major. tonight s truth follows the money and tells you just where the obama and romney campaigns believe the presidential election will be decided. in china, just as secretary of state hillary clinton arrived for a round of delegates, a chinese human rights activist left the protection of the u.s. embassy in beijing. the united states says he received assurances he would be treated humanely. later, he spoke by phone and told a very different and much darker story. he says, u.s. officials broke promises to have someone with him as he received medical treatment. translator: the embassy kept lobbying me to leave and promised to have people stay with me in the hospital. this afternoon, as soon as i checked in the hospital room, i noticed they were all gone. stan joins us live from beijing. tell us more about this phone call in which chen says he was misled, double crossed. a phone call at 3:00 a.m. beijing time, he was sitting up in his hospital room afraid for his life
years. historic drops in income and historic rise in gas prices. a president who doesn t hesitate to use all the means necessary to force through obama care, but leads from behind in the world. it s time to say these words. enough. rick santorum also spoke from gettysburg in his home state of pennsylvania. i said throughout the course of this campaign, while other issues are certainly important, economy, joblessness, national security concerns, the family, the issue of life, all of these issues are important. but the foundational issue in this race, if one that is, in fact, the cause of the other maladies that we are feeling, whether it s in the economy or whether it s in the budget crisis that we re dealing with. all boils down to one word. and that s what s at stake in this election. and it s right behind me on that banner. and that s the word freedom. rick santorum in gettysburg. let s check in with wolf and john with the latest numbers. all right, anderson. thanks
because your choice didn t win or you want to checkup the other runners up, go to suzanne malveaux s page,. and it s the big story today. today is the big day for president obama. that long awaited jobs speech on congress. it was planned for last night. you know the republicans were debating last night and had to be moved to tonight, the president s speech. here we are six hours away from the speech. he is expected to propose more investments and tax breaks that will cost $3 billion. the president may call for an infrastructure bank providing for low cost loans to get projects off the ground. he is expected to call for an extension in the payroll tax break which almost every american worker gets. and more tax breaks for those that hire veterans and the long-term unemployed. the white house says none of this ought to come as objectionable to republicans. all of these ideas are bipartisan in nature. they are the kinds of things that republicans and democrats have broadly su
businesses and large businesses will all have more customers. that means they ll be in a better position to hire. and while we re at it we need to make sure that millions of workers who are still pounding the pavement looking for jobs to sport their families are support their families are not denied needed unemployment benefits. through patent reform we can cut the red tape that stops too many inventers and entrepreneurs from quickly turning new ideas into thriving businesses which holds our whole economy back. and i want congress to pass a set of trade deals, dealings we ve already negotiated that would help displaced workers looking for new jobs and would allow our businesses to sell more products in countries in asia and south america, products that are stamped with the words made in america. we also need to give more opportunities to all those construction workers out there who lost their jobs when the housing boom went bust. we could put them to work right now by giving loans
need of rebuilding. and if we put those two things together, we can make real progress. i want to cut red tape that stops too many inventers and entrepreneurs from turning new ideas into thriving businesses. i want to, i want congress to send me a set of trade deals that would allow our businesses to sell more products in countries in asia and south america that are stamped with the words made in america. so these are some things that we could be doing right now. they re proposals in congress as we speak, and congress needs to act now. but i also believe that over the long term the strength of our economy is going to depend on how we deal with the accumulated debt and deficits that have built up over the last decade. and that s what the discussion in washington s about right now. now, i know it s hard to keep up
