That universal expression of sports anguish indeed resembling one of the worlds most feared and poisonous animals in apparent yes, surrender to the whims of the sports gods. And while it may have a proper definition, what we seek today is an explanation. Theyre probably anxious. Theyre probably concerned. And its a way of protecting themselves from the public, but its subconscious. They dont even know theyre doing it. Most of the people with their hands on their head are expressive personalities.

But ill take it because it implies im a lot more successful than i am. You are quite successful. More with you and a bigger introduction later. Were going to begin with president obama vowing to destroy isis after declaring the San Bernardino attack was an act of terrorism. The president delivered a rare primetime address from the oval office calling on congress to formally declare war on the Islamic State and tighten gun control loss. Gun control laws. The president said the shooter syed farook and his wife Tashfeen Malik, had gone down what he called the dark path of radicalization. Our coverage begins with abcs Elizabeth Hur. This was an act of terrorism designed to kill innocent people. Reporter in a rare speech from the oval office, president obama called this husband and wife team responsible for killing 14 people in San Bernardino radicals who appear to have been inspired not directed by isis. The fbi now on the trail of terror trying to determine who knew what and when. So far, the couples family telling abc news they never saw any warning signs. I feel like he had a double life. I feel like he was very good at an concealing everything from all of us. Reporter meanwhile calling the threat from terrorism real, president obama says since the paris attacks, military efforts to degrade and destroy isis are already under way overseas but as more work needs to be done here at home. To begin with, congress should act to make sure no one on a no fly list is able to guy a gun. We should put in place stronger screening for those who come to america without a visa so that we can take a hard look whether theyve traveled to war zones.

Do you think that he can expect that cooperation . Ripe reporter the short answer, not looking good. Remember, we are talking about a Republicanled Congress here but i should note of the three that you mentioned, we could see some movement in that call for stronger screening for travelers. The house is actually set to vote on a bill adding more security requirements to that visa waiver program. Again, that vote set to take place this week. Whether it passes or not, thats a whole other story, but at least its coming up for a vote. Hes got a big event at the white house with congress today. Should be interesting.

Fbi officials are searching computers and cell phones associated with the killer couple in a desperate attempt to see if they were radicalized or directed by isis or other terrorists. The female killer allegedly swore allegiance to the leader of isis on facebook on the day of the assault. The most important part of this investigation right now is, are they lone players, the two of them, or are they connected to other people . Reporter but if this couple was truly inspired by isis, it marks a dangerous evolution in the u. S. Terror threat. The fbi director has been warning for months about an unprecedented social Media Campaign by isis encouraging potentially thousands of followers in the u. S. To attack. Its as if a devil sits on ones shoulder all day long saying kill, kill, kill. Reporter the social Media Marketing polished, not just violent, appealing to the young.

Theres some very good news to report regarding former president jimmy carter. The 91yearold said yesterday he says cancer free. Carter made the surprise announcement in a Georgia Church where he teams sunday school. In august he started treatment for melanoma that spread from his liver to his brain. With us with more is abcs medical editor dan childs. Thank you so much for being here. Thank you. What do we know about president carter . Is he really in remission . This is very good news. The fact that it looks like this treatment is helping him. However, doctors wouldnt use the word remission yet. Usually someone needs to be as he says cancerfree for a very long time before doctors could conclude hey, maybe weve beaten this back. Maybe weve really eliminated cancer from his system. So theres a long ways to go before we get there. Again, this is good news. Dan, its been referred to as an experimental drug. Its been approved by the fda, for example. That is correct. In 2014, it was approved more melanoma and certain types of lung cancer. Theyre studying it for other types of cancer. Theres a possibility maybe in the future it could be used for any number of cancers. It really is an interesting addition to the arsenal that doctors have against cancer. If youre watching this and you know someone whos got a similar condition, is this a time to be excited . Should you be excited by this news, or would you caution against that . Richard, its both things. You really would take some hope in this because it shows that there is a drug here that could be better than what has been available before. But you also need to know that here we have this drug thats being used in very late stage cancer patients. Sure, it might work for one person. It may not work quite, as well for another person. Theres study that needs to happen but it is something thats hopeful. And its something that doctors are keeping their fingers crossed on. And you know, dan, the thing about president carter, he is so determined. Hes always been positive and faith is a huge part of his life. Are there any medical studies about the influence of positive attitude and faithbased approach to your diagnosis that makes a difference . Well, the studies on this are few and far between. Theyre very inconclusive. We dont know, for example, whether having strong faith or a very positive outlook affects your cancer in any sort of direct way. What we do know is that people who respond to these sorts of situations possibly tend to have better outcomes. If you have a good outlook, it may help you in other aspects of your life that also contribute to how well you fight off this cancer. So its certainly not a bad thing. He has a good outlook. Such a positive person. Hes got one of the best out of Office Careers of any president. Youre right. I think he even admitted it that he felt that his career after leaving office was probably was better than the one in the office. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Thank you very much. Abcs medical editor dan childs. Thanks for joining us this morning, dan. Thank you. Coming up in our next half hour, the brazen burglary in london. Robbers bursting into Simon Cowells home while they were sleeping. First, many christians are gearing up for a fight against what they say is a growing Political Correctness waging a war on their holiday. You are watching world news now.

Of course, the president delivered a rare primetime speech promising to step up attacks on isis while making it clear the fight is not between america and islam. Coverage begins with Abcs Jonathan Karl at the white house.
