Season 2012 Episode 1220

Tonight on the program, we have President Obama's full speech from Afghanistan, plus analysis. Also: people and banks weary of credit and debt, a rise in painkiller-addicted newborns, 'liquid bandages' as a future of skin repair, and a history of the United States' lack of criticism of China's human rights problems.
