A recap of the days news. When you listen to the rhetoric of the politicians and the leaders and the people in that movie, right, and i remember listen, i remember one of my friends, a white kid. I went to pick him up at his restaurant in louisiana. We were going out. I was going to lsu. He was talking about some incident that happened in the restaurant because his family owned it. I said, who are you talking about . He said, whos that . He said, just some that works for us. Then he caught himself. He didnt realize that word gets thrown around a lot. That i was there. This was 1987. 86. And it just it jolted me. It was a moment. It was like a moment of complete awakening for me. I think this movie, im sure youre hoping its going to be the same way for some people. I hope so. I mean, as an artist, as a filmmaker, whether youre whatever you are, you put your stuff out there and you hope that people connect to it. You know, in my case, don, ive had several films that people didnt get when
message to get to that goal. and i think that instead of modeling your rhetoric or your speeches or how you re campaigning like barack obama, you better be modeling the coalition that you are talking to after barack obama because he was able to be successful two times. thank you both very much for being here. coming up next, high conversation with republican con man and military veteran dan crenshaw about americans s hidden heros. he says more support is needed for those who serve without a unifo uniform, families of our military service members. military service members e of th, even though geico has been- ohhh. ooh ohh here we go, here we go. you got cut off there, what were you saying? oooo. oh no no. maybe that geico has been proudly serving the military for over 75 years? is that what you wanted to say? mhmmm. i have to say, you seemed a lot chattier on tv.

sit down and talk to us. he gives a list of people who are going to be hurt by the shutdown. how about that single mom who has to go into obama care and can t get the hours she needs to take care of her family? that s who we re trying to stand up for and make this thing work. do you think, congressman, that the president is just sort of trying to hang you guys out there on a spigot and keep you coming back with one concession after another and just punish you essentially? well, i mean, i will tell you this. i ve never seen our conference more unified. i really haven t. we understand that this is important. and i would argue this you mean, your conference is unifo uniform, because mike lee ran into a i m in the house. i know. but it doesn t all seem hunky-dory. in the senate, quite the opposite, right? in the house, we ve been unified. and the ones who were breaking ranks, 57 democrats have been voting for some of the smaller bills that would fund parts of the government
we ve got to get on with it message. it wasn t, i don t think at all, just domestic public audience that was the target. this is for individuals perhaps in kabul, perhaps some of us in unifo uniform. i remember him looking down the table saying tell me why we can t deploy the forces more rapidly. we figured out how to compress the time frame. when that date comes and that s the date at which there will be a conditions-based transition of tasks that begins to afghan forces and officials, in the responsible drawdown of forces. there was a recent u.s. army survey of residents in kandahar and found that the majority questioned the taliban more than the afghan government. how do you get beyond that? well, clearly, a component of a counterinsurgency campaign has to be the local government
