One thing that i learned, they can win the morning but they cant win the night because there will be those of us who will stand up and not let them have the last word. This young man represents that. Thanks for watching. Hardball starts right now. The clintons go to war. Lets play hardball. A now open partisan battle between the clintons and the republicans. Clinton may have blown the starters whistle himself when he said the current attacks on hillarys health are, as he put it, just the beginning. The clintons have avoided so far by saying this is just the beginning of the attacks on the former secretary of state. Hes predicting a future of republican attacks on candidate
Hillary Clinton. He said this is just the beginning of the attacks. So is she running . If she doesnt run, what campaign attacks can he be talking about . This was supposed to start a year from now and on clintons timetable. Instead its bellowing up now on karl roves timetable. Instead of talking about the countrys future, which moub the propelling topic of any president ial campaign, its right now over whether Hillary Clintons health will keep her from getting in. Can hillary drop back to the sidelines . Can she get that year of not being a candidate she seemed all along to have wanted. Here is bill clip ton yesterday
responding on attacks of his wifes health. She works out every week. Shes strong. Shes great. She certainly seems to have more stamina than i do. Do you think its this way of inserting her age or her physical capabilities into the 2016 debate . I dont know, but if it is, you cant be too upset about it. Its just the beginning. Theyll get better and better at it. Even earlier came this statement. Its flagrant and thinly vailed. They are scared of what she has to achieve and has to offer. The Washington Post reported the clintons are entering a new phase as they prepare for a possible 2016 run. This week, Hillary Clinton and her husband have jumped into partisan combat. Clinton is move into a new phase
of preparing for a 2016 president ial campaign. Personally, i think the post reporters are being a fwit formal here. Possible campaign . Didnt bill clinton just say this is just the beginning . Joan, i do believe that in reacting with some so sif rouse rouseness, theres going to be a campaign by his wife. I heard it the same way. Tornado, y torna on the other hand, we have to let her make that announcement in her time. Im really enjoying the way she hit back, whether she runs or not and im assuming shes running, chris. I dont think it forces her hand or horses a decision on her or an announcement on her. I love seeing the entire party respond to this. 23r jay carney to nancy pi loescy. She is a standard bearer for
this party whatever she does. I love seeing people out there defending her and saying were not going to take this, karl rove. Her first spokesperson called her a liar. Let me try this out. Next step, somebody will come into the roll of pretending to be a moderator, pretending to be an umpire saying well, they should release their medical records. And once that starts blood clot, once you get concussion, then it just keeps rolling along and rolling along. Doesnt this escalate and advance the campaign well ahead of schedule . I really dont think so. Sfwl theres a lot to be said for getting it out of the way now. You know somebody out there, its going to be a beltway pundit. Somebody is going to say hey, karl rove is right. But shes going to have to answer these questions. Theres an answer for these questions. Shes been out and making speeches and she looks great. These questions, the way they raised them its dirty. Are they relevant questions . They actually are. And shes got an answer, i believe. Does this escalate the campaign that they go after republicans . Ive never been a fan of the way john kerry handled the swift boefting or the way Michael Dukakis handled everything. Youve got to fight. But they are fighting. Do you think the clintons are happy theyre involved in this mud fight at this point . No, i dont think so. Let me tell you, chris, i think theres a separate Campaign Going on. Karl rove was either demented because thaz that was as gross
and lethal an attack. Hes demented or a smart guy. He knows you dont shoot 2 1 2 years before the election. That issue, Hillary Clintons age and health is a September Issue when voters are paying attention. What are they campaigning for now . Theyre campaigning to try to convince hillary not to run. That its going to be so slimily and so dirty and so offensive that she doesnt want to live two years of her life like that. Thats what the campaign is. Its geared to persuade her not to run. They know they cant beat her. They want to run against alesser democrat who they have a chance to beat. Can you imagine their reaction that its going to get this much in the gutter, this past, this personal . In the one sense, hillary has to say good god, whats happened to this business. But in another sense, i know hillary is combative enough and
competitive enough that shes going to want to push back. And believe me, the president and the spokespeople didnt push back as hard as they did without hillarys okay. She will not be a pushover. You saw her when she testified. Shes going to give as good as she gets. But the question is, does she want do live twoer yoos of her life going through this slime . Politics has become a horrible, horrible, slimy, disgusting business. Theyre trying to make that point to hillary to keep her out. I dont think its going to work but thats the campaign under way right now. I agree with you. But its ten years of her life if shes elected so two terms. She knows that already. I find it hard to believe that
theres anything they can throw out that she says oh, my god, theyre going to bring up x . She knows what shes getting into. Shes got a bright new shiny car. She has a bently in terms of reputation. Shes against a guy who has a junker, a jalopy. A new poll shows why republicans are nervous about mrs. Clinton, former secretary. It Shows Hillary with a huge lead over every contendner the decisive state of ohio, which probably will decide this thing. States like ohio. Up by seven point against marco rubio and paul ryan. Leads by eight point against rand paul, Chris Christie and mike huckabee. Shes up nine point against jeb bush and ted cruz, 19 points, no surprise there. Ill call this preventive war. One of its goals is perhaps to scare her off from entering the race in the first place a the governor said. Or muddy her up before the run. Lets watch some of the attacks in action. What grade do you give her as secretary of state . I dont think she has a passing grade. Shes an f . If you look at the diplomacy in her time, its failed everywhere in the world. Should we as a country have a commanderinchief who didnt provide Adequate Security in libya, didnt send reinfor reenforcements and gave us nothing but spin in Hillary Clinton has precluded herself from ever being considered for that position. Lets have a debate on secretary of state of the United StatesHillary Clinton. The boko haram leader, or whoever boko haram had perform on the video is a good looking
guy. This is why mrs. Clinton wouldnt call this group a terror group. Because theyre black. We cant call them terrorists because they look like africanamericans and we just cant go there. What do you make of that, joan . Theyll throw anything. Its not any recognizable material. No, its not. Thats a good point. Hes good looking. Hes africanamerican. What is he saying . Whatever, i neemt even going to finish his thinking. To sit there on judgment of Foreign Policy issueser its going to be a Wonderful Campaign if either of them is debating Hillary Clinton on Foreign Policy. But this is where theyre going to go and we know this. Its all fine. Shes going to be criticized for these things and shes going to have an answer or not. I think shell have an answer. She goes well against huckabee and bush than the young guys nobody knows about. What do you think is going on with the voters . I think ted cruz has negatives. Poor jeb bush is saddled with the name bush. Mike huckabee, people know. I think rubio and ryan are a softer version until you peel back the i dont know i dont know onion. The four clips you played theyre part of the concentrated campaign. Shes going to decide whats best for her and the country, but shes not going to be scared off. The last guy, that rush guy, he is demented. Theres no question. With karl rove, theres a little bit of a question. But with rush, there is no question. They used to hide heez people
in the east wing of the old house. Now theyre running around. Thank you. Coming up, yes, he wants to make hillarys health initiative, but he wants something more, he wants to when back the white house by convincing jeb bush the offshore batteries knew are severely badging pillory clinton so he can get in the fight. Well see if thats true. Also, the secretary of Veterans AffairEric Shinseki says hes mad as hell for the long waits to see a dock fotor. And the efforts to cover it up. Plus, which state has the least trusted State Government in the country . Heres a hint, by the way. Four of the states last seven governors have ended up in federal prison. Come on, you can guess this one. Finally, it was hard to be moved by the dedication of the 9 11 museum. They didnt know his name. They didnt know where he came from. But they knew their lives had been saved by the man in the red bandanna. [ girl ] my mom, she makes underwater fans that are powered by the moon. She can print amazing things, right from her computer. [ whirring ]
[ train whistle blows ] she makes trains that are friends with trees. My mom works at ge. Take a look at this ad. If you send her to congress she eel make you proud she eel vote right. Im not coming here saying vote for her because 20 years ago she saved the economy. Shell take initiative, shell do things that stand up when she needs to stand up and that cooperate when we need cooperation. I think america will be a better place and its district will be well served if you elect her. . Bill clinton is the star of that ad and for good reason. Margoli was the deciding vote in the house of representatives for
clintons 1993 budget. Republicans cheered her as she cast that vote and she lost her seat after just one term. Plus, shes Chelsea Clintons motherinlaw. But the energy bp produces up here creates Something Else as well jobs all over america. Engineering and innovation jobs. Advanced Safety Systems technology. Shipping and manufacturing. Across the United States, bp supports more than a quarter million jobs. When we set up operation in one part of the country, people in other parts go to work. Thats not a coincidence. Its one more part of our commitment to america. That corporate trial by fire when every slacker gets his due. And yet, theres someone around the office who hasnt had a Performance Review in a while. Someone whose poor performance is slowing down the entire organization. Im looking at you phone company dsl. Check your speed. See how fast your internet can be. Switch now and add voice and tv for 34. 90. Comcast business built for business. Karl rove doesnt act without a motive. He wants a recognized role in politics. Number two, he obviously wants the republicans to win. Number three, he therefore wants a rinable republican to run, and number four, that seems to be a member of the bush family, this time jeb. So is the attack on hillary sending a message to jeb bush . Were going to do some dirty work on hillary before you even get in it . Rove is acting to shape the field. Clarence page is a columnist with the chicago tribune. I look at it all and i try to figure out, theres a lot of two birds with one stuff going on here. I know karl rove doesnt want some whack co bird to run. He wants to get a centrist republican like a bush to run. In fact, a bush. Number two, h ehas to do some convincing and he has to convince jeb bush its not going to be all about you. Its gong to be us on the right and center right, attacking like hell, Hillary Clinton. Thats right. A lot of people are watching now and saying oh, no, not jeb bush. I dont believe believe bush fatigue for a minute any more than hillary fatigue. It makes a lot more sense that karl rove would be trying to lure jeb bush into the race than trying to frighten off Hillary Clinton. Shes not easily frightened. But getting jeb bush into the race is something karl rove has want to do. He made no secret of it. He thinks this is the kind of candidate republicans need to win. The hold line was if you have a dog, you dont have to bark. I think i see a guy auditioning for dog here. Thats karl rove. I think thats right, although i would disagree with clarence a little bit. I think this was a shot across the bow of Hillary Clinton. It would be both. Well, it can be both and it probably is both. But weve been reading about how the one real reluctance clinton might have to get into the race is she doesnt want to deal with the personal attacks and the scrutiny. And so i think rove by going out and kind of launching off a volley of these attacks and making clear just how personal and kind of weird asomugha of these attacks are going to be is planning a doubt in her mind whether this is really something she wants to go through. Rove, as smart as he is, i think the other something he would love to see if for democrats not to run Hillary Clinton and have to go with a weaker,lesser known candidate instead. When i watch Rush Limbaugh talk about how somebody had a romance going on with the spokesman for the terrorists there with the nigeria as a sort of motive saying these guys look like africanamericans, clarence, you jump in here. I think anything is sayable on the right, anything that will stir up the far right, put mud on the side of the faces of the democrats is out there being done. Bo back to the 90s when the clintons were accused of drug smuggling, murder, you name it. And bill clinton, he was telling the truth when he said well, you know, its only just beginning. They know its great beginning. Theyre not going to let themselves be dukakisized or mcgovernized. Josh, do you think theres a possibility that this 2016
campaign, which will probably begin at full speed in several months if not by next year, that they could run it on a high level of policy and not personal construction . Im impressed with what shes been able to do. The guts to run for senator of nok on her own. Thats an enormous gutsy move to make. Why would she think theres going to be a high Road Campaign in 2016. Its going to be down in the gutter. Theyre going to go after her health, bill clin top. This stuff isnt going to get any better. I dont think you can escape the dirt and the slime. But i do think theres a chance, both nominees are going to need to address policy. Part of the argument for
electing a president is we have a different set of solutions to get the economy going. For clinton, if you look at why people would hesitate to elect another democratic president , the poll says people want a break from obamas policies. Clinton is going to have to come up with something that differentiates her with barack obama and convince voters shes got something to enliven the economy, juice it up, get jobs going it. Cant all be attacks on what a weirdo karl rove is. I agree Hillary Clinton, its got to be about the future, a new brand for the democrats in the way george senior ran kinder, gentler than ronald reagan. A notch or two to the right on Foreign Policy. I dont like it, but i think thats where the country is. And perhaps a notch closer to the constituencies out there in the middle that hillary needs to reach at home. In iway, good thinking. Up next, you dont want to miss
this match. Watch what happens now when you have an open door policy for a Gubernatorial Debate and the fringies walk through the door. I have low testosterone. There, i said it. How did i know .

Jay carney today said the president is mad as hell and heres why. Several whistleblowers from va hospitals from around the country have come forward with disturbing accounts of to tentially criminal activity involving hospital procedures to see sick patients. They have alleged these facilitate i it is were purposefully cooking the books
to improve their ratings by making it appear as if they were seeing patients promptly, often within two weeks when in reality veterans were waiting months to see the doctor. One whistleblower said 40 veterans at his hospital alone died in that secret backlog. Then administrators shredded their evidence to cover their tracks. Five administrators have been placed on leave and president obama has just directed his deputy chief of staff to review the veterans department. The retired fourstar general testified in front of congress, making it clear he was personally outraged at what hes heard. Any allegation, any adverse incident like this makes me mad as hell. I could use stronger language here, but in deference to the committee i wont. Any allegations if theyre true are completely unacceptable. If any are substantiated by the
inspector general, we will act. Shinseki is facing growsing demands to resign. In todays hear, republican dean howard cut right to it. Do you believe that youre ultimately responsible for all of this . I am. Would you explain to me after knowing all this information why you should not resign . Well, i tell you, senator, i came here to make things better for veterans. I will continue this mission until i am satisfied. Either that goal or, im told by the commanderinchief that my time has been served. Our next guest is the host of
taking the hill on msnbc. And Goldie Taylor is an msnbc contributor and former u. S. Mari marine. Goldie, if you can start this in a nutshell, what is this travesty where you hear that people who are sick, need medical help, primary care, are waiting months and months and months, but somewhere in some book somewhere, some doctor is checking off i saw this fellow or two weeks. This strav city is unfortunately not new. Veterans have been waiting for is care for months on end for decades on end. And so that part of it isnt new. The very notion, however, that you have somebody cooking the books saying they have seen a veteran within two weeks when they havent seen them, thats a deadly circumstance in some situations. So the very notion that is happening, if this secretary knew or should have known this kind of thing is happening, its our mission to take his job. Is it hard to find doctors to serve at the pay grade they are offered at the va . Why is it so hard to match the resources that veterans deserve with what theyre getting . When youre a public servant, youre not getting as much none salary as you are in the private sector. We need people to answer the call to support these veterans. The heroes who have given so much to our country. But that does not eck accuse the fact of whats happened. What happened is criminal negligence. Im thrilled that president obama who has invested so much money and effort in the veterans, i mean, taking a budget in the va from 90 billion to 155 billion is a major increase. Because of that, an army brat who has served his country, one of the top guys to oversee and make sure the systemic issues are addressed now. I dont understand why this hasnt steeped up. Why hasnt this seemed up to the white house . Everybody knows michelle obama, the first lady has been very active along with joe biden in working with families who have come back from war. Isnt there any scuttlebutt from the military where people talk . Why doesnt anybody talk to the people running our country . . This environment that this president and first lady have created, wrapping the arms around veterans for the first time in many years, maybe created an environment where this did bubble up this time. The fact is this has been going on for a very long time. Its the facilities, the environment, the tools with which they have to work. This means we need a wholesale, nonyumtal sea change in the way we treat our veterans. It seems to me we need a brandnew cabinet secretary thats going to stand just as strongly on that. The puck really has to stop there. I wonder what this is going to do to recruitment. If you want to put a damper on recruitment. Get the word out if you get shot over there and lose a limb and you need help youre going to wait in line for months. I dont think it will. For two reasons. One, young 18, 19yearolds wont see the big picture. Theyre not joining the military to make a lot of money. Im talking about being care of if you get shot. The broader picture, chris, is that there are hundreds of thousands of veterans that have been served. Theres one million veterans that have gone to the gi bill. The increase in veterans using the va has gone up tremendously. Which is a positive thing. We need to make sure we get on top of it as a country and hold those people response nl that justice is served. There sure as hell better be more people being fired. Some of them who lied and are responsible for those deaths need to go to jail. The outrage on this issue has crossed party lines. Take a listen. If these allegations are true, theyre a violation of law. And its not a matter of r resignati resignations, its a matter of whether somebody goes to jail or not. We have more than allegations at this point. We have evidence. Cooking the books, creating false records, which is not just an impropriety or misconduct, its a criminal act. General shinsekis time as secretary of veteran affairs has come to and. I would not be afraid to call for his allegations as soon as we get to the bottom of the allegations that have been made. Thank you, pat. Hope we get to the bottom of this. Thank you. Todays emotional ceremony marking the opening of the september 1 1 museum in new yorks ground zero. Rudy giuliani joins us next.

Number five, nebraska. Number four, south dakota. Utah comes in at number three. Wyoming is the second most trusted State Government. And number one, the most trusted State Government in the country,
north dakota. Now to the at least. Number five, louisiana, which has a long history of corruption. Number four, my home state of pennsylvania. Rhode island is number three. Maine is number two and the least trusted State Government in the country, illinois where four of the last seven governors have gone to prison.

Its been more than 12 1 2 years since that terrible day on
september 11 well never forget. The Memorial Museum was dedicated at the old World Trade Center site in new york city. The museum is devoted to telling the personal stories of those we lost, those who survived, and the heroism we saw that day in our fellow americans. Todays dedication ceremony was both solemn and moving. Pitch perfect, many said. A perfect tribute to the true spirit of 9 11. The courage, the honor, of course, the sacrifice that brought us all together. Joining us right now, we couldnt have a better guest, Rudy Giuliani who was mayor of new york at the time of the september 11 attacks. Mr. Mayor, you had many hours im told in that museum. What did it feel like . Well, i was there a good deal yesterday. Two hours y yesterday. Ive been in and out of it for some time because im a member of the board. It was extremely emotional. In some ways its harder now than it was then. Maybe because you dont think about it as much. So now when you come back to it, all these memories come back. Particularly difficult for me was to see all of the articles that were left behind by people. I could recognize some of the articles and associate it with some of the people, some of them who i had to identify their bodies. And it brought back a flood of really, really difficult memorie memories. On the other hand, you know, its almost exactly like september 11 was. September 11 was the worst day and the best day. It also documents the tremendous heroism, the unbelievable outpouring of love and affection, the bipartisan nature of the american response. I dont even remember america, maybe i wasnt alive in the beginning of the second world war, but i never remember america as united as it was in
the weeks and months right after september 11. And the museum picks all of that up, too. It gives you the best of september 11 and the worst of september 11. I think people are going to find it a truly magnificent museum. The magic, the knefeeling pee had for those firefighter, the hundreds of guys who really did go to the sounds of the guns, if you will. Running up those stairs. I sate at the time, i thought new york proved we could take it. You guys did it. I thought september 11 proved the question that as to whether or not this generation was ready to take on some kind of a massive con flingt like our fathers and our grandfathers. Tom brokaw asked that in his book, maybe written a year or two years before. I just read the book. When i watched the reaction that day i realized these are their sons and daughters, they can do the same thing. And one of the participants today talked about how the firefighters made it possible to have an orderly exit because they stood their ground, they didnt run out or run away. Even when they were told to evacuate they remained behind until the civilians left. The group of firefighters that i introduced today were miraculously saved. They fell a number of stories and they were crushed theoretically by the building, but just for some reason, a stroke of luck or i believe the will of god, there was kind of an ail cove created so they were protected. Six or seven hours later they were recovered and i got to meet them for the first time at the hospital, at bellevue, and now i got to introduce them today. Theyre doing great. I remember all about this you were there and i remember great
scenes, vin yets of firefighters driving by in their trucks and people standing up and saluting them and that wonderful silence with a saks player going that wonderful togetherness, i wish we could get it back. I wish we could, too. I drove up west street with president bush after he appeared at ground zero on september 14th and everybody was applauding for him. They were blowing him kisses. He deserved it. You know what i said to him. They all love you now but no one voted for you. Im not going to knock him but the way he performed an the 14th with that firefighter was magnificent. The same was true when president obama came a couple days after he captured osama bin
laden. Whether you were a republican or democrat, everybody loved him. When things that happen that are much bigger than us, we forget our petty differences. September 11 was much bigger than any of us, and i think we forgot, being republican, democrat, fighting over taxes and abortion and School Prayer and who knows what else. You have to remind us, dont you. We forgot it. You know what its like . All the petty Little Things going on in your life and then you get a call and you find out that one of your parents died or god forbid your child. All those things become totally important and the only important thing is dealing with this terrible thing that happened. I think thats what happened on september 11. I think this country still happens. If we were under that kind of attack it would all go away and we would all be together again. Then when its over we go back to these differences that we honestly have. Im not one of these people that
think the politicians create the differences. I think the politicians reflect the difference that the American People have and thats a healthy thing.

trade center sight. We leave you with those images and stories from the dedication of the 9 11 Memorial Museum, a day nearly 13 years in the making. Its all to the sound of the music played to close the ceremony today, aaron copelands fan fair for the common man. In the years to come, the 9 11 Memorial Museum will take its place alongside the fields of gettysburg, the waters of pearl harbor and the Vietnam Veterans memorial as a sacred marker of our past and a solemn gathering place. This museum built on the site of rubble and ruins is now filled with the faces, the stories, and the memories of our common grief and hope. On that september morning, Allison Prather lost her son wells. Months later she was reading the
newspaper, an article about those final minutes in the towers. Survivors recounted how a young man wearing a red hander chif led them to safety. In that moment, allison knew. Ever since he was a boy, her son had always carried a red hanker chif. Her son wells was the man in the red ban dana. Mark, this is your mom. Apparently there are terrorists and theyre crashing the aircraft. Theres one flight that they say is headed towards san francisco. It might be yours. If you can, group some people and perhaps do everything you can to overpower them. I love you, sweetie. Good luck, byebye. When i heard that the museum was looking for artifacts, i thought about my shoes. I had put them in a plastic container and when i took them
out, they still had the smell on them from that awful day, and i knew i would never wear them again. So i decided to donate them here. I wanted my nieces and my nephew and every person that asked what happened to see them and maybe understand a little bit better what it felt like to be us on that day. Ordinary, every day objects that we find here in the museum, a wallet, a ring, an i. D. Card, a telephone, are unlikely but powerful keep sakes which help us understand the events of that day in human terms. What this museum does is allow us to see that we absolutely can affect each others lives by what we do at a time of crises. How we are strengthened by what
