mr. speaker, h.r. 5110 is a good bill. representive ann kirkpatrick has worked hard to bring it to the floor and i urge the house to approve it. i reserve the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlewoman from the virgin islands reserves the balance of her time. the gentleman from washington. mr. hastings: thank you, mr. speaker. mr. speaker, i yield myself such time as i may consume. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from washington is recognized. mr. hastings: thank you, mr. speaker. mr. speaker, there are many things in my view that are wrong with this bill and i just want to point out three of them. first, this bill represents wasteful and unnecessary spending at a time of exploding federal debt. second, it lacks needed protections for private property rights. and third, it expands the already loaded federal government at a time when our priority should be on jobs and economic growth not the growth of government. it shouldn't be necessary to point out that at a time of near double-digit unemployment and trillion dol

mr. burgess: i yield myself such time as i may consume. the bill before us reflects hours of staff negotiations and i want to thank ann and ryan as well as ray and mr. van hollen's office. this bill has passed unanimously and has come to the floor. i have spoken to medical students recently and i have told them that the tools and technologies they will have at their disposal will revolutionize their medicine. doctors who are struggling. with m.s. examinations generally reveals evidence of neurologic disfunction. it is not science fiction to think that a scientist noticing a blood mark in certain patients will be able to use surveillance systems like the ones created under this bill to link it with occupations, and other demographic information. we will have the ability to create progression markers to help researchers compile the data. that's how well's get the treatments and cures for the next generation. future physicians will be able to tailor treatments and disseminate the information to connect to available resources. but we need to put in place the first building block, the evidence supports the role of environmental exposure to condit

ann curry. her clip was clipped. what she said was you've got a great job, got a great big job at goldman sachs. apparently working at goldman sachs is something mr. pantano is something he would rather have voters not know. >> this is the second time in a way grayson's attack ads have gotten him in trouble. >> first off, you don't compare another american to the taliban. i screamed louder than anybody when saxby chambliss, the dirt bag senator, became senator by accusing max cleland, lost three limbs in vietnam and he ran an ad comparing him to saddam hussein and osama bin laden. this is not a hc of a lot better. it's right. the edit job on that speech was deeply dishonest. i think you can win on the issues if -- if the votes he cites are accurate, that's enough to run on. if the guy did oppose divorce for abused women, that's a pretty important issue. you don't need to guild the lily but misleading edits. >> by the way, there was a covenant marriage proposal he had submitted in a state senate that got rejected and that's where they get that. alex, what about pantano's ad, the guy has served our country. why re-edit news clips? >> it's the wrong

ann arbor. tell us what the latest is. >> the latest is, chris, as you said, has filed for a restraining order against mr. shirvell. he asked the judge to implement it immediately. the judge denied that and set a hearing for 1:30 p.m. on october 4th. we'll hear from both sides on whether or not a personal protection order should be entered. >> david, i want to just play you more from and erson cooper' show last night. mike cox, attorney general of michigan, was on the show. he has earlier said that the -- his assistant, shirvell, has a right to say what he's had to say. he was pressed a little further. let's listen to exactly what he said. >> certainly, it's -- it's unbecoming of civil discourse. it's unbecoming of common courtesy. and, you know, i -- quite frankly, i feel embarrassed for mr. armstrong. you know, that he has this unwanted attention. but, again, anderson, this is speech put on a blog. now, if there's conduct that's verified, for instance, if a personal protection order was sought by mr. armstrong and granted in the michigan civil service or disciplinary code, we could start looking at things in term
