government because according to f.a.a. regulations you're not allowed to fly drones for commercial purposes though is this regulation getting in the way of american innovation. getting in the way but this is more of a bigger problem see the regulations that the government has a regulate problem that it creates ultimately as a result of corn subsidies ok if you didn't have corn something would have always obese people to talk of those flown into their mouths all right that's we would need these crazy helicopters to actually feed. so this boils down to farmers and the farm lobby and subsidies that they have achieved that's right and taco bell is probably so subsidizing the government wants these drones because they know that in the future they want to maintain their market share has been a case how come the corporate power hasn't been able to over rule the f.a.a. restrictions and been able to get some leeway for their next big corporate venture because this is a small company this is a small innovation what the f.a.a. brough

their market share has been a case how come the corporate power hasn't been able to over rule the f.a.a. restrictions and been able to get some leeway for their next big corporate venture because this is a small company this is a small innovation what the f.a.a. brought this know that yes the f.a.a. a lot of muslims have a lot of why a commercial drone i think that this is a much better use of drones than the u.s. government's current use which is killing people were not what war with the u.s. using drones the bomb people. were in like. the middle east where they're using drones the bomb people talk your bombing people's mouths or making people obese and you're going to cause a deflationary wave in class. this is the order of the u.s. account at their own desire and will to meet your supposed to be able to choose and have liberty and individual freedom in capitalism you argue for that every day with all the talk of the room if i was very very committed to that bit more though if i were going to do leave it there thanks so much for tuning in and these are to go to our website and tune in

what the rule exactly is, the f.a.a. when all the new devices went out the f.a.a. not get enough test out and they said if you can prove it does not cause problem it is fine, the f.a.a. does not forbid it it is up to the individual airlines. >>guest: the other thing, it asked the airlines to test, test your ipad by flying a solo flight dedicating it to the ipad and the airlines are running out money, and they do not have peanuts anymore, and the last thing they want to do is test this. this is a sensible approach. >>shepard: it seems to be. there is not any evidence whatever, nothing, not a bit of evidence that the ipad or figure like it, or the kindle will make the plane come down. when is the last time you saw a plane crash because of it? now, phones and blackberrys, for now that is different. but what they are saying we will bring in all the interested parties. we cannot think of a reason not to allow it. >>guest: it is 2012 people need to communicate and, would, let people do it. >>shepard: they need to not tell us what to do unless they have a good reason. ran

but the f.a.a.t there might never have been a basis for what it ordered and it is thinking about allowing airlines to decide. you have a choice. some airlines will advertise. you can't talk on the phone but you can use your blackberry. >> could be a good way to steal customers. come on our airline, we'll let you text as much as you want. >> remember, those blackberries that also liberate, they're a tether. boss will want to know what are you doing right now? why are you in omaha? >> right. >> all right. judge andrew napolitano, always a pleasure. >> pleasure, guys. >> all right. and they're the best kept secrets on any presidential campaign until now. the secret service code names for rick santorum and mitt romney just revealed. >> and they're good, too. >> they're kind of silly. >> and then the president said he'd stand up for women attacked by the media. now, bristol palin says mr. president, where's my phone call? i'm waiting! ok, guys-- what's next ? chocolate lemonade ? susie's lemonade... the

remember the f.a.a. shutdown where the republicans in the house refused to accept a bill that passed the senate overwhelmingly, and when votes for the f.a.a. instead, they chose to leave town, putting out of work 70,000 construction workers and laid off 4,000 others in the f.a.a. we don't have to play this sort of infrastructure chicken. later today we are going to consider the worst budget for transportation in anybody's memory. the republican budget that will be decided later today calls for a 46% reduction in transportation funding. there isn't enough money in the republican budget to even pay for the areas that are already obligated. i developed this in a friendly way in the budget committee and i do agree, there are 6.5 billion more in actual outlay contracts, roads, bridges, transit projects that we are committed to than they would pay for. . it's sad that we reached this point. i hope the house rejects this rule that would allow mr. bishop to present the senate bill for an up or down vote. the rep

forma session, in august of 2011, similarly, the senate by unanimous consent, once again, passed an f.a.a. bill which allowed it to continue operating. both of those were deemed to be emergencies. they had to be passed. that were insisted upon by president obama and they were passed. the conceded purpose of the pro forma sessions that we've -- that have occurred in the last six months was to prevent the president from making such appointments. had he made the appointments in question during the intersession, that is between december 17th and january 3rd before the beginning of the second session of this congress, the appointees would have held office for a year. that is until the end of the next session of the congress. but by weighting until the intra-session period began, the appointees can now hold, unless a court rules otherwise, that they can hold office for almost two years. so the choice there of doing these recess appointments during a more plausible inter-session period were done for political purposes. and in an intra-session, which raises greater problems. >>> however, what mak

about domestic drone use all the time because it's coming soon they just the president signed this new f.a.a. bill and so i think that by two thousand and thirteen they have to have all of the new regulations in place. so it looks like taco drones are going to be coming your way one played out in talk o. copter is a startup company which has a business model where you order your talk on your smartphone and also have beem in your g.p.s. location information and basically you will get your talk was delivered to you lying little mini robot they can't do it yet there's a big governments in their way because there aren't you know the rules for commercial use of drones yes but i can't help but feel like this is like a joint effort by all government entities to show the softer side of drones like oh you're against drones but if they were you talk about this is that going to change your mind and we're going to leave through that illegal immigrants while they're doing it and double down there's got to be a way to go there usually secure so they should only the immigrants they steal the immigrants tac

i well the question and of itself may sound a little funny like the alexander saying if the f.a.a. does not have the ability to do that within the united states why do we believe well joining me to discuss if even webster senior editor of raw story thanks so much for joining us tonight steve and i guess before we talk about this hearing necessarily it was said let's go back to the original story in the bamford row and you know what was your biggest takeaway some of the things that you found i guess most troubling about what they're planning on doing with this just gigantic massive n.s.a. complex that they're building well obviously to me what's most troubling is that we have to rely on whistleblowers insiders speaking to intelligence reporters who spend their own careers covering this agency in order to find out what our government is doing in numerous lawsuits or yours on privacy and civil rights advocates have really turned out not much because the government is consistent even to clinton state secrets as you since this battle secrecy is disturbing to me and lots of others so in

they have had a great safety record and the f.a.a. and the carriers work hard each day getting that. is there more we can do? there is the issue of the regional carriers where there is a concern whether they have the resources and the economic model to keep up with the safety demands required. and the issue is, are we going to make the investment in the next generation, make it consistently in the next generation of air traffic control so we can fly the planes to their ability and is the airways become safer as more planes use the airways. >>shepard: appreciate your time. and now, faith jenkins and criminal defense attorney randy zelin. randy and i were talking during the segment, colgan air in buffalo had nothing to do with training they were exhausted, mying and sleeping on a couch. that is what it is. >>randy: an example of the disconnect between regulators and reality. it had nothing to do with a lack of training. the only thing they needed was more sleep. so what we're talking about is the inability of the government to recognize

the f.a.a. regulations are simple. >>shepard: that was a lot of dumb. >>guest: it was.his is in the first or last time an airline will be caught if this. there have been similar incidents before about what people have been wearing, whether that was offensive, it is crazy. and they just don't learn. in this case, i am surprised, jetblue is savvy about p.r. and this case they could have solved this problem by locking like -- looking like a hero. >>shepard: they have good onboard snacks and a free cocktail every now and then. >>arthur: i don't know about that it must be the long flights. >>jonathan: that is what they should have given the baby. >>shepard: and pop in a xanax. no, not really. don't do that. don't do that. a woman in new mexico took her cat on a hike. wait a minute ... i will stop right here. a woman in new mexico took her cat ton a hike. anybody? >>arthur: on a leash? >>shepard: i will read the >>shepard: i will read the words when we get back. you know, because you been, you know, this is what you had been doing. you know, working, working, working, working

pouring over his medical background, they're seeing if, for instance, within the last six months, the f.a.a. has approved the use of some anti-depressants for the first time. i'm he sure they're going to look to see, was this pilot taking a medication that was approved? was he taking one that wasn't approved? was there anything in his medical that would have indicated that this was going to be a problem? you know, pilots over the age of 40 have to be checked twice a year by flight surgeons. so, the system will be examined. >> all right. >> but i think given the rarity of events, boy, it's working pretty well. >> and i would have to agree with you. thanks for joining us and shedding light on that and making the public feel more safe about flying the friendly skies, thank you. >> thank you. >> looking for a set of wheels? the south korean car marker-- or maker, kia, they have the great commercials, but resigning the 2012 rio, a sub compact that has an attractive price, but serious controls, and we put gary gastelu in it for a test drive. >> look at 2012 key ha reheo, you may remember the old

most popular bill, the transportation bill, an they will hope we're not on the road to the 30-plus f.a.a. extensions that we had before. you know it won't do to say, like two kids you did it too, we did it, you can do it, therefore we can do it. none of us should have done it. but in any case we know we don't have to do it this time. the senate has passed a bill that we could pass as well. so we know the compromise can happen because they passed a bill with more than 2/3 of their own house, including many republicans signing on, compromise is possible. if you believe in compromise. and i'm afraid this bill shows that we have a majority that does not. they are on record saying that they must have 218 votes from their caucus alone. that will say to the american people if we need to pass a bill that will have only people from our party voting for it, while the senate has passed a bill with both parties compromising, which is the party that does not believe in compromise? you always have to compromise. there's not a lot of difference in the amount of money in these bills. $52 billion per yea

level of safety and security that the american people demand and require, so therefore, we have the f.a.a. and the mtsb that comes in and makes sure we're getting that much further to have the safest airlines in the country. that's what this is all about in providing better, more robust cyber security, protecting infrastructure, our electric grid, our banking system and telecommunications system among others. >> congressman langevin, if you would, talk about current legislative action or proposals in the house and where you stand on them. >> sure. well, there are a couple major bills that i'm supporting, one of which is the rogers rupersberger bill. i sit on the intelligence committee. chairman rogers and myself and several others have co-sponsored and supported legislation to provide for more robust information sharing as i described between the government and the private sector sharing classified information or threat information back and forth. that bill has passed almost unanimously out of the house intelligence committee. i was proud to vote for it. i'm hopeful that bill will be comi

study and taking a way things that the middle class needs, a functional food and drug administration, f.a.a., cuts to national science. it is really bad for the middle class. americans know that a budget is more than line items on a spreadsheet. and the question is this, this budget believes in ausetert and leads to prosperity. no evidence of that. this budget believes tax cuts to the wealthy will create jobs. no evidence. our budget, we believe something very simple. we are all better off when we are all better off and that requires a budget that reflects what has always made america great, investment in the middle class that is strong and enduring. our hope in passing any budget has to be that the middle class will be strengthened and parents will have confidence that their kids will be better off than they were. i yield back. the chair: the gentleman yields back the balance of his time. the gentleman from wisconsin is recognized. mr. ryan: i have the right to close. the speaker pro tempore: the chair: the gentleman from wisconsin reserves his time. the gentleman from maryland is recogniz

they just did it with the f.a.a. not more than a few months ago. this is the crisis congress where they will not make long-term decisions because they're playing politics. i believe that the republicans have put election, defeating the president as their primary goal, there are there -- therefore they're not -- of course they're not operating on the basis of trying to solve any problems. now, before any republicans get upset with me for saying these things that i honestly believe to be true, don't get mad at me, americans believe that that's what they're doing. here's the question put to americans. republicans would rather see president obama lose than see america win. half of americans believe the republicans are sabotaging the recovery to win an election. this is a "the washington post" poll. 50% responded positively to that, 44% said no. if you got most people thinking that your main goal is to get rid of the president and not help them, that's a problem and, look, some folks might say, ah, keith, that's not true. that's just you politicians arg

there are things we have to do in terms of security and providing for the f.a.a. and department of defense but we have to utilize those resources in a very wise way. i'll reserve the balance of my time. the chair: the gentleman from missouri. mr. cleaver: i would like to yield now one minute to the distinguished lady from california, ms. lee. the chair: the gentlelady is recognized for one minute. ms. lee: thank you, mr. chairman. let me first thank chairman cleaver depr his tremendous leadership of the congressional black caucus an many caucuses in this house and also representative wonny scot an represent gwynn moore. at a time when this nation is facing the greatest income inequality since the great depression, we have to put the needs of the most vulnerable over the wants of the most wealthy. the congressional black caucus' budget is a moral document that shows our priorities and values. it makes important investments in transportation, education, and health care. it also protect this is safety net without cutting social security, destroying medicaid and endin
