These are folks i have enjoyed being with and love watching their work. They are two great pros and two great people. Let me do a nutshell of where i am and then i want to get neil and stan and talk about what they are seeing out there. If you go back to the early part of last year, there were two competing scenarios two theories of what the 2014 Midterm Elections could be about. One theory was some of the challenges facing the Republican Party in 2012 would flow into 2014 will stop the other was it would be a classic Midterm Election referendum on the incumbent president and all that entails. Two competing directions and it could have gone either way. In terms of challenges facing the Republican Party, some of them were with key voting groups and some of it was their own, some of the things they were doing. The challenge of min
Owe ozanian and bruce. What do you think, the cost of closing more than the cost of keeping it open . David, you never close a pow camp until you win the war. We know from past experience when you release these people many of them do go back to trying to fight against us in this war on terror. So this is blood on the ground, innocent lives are being put in jeopardy and in terms of that swap that was disproportionate.

Complicated history between the middle east the west and none of us i think should be immune from criticism in terms of specific policies, but the notion that the west is at war with islam is an ugly lie. And all of us regardless of our faith, have a responsibility to reject it. But it is not a lie, but rather an absolute truth that we are at war with radical islamists who grow in strength and power in the middle east, and the president and his administration instead are rejecting that truth at least publicly. Where did mr. Obama ever get the idea becoming an empathizer in chief rather than a victorious commander in chief .
