and i feel i can and michael if you
right michael it's not about drug companies at the car
recently a published this article about how drug companies are now hiring something known
as publication planning agencies and there are a total of two hundred fifty uh... of
these agencies that exist and what this agency is due
is they specifically target medical journals
and do whatever they can to make the medical journals
publishing really great danes about new drugs that are coming out yeah okay so the reason
why is problematic is because people who work in the medical industry deciding whether or
not they want to prescribe a drug based on my medical journal say about them yet whenever
there's news about the medical industry go all the site
the journal of medicine or the journal lancet is another one right and analysts say that
as as this is a you know great new piece written about something like that weather you'd rather
procedure or results of that stuff
so it is the date that it kind of is the standard-bearer for luggage annual assume that these uh...
medical journals are highly credible and if they are reporting good things about a drug
then you know
do you think
and it's always good to have a healthy dose of skepticism but it wouldn't surprise me
if people did it
and so
ensuring out that not only r_d_
ease uh... publication planning agencies
uh... trying to get these are writers before the medical journals to publish meenal favorable
things about the medicine but they're also trying to ghost right the article and then
they'll pay be author thousands of dollars to publish that exact article
that that
deposits route right to submit exactly
uh... no it's uh... its
it's
even worse than lobbying in a way because your creative you're creating the legislation
if you're upset about lobbyists development for all this money into campaigns and what
not
to try and influence votes
this is personal is health
right uh... and this is also actually their submit admitted being coast written
it's fiction stuff or it is being in valor sir which is
the sense that uh... you know
i don't know the the guardian use it as the one that that that came up with this at
i don't it seems credible
it seems more than just on toward it seems like really like
this is bad and i don't agree on a criminal because it puts everyone's lives in danger
because they're being prescribed medicine that they think
is going to be perfectly fine but who knows what kind of side effects this medicine has
who knows whether or not it's a for the condition here
you know you have a medical journal that seeing all these great things about this you know
grad new uh... medicine that just came out and it you know doctors are really not medical
journal in thinking okay thanks to prescribe this to my patients you know and then knowingly
prescribed it's occasions when he can be highly dangerous right selling tickets i think it's
beyond a criminal and the fact
right now there's really no real regulation
that's investigating this in overseeing this in making sure that doesn't happen i think
that's the worst part of all of it because right now you have the guardian a publication
in the in the u_k_ writing about this but other than that was talking about it right
do we have any politicians talking about no why are they talking about it because they
get paid by pharmaceutical companies that you know there's guilty or listen to this
listen to this uh... quote this is from uh...
you know some is lying when they answer a question or with this is their sins
we've never done goes writing per se as i define it
okay
the rest of the world stops at the period there
we've never done goes right
uh... and says john rebecca with what may be that
it's mecca with within our own front of it
now we understand what's going on
uh... but he's the president scientific therapeutics information futuristic film that helped the
firm that help merck promote buyouts with us
series of pot of positive articles in medical journals
this is what john says whenever that paper but the people we work with have to have some
improve
input and approve it
juvenile when your payment thousands of dollars to publish it as is the f_a_a_'s assistant
somebody has to look into this and i don't know last time but it seems like this is this
is really bad
the then there's this other group banners seven years area
i feel that we're doing something good for mankind in the long run
we want to put up here in a very positive scientifically sound where
the profession grew out of a marketing umbrella but has moved under the science umbrella uh...
doesn't seem that way uh...
the alistair maps and british medical writers worked extensively for medical communications
and he dismisses the punishment seven reformed
as bullshit uh... there's no reform the and so somebody's gotta go and reform that is
really pretty scary ya but no one will reflect no
because when i mean why would a politician had an incentive to reform it
well that's true and because of our school companies arcane or back dot back the big
pharma
there's a county in new york and that is now planning on putting animal abusers on a registry
that is very similar to the sex offender registry and the reason why they're doing that is because
they believe that if you are abusing your animals it's a great indicator
that you are probably also abusing your children
okay so they they wind up put you on blast for you on this registry even if there's no
evidence that you're abusing kids it's not because it that they said that the possibility
of uh... uh... to the senate indicated that you are probably
incident that possibility exists because
most people s
from serial killers on down to abusers child abusers are also animal is an animal that
so there should be a great deal of cross and
but it's not the same that probable first of all why not
register
yeah suffolk county has a couple extra bucks to create this registry of had abusers
that alone spot but so no people have sonya is that
and against that and it's not because i don't love pets a look at it dot at my dot is my
wife locator i despise people movies they're animals it disgusts me
but i don't want to create registries for every single crime
because if we start doing that all the sudden johanna registry for i don't know the first
eating too much i would be another laura researchers victor
but it's not that complicated story of a prior for speeding and you know you do this again
but it's not a public registry outline where people just like the other hand i don't know
that this is going to be something that everybody can just sort of access but i think that the
it's like a gun ownership history view you should be left out of
adopt a dog if u
kick one of the head or dog fault
uh... habit that's different i get the sense that distance uh... a registry that's similar
to are a sex offender registry
and that's what it said i compared but it's not like your gonna move into the neighborhood
with their dogs and check to see if there's a set of pet offender in the neighborhood
it's more i think the track
you know repeated
uh... by a lesions of of of animal ownership
jeffrey dahmer's father wrote a book which i read which was a fascinating book jeffrey
dahmer the of the hideous
uh... killer and cannibal in uh... from milwaukee in the early nineties who
was killed in prison sala wrote a book as i wrote a book
really just to say
to sort of say a i've you know on this guy's father
on a
yes was a perfect father not at all tonight
is this all me is this person is killing people in cannibalizing then and and and sexually
abusing them is that because i was about father and i've got divorced and you know
towns a couple of times not that's not all the case
but he was talking about the songs that jeffrey was all
as a young kid
the jeffrey would be good
unit or trampled when it yet
and then the father looked into that and solve that that people serial killers and a lot
of child killers also tortured while you investigate them for that like if you see that someone
is abusing animals
should they suffer consequences for i think so uh... but do you automatically you know
accra criminalized and for things that they haven't done yet i'm i'm against that we're
not penalize them for that we're not we're not saying that we're just saying that you
know we keep in mind you know absolutely it is to stop people from
using animal and find that you keep an eye on those people you do the investigation you
make sure that there's no other foul play
uh... when it comes to the children are doing a domestic violence and all that
in terms of putting them on a public registry i'm against that as well
i know joe wanted ceaselessly make it stick you know that speakers
marketing maybe they hit the effective disciplining realized that these
man now it's not interest in this could be seen since it was just planning up
angelina
isolated hit my dog likes taking it
learn to not do that to be with us
educate 'em quietly chain
reasons unique united had upenn some folks
but that could be
maybe as ticket lookin accused of the thinking about it what it is ways it can be
focused
if one of the things above one of the consequences
of criminally abused in animal it but on a list of the width of the can you are
uh... maybe it'll make you less likely at some point down the road to criminally abused
now
that at the very core of this you know if it didn't dissuade people from just getting
animals to abuse them because of the put them in the public eye
they're not alone is good enough
and then if they say that there's an indicator summary from child services
said that you interview a family of child you know they do these trial interviews
the child doesn't always save my parents
hurt me or hit me abused convulsive divinity of the last edited the dogs will he hits the
dog a lot he
he plans about ties about of whatever and whenever it does
so it is an indicator that there might be some you know it sort of further evidence
that there may be some child abuse to because those types of people set at the same kind
of behavior that and i think this is a sign that something just because jeffrey
killed my statement every those of the house is going to be
uh... job you know accountable but i do think that there's a big hit there's nothing wrong
with that i don't see anything wrong with and making a list of people or that that the
venom
it is it's because it everyone is constantly in your business ok end
nick but only if you make your business everyone's business or you make your business so terrible
your business is to your calendar animals are dog fighting or
of multinational analyst stoplight let where you draw the line
anne what crimes you think should be on the list
i mean what you know it what what everybody's publicly held every kind of alice because
you can get a criminals rap sheet i mean that's that illustrate their you'd be a few months
someone then you you know you're of a seven-eleven
you you know you taking all these purse
you never actually so all your you are on the list your own list of uh... firefighters
your d_n_a_ goes into the national d_n_a_ days your fingerprints are on fingerprint
databases everywhere
if you don't do anything but if you haven't committed a crime that they don't know what
your fingerprint looks like or what your d_n_a_ looks like only with a cross reference that
the people who have done crown
it's easy to stay off of the list
you know i understand the gun owners why they're upset about it i mean i don't have don't care
about them but i understand why they would be upset because
all you've done is is a protected right
but the ones who are were free to register their guns okay that it sort of it is a societal
either
u_k_
uh... all right we got to take a quick break when we come back we have some fun stories
including what is no now
as the best marriage proposal after
uh... i can't wait to hear you have to say about that we have videotape so we'll be back
panther
michael sure uh... we uh... we're here today talking me a lot about israel and uh... and
netanyahu one final thought on that it you know israel has to look at
uh... what's going on in that part of the world and realize if as the arab world changes
they have to change would be a world through and that's that's really the the bottom line
to all of this
uh... whatever the changes need to be whatever concessions need to be
uh... the playing field looks differently than it did he even a year ago
israel cannot be the only part of that world that doesn't change
and i think that that's what the president is trying to
to say to to netanyahu trying to say to the world really
um... and that's the bottom line you know as i just said aids you know israel can't
let the world change without them assist something's gonna have to change over there and and i
feel there's a commitment to do that but
i've been fooled by that many many many times before
it remains to be seen
uh... we turn now than to american politics you know and i i i um... love electoral politics
i love that now you can talk about things with some degree of seriousness
in may
uh... of theo select when we seventeen-month nineteen months before we have an election
here
obd on monday and this is really were
really exciting news
tempo lengthy financing the running for president
pretty exciting
uh... and that's about as exciting as if in the effort in pontiac would believe in these
days
going with the um... with a
a little bit and i will policy summer and and the heavy south carolina
policy
uh... to to uh... to get
elected president uh... there's nothing that seems uh... with simple indeed it is going
to take suffered the kind of funny last and it's going to uh... take him
out of this pack they've uh... i'd just don't see him as ania anything other than a member
of the stack and maybe because he was a governor
uh... and he's well-respected and kind of
quiet he would be a vice presidential
potential vice presidential candidate there's nothing that seems terribly presidential data
now
his announcement
is not worth shattering news
and most people now with these these announcements happened well after everybody's assumed that
these people are going to run for president the announcement that they're not running
are much more interesting than the fact that they are uh...
but it does bring us to all friend sarah palance
as there has been talking quite a bit um... you know she she mentioned
her feelings about new great gingrich's uh... she's talked a little of that donald trump
there's actually a very little that happens in america on which it is not for over two
cents but
uh... what's going on now is sarah pillars starting to answer questions especially with
my car could be leading the race and and for the religious
figure leading the race and and
that syrupy love feels like she has a hole than i don't know what makes her feel this
way but she is a whole ministers servicer of conservative family values
uh... part of her party
uh... more so than rex and for a more more so than michelle bachman
uh... it doesn't seem like anybody except for mit romney doesn't feels that they have
that whole uh... on on that part of their part of a certain syrupy lynn is out now talking
about
um... you know with that she was talking with greta van susteren
uh... on fox news about
uh... the than
g_o_p_ about uh... the republicans in general and
you know we sit here and we say that there are a mess and they are in so i don't think
the president can win reelection
because the republicans are a mess because that is a terrible campaign strategy but when
you look at the republican party right now there is no knight in shining armor sort it
out on the horizon a lot of people are talking about mitch daniels but if you are counting
on mitch daniels to be your state here your last minute savior
uh... to get you into the white house
and that's pretty poor planning by but by the republicans
if you want a conversation about jeb bush
that's a totally different story they think they can get jeb bush run for president then
i think the playing field evens and i think the republicans can galvanize behind one candidate
bush is said that he's not running nobody but me a west clark are saying that he will
run
but i really feel like at the end of the day
jeb bush is going to get into this race and that would be a formidable opponent because
i do think the bush machine
i think the jeb bush can separate himself from his brother
i think that he's not much more aligned
uh... with the way people think of his father
he's as substantive politician
uh... he can get the state of florida bride away i mean florida's out of place jeb bush
runs they can concentrate on the midwest ohio a ho hi o wisconsin those state st savimbi
swing states that aren't always um... but you know i i think that the but people are
not people say it's easy to say
america's tired of the bushmen
but i think they're tired of the george bush name i don't think necessarily there
dissociate anything that george w_ bush did i would uh... bush and uh... anyway i you
know i i don't want him to run because i think he will be too good
opponents i don't know that he would win but i think that that would be what saves the
the the g_o_p_ now the g_o_p_ according to say repairman who has her finger on the polls
uh... i have no idea
uh... they
their font uh... let's let's roll this services clip number two jr this is uh... this is there
a pale in the former governor
alaska with uh... greta van susteren
what do you think the state of the republican party is right now
i think they have principles in the republican party are sounds a place in our platform are
great they videos secrecy system the characters within the party
are uh... you know their own they are what they are and uh...
mainstream media really likes to capitalize on some in-fighting and some mistakes made
within the party so they exacerbate it make it sound worse than it is
but the point that platform are right for america
parents have done the media to challenged a candidate for the meeting
and i cannot be impressed now but i mean really grill them on some other things they say about
policies in fairfax even the missteps a release but is later called a misstep because sometimes
those are the true intentions are the two true viewers and someone after twenty four
hours to serve uh... rethought it after getting some heat
absolutely that is the media's appropriate role
and a whole the mad beneficial or a potential candidate holding their feet to the fire not
playing a personal batches but making sure that the record is clear regarding what it
is that they say your that content the context of what it is that they're saying that the
media's role with the media doesn't play that role than there not a cornerstone of the democracy
that we would like to believe that they are planks in the platform planks in the platform
we have planks in the platform uh... capture do you know i i cannot watch another i love
when she
criticizes the media's missus in media
this is somebody who's pure existence is because the media and john mccain put on the map and
then she just ran with it
uh... yes she sits there criticize the media constantly aware she criticized them
uh... while talking with the media
uh... it's uh... issue they have created everything that is good or bad a value sarah and uh...
i feel like uh... the criticism is easy for you to do but you can only do it
when you're in front of the media the inouit when she says that there is in fighting others
in fighting but it's not fair but the focus on that in fact anant
what are we supposed to do
what are people who are watching the republicans get together to run
uh... a candidate supposed to do
we're not tourist bus not talk about the inviting well-dressed informers side doesn't like gays
and uh... mike huckabee is funny and
and the uh... movie you know we have been donald trump is a moron
and we can say those things but we don't want to talk about the in-fighting infighting
is part of what makes your party sarah sill fascinating to america right now
it is a mystery is it going to divide
are are they to be able to get behind one candidate is that possible for conservative
voters
to get behind someone like mit romney is a possible uh... four
uh... there's sort of mainstream republicans to get behind somebody who is going to be
a very conservative candidate those of the things that america wants to know it's all
about that in fighting at all about
the disaster that has been brought upon your party played very very very conservative eight
eur
i mean look at look at some of these were or republican george h w bush
the george h w bush
he the party's past inbox
gerald ford would be a democrat right now
and if you look at this party they are a master and we're gonna sit here and talk about the
republicans how can we not talk about what a mess they are
at when i thought i would have us they are because of you
because you were the vice presidential candidate in the cheap and the brandon away a brand
that item that was possible to cheapen but
if you're gonna come back here to criticize us
criticize the media criticize people bitter asking questions regarding your forum for
asking questions about the disarray of the republican party
it is a poor fascinating political story it doesn't have to be personal it doesn't have
to be about of the reasons they were i'm not sitting here talking about before both of
different candidates i'm staying right now you have a divided party that's gonna have
to come up with a candidate against what i think is a somewhat beatable president and
there are no where near coming up with a candidate and of course they don't have to be yes
but there are nowhere near being nowhere near is really what it it it is a disastrous situation
for that party right now as an objective fan of politics
as someone who likes watching this who wants to see
the fight begins
the in-fighting is part of the story here and so you know i think it's unfair to say
that all their criticizing us in the they wanna play gotcha now we want to see what's
going on we want to see what's going to come out of that party
and right now
uh... it's uh... there's some really did sort of questionable pins and questionable people
and questionable tactics coming out of their party
their kowtowing to achieve party they're trying to distance themselves from what seems to
be a a very mainstream incompetent candidate net romney
i don't see how it's going to work itself out
the in-fighting is what makes it interesting
uh... but you know the democrats are already and some of their political action committees
in some of the people that follow them very closely are already
uh... you know sort of taking them out to dry
uh... newt gingrich has had quite a week it was not the best week of beginning a presidential
campaign for sleep apnea nay
and forcing the things that happened that way were not terribly significant all going
to have to try and distance themselves from one another so that newt gingrich
uh... you know say take uh... but uh... paul ryan and his budget committee to task
those are things that happen all year long i mean to say that is anti-republican newt
you making a fool of yourself as out one iowa voters it will he
these guys are all going to have to come out and they're gonna have to distance themselves
from one another otherwise of there's no race there
um... the newt gingrich is uh... but uh... you know he's really done some
very very clever backpedaling
on that comment he's told rush limbaugh but even that wasn't singling out reid wylie single
out ryan
uh... he said that to other people when in fact
he singled out ryan uh... so a m newt has had a hard start but
what what now the democrats are seeing this as kind of the you know a field that they're
able to show the
pick these people against one another
and they're saying things that you're certainly in here repeated over the next year let's
look at uh... it's clip number one jr this is uh... priorities u_s_a_ it's a political
action group
that is going after and you'll see in in this ad but they're they're using
each other's repeating republicans against republicans right
he he he says the republican plan that would essentially and medicare he's too
he thinks the plants courageous and gingrich concerns in nicknames on the same pages alright
great essentially
wheaton
one
which page easy on today
xmas times
yeah i mean that's uh... that's what exactly where the democrats should be doing i think
that the little waste at all and a when nobody's paying attention but
it's really true i mean you you're getting you're getting the best that everyone you're
getting uh... and and you bring nikki hailey into it so i didn't know was running for president
the uh... the governor the newly elected governor of south carolina
uh... who uh... is now part of the the conversation she's made herself art of conversation but
i i i just love
held someone we've never heard of it is no being put in the cities of putting it put
up against uh... newt gingrich
uh... and mit romney here but it's just showing how republicans would have to go out
after themselves
uh... as primary season's always do but it's a very different flavor to the republican
primary season this time around so yes tim pollen season turned that fray and he seems
to be kind of
perhaps above the um... above the fray but he's not he's going to be running he's taking
on conservative
uh... munities easy adding and some conservative bona fide as to his uh... to his you resume
uh... place
speaking to speak and and and and entertaining
and that's the party
uh... bhopal and he's going to have to really reinvent himself and he's gonna
make himself a conservative
party candidate is that's not gonna happen he could do that for south carolina but he's
gonna have to go to other parts of the country of the republican part of the country
including minnesota
uh... in order to sell in self that way and minnesotans know that that's not exactly who
temple and he was because you don't have to be governor minnesota
but you know what it does bring his back full circle as as we started uh... you know months
ago and and that the presumption was that serve him and was going to be one of the names
mentioned deep into the primary season as she was largely for gotten
uh... and she had bad polling and she kind of receded in her own way
uh... but now she certainly speak again and they were asking her greta van susteren again
was asking her again about her willingness to run for president and what
you know what that's like what it's like being served island in seeing all this going on
this is uh... clip number four jr
union and i think that when that were happening and now so he wasn't there on the sense that
it was described in the way i think that you know how to find your belly out
do you have done
william a decision but he'll have that bangin night healing on it
uh... that's a great question i i think my problem is that i do have the fire in my belly
i m cell
uh... adamantly
um... the support of of of the good traditional things about america and are free enterprise
system and i want to make sure that america's put back on the right track and we only do
that by defeating all bata in twenty twelve i have that fire my belly yet a fire in the
belly hits the error that the after my problem is that if that's a marine fighter in my belly
to preserve and restore all that's good about america and that uh... you know i struggle
with that every single day
and she is a gift that keeps on giving uh...
that's her problem
so she identifies it is a problem and just different than everybody else's identification
of what her problems
that she has a fire her belly um... yeah
uh...
and please win
be the nominee farah out we would love to have you i i i you know i d i hope she runs
for president there is absolutely nothing substantive about her
and and she has as i said earlier cheapened that republican brand in a way that i didn't
think it could be cheapened
um... the but she has really taken that uh... the sheep she is the
personification
of the lack of depth that their politics
uh... shows this country and if she is the presidential nominee which i i don't think
she's going to be but if she is
uh... it's going to
make them the laughingstock id i think it would be a transit i don't think it would
just be a victory for obama i think would be a transit i think would be mcgovern like
i think people are have a very hard time voting for surveillance uh... as they did last time
i mean they you know that they couldn't bring themselves to vote for john mccain but but
cerebellum is a big part of that uh... it was uh... it's it's laughable
and you know and i'm not just saying these in in terms of hyperbole here i mean she has
nothing substantive she talks in big
you know we have to get read back on track what in the world is there a pale and said
substantively show it to me about getting trade back on track uh... the country's gotta
get back on track it doesn't seem so off-track
uh... it seems like it was put off track for eight years
by an irresponsible administration
now we have a responsible ministration these slowly
too slowly and in some cases not at all getting us back on track
but part of it was stopping the bleeding
uh... obama's got you know uh... of obama does nothing else is president of using neutral
president
italy's he wasn't what we have
at least he stopped the bleeding of this country
in criticizing all you want you can sit in this chair and you can say oh he's not do
enough this is week he's not taking position
i said agenda-setting twelve lee
uh... so many people are talking about this from within the democratic party
but you have to sort of the grateful for what you have
as much as you have to be grateful for what you don't have
and we don't have the policies that were there for eight years
we don't have somebody continuing those policies we don't have judges going into the bench
that are
to conservative and too crazy mean brock obama has given us
to sue prine court justices that are gonna look uh... at and social change in this country
and appreciate and appreciate it rather than rejected
and i think all of those things are important to have to be grateful
for what you don't have when you have something that may be isn't thrilling as much as you
wish it had uh... and certainly when you look at surveillance that is one of the things
you have to be happy to you don't have
i do hope we have for through at least the middle of november of two thousand twelve
i'm michael for your uh... watching him
