when the president took sarah palin out for pizza and ate with a fork and knife, his pizza, and that received a lot of commentary, in the media coverage, of that event. so he decided to take to youtube, and to twitter, to explain why he had done that. he saw that that explanation then got picked up again, and he saw that he could get on tv, using youtube and twitter, and he didn t look back from there. he was all in on social media from that moment on. and some of the other details in your piece, when you talk about how he would call at 2:00 in the morning, i have an idea and he started readily taking over twitter, as if it were his own sort of pet project. really fascinating. i do want to get to this point, which is that mcconnie is now critical of how the president uses his social media. so even if it sounds like he s got the twitter thing down, mcconnie says he needs to up his game. what does he think the president needs to do differently? he thinks that the president should pay
you can make matters much worse, especially when they turn into powerful cyclones. one of those recently blew through an area right near where two ships made those detections, those possible pings, again, possibly from the plane. joining me to talk about the path of the storm and how this might complicate the search for the missing jet is cnn s meteorologist chad myers. a lot of us had our eyes off of this area because the search was a long way away. so this hurricane cyclone really didn t matter that much at the time and now it matters a whole lot. now it matters a whole lot more. we were 1,500 miles from this cyclone. it was a category 5 hurricane. they call them cyclones because they re in different oceans. just like americans could never get the celsius thing down, we can t all agree on what it should be called. it was a 160-mile-per-hour storm, only 350 miles from the current ping location.
this thing down, let s talk about how we can make it work. and if there are problems with it let s fix it along the way. i think that s how most americans feel about this program. david, along those lines, senator, i want to throw a theory out there. if i was talking to a republican, i would say guys you keep banging, banging, banging this. you re is going to hurt yourself. move on. next. this is a tvd. we have to wait 18, 24 months to see what this thing looks like. i think there s a booby trap for republicans to continue to be the party of no to something that s officially a yes. that s how i would advise republicans. you make a good point. what the country knows is what we re against not what we re for. we ought to be voicing what we re for. but, i would just contrast, can you imagine a system where you didn t spend $700 million to set up a computer program to do this and you spent $200 and it
syria a great deal during this question and answer period. he was pressed on the matter of which countries he was able to bring over to his side on the issue of a strike against syria. he would not detail or name or list any of the countries he has been able to convince to come on board with this mission during his stay there. he also did not answer the question as to whether or not, if congress shoots the whole thing down, whether or not he would go ahead and still go forward with the strike on syria. he was asked that a number of ways and in every case declined to say so but what he did say that the united states s responsibility and the goal of this mission would be to enforce the ban on chemical weapons. and he feels that if that norm were to fall by the wayside, that it would lead to much more dangerous situations down the road. so that s where we are in terms of what the president had to say from the g20. he will head back. we re also learning that he will address the american pe
i believe this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal before this decade is out of landing a man on this moon and returning himself safely to the earth. neil: can you believe that? nearly 50 years since that day, imagine going from that to this, our second-to-last space shuttle leaving earth, and tiny nations like the isle of man taking never heard of it? if this island of 80,000 keeps up its race to space you will, just unveiling two space station, and making plans for a trip to the moon. this is the isle of man. so the last man to work on the moon and the commander of apollo 17 gene cernan joining me now, the only human being ever to sing on the surface of the moon. gene, you were a far greater hero you were a singer, i always tell you that, but you have mixed feelings today as we wind this thing down, don t you?
