i don t understand why they re bringing it in, frankly. i don t want to defend it, but it makes no sense. keep to what tear doing. the attorney general has withheld information. this has been a long dance between both of them. they probably could have come to an agreement, but both sides tried to win the argument in the press and look good to their own folks. at the end of the day, just to go back to the question, i can t understand why bringing in firearms. here s the deal. the whole gun running, which started the investigation during the bush administration in 05-06 but men are buying guns legally and running them through smugglers. whether they end up in mexico or in our streets in crime, all of a sudden the nra is going, oh, dear. if they start chasing down the strawmen sellers that could justify more regulations. that s twhar arguing about, but the whole point was, in fact,
see some republican elected officials actually say that the big grand conspiracy here is it s about gun control in america, which i find interesting. susan, democratic strategy republican strategist with us and also democratic strategist keith boykin and author and attorney karen cryer. i want to talk about this gun control issue first. the reason this is happening is because president obama wants to take away your firearms in america. the grand conspirasee. this is a tough case to make to the american public, frankly, and there s reasons the republicans should pursue it. bringing in firearms is a big mistake. they re already kind of muddying the waters. i don t understand why they re bringing it in, frankly. i don t want to defend it, but it makes no sense. keep to what tear doing. the attorney general has withheld information.

any hope? reporter: well, fredricka, when you look at that video, we see the black cloud of oil coming out of that massive pipe, as well as a spray of gas coming out. it s sort of a lighter color. that gas was actually forming crystals inside that larger dome they tried last week and clogged it up. that s why they had to set that aside. so now what tear doing, they have the smaller dome calling the top hat. and they re thinking that the smaller dome, the way it s kruted, alkrut constructed, they will be able to pro-pre vebt tevent the crys lower it over the top of the pipe. when they do the plan is to siphon the oil up on a containment ship on surface and prevent this oil slick from getting any bigger than it already is. now, at the same time, they re working on another solution that they decide not to go with the top hat and that s to insert another pipe that they developed inside the leaking pipe. so they ve got two possible solutions in play right now.
