what do say to members of an your arm party who say [inaudible] >> our biggest priority, as an administration, is to get the economy back on track and get people back to work. without re-litigating the past, i am convinced, and a vast majority of economists are convinced, the steps we took in the recovery act saved millions of people their jobs are created a whole bunch of jobs. as you see what happens with the recovery act phasing out, when i came into office and budget were hemorrhaging at the state level, part of the recovery act was giving states help so they would not have to lay off teachers, police officers, or firefighters. we have seen federal support for states diminish. you have seen the biggest job losses in the public sector, teachers, police officers, firefighters, all losing their jobs. my strong preference would be for us to the euro ways in which we can continue to provide help across the board, but i am operating within some political constraints here. whenever i do have to go to the house of representatives. what that means, then, is that among the options available to us i

hickock, after leaving the associated press then went to work directly for the roosevelt administration as an undercover investigator of poverty and relief conditions. the roosevelt administration. franklin is behind it. didn't really believe that the newspapers and the media of the day was telling people the extent of poverty. he wanted an independent investigations of how well welfare programs were working. independent investigations of how desperate people really were. he wanted a personal source of information. and hickock was one of the investigators. there were others. who were hired to go out -- around the country and make these reports that went to harry hopkins who was head of the new deal relief efforts. and also to franklin himself and, of course, eleanor saw these reports. so that's -- that was part of their puerto rican trip. now, hickock, like miller, certainly wasn't a member of the upper crust. she was the daughter of a traveling butter maker in south dakota who had abused her as a child. as a reporter for the associated press, she had learned to write for average people. and

training and in the fall of 2009, the opportunity, mind you to work at second harvest food bank as an administrative assistant through the federal stimulus program. she said she's still married to her husband, they have three beautiful children an there's no way she could have kept her family together without the help of such programs such as food stamps, medical and job training. we found, she said, unknown strength, faith, and resilience in our down fall and will do everything we can do to stay self-sufficient but cannot say enough about the blessed safety net. mr. speaker, we understand that even when you work hard and do things right, sometimes everyone needs a helping hand, especially when there are no jobs. i personally needed a helping hand in years past. when i was forced through many hardships i was faced with that i had to rely on for many years, public assistance and food stamps and medical to get through school to take care of my kids and get a job. if it weren't for that safety net, i would not be here today. let me ask all of you to remember the poor, remember those struggling to survi

designed to make it impossible for obama to shut down we even though he's declared that as an objective of his administration fact he promised to do it in his first year and there's another piece of legislation which is the focus of this hearing which promises to two x. to expand the role that guantanamo would would play by trying to to force new counterterrorism cases to be brought before the military commissions in guantanamo and not in federal courts in fact at these hearing started out with an offer of the scotian case involving a somali named war saami that is being who is being prosecuted in the southern district of new york and the republican witnesses all started out crying that. quickly i want to get to the issue of military tribunal and military commissions and trying suspects in guantanamo bay but first on the issue of keeping it open you know and perpetuity what's in it for these lawmakers what's in it for these people to have to find why do they want this to continue to go on forever. well i think it a really has to do with a lot of political rhetoric i mean first of all it's establishing the bu

an 18-month probationary period. we as law-enforcement administrators hope that those kinds of people who do not meet on moral and ethical standard, we hope they do not pass or get through. sometimes they do. i find it interesting that this is the -- it has been 20 years, 15 months, and two days since the rodney king incident in los angeles. when i watch that incident. -- when i watched that incident, it gave me shivers. what bothered me -- it was not only the people hitting rodney king -- but it was the other 19, 20 officers who stood around and did nothing. and allowed it to go on. that bothered me as much. and i was a police chief at the time. one of the things a new chief and parents is the department culture -- inherits is the department culture, which chief suhr is working with, whether you come from internally or externally. sometimes cultures change. what bothers me is when we see evidence like we saw, we can tell the numbers of officers who were allegedly involved in that and put that against the numbers of officers there are in this bay area region or nationally. but it makes good press. and so, what we do is -

interest in church corporatism on both sides but flagrantly on the side of democrats as a rock bottom and an administration that claimed going in that it would be something other than what it is just totally unlocked for days now we're starting to see a moment where people are looking at corporations looking at the kind of subsidies they're getting and saying wait a minute maybe we should turn back now i want to underscore this point the tea party is starting to get some criticism here people are starting to claim and you mention the david brooks piece oh this is an abnormal party it's captive to these crazy tea partiers these out of control rubes that's not what's driving this desire to treat subsidies like tyson's is grover norquist it's wall street economists it's people in the republican party who are big business friendly and don't want to lose this program this is not a tea party thing in the i'm ok but does it still mean the if you meant you know we brought up the david brooks piece again is that still man the republican party isn't a normal party anymore when it's people like covering our requests

an important issue. but, he is trying to run what he thinks of as a race-neutral administration. he is asked often by african- american reporters if he has an african-american agenda, and his answer is, at this time, my overall agenda is the best thing to help african-americans. it is sort of a sense that he is not trying to develop an agenda specifically for african- americans, and i think, politically, that is probably smart. >> when you look at presidents, it is often said that arthur like kitchen cabinets -- they are like kitchen cabinets. did any african-americans have influence? >> more recently, we have that african-americans in key positions like colin powell. before that, one example is a person named william slade. abraham lincoln trusted his judgment, and felt that he was in contact with everyday america. he actually got -- bounced each lines off of william slade, and took him with him when he spoke, including at gettysburg. he wanted to see what his valet thought about it. that is remarkable. the person he trusted with the gettysburg address, it was is african-american

nixon administration it was in his peers wanted to create programming that was pro administration and then offer that up as an option to what he viewed as of course the liberal slanted media that was already all over the airwaves now this original concept was supposed to be filmed and aired out of the white house and written and produced to be news the documents are over three hundred pages long here but i think this paragraph or one of the first pages of the treasure trove really gives you the gist of what ailes was looking for and it's actually titled a plan for putting the g.o.p. on t.v. news else wrote the following today television news is watched more often than people read newspapers than people listen to radio than people read or gather any other form of communication the reason people are lazy or television you just sit and watch listen the thinking is done for you so ladies and gentlemen i think we found the keystone of g.o.p. television ailes a straight out admits that people are lazy and they purposely go to t.v. where the thinking is done poor that the brainwashing involved in all the g.o.p. led

that you know in the administrative code there is a definition of lease and that is where the birthday had an analogy comes from, and the administrative code specifically defines least as permits. i think that is why we have this issue. again, getting back to my first point -- supervisor avalos: why would the park department want to go with that definition, knowing that is not what is about? if it does pass they're saying they cannot have birthday parties or these events in the parts anymore because we're going to be more expansive on our definition of a lease. based on those findings, we're talking about general facilities and clubhouses. supervisor elsbernd: i appreciate the desire to be more expensive in your intent as opposed to what you actually wrote, but we're going to have a very difficult issue if the measure passes. contrasting your intent, and it is good we're having this hearing so you can get that on the legislative record, compared with what the administrative code actually says. let me reinforce my first question, this is why legislation goes through the board of supervisors. supervisor kim: supervisors, i know we have a long list of folks who want to sp

the real deal with so many states actively fighting it well not quite the bush administration will use their minutes as an example they waged a five year war on voter fraud in those five years eighty six people were convicted of illegal voting out of more than one hundred and ninety six million votes cast. maybe we should be putting our time and our energy into fighting real crime and said i'm trying to keep americans from voting so for continuing to a soul's true thing the g.o.p. assaults of voting rights we are giving our tool time award tonight to governor scott walker continuing a long and rich history of voter disenfranchisement. and join me for happy hour a day of fun time is our producer jenny churchill and their. thompson is back senior editor at the atlantic so we have heard about house big spenders on hair and makeup sarah palin was very famous for that but we have a new one and i'm sure you can't guess who it is but michele bachmann there. i think it probably. is being sarcastic i guess my sarcasm but she spent nearly forty seven hundred dollars on hair and makeup in the weeks after she entered
