the irs, neighbors say stack set his house on fire. witnesses sprung into action and pulled what s believed to be stack s wife and daughter from the burning home. authorities here in austin are stressing that stack s alleged actions are isolated. the white house is reporting this does not rise to the level of al qaeda-like terrorism but, bret, they don t want to get ahead of the investigation when it comes to describing exactly what did happen here in austin today. bret: kris gutierrez live in austin, texas. thank you. criminals have reportedly built a secret underground hacking network available to rent for gangs, cyber crooks, and even governments. the wall street journal writes that hackers have broken into computers at nearly 2500 companies and government agencies over the last year and a half. meanwhile a nonprofit research group that staged a cyber attack war game has concluded the u.s. government is not ready for an actual large scale cyber attack. the mayor of las vegas isn
that secretary clinton said that i think are disappointing. and those words were world community. that the world community is going to come together and do something here. there is no world community and if there were, it s not going to come together. what i m afraid is they will talk about sanctions, they will argue about them, and maybe they will pass some new sanctions and the iranians will be totally unimpeded. unimpeded. bret: does this change the timetable at all, charles, quickly, for somebody like israel? obviously they had their own intelligence. they have been speaking out about this for a long time. but now that the iaea is saying what they are saying, does it change the dynamic? i m not sure it will change israel s dynamic because it has its own information independent of the iaea. it always knew under the previous leadership iaea was protecting iran. it could help change our timetable which remarkable is the reluctance of this administration to say anything strong. i
regime doesn t care about accommodation with the west and proves itself quite able to deal with sanctions in the past. and, you know, an attack by israel. is there a way to feed a feed the citizens that we see in the streets, the revolutionary the citizens who are fighting this regime, very courageously. and senator cornyn and senator brown back have introduced legislation to directly feed that movement. i think you are going to see more thinking along those lines, certainly out of capitol hill and from a lot of republicans. bret: fred, even today the state department saying that they don t know why iran is not back at the table. yet, secretary clinton saying we don t want to be engaging while they are building their bombs, referring to iran s nuclear weapons military program. it seems like she is out front in this administration. iran wants to be a nuclear power and she seems to be the only one that s saying that close to frankly. i mean, this notion that somehow remember th
bret: busy day over there, karl. thanks. what some are calling save the senate campaign kicked off today in colorado. white house correspondent wendell goler is travelling with the president who is trying to help its party keep senate majority after this fall s midterm elections. president obama returned to a different colorado than the one that hosted his political convention in 10 other visits. two since an election in which he carried this previously red state by an improbable nine points. now with his public approval rating here, lower than the national average, mr. obama is trying to help incumbent democratic senator michael bennett who trail as slate of republican challengers by 4 to 14 points. go on to help majority leader harry reid in colorado. his challenger is up 8 points. doug schoen doesn t see much point. my best guess will not help it will only tie two increasingly weak incumbents to an unpopular administration. also unpopular is the
