speaker, even by his standards that was the most slippery argument i can possibly imagine. that is unbelievable. he comes to this house 26 times since he became prime minister and boasted about how he is increasing health spending every year. but he failed to meet the promise, mr. speaker. it is your argument between me and him, we have a ruling from the chair of the independent u.k. statistics authority who says it hasn't happened and i would be grateful if the department of health could clarify the statements made. why don't we just correct the record? >> it is a simple point. the spending figures for 2010 was set by the last labor government. those are the figures we inherited. all the gentleman is doing is proving that his government was planning for an n.h.s. cut. we have taken that figure in 2010, we increased it in 2011 and we are increasing it again in every year of this parliament. people don't have to look at manifestos for contrast they can look at what labor is doing in whales. it is in charge in whales and they have cut the n.h.s. in whales by 8%. quality is do

that's a staggering number, even by the standards in syria where these days routinely we're hearing that well over 100 people a day were killed because of the fighting there. what we're hearing, the reports that are emerging that in hums province that at least 200 people were killed after regime forces retook a city from the rebel free syrian army forces. now, one activist told us that they got some of their information from a captured syrian soldier that told them that many people had been rounded up. that they had been taking to a petro chemical plant there and executed. we're still trying to get more details about this. the syrian government for their part said they went in and that they captured and killed a lot of terrorists. terrorists is the term they use when they're referring to opposition fighters. this sounds like a horrific crime that happened yesterday. we're waiting for more details to emerge in the hours to come. alison? >> it seems the rebels are gaining ground or a crackdown by syrian forces? >> essentially a war of attrition. it has been for quite a while. yes, the rebe

the numbers from activists are staggering even by standards that we've grown accustomed to in syria whereinely these days hear of death tolls over 100 a day, especially in the past week. we're talking about at least 397 people reported dead throughout syria yesterday as a result of the violence there. this unabating civil war raging for so long. we're told by opposition activists that at least 200 of these people were killed in hunts province. they say after the syrian regime recaptured the town, they took hundreds of people away and that they executed them, summarily executed them. activists say they got the intelligence from a captured syrian soldier who told them about the massacre. one doctor in the area said he had examined bodies when had been killed by stabbing and shooting. they said that there was the sterch of a lot of bodies burned as well. very gruesome, grizzy reports emerging from the town today. we expect to hear more in the hours to come. >> why has the fighting intensified despite the fact there's calls for peace? >> what's happening in syria right now ithat the rebels se

>> apparently the environmental protection agency thinks that it is a good time to make standards evenbusinesses can have another disincentive to create jobs and put money back in the economy. it really makes you scratch your head. this is the same environmental protection agency that thought it but it was also a good idea to toughen up standards on farms. dust standards on farms. which they have every five years, the epa has to kind of revisit the clean air act, and they can keep the standards status quo, they can lower them. i think like newt gingrich said, this agency needs to be abolished. it is a job killer. at a time when we need jobs, and we are talking about businesses investing in the economy and getting the economy going again, this makes you go, oh, my goodness. neil: i'm wondering about why it is okay to ram the stuff down our throats. it is tough to even consider raising medicare eligibility age. >> that is obviously something that is clearly necessary. when it comes to fixing the entitlement programs. listening a few seconds ago was full frustrating at several junctures.

. >> john quincy adams deal with clay and 1824 -- was that ethical by the standards of those days and maybe evenretrospectively by our standards? >> it certainly was ethical in those days. obviously he took a lot of flak for it, but the choice in his mind was to turn the country over to a barbarian who couldn't write his name who had violated the constitution during the war of 1812 and had gone into the massacre of the seminoles, doing whatever he felt like doing. he did not want to see this and president. >> at one point in the book you describe him as a bit of a grow. do you think you would like him as a person? >> yes. [laughter] >> if there's some time travel involved. >> all of us are grouchy at times. he didn't suffer fools, and so he would be grouchy. i was grouchy last night when romney said we have fewer ships today than we had in 1917. i was grouchy when obama said something just as stupid. john quincy adams was this fabulously learned man who had stayed with history. the reason for the monroe doctrine -- in south america the various countries were beginning to rebel against the spanis

but cities constructed these systems before treatment was the standard. and even today's largest treatment plant doesn't have the capacity to treat the sudden volumes of water rushing through a combined system during rain. the plant is overloaded, and the excess rainwater, mixed with untreated raw sewage, is diverted straight into local waterways, creating a combined sewer overflow, or cso. there are over 700 communities in the united states with combined sewer systems. the other approach was to separate wastewater from stormwater, using two pipe networks. this separate system simply carries the stormwater away from the city. but even separate systems pollute the watershed. in developed areas, concrete and other impervious services prevent water from naturally soaking into the land. as the rainwater moves over the roads and concrete expanse, it captures trash and invisible chemicals, sending them straight to the nearest waterway -- untreated. when engineers first designed america's water infrastructure -- the drinking water, wastewater, and stormwater systems -- t

and that's a very different standard than even exists at fannie and freddie. i don't understand. why are you doing that? >> this is another area where we are working on changes. here's the issue. we have a significant number of homeowners that were responsible homeowners, had good credit scores that lost their jobs in the biggest economic crisis this country has faced since the depression. and we believe if somebody can show that they are back at the work and responsible borrower again, that that's somebody that we ought to work with. i would agree that our standards are not clear enough in dividing those. so what we believe we need to do is clarify those standards but not necessarily eliminate the possibility that somebody who has done the right thing and through no fault of their own lost a job but can be a responsible homeowner again, has the chance. my view would be it's not just the three-year limit that's important, it's what are the criteria that we set for how somebody re-establishes their credit and being a responsible homeowner? >> my last question, thank you for your p

a new report from the department of health and services says that even though a standard back brace canund on the internet for $99, the government pays $900. it's been a while. thanks for coming on tonight. i looked at your entire -- the whole number and i was surprised it was so low. what was it, $27 billion of stuff like this in medicare, is that a year? >> that's per year 2012, overpayments by medicare. that doesn't include the prescription drug program, where certainly it's a large amount of money as well. they just haven't gotten there yet. it's probably an underestimation because they don't look at everything. >> it's 29.6. now ten years, correct me if i'm wrong, that's like -- is that $300 billion? isn't that sort of what we're talking about trying to cut or approximately what we're trying to cut? >> it goes to the whole question of why are we even talking about raising taxes and i know you talk about it because i watch you, joe. with why are we talking about it when we should be looking at the inefficiencies of these programs? hundreds of billions in duplication and overlap. med

to high death tolls and civilian casualties in syria, but what happened today was brutal even by that war standardwe've made this video blurry on purpose because the scene is so awful. it's a small village in western syria. witnesses say a government warplane dropped bombs on a bakery today where long lines of people were waiting just to get some bread. more than 100 people are dead now. i want to talk to cnn's mohammed j j jamjoon. >> reporter: it's horrific details that have emerged the past few hours since we first reported this bombing. activists tell us that around 3:00 to 4:00 p.m. local in syria today that this warplane dropped this shell on this bakery. they say that hundreds of people were lined up outside, that there had been shortages of food throughout the last week. this was the first day that that bakery that had been hit was open and that because of that, at least 100 people they say were killed. the video that we've seen posted online, we can't independently verify it, but it seems to be corroborated by what we've been told by activists. it shows an absolutely grisly scene, mangled

mean, central corridor -- this plan took a long time to get through the process, even kind of in san francisco standards, you know. took about as long as the shelf life of zoning. so, i don't think it's unreasonable that we're now undertaking a plan in the same area, generally in the same area in some overlap. so, i'd just like to see that recognized somewhere in the plan that that's actually happening. i think it makes sense when people look back on it and ask that question, why are we looking at central corridor so soon after we've adopted this plan. i think there is legitimate reason for it. so, we should state that. >> any additional comment? okay, thank you. >> commissioners, it will place you under item 13 for case no. 2012.1315 t, amendments to the planning code adding new section 102.36.1 to establish an annual monitoring requirement for student housing conversions. >> good afternoon, president fong, members of the commission. cynthia hayward, planning staff. this ordinance was proposed by supervisor kim and i see that [speaker not understood] from her staff is here. so, with your permission i'd

we'll never know what the standard was. we won't even know who exercised that standard.s is is a blank check for the government to run rampant over our privacy rights as it does all the time without authorization by congress and in a manner the public could never imagine. megyn: president bush came under fire when they were listening in on these telephone calls that americans were having if they believed a terrorist was on the other end. he and the administration got severely criticized and many defended them saying, they are saying a suspected terrorist -- second of all, we are talking about terrorism. and the country gives the administration more leeway when it comes to protecting this nation against a terrorist attack. >> i think you are right. the right to privacy is gradually slipping through our hands because the government scared a lot of us thinking by surrendering our privacy to bureaucrats they will keep us safer. i don't buy it. i don't think you do either. megyn: i'm not telling you how i feel. so there. >> merry christmas to you. megyn: as i mentioned. judge

and it was astounding speed by today's standards. that even during that time people hated him and so forth. but just to jump far forward, in the '70s there was a lot of questioning even be the people who were interested in warhol had he so sold out? what is left? he did endless commission portraits. there's a funny book on that subject and it sounded like he was like a car dealer hammering his assistants to get commissions! >> rose: to what end? >> well, he loved money. and he did love money and he loved hanging out with the kings and the queens and all that sort of thing. >> those commission portraits look better and better. but there's a divide, i think, with having been shot by valerie sew lans any in '68. because there was in this period of hiatus, so there was a kind of apogee in the late '60s and then there was the demise of pop and coincidental with that andy was pronounced dead and really never fully recovered from that and so there was a period. and then this style really changed as he began in the early '70s with commission portraits
