[applause] >> first off, let me extend to my brother in solidarity, our master of ceremonies involved with these campaigns before, let's give a great round of applause. beth, a sister in solidarity, pounding the pavement for years, seeking justice against our enemies trying to destroy our freedom and democracy, and to many of you who have joined us side-by-side and rubbed shoulders before. can there be any more of an outrage? the attorney general of new york city attorney general eric holder born in queens, bringing these jihadists to nyc, adding insult and injury to those who have suffered before? to give them the pulpit. we want to honor those brave men and women in far off afghanistan and iraq, pouring hot lead into the valleys of death because of these jihadists. they don't worship their religion. the worst of the cult of death. if it is desk they want, then it is dusk we shall give them. let them go straight to hell. >> usa. >> the cia operatives in pakistan and other countries,

senator -- republican senator carl curtis decided socialism. it moves the country in a direction which is not good for anyone. and years later, we know newt gingrich when he was speaker of the house said he wanted to see medicare wither on the vine, his words. and in 1995 while seeking the republican nomination for president, senator bob dole, he said quote, i would say are in 1965 fighting the fight, voting against medicare because we knew it wouldn't work in 1965. so when you hear our republican friends say my goodness, they're making a lot of savings in medicare, this is bad for the seniors. please, please, which party has good for protect dean our seniors? it's not a matter of being bipartisan. it's just a fact. so the echoes of the past fill this chamber, but i'm convinced now in 2009 that hope and reason and determination and good policy will triumph over fear and obstruction and the status quo. let's look at the immediate and near-term changes for the better that people are going to have because our colleagues say we are raising revenues

i'm a 20-plus-year veteran, and while i was laying in the hospital in 1961, general curtis lemay camec docume, and the gist of the documents was as follows -- we will not fight you, we will buy you, if you from within the ripple -- the fee to from within within your political system, the educational system. that has all come to pass through our representatives need to the -- that has all come to pass. our representatives need to look in the mirror. i listened to your gentlemman from oklahoma, and he is so far out in left field that he could not even catch the ball if it was thrown to him. thank you very much for receiving the call. host: we were talking earlier about books and books available from book tv. we got this tweet -- both of those books are available for viewing at booktv.org. steve, a democrat, you are on. caller: good morning. i would like to make a comment on the health-care debate. the park or the defendant plans are going to be stripped away -- park where the advantage plans are going to be stripped away. i'm a democrat, but i think those advantage plans are a blessing

host: next phone call, curtis on the democratic line. caller: i am a disabled veteran, vietnam.me, they could not help me. but what they did is they refinanced my first home, but i have two mortgages. they got me in a situation where my home appraised at $200,000. then it dropped so bad to $130,000. i am unable -- in a situation where they refinanced by first loan -- my first loan guest: the good thing is that you refinanced your first mortgage and that is important. there is a new program that has ruled out for second mortgages, which would ask all of the servicers and banks to sign up to modify the second mortgage. that is a new process that the government has ruled out. gmac is one of those servicers as well as others. i urge you to keep talking to gmac and others to look at where they can help with the second mortgage as well. host: next call, scott, republican line in georgia. caller: right now, i'm unemployed, do not have any income and it seems like there is no program at all for someone like myself. i called your home number there and they could not do much for me. i con

well, again, a couple stories of two women who brought the olmstead case, lois, curtis and elaine wilson. when asked at a hearing what had changed for them, because they were no longer institutionalized, they both spoke of things that we kind of take for granted. they had new friends. they could meet new people. they could attend their family celebrations. and i like this one, they said, we could make kool-aid whenever we wanted to. simple, little things. they could go outside and take a walk in the neighborhood. they got a little dog. now they had a dog and they could take the dog for a walk in the neighborhood. something that they couldn't do in the nursing home. so that's another part of this bill, very closely aligned with the class act but it pertains to those people with disabilities right now. and we know -- again, we know from data and statistics that we have that by paying for personal care services and -- and home care services, you might say, well, that's really expensive, but we know from data that we get three for one. we can provide for everyone person in a -- for every one

senator, republican senator carl curtis said it is socialism. here is later when newt gingrich when he was speaker of the house said he wanted to see medicare wither on the vine. his words. in 1995 while seeking a republican nomination for president senator bob dole, he said quote i was there in 1965, fighting the fight, voting against medicare because we knew it wouldn't work in 1965 so when you hear republican friends say oh my goodness. they are making a lot of savings in medicare. this is bad for the seniors. please, please, which party has stood for protecting our seniors? it is not a matter of being-- it is just the fact. so the echoes of the past filled this chamber but i convinced now and 2009, that hope in reason and determination and good policy will triumph over fear and obstruction and the status quo. let's look at the immediate and near-term changes for the better that people are going to have because we are raising revenues but there's no benefits right away. let's talk about what the benefits are. and i don't have time to go into
