trying to stay out of this debate and legislate other people work through it. karen, this is the politics of history books here. yes. and the president is making claims that the former president making claims that are very understandable and people don t give dick cheney a lot of credit. and yet david gregory, try to push back that you can t put all of syria on the past administration either. walk us through the historical politics here. i think there s a couple of things. given that dick cheney so clearly is the republican who wants to take this on and as president clinton mentioned, president bush has kind of stayed out of this. and president clinton saw some of these threats. we had a transfer of power and part of that is a transfer of conversation about where all of these threats stand. so i can see from president clinton s standpoint, a frustration that there may have been things that he may have tried to warn them about that they chose to ignore. instead, decided to go in
guest on the dr. oz show. as this hearing the federal trade commission says, look, we know that there is an endless flood, as they put it, of products that make bogus claims but they say we don t have the money or resources to go after all of them. in fact, they can only go after a small percentage. chris, kate? how about that aspect of the problem. you go and have dr. oz, i get it. why doesn t congress, point the finger, you ve got four pointing back at you. the fda does not take a look at these supplements. they say they don t have the resources. elizabeth, thank you. coming up on new day, talk about a selfie. look at this video, a woman filming herself as she s having a stroke. why it she do it and how is she able to do it and how will it help her condition. we ll tell you the answers. it may be as shocking as the video. dick cheney returns. the former vice president says
soldiers in iraq, so, i mean, i have to say over the last few days, listening to republican criticism of the president on iraq, i i don t put margaret in this category, but listening to vice president cheney, all these people who got us into this war, told us it was going to be s, we re going to be greeted with a bed of roses, it s terrible, terrible foreign policy disaster. even offering advice is really the height of chutzpah, margaret talking substance, but if you look at what people have been saying over the last several days it s really quite incredible since they were so wrong about iraq in so many ways, list ming to them talk about what we should do now is really incredible. why will they be right now when they were so wrong before? still plenty to go in that discussion. so margaret, neera, thanks for being with us. to be continued. coming up on new day, amazon getting into the smart
chris and kate. you can be sure that the white house will likely be asked and likely will be happy to respond to vice president dick cheney a little later this morning. michelle, thanks so much. dick cheney, rarely has a u.s. president been so wrong about so much at the expense of so many when talking about iraq. the administration is going to push back and say which president are you talking about? exactly right. coming up on new day, not a candidate, sounds like one and is being treated like one. hillary clinton gets a global platform to take on hard questions about benghazi, what s going to happen in 2016 and a host of other topics at a cnn town hall event. we have analysis from a couple of political experts just ahead.

expense of so many. instead he abandoned iraq and we re watching american defeat snatched from the jaws of victory. this one is a tough one when you read it because it is fair game and legitimate subject for discussion. did the president push hard enough? did he make a stand? did he fight with maliki and say we need to leave u.s. troops here in iraq but do republicans real want the bush team, the iraq team, the people, you know, no weapons of mass destruction, no iraqi oil to pay for it, no greetings for u.s. liberators, 4,500 service men and women killed in iraq. do the republicans really want the bush team out there leading the charge right now? the jaws of victory construct is open for question, and i think to your broader point, no, of course not. the party wants to look to the future. however, the cheney family wants to look to the future, too, which is the point of that op-ed. it s about helping liz cheney get more of a platform so she can start a political comeback of her own.
