candidate who had covered a lot of evidence on behalf of iran, he s extremely unsympathetic to israel, now that it s under new leadership, we are getting frank reports, unapologetic reports, clear reports, including this evidence that you cited, in which the evidence it s impossible to determine what s been discovered by any other explanation other than iran is bent on developing a nuclear weapon and all of this is related. so it s unmistakable. it s unlike cia evidence in the case of iraq in which you could say it was tainted. this is iaea ieae, not a pro-israel organization. it s unmistakable what iran is doing. everybody understands that and there s no way of denying it. bret: the greek vote is continuing, 102 yes, 96 no. again, the prime minister there, papandreou, needs 151 to retain his government, to pass this
choice between traditional medicare and other private healthcare plans that provide at least the same level of benefits. bret: that has some sound like paul ryan s plan. steve? this is one of those things that unfolds in the daily sort of rata tat tat of regular politics, but i think it s a significant moment. here you have mitt romney, who s famous for his risk aversion, in effect embracing major parts, or at least the principles put forward in the house republican budget. he s embraced premium support in terms of medicare reform. he s embraced raising retirement age in terms of social security. this is mitt romney, i think, going a little bit out on a limb. he didn t provide as many details as i would like, but this is a very, very good start. bret: i want to interrupt here, go to greece. right now the prime minister papandreou has just received the votes needed. his government is intact. he now has 153 yes votes. you need 151. so the greek parliament has
issued its confidence vote in this government. that is the prime minister right now taking a big sigh of relief. and perhaps european leaders and u.s. leaders with the same sigh. charles, how significant is this? because as we know all of this is interconnected with the economy. this is hugely important. the fact that we had a huge rally in the markets last week when we thought there was an agreement between eu and greece, and then there was a collapse on monday and tuesday when the prime minister had said there would be a referendum, which would undermine it. he then pulled back on the referendum, but if the prime minister had not succeeded in this vote that would mean the government would have collapsed, you would have had a large period, a huge period of uncertainty. who would be in charge, with anybody in charge actually implement the eu deal, the markets would have been extremely unsteady. i think there would have been a plunge. this is a life raft roig
