giles, assistant to george w bush. the president s speech today was incredibly polarizing. what is your reaction to what you heard? i think of the many things that we remember about his presidency, this is will be one of them. the question is which kind of future will we read it from? just relationship the newspaper what is happening in the arctic? this is a terrifying situation for the world, climate change. and if we are able to solve what will be one of the greatest struggles of our time, it will not be because of the united states, it will be despite the president of the united states. it is going to be tragedyic and sad. hear here is what the president said about climate change in the past and we will talk about it. i m not a believer in gloibl warming. i m not a believer in man made global warming. i think the sign tigss are having a lot of fun. it s a money making industry,
we re giving up our best tragedyic thing. forget strategic think. forget. there s a middle road. middle road. the middle road is maintaining a tough sanctions regime tough sanctions policy on a regime that has not changed its fundamental tune but has put on a charm offensive. i would argue we have been seduced by charm offensive and negotiate away most of our advantages. we ll know soon enough. nice to see you again. as negotiators try to hammer out a deal that they think would be a good deal, unless they don t get one and say they ll walk away, an american journalis locked up in iran is back in court. he works for the washington post newspaper. last july iranian investigators arrested jason and his wife on charges spying.
do you think we ll get a deal? might be a flawed deal or a deal that is neville chamberlain-light so hear his pit cricks but the wind at the president s back. even people like mitt romney said it will be something to help hillary clinton. he doesn t support such a thing, doesn t think it s justified but that in the eyes of the main stream media it will be a big deal. we are talking about deals here a one-way street discussion, and in the general debate here in iran it s a different story. what they are trying to get is a much time as they can to build whatever they believe is a tragedyic weaponry system so they can have another deal. this is only a decoy deal for the iranian leadership, and the proof is that we have removed hezbollah and iran from the threat list. we have said we ll talk with assad. we have been sending so many signals to the regime. seemings the regime controls the deal, not the administration.
they should have given us a lot of help in the way that this was handled. he was very quick to apologize, and that s because he was advised by his advisers who i don t think fully understand the ideology that we re facing there, and he was a little quick to do that. i think as you can see in this particular instance he has not apologized. he regrets the incident, but he s a lot more measured in it. but that s the price of being the commander in the chief, and it s unfortunate, but that s what it s always been that way. megyn: yeah. you re going to take incoming from your critics. dick, when i look at the sentence, not to be too for too forensic. he said, look, it was tragedyic and heartbreaking, but, he goes on to say, you can t help but be proud generally. he seems to be drawing a distinct of i m not proud, obviously, of what this one soldier did, but i am proud of our troops generally. just taking the sentence
