i've been on "that's incredible" i've been on "the mike douglas show." thinke felt robbed by that. while earl certainly fostered it and thought he handled it, i think, in a responsible way because he truly loved tiger. i think a bit of his childhood was taken and he had some gaps and i think the manifestation of those gaps are coming to the fore now. >> rose: tell me what you mean by that. >> well, i just don't think that he fully developed all the coping mechanisms that most of us... i say most of us. we're all a little screwed up but the point being that when something was difficult for tiger, you know, outside of golf and school, other people took care of it. and he was also allowed, i think because his parents put a big burden on him to be off by himself and have his own private time and do things alone as he wanted to do them. to some extent, that's a secret life. he had a secret life all along. not say it was a pure prurient secret life but it's a way of coping that most of us are socialized and have more normal relationships and trust people more.

you're on with former virginia governor douglas wilder.s, not only am i an independent, i like to consider myself a true patriotic. i do not vote for obama. i do not vote for clinton or bush. my record is a perfect 0-10. but i -- guest: [laughter] caller: but i never ever hope nerd president to fail. sometimes i predictsed failure and sometimes i was right, sometimes i was wrong. but as a patriot would never hope for any democrat to fail. why has obama and his spokes people allow certain people in the republican party get away with saying they would hope that he fails? somebody like rush limbaugh could get away with it because he is not a patriot in any shape way or form. nonetheless, he and anybody else who publicly state that they hope the president would fail should be called out and say how could you possibly be a failure? predict failure, that's ok. hope for it, no way. . dubois no need to continue to argue with those people. there are far more people willing to sit down and work together. the unfortunate thing is we need to explain i

we have all been tutored by harry jaffa and stephen douglas and in the debate with lincoln.here are no natural rights. all men are created equal simply meant the rights of white men. whether slavery was right or wrong we will leave to people to vote it up. we don't care what they say as long as they do it in a democratic way. what is right or wrong is that that has the support of the majority and as lincoln quickly pointed out if that is the measure of right and wrong then we cut the ground out from under constitutional rights and the rights of the minority because sisson is the majority has spoken it has given us the exhaustive definition of what is right or wrong. we have no other source to which to appeal. james wilson said, one last thing, james wulsin said that america does begin with the revolution principle contained in its laws because america begins with the possibility that you can have an unjust law, that there things that are passed with all the trappings of legality but lack the substance of justice and that is possible only because agents the positive law we ca

host: can congress reach a consensus, douglas holtz-eakin?he important part of that was building trust. what has been missing is this notion a principled compromise. where the party can share their ideas and agreed on a central solution without coming back to a event where you have failed or capitulated in and your ideas. building trust for principled compromise will not be the weapon for political attacks, it is the key for success that i would like to see in important areas of policy. host: our guest is douglas holtz-eakin, former republican strategist and senior adviser to john mccain, now the president of part of two groups -- american national forum. democratic line, good morning. caller: good morning, good morning, sir. i have a question about your statements about bipartisanship and democrats and republicans and biting each other to meet with them. it seems that they did attempt in the health care process to inflate and include republicans. the strategy seems to have been the fervor with the time -- to fritter away the time. in terms o

joining us is vermont governor douglas, chair of the national governors association. for your time today. >> nice to be with you. >> shannon: let me ask you, would you have liked a seat at the table? >> well, i certainly want a seat at some table. it's not about one meeting this week, but a process over the next weeks and months. it made it clear to the president when he met with the nation's governors last week we have to implement whatever is passed by the congress. it's important to get it right and to learn from the experience that states have. a lot of states have been doing exciting things, innovating across the board, improving the health outcome for people they represent. and we certainly need to make sure that that experience of the governors is part of the process here. >> shannon: governor, you said you're not going to wait on washington to try to fix this problem and that governors will be the ones who come up with different ideas. you mentioned some of those. what else do you plan to do moving forward while the rest of the world waits to see what d.c. is

. >> douglas carswell. >> britain wisely stayed out of the euro. there is now a strong possibility that greece will default on her debts -- something that is not our immediate problem. can the prime minister confirm that, at a time when our national debt is rising fast, there is no question of uk taxpayers' money being used to bail out greece, under any circumstances or in any way? >> greece should stick by the commitments that it has made to the european union and the world. as you know, at the g-20 conference in london in april we put in place arrangements that could help countries if they were in difficulty. these arrangements are still in place and have been used by some countries. it is up to the euro area to decide what they want to do in relation to euro area countries, but there is international support available if greece wishes it. >> karen buck. >> high-visibility police patrols are the public's number one priority for reassurance and crime prevention. does he share my concern that the rise of 6,500 police in london in recent years now a

. >> tomorrow on "washington journal" douglas brinkley compares the current administration to past presidents and their administrations. james alan fox, criminology block and public pressure at northeastern university exam is the reason declines in crimes and violent crime rates nationwide, especially in cities. that's "washington journal" at 7:00 on c-span. >> date -- david miliband spoke about u.s. intelligence on the alleged torture of a british citizen. they publish details about treatment of binyam mohamed was captioned -- is captured in 2002 in -- and had all charges against him dropped in february 3rd this is about 45 minutes. >> the seven paragraphs contained summaries of american intelligence relating to mr. muhammed's case, held in u.k. files. i accept the board's ruling, which concludes a very complex and in some ways, a very unique case and have made the relevant paragraphs available on the foreign office web site. the judgment is significant not to and respect the seven paragraphs, but also principles that were hard on national security and our democracy. çóan ethiopian national,

we have all been tutored by harry and stephen douglas. the debate with lincoln.re are no natural rights. all men are created equal. whether slavery is right or wrong, we will leave it to people. we don't care what they say. what is right or wrong has the support of the majority. ms. lincoln, could be pointed out, if that is the measure of right and wrong and then we cute very ground out from under the constitutional rights and the rights of the minority. as soon as the majority has spoken it has given us the exhaustive definition of what is what your wrong. we have no other source to which to appeal. james wilson said that american does begin with a revolution principle contained in its laws because america begins with the possibility that you can have an unjust law. there are things that are passed with all the trappings of legality but without the substance of justice. that is possible only because against the positive law we can appeal to the body of principles to measure the justice of what the law has done. [applauding] >> next question. >> hello. this quest

of the supreme court it was almost unique in that regard, and lincoln in his debates with steven douglas for the senate seat in illinois before he runs for president is confronted by what we call today judicial suppress, douglas and says the supreme court decided this question about slavery and we are bound to obey the matter what. clinton develops a theory that calls on jackson and jefferson as we talked about before and he says i will obey the decision of the supreme court as it applies to the two parties. other than that i am if i am elected president has the authority to interpret the constitution himself. i may follow the president's but if i think they are wrong time and not. the reason i respect the dred scott decision and if i have to return trips got to his owner i will do that but i'm not going to return every free slave to their owners. you have to sue me each time to make me do it. >> host: and he said in the overview of the supreme court on one hand the necessity for justified unconstitutional acts and on the other hand he said he refused to believe the constitution with hel

you can structure like lincoln and douglas were you talk for hours on one topic but instead they opted for the format we have today which is a series of debates , moderators, wide-ra nging: questions and jack kennedy come when they did not know how he could do. pay did not have a reputation as a great or greater, spoke very fast and his voice would rise to a high pitch. how would he do? he did not know his record was negligible with some success with labor racketeering but was not the work force of the senate. he had other activities he was pursuing nixon has nothing to gain excepted the does not debate. another issue is that he is afraid. it seems like he will win and as we know, he did not. it is a question of when of the many ironies of the 1960 campaign where richard nixon had been healthy his whole life and kennedy had always been sick. twice and the last rites of the catholic church and was so ill and 60 days six rebutted 1960 he is feeling pretty well. his back is not too bad. added sen disease is not too bad. nixon bangs his knee on a car door it throws the strategy to campaign

this is the people that tried to shape the previous system in america at the supreme court justice douglas of 50 years ago in a case in which big oil companies were attempting to take control of independent retailers. he said when independence are swallowed up by the trust and entrepreneurs become absentee owners the results days result is serious loss of citizenship and he too was a leader in the town becomes dependent on outsiders one and then it will take the place a proprietors behold then to nobody. what he said reflects a very simple vision that america should be a nation composed of independent citizens in which prisoner is distributed out to the states and communities. and anyone who is a little bit older will remember until reagan came along, that was pretty much the way it was with retail and farming. there was a true distribution of power. today, the generation after they changed the laws, to put it into perspective, i know i am repeating myself, more than 50% of lines of business have been concentrated in the hands of the people who own and operate one company, wal-mart. how is

but, he is convinced not simply by douglas macarthur but he is so pressured by the political context of the times. if you have walked away from crossing the parallel, he would have been eaten alive by the right wing in america. as it was, his fair deal program, which he promised in the 1948 of said election, who had been put on hold because of the korean war. if he were beaten up by the right wing over this failure to cross the parallel he felt he would have no chance at all of getting the fair deal in active. of course he crosses the parallel. the chinese come into the war. they prove much more resilient than he or macarthur ever believe. they drive is backed down the peninsula. we drive them back up to the peninsula and a stalemate occurs at the 38th parallel. and the country becomes more and more disillusioned with this conflict. lyndon johnson, when he went into vietnam, he should have remembered what happened to harry truman in korea. win george w. bush went into iraq, he should have remembered what happened in korea and then in vietnam. and i will conclude by saying, the lesson

so first and briefly, given that administrator douglas is here among us, i will address their nuclear security efforts. resident obama outlined an ambitious agenda to reduce nuclear dangers in the given anything vision when he expressed america's vision and e-echo, to seek the peace and security of a world without nuclear weapons. in that spirit, the president has called for reducing developed nuclear weapons and announcing a security strategy for ratification of the comprehensive test ban treaty for negotiation of a fiscal material cutoff treaty. even as we speak, perhaps over coffee in the watcher, u.s. and russian negotiators are seeking to conclude a new start treaty. now is the president recognized in broad, a nuclear weapon free world will not come quickly. perhaps will not even be achieved in our lifetime. and he was clear that as long as nuclear weapons to exist, we must ensure that the u.s. nuclear start tile remains safe, secure and effective. and what would once again want to pause and acknowledge one of the real champions and heroes of this for many decades and our country

lockheed, in the '70s or mcdonnell douglas in the '90s. from a financial perspective, that's probably the most significant change. >> if i could just add one of the other implications is the way the department approached the marketplace. so the growth of large idiq contracts, large in the multiple award contracts, the growing the size of procurements in part is a result of the shrinking of the acquisition work force, those two factors i think both have to be addressed. one on the industrial side and one how the department goes to market, and thus over time we've lost some of the agility and flexibility that the department has, and i think both from a capability standpoint as well as a contracting standpoint, we're now seeing the results of that consolidation as new markets and requirements are emerging, and compromising a little bit on the flexibilities. >> i mean, as i alluded to at the outset, i think will are lessons learned from. it -- as we go into it and as we go into a declaration period and consolidation we need to be more vigilant

steve douglas live for us in jacksonville. thanks so much for the update.e appreciate it. >>> well, nancy kerrigan's brother we have learned is out of jail. mark kerrigan was charged with assaulting their father at home shortly before he died. kerrigan was released on $10,000 bail. 72-year-old daniel kerrigan died last month after a fight with his son. the kerrigan family issued a statement saying they're delighted to have mark back home. >> we are treating it extremely seriously. >> a public apology is what you can expect from akio toyoda when he testifies before congress today. the house oversight and government reform committee is investigating toyota's massive recall and the flaws that sparked it. in a statement prepared for today, toyoda, grandson of the company founder and current ceo, says the company grew too fast and didn't keep up with safety controls. toyota has recalled 8.5 million cars worldwide for problems related to sudden acceleration and unresponsive brake pedals. now, at first the company said floor mats got jammed into accelerat accelera

prudential douglas element found condo sales began the last decade with a 40% market share compared to co-ops and ended with a 54% market share. all that thanks to new development. check back. >>> we've got an hour to go, down 210. what do you say, peter costa? >> what do i say? well, i mean, one of the things you have to look at is we have pretty good volume. we're probably at a run rate of about 1.6 billion, 1.5 billion which is pretty good for a sell off. we have a significant selloff, but there's no volume to following it up or match it. this is volume to match it. this is falling into my whole scenario about the market is going to be retrenching back. i still think we'll have maybe 5% or 6% on the down sichltd i know that's not what the world wants to hear. i don't think it's going to happen that fast. this is happening very fast. i think for the next month and a half, you're going to see these relief rallies and it's going to sell off again. >> 5% or 6% all nm isn't that bad. it's not as if you're saying we're going to test lows. >> i'm bearish but not like the end of the world i

well, you could say you could structure them by lincoln and douglas were you go around state lines and talk for hours on one topic. but instead they opted for the format we have today which is a series of debates, moderators, wide-ranging follow-up question. and jack kennedy, well, people really didn't know how he would do. he didn't even have a reputation as a great orator. he spoke very fast and is poised to address very high levels and high pitch. how would he do? we didn't know. his record in the senate was kind of negligible. he had some success with labor investigations, but he would not say the workhorse of the senate. yet other activities he was pursuing both political and extracurricular. now, so, nixon is really nothing to gain except if he doesn't debate and that creates another issue and people say he's afraid. so it seems like he's going to wind and as we know, he didn't. it's really a question of one of the many ironies of the 1960 campaign, where richard nixon had always been healthy as whole life and jack kennedy had always been sick. jack kennedy had twice been given t

and lincoln in his debates with stephen douglas was a senate seat in illinois before humans for president is confronted by what we might call judicial prominence. senator dodd does this and the supreme court has decided this question about slavery and were bound to obey it no matter what. lincoln develops a theory that pulls on jackson and jefferson, as we talked about before, and he says i'll obey the decision of the supreme court as it applies to the two parties who come over. other than that, if i'm elected president has the authority to interpret the constitution himself. i may follow the precedents but if i think they're prone, and may not. in other words, he was a now respected to a decision only if i have to return trip out to center all do that. then that's going to return every freed slave for escaped slaves to their owners, too. you have to sue each time to make a duet. >> and he said, in the overview of the supreme court, he said necessity couldn't justify unconstitutional acts. and on the other hand, he said he refused to believe the constitution withheld the power for its own

they had lincoln/douglas. we have stewart/o'reily i guess.st on the economics and election, democrats as we talked about, are facing problems looking toward the mid term from a lot of different directions. out of all of them, the most severe is a reprise from 1994. a complete collapse from blue collar working class white americans. and the cover story in "the national journal," the number of district s dominated by whites without a college education is shrinking, but it's still the largest. and martha coakley, this isn't appreciated enough. the two best post election polls, she won college educated white voters. she lost blue collar voters 2-1. that's pretty much what happened in 1994. the big move in the electorate was among blue collar whites. and while the country is moving toward more diverse district. they have to really compete for lasting control of the house there, is still a lot of these districts dominated by working class white voters and they are very alienated. >> mika, you can go back to 1968. democrats have had trouble with wor

young people were very much interested in him and followed him when he could during his debates with douglas he was never well-dressed, partly because he did not have money enough. he wore homespun pantaloons made of half cocked in an awful and they never seemed long enough. he had bluestockings and homemade shoes with laces of buckskin. i remember his shoes, particularly because we were children our father was very particular about is keeping her shoelaces neatly tied and lincoln places were always untied. and he always wore that battered old rusty hat. his eyes were bluish grey, but they seem to change with this move. when he was talking from his eyes were dark and seemed to light up within. but often he had to set faraway look through which there was quite a strain of melancholy in lincoln. at times, he was very quiet and would not talk and apparently didn't hear what anyone spoke to him. at these times, his friends and those who knew him left him alone. his mouth was large enough prepossessing. and his shot job impressed strangers of bulldog-ish. but when he smiles, his face was transfig

from 36-inch in regiment, royal engineers, from first battalion guards, lieutenant douglas. from first battalion, lance sergeant david walker. these were men of exceptional bravery. of great courage and great skill whose loss is deeply felt. each and every one of them was a hero dedicated to their colleagues into their mission. we send our profound condolences to their families and loved ones. mr. speaker, this point i am eating in addition to my duties in the house. i shall have such meetings later today. >> i'm sure everyone in house want to associate himself with the prime minister's comments. my constituents never said in the own associate my constituents pay to bail out the banks. what assurances will my right honorable friend give me that they will give their money back, that they will not allow corporate greed and that we will not ever squandered this investment on a half-baked public offer? >> mr. speaker, first of all we have imposed a 50% national insurance tax on bank bonuses which has to be paid by everybody paying cash bonuses over the course of the next year. a

his name is tommy douglas.versal health care to suss catch juan. -- suss catch juan -- saskatchewan. nobody remembers the people who said they would never have health insurance in canada. nobody remembers all the people that fought him. he was elected five times premier of saskatchewan because the people remembered who brought them health care. maybe that's why former speaker gingrich said we can't let mrs. clinton succeed or the democrats will be in forever. well, that's what we are seeing again, folks. maybe the republicans are afraid that they'll never get back in. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman's time has expired. mr. mcdermott: nobody who didn't say yes. the speaker pro tempore: for what purpose does the gentleman from south carolina rise? mr. wilson: i ask permission to address the house for one minute, revise and extend my remarks. the speaker pro tempore: without objection. mr. wilson: last week marked the first year of the trillion dollar spending bill claimed to produce jobs. by it's been repo
