Segment 1

Cenk hosting today.  Obama’s speech on terrorism, the post-9/11 mentality, drone strikes etc.  Speech sounds good, but Cenk’s not buying it.  Look at the numbers of terrorist killed vs. civilians killed, including children.  Obama didn’t distinguish between personality strikes and signature strikes, when you don’t know who you are hitting.  And no mention of double taps.  VIDEO of Obama bragging that we don’t kill as many civilians as the terrorists do. And he uses a false choice that it’s either drone strikes or nothing.  Obama says conventional weapons or invasions would be worse options.  Obama says he doesn’t support targeting American citizens, but makes exceptions for al Awlaki.  The actions don’t live up to the rhetoric.  Don’t believe that this speech marks a change until we see the change.  Dissecting the Osama bin Laden raid and assassination.  Obama talking about briefing Congress about drone strikes.  VIDEO of Obama talking about closing Gitmo, which should never have been opened in the first place.

 

Segment 2

Obama talking about security leak investigations and a free press (AP scandal).  Obama talks about protecting journalists, but a few years ago he killed a media shield law.  The only thing Obama was completely right on was saying Muslims are part of the American family.  Jon Stewart and Bill O’Reilly cat fight.  John McCain vs. Senator Mike Lee cat fight about debt ceiling and budgetary issues.

 

Segment 3

Kristen Anderson is part of the Iowa GOP caucus, and filed a sexual harrassment claim, and she was fired.  London soldier attacks were by two people of Nigerian origin, one born in England, converts to Islam.  Update on Boston bomber friend shot dead by FBI – he had a knife and attacked the agent.
