helm, he said he told mckinley that it was a mistake to nominate that wild man in philadelphia, and no look, that wild cowboy is the president of the united states and teddy roosevelt buried a liberally took that image. in the early 20th century, the cabal of the images you have of the cowboys of the 20th century you don't have any, because the western image of the early 20th century is of okies, it is of a terribly hard life people pour off the plane, the whole reason we have mount rushmore is because they are so desperate to get anybody to self the coda, the figure that maybe if they put up a statue on a mountain -- there are so desperate to get anybody out there, they figure that maybe if they put up a statue on a mountain, it will bring people. so here is this image in "life" magazine, and this man is clarence haley long and the interesting thing about this more liberal man -- this marlboro man is not that he just died of cancer, but he was originally on the goodnight trail. why did they start this campaign? why did this happen in 1954? a little thing called brown v. board. this

mckinley of west virginia. the chair: pursuant to the house resolution 27, the gentleman from virginia, mr. mckinley, and a member opposed, will each control five minutes. the chair recognizes the gentleman from west virginia. mr. mckinley: thank you, mr. chairman. this amendment is simple. it ensures that agencies must take into consideration the impacts on low-income families -- communities when they develop regulations. this amendment is based on a 1994 executive order from president clinton that was intended to protect low-income populations from negative effects on regulations. burdensome regulations have a real impact on families regardless of their race or ethnicity. what makes sense on a bureaucratic's desk in washington does not always work in the real world. in fact, these regulations are hurting people, especially in economically depressed communities. people have lost jobs and are facing increasing prices for energy, food, health care and more. families who bear this brunt are not just statistics, t

mckinley's point. they do not require to implement the requirements? >> well, they're not required, but the states have clearly called on us to figure out ways of aligning the federal departments with the program. that is why we've established the programs, the states can in fact integrate the minimum federal requirements that we've established within the state program program, seek epa's approval within that. >> neither epa nor the states can directly enforce the requirements in the nina rule, isn't that correct? >> that is correct. we believe utilizing the plan, the states can go forward and implement the requirements once a state's management plan is approved or independently states can -- citizens can implement requirements of the rule. >> and under your rule, the only enforcement mechanism under the recent redugsed rule is through citizen suits and more litigation, is that correct? >> we actually believe again that the state management plan when approved will not result in excessive litigation there will be litigation enforced in those circumstanc

and in this sense, it's william mckinley who is the founding father of the religious influence. i'm sure a lot of you know this very famous story about how he was undecided what to do with philippines in late 1988, and he got down on his knees and prayed to god for forgiveness in the white house and god told him to annex, i.e., colonize the philippines. i would rank george bush to one of the most diplomatic in history, harry truman, eisenhower and those religious suspects who i recognized earlier in my talk. the apogy of this influence, it seems to me came very recently in the presence of george w.e. bush. in the age of bush this was obviously true in a top-down sense, from the white house, not just the president himself, but figures like condoleezza rice and steven hadley. all through the bush administration, religion was maybe not dominant but certainly very prevalent. this was true even in a place like the pentagon in which there weren't a lot of demonstrably religious officials presiding people like don rumsfeld who are not the most spiritual men but a lot of pentagon briefi
