so the advantage of midazolam in an anesthetic, it is amnesia in the moment. but afterwards that's the point, and i can't ask an executed person, the amnesia they would have is useless to them, isn't it. >> that's a fascinating point. the idea that someone could still experience other things, despite being under the influence of that medication is a really important point. as you point out, we don't have the opportunity to go back and revault. you suggest in a usa today editorial, firing squad, guillotine, something like that. are you being facetious or honest? >> my view of the death penalty is not at issue. i will tell you that lethal injection won't work. it won't work. even if it looks like it works, it won't. it won't satisfy the question of cruelty. so if states choose to execute, how they choose to execute is their business, but they can't use medicine to do it. that's my position. >> is it the least sort of cruel, least, you know, most humane? >> to my view it is no less cruel than any other method per se. >> firing squad? >> the only reason why lethal

it causes amnesia. if that's given, based on your experience, would the patient have any knowledge of the p paralytic and the other medications given to stop the heart? >> you're talking about a patient now. if you talk about a patient, that's different than an inmate who is not a patient. >> in terms of what the drugs do to the body. >> what midazolam will do, it can create amnesia. what's interesting about midazolam, when i give a patient midazolam, i can have a conversation with them after giving it to them, and afterwards, say we go ahead and conduct an anesthetic, later on i ask them do you recall the conversation we had, they will say no. not completely, but it can create that kind of amnesia. they still experience it in the moment. so the advantage of midazolam in an anesthetic, it is amnesia in the moment. but afterwards that's the point, and i can't ask an executed person, the amnesia they would have is useless to them, isn't it. >> that's a fascinating point. the idea that someone could still

he calls it igen amnesia. you just heard karen. in the 10 years since abu ghraib, no high-level cia agent or private contractor has been charged or brought to trial. why is that? >> okay. let's stop confusing two different issues here. the idea that nobody was punished for abu ghraib is fallacious. >> i said nobody who designed or from a high level implemented the policy. >> as to what we are talking about with regards to being designed, but let's separate enhanced interrogation from abu ghraib. abu ghraib was not endorsed or designed by anybody. it was a group of mostly reserve military individuals who were out of control, and when it was uncovered, they were punished, soundly punished and court martialed. if you want to talk about enhanced interrogation and the cia procedures, that's another question. we can talk about that. but i think it's very interesting that the president has been given a dose of reality and he has kept in place most if not all of the procedures that his predecessor did, whether it was the use of drone strik

people say you have amnesia. >> there was a protest in australia, for god's sake. protests across the planet because of this video. >> but people in america would probably be talking about the americans, including the u.s. ambassador who was killed. >> sure. >> the things that were happening around the globe, that probably took precedence, don't you agree? >> sure. the ambassador's death, the three others who were killed that day, that is a tragedy. what we should be worried about is making sure that never happens again. instead, this ridiculous political game about talking points. >> ridiculous? don't you think it's -- >> creating a cover-up. >> just try to be straight here. isn't it ridiculous that this particular e-mail did not get released originally? >> yes. >> why did it take a judge to get this ben rhodes e-mail snf i don't know. i bet every single person in the white house wished that e-mail had been had released earlier. i do too because it tells us nothing new. it tells us what we said privately is what we said publicly because that's what we thought had

people seem to have am-- amnesia, they forget about the bad times.k and say hey, how am i doing, people tend to underperform the stock index they are trying to be invested in it if you look at t the average stock investor, 5% return over a 20 year period, the index up over 9.2% so we were's lacking the index simply because we jump in at the wrong times and bail out at the wrong times. >> jeff: the old adage was sell in may and go away. is that a good idea this year? >> well, you know, it has worked statistically over time. it's little strange that it has worked but i wouldn't really put your hopes of your long-term retirement assets into an old saying. what i would do is stick to a nice diversified portfolio g to your company's web siting you'll get there, take a risk tolerance test. try to ignore the ups and downs, stick to the game plan. >> jeff: but at this particular moment, be careful. >> always. >> jeff: jill, thank you very much. a rare and not all together pleasant sight off the coast of florida. you're looking at a goblin shark. you can see

and i played amnesia and brain wash and a number of places and i would like to see something even smaller, scale like drift wood a place for acoustic music and i think that it will be really cool. >> thank you, any other public comment? >> seeing none, public comment is now closed. and we will move it on to a vote. and if there is a motion? >> i make a motion. to approve the applicant. >> okay. >> second it. >> all right. motion and a second. >> same house same call? >> sounds good to me. >> yes. >> all right, that means that is approved. we will move on to the next congratulations, and we will move on to item 6 e which is chacha cha. at original mccarthy. >> this is jeffrey and this is actually isabelle puck, but he is here, and they are seeking a limited live performance permit. >> it is one of san francisco oldest bars, and i have been told, that they have one of the oldest abc permits in the city. and they have just been named heritage legacy bar list, and cha cha cha moved in like several years ago, 90s and now it is the cha cha cha original mccarthy and like to have music for happy

i think we suffer from a bit of amnesia if we believe that reagan's defense buildup and his fight against communism, alongside margaret thatcher and john paul ii, were some sort of inevitable triumph of consensus policies. in fact, reagan's policies were resisted every step of the way. viciously. and just as steps that we need to take today are and will be resisted. i also think the effort of heritage to look back a century at world war i is good and needed. partly to prevent the sort of amnesia that i just mentioned and partly because there seems to be an inevitable tendency to abuse history for current political ends. even recent history. we tend to err in one of two ways. either we try to shoehorn whatever the current problem is into some sort of historical analogy, and it's usually munich, vietnam or these days iraq, or -- and thereby make the outcome inevitable. or we tend to forget the lessons of history and thereby fulfill the warning by repeating the mistakes of the past. the truth is, no result is inevitable. it depends on the decisions we and others make, but if we're wise we ca

colleagues on the other side of the aisle did not have selective amnesia when it comes to what's appropriatehe democrats double standard straight ahead. >> they attacked tim tebow for talking about his faith but praised michael sam for being gay. does the media have two different definitions when talking about tolerance? >> together they can take on

when it comes to what's appropriate to raise money off of and what is not. >> selective amnesia.ight. >> that was an intelligent conversation. they actually engaged each other instead of yelling. the criteria democrats want is unreasonable for them to participate. i'm sure it is put out there to be -- hopefully they'll back off it. they want to be able to sign off all subpoenas. let's say the republicans want to see hillaryç clinton. i don't think so. there is no way trey gowdy should give them that. sign off on all witnesses, i think that is unreasonable too. to say we should have access to call our own witnesses, that would be reasonable. any democrat should be able to question any witness. and for the g.o.p. to not selectively release testimony, i think that's totally reasonable demand. absolutely you should not say okay, i like what that person said. let's show that to the press as opposed to the other person. the last two i think they can deal with. >> trey gowdy is a fair-minded individual saying politics should not be involved when it comes to getting to the truth.ç reme

. >> gouddy accused democrats of have being amnesia. i want to give you a chance to respond to that first. >> well, he's just flat wrong. this is a permanent select committee. this was a tragedy that should not be exploited by the nrcc based on this permanent select committee. by the way, he agrees with me. other notable republicans have agreed with my position that this should not be a fund raising strategy. and still even today the nrcc continues to use this permanent select committee not to seek answers to questions but to seek dollars from big supporters. >> i've seen dccced as that talk about ncc fundraising. so isn't that just a vicious cycle in republicans fund raise off of a tragedy, democrats say it's not okay. >> we are not raising money of a permanent select committee. republicans in congress have done just that. >> congressman steve israel, thank you so much for your time and thoughts. joining me now is senior writer for politico, glenn thrush, and also sam stein. sam, i want to go with you first. we were quoting the piece y

, but it would be helpful if our colleagues on the other side of the aisle did not have selective amnesiait comes to what's appropriate to raise money off of and what is not. >> wow, this is kind of getting off topic here, john. what's happening with this? >> there's a phrase having a political tin ear, which bad politicians have this trait where they just don't connect, and i saw it the other day when this thing came out, and they asked the speaker three times at a press conference and he wouldn't answer it about the fundraising, what he should have said is i'm the top republican in washington, and by the time this press conference is over, that fundraising is stopping and there will be no more of it. and here we are sunday and i haven't heard yet that it's stopped. >> pat. >> well, it just goes to show you there's no group that can destroy their opportunities more than republicans. i swear to god, the form a circle firing squad. how dumb? how outrajs? the reason we had -- if we had not waited a year and a half and done what we talk about the darrel issa thing and how badly he handled th

we must view the last six years as a bump on the forehead that gave us exceptional amnesia in which we forgot our greatness. we must reassert our military might, economic prowess and moral integrity. the pity part ji over because retreating from the world is impossible. where are we going to go, narnia? besides, saying it's not our fight over and over and over again ultimately empowers evil. once the only person who's willing to shout "stop" decides to shut up forever, the silence will only be temporary, as those who spread misery now have the stage. ultimately, it will always be up to us to yank them off. what are you laughing at? what are you laughing at? >> nothing. nothing. nothing. >> bob, what do you make of the poll? what does it say to you? >> i think it reflects fairly well where the american people are. i noticed in here that says obama gutted the military. that's not the case. beginning to take aapart the military happened under colin powell after the wall came down and the cold war essentially ended. it was going that way, and then george bush increased it because of what h

i think we suffer from a bit of amnesia if we believe that the defense buildup and his fight againstcommunism alongside margaret thatcher and john paul to wear some sort of an inevitable triumph of consistent policies. in fact ronald reagan's policies were resisted every step of the way viciously and adjust as the steps that we need today are and will be resisted. i also think that the effort too look back a century after world war i is needed to prevent this sort of admonition amnesia because there seems to be a tendency to abuse history for the current political ends even in recent history. we tend to air in one of two ways. we either shoehorned whatever the problem is into some sort of historical analogies and it's usually munich via, with these days iraq and thereby make the outcome and available to the inevitable forewarning by repeating the mistakes of the past. the truth is no result is inevitable. it depends on the decisions we make that if we are wise we can learn the history lessons and apply them to the circumstances of today. so if i can shortcut to my bottom line for pea

>> i'm gonna get you whatever you need for amnesia.emember what i said, if we don't make it, we're not selling it. we all agreed on that. >> tami, you don't think people should have opportunity to buy these things? >> not here. it's all this same [bleep] that they have everywhere. >> i don't, uh--i don't agree with that. >> if we don't make it, we don't sell it. period, end of discussion. i mean, we need this to get done, like, today. >> where are we gonna put it? >> we're gonna liquidate it, but we need to start-- >> but why don't we leave it on the shelves and mark down the pricing? as people come in, we get rid of it that way. >> well, 'cause i don't want to wait till next christmas. >> sort that. >> well, marcus, what are we gonna do with this stuff now? >> sell it. why don't we put up a couple signs? and let's start working on that. >> tami, make up signs. everything's a dollar. >> if we don't make it-- >> we don't sell it. >> everything's a dollar! come on in! >> get all of your souvenirs and save an amazing amount of money. >> h

maybe now they are suffering from a bit of investor amnesia forgetting about the pain of the terriblet more than half of their value. of course, data show us that over the last 20 years, investors consistently buy and sell at the wrong time. what do they do? now what they do. they pull out at the low point, they buy at market highs, it really hurts their performance. in fact, if you look at 1994 to 2013, the average stock fund investor lagged the s&p stock index by 4.2% a year. why? because we buy high and sell low. >> we can't forget what goes up has to come down, too. how can we become smarter investors, then? >> reporter: you really want to actually avoid getting call up in the drama of the market. right? forgetting about the short term gyrations, focus on the long term. i'm not saying you shouldn't be in the market right now but you have to create a diversified portfolio that does incorporate your risk tolerance and also that to incorporate when you might need your money. most websites have tools to help you in the process. as much as possible put them on autopilot, remove the emo

in fact, a lot of people suffer from collective amnesia in this country.y don't remember in the 1950s, 1960s organized labor constituted about -- well, 30% to 50% of all workers in the private sector. that means that workers in the private sector had enough bargaining power to get a fair share of the economic gains of society. what we've seen since the -- well, just the recovery since 2009 is that 95% of the economic gains have gone to the top 1%. without any organization, without anybody speaking for and acting on behalf of the vast majority of american workers, they're going to get a bad deal. so the question is how do you revive the labor unit movement. i think really you start with low wage workers at walmart, at the fast food big conglomerates. these are the people who need to be organized. they also need not incidentally a rise in the minimum wage. >> you talk about that there's two democratic parties. that the demes are choosing between. which one do you think your friend hillary clinton is in? >> well, that's going to be an interesting question ove

this sort of amnesia around the bush legacy. part of it is because the republican party hasn't come to terms with anything. not anything in terms of policy. in terms of where they want the party to actually go. they haven't made amend with the ghosts of christmas past. >> the base has though. that's what's the most interesting thing to me about republican politics on foreign policy. it is still the case that all of the old think-tanks are operating. all bill crystals and dick cheneys on fox news. all the politics remained the same. the base has gone way in the other direction. how they feel about military interaction. >> the only war the tea party wants is against barack obama, mostly a rhetorical war. alex wagner, chris hayes. thank you for joining us. you are available to everyone tomorrow, four hours apart. 4:00 p.m., 8:00 p.m. >> how we thing of our self. >> just tune in. >> coming of an amazing interview with the late maya angelou about ronald reagan, caring for the poor and what that does for our national unity. what she s

but it would be helpful if our colleagues on the or side of the aisle did not have selective amnesianot. >> well, that's actually a very good point. >> well, selective amnesia is at least a universal as opposed to selective political affliction. >> either way i think it's -- i don't know if unethical is the right word. if you are going to criticize a policy, especially that involves people who perished, you don't raise money off of it. i don't think it works. but he's making the point that democrats have done the same thing i guess. >> the only thing both sides are looking at when we get meta about this is the calendar, the election year calendar. what it means for the mid terms and what it means beyond that and how long this can remain in the headlines is a benefit for republicans, regardless of whether they benefit off it or not, which is pretty disgusting. if it remains in the headlines, they have a narrative. >> we'll see what happens next on "morning joe." what if anything did we learn today. vo: once upon a time there was a boy who traveled to a faraway place where villages flo

. >> i think it's fascinating when you use people who had amnesia as part of the test. >> you look atrs did this. would you like to have lunch. they said yes. a few minutes later they said would you like to have lunch. they said yes. it's sort of a mean study when you think of it. at the same time it show as really clear lesson which is that we aren't taking the message from our stomachs. we're taking it from our stomachs and our brains. >> starting with foods we perceive as healthy, what did that show? >> so foods we perceive as healthy in terms of salads or in terms of food texture, so one interesting thing in terms of food textures actually is we tend to think that crunchy foods are healthy and we tend to thirg that soft foods are not healthy. how does this play out? what they did is fed people crunchy brownies and soft brownies. when they didn't prompt them with anything, people were more likely to eat soft brownies whechbl they were told to pay attention, all of a sudden everyone switched to crunchy brownies. does this make any sense? think about trail mix, granola, crunchy cerea

point is the amnesia we have in this country about history. that is preaching to the choir. i'm trying to dedicate my life to get young people to engage more in american history. with veterans, if public schools told adopt veterans, go elementary school, try to talk about things and bring some photos, perhaps, i think that is a useful project. at high school age, history teachers should have each student to an oral history interview of a veteran. your uncle serving in the korean war, or great uncle or something like that, to go and do an oral history with somebody who has and create a high school level oral history collection of the voices of our soldiers very we have got to find ways to get young people engaged in history particularly early and engage in world war ii. i inc. it is essential. a seminal event in the 21st century. and d-day. marking the 70th anniversary, john kerry writing today on a blog on the state department website that he and the president will go to normandy to mark the anniversary. put that in historical perspective. i'm sorry, what was the question? j

all due respect and i think you have historical and amnesia.hat was a crisis for the stock market over 12 years had dropped by 67% in real terms. the inflation was over 20%. that was the greatest economic racism the great depression. -- economic crisis since the great depression. barack obama came into office during a crisis. in whatook the office was a bigger crisis, and the two diametrically different approaches. the economy has grown at half the pace under barack obama's recovery as it did under ronald reagan. have $2 trillion more gdp, and we have 6 million more hadicans working if they the reagan expansion. you're going to have to explain to me why that did not happen. host: jonathan from georgia. caller: good morning. i remember what it was like in the late 70's as well. it took me two years to find a job after college. we had 10.8% unemployment in 1981. i have a newsweek from then. 21% interest rate, 13.5% inflation, it was horrible. in 83, 1980 4, 1985 it created $10 million and -- 10 million jobs in 36 months. it dropped to 3.5%. what

so we have this kind of selective amnesia on these issues. it seems to come into play having anything to do with the obama administration. there's nothing i can do about it this evening. maybe it's covered under the affordable care act. but i oppose this amendment and i oppose the knee-jerk, irresponsible actions that would suggest to countries like china and others that we want to control the internet versus we want it to be an opportunity for people to gather information, speak freely and associate freely. i yield back the balance of my time. the chair: the gentleman yields back. all time has expired on the amendment. the question is on the amendment offered by the gentleman from wisconsin. so many as are in favor say aye. those opposed, no. in the opinion of the chair, the ayes have it. the amendment is agreed to. >> ask for a recorded vote. the chair: pursuant to clause 6 of rule 18, further proceedings on the amendment offered by the gentleman from wisconsin will e postponed. for what purpose does the gentleman from new jersey rise? >> a

a moment in time -- we have a tendency to have instant amnesia. to move on from things.ember. mika, i can vividly recall a few days after september 11th, 9:30, 10:30 at night on 9th or 10th avenue, people standing there with pictures of loved ones holding them up as people would walk by. governor, other aspects of the museum, you mentioned a few. talk about other aspects of the museum that will have an imprint on anyone who goes to visit. >> well, i think there's the personal side of the individual stories. but there are also incredibly dramatic and i hate to use that word because it's tragic, but relics of like the impact site. where you'll see the twisted steel. you'll see the tridents that stood at the base of the tower. there are so many things that tell that story in a way that has to be told. >> all right. governor pataki, thank you so much for coming in and helping us tell this story. come back soon. i know you have lots of things to talk about. we'll talk politics next time. >>> up next, why exactly was jill abramson fired from "the new york times"? >> because sh

used this phrase in his interview, he said collective amnesia.he arab spring in a lawless libya at the time. >> we knew the day it happened, when mitt romney went out and held a press conference that he held wsh david gregory i think it was an unfortunately press conference to say the least. he didn't know what was going on. nobody knew what was going on. and it was sort of shoot first, ask questions later on both sides. on both sides. >> and mark halperin and i -- >> they knew from the very beginning this was a huge deal. >> right. mark halperin and i were together at the moment when mitt romney started reacting. and by the way, he was reacting to the apologetic statements coming out of the cairo embassy related to the video. but i think to thomas' point, the key questions here is we look back now and understand this was an attack on benghazi. and there was at the time information that was flowing out of there that was quite clearly a pre-planned attack. so part of it is why didn't they know? why didn't the administration know? why didn't the se

there are a lot of people in washington with amnesia.ring it for a long time. you have, i have. a lot of people that were promised health care for life, quality health care for life in return for putting the uniform on for this country. and you're right. it's forgotten. here's what i don't understand. most americans i talk to think shinseki should go. most veterans i talk to think shinseki should go. now democrats are joining republicans saying shinseki should go. but we've got the top political leaders in a bubble. boehner, cantor, pelosi still supporting him. what message would you like to give to the speaker of the house? the president of the united states, the majority leader, and the minority leader of the house? >> i want to know why they all didn't track on this sooner. the i.g. report is damning. now we know there were secret lists. they were cooking the boox. this is the appendix. it's panls of other i.g. testimony going back to 2007. since 2007 there have been i.g. reports, congressional testimonies. this has been out there. ev

. >> is it amnesia or hypocrisy? >> i'm not sure. i will say this, karl rove was at an event.ing barely reported. the secretary of state in the final days in office disappeared when she was supposed to be testifying. many people thought she's trying to get out of testifying. later they found out she fell, had a blood clot behind her ear, so there was a legitimate health situation here. so was it the fact that it was fatigue or was it after four years of rigorous tension and stress that she was in bad health? she was worn out by the end. she didn't look like the same person competing for the nomination with barak obama. so i think that was an interesting point to bring up. and the fact that she's going to be that age, is going to be doing this again eight years later, i think health is a legitimate issue. i think when they talked about brain damage and something wrong with her, they're trying to corner karl rove into an explanation of saying you're out of bounds. i know nicole wallace who worked with president bush came out and said i thought that was out of bounds. i actually

measure of integration, but what the caller is referring to thatis critical period many americans have amnesiabout or want to forget, and that is the period which across the entire south, and frank, in the north -- one must not forget an effort tore was massively resist integration, and what we lost was the beginning of us breaking the covenant with our children around public education. it was not because of teachers unions, not because we needed a common core, it was brown. iconicrock nine, the case, and the picture of the nine students trying to enter school in arkansas, which is where the caller litigated and worked on school issues, occurs in 1958. brown is 1954. president eisenhower has to call out the air force division to protect teenagers trying to go to school. when we talk about brown, let's not jump from the case the legal to end fund litigated segregation, the high moment of the supreme court declined a segregation violated laws, and then jump to 2014. you have to deal with the period after brown, which lasted until the 1970's, and it was met by the supreme court beginning reversal

. >> did she have amnesia about the mortgages?t subprime mortgages, who was pushing that? >> that's right. that was actually under the clinton administration. that's absolutely right. but even more than that, when you look at the unemployment story in this country, we are nowhere guys. i mean, let's face it. yes, we are just, you know, above 6% on unemployment. but the fact is the participation rate has plummeted. so even the last employment report where we saw almost 300,000 new jobs created, 800,000 people have simply given up. they've stopped looking. so the participation rate keeps falling. so you really can't look at this economy right now and say it's so much better than the bush administration. in fact, it's a lot worse, and that's actually a fact. >> is it based on printing money? >> yeah. >> it's not a real economy. >> take a look at this. up 19.4 million since 2008. the number of americans on food stamps. you think this was wise politically for clinton to link the obama economy with the clinton economy? she would have be
