EVERYONE I AM WENDY GRIFFITH.
AND I AM MARK MARTIN.
TODAY FURIOUS LAWMAKERS TRY TO
GET TO THE BOTTOM WITH MULTIPLE
HEARINGS, JOHN JESSUP THERE.
REPORTER: THE TONE WAS SET
FROM THE START.
OBAMA IS SADLY MISTAKEN IF HE
THINGS LAWMAKERS WON'T GET TO
THE BOTTOM OF THE BENGHAZI
ATTACK. THIS ADMINISTRATION
IS CONTINUING TO PUT OUT THINGS
THAT ARE NOT TRUE.
WHAT IS HARD TO STOMACH IS
THE ADMINISTRATION'S COMPLETE
FAILURE TO PROVIDE ANSWERS.
PARTISAN LINES CLEARLY
DRAWNFUL
IF YOU WANT AN HONEST
INVESTIGATION OF THIS TRAGEDY,
WE WILL JOIN YOU.
IF YOU WANT TO PERSIST IN TRYING
SOME HOW TO PUT THIS, LAY THIS
AT THE DOORSTEP OF THE PRESIDENT
OR SECRETARY OF STATE OR UNITED
NATIONS AMBASSADOR, YOU WILL
FIND US READY AND WILLING TO
RESIST TO THE TEETH. LITTLE
NEW INFORMATION CAME TO LIGHT IN
THIS FIRST OPEN HEARING SINCE
THE ELECTION.
NO WAY OUR DIPLOMATS WILL BE
AT ZERO RISK.
IT WAS ABOUT THE LACK OF
SECURITY AFTER THE DEATHS OF
CHRIS STEVENS, STATE DEPARTMENT
OFFICIALS AND TWO CIA AGENTS.
THEY FOCUS ON U.N. AMBASSADOR
SUSAN RICE FOR BLAMING
ANTI-ISLAMIC VIDEO.
DEMOCRATS ALL THE WAY UP TO THE
PRESIDENT DEFENDED HER.
WHEN THEY GO AFTER THE U.N.
AMBASSADOR APPARENTLY BECAUSE
THEY THINK SHE IS AN EASY
TARGET, THEY HAVE A PROBLEM WITH
ME.
A GROWING NUMBER OF -- THERE
IS A PETITION WITH THE NAMES OF
100,000 AMERICANS REQUESTING A
SPECIAL PROSECUTOR BE APPOINTED
TO THE ATTACKS, FBI AND STATE
DEPARTMENT ARE CONDUCTING THEIR
OWN INDEPENDENT INVESTIGATION
INTO WHAT HAPPENED.
JOHN JESSUP, CBN NEWS, CAPITOL
HILL.
THANK YOU, JOHN.
NEWLY RESIGNED CIA DIRECTOR
DAVID PATRAEUS WILL TESTIFY AT
THIS WEEK'S LIBYA HEARING AND
SET TO APPEAR FRIDAY IN A
CLOSED-DOOR SESSION.
HE TRAVELED TO BENGHAZI TO
CONDUCT AN INVESTIGATION SHORTLY
AFTER.
PATRAEUS RESIGNED LAST WEEK
CITING AN EXTRAMARITAL AFFAIR.
GENERAL BOYKIN SAID HIS FRIEND
DIDN'T MAKE A MISTAKE, HE MADE A
CHOICE.
IF YOU DON'T HAVE PEOPLE THAT
WILL HOLD YOU ACCOUNTABLE AND
YOU ARE IN A POSITION OF GREAT
POWER AND AUTHORITY, THERE IS A
LIKELIHOOD YOU ARE GOING TO GET
INTO THIS KIND OF TROUBLE IF NO
ONE AROUND YOU WILL SPEAK THE
TRUTH TO YOU.
THAT IS WHAT HAPPENED WITH DAVID
PATRAEUS.
PATRAEUS SAYS HE DIDN'T PASS
CLASSIFIED INFORMATION TO THE
WOMAN HE WAS HAVING AN AFFAIR
WITH.
HIS REDS NATION FROM CIA WAS NOT
LED TO BENGHAZI ATTACK.
ISRAEL IS MOVING FORCES
TOWARDS THE GAZA STRIP PREPARING
FOR A POSSIBLE GROUND INVASION.
ISRAEL'S AIR FORCE HAS LAUNCHED
DEADLY ATTACKS ON HAMAS AND
GAZA.
CHRIS MITCHELL HAS MORE.
REPORTER: OPERATION PILLAR OF
DEFENSE IS AIMED AT HALTING
MASSIVE ATTACKS OVER THE LAST
DAYS AND WEEKS.
MORE THAN 140 ROCKETS SINCE
THE BEGINNING OF THE OPERATION.
ISRAEL UPPED THE ANTI WHEN
THEY CARRIED OUT AND KILLED THE
TOP OFFICIAL IN HAMAS.
YOU CAN SEE THE TRACE OF ONE
OF THE ROCKETS FIRED OUT OF GAZA
CITY.
THIS IS A BATTLE THAT HAS BEEN
GOING ON SEVERAL DAYS.
ISRAEL SAID THEY WERE
TARGETING ROCKET STRIKES WHEN
THEY WERE INTERCEPTIONING
ROCKETS.
YOU CAN SEE THE PLUMES OF
SMOKE FROM THE IRON DOME.
NOTIFYING ALL THE RESIDENTS, YOU
CAN HEAR THE BOOMS OF THE IRON
DOME SHOOTING DOWN THE MISSILES.
THE IRON DOME ARE 80%
EFFECTIVE.
ON THURSDAY ONE MISSILE GOT
THROUGH.
WE ARE HERE NOT TOO FAR FROM
THE GAZA STRIP.
THERE HAS BEEN A DIRECT HIT BY
ONE OF THE ROCKETS, THREE
ISRAELIS HAVE BEEN KILLED,
OTHERS WOUNDED.
THIS IS THE KIND OF AFTERMATH OF
THE ROCKETS FIRED
INDISCRIMINATELY.
A WHISTLE AND A BIG BOOM.
WE SAW THE BUILDING DESTROYED.
FIRST I THOUGHT TO MY MOM IF SHE
IS OKAY.
I AM STILL SHAKING, VERY SCARED.
RIGHT NOW, VERY SCARED.
I DON'T KNOW IF I AM SAFE.
NETANYAHU SPOKE WITH OBAMA.
OBAMA BACKED ISRAEL'S RIGHT TO
DEFEND THEMSELVES AND URGED
ISRAEL TO PREVENT CIVILIAN
CASUALTIES.
DOES IT DEPEND ON WHAT HAMAS
DOES?
I EXPECT THEM TO GET THE
MESSAGE WE SENT THEM.
IF IT WILL NOT BE LIKE THAT WE
WILL CONTINUE.
NEW IT IS NOT CLEAR IF ISRAEL
WILL MOUNT A GROUND.
RESERVISTS HAVE BEEN CALLED UP.
ISRAEL EXPECTS THE ROCKET FIRE
TO CONTINUE.
CHRIS MITCHELL, CBN NEWS,
ISRAEL.
MITT ROMNEY SAYS THE
PRESIDENT WON THE RE-ELECTION
BECAUSE OF GIFTS HE GAVE TO
BLACKS, HISPANICS AND DONORS.
MITT ROMNEY: HE GAVE
EXTRAORDINARY GIFTS AND WORKED
AGGRESSIVELY TO TURN THEM OUT TO
VOTE.
ALLOWING CHILDREN TO STAY IN
THE COUNTRY AND HEALTH CARE
OVERHAUL WHICH ALLOWS CHILDREN
TO STAY ON THEIR PARENT'S
INSURANCE LONGER.
LOUISIANA GOVERNOR BOBBY JINDAL
SAYS I REJECT THAT NOTION.
PRESIDENT SAID IT WAS
ENCOURAGING TO SEE LATINO RISE
THIS YEAR.
MR. OBAMA SAYS WE NEED TO SEIZE
THE MOMENT.
DAVID BRODY TALKED WITH
INFLUENTIAL HISPANIC LEADERS AND
THE HISPANIC VOTE
PRESIDENT OBAMA'S RE-ELECTION
HAS BECOME A WAKE UP CALL, LACK
OF OUTREACH TO HISPANIC VOTERS,
GOP SLIDE FROM 44% IN 2004, 31%
IN 2008.
IT HAS SOME CHANGING THEIR TUNE.
WE HAVE TO GET RID OF
IMMIGRATION, CONTROL THE
BOOEDER, CREATE A PATHWAY, YOU
DON'T SAY YOU HAVE TO GO HOME.
THAT IS A POSITION I HAVE
EVOLVED ON.
IN THE PASSED WEEK THEY
SIGNALLED THEY MAY MOVE ON THE
ISSUE.
SAMI RODRIGUEZ HACK EM
IMPLORING THE GOP FOR YEARS.
ON THIS WEEK'S "THE BRODY FILE"
SAMI HAD THIS MESSAGE FOR THE
SPEAKER.
MR. SPEAKER, I THINK THE
REPUBLICAN PARTY AND ENTIRE
NATION WOKE UP TO LABAMBA.
THEY LISTENED TO HISPANIC MUSIC
PLAYING FROM CALIFORNIA TO NEW
YORK.
THIS IS A LATINO HOUR SOCIALLY,
POLITICALLY, SPIRITUALLY.
RODRIGUEZ'S ORGANIZATION IS
JOINING FORCES WITH OTHER
PROMINENT EVANGELICALS.
WE HAVE GREAT ORGANIZATION,
NOT IN FAVOR OF AMNESTY BUT IN
FAVOR OF RECONCILING THE RULE OF
LAW WITH PROVIDING A PATHWAY,
TREATING THE STRANGER AMONGST US
AS ONE OF OURSELVES, RECONCILING
ROMANS 13 AND LEVITICUS 19.
WE WANT THE MEMBERS IN THE PEWS
SERVING AS ADVOCATES IN FAVOR OF
IMMIGRATION REFORM.
RODRIGUEZ BELIEVES A
PRO-FAMILY CONSERVATIVE
REPUBLICAN PARTY CAN MAKE
SERIOUS INROADS WITH THE LATINO
COMMUNITY.
69% THINK PUBLIC SCHOOLS SHOULD
TEACH BIBLICAL VALUES AND 66%
BELIEVE IN TRADITIONAL MARRIAGE.
RODRIGUEZ SAID UNTIL IMMIGRATION
REFORM IS SOLVED, NOT MUCH WILL
CHANGE.
IMMIGRATION REFORM IS THE
PROVERBIAL JORDAN IN ORDER FOR
THEM TO STEP INTO THE PROMISE
LAND OF THE ELECTORATE.

CROWDS RECENTLY GATHERED IN

SLOWLY ENFORCED IN OUR
COUNTRIES.
WE WANT TO MARCH AGAINST IT.
WE WANT TO DEFEND THE

I THINK IT IS NOT ONLY A
PROBLEM OF FRANCE.
IT IS A PROBLEM OF EUROPE,
PROBLEM ALSO FOR USA.

UP NEXT, FROM CHILD VICTIMS
TO SIGH YOUNG WINNERS, THE STORY
OF R.A. DICKY.
WELCOME BACK, NEW YORK METS
PITCHER RA DICKEY HAS BEEN
HONORED WITH THIS YEAR'S CY
YOUNG IWARD.
WES HAS MORE ON HOW THE
PLAYER OVERCAME CHILDHOOD ABUSE
THROUGH HIS FAITH.
STRETCHING NEARLY 20,000 FEET
INTO THE SKY, KILIMANJARO IS THE
HIGHEST MOUNTAIN AFRICA AND
TALLEST FREE STANDING MOUNTAIN
IN THE WORLD.
THIS SUMMER, RA DICKEY DECIDED
TO CLIMB BECAUSE HE WANTED TO
MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
IN THE OFF SEASON HE JOINED
BOMBAY TEAM CHALLENGE, A
NON-PROFIT DEDICATED TO ENDING
HUMAN TRAFFICKING.
I FELT LIKE GOD WAS CALLING
ME TO STEP OUT AND TRY TO BRING
AWARENESS TO SOMETHING THAT
SOMETIMES IS LIKE THE WHITE
ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM.
RA DICKEY BLOGGED ABOUT THE
CLIMB.
THERE WAS A SECRET HE KEPT FROM
EVERYONE FOR MORE THAN 20 YEARS.
I UM WAS VICTIMIZED BY A BABY
SISTER A FEW TIMES OVER THE
COURSE OF A SUMMER AND LATER AS
THE SUMMER TURNED TO FALL.
BY A 17-YEAR-OLD BOY.
YOU FEEL LIKE YOU HAVE TAKEN
PART IN SOMETHING SO WICKED, AT
SOME LEVEL IT HAS TO BE PARTLY
YOUR FAULT.
I CERTAINLY FELT LIKE I WAS LESS
THAN HUMAN.
AS A KID, RA DICKEY STARRED
IN THE FOOTBALL, BASKETBALL AND
BASEBALL TEAMS.
IN HIS BOOK "WHEREVER I WIND UP"
RA DICKEY RIDES THESE WERE NOT
JUST ACTIVITIES THEY WERE AN
ESCAPE.
I WAS LOOKING TO CONTROL
THINGS.
SPORTS OFFERED ME A SANCTUARY IN
THAT REGARD.
IT WAS SOMETHING IF I PUT IN THE
TIME, I COULD BE GOOD AT IT.
I ALWAYS FOUND REFUGE THERE.
AS HE GOT OLDER, RA DICKEY
CONTINUED TO ON IN SPORTS.
IN 1996 HE WON A BRONZE MEDAL
AND DRAFTED BY TEXAS RANGERS.
RANGERS OFFERED HIM AN $800,000
CONTRACT UNTIL THEY NOTICED HIS
ARM WAS HANGING FUNNY.
DOUG MELVIN WAS THE MANAGER.
HE ASKED FOR A TEST.
THEY NOTICED HE WAS MISSING
THE OWNER LATERAL LIGAMENT.
HE SHOUMDN'T BE ABLE TO TURN A
DOORKNOB LET ALONE A BALL.
THEY SLASHED HIS OFFER.
HE SIGNED ANY WAY.
HIS CAREER WAS DISAPPOINTING.
HE HAD TO MAKE A MAJOR CHANGE.
HIS PITCHING COACH HE ADOPT THE
KNUCKLE BALL.
IT IS THE HARDEST PITCH TO HIT
AND ALSO TO THROW.
ON APRIL 6TH, 2006, RA DICKEY
WASN'T ONE OF THEM.
IN HIS FIRST AND ONLY START
FOR THE RANGERS THAT YEAR, R.A.
GAVE UP A MAJOR LEAGUE RECORD
SIX HOME RUNS.
HE WAS PROMPTLY SENT TO THE
MINOR LEAGUES.
HE ASKED GOD FOR HELP.
I FELT HIM SAYING YOU HAVE BEEN
RUNNING AND HIDING LONG ENOUGH
NOW.
I HAVE SOMETHING ELSE FOR YOU.
I TOOK A STEP OF FAITH.
ONCE I TOOK THE STEPS TO SAY I
WAS SEXUALLY ABUSED, THIS IS
WHAT HAPPENED, IT WAS AN
ENORMOUS, I FELT LIKE AN ATLAS
AND SOMEBODY TOOK THE WORLD OFF
MY SHOULDERS.
RA CONTINUED TO PLAY BASEBALL
AND TAME TODAY KNUCKLE BALL.
IN 2010, AGE OF 35, JOINED NEW
YORK METS AND POST TODAY BEST
ERA'S IN THE LEGAL.
I TRYED TO CONTROL THINGS,
PEOPLE AND SPORTS.
IT WAS CRUMBLING DOWN AROUND ME.
HE SAID ENOUGH.
GIVE IT UP, SURRENDER IT.
THE MORE I TRUSTED GOD, THE
BIGGER HE GOT.
AS RA DICKEY ASCENDED
KILIMANJA
KILIMANJARO, HE DEALT WITH
HALLUCINATIONS AND SHORTNESS OF
BREATH.
HE WOULDN'T STOP CH AS A FELLOW
VICTIM OF SEXUAL ABUSE, HE KNEW
HE HAD TO HELP.
I FELT HOW DARK AND COLD I AM,
HOW COLD ARE THEY IN THE RED
LIGHT DISTRICTS?
ACROSS THE WORLD BOMBAY TEAM
CHALLENGE RAISED MORE THAN
$100,000 BECAUSE OF THE CLIMB.
ON A CHILLY JANUARY MORNING, RA
DICKEY REACHED THE TOP OF THE
MOUNTAIN AND LOOKED DOWN.
THERE ARE A LOT OF THINGS
THAT HAVEN'T GONE TO SCRIPT FOR
ME THAT I WOULD HAVE WRITTEN OUT
A CERTAIN WAY.
GOD HAS HAD SOMETHING BETTER.
ONLY IN REFLECTION HAVE I SEEN
IT.
HE HAS GIVEN ME A SECOND AND
THIRD AND FOURTH AND FIFTH
CHANCE TO INFINITY.
HE IS A SAVIOR TO ME.
SUCH A SWEET RELATIONSHIP.
UP NEXT, TAKING A WALK IN
ANOTHER'S SHOES.
A TEXAS PASTOR IS RAISING
AWARENESS BY LIVING ON THE
STREETS FOR 30 DAYS.
A TEXAS PASTOR RAISING
AWARENESS FOR THE HOMELESS IN
HIS CITY.
LEON REYES LEFT TO LIVE ON
THE STREETS FOR 30 DAYS.
HE PLANS ON SURVIVING ON THE
SMALL AMOUNTS OF CHANGE HE'LL
RECEIVE FROM PLAYING HIS GUITAR.
I DON'T HAVE UNDERSTANDING OF
SURVIVAL OR METHODS OF FOOD AND
MONEY.
I AM JUMPING OUT THERE TO SEE
WHAT HAPPENS AND RELY ON GOD AND
MY FAITH.
REYES SAYS BIGGEST CHALLENGE
IS GETTING ENOUGH SLEEP.
HE GOES TO SHELTERS AND PARKING
GARAGES.
HE IS DOCUMENTING IT ON CAMERA.
30 DAYS MIGHT NOT SEEM LIKE THAT
LONG.
IMAGINE, THAT IS A LONG TIME IF
YOU ARE JUST SURVIVING ON CHANGE
AND SLEEPING IN PARKING GARAGES.
I WOULD LIKE TO CATCH UP
WITH HIM AFTER IT IS OVER AND
WHAT HE LEARNED.
THAT IS ALL FOR THIS EDITION
OF "NEWSWATCH."
