" And Gallup also found. Now for the first time since his inauguration. More seniors now disapprove of the president that approve. I got so those you know seniors attending town halls across the country this -- a Republican operatives after all. And the brave men and women of the CIA who risked their lives to keep this country safe are being targeted by attorney general Eric Holder but. New Mexico governor Bill Richardson who just happens to be a close ally of the Obama administration. While he's off the hook a year long federal investigation into Richardson. Has -- called off. Now -- been accused of orchestrating a paid a place skiing after a major donor of his was awarded a lucrative government contract. -- the scandal even caused Richardson to step down as mr. Obama's choice for commerce secretary."
" Remember that's. -- the president elect not to move forward. With my nomination at this time -- CDR investigation. Would have forced an untenable delay. In the confirmation process."
" While that was then this is now at a source close to the investigation tells the AP quote. It's over there's nothing it was killed in Washington. -- must be good to have friends in high places."
" And -- universal nightmare segment is brought to you by the UK's national health service. A British man named mark Watson visited this hospital to have his appendix removed. -- to his surprise he returned to this very same hospital a month later with a ruptured appendix that's right the first time around. The hospital actually didn't remove Watson's appendix. And when he went back the second time he got an infection which set him back up third time and the results he lost his job.

Well they didn't realize that would be taxable a lot of people don't realize that so they're not happy and kinda surprised. When they found out."
" I think that's generally -- people react when they learn about taxes under President Obama. And that is the news tonight from Kennedy's America."
