while u.s. lawmakers in washington big over the budget and blame across the aisle for the gridlock calling opposing colleagues relatively small stream group of. who are an anchor dragging down the budget negotiation process give me a berth another group of decision makers has been weighing in on the to be one of the country's top credit agencies telling the feds something has to get done on this debt ratings agency standard and poor and moody's has been warning for months that the u.s. debt could threaten the country's golden aaa credit rating telling investors in u.s. bonds essentially they may have to worry about getting paid the u.s. debt problem is big fourteen trillion dollars big meanwhile the solutions lawmakers are coming up with to solve this problem are small this tiny dot represents even the larger sixty billion dollars in cuts republican lawmakers originally proposed meanwhile the u.s. government continues to spend a lot more than it takes in resulting in more than a trillion dollars

ground forces or even u.s. special forces personnel on limited bases in the libyan khan conflict so what we're seeing now is obama warning to put leon panetta who is basically a former democratic congressman he was chief of staff to president clinton he's basically a democratic party hack although he has had had served his term at the cia as a director and the other issue of course is making general david petraeus the director of the cia replace saying mr panetta and we all know that petraeus the author of the guy who came up with this whole surge in iraq in afghanistan is somebody that the neoconservative certainly like they even were talking about running in for president on the republican. ticket what this is showing is that there is a trend to militarize the central intelligence agency which is after all and has always been run by civilians it's been pointed out that leon panetta is actually the first democratic secretary of defense since one nine hundred ninety seven there may not be as much independence i

are u.s. taxpayers getting what they pay for if it's a con it's a con and useful defense is the greatest fraud in the department of finance and believe me it's had a lot of competitors. i really i really believe this i'd. missile defense is the longest running fraud in the in the history of the u.s. department of defense. if the listed strikes are so improbable why seek to repel many such cots and from space. what if missile defense is a disguise for envision beyond simply destroying this site. there's going to be an inherent in the satellite capability with any ballistic missile defense system regardless of whether it's located in space or elsewhere. and i think that that's effectively on oh boy the. ballistic missile in some senses is more difficult than targeting a satellite and therefore targeting a satellite is almost always ok filippi that's associated with missile defense system. in february two thousand and eight the united states destroyed a disabled satellite of its own using missile

twelve days into the u.s. bombing of libya. u.s. congressmen were hoping to finally get some answers but after two hours of questioning the secretary of defense and chairman of the joint chiefs of staff there were still confusion about the u.s. is engaged i think a policy success would be the removal of the qaddafi regime a military mission is a limited one and does not include regime change. who the rebels are we don't have much visibility into into those who have risen against gadhafi and each element has its own agenda. and whether the us will arm them discuss our plans if any regarding arming the rebels they seem to be getting their butts whipped but gates and mullen passed the buck on that one deferring to the white house but it was ok to decided to bristle and there are bits that we would clearly have a problem with that how long the u.s. will stay a bottom line is no one can predict for you how long it will take. for that to happen and whether the u.s. is at war at all these are combat operations were intended to be combat op

scenario study by the u.s. forces by knocking out fifty u.s. military satellites chinese could literally cripple the u.s. . they could prevent the military from being able to communicate with its forces they could blind the u.s. intelligence community which uses electro optics satellites. military force movements around the world and they could also cripple the guidance systems that are used on persuasion guided munitions. in many sense it could be a kind of an electronic pearl harbor. without space the u.s. would be unable to conduct any type of military operation in an effective way. the civilian space industry generates more than two hundred fifty billion dollars every year the destruction of even a single orbiting satellite could put at risk the economy daily lives and millions of citizens. if you look at space lots of times you think about. most people. every day. when you open yourself to make. money out of the. satellite t.v. and live news from around the world. system. traffic control and even in your own. weather forecasting faster mon

actually u.s. policy is is very consistent they are backing up their people despite the fact that repressive dictators and then they're going after moammar gadhafi because he's the low hanging fruit of course no one in the world really likes small market i think. karma lowing for me reagan had his his grenade and bush sr went after noriega in panama it's it seems like every president has to have a little war in imitation perhaps of margaret thatcher and you know hopefully a short one and george bush is of course didn't turn out that way. do you think that it's possible that that's. what you're describing is that that's the primary motivation here or well he would just just leave it at that is it possible that that's that this is really more a political calculus than than a military one. yeah i mean and i think you know what is sort of ironic is that the the voice of sanity in terms of senior officials within the administration that seems to be emerging here is the outgoing defense secretary robert

the u.s. debt problem is big fourteen trillion dollars big meanwhile the solutions lawmakers are coming up with to solve this problem are small. as the u.s. tries to reach twenty eleven budget and threats to its credit rating. and every year fourteen thousand women die as a result of domestic violence in russia even more decide to suffer in silence lawyers say only a change in the law allowing greater involvement in family life can help the victims are. reports. it was a vicious cycle at the press club we had clients he raised his hands it happened so many times held on for as long as i could so when i realized that it could end up then that i found the center where they hope women took my child and ran to save my life. it wasn't this help center named ideas though where he was finally able to cope with the scars left by years of emotional and physical abuse. my child witnessed it all and it's twice as hard for me to understand that i told the rates at all that i thought i was guilty for somet

well u.s. defense secretary robert gates chairman of the joint chiefs of staff placed a grilling front of congress over the meantime kate said that washington shouldn't assist the rebels and should instead build them to other countries. twelve days into the u.s. bombing of libya. u.s. congressmen were hoping to finally get some answers but after two hours of questioning the secretary of defense and chairman of the joint chiefs of staff they were still confusion about the u.s. is the end game i think a policy success would be the removal of the khadafi regime a military mission is a limited one and does not include regime change. who the rebels that we don't have much visibility into and of those who have risen against each element has its own agenda. and whether the u.s. will arm them discuss our plans if you need regarding arming the rebels they seem to be getting their butts whipped but keep in mind pass the buck that one differing to the white house but if it was ok to decided to pursue this

to move the country forward critics here paint a picture of near continuous failure of u.s. policymakers to do the job of president barack obama's former right hand economic man so the stimulus should have been bigger well the decision was political i mean the the judgment was we wanted to get as much discomposed fiscal stimulus as we could meanwhile the wall street bailouts of the time and probably deserve reaction favored finance they say to the big banks but they have not really gotten our economy going again. the financial reforms passed by washington supposed to bend too big to fail haven't banks still aren't required to hold enough cash that's just one reason critics like this former j.p. morgan exact site putting the country on course for another disaster. there are plans on what one says about crisis but i have to say yes the concentration of power in finance is greater today than it was before this crisis and that's courtesy of the cash flow from wall street to politicians and lobbying corrupting real reform and believe in the leaders top to make it despite some wit

twelve days since the u.s. bombing of libya. u.s. congressmen were hoping to finally get some answers but after two hours of questioning the secretary of defense and chairman of the joint chiefs of staff they were still confusion about the u.s. is ending and i think a policy success would be the removal of. the khadafi regime the military mission is a limited one and does not include regime change. who the rebels are we don't have much visibility into into those who have risen against each element has its own agenda. it's pretty much a pickup ball game at this point and whether the u.s. will arm them discuss our plans if you need regarding arming the rebels they seem to be getting their butts whipped but gates and mullen pass the buck and that one's referring to the white house what if it was ok to the side of the missile in there and or at least we would clearly have a problem about how long the u.s. will stay the bottom line is no one can predict for you how long it will take. for that to happen and whether the u.s. is at war at al

allowing the u.s. to bomb his country using u.s. weapons and train forces to kill domestic political opponents has contributed greatly to this destabilization there so the united states may have to withdraw its covert forces from yemen if the next government is not pliant as as has been and relocate them to djibouti in north africa which is really becoming the hub for u.s. military operations throughout the middle east but jeremy if you look at these that trouble areas like yemen for example i mean if you build out civil society you're still. promoting a perilous policies but more humane ones and you're involving yourself and i'm faced with right i'm not saying you but i mean that thinking so what what's the endgame for the united states when it comes to these and stabler genes that obviously do have terrorist implications. but we can't necessarily afford to you know intervene in all of these countries that have potential threats well i mean look the fact is that one of the main motivators for al qaeda is the fact that the united st
