we don't understand the classification process. i wonder if anyone on the panel braley does in terms of the steps, who classifies? i have heard some of you use the term improper classification. who makes that decision? i have heard the term authorized leaks. what in the hell is an authorized leaks? is that a leak that you know, someone in the administration can do, but we can't? what struck me again when i chair the oversight committee on foreign affairs was we would get material that was rejected, page after page after page after page,. all you new or all you saw was the number. and that of course the next day you would read in the newspapers, but i guess that was a good leak as opposed to a badly. so, i hope, and i would direct this to my colleague from iowa, i hope with the new congress that congress conducts a series of hearings where it demands an explanation of the process itself. are we going to rely on bureaucrats, you know, at a lower level, to to do good reduction? who does all this? help me with the ministry. can anyone

this applies to certain classifications. b, m are the two main classifications. b is a business. any kind of business occupancy. m is work. places where you sell things -- mercantile. there are places that are not covered. institutions, hospitals, and schools are not covered. certain types of assembly occupancies are not covered. i think that they might be covered. and part of the reason that these other elements are not covered is that this is a nation program, this development, and hospital standards are being developed, and laboratory standards for biotech are just now being developed. so policymakers in this group said, we do not want to adopt a requirement. so we have clear standards for b and m in place. for a mid rise commercial building, if you look at our table, you will see that we have an effective date, november 3, 2008, when all of these things went into effect. they tightened up in january 1 of 2009 and continued to increase until 2012, fitting the maximum requirements. the ordinance does not end on 2012, by the way. that is just the most stringent level. but you ca

first, i think we need to clamp down on the use of classification offered.e need to reeducate our employees and diplomats to the idea of working in an environment in which you can count on nothing being secret or secure. we need to train people to think before they write. we need to rethink the concepts that there are different levels of secrecy. something should either be secret or not. in handling secret material, we need to reinvigorate the concept of limiting access to those with a need to know. we need to redesign our systems to eliminate the nodes of connection between secret and non-secret channels of communication. finally, we need to make it hard to classify information and also hard to access it. i am going to end with just one sort of extraneous thought almost. and that is, why do we save everything within the u.s. government? in my view we benefit greatly from a type of secret communication in which information is transmitted and then destroyed. the written equivalent in effect to an oral private conversation. i know historians and lawyers love a

george washington university -- the classifications are done every 25 years upon request, and i think it's very useful. i think it helps to refine u.s. policy. people in the public realm like myself and others on the panel can have more informed background and understanding of the way u.s. policy is conducted in years past. the problem with wikileaks is it is so recent and you have the same people working in the mc trying to work with the people the report was released to. i wanted to state that i still think archiving of information is extremely important. >> i would like to add a comment to that. i agree completely that there have been systems in place -- there are systems in place now -- that should have prevented the downloading of 250,000 documents. and we do have systems that aim at restricting information on the basis of need to know within the u.s. government. so somebody in iraq is not necessarily or should at least raise eyebrows if they are releasing cables to venezuela, but my concern is that investment of technology particularly through things like the internet has result

come up and that we're going to explore in our story about him, which is that it is the roll of classification in our society. i mean, pat moynihan, a hero of both of ours used to say the problem isn't leaking secrets, the problem is there are too many secrets. it's the overclassification of information. one of the things... and the fact that it's available to too many people. i think one of the things... one of the unintended consequences of the wikileaks will be re-evaluating what we classify and what we don't. i mean, there's too much that that's classified and there are too many people who have access to it. there's no doubt about that. in that way, we make julian assange possible, right? because we're hiding things that shouldn't necessarily be hidden. and we're using technology that's penetrable. and so in effect we are creating him by our own policies. so, you know, that's another way of looking at it. >> rose: did he tell you he thought hillary clinton should be fired? >> he said... i said... i asked him, i said there's a lot of people that are sort of circling around the secretary of

then the state is justified in acting upon those differences in drawing that classification. i like to also were firm to the court very quickly here -- >> nothing is done very quickly here. [laughter] >> when you are in the red, and does not mean you have that much time remaining. [laughter] >> there enough. if the court would give me 30 seconds, because this is a point that is clearly very much on the mind of the court. that is the romer case. "amendment two does more to repeal or defend these positions. it prohibits all legislative and judicial action at any level of state or local government designed to protect the name to class, because we shall refer to as "homosexual persons." and then in two was unprecedented. it was extraordinary. -- amendment two was unprecedented. standing in its own shoes with regards to the history behind it, it was unconstitutional. and would have been unconstitutional if it would have singled out and made a stranger to the lot in the class of persons. again, your honor, thank you for your indulgence. >> thank you to all of you for a fascinating

are no huge scoops, which is sort of what you would expect given the secret and low classification level. but i think in a way, in a democracy. it's newsworthy that what the diplomats are saying is not at odds with what we generally understa our foreign policy to be. and while undoubtedly therare some relations that are strained, this is sort of a scatter shot thing. and you could all -- very quickly, you saw secretary of state clinton and others usi these revelations to the advant of the united states. there were a number of leaders in the arab world who were outed as being extremely fearful and outspoken against the notion of iran having nuclear weapons. that is not a huge surprise. but it's something they tend not to say publicly and certainly not to say as king abdullah of saudi arabia said, you must cut off the head of the snake. secretary clinton while deploring the leaks and talking about the damage caused also said it's interesting to see we and israel are not alone in being fearful about this. and one other thing i should say is i think diplomats, many diplomats including some i

that's the mess with all of this classification. >> i think just briefly along those same lines there's a controversy going on now where the congressional research service, people who work there who are charged. they are told they cannot access any of these documents which are on every website in the world. to inform them as they write their reports. they cannot refer to any information that's in any of them in their reports to congress. presumably they can go home and turn on their home computer and have full access to it. but then they can't acknowledge in their reports they've had full access to it. it is a pretty confusing and sometimes ridiculous system. >> anybody else have a question? >> aside from the embarrassment, it seems to me there are going to be two very likely consequences. the first has to do with freedom of speech and the first amendment. the second combining what john calls these anarchists cyber people with something like stux net. julian assange hired a top notch british attorney. that will be an interesting court case. i wonder how you come out with the issues of t

other evidence to see if there are indication that anything might have been thought about the classification of this obvious income or benefit to most people. and the evidence points to a january, 1993 letter written to to the resort in which chairman rangel said, i hope you can provide me with a copy of the contract we have with the resort, which includes the third bedroom addition. what equity has accrued and if there is an outstanding balance. he wasn't sure if there was an outstanding balance because even though he may not have been paying the mortgage, it was getting paid from somewhere. and even though he apparently did not realize that by others paying his mortgage for him, that it was income. he said in this letter, his words, as i mention to you, the house ethics committee requires the disclosure by members of congress of any assets and unearned income. and while i enjoy a good relationship with the committee's chairman, it certainly would be politically embarrassing if i were unable to provide an accurate accounting of my holdings. apparently at the time he wrote the letter, he rea

for the new classifications, the same person would have to weigh 237.ve a medical condition like diabetes, even lower. like around 200 pounds. >> why is that? >> if you have those conditions, you're at greater risk of dying from being overweight. they're expanding the indication. >> of course, the surgeries are not without side-effects. >> that's right. it is very effective in the population. but 90% of people had side-effects. half of those were moderate or severe. nausea, difficulty eating and reflux. long-term studies, 30% of people have the surge undone over time. and some have died. >> rich, we know you're calm and easy-going. it's rare to get you fired up. there's something you uncovered in the review that has you upset. >> as we've looked at this and who is reviewing this for the fda to decide whether it should be approved, the woman who is heading the committee, dr. karen woods, she owns stock in allergan, the company that is putting this forward. i asked fda this morning about this, and she will not be allowed to vote on this. committee chairs

-- de classifications are done every 25 years. i think it is very useful. it helps to define public policy, and people like myself and others on the panel that have more informed backgrounds in understanding how u.s. policy was conducted in years past. the problem with wikileaks is that is so recent and we at the same people working in the embassy trying to meet with the same people it was released to, which makes more difficult operational and for other reasons. but i still think that archiving of information is extremely important. >> i would like to add a comment to that. i agree completely that there have been systems in place, there are systems in place al, that should have prevented the downloading of 250,000 documents. we do have systems that aimed at restricting information on the basis of need-to-know within the u.s. government. if somebody in iraq is not necessarily, or should raise eyebrows if they start accessing cables from venezuela -- my concern would be the advancement of technology, partly through things like the

search engine that you could limit by time, by the embassy from which the cable was sent, by the classification level and other criteria. we started doing searches. you try to think of keywords and subject areas that might be newsworthy. and you would plow through everything in the last few years. this is a time wise, this collection -- how many people did you have doing that? >> in terms of people reading cables, there were 15 and another two or three people. is a ld say that there handful from the 1960's, 1970's, and 1980's. the majority is from the last three years. there is far more brazen and it cuts off presumably because of the circumstances from which it came. >> you go through that and you get it down to how many? >> everybody came up with a different way of doing this. one of the things we wanted to look at was afghan corruption. and so, my way of looking at that was to narrow it to the last few years of cables from kabul and use words like " bribes" or corruption -- "corruption" . >> before you published them, what did you do with them? >> we had an arrangement to publish this on a s

there is a certain absurdity to a lot of classification, and you can get that administration that feels politically hostile towards the media at a moment and if you haven't acted like that that is available court prosecutions, the potential for mischief is great. i have not seen demonstrated the compelling case that without it we have suffered some sort of a grievous harm in damage through the ages. in the case of wikileaks, who are you going to prosecute? i heard just sunday on television, a republican campaign strategist said julian committedas create treason, but he is not a u.s. citizen. i do not know how you commit treason when you are not a u.s. citizen. i think this would be a recipe for a great deal of harm. >> it is ironic that to the guardian of the british officials would not be criticized. >> i want to thank everyone for being here. we have run out of time. they do so much. -- thank you so much.
