and bona tale. i asked senator leno how do you think they say happy chanukkah in italian? and he said mozel tough and i am glad to be here and i am proud to be an italian american and it's been an important part of my identity. i believe i have the soul in my heart. [applause] . so there you are. and i remember my grandfather saying when he came over on the boat he was told the streets of america were paved with gold and found out there were no streets and he had to do the paving, and i think the strongest part of our culture is "the family". we may have our dysfunctions but our families never dessert us and my family didn't know much with the lgbt issue so when i came out of the closet i thought they would be so upset i would lose them. wouldn't happen. once my son had a sign that said "i love my gay son that never calls" and that is it and i want to welcome the counsel general and his partner and actually we share a vice, and it's called napoli. i think i can say it right.

. >> at most stores there is a system called bona. it comes with a mop and a spray , and we recommend for all of the installation we do. >> good. we also talked about carpet cleaning, that is straightforward. but one thing wall-to-wall carpet can have done is have it restretched, and if it starts to fold and bubble and so on, you can't have people, and they can knock it back in and restart the carpet and get more time out of it. also, i have this done every few years, go round with blue tape, and every place you see a thing or death, you take this tape and say it needs a touch up there. just walk around and figure out where it goes and have a touch up paint day or two, and then the house look so much nicer after you do that. use blue tape, because it does not use an adhesive residue. you do not want to walk run with a paint pale wondering what needs to be punched up. i asked my wife to go around with tape, right? that works really well. sometimes you see sash cords on these wood frame windows. i brought these weights here with some ol

before we get to the news live here at 5. 306789 in new york city, alabama cemented the status as a bona fide college football dynasty after thrashing an overmatched notre dame team. 42-14. the crimson tide cruised to the third national title in just four years. they become the first team in the bcs era to win back to back titles as well. alabama's big win assures the rest of the country we won't stop hearing those taunting sec chants as this conference has now won an amazing seven straight national titles. we'll have the full highlights of the performance in just a moment. but first, turning to the news and your federal government, president obama's choices for secretary term national security team are taking shape. securing confirmation for them is going to be a bit more complicated. former republican senator chuck hagel, a decorated soldier and veteran from nebraska has been tapped as the next secretary of defense. president obama yesterday emphasized hagel's government service and his personal connections to the organization. he's now been nominated to run. >> chuck represents the bi

this seems to be a bona fide projection. now, there was some raising of the eyebrows yesterday because the lao, the legtiislative analyst's office projected we might have a $2 billion deficit that needed to be fixed. jerry brown's budget does not show that. mainly because he's repaying loans from other pots of state money that were used to balance the general fund more slowly than the analysts anticipated and he also anticipates collecting considerably more money from the elimination of the redevelopment agencies we did a couple years ago than the lae contemplated. we'll see how that pans out. >> we have to be careful we're not doing the old every silver lining has a cloud approach here. >> that's true. >> think about it. only three or four years ago, california's budget deficit was $27 billion. >> that's right. >> today it's essentially zero. more or less. and it's going to have surpluses according to the projections over the next three or four years. that is an amazing turnaround. and it seems to me that the main challenge

. >> are you disappointed that there is no bona fide tea party candidate left in the race? >> i am very happy to get behind any of these candidates because i want to have a unifying voice. we will unify as a party. we very shortly will be battening down the hatches behind whoever our bearer will be. >> my guess is, if you all sat down for dinner, the person you would be nodding with most would be rick santorum. would that be a misreading? >> i like rick santorum a lot. but i like mitt romney, i like newt gingrich and ron paul. >> who do you most agree with? >> i think my opinions were fairly forthright throughout the debate and i felt quite honestly i was the perfect candidate for america but that didn't happen and so really, quite honestly, which ever candidate it is, i will be happy to back. >> if you are so very hem mentally against the vanguard of obama care, mitt romney is the least that you would endorse because of his own health care plan? >> i think that's the positive difference i made in this campaign. now mitt romney's answer is that he will get behind a full sca

provider, and sawyer, the recently appointed customer -- customs inspector, volunteer fireman and bona fide local hero. in the clouds avoiding steam, sawyer was many his own words, now his were from a nearly fatal ordeal aboard a burning steamboat a decade earlier. in contrast to the lanky twain, sawyer three years older was a stocky round faced meza more. his sleepy blue eyes were comfortable to gaze into. his hair was a disordered haystack, a dark brown shock with cyberspace his chest was hairless and his body smooth. in comparison to twain's remarkable superstring, his mustache and goatee were unimpressive. sawyer was not completely nude. he wore a coat of smoke and soot was as the three-man play poker, the hot steam gradually washed away. beneath their bare feet, of course an ancient secret tunnel, and under that a huge rack upon which a massive four-story granite building floated. two doors down was a distillery. two doors up was the waiting room. and a half a block away blood the bloodstained ground of murderous corner. in early may, twain had departed virginia city for a two-mon

i think it is never a mistake for the far right to prove the bona fides by standing with the uber faithfuland you know, like they just throw stuff against the wall and think that sometimes things will stick and sometimes they do. this is where the most conservative laws originate and you know, where sometimes they do get things to stick. i think that's what paul ryan is hoping for. >> paul ryan has a soft spot for zygotes because he did run a marathon when he was a zygote. he's just doing it because he ain't got nothing else to do. i hope he keeps talking. >> john: it's not looking like they're trying to create jobs or anything. here's my theory on our republican friends. i have nothing against people who want to repeal abortion rights because of their beliefs. go forward. it is a free country. >> i have something against that. >> john: i have nothing against their right to fight for it. even if i don't agree with them. it is a free country. however, the g.o.p., if you have republican family or friends or if you have christian family or friends, you probably have seen g.o.p. mailings where

>> well, you know, colin powell has incredible bona fide aids with the republican party.ses his words very carefully. he does not go out on these words unless he has something to say. this is someone who watches this unfold and says things as he intends them to be. and, you know, i understand why some people would be upset about having to look in the mirror. but he is trying to get republicans to look in the mirror and say we have messed up. we need to change. this kind of reaction that he's been getting only proves his point. >> now, maria, when you see the reaction, the hostility he's called by on shapiro vile, rubin, venomous. laura ingram says he sounds more like sharpton than reagan. it's not like they're getting the poiblt. in reality, what he's saying is to get them to really clean up their act. and he said this in the context. if they're ever going to win a national election again. why would you get angry at somebody trying to help you overcome something that is defeating you? >> and why get angry at someone that is so well respected in the country and is trying t

but for all of congressman dingell's nra bona fides, if you think that is the only thing worth knowing about him, you are missing a big part of the picture. last month, congressman dingell's wife, debbie dingell published a very personal op-ed in the "washington post." "when i was about to start eighth grade, my father almost shot my mother. it was another of their many ugly fights. i got between them literally and tried to grab the gun. i will never forget that night. the shouting. the fear. the raw fear that we would all die, my brother and sisters along with my parents. my calling for help, but the police not coming. my parents were important people in town. my mother running out of the house. i locked my brother and sisters in a bedroom and pushed a bed against the door. my father broke in, took the door off the hinges and pulled the phone from the wall. he took the knobs off all the doors so no one could get out and no one could get in. we survived that occasion physically. emotionally, i'm not sure." she goes on to say "i don't have all the answers, but i know two things. decades

i don't know about that particular analogy, but clearly his bona fides as a political thinker were establishedleague and he seems to be, at least according to dana's chronically of his career, very, very shrewd. i would say in addition to him being an operator, he is also an identify l ideologue. i think he's going to have to smarten up a little biabout the direction the tea party is going to continue to go in terms of its vise grip control over the republican party because i'm not sure that can hold through immigration reform, through the series of different financial fiscal debt talks that have to occur. i think he will be smart in what he does. he has eclipsed palin. he's an ideologue in such a way that his charisma is not sort of dwarfed by that. his charisma shines through even though he has a right wing ideolo ideology. very complicated and interesting character and obviously we're going to be seeing a lot more of him. >> as you mention, i do think he presents himself with -- you can tell he's got sort of a slightly different background than some of the others in terms of sort of what he

because you have chuck hagel, which is the barack obama who as a state senator had established his bona fides as someone against the iraq war, and also against expansion i military engagement overseas. and that is chuck hagel. and the other side of that he has also been slower to fight the good fight some would say from his base perspective of shutting down guantanamo. he has made compromises. and he has also signed some of the defense authorization and the reauthorization acts which many civil libertarians find offensive. >> one of the interesting things about brennan is his comments about political controversies that have happened while he was in office. divert pretty strongly from what has happened as policy around him. he said at the time he withdrew his name from consideration in 2009 he wanted to be known as somebody who was against the iraq war, known as somebody who was against torture, enhanced techniques, specifically against water boarding. he said recently he is against the shifting of military power to the cia, treating cia effectively as an air force. he says a lot of the

he would establish his bona fides very quickly with wall street if something positive could happen relativelyont. >> let me just establish here, i'm not sure abraham lincoln could make a quick deal on the debt ceiling. >> on that note, here is the president. >> good afternoon, everybody. please have a seat. a little more than four years ago, i stood with mr. tim geithner and announced him as my first nominee to my cabinet. we were barely two months into the financial crisis. the stock marketed cratered. the housing marketed cratered as well. bank after bank was on the verge of collapse. and worst of all, more than 800,000 americans would lose their jobs in just that month. and the bottom was not yet in sight. so i couldn't blame tim when he tried to tell me he wasn't the right guy for the job. but i knew that tim's extensive experience with economic policy made him imminently qualified. and i also knew he could hit the ground running. as chairman of the new york federal reserve, he just spent several sleepless and chaotic weeks immersed in the complexities of the crisis and had been working c

and that's why i doubt their bona fides on spending. >> you have to first of all as i said before getoss that spending levels are stoo high. keith, you would agree with that, right? >> no. >> see what i mean? they're too high. >> perfect. right. >> you think this level is appropriate. 25% gdp. >> you're talking about gdp to spending -- >> yeah. >> yeah, that is too high. but that's not because we're spending too much. it's because our revenues aren't -- the reason our revenues is r. in decline is we're in a very weak recovery. we got out of the worst resgs -- >> whose fault is that? >> there was a president who came in before us. i don't know -- >> you can't keep blaming bush. you're in your second term. >> bill clinton. >> he doubled the national debt. >> his last budget was $1.8 trillion. obamas first fully owned budget was $3.8 trillion. 1.8, 3.8. >> guess what happened during that time? we had a war in iraq. we had a war in afghanistan. we had a prescription drug program. we had a hurricane katrina. >> i'm not republican. i agree with you. >> all this happened under bush's watch.
