Inside Karl Rove’s Secretive
Effort to Defeat Obama’s Re-Election
With Help of Billionaire Donors

Karl Rove, the man once known as "Bush’s Brain," has helped found two groups that plan to raise hundreds of millions of dollars for television, radio and online attacks ads to defeat President Obama and restore Republican control of Washington this November.

The groups—American Crossroads, whose donors are public, and Crossroads GPS, a so-called "social welfare" organization whose donors are anonymous—operate out of the same offices, share many of the same staff, and pay millions to air similar attack ads.

"Glock" Aurora Massacre
Latest Tragedy to Show Failures
of U.S. Gun Laws

Police in Colorado have revealed Aurora shooting suspect James Holmes detailed his planned massacre more than a week before the attack occurred. An unopened package sent by Holmes and recovered at a University of Colorado mailroom contained illustrations and notes about killing a large number of people. Among the weapons seized from Holmes were two .40 caliber pistols, a Glock G22 and a Glock G23; a Smith & Wesson M&P .223 caliber semiautomatic rifle; and a Remington 870 Express Tactical 12-gauge shotgun. We speak to Paul Barrett, author of the book, "Glock: The Rise of America’s Gun."
