earnest. How can somebody earnest josh. Anyway, talking about promoting the president s Upcoming College bus tour. The bus tour is three days away, but i welcome your interest in this bus tour but because i think it is going to be, hopefully both fun and informative. Lou fun and informative. We are talking about president obama, right . The president sure is a fun guy. He enjoyed a nineday vacation on Marthas Vineyard where he played six round of golf. That sounds like fun to me. But lets hope a few unattended matters dont spoil his mood as he returns to the oval office. First, egypt, does appear to be falling apart. He might think about that a bit. Actually do something. Syria, besides cut off aid, if he has which he denies so we dont know. But well learn more im sure in time. Re and syria, where he wanted, assad to get the heck out of there. The syrian mess is worsening. The death toll at more than 100,000. There are no prospects of any kind of negotiated peace. And no ones been held accountable of course in the benghazi scandal. The terrorist attack which four americans died more than 11 months ago. Secretary of state john kerry says everything is boffo though. Four state Department Officials have been paid on administrative leave, reassigned. Of course unemployment. This is, i think his order, it is not ours because this would be my number one, unemployment. Unemployment rates did rise in 28 states last month. We need to get this great, vibrant, Free Enterprise capitalist economy going. Mr. President , you could provide some strong, positive leadership in that direction. , if youre of a mind to. If you care enough about those folks who have had to weather this horrible, horrible, economic cycle. And fifth, welfare. Cato institute informing us all, fun and informative facts as josh ernest said, federal welfare programs, state welfare programs combined, paying more than minimum wage jobs in 35 of our states. Imagine that. And sixth, there are those scandals. The irs continues to stonewall investigators looking into their targeting of conservative groups. That scandal you remember, mr. President . And attorney general holders tenure at Justice Department never ceases to outrage and to offend those who would like to see this nation represent once again the reality that we are a nation of laws. And wen wonder if this fun president of ours is in a sufficiently informative mood to at long last tell us what he was doing the night of the benghazi attacks . What he is going to do about the irs . The Justice Department . Et cetera. We cant wait to find out. Were going to find out how fun and informative mr. Obama can be. Up next, dont mess with texas. Attorney general eric holder however doesnt get message. He is lost all of, nearly all of the cases that he brought against texas. His department of justice, i should say the Obama Department of justice, going after texas voter i. D. Laws again. Copd. If youve got it, you know how hard it can be to breathe and man, you know how that feels. Copd includes emphysema and chronic bronchitis. Spiriva is a oncedaily inhaled copd maintenance treatment that helps open my obstructed airways for a full 24 hours. You know, spiriva helps me breathe easier. Spiriva handihaler tiotropium bromide inhalation powder does not replace fastacting inhalers for sudden symptoms. Tell your doctor if you have kidney problems, glaucoma, trouble urinating, or an enlarged prostate. These may worsen with spiriva. Discuss all medicines you take, even eye drops. Stop taking spiriva and seek immediate medical help if your breathing suddenly worsens, your throat or tongue swells, you get ves, vision changes or eye pain, or problems passing urine. Other side effects include dry mouth and constipation. Nothing can reverse copd. Spiriva helps me breathe better. Does breathing with copd weigh you down . Dont wait to ask your doctor about spiriva. And ill never desert you ill stand by you yeaaaah yeah. So thats our loyalty program. Youre automatically enrolled, and the longer you stay, the more rewards you get. Great oh ill stand by you wont let nobody hurt you isnt there a mpler way to explain theoyalty program . Yes. Standing by you from day one. Now, thats progressive. Lou a fascinates lou fascinating interesting legal development. Kansas and state of arizona yesterday filing lawsuits against the Obama Administration accusing the administration of preventing states from enforcing laws that require proof of citizenship when a person registers to vote in those two states. Joining us now, the man who filed the lawsuit, kansas secretary of state chris coback. Chris, good to have you with us. This case, the attorney general makes it clear, he hates voter i. D. Laws. What are your thoughts about prevailing . Ut well, it is interesting. The, the holder Justice Department has gone on a war against the states. I mean it is not just texas. It is any states they can find a way to bring some legal action against, a state that has photo i. D. Like we do in kansas, they take action n this lawsuit that we filed, were suing the federal agency known as the Election Assistance Commission and this lawsuit was actually invited by Justice Scalia scalia, when he wrote the Intertribal Council state. He stayed states do have the right toht require citizenship when the Voters Register and he said the way to do this is sue the agency and make the agency sue the federal registration form. Werein following the path and blueprint that Justice Scalia laid out for the states. Lou aclu already theftenned you with legal action. Yeah. Lou saying documentary proof of citizenship law prevents thousands from registering to vote. How are you going to defend, if you must . Well, there arguments have very little merit. They cant show that people are being prevented from registering to vote. In fact the socalled, thousands are just individuals who have started theed process of registering but havent yet provided their proof the citizenship. They havent shown anybody who is unable to give proof of citizenship. Ho our law was drafted even if you lost your passport, we have free birth certificates in kansas for purpose. You cant get yourth birth certificate we still have a way to submit affidavits and get proof of sit shen ship to the state so you can register. Their argument doesnt have any merit. That doesnt stop the aclu, they threaten a state, threaten a city. Were not backing down. Lou youre not backing down. Neither is the state of texas or other states that passed voter i. D. Laws. Are you coming together as a group in court . Well, in this case in texas well certainly stand ready to assist texas in any way. We provided assistance when texas went up on their photo i. D. Law the first time by giving them statistical evidence from kansas. The argument holder is trying to make is a ridiculous argument. He is claiming photo i. D. Hurts people of one skin color than people of another skin color. The evidence doesnt prove that. The evidence comes out it affects all of us equally. Surprise, surprise we can get a free drivers license or free state i. D. If we dont have a drivers license for purpose of voting. Lou attorney general greg abbott pointed out studies show minority participation rates overut subsequent elections have risen at a rate and participation rates are higherra than that of white citizens which invalidates everything the obama Justice Department is saying. Yeah. Lou when will we have a resolution . Well, were hopeful in the kansas and arizona lawsuit were hopeful we can get at least some action out of the District Court very quickly. We would like to have this, change made so weha can have our proof of citizenship laws fully ing effect without any loopholes best 2014 election. I dont know how quickly the lawsuit against texas will move but im pretty confident that the one in kansas and arizona should be able to move within the next six months. Lou and again, as chris cobach points out, the issue is whether or not states can move the eac to change the federal form which is a foundation of the decision. Chris, great to see you. Thank you very much. Chris cove vac. Remember when president obama was the darling of the National Liberal media . Well, no more.

Lou the Republican National committee today made it clear that Hillary Clinton is in their crosshairs. The rnc just release ad video asking whethere cnn and nbc will include coverage after clinton scandal and Film Productions about the former first lady . It alludes to Hillary Clintons brother lobbying president clinton for president ial pardons, the fourth in a series of audios videos attacking clinton, perhaps. Author of the bestselling book the amateur, ed klein. What do you make of this . Firstn of all this new hit job presumably by the New York Times ons the Clinton Foundation . It struck me as a shot across the bow because what they alluded to was perhaps some illegality. Certainly ethical, questionable behavior on the part of the people running the foundation. Ao cross currents of donors who are also part of tte foundation yet also involved in businesses that bill is involved, bill clinton is involved in. The whole thing reminds me of the clinton presidency, big ideas, were going to save the world. Chaos, messy,eth i canally questionable. Lou and lots of relationships of longtime clinton, you know, associates, staffers, friends, distributors, importantly. Deficits in the foundation but all the while, as i read the article, im thinking to myself, why is the New York Times doing this . A shot across the bow certainly but also at the same time, perhaps to inoculate the clintons as she gets ready for 2016. What do you think . One of the things i find really puzzling why hillary would make her Campaign Headquarters at the Clinton Foundation here in manhattan . Instead of separating herself from this very questionable operation that bill clinton has been running all this time, it seems to me she is handing her adversaries and enemies a cud gill to beater with. Lou republicans are getting ready for 2014 and they havent declared victory 2014. Havent got a great big motto. They have up in their meeting in boston talking about making it happen. They dont define it. E whats it . Lou dont tell us how. They have a lot to explain and a lot to, to energize their base which is precisely what it has been for the past two president ial elections. That is, 37 identifying themselves at republican, they got a lot to energize . They certainly do. The clintons meantime are actually piling up hundreds of millions of dollars in potential donors. They have got an organization in place. She will be very formidable candidate. Lou you may have just answered your question which is why in the world hang out at the Clinton Foundation. Ed, thanks so much for being here. Great to beac here. Lou appreciate it. Up next, the new book, this town, reveal much of what we dont want to know about the washington establishment, exposing, well, a reality that is precisely what you probably think of washington.

Im joined by the books author, New York Times magazine chief National Correspondent mark leibovich. Congratulations one the book is it. Thanks. Lou four weeks. Youre roaring. People seem to be liking it. I dont know how popular iw am inside d. C. Maybe i will get run out of town. Lou we recommend his book. 24 town to you, highly. Recommend you buy it. Recommend you read it because it really reveals the folks that, that we all feared were down there. Its become, in the words of tom coburn, a very conservative senator from oklahoma. Lou re yeah. A permanent feudal culture of hangers on of elected officials. Of professional selfperpetuating careerist politician, media, usual suspects. These are the people who run your country or think they do. Lou who run the country. Who are an important part of the process of governance itself. Whether it be from the fourth estate. Our chief white house correspondent, ed henry prominently featured. I dont think ed likes me these days. Lou he is sincere. I said as much. I will believe him. Eds a good guy. Lou he is a great guy. Tammy haddad, i have known tammy almost 30 years. She is part of the furniture. Lou she has created, sse has created herself and created a role which you described so beautifully in the book. She has made washington work for her. And there have been people like her for decades. They have been party hostesses or showee runners are whatever u want to call her. She has built a very successful business getting Media Companies to pay her a lot of money to do whatever it is she does for them. Lou tammy had dad, is a woman of immense intelligence and energy and, just a passion for all ty hat is politics and media and power. And shes lou money doesnt hurt. Money doesnt hurt. She is transparent. I have a bias towards transparency. People who are not afraid to say what theyre in it for. Theyre having fun. At the core this is not a fun book. Something at the core people in america are outraged. I want them entertained and read it and laugh and that is all good. I want to be outraged. Farther out of washington you get the needer to sort of understand this is. Lou how can, such a contemptible group of people be at the same time so compatible with one another and do so little for the rest of us . They, because the system rewards it. This is a system in which washington can work very well for washington. We have a city that was allegedly built on public service, right . This is a culture of selfservice. It is democrats and republicans working together to basically milk this feudal culture, to become very successful and washington has become the wealthiest community in the United States by far. Lou there has been no recession in washington, d. C. No. Lou housing prices are through the roof. Re absolutely. Lou and this administration, i, almosts every day, i ask why in the world dont we know what the president does . Why dont we know his daily routine to the degree it is routine . Why dont we understand from the president himself, why dont we have an articulation by this president of his vision, a explanation of his policies . Even context would be helpful. This administration was supposed to be different. This was the hope and change campaign. And i think one of the narrative arcs ofan this book has been the fiveyear period since he was nominated for the democratic nomination in 2008. As the president. Look, washington changed him and his people. I dont know how sincere they were. Maybe they were to a point but i dont think this is a partisan book in any way. There is, this is the ultimate pox on both your houses book because these are, this is a professional class. Lou houses, garages, neighbors. But, yes, but beyond that it is their part of the political class, right . This is a system that has been allowed to thrive by any number of factors. The growth of government. The flooding of money into washington. Lou this is the question that results. Is there anything that can be done to change what is a cesspool by any definition . I hope so. I, this is where, i sort of say, look im a journalist. I hold a mirror to a culture and hope it creates some outrage or something. I dont have the chapter at the end where i have my 10 bullet points how to make the capitol a better place. Lou good for you. Almost always obligatory with an editor. I dont have a good editor i guess with all due respect. I have, look, outrage is great. I dont know if it exists anymore. People have been rightfully outraged. Lou this is a wonderful book to acquaint you what you should be outraged about. It is fun too. Lou and it is fun. Definitely. This town. We recommend you buy it straight away. Loudobbs.

President obama trying to divert attention from a number of scandals, meeting today with a 192 Miami Dolphins. Joining us to 1972, joining us to take a look at the president s mind and his refusal to take responsibility were joined by psychologist dr. Jeff gardere and psychotherapist julie haines. Thank you for being withg us. Pleasure. Thank you. Lou lets start with, lets start with, what is this president thinking . What is going on . He has a contradiction over a major issue that is aid to egypt. Yeah. Nt lou you with one of the leading democratic senators. He is being called out on. Yeah. Lou he has got scandals everywhere. The economy, he seems to be completely out of touch with it. Whats happening . Well it is simply the lame duck syndrome. He is almost home free, if he can get through this presidency without a major scandal and as you know, many people have been reporting that there will be a scandal. Something will happen between himself and other members the white house. He is saying, look, let me just go ahead and take care of the business here. Let me get through this term. Lou justst hiking nor reality. Let me do what i want. Look, we know, we know as the president , as president s before him, it really is trying to get through unscathed and protecting the legacy. That is what every lame duck president tries to do. Lou julie, you cant argue with that. Thatat is what every lame duck intends to do. Give us some insight, what is motivating, well is anything motivating him. The man is not exactly gaining the reputation for being the hardest working president in american history. That is for sure. But, lou, let me tell you, it is human nature to avoid responsibility for difficult situations and pass the buck and i think,t he is trying to just get out, you know, avoid taking that responsibility and that is human nature but not very responsible. Lou welln i mean you got to think responsibility is the essence of Anthony Weiner and Elliot Spitzer because they are seeking to serve the people again. Julie, give us a little insight into their minds and their hearts . Because they obviously care about us deeply . Yeah. You know, i think people go where theyre comfortable and, in a fight of the sex scandal lou well they both apparently, Anthony Weiner apparently more comfortable alone than with but. But, theyre comfortable in the public eye, in the political scene and so it is not surprising that theyre going to go back where theyre comfortable. Where they can get the attention and the praise. And you know, if they get reelected, doesnt that mean a scandal is behindel them and thy can move forward . And i agree with that because i think a lot of whats going on clinically with these individuals especially spitzer and weiner is theyre getting a chance for a doover. Before they really screwed it up. Now they have an opportunity to try to save their reputations, go back and do it the right way, protect the legacy as you saw with weiner he is is still not able to do that because of is impulse controlno issues. Lou impulse control issues, i havent heard it put that quite that way. That is analystic, julie, right. Sounds like. Lou a problem with photography. Right, a, absolutely. Lou i have to say, ive seen something i had not sign before. Three new york newspapers coming out and saying this weekend, denouncing Eliot Spitzer for being a cheat and a liar. Oh, yeah. Lou the New York Daily News for the prostitution scandal. For turning in a dismal performance as governor. Rat lo. He was also unsuccessful as attorney genuining none of his prosecutions. And beingo interested only in feeding his insatiable ego. Julie, do you think that will have any influence and are you amazed that three newspapers, the new york, well, two of them at least, the New York Daily News and New York Times, were boostings spitzer every step of the way as ag as governor . Whatsst happening . You know, ive got to think that theres a part of us that is, kind of wants redemption, wants somebody to rise above their mediocrity or their poor choices. I dont understand, why some these folks are still in the public eye but, you know, i wonder, what does that say about us as americans . Lou you dont have to wonder. When you look at what were reading, what were watching, who we have become as a people, i mean we have retreated to the lowest common denominator in this country as a society. Weom dont have an aspirational set of leaders in this country. Well, and i think whats going on, people are very disgusted by the fact that spitzer with his history, yes, i have to look at it as a shrink he does have some very severe emotional issues he has actually begun to work on and tried to become a better person. Ive spoken to him, not in therapy but have met him in hallways and talked to him about it but the important thing here is, people look at spitzer and look at Scott Stringer who has done all the right things. Who is a moral guy and they feel that it is an injustice that spitzer is winning. Lou jeff gardere, thank you very much, doctor. Julie hanks, thank you, doctor. Thanks for being with us. Good night from new york. Of all my interviews with bill gates, the one youre abou to see is most controversial because he says a lot of the good we do as a country is threatened by paralyzed washington that will do no good for this country. The primary target, foreign aid. The other target, people who want to block it. Hoe of republicans who criticized this the equivalent of good money after bad. Today, gates firing back
