i don t think they wanted to do it. i don t think they should have done it and i guarantee you, at the staff meeting tomorrow morning, somebody is going to get, you know, chewed out pretty good. it didn t matter. they could give a gettiesberg address and didn t matter. i ve been more excited about colonoscopies than his speech tonight. fun and he true and accurate, but not really a laughing matter when you talk about the issue my 23rd year here at fox. i have intrude way too many angel moms, dads, brothers and sisters over the years, people that lost children, are paying a pain that never most recover from. and this is a pain in which the president is looking to solve a problem, opening the door to the white house. urges lawmakers from both systemed of both parties to come and north, but during today s meeting, democrats again they re not interested at all. for them, politic offense trumps
They step up, they raise their hands, they take that oath, they put on the uniform and they put their lives on the line. they do this so that the rest of us might live in a country and a world that is safer, freer and more just. this is the gift they ve given us. this is the debt that we owe them. they fought on a green at lexington so we could make independent the country they imagined. they fought on the field of gettiesberg so that we could people whole a united nations torn. they fought on the beaches of europe and across pacific islands and from their ak vi sacrifice, we re the most pop prosperous nation in the world. we pay special tribute to those who served in the korean war.
we re only a day away from a crucial primary that could determine where this republican marathon is headed. fresh off a run away win in puerto rico, mitt romney is now looking to score big in illinois. rick santorum needs a strong showing as he tries to deny romney the nomination. the two rivals have long since taken off the gloves, but now they have put on some brass knuckles as well. our national correspondent jim accosta is in chicago with the very latest. the top two gop contenders are practicing their own brand of chicago style politics on this day before the illinois primary and both rick santorum and mitt romney are proving to be untouchable. reporter: the battle for the gop nomination has come to illinois and in the land of lincoln the republican party is a house divided in an uncivil war of words. i m somewhat experienced in the economy, i m not an economic light weight. president obama is. we re not going to be successful replacing an economic light weight wit
Plan to close those gaps. you also, sophia agree that this would be a good time for president obama to speak out on race again. what would you like to hear from him? what does he need to say? i chris, i think the most important thing for the president is to think back to just a year ago this time, the whole henry lewis gates flap had happened t beer sum rid as we now call it. during the 2008 primary, he had to make this speech on race because the furor had grown so wide and so out of control and i think it s there once again, which tells us something about where we still are as a nation. so i think what i would like to hear from the president is not a rah rah kind of kumbaya kind of speech but really something substantive along the lines of lincoln s gettiesberg address, no, we re not in a war, we have not seen men die on the battlefield, but it s a source that we re still struggling with
