so according to the crs memo it is likely to be subject to fines of over $1 billion.that is "b" as in "big" because of that mandate. my question and many religious organizations, in fact, is self insured. the so-called an accommodation announced that the white house on february 10th doesn't attempt, as i understand, to address the violation of self insured employers. what are your plans for accommodating self-insured employers with conscience issues like the hospital? >> mr. chairman an accommodation that the president talked about on the 10th of february would apply to the non-exempted employers who do not currently offer contraception because of religious objections. as you know, churches, church auxiliaries and parochial and catholic elementary schools and high schools are likely to be totally ex-hibited-empted exempted. >> schools are exempted? >> if a parochial school meets the definition in the irs where they have a majority of religious employees -- >> how would this impact this hospital? >> i'm getting to that, mr. chairman. the rule that we intend to propose

another thing is the fbi did not do a cross reference search they maintain a record system called crs. to make an analogy, it's like having a series of folders, and what they do when you ask for requests about yourself is look at the tabs of the folders to see if your name is on any of them. they don't go inside of the folders to see if the papers in there have your name mentioned. it's like just looking at the subject line of the e-mail and not searching the body of the e-mail. they have a policy of not doing a cross reference search. when one brings litigation to the official policy is to do a cross reference search for the first time if it hasn't been conducted. if adequacy of the search is not challenged. however, sometimes the requester is sophisticated enough to ask for a cross reference search. in those cases the law is clear the fbi is supposed to conduct a cross reference search, but in a large number of cases, it does not. when an appeal is made to oip, sometimes the oip will remand fbi and say, you need to do a cross reference search, or they have the fbi do a cross renchs

now, had he been around in 2009, he might have applied a similar cr criticism to president obama's empty leadership in the national health reform a battle that began with the progressive party campaign. he tended in his fight for health care reform, the president tended to spew exhawlexalted principles, health care was a human right and not a privilege for dubious promises of greater efficiency and cost cutting. the highest rhetorical and programmatic aspiration of the health care fight was the public option. my colleague came up with the term. it testifies i think to contemporary progressive rhetorical challenge. can you imagine, caesar and i calling the university of virginia a public option? that sort of has the -- reveals the problem. although a serious and i think in some respects very impressive effort to revive the high moral calling of progressive democracy, obama's speech also reflects the twilight of reform in some ways. the most effective parts of the address drew parallels to roosevelt's claim that massive disruptions in society and economy, the unleashing of powerful commerc
