single nation, act against the nation s interest and that is what i have a lot with the united nations and a lot of their human rights commission and things are all sort of stacked against the u.s., and are anti-american and this, i think is a different case, but, the president and treasury secretary believe that bailing out greece would help america because would it keep america from sinking back into a double-dip recession and they are probably right about that, but i think there is a cautionary lesson, in these international organizations that don t respect sovereignty. juliet: thank you for the commentary, michael goodwin, always good to see you. my pleasure ago you think seeing baseball fans getting tasered for running on this field you think people would think twice about the stunt. lo and behold, it happened again. look at this. top of the 9th, tampa bay rays, tropicana field. a lovely look for that guy and the fan jumps the stands and tries to out run them and never works
the three cases first were the christmas day bombing attempt over detroit, the fort hood shooting and the times square bomb attempt and these are the three cases that were part of question do you think radical islam was one of the reasons that was motivating these three terror bombsers and the bombers and the one shooter and he could not give a straight answer. and, it is very much a piece with the obama administration s idea of eliminating any reference to islam, when it comes to terrorism. and when it comes to any kind of extremist attack. it is just always kind of a nondenominational extremist, and it could be a catholic, a jew, a protestant, a hindu, but as we know it s not. it is very much related to islamic fundamentalism, and it is very much the motivation, i mean, muslim leaders, here in the u.s., would tell you this, muslim leaders around the world know it is islamic radicals who are doing these terror attacks around the world, and so for holder not to be able to say
and he wouldn t show up this weekend. he wouldn t come and campaign for him. he wasn t going to do another martha coakley in massachusetts or a jon corzine in new jersey. but. gregg: if i m arlen specter i m not sure i want the president to show up. i realize it is a democratic primary, but. you know where you want him? you want the president in philadelphia. the president is very popular in philadelphia. 38% of the democratic vote comes out of the philadelphia suburbs. you want the president of the united states in a city where he s popular, remember, among democrats, the president still has a job performance rating, now, you don t want to take the president to western pennsylvania, where there is another hot hot special election going on. where his approval rating is very low. gregg: you put him in philly, everyone will be watching it s on the television and the internet and it is the
so i think that is what he is doing and is basically telling people in the field, don t think along that line. but that is crazy. juliet: you would be hard pressed to find anybody out there who wouldn t be able to answer. give a yes to that question. it is. i want to ask you, quickly, you are a new york guy and write about a lot of things happening in new york. and, the defense budget is cut, the new york terror budget is cut. yet we re giving money to bail out greece. what is going on there? well, look the money that we have contributed to the bailout of greece comes through the imf of which we are probably the largest contributor. something like 15 to 17% of the bailout funds targeted for greece are basically american funds and in theory, i don t have a real problem with the specific case, because, obama wanted the imf to do it and wanted the eurozone to bail out greece and the problem is when these international organizations that don t really respect the sovereignty of any
work, but candidate obama, promised change. he was going to reach out, and engage iran in good faith. do you think in retrospect that appears to be naive. it was naive and ignored the fact that the bush administration for the preceding six years, had been relying on the europeans to reach out and try and negotiate with iran. so, both the bush policy and the promised obama policy were based on a misconception that iran was ever going to be talked out of its nuclear weapons program that failed before and failed now, and will fail into the future and that is why we re in the unhappy position of being close to iran, getting nuclear weapons. gregg: ambassador john bolton, thank you so much for being with us. thank you. juliet: the troops, many people say it, how many take a step towards doing it, a woman dedicating her life to the men and women of our military,
