with j.d. you ll see that exacerbated. yeah. and listen, the president stopped mid speech, not once, but twice for a very critical moment. thousand jobs thank you. they don t have water? that s okay. japanese manufacturers, toyota and mazda announced that they will be opening a new so i was listening at the gym and i thought my headphones cut out. what just happened? i ran over to the screens and i saw it. i mean, look, we all keep water. we keep it at the desk. we need that. listen, the president, he campaigned on america first. he made fun of marco rubio s mid speech water sip. he stopped to sip fiji water which is bottled and shipped in an island nation. being a little nitpicky here.
he made fun of mark row rubio. he stopped to sip fiji water which is bottled and shipped in an island nation. being a little nitpicky here. but karma, karma, karma, april. it does come back and bite. you know, this president delivered 24 minutes of a speech and he needed water. he didn t finesse it well at all. twice he didn t finesse it well, but he calls himself newly presidential. other presidents would be very i guess polished in their attempt at drinking water while they are looking at the teleprompter and addressing america. he actually stopped mid sentence, as you said, at very important parts of the speech. and i mean, it was so abrupt that he brought tangs to himself. yeah. i just have to say, look, when you re giving a major speech like that there s not an artful way to take a sip of water.

justice department officials, and the fbi should also take full responsibility for the illegal actions taken against fox news and james rosen. harris? harris: of course, our job is to hold the government accountable. i m going to be a little nitpicky here. you are talking about guidelines. you are not necessarily talking about a media shield law for reerts. that s correct. attorney general holder says he supports a shield law. the president has voiced his support for it. though mr. obama also notes that congress has been reluctant to pass it some experts think it s possible to provide reporters more protection without going through congress. it s possible to treat reporters like they are special, each without a shield law. if you take the view that there are particularly sensitive first amendment issues that come into play whenever you start to look at reporters in a manner that s different from ordinary members of the public. professor vladeck believes the administration shoul
