daughter, they times to believe in god. -- they asked her if she believed in god. i have to do to believe in god is to look at my father. curtis was not so overtly religious. and bob dylan's case, the christian songs i loved. his first record was "slow train coming." acoustic guitars, just the same. it was awful. my brother put this on and in my heart, i always wanted to make some music. there is a link between music and spirituality. i was relieved when i heard that. somebody could make religious music cool. god needs to get rescued from religious music. imagine that you had to sit in that club all night listening to the worst music. stuck in it for eternity. tavis: i think i know what you meant by that. d.c. that? there you go. "my god rocks." i just saw the cover of the l.a. times. it was a huge story about you. do you see that? there you go. you are not a religious maniac. >> you can tell an average man -- irish man, but you cannot tell him much. i believe that god and religion are two different things. i do think god needs to be rescued from religion. when peo

i believe in lower rates. i believe in simplification. when it comes to the corporate tax, corporate taxes as of april will be the highest in the world. i cut that corporate tax in our plan to 17.5%, make it basically a net profits tax. simple, a flat tax with one exception, i still believe we need to encourage innovations in the knowledge-based economy so we have a 20% permanent tax credit for research and development in the corporate tax. secondly, dividends, interests, capital gains, a 20% cut from 15% to 12%. we abolish the amt. abolish the death tax. i take the corporate tax, again, simplification, lower rates. we have a 10% lower rate and we expand that lower rate and take all the other rates, consolidate it to one rate. 28% top rate. a 20% reduction from the 35% rate down to 28% which was ronald reagan's top rate. my feeling is, if it's good enough for ronald reagan, it's good enough for me. so we have a top rate of 28% and we have a simplified tax code, a simplified tax code which i'll discuss in a minute which is not completely f

i believe we have to live together. hamas, the israelis, the iranians, everybody have to live in that region for long me coming. there is a problem. part of the problem because -- part of the problem also from the israeli side, if hamas also there is some grps that they ve to wipe the palestinians out. i will judge hama from their acts. when they say they will accept the land of 67, what it means, who is on the other side. noisrael so that means they don't want to wipe them out they want a border which is recognized by the security council and the united nations. yet now the israelis doesn't move after that. from madrid negotiations optimism go up and down up and down. and everybody knows what is the end game. what is the duty, what is the duty of the israeli to give the land of 67. but if we are going as i always say they want to make a discounted on it and they want to take peace from here and peace from here, no one could sign. even if you or me and the palestinian side, we cannot find because it's not belong to us,

i don't believe so. i believe sanctions have to be tightened and right now the united states successfully was able to get europe on board. >> rose: on the oil embargo. >> yes. which is very important, because this is going to strangle iran economically. i think it should be given time and i think that the let of participation, he explicitly said that in his last interview, ba net at that, the threat should be there. so i think you have the carrot and the stick. but i think also you should engage with them in dialogue. >> rose: other people have said to me, most recently an interview i did last week with the pry prime minister of qatar he thought there ought to be direct relations, direct negotiations between iran and the united states. is that a good idea? >> i saw that interview and you should negotiate and bargain and discuss and then you should have the military option ready. remember, iran still remembers very vividly what happened to iraq, remember how the united states invaded and over threw saddam

but of course he said he didn't grow up that way, he didn't believe in that, he believed in jesus christ, i accept that. but i'm just saying the muslim world, muslim world, islam, they see him as a son of islam. >> richard wolffe what is he saying here? >> i think it's clear what he's saying. he made several errors in his assertions this morning. i don't quite understand why someone like him would follow the letter in the first place, that seemed weird but he claimed the president's great grandfather was muslim. it was his grandfather who converted to christianity and then to islam, so he was wrong in his facts but obviously what he's trying to suggest is this president is sympathetic to muslims, that he actual le endorses muslims killing christians, that is his assertion in the interview, this is shocking stuff. he's obviously saying the president's unamerican, not aligned with american culture and outrageous slur and wrong on the facts. >> jonathan, what do you make almost a coordinated political attack. we've seen rick santorum come out and question president obama's faith over the we

we don't believe that. we don't believe that we ought to let tax rates go up and create a tax hike on the small businesspeople of this country. because, number one that exacerbates the challenge that we are already dealing with in trying to get this economy growing, and number two, it will put more money into the hands of washington to begin to start spending that money without paying down the debt. 7 the gentleman knows very well -- the gentleman knows very well our commitment to make sure we get our fiscal house in order. he knows very well we believe we got to fix the problem and not go in and ask the small business men and women to pay more taxes to dig a hole deeper. we believe you ought to fix the problem, stop taking small business money away from the men and women who make it, and let them continue to put it back into their enterprises and create jobs. that's what we are trying to do. i look forward to the gentleman working with him to make sure we accomplish that end. mr. hoyer: i appreciate the ge

you don't believe the devil is coming to attack america. you can believe in a lot of stuff. i believe that all of -- that volvos exist. >> by the way, that is santorum's press people trying to cover up something that is crazy. >> aren't there other ways to scare voters not to vote for democrats other than using satan? >> paul, i honestly -- i made my feelings clear. i don't think you are being fare fare -- fair to him. i think he is saying these things because he honestly believes him. >> i think you are accusing him of something he is not doing and that is not right. >> i think it is both. >> he does believe that and that is a huge problem. he thinks the devil is coming because people like chris chris. >> he was right about that. >> i kind of tend to agree with that. >> the fact is satan represents evil and you believe evil exists. >> but satan -- i mean, come on. you can put all of the lipstick you want on this pick, but it is still a pick. a pig. >> satan comes in the form of a trans sexual pig? i -- >> i give up with you. lastly, banning booze. bill, you said there is ze

i mean, obviously they don't believe the same things that we believe as historic christians so they are different. i believe you can be a good, moral person and be a mormon, but you know, christianity, lawrence, is about trusting in christ for the forgiveness of your sins. when we say mb is not a christian, we're not saying they don't love their mother, the flag, or apple pie, but they don't embrace the tenet of christianity which is faith in jesus christ, alone. >> you're a baptist. how many different branches of the christian faith do you accept and recognize as christianity? >> look, nobody goes to heaven in a group, okay? we all go one at a time. i don't believe all baptists are going to heaven, all methodists are going to heaven. it's what we have done individually with jesus christ, whether we trusted in him as our savior. i don't believe, for example, lawrence, that the baptist church is the only church. i believe that there are christians in many different denominations. the key is, have they trusted in christ, alone? >> and i just want to refer you to a november pew poll that a

do you believe in traditional values then you're going to believe in absolutes. if you're a post modernist you'll be a situationeth tonight. you're going to believe in american exceptional. if not you're going to believe in internationalism. let people identify themselves around these issues. >> rose: my question is that he's using what kennedy said in a sense twisting what kennedy says. >> i think santorum is playing with fire here. i think he is probably doing it consciously presumably. but even if he's not, he's putting religion in politics which is a project that e.j., and that richard afternoon that a lot of folks have spent a lot of time trying to find a way to have a mature conversation about how religion is one factor among many in the republican, lower- case r, construct. how it should be a force like economics, geography and partisanship how it has to be a place in the public sphere. a lot of people have worked really hard to have that conversation. and we have, we as a country have come to the point where we have done that. i remember in 2008 you could

i believe i should set examples.should teach my children a certain way but i don't believe in the use of force whether economic or social. i don't want to force people into accepting my value. that is what is so miraculous about freedom is that i have become more tolerant. >> have you become more tolerant about this issue? >> because of the politics i have been more forced to talk about it. most of my growing up it was a nonissue. >> it wasn't so much a nonissue as most people have been opposed to it. >> in high school and college i don't remember having a single discussion or a classroom discussion or a political discussion ever. it has only been the last ten years or so. >> if you became president and asked directly, do you personally approve from a values perspective of gay marriage what would you say? >> i would say to each his own and i approve it because thatset the way they want to run their life and i respect their freedoms. that is why freedom works because it recognizes what other people do, if i don't reco

>> i believe that i'm enlightened.with a few followers, pace is clearing debris, getting ready for what he believes will be the gathering of the faithful. >> tom, do you think it's too windy? >> it will come at the end of time, he says, foreshadowed by the collapse of major governments around the world. perhaps, soon. >> these english-speaking protestant nations are going to be swallowed up by the one world government and it's all going to be central bank. do you understand what i'm saying? they're all going to be swallowed up by the one world order. >> and what will be here when that happens? >> god's kingdom. >> clive jones and shelia martin don't buy it, not pace's vision. >> one, two, three, four. >> they believe that david koresh, not charles pace, will lead the world through the final days. >> i feel even stronger as a result of what has happened. >> faithfully, patiently, they are waiting for the resurrection. david koresh, messiah.

believe in me.the internet does that. >> just because he wants it attract new fans, didn't mean he want to make it easy for them to figure out who steve really is. >> i think it's kind of -- it's the modern day gag. the modern day, you know, crank call. >> i got to pee. >> sir, step off the lawn more. >> hang on. >> i was hoping that they would think it was real. that was my intent. was to -- let's make this as believable as possible from top to bottom. >> and that dash cam does seem authentic. >> instantly you're like, okay, the guy must know a cop. >> bingo. the officer in the video none other than mark's brother-in-law. a real life cop in louisiana. >> he is so believable as the cop. especially because he's calm. you know. that's how cops are. >> you're not supposed to be riding a lawn mower on the highway. what are you doing? >> uh --- i'm just going to the store down here. i mean, my wife said if i didn't get her another beer, she was going to stab me in the face. >> well, first of all, there's

we believe -- we believe that every child is created equal, with that right to life.nd i asked you to stand up for those who cannot stand for themselves. if not us, then who? thank you. the president believes that we need to consolidate power, centralize power, big power in washington because you just can't be trusted to make decisions for yourself. not about your health insurance, not about your gas mileage. not even about your light bulbs. well, we believe it's time to return the power to the american people. that's where the constitution entrusted it and that's where it belongs again today, people. now, perhaps this distrust of us is because he seems to believe that america is actually a destructive force in the world. that we should apologize to enemies. he believes that we should share our missile defense technology with the kremlin. he believes we should make deep cuts in our military while other nations are building up their militaries. deep cuts to our troops while we keep on spending wildly on everything else. tax about priorities. now, today, the white house

that the situation cannot be resolved without the regime being involved and they believe that there has to be part of the solution the arab league believes the current regime should be torn down over the city in the same time they make no suggestions about how events should develop after that will replace the current regime believe me the armed insurgents who have been stepping up their efforts to topple the regime chester and he the efforts are supported by foreign states or both arms shipments and i believe financially look at youth and there will be a third party as we have learned for example of illusions are not. i mean people that start the. peaceful protests in syria but then there was quite a large scale demonstration in damascus on saturday have big goals but it happens quite often that the people's protest is taken over by others they would have very little interest in democracy or the protesters initial goals and it's just a couple of very strange outside pressure on syria's ruling regime is spearheaded by countries that in fact undemocratic at the moment when representat

that i just don't believe we would be in this situation right now. having had a career between the united states army and the marine corps. we are in the kind of discussions that we've had about the kind of dereliction of duty that has befallen arlington and dover. i know dover is not a part of this discussion today. but i simply don't believe we would be here today if we were dealing -- now, i understand there's a broader question. we're talking about retired military personnel. we're talking about dependents. we're talking about other things. but if there's anything that as a combat veteran that i believe must come out of these hearings, it is, again, that only uniformed u.s. military personnel handle the remains of those who have fallen in battle. and i would open it up if anybody would like to comment on that. thank you. mr. chairman, i yield back. >> thank you very much, mr. coffman. and you raise a really good point about the ucmj. we proceed to mr. runyan of new jersey. >> thank you, mr. chairman. and i somewhat agree with what my colleague, m

when asked if he believes in american exceptional is and, he said he believed in american exceptional is in the way that the greeks believed in greek exceptionally some. the president of the united states thinks that we are a bunch of homers that like america best because we are from here. the president does not understand that we like america because we were founded a great country. [applause] we need a president who has a track record and a mission to liberate the free enterprise system and the american spirit again. who wants to reduce the size of government and get it off your back. to cut $5 trillion and spend less money every single year than the year before. that is our plan. that is what we will do. [applause] and we will liberate this economy by reducing the burden and putting in a cash plan that is simpler, fairer, flatter. it makes it easy. i have to do my own taxes for my own good. i want a flatter tax. [applause] we can reinvigorate the private sector with a corporate tax. it is the highest it has been by april, the highest in the world. 35%. we need to make it a flat, a

i believe that space provides this. i believe difficult programs like mars would provide it. but unfortunately, we do not have the national leadership that we need. we do not have a united states congress that really recognizes the need for this country to continue to grow and invest in r an d. we don't have the national leaders capable of stepping up and taking a difficult position and articulating why we must do something. i'm not interested in something for gene kranz. i'm interesting in something for my children. i'm interested in something for my children's children, because we are in the only nation on the entire earth that is blessed with the types of freedom that we've had, that has the economic potential of a great nation composed of so many different ethnic groups and types of people that are capable of doing these types of things. so we must continue to force leadership to grow. and i was privileged and proud to be part of the years when leadership flourished in this mission control. there's not one flight director who ever left here who was not inspired to do some

i believe that it was his father . strangely enough i think it was his father's experiences in mexico during the mexican revolution where his father went off to make his fortune in the oil business. his father developed a particular world view, a particular political philosophy, came home and transmitted that the buckley and his eight siblings. >> a quick thing for keeping him in power after world war two, did he serve in world war two or was he in yale writing about god and yell? >> buckley did serve in the army. he did serve in the army, but not overseas. >> said he didn't see people blown up in more? >> he did not personally see people blown up in war. >> i want to complement to as a self identify liberal. a very fair job and william f. buckley. i want to ask you about the distinction you draw between perkiness and libertarianism. i, as someone that i would hardly say is on the right to will see this mainly as an objection to powerful government and libertarian, something that is very deeply suspicious of government

is warning i believe a against people saying the u.s. went bankrupt by going off the gold standard if you look at these series of charts from one nine hundred seventy to one thousand nine hundred to one thousand nine hundred to two thousand what you notice is that in fact in one nine hundred seventy the u.s. was already bankrupt and then they went off the gold standard if you look at the rest of the globe and all of these maps one zero had in fact the rest of the world was pretty solvent while the u.s. was going bankrupt but what happened once the u.s. and the rest of the world went off the gold standard the rest of the world became bankrupt hoped. because of the toxic derivatives that are floating in all the other banks around the world that are manufactured in the united states because the u.s. is of the gold standard and as you point out in the seventy's they were already bankrupt because of the vietnam war that they couldn't pay for and i noticed that the f.b.i. has issued a statement saying that unless america gets out of these wars

we believe in profits. we also believe that there should be honesty and transparency in our elections, and that is what the disclosed act is about. democracy requires accountability, accountability requires transparency, and transparency requires to disclose act. we are going to hold accountable every single republican who ran for office, promising to reform the system, and then when it comes time, standing up with their constituents for accountability, and instead it stands up for secrecy, and slash the nation's, we will hold them accountable for that. -- this one of the -- this will be one of the hallmark moments who believe in transparency and those who will continue to protect the powerful in order to advance their own special interests. we will hold them accountable. i cannot think of many of our colleagues who have been fighting as relentlessly as keith ellison to represent the interests of working families and the middle class, and i am pleased deal to him. >> whether you're talking about the occupie

i believe we need a president to get the economy going. if we have a strong economy, that means kids coming out of high school and college will have jobs waiting for them. [applause] it means if you are in the prime of your life and you need to move you can find a new job right away. it means that if you are in your retirement years, you know your savings are going to be growing because american enterprises are growing in their value. if we have a strong economy, we will provide for a military that is second to none in the world. because this economy is faltering, this president is saying, where can i cut? there is only one place he is willing to cut, that is our military. we have fewer ships in our navy at any time since 1917. we have fewer aircraft and older aircraft in our air force than any time since 1947. this president wants to cut our active-duty personnel by 50 to 100,000. we no longer have the capacity to engage it in two conflicts at once. we want a strong america to prevent war from occurring. no one would test america.

it is believed he may have been upset by the hearing? >> he had a hearing last week where he was ordered to do some tests and he was trying to get custody of the kids and was not able to get custody of the kids and judge determined they would continue to live with juzen's parents. this was a supervised visit which has happened before. the lady brought the kids here per court order. she called 911 and tried to get in. within minutes the house was on fire. this was done deliberately and intentionally and the plan was carried out very quickly. >> thank you very much. i want to go back now to kevin mccarthy. josh obwrsly troubled. his father, as well. are you hearing from neighbors or relatives in and around the scene? >> they are not hearing a lot from neighbors. josh powell kept to himself in this neighborhood. this is a home he moved to after he had to leave his father's house after he lost custody of his kids. he wasn't allowed to have the kids in his house. steven is under a suicide watch inside the pierce county jail. he blamed the pol
