GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: Let me turn to health care. Your opposition to ObamaCare has been no secret. But I understand now that the issue has also become personal for you. Is it true that you've actually had trouble signing up for ObamaCare... SEN. RAND PAUL (R-KY): I have. STEPHANOPOULOS: -- and that you're not even sure your family is cove

CHRIS WALLACE: de Blasio's big campaign promise is that he wants to raise taxes on high earners, and there are certainly some in New York to pay for added benefits, especially universal preschool. George, you see this as an aberration, as a one off because it's New York City or as a sign that there is something going on in terms of resurgence of li

DAVID GREGORY: Chuck Todd. A year of action, President Obama said 2014 would be. So how does he take his presidency back? CHUCK TODD: Well, he's going to have to start with making sure healthcare works. You know, it's interesting, I was talking with some administration officials over the weekend and I said what's your January going to look like

GOV. SCOTT WALKER (R-Wis.): One of the things that I said after the budget compromise is that the people who didn't like it, who didn't think it was good enough, the answer is not to take it out on House Republicans or in primaries; the answer is to go to Kentucky, excuse me, it's to go to Louisiana or go to Arkansas or go to North Carolina and Ala

JOHN McLAUGHLIN: Is the era of pot prohibition coming to an end? Or are Colorado and Washington on a collision course with the federal government? Pat Buchanan. PAT BUCHANAN: I think it is, to a degree, coming to an end. Which means there will be more potheads and more high-school dropouts and more automobile accidents involving marijuana, John.

BOB SCHIEFFER: Let me just ask you this, Senator: I think most people would say that last-- the last meeting of Congress was probably the least productive, maybe in history. It's certainly the least productive that I can remember. What you seem to be saying to me is, listen, we are in for the absolute same thing, nothing much is going to change her

REP. PETER KING (R-NY): It infuriates me that people like Rand Paul are putting American lives at risk. If we listened to Rand Paul and followed his policies, Americans could die because the NSA has stopped attacks against the United States, right here in New York. The [Najibullah] Zazi attempted subway attack in 2009 with liquid explosives was sto

CHRIS WALLACE: Finally, sir, you send out a wonderful Christmas card each year -- we just put it up on the screen -- with your beautiful family. I'm fortunate enough to get the Christmas card, to be on your list. This year you had a new member on your lap, your grandson Kieran, an African-American baby adopted by your son Ben. For some reason,

REP. TREY GOWDY (R-SC): I don’t know. I’ve got more questions than i do answers having read that article, that exhaustive article, Judge, including how many attackers were there? Of the universe of attackers, of that number, how many did you talk to? How many cited the video as the impetus behind the attack and what did you do to cross-examine

A Meet the Press roundtable discusses U.S. foreign policy, the legalization of marijuana in Colorado, Bill de Blasio's first week as mayor, and 2014's top political stories.

Cokie Roberts, Bill Kristol, Ana Navarro, Brian Schweitzer, and Ben Smith on "This Week."

Dylan Byers, Sally Kohn and Callie Crossley discuss Melissa Harris-Perry's apology with "Reliable Sources" host Brian Stelter.

FMR. GOV. BRIAN SCHWEITZER (D-MT): Well, the Europeans are right. We have had 12 years of war. For the last 11 years, you can't find anybody left in America who can tell you, why are we still in Afghanistan? Al Qaeda attacked us. They're not in Afghanistan. We're fighting somebody called the Taliban. They live in caves in the Stone Age. Why are

DAVID GREGORY: The other issue of course with Russia has to do with Edward Snowden. I ask you again to put back on the intelligence hat as former head of Homeland Security and ask you how much damage has been done to the U.S. intelligence by him, do you think? JANET NAPOLITANO: Oh, I think Snowden has exacted quite a bit of damage and did it in

STEPHANOPOULOS: This issue of clemency for Edward Snowden also back in the news this week. The New York Times weighed in. They said that it should be considering. Here's what they wrote, "considering the enormous value of the information he has revealed and the abuses he has exposed, Mr. Snowden deserves better than a life of permanent exile, fear
