here is lindsey graham. >> this duration is -- administration is trying to run out the clock when it comes to benghazi. this is a story that changes by the day. the president has been awol when this comes to benghazi, libya leadership. they have been denying and deceiving the public. the person i blame above all else is president barack obama. he has oversold the dismantling of al al qaeda. he spiked the ball when bin laden was killed. he let these poor people in libya go into a death trap and didn't do anything about it. >> gretchen: the interesting thing here though when i think about this story and all the complications and the drip, drip, drip of information that comes out, it always comes back to one thing for me which is the four lives of these americans. if you are a member of their family, i mean, just put yourself in that position for a minute. in from all these other countries too. the decision should have made in time for these people not to come all the way to new york. now they find out 48 hours before they are going to do it now they are here. so it's kind of a bungled mess. >> brian: this mayor also said after the times square bomber this sounds like somebody is mad about healthcare. guy's knee jerk reaction. the crane flipped over it should have been big wind. you shouldn't have crane up in the middle of a record hurricane or monster storm. bill. >> steve: bone headed decision. >> brian: people weighing up in the cold without power thanks to sandy. incredible images you are looking at are have from stat ten island, new york where the death toll has risen to 22. >> everything is replaceable. the people -- i can't replace my family. dave briggs joins us on the ground in staten island where it's still quite cold. what do you see. >> freezing. devastating here driving through the neighborhood. it's heart-breaking. i just spoke with the local police officer from the nypd. he rolled down his window and couldn't speak on camera. he had tears in his eyes just driving through this neighborhood. staten island is what one state senator calls ground zero for sandy damage. if you look around, you can find out why. what once was a very popular restaurant is utterly devastated. the street has been wiped out. there is a massive pit in front of that restaurant. power lines laying on the ground. entire neighborhoods have really been utterly destroyed. wiped away. you look at the sidewalks all over staten island. they are just lined with trash. think are lined with debris. they are lined with mattresses, couches, refrigerators. all the things that people used to fill their homes with are now out on the sidewalk in the freezing cold. 106 people are dead in the united states. 22 have died here in staten island alone. where we are standing right now, it's not far from where one mom lost the grip on her two young sons age 4 and 2. they were washed aby the waters and found just a few miles from here. of course, they had both died. part of the 22 people on staten island who passed away. you talk about the marathon decision. people are thrilled that it has been cancelled because the starting point was here on staten island. now, some of the resources can get across that bridge, which would have been closed. what they are outraged about is by first off the local red cross has been a bit slow to get help here. 25 mobile units are starting to get some help to the people who need clothing. who need food. who need blankets and of course need gasolin three mobile kitchens are set up to start serving meals they can serve about 10,000 meals per day. they will start getting those underway today. and lastly, if there is one decision they are also outraged about, it is the gas rationing which will begin over in new jersey depending whether your license plate ends in odd or even number means you can get gas either today or tomorrow. lines still several hours long. we will bring you more throughout the show as we find some local residents who are trying to get back to their homes. most of them wiped out. you saw some of those homes. these are 3,000 and $400,000 homes. these may look like essentially a ghetto it is not it is a very nice neighborhood. it has been wiped out. people are devastated, guys. >> brian: all right, dave. we will check with you all show long as the sun comes up you will be able to see more and more. people are not thinking about long-term. they are thinking about today and tomorrow. all these hotels give you one day here, two days here and you are out. you have money on your credit card to put it on that hotel until fema can write you a check or red cross can help you out. >> steve: things will get better tomorrow night. the tens of thousands of people who came to new york city for the new york city marathon will be leaving presumably tomorrow night or on monday. perhaps some relief at the hotel. >> gretchen: we have four hours with you this morning. coming up very next. president obama celebrating the latest jobs numbers. our next guest says there is not much to celebrate. our economy is totally stagnant. what are the real unemployment numbers? he is here to explain coming up next. >> brian: while trying to rally up last-minute support. the president urges revenge against mitt romney. a strange word. what happened to siflt? do i say that every day? ♪ glory days
