[applause] thank you, manny. there he is. mike, connie ford, and tim paulson, who wish to could have been here. thank you, tim, for your stewardship and support of all of this. i'm sorry to be long winded. i have said this. there's nothing more important. the first department head meeting i had was at west point and middle point. it was literally hours after i was sworn in as mayor. i said we needed to commit ourselves. to be back up where we are rebuilding those hunters point public housing sites, and we have real plans, real money, and real progress is being made. this is a point of personal privilege. we really consume ourselves and committed ourselves to this project and getting this don

i think that what james o'keefe did to acorn was reprehensible and racist. i think it was also shameful that the powerful democrats in both cases refused in realtime to step up and denounce it for what it was. so, having said that, i think you are right, that you are going to see a lot more sort of gorilla tactics like we have seen with wikileaks. brightbart is more dishonest ambushing of people and the targeting of people who in the case of both acorn and shirley sherrod those were utterly false. but it is what sells. i think that is a big part. and i don't even mean making money. look at the headlines caused by wikileaks and what is amazing is how the conversation has degenerated into a discussion almost exclusively about the names of afghans being listed in those documents. if i was the one releasing them i wouldn't have put the names of afghanistans out there. that is something only wikileaks can answer as to why they did that. but the idea that because they were released in the way they were or because they did that that they shouldn't be subjected to a

you see this big to do made about acorn, which was prudent to be false. what concerns me the most, however is that people rely only on the news instead of reading the books that are written by the people who are involved in the serious incidents and situations that come up in this country. i find it just astounding that they would accuse your station, nbc, us being partial, because, you know, you can tune in to joe scarborough every morning and hear three hours of democrat bashing and miss statements on his program, which offers us the many "liberals" who are not really liberal at all. guest: the caller made a point, and there is something to be said about the politicization of the news media. whether it is republicans to claim -- who complain about msnbc or fox news. we are almost caught in the middle. it is disheartening when we are trying to report about the truth, that you are caught in the middle. sometimes people do not believe at all what you are going to say. i think i have the greatest job in the world, to be able to cover politics, so much energ

useful exchange of information and expertise occurs when noaa is consulted early in the process as acorn dating agency or co lead. we cannot alternatives, terms and conditions to -- we can offer alternatives terms and conditions for oil and gas activities. i believe we are fortunate in reevaluating our approach to offshore gas and development at the same time the administration begins to implement the new national ocean policy and marine special planning framework. the national ocean policy and national coaching council will increase coordination and data sharing among agencies and insurer we are all working toward the same goal of sustainability. human uses of our coast, including development is expanding at a rate to challenge our ability to manage them under the sector by sector approach. the new framework will create opportunities to implement pro- active science-based approaches to multiple use management. it creates the opportunity to connect cumulative impact assessments, risk assessment, and specific trade off analyses, hopefully leading to more informed decisions about oil and g

it is a word like a cliche during the last election, acorn was out there, there was a lot of flow of the other side where they were throwing this in your face. we know that there are two sides to a coin, so what is wrong with our opinion? many of us have christian standards and we understand everything. that is all we have to say, do not underestimate people. host: jamaica, n.y., yolanda, good morning. caller: how are you? host: fine, thank you. caller: sitting here, listening to the show, i am a democrat and i am so disappointed in what is going on. the media has become so divisive, we have campaigns running against immigrants, issues about building a mosque. i think we have lost sight of what is going on, which is the economy. we cannot keep blaming bush and obama. we need to come up with a strategy. the republicans cannot just keep blocking everything that obama wants to do. it is the same thing with the mosque, is not about every one that died on 9/11, not all muslims are bad, not all african-americans are bad. i do not particularly care for the tea party, because of what their a

acorn did it, organizers for america did it, you might have seen a piece in "the wall street journal" where unions protesting non-union shops are hiring non- union labor and minimum wage to run their picket lines. it is the left projecting -- it is very much a grassroots thing and i think groups like lisa's and others just bring some expertise to the table and facilitate. i can say that but i think some credibility, with either of innovation. that is my two cents. >> whoever wants to build this question. james carroll i am from georgia, and in georgia a lot of the participants in georgia are conservative leaning old people, but the leadership, those again appointed to leadership are libertarian and they caused the tea party to endorse more libertarian candidate. a d think it is the purpose of the tea party movement to endorse candidates or should they let people decide on their own? >> take a shot. >> i don't know if anyone heard who won the straw poll at cpac this past. here is the thing -- things like straw polls and endorsing candidates, a lot of times when it comes from a leader i

old indian word for small acorn. host: all right. caller: i would like to say about the manufacturing, as the woman that called earlier, the problem with the manufacturing jobs in the united states is all of the e.p.a. regulations and it is so strict it is not allowed in our country to violate the environmental laws and it goes to china and they violate it and it is the same air, same world. isn't it like our own selves that have causeded the problem with the strict regulations? guest: thank probably plays some role. there are looser regulations in emerging markets and when we talk about climate regulations if we've tight rules here that will send jobs elsewhere. that is why it is so important to work closely with china and encourage them to come to the table with us and negotiate environmental rules that will be mutually beneficial. host: columbia, tennessee, will, independent line. caller: good morning, c-span. i appreciate this opportunity. i appreciate c-span for all of it does for the american citizen giving us the open window a

voting rights, for david hamilton, the acorn member, you voted for cloture but voted differently on the substantive motion. so a procedural vote really doesn't count. not only that, that procedural vote that you mentioned was not a vote to repeal, it was a vote to table. but again, we respect the thactfa you voted against obama on that. but what i want alaskans to know is that we have a difference in perspective about the need for government health care. you indicated that you want a government health care plan that works. my view is the central government has no role in providing for a government health care plan, let alone one that has a stamp of obama care on it. i think a complete repeal is necessary. you waited until july 29 to sign the bill. there are many other co-sponsors that signed on immediately. but it took you until my campaign put pressure on you to actually vote for a full repeal or co-sponsor a full repeal. thank you. >> thank you. i will state again, and it's absolutely clear on its face that i voted to fully repeal -- fully repeal the obama health care plan the day aft

things i've been reading is that, you know, the professional left, in issues like shirley sherrod, acorn, the administration seems to be more responsive to the professional right than the professional left. do you have any response to that? >> that's sort of an question. what the president is most response to have is the needs of our country. he's focused on, how do we grow our economy, how do we educate our kids? i wouldn't say that that's particularly right or left. >> and finally, was the president angry about the uproar surrounding michelle's trip to spain? >> not think a know of. -- that i know of. >> a couple of things. the panama city trip this weekend, what you can tell us about what the president and his family will do there and since we're on the topic of vacations, why only one night? >> i checked into the itinerary right before i came out here. unfortunately i don't have anything to announce for you. hopefully later in the week we'll have more about what they'll be doing in and around panama city. >> [inaudible] we were told some -- [inaudible] >> i don't think that that's ch
