Marcus Mabry, international business editor of The New York Times, and Nick Childs, political correspondent for the BBC, help us take a look at what’s coming up in the news this week. We talk about the president’s decisions on Afghanistan; the ongoing health care debate; and President Obama’s promise to the gay and lesbian community.
