views were radically altered by what happened in the last decade, after the invasion of iraq. i don t think the world view was changed. i think they sense an opportunity within the republican party, the argument in the republican party over foreign policy. whenever they see an opportunity to connect their agenda to opposition to obama, that gives them opportunity to clear out clear out rand paul and ted cruz. that s who they have the problem with. rand paul said snowden was a hero. instead of attacking obama, they should go after rand paul. john kerry is never going to be secretary of state under rand paul. they re never going to nominate rand paul. you re too rational. watch the end of the show. i will. thank you. steve kornacki and john. we re about to have a fight on this issue. he may be right. i don t think so. up next, just when you think it couldn t happen, anthony weiner hits another new low. this is hardball, the place for politics. .so you say men are su
i m up all night to get some i m up all night to get lucky security. security. anyway, up next, hillary, hillary, hillary. president obama s praising her, and the republicans are terrified of her. they should be. you re watching hardball, the place for politics. this day calls you. to fight chronic osteoarthritis pain. to fight chronic low back pain. to take action. to take the next step. today, you will know you did something for your pain. cymbalta can help. cymbalta is a pain reliever fda-approved to manage chronic musculoskeletal pain.
with iran. name an issue. he s got snowden with a visa. of course we re a little ticked at him. what s new? we should be ticked with him. to go ahead with this summit after the snowden episode, they would have just bickered with each other, nothing would have been accomplished, and the united states had to indicate to him that we re mad at him. we re mad at him, not just because he rides around without his shirt on on a horse. we re mad at him john, you re being kind. remember the last time they met. the president tried to do ice breaking. loosen him up, he made fun of the president for trying to get along with him. yeah, and he s a bad guy in a lot of ways. that doesn t mean we don t want to have relations with him. what bothers me about the republicans, you know, piling on obama on this issue is they re suggesting that the last five years of u.s.-russian relations have been a failure when the only reason the sanctions against iran are in place in the
