package. absolutely correct. that is the number one goal before we start moving on to pathways to citizenship and visas and quotas and taxation. these are the things that we should be concentrating on, first and foremost. and republicans are right. christie, do you think they re right? do they have a point, when you talk about their allegation of, quote, abandoning the rule of law? that s pretty hyper bollic, isn t it, eric? no, they don t have a point here. in fact, we have addressed the sort of rule of law, and security of borders again and again. and president obama has a much better record on this than many of his predecessors. if you look at the number of deportations of people who have criminal records, it s much higher than those of his predecessors. but you know, this is all that republicans want to focus on, because they want to obscure the larger picture. and i think, you know, they re doing a pretty poor job of doing so. because people know that to the ex it te tent the
is that the president, even if he doesn t like it, may sign it and then change it unilaterally. he has done it dozens of times with obamacare. and the danger is that he s already done it with immigration, in changing the laws and telling the justice department what laws to enforce and what not. that s not what a president does. all right. once again it is what they do. they do it all the time. one thing we can t control is the clock. we re out of time, christie and brad, thank you so much. thank you. eric, it is highly misunderstood, but celiac disease affects millions of people. jennifer esposito is here to share her journey with the illness. ssion a for a final go. this is for real this time. step seven point two one two. verify and lock. command is locked. five seconds. three, two, one. standing by for capture. the most innovative software on the planet.
before him and the things he is on, things they agree with. things like the dream act that the public is behind. so, no, i don t think they have a point here. so bottom line, christie, what do you think they should do? the president or everybody? yeah. well, i mean, look, again, i sympathize with john boehner. i can that the tea party and the caucus is going to have to accept a pathway to citizenship so we have comprehensive immigration reform, not just border security, but actually offering a 13-year but some sort of a pathway to citizenship for the 11 million people in this country. and brad, your prescription? well, the republicans are right. you have to be very cautious of a president where, unfortunately, it s trust but verify and then verify again. look, we have seen it with obamacare. you here s the problem. you pass a bill, and if the president doesn t like it, he picks up his pen and his phone and he changes it unilaterally. and that s the fear that republicans
those pro russian separatists now say they will exchange these international observers for a number of separatists being held by the ukrainian government. the government is firing back saying the observers are being held as human shields inside the pro russian stronghold, besieged by ukrainian soldiers. the soldiers, though, have not moved into the town, really out of fear of the amount of civilian casualties that would have to occur if they were going to go door to door and try to root out the separatists who are extremely well-armed. the russian foreign minister for his part says he is going to do what he can in order to help free the international observers who are being held. many will tell you that the russians in this are truly the puppeteers who have said in the past they will use force to protect their own interests. this is one of the main ukrainian-russian border crossings, and since this crisis began, there has been a lot of activity on the border. the ukrainians h
republicans, and i think they understand what s happening here. dana? i m so tired of hearing the phony scandal remark from the left. i find it insulting when you consider the nsa, the irs, benghazi. if it s a phony scandal, i wish that people like christie and the president would bring him out to sean smith so she doesn t have to go on television and publicly mourn him and ask the president what happened to letter lost son. we re talking about the irs, who admitted wrongdoing, we re talking to whistle blowers within the nsa, within the cia, i m so tired of hearing this phrase. it s all deflexion, these are real scandals affecting real people and affecting the economy. let me go to the other issue that we have here. and that is it seems to me that al qaeda has america on the run right now. there are two issues that the president and vice president ran on. one was al qaeda is pretty much done, defeated.
