TONIGHT ON "NEWSWATCH".

BUDGET BATTLES. THE PRESIDENT

CALLS ON CONGRESS TO FIND A WAY

TO BALANCE THE BUDGET AND AVOID

DEVASTATING CUTS.

PLUS NEW EVIDENCE IN THE

NEWTOWN MASSACRE. AUTHORITIES

FIND A PILE OF VIDEO GAMES IN

THE SHOOTER'S HOME.

AND ESCAPE AND HOW THESE

REFUGEES ARE FLEEING SYRIA AND

THE CHRISTIANS THAT ARE HELPING

THEM TO STAY ALIVE. ALL THIS

TONIGHT ON "NEWSWATCH".

GOOD EVENING. I AM MARK

MARTIN.

AND I AM WENDY GRIFFITH.

AND

BUDGET IS SLASHED ACROSS THE

BOARD AND THAT IS UNLESS THE

PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS WORK ON

THE DEFICIT.

BUT AS JENNIFER EXPLAINS LAW

MAKERS HAVE DIFFERENT IDEAS HOW

TO ACHIEVE SAVINGS.

AMERICA'S BELOVED FIRST

RESPONDERS ARE THE TYPE OF

WORKERS MAY LOSE THEIR JOBS AND

ARE ALLOWED TO TAKE EFFECT.

BORDER CONTROL AGENTS WILL

FIND THEIR HOURS REFUSED. FBI

AGENTS FURLOUGHED.

THOUSANDS OF PARENTS WILL

HAVE TO SCRAMBLE TO FIND CHILD

CARE FOR THEIR KIDS. PRESIDENT

OBAMA SUGGESTED THAT MEMBERS OF

CONGRESS ARE BEHAVING LIKE

BUTCHERS.

IF CONGRESS ALLOWS THIS MEAT

CLEAVER APPROACH TO TAKE PLACE

IT WILL JEOPARDIZE OUR MILITARY

READINESS AND MEDICAL RESEARCH.

MANY LEADERS WARN THE

AUTOMATIC CUTS ARE TOO SEVERE

FOR THE FRAGILE ECONOMY TO WITH

STAND. HOW TO AVOID IT IS

PURELY POLITICAL.

CONTROVERSIAL

OVER THE CUTS COMES DOWN TO ONE

THING: TAXES. PRESIDENT OBAMA

WANTS THE GOP LEADERS TO RAISE

IT BUT THEY SAID HE GOT THE

NEGOTIATIONS HE WANTED OVER THE

FISCAL

CLIFF. JOHN BOEHNER SAYS THAT

TIME IS OVER. CONGRESS WON'T

BE

IN SESSION UNTIL NEXT WEEKDAYS

BEFORE THE SPENDING CUT ARE

SCHEDULED TO TAKE EFFECT.

BRIEF

NEWS, THE WHITE HOUSE.

WE ARE JOINED BY SETON AND

THANK YOU FOR JOINING US TODAY.

THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME. I

APPRECIATE IT.

WHAT'S THE STATUS OF THE

SEQUFTURE AT THIS POINT? IS

THERE ANY SIGN OF A COMPROMISE

BETWEEN THE WHITE HOUSE AND

CONGRESS?

PRESIDENT OBAMA CAMPAIGNED

ON

THE TAX INCREASES. HE HAS

GOTTEN THOSE. NOW HE'S CREATED

ANOTHER ARTIFICIAL IMPEDIMENT

TO

PROGRESS AND MANUFACTURED

COORDINATE CRISIS AND WE NEED

ANOTHER ONE TO CLOSE THE GAP

BUT

NOW HE HAS CREATED THIS

IMPEDIMENT. HE DOESN'T WANT IT

TO STOP THERE ARE TWO PORTIONS

OF IT. ONE IS DEFENSE CUTS

WHICH IS WHAT HE WANTS AND WHY

HE IS APPOINTED CHUCK HAGEL AS

SECRETARY OF DEFENSE AND IT'S

OUT OF TRILLION DOLLAR BUDGET.

IT'S NOTHING. IT'S BARELY

NOTICEABLE. IT'S WHAT THEY

SPEND ON POST IT NOTES AT

COMMERCE SO TO SAY THIS IS

DEVASTATING IS WRONG. HE'S

TRYING TO BLAME REPUBLICANS FOR

IT BUT IN REALITY IT CAME FROM

HIS

OFFICE AND IT DOES NOTHING AND

THEY WILL CUT THE SPENDING AND

NOBODY WILL NOTICE EXCEPT WHEN

IT COMES TO THE DEFICIT WHICH

WILL GO DOWN A LITTLE BIT AFTER

THE CUTS.

SO WHAT DO YOU THINK THE END

GAME IS? IS THIS A SET UP TO

MAKE THE REPUBLICANS LOOK BAD?

YES. HE IS NOT GOVERNING TO

GOVERN. HE IS GOVERNING TO

SPLIT THE REPUBLICANS ON THE

ROCKS. TOO OFTEN THE

REPUBLICANS ASSIST HIM IN

STEERING IN THAT DIRECTION BUT

RIGHT NOW WHETHER THE OBJECTIVE

IS IMMIGRATION OR THE TAX

INCREASES IS FOR THE REPUBLICAN

PARTY TO FIGHT AMONGST

THEMSELVES AND HAVE DIVISION IN

CREATING ENOUGH MOIL IN THE

PARTY AND LOSE CONTROL OF THE

HOUSE.

INTERESTING PERSPECTIVE.

THANKS FOR JOINING US.

THANK YOU. I APPRECIATE IT.

GAS PRICES ARE AT A FOUR

MONTH HIGH AFTER 32 STRAIGHT

DAYS. THE AVERAGE FOR A GALLON

OF GAS IS NOW $3.72.

IF YOU HAVE FILLED UP YOUR

CAR LATELY YOU NOTICED THAT THE

PRICE KEEPS GOING UP.

IT JUMPS ALMOST EVERY TWO

DAYS IT SEEMS LIKE.

I'M AT 64. IT USUALLY TAKES

ME 50 BUCKS TO BILL UP.

EXPERTS SAY THE END IS NOT

IN

SIGHT YET.

IT WILL BE AT LEAST A COUPLE

MORE MONTHS BEFORE IT'S

NORMAL.

THEY BLAME IT ON A COUPLE OF

THINGS AND REFINERIES CLOSING

AND THE INCREASE FOR DEMANDS OF

GAS. ANOTHER REASON CRUDE OIL

PRICES ARE UP. CANADA'S

AMBASSADOR TO THE U.S. POINTED

OUT THEY HAVE A SURPLUS OF OIL

AND IF WE APPROVE THE KEYSTONE

PIPELINE IT WILL HAVE THE

DEMAND

.

HE'S A LOGICAL RATIONAL

PERSON. I BELIEVE HAVING ALL

OF

THESE OIL SOURCES ON A PIPELINE

INSTEAD OF TRUCKS AND TRAINS TO

THE GULF COURSE IS LOGICAL.

THE ADMINISTRATION IS

SUPPOSED TO REACH A DECISION ON

THE PIPELINE BY SPRING. IN THE

MEANTIME EXPERTS SAY FUEL

PRICES

WILL RISE ANOTHER 40 TO 60

CENTS

BUT THERE ARE THINGS YOU CAN DO

TO INCREASE YOUR CAR'S MILEAGE.

OBEY THE SPEED LIMIT, MAKE SURE

YOUR GAS CAP IS ON TIGHT AND

CLEAR OUT YOUR TRUNK.

PRICE TRACKER PREDICTS THE

AVERAGE PRICE WILL BE NEAR $4 A

GALLON NEAR APRIL.

A NEW INVESTIGATION SAYS

CHINA'S MILITARY IS BEHIND A

MASSIVE HACKING CAMPAIGN

AGAINST

U.S. TARGET S. THE REPORT WAS

DONE BY A SECURITY COMPANY

CALLED MANDIAN. THEY HAVE

TRACED CYBER ATTACKS TO A UNIT

OF CHINA'S' MILITARY IN CHANG

HIGH AND FOCUSED ON CONTRACTORS

WITH ENERGY GRIDS. THEY SAID

THE HACKERS HAVE SYSTEMATICALLY

STOLEN TERRA BITES OF DATA.

THE NEWTOWN SHOOTING IS A

BEFORE THE SOURCE OF RALLYING

CRIES AND THE STATE HOUSE

NARROWLY PASSED FOUR BILLS.

ONE

LIMITS AMMUNITION TO 15 FOR

RIFLES AND EIGHT TO GUNS AND

ANOTHER MEASURE ONLINE AND

ANOTHER BANS FIREARMS AT

STADIUMS AND OTHER PLACES. ONE

LAWMAKER SAID SHE DID NOT

APPRECIATE EAST COAST

POLITICIANS INFLUENCING

COLORADO

LEGISLATORS.

DESPITE STRICTER GUN

LEGISLATION NOW LAW ENFORCEMENT

OFFICIALS SAY VIOLENT MURDER

GAMES AND TOP THE COUNT OF A

ASSORT SERIAL MURDER PLAYED

INTO

THIS MURDERS. ADAM LANZA

WANTED

SURPASS THE BODY COUNT OF

NORWEGIAN KILLER IN 2001.

LANZA

CHOOSE SANDY HOOK BECAUSE IT

WAS

THE EASIEST TARGET WITH THE

LARGEST CLUSTER OF PEOPLE AND

SHOWS SHE WAS PROBABLY LIVING

OUT A AND IFACY BASED ON THE

VIDEO GAMES IN HIS HOME. THEY

FOUND GAMES IN A BLACKED OUT

ROOM IN HIS BASEMENT WHERE HE

SPENT HOURS PLAYING THEM ALONE.

MELISSA HENCA IS DIRECTOR

FOR

THE PARENTS TELEVISION COUNCIL

AND JOINS US NOW BY SCAPE.

MELISSA LAW ENFORCEMENT

OFFICIALS SAY VIDEO GAMES WERE

A

REASON FOR THIS AND IS IT YOUR

OPINION THAT VIRTUAL VIOLENCE

CAN LEAD TO THE REAL THING?

THERE IS

CERTAINLY IS A LINK AND VIOLENT

MEDIA CONTENT TO AGREES IN

CHILDREN. MORE RECENTLY WE

HAVE

NOT ONLY PSYCHOLOGICAL BUT

MEDICAL STUDIES THAT EXAMINES

WHAT HAPPENS TO THE CHILD'S

BRAIN WHEN PLAYING VIOLENT

VIDEO

GAMES AND IT REPRESSES THE

AREAS

RESPONSIBLE FOR JUDGMENT,

RESPONSIBILITY AND EXCITES THE

AREAS OF THE BRAIN THAT ARE

INVOLVED IN THE FIGHT OR FLIGHT

IMPULSE SO IT'S REALLY NOT

SURPRISING THAT A CHILD WHO IS

CONSTANTLY EXPOSED TO MEDIA

VIOLENCE AND PLAYING VIOLENT

VIDEO GAMES HAVE AGGRESSIVE

TENDENCYS.

LAW OFFICIALS SAID THEY

FOUND

GAMES IN A BLACKED OUT ROOM IN

HIS BASEMENT WHERE HE SPENT

HOURS PLAYING THEM ALONE. I

THINK A KEY WORD HERE IS

"ALONE"

. WHAT IS THE ROLE OF PARENTS

FOR MONITORING WHAT GAMES THEIR

KIDS PLAY.

CERTAINLY MONITORING THE

VIDEO GAMES -- THE WAY THEY'RE

MADE THESE DAYS IT'S NOT LIKE

WATCHING YOUR CHILD PLAY PACK

MAN FOR MINUTES. SOMETIMES IT

TAKES DAYS AND DAYS TO GET

THROUGH SO IT'S IMPORTANT TO DO

THE RESEARCH. FIND OUT WHAT

THE

GAME IS ABOUT. FIND OUT WHAT

CONTENT TO EXEXPECT. THERE ARE

A LOT OF RESOURCES OUT THERE TO

GET INFORMATION ABOUT THE VIDEO

GAMES AND FIND OUT WHAT IT'S

LIKE. WATCH WITH YOUR CHILD,

PLAY WITH YOUR CHILD IF YOU

CAN.

YOU MIGHT NOT HAVE DAYS TO

DEVOTE TO IT BUT TO GET A SENSE

OF WHAT IS GOING ON, AND SET

APPROPRIATE ROLES IN YOUR HOME

AND IF THEY GO TO ANOTHER

CHILD'S HOUSE FIND OUT THEIR

RULES ARE WITH RESPECT TO MEDIA

CONTENT.

WHAT ARE OTHER STEPS PARENTS

CAN TAKE TO PROJECT THEIR KIDS

AND TEENS?

I THINK PARENTS NEED TO LIMIT

KID'S EXPOSE TOWER THIS KIND OF

MEDIA. WE RECOMMEND GETTING

THE

GAME COUNSELLULES AND THE

TELEVISION SETS AND THE

ENTERTAINMENT CENTERS OUT OF

THE

KID'S ROOM.

OKAY. THANKS FOR JOINING US

TODAY AND SHARING THIS

IMPORTANT

INFORMATION.

ABSOLUTELY. THANK YOU.

COMING UP SYRIAN REFUGEES

TAKE SHELTER IN JORDAN AND FIND

COMPASSION FROM A CHRISTIAN

MINISTRY.

ISRAEL'S PRIME

MINISTER SAYS NORTH COREE'S

LATEST NUCLEAR TEST SAYS

SANCTIONS ARE NOT ENOUGH TO

STOP THE PROGRAM. THE PRIME

MINISTER MADE THE STATEMENT TO

A

GATHERING OF JEWISH LEADERS AND

SAID IRAN WILL BE AT THE TOP OF

HIS AGENDA WHEN PRESIDENT OBAMA

VISITS ISRAEL.

HAVE TOUGH SANCTIONS STOPPED

NORTH KOREA? NO. AND THE FACT

THEY PRODUCE A NUCLEAR EXPLOSION

REVERBERATES EVERYWHERE IN THE

MIDDLE EAST AND ESPECIALLY

IRAN. SANCTIONS

WILL NOT STOP THE PROGRAM.

THEY

HAVE TO BE COUPLED WITH A

CREDIBLE MILITARY THREAT.

THE PRESIDENT IS SAID TO

VISIT ISRAEL NEXT MONTH.

WHAT'S IT LIKE TO LEAVE HOME

AND WALKS FOR MANY MILES AND

END

UP IN A FOREIGN LAND? FOR

YEARS

THOUSANDS OF SYRIANS HAVE FACED

THAT CHALLENGE. MANY ARE

MAKING

IT WORK WITH THE HELP OF

CHRISTIANS.

O SAMA IS ONE OF THOUSANDS

OF

REF -- REFUGEES.

THIS SITUATION IS VERY

SERIOUS. THE PRESIDENT

DESTROYED THE CITY AND MOST

HAVE

NO WORK, NO FOOD, NO

ELECTRICITY. THEY ARE IN A BAD

SITUATION NOW.

ACCORDING TO THE UN THESE

REFUGEES ARE SPREAD ACROSS

TURKEY, LEBANON AND JORDAN.

NOW

SOME OF THE REFUGEES AND THEIR

CHILDREN ARE FINDING RELIEF.

SOME CHURCHES IN JORDAN ARE

TRYING TO HELP WITH THE TRAGEDY

AND MANY ARE EXPERIENCING THE

LOVE OF CHRISTIANS OF THE FIRST

TIME.

THEY'RE DEALING WITH US LIKE

HUMANS.

IT'S DANGEROUS WORK SO WE

HID

HIS IDENTITY FOR SECURITY

REASONS.

TAKE THIS TOWNT TO SHOW THE

LIGHT INSIDE THE DARKNESS.

PEOPLE GO OUTSIDE OF SYRIA

THEY'RE HOPELESS AND BEFORE

THEY

DIDN'T HAVE A CHANCE TO LISTEN

TO THE GOSPEL ABOUT JESUS, BUT

RIGHT NOW WE HAVE A CHANCE TO

SHOW THEM THE LOVE AND OUR

FAITH

THROUGH WHAT WE DO FOR THEM.

THEIR HELPED WHICHS HOT

MEALS, CHURCH SERVICES FOR THE

CHILDREN, AND CLOTHES FOR

FAMILIES WHO OFTEN HAVE NOTHING

THAN WHAT IS ON THEIR BACKS.

SOME OF THESE CHILDREN WENT

FROM

CONDITIONS LIKE THIS TO THIS,

AND THERE ARE OPPORTUNITIES TO

TALK TO SOMEONE ABOUT THEIR

SITUATION. MANY OF THESE

MUSLIM

WOMEN, SOME NOW WIDOWED, WOULD

NOT HAVE STEPPED INSIDE A

CHURCH

IN SYRIA.

THEY HAVE NOT TALKED TO

SOMEONE ABOUT JESUS BUT HERE

THEY ARE IN NEED AND WE DON'T

WANT TO SAY WE ARE USING THEIR

NEED BUT WHILE WE ARE FEEDING

THEM AND TAKING CARE OF THEM

THERE IS THE OPPORTUNITY TO

SHARE THE LOVE OF GOD WHICH IS

MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE FOOD

AND

THINGS SO WE ARE CARING ABOUT

THEIR SOULS AS WE CARE ABOUT

THEIR BODY.

IT'S THE MINISTRY WHAT HE

APPRECIATES.

WE NEED IT. IT'S GOOD FOR

US

RIGHT NOW BECAUSE WE DIDN'T

HAVE

ANY WORK. WE NEED ALL THE HELP

WE CAN GET. IT MAKES A

DIFFERENCE RIGHT NOW.

CHRIS MITCHELL CBN NEWS

JORDAN.

UP NEXT HEROES OF THE CIVIL

WAR THAT YOU NEVER HEARD ABOUT.

LEARN ABOUT THE MEN AND DOCTORS

FINALLY GETTING THEIR DUE.

THIS YEAR MARKS THE 150TH

ANNIVERSARY OF THE EMANCIPATION

PROCLAMATION.

SLAVERY FREED THE BLACK MEN

BUT MANY JOINED THE ARMY

INCLUDING DOCTORS. WE WENT IN

SEARCH OF THEIR STORIES.

TWO STORIES ARE WITH THIS

DOCTOR, MEDICAL AND HISTORY.

MEDICAL HISTORY IS OF A

PARTICULAR INTEREST, ESPECIALLY

CONTRIBUTIONS OF

AFRICAN-AMERICANS. IN HIS

RESEARCH HE FOUND THAT A

HANDFUL

OF BLACK MEN SERVED AS DOCTORS

IN THE CIVIL WAR SOMETHING HE

WRITES ABOUT IN PROLOGUE TO

CHANGE. WHEN PRESIDENT LINCOLN

FREED THE SLAVES NEARLY 200,000

BLACKS JOINED THE ARMY.

OF THE PHYSICIANS WE

JUSTIFIED THREE WERE OFFICERS

AND NINE WERE CONTRACT

SURGEONS.

MOSTLY IT WAS TAKING CARE OF

DISEASE ANYWAY. THEY WOULD DO

EXAMINATIONS, TAKE CARE OF THE

PEOPLE.

DR. AUGUSTA WAS A VETERAN OF

THE CIVIL WAR AND A

COMMISSIONED

OFFICER IN THE ARMY. HE'S ALSO

THE FIRST BLACK OFFICER TO ARE

BURIED HERE INARLING TON.

HE LEARNED TO READ EVEN

THOUGH IT WAS ILLEGAL AND

DANGEROUS. HIS DREAM OF

BECOMING A DOCTOR SEEMED ALMOST

IMPOSSIBLE. THE UNIVERSITY OF

PENNSYLVANIA DENIED HIS

APPLICATION TO MEDICAL SCHOOL.

AUGUSTA WOULD NOT GIVE UP AND

WENT TO CANADA AND ENROLLED IN

COLLEGE AND IN SIX YEARS HE

RECEIVED A DEGREE IN MEDICINE.

IT'S HARD FOR ME TO IMAGINE

THE CHALLENGES THEY FACED AND

IT

HAD BE MAGNITUDE HARDER FROM

WHAT WE HAVE GONE THROUGH.

MICHELLE RADEAN IS A

PHYSICIAN. SHE SAYS THE HARD

SHIPS OF THOSE BEFORE HER ARE

AN

EXAMPLE TO HER AND OTHER BLACKS.

ON TOP OF IT BEING A VERY

DIFFICULT AND CHALLENGING

SUBJECT MATTER TO HAVE TO

UNDERSTAND, BUT TO DO THAT IN

AN

ATMOSPHERE WHERE YOU WERE

CONSIDERED LESS THAN, WHERE YOU

WERE CONSIDERED TO BE SECOND

RATE, OR SECOND TIER, WHERE YOU

DIDN'T HAVE ALL OF THE

RESOURCES

THAT YOU NEED IN ORDER TO

SUCCEED, AND THEN TO BE ABLE TO

ACHIEVE ANYWAY.

IN 1862 AFTER RETURNING TO

THE U.S. AUGUSTA WROTE A DIRECT

APPEAL TO PRESIDENT LINCOLN

OFFERING HIS SERVICES AS A

SURGEON IN THE ARMY. AFTER

MANY

ROADBLOCKS HE GAINED A

COMMISSION IN THE ARMY. TIME

IN

THE ARMY WAS DIFFICULT BOTH ON

AND OFF THE BATTLEFIELD. MOST

SURGEONS IN THE WAR WORKED IN

MEDICAL HOSPITALS OR RECRUITING

STATIONS BECAUSE WHITE

PHYSICIANS REFUSED TO SERVE

NEAR

THEM OR UNDER THEIR COMMAND IN

THE BATTLEFIELD.

HE HAD TWO REGISTERED

ASSISTANTS WITH HIM AND THEY

WERE WHITE AND THEY REBELLED

OBVIOUSLY. THE SENIOR

ASSISTANT

SURGEON SAID IT'S NOT RIGHT

THERE ARE NO OTHER WHITE MAN

WORKING FOR A BLACK MAN AND I

SHOULDN'T HAVE TO DO IT EITHER.

DR. JOHN DEGROSS OF

MASSACHUSETTS WAS ONE

EXCEPTION.

HE AND OTHER BLACK DOCTORS IN

THE CIVIL WAR WERE OF MIXED

RACE

AND COULD EASILY PASS AS

WHIETD.

AFTER VOLUNTEERING HE RECEIVED

A

COMMISSION AS ASSISTANT SURGEON

WITH THE 35TH UNITED COLORED

INFANTRY, ONE OF THREE

AFRICAN-AMERICAN PHYSICIANS TO

DO SO. HE WAS THE ONLY BLACK

SURGEON TO SERVE IN THE FIELD

WITH THE SOUTH CAROLINA REGIMEN

AND ONE OF EIGHT TO BE IN THE

MEDICAL CORP. UNFORTUNATELY

LITTLE IS WRITTEN IN THE

HISTORY

BOOKS ABOUT THESE

AFRICAN-AMERICAN PHYSICIANS AND

THEIR SERVICE TO OUR COUNTRY.

THE POWERS AT BE DECIDED

THAT

THE ACCEPTABLE PHYSICIANS WERE

WHITE MEN SO A LOT OF THE

INFORMATION ON A LOT OF THESE

PEOPLE, THE AFRICAN-AMERICANS

AS

WELL AS THE EARLY WOMEN

PHYSICIANS IS JUST -- PEOPLE

CHOSE NOT TO RECORD IT.

AFTER THE WAR DR. AUGUSTA

WENT ON TO SERVE ON THE STAFF

AT

HOWARD UNIVERSITY. AND FOR AS

FAR AS DR. DEGROSS HE WAS GIVEN

A SERVICE AWARD. SLAW SON IS

DOING WHAT HE CAN TO TELL THE

STORIES OF THE PHYSICIANS EACH

WHO DESERVE A PLACE IN HISTORY

AS FORERUNNERS OF THE MODERN

WORLD.

I THOUGHT THEY WERE HEROS.

THEY KNEW WHAT THEY WANTED AND

WENT AFTER IT AND WANTED TO

SERVE IN THE BEST WAY THEY

COULD

AND THEY WERE TRAINED AS

PHYSICIANS AND THAT WAS THE

BEST

SERVICE THEY COULD GIVE. I

DON'T SEE A DIFFERENCE.
