now, cardinal dolan's spokesman in new york these days has no comment about any of this.former wisconsin archdiocese called the payments a faster and cheaper way to get accused pedophiles out of the priesthood instead of a religious trial at the vatican which they said could traumatize victims, but we don't know what the victims felt about all this or if they played a role. >> what happens next? will we get more answers here? >> we'll certainly try to. snap, that's a victim support group, they have sent a letter to the archdiocese of milwaukee asking how many priests got this money and where that money came from. and by the way, don, we don't know whether this is a common practice of the catholic church here, and the u.s. cathric conference of bishops which dolan heads up, it has not responded to our questions either. >> susan reporting from new york, thank you very much. meantime, jurors in philadelphia hold the fate of the highest ranking cathrolic cleric for covering up sexual abuse. jurors got the case on friday. he's accused of knowingly allowing dangerous priests to

"the cardinal wouldn't allow us to announce in those days why someone was leaving" lynn replied. prosecutors also grilled lynn about the secret list he compiled in 1994 of 35 prooeszs suspected of child sex abuse, including three diagnosed pedophiles. a copy of the list was found in a safe in the archdiocese headquarters. in court, the assistant district attorney asked "how many times in your 12 years did you pick up the phone and call police? how many times?"

louis cardinals catcher joe garageiola who sad with the president as they watched the election returns roll in, said that he had seen former cardinals great enos slaughter get more upset with an umpire saying strike two than gerald ford did when he realized he was not going to win a presidential election. but he refused to ask for a recount, even though many of his supporters had implored him to do so. president ford was a man of honor, and because he had lost the popular vote, he did not want to put the country through the agony of a recount. his fourth leadership trait was humor. he had the inner confidence of someone who could laugh at himself. of course, that was important because hollywood was always trying to make him the butt of their jokes. as americans though grew to know him, they witnessed a leader whose sharp self-deprecating humor could ease some very serious situations. one of those times came after he accepted the resignation of agriculture secretary earl butts for telling an offensive joke. a little later, after being introduced at an event by bob hope, president ford w

in fact, i am the lead co-sponsor with senator cardin on the legislation. it's absolutely despicable what some people do and to say that the first amendment protects anything but threats doesn't make any sense whatsoever. the first amendment is not absolute. our supreme court should know that also. no amendment is absolute. we have libel laws. we have anti-pornography laws. i take it you support some of these things, mr. park? you support anti-pornography laws? >> yes, senator schumer. >> you support libel laws? >> yes, senator schumer. >> the first amendment is not absolute. we all know that. by the way, i believe that of all of the amendments. balancing is very important. it's easy to be an absolutist and it's wrong because life is shades of gray in just about every area and in our constitution as well. there are always balancing tests. i just think some of these practices are just despicable. sending on what looks like official letterhead. your date of voting has changed to wednesday for democrats and not republicans. to me, people like this belong in ja

i had the opportunity to discuss it in some depth with senator cardin when i visited him in his office. i have known iraqis in iraq who have worked with us and lost their lives. i've known iraqis who have gone into this program and never came out of it, they were never able to get a visa. and i have known iraqis who have resettled in the united states. it's very personal to me. as you may know, we also have to have security checks to make sure that the american people are protected. that's also first and foremost. there was a substantial backlog, which as you said in your statement, it's absolutely right. we have now over the first half of this year admitted more siv cases into the u.s. than we did all of last year. and i have been told that the numbers for the third quarter look to be substantially higher. i think this year so far the numbers is about 850. senator, he will get you the exact figures on the number of cases that are being processed now and the backlog. since i saw senator cardin, i visited with samantha power at the national security council, the national security staff

those mothers will go back to work, especially if the states have the kind of programs that senator cardin described, so i'm somewhat optimistic that as the economy recovers, poverty will drop again among this group. but keep in mind, poverty among single-mother families and among black children since they are such in single-parent families at such a high proportion, reach their lowest level ever and they're still much lower than they were before welfare reform and it's because of work.and they're still much lower than they were before welfare reform and it's because of work.they'r than they were before welfare reform and it's because of work.they w and it's because of work.they w reform and it's because of wor they we reform and it's because of worand it's. >> wasn't the earned income tax credit supposed to be part of the relief for this? and why with the institution of that would you still have? >> if mothers work close to full-time even at say $8 or $9 an hour, between the earned income tax credit, the child tax credit, food stamps, they will be above poverty if you include all those be

senator cardin? >> thank you, mr. chairman. i very much appreciate this hearing. dr. haskins, it's nice to be with you again. i served on the ways and means committee and went up against dr. haskins 16 years ago, and lost most of my arguments and provisions, but joined the majority in supporting the tanf legislation 16 years ago and i think it was the right decision to change the program and make it focused on getting people out of poverty and getting them employed. but i do think we have to acknowledge some concerns. senator bingaman already mentioned some of those issues. in a recession we would expect states to be able to respond by putting more cash out there, when the job market is more difficult, but we know that during this recession, the states didn't have that option in many cases. they just didn't have the fiscal capacity to do what we would have liked them to do, it would have had to cut other programs and they weren't prepared to do that. so i do think it does raise an issue as to how tanf works during recessions. secondly, we can all point with pride the
