and his mother was victoria soto oldest child -- victorious oldest child, et cetera, et cetera. is also the heir to the german throne and he was subject to the imperial aptitudes and swagger and so forth of this marks germany. germany became in that generation from the time that williams grandfather became emperor after the collapse of france, became the greatest industrial and military power on the continent with a great army. but i wholly agree, she said it better than i could, that all these factors, and osha, military and so forth, were at

americans were kind of, et cetera, et cetera. and wilson took it to congress and they voted overwhelmingly for war. the guys have actually said to the naval staff, to his naval staff, all this produced, precipitate an american response? the chief of the navy said, i promise your majesty, not one single american soldier will set foot on the continent of europe. in november 1914, there were 2 million in france, only 600,000 of them were in the -- at the front, and 2 million more in the united states training, everybody had been bloodied. they were dying in the hundreds of thousands. and he said, we've got to quit. >> we have time for one more very quick question. >> conrad harper. the question for you is, have entered the age only of opinion with respect to have this war began? i asked the question in light of von ranke's great observation that history is to be found in the archives. can you determine what the real facts are based upon available information? or shall we always be disputing these issues? >> i don't think there's muc

, et cetera, most on syria. so there are some ingredient which is make us theme it can be a success. but obviously obstacles are enormous and there are some players who don't want to see any settlement at all, who want syria to disintegrate, who want syria to become a hub of international terrorism. so it's -- we are working, trying to overcome tough obstacles. >> rose: we conclude with a conversation about the future of turkey with james jeffrey, dexter fill kins, elmira bayrasli and benjamin harvey. >> erdogan has basically prosecuted, arrested or otherwise marginalized huge numbers of the turkish elite and that's -- so what's happening now that that the vanguard, the sort of turkish vanguard that has done this led by erdogan is starting to crackup itself and that's basically it's split into two lanes so i think what's so -- what's troubling to me is that turkey has been a very stable place and a democratic place for the last -- erdogan has brought a measure of stability to that country it hasn't seen before a

basically we're going to be like a hub where people can come to get services, help, information, et ceteraat you see here on this table are a whole variety of did you ever rent things from tools, some walki-talkies. this helps people know what is going on in their neighborhood. over here you have a whole variety of water and canned goods. we're really hoping that people will stock up for themselves at least for the first 72 hours if not more. i know that i have a ton of canned food and other sorts of things such as water within my own home. and everybody should, but there's going to come a time where people are going to end up running out and needing more. so, that's what we've got right here. >> so, this neighborhood support center, this doesn't look to be a major city sponsored fully stocked space. it can be a small commercial space, even somebody's garage as long as they have the information, a guide of information, who to call for what, communications equipment, some power, have a generator. >> that's right. >> thinking of lights and charge your cell phones and so on. and probably be o

it is about the environment whether it be china or russia, et cetera. also for earnings. some of these technology stocks like ibm offered a pretty good dividend. can they maintain the framework, or is there this headwind, secular headwind that is changing the company forever? so i think the s&p 500 behind me is being built up right now with the expectation that is technology is going to do well. not nearly as well as big banks. david: larry i have to break in. we have earnings coming out on several companies including ibm. jo ling kent, those numbers are in. how do they look? >> dave, we have pretty good

, et cetera, and even at at time at slow to no growth in our population to see just within a few years the educational uses of these properties should give us pause to think about balancing our obligation to use the public resources as well and for the advantage of the public and also be cognizant all the time that schools' needs and the district's needs are going to evolve over time, so that's interesting, and then i wanted to -- like following up on commissioner norton's comments talk a little bit about the properties that are left, and i think that we really do need to do a lot of community discussion and talk to the mayor's office to -- not only the mayor's office of housing but to the board of supervisors and others and think how we want to have the public discussion about these things, so for instance seventh and loton was part of a previous lond trade with the city, not so much to our advantage, and so the restrictions on this property i mean actually at one time years ago we had -- which i have available. i don't know if you have ever seen it. were you here -- we have a concept

, et cetera. so the so-called meta data program. so the president said, i'm going to take all that data and put it somewhere else. where else? >> first i thought it was very important that the president late out, there was no abuses, this wasn't an illegal program. this wasn't a rogue agency. >> every time i hear someone say th that, i think that that's because the people that are there know they shouldn't do that. but an agency is only as trust worthy as its employees. and we all know from edward snowden, that can change in a moment. >> what they didn't understand, certainly snowden didn't understand is all the sources of oversight. even the independent review board found no abuses, legal program. the problem was the sensationalism of a rogue agency, or domestic spying, none of that was true. so i thought it was important that the president laid that case out. hey, this was not true. you may not like the fact that this happens, but this was a legal program. there was plenty of oversight on this p

, et cetera. that's way to get exposure and yahoo! will get weighted down. >> as we mentioned we've got internet analyst bob peck here in studio this morning the details. that's next. plus ceo dave barger, and bad weather which were seeing all over the place these days could throw some cold water on the stocks. stay tuned. let's say you pay your guy around 2 percent to manage your money. that's not much, you think except it's 2 percent every year. go to e*trade and find out how much our advice and guidance costs. spoiler alert. it's low. it's guidance on your terms not ours. e*trade. less for us, more for you. >>> welcome back to "fast money" where new york is getting ready for the super bowl. let's bring in bob peck who's waiting for a conference call. bob, what are the highlights? >> the takeaway is what we're seeing. they gave us a couple of numbers on the call. one is pricing is up 92%. 92%. impressions were down about 8% or so. they couple that with guidance for 2014 with expenses at 35%, 40%

internationally when you look at people's behaviors, et cetera, there is less confidence in the cloud internationally than the u.s. which is an interesting phenomenon. the cloud is an important element but personal storage is a big important part of the fabric. >> what do you think about the companies moving to the cloud and how they evaluate that? >> i think the enterprise is very cautious about the sensitive data, the personal data that gets exposed into the public cloud so they have their private cloudst that maintain perhaps financial details of their customers or personal attributes and facts about the customers. and then they put more of the commercial marketing or the less sensitive, security sensitive elements of data into the public cloud so you access it through some of the public cloud providers like amazons and microsofts and yahoos. >> you went with some of the companies -- give me a sense if you are selling maybe millions of storage devices for one of the data centers versus like an individual company, the prices of those a lot lower? >> the value of storage in the cloud

uh, et cetera. don't sweat it. all of those things can be pretty much taken care of by eating a good diet. we all know what i mean about a good diet. i try to eat healthy and i drink my eight glasses of water a day and i try to get my sleep and i use raw essential skin care and rms beauty for my make up. i also make sure i rub moisturizer on my face three times a day if i am not wearing make up and twice a day when i am wearing make up. and you guys, month coping out. no coping out. you can moisturize too. it is not just for the ladies. i hope this helped. it ep hed me. if you have a question don't hesitate to ask. contact me via twitter or facebook at the addresses below. one of your questions may end up on our show. that's all for today. i hope you've learned a lot. i know i have. until next time, i hope you are learning to be more of a healthy you. >>> welcome to "america's news headquarters." a central selling point of obamacare is under scrutiny. one goal of the law is to provide insurance to t

certain rooms that you and i cannot go or if you want to go, we have to glove up, put the gowns on, et cetera, and the truth is remove these devices, if somebody comes in with a catheter they don't need it, get them off the catheter, stop using all these knee-jerk antibiotics. >> how do you tell if it's sterilized correctly? >> when you go to someone's office, you got to pay attention to what's going on in the office. i have a great staff, sterilization is extremely important. so we use cidex which is the chemical we use to clean up equipment. now that they're sterilizing this in that pocket in chicago, this will disappear. >> they will get it under control, but i can't tell you how many people when they come into the office, if they see something suspicious, you go to the dental hygienist they put their hand in the glove and then their hand go sbosz the trash can. are you. >> you shouldn't be afraid to tell your doctor you're not being sterile. i just want to emphasize a point, it is only in very severe people, but it's also colonizing people that are healthy, so you may not get sick, but we

, et cetera, the total number of people -- it's a nice symbol. it doesn't change very much. the things the epa does that changes a lot. that's a different issue. but just strikes me that he has no new authority today that he didn't have the day he was sworn in back in his first term. and so if he suddenly finds 23 really good things to do, if i were a liberal, i'd be asking the question, so why didn't you do those? >> i actually thick the way the president suspects approaching it is the right way. to say look, i called for an increase last year, he wants congress to act in this way. unfortunately he's tried very hard and they're not acting. he's taking the right approach which is to say just because the congress is dysfunctional doesn't mean i'm ceding my authority as president. i'm going to make change where i can, improve the lives of the american people wheric. obviously better to pass legislation on a federal minimum wage or minimum wage for everyone, but if they don't act, he should. >> i agree he should act. the house republicans are meetin

how do i deal with 4g, et cetera, et cetera. whatever we want -- they can't help it they can go to the blue screen of death. it's got to operate seamlessly, flawlessly. yet on the other hand, we want to be responsive to our customers, the ultimate consumer that's going to purchase those features and function. all of that is possible but we need to do it in such a way that is effective and it's affordable and we truly can benefit from it. we don't want to have our technologies legislated or mandated that drives the solutions that ultimately won't and out. because we won't survive one failure. we want it to be done right. and second grade the industry needs the opportunity to continue to innovate so that we get proven solutions that work and we understand the ramifications. so we are on that pathway, but in the meantime we have got the smartphone. we've got the tablets. now we have eye watches and wearable devices. all those things that present new challenges to us. >> one of the things i would like to offer up though is at least

, et cetera. so the so-called metadata phone program. the president essentially said, i'm going to take all that data and put it somewhere else. where is somewhere else? >> that's a good point. two things about that speech. first, i thought it was very important the president laid out, no abuses, this was in the an illegal program, this wasn't a rogue agency. >> can i stop you? every time somebody says something like that, i think that's because the people there are -- believe that they shouldn't do that. but an agency is only as trustworthy as its employees. and as we all know from mr. snowden -- although he was a contractor -- that can change in a moment. >> no, i understand. but what they didn't understand -- certainly snowden didn't understand -- was all the levels of oversight. a court reviewed it, congress reviewed it, doj reviewed it, the ig reviewed it. even with the independent review board found no abuses. legal program. the problem was the sensationalism of a rogue agency or domestic sp

. >> look, speaking of, we talk about the financial crisis, people being responsible, et cetera, et cetera, we're a couple weeks away from hitting the debt ceiling once again. and once again we've got the republicans and, oh, we're going to stick in the keystone pipeline and obama care. do you think that the republicans are once again going to stick their fork in the socket of putting full faith and credit up to the break or can we do normal business in this town? >> i'm glad you brought that up particularly keystone pipeline. there you create jobs and doesn't cost one penny to the federal government. about energy independence. it's about creating jobs right now. vital infrastructure. to answer your point we have big time debt and deficit that we have to address. you want to get the economy going -- >> you want to risk this again. >> get some reforms and savings to get that deficit and debt under control. >> come on, now, say it with me. are you -- i'm getting nervous because you're supposed to be the sane one when the crazy one was in the house. you don't sound like you're willing to say

there for income equality, minimum wage, et cetera. then you need to change the -- >> schieffer: how did this go so wrong? when you stop and think about it, the fact that people ought to have health insurance, if poor people can't afford it they ought to be able to get some relief on that. that would she'll to be a universal truth. >> corporate america was -- >> schieffer: most tangled up. i've never seen anything like the way -- >> historians will write memorable books about how this got so messed up. how the president left the details to people who couldn't execute them is the biggest mystery of all. there was a consensus back in tuwaitha something needed to be done about the delivery of health care services. what we monkeyed with how health care is finance chad i think was a mistake. and i think you look back on debate in 2009, president really didn't have the votes, he had to jam it through with some legislative maneuvers because the congress wasn't quite ready. we're living with the after affects of that. thinking about this year

hopefully with efficiency and some behavior changes and better maintenance and better equipment, et cetera, maybe we can get that -- maybe we can cut our energy use in half, which would get us to 14% solar. so, we still have -- we'd still have 86% to go. so, we've got -- we're up against it. we have to figure a way through this very challenging situation. >> is that 7% of peak, cal? 7% of peak? >> 7% of giga watt hours. so, it's not peak. it's total -- total usage. >> um-hm, um-hm. one thing to the point that commissioner wald had raised was that monica, because she's super diligent about all this stuff and she's amazing and we don't thank her enough for everything that she does, was able to get the communication and worked on it with cal, got the communication over to sfpuc commission. >> thank you. >> just in time before their meeting in which i think we had this really direct statement. dear sfpuc, we believe that 100% renewable energy is the number one climate change discussion topic of the year, and that was received well. i understand that the commission discussed that and wants to p

, et cetera, i think there are not a whole lot of things that we locally can do to support our tenants you unfortunately because so much of legislation ~ around tenant right happen at sacramento and it forces our local body to be incredibly creative around thinking about how we want to preserve the current use of the housing stock that we have. so, i think for that reason i would support moving it forward today. i would support maybe taking it after public comment if folks want to take the additional time to understand the legislation or voting this today and hopefully having an additional week to work with supervisor avalos's office to be able to feel comfortable supporting or not supporting it next week. so, i mean, that would just be my suggestion for now. but i do just want to recognize, i think that the situation that we are facing here in the city is incredibly challenging and we are really focusing a lot of different tools that we have to preserve the existing uses of the housing stock that we have today. and i think that this legislation is just one of those tools. >> superviso

obviously, hall david needed to make some changes in the lyric, change the gender, et cetera.you find yourself whistling in the shower, blah, blah, blah, and he sent me "close to you." >> oh, my god, yeah. >> which i was going to do as a follow-up to -- >> tell me about the story carpenters, you brought up "close to you." you were a fan from the start. >> i learned something from sam cooke years ago, and he said, man, people are listening to a cold piece of wax, and it either makes it, and if it gets you, great, if it doesn't, move on. so that's the way i listened all the time when i was auditioning, you know, new groups. so this tape came on. i was in my office, sitting back, and all of a sudden, karen's voice sounded like it was, like, right next to me on my lap. when i signed the carpenters, and for the first eight months or so, they were cold. >> mm-hmm. >> they didn't sell records, and my own -- the people in my own company were thinking, man, why did you sign these kids? too soft. too middle of the road. radio is not attracted to emthis. and i gave them "close to you." a

and said that you shouldn't have too much cre on your balance sheet, et cetera, et cetera. that process went through, took more than two years of negotiations and discussions and sending it out to banks and banks have time to implement. in order to make this work, the macro prudential things work we'll have to have a more nimble system. that is a big part of this. so the answer to the question bill raised is that, i'm sure there were some things that could have been done but unless everyone collectively knew what was going to happen and was willing to work together cooperatively to take the necessary steps it is not obvious that you could have avoided it. maybe one more question. >> larry sideman, university of delaware. you rightly expressed concern about the premature phaseout of fiscal stimulus at the end of 2010. do you think in future recession it might be helpful if the federal reserve were able and willing to give a cash transfer to the treasury so congress could sustain fiscal stimulus further without additional borrowing? >> i don't think i'm going to go there, no.

on our policy-making, et cetera, et cetera. we don't know if people have died because of this.ea if someone within the cia ranks may have died because of this. what kind of penalty could you possibly foresee as any kind of discussion if this man were to come back and plead guilty. >> i think he needs to spend several years in prison for what he did. >> several, many, many? >> i think several, like five or ten or thereabouts. here is why. i don't want to give him the break that it sounds like we are giving him. if, in fact, he does have a pocketful of state secrets, national security secrets, he is a dangerous combatant that we need to bring back into the fold and deal with. if he has nafgs could still hurt us, national security takes precedence. >>er hoo is what i shere is wha to that, that's out. most people think he gave files to glen greenwald. who knows what other kind of hackings happened. what's the up side to the u.s. government at this point, really, to protect from further leaks? >> to mark's issue, that's what an up side could potentially be. the united states governm

et cetera, et cetera. that happens in may when steven fulop is first elected mayor. the day he's elected, chris christie calls him that night. the next day he gets a follow-up text from the governor's right-hand man at the port authority. right in it's all good. smiles, everyone. smiles. that was may 14th and may 15th. by the next month, by june, those offers of help to the new mayor in jersey city are not just platitudes. not just being nice. not just polite anymore. they are going into motion. the new mayor's due to be sworn in on july 1st. governor christie is planning on speaking at his swearing in. and the governor's office gets in touch, again, ahead of the swearing in. how can we help? what can we do for you in jersey city to make your mayoralty and transition period a success? you want to know who from the governor's office gets in touch with jersey city? yes, her, bridget kelly. chris christie's deputy chief of staff. the one who before the end of the summer would be ordering up traffic armageddon for the little town of ft. lee. well, this e-mail from june 2

et. cetera.the real key here is going to be with the president karzai and the government of the afghanistan. the nato nation and the united states have offered support in 2015 and beyond, and that is being deliberated right now in the capital kabul with president scar i did. i hate to give you a wait and see. i don't want to speculate. we have to wait and see what the political leaders of the various countries decided. over. >> tom. general tom with npr. you mentioned that the afghan forces sacrificed a lot this past fighting season. could you give us a rough sense of the casualty rate for the afghans. how many did they lose per month during the fighting season? maybe compare it to last year. since you said the taliban lost the fight this past fighting season, and the afghan were attached overmatch for the taliban, a lot of people would listen to that americans and maybe some people in this government and say why are the u.s. forces doing that in the first place. why can't they leave now? >> yeah

, et cetera, et cetera. i think he should try to hang on for about a month or so and see what happens and try to get his friends at the rga to keep him there because he just doesn't need another bad news story right now. >> i completely agree with that, e.j. i think he's absolutely right to go to florida. he's got to pretend everything's okay as much as possible. there are some bumps in that road. he's got his inauguration tomorrow. "wall street journal" is reporting tonight that they're having trouble selling their tickets to one of the inauguration events, that the demand just isn't there like it was the last time. and let's listen to what chuck todd said this morning on "morning joe" about what he heard from florida this weekend. >> joe, i heard the same stuff from republican donors that you did down in florida. they say that the guy they met this weekend is a shell of his former self, he was not himself. if that's the guy that's going to be nationally, his 2016 hopes are done. >> karen finney, there's a

, et cetera. negotiations and discussions and sending it out to the banks and the banks have time to implement it. in order to make this work, macroprudential think star, you're going to have to have a more nimble system. i think that's a big part of this. the answer to the question that bill raised is that, i'm sure there are some things that could've been done, but unless everybody collectively knew what was going to happen and was willing to work together cooperatively to take those necessary steps, it's not obvious that you could have avoided it. >> maybe one more question. >> you rightly expressed concern about the premature phaseout of this ghosting was at the end of 2010. do you think in a future session it might be helpful if the federal reserve were able and willing to give it ashtrays for to the treasury so congress could sustain this ghosting was further without additional borrowing? >> -- fiscal stimulus spent i don't think i'm going there. [laughter] first of all, that's not going to

, et cetera, et cetera.f you are in the dark about this, which i take chris christie at his word because he is our friend and we know him very well, that's how you respond to this. not with a statement. >> i think he is running out of time. he has got to do that now. there are still lingering questions because people who resigned, i believe, on december 6th. why? so in the days of gridlock that followed, emergency vehicles were reportedly delayed in getting to four patients one of them folveg a 91-year-old woman laying unconscious who later died and the mayor of ft. lee complained about kids getting to school for the first day of classes and his complaint prompted this text exchange between an unknown person and wildstein. is it wrong that i'm smiling? was texted to wildstein. no, he responded. the unknown person wrote, i feel badly about the kids, i guess. they are the children of beuono voters. last night, mark spoke about the incident and was asked about some of those e-mails. >> he has not reached out fo

it was supported by the petroleum industry because it helped sell gas, et cetera. but the president was wise enough to say we're going to pay for it and we're going to be able to expand, and we can't contemplate america without the road systems that begin in the eisenhower administration. the productivity, our lifestyle. and we are at a point now where if we don't move quickly and thoughtfully, we could just begin to slowly, or not so slowly, unravel our productivity, our lifestyle, you know, our ability to function. thank you very much, gentlemen. >> senator johanns. >> thank you, mr. chairman. and thank both of you for being here today. i come from a rural state, too, so i have a couple of questions relative to that. i did want to follow up on where senator reid was headed. mr. rogoff, not asking you to state a policy position on a preferable way to finance, finance this area in the future, but i would each receive no just in your mind, what options might be available for congress to look at? again, i'm not asking you to state a preferred course. >> there's a wid

we put out minutes, et cetera, et cetera.he '70s that exempting monetary policy decisions was needed in order to prevent congress from using gao audits as a tool for influencing short-term decisions made by the fed. so, there's a balance there, as you point out between independence and transparency. what the so-called audit the fed legislation in various forms would do is remove that exemption. that's only thing it would do basically. doesn't do anything else. and removing that exemption, again, would mean the gao could come in, the day after an fmoc meeting and second guess the fmoc's decision which would be inconsistent with any view of central bank independence. i think the balance where it is now is appropriate. i think i would resist giving congress day-after authority to second-guess our policy decisions. and i think it would be bad for the economy if -- if the public and market makers, market participants, thought that essentially whatever the fed did was subject to immediate reversal or substantial pressure by the con

when it comes to the issue of alcohol and pot et cetera.rawing this, a lot of parents don't feel that way and don't appreciate the president of the united states coming out and sharing that point of view. this same president called the owner of the team that hired michael vick. he is congrating a football player who had dog fighting on his property. >> i'm waiting for lz to jump in. >> you are going to let me respond please? >> they ask a man a question. do you expect him to say no comment? >> let me finish, i let you finifi fini finish. he was hedging what he said if you read the interreview what he said about football. if someone asked me what my profession. >> >>: you let your child do x, y and z. and in regards to marijuana. the president has not said anything that the medical community has not said as well. he is not out going making comparisons and telling people what they must do. the reason why the mayor wan na is on that level, is because president nixon didn't like the drug. there is nothing wrong with him saying what science said

in country music, there has been responsiblings, due et cetera siblings, due et cetera. >> if you areve matching. >> yeah. that's what we say. ♪ bye-bye ♪ i am going march marry me agirl abo with bright blue eyes. ♪ >> we learned from an early age that music was a fun thing. the thing about it is that it's totally acceptable. you can have a huge, huge group of people playing it. and all that we have fun together is communal. ♪? >> in fact, you don't even need to know the tune. you can learn it on the fly. person? >> it's why a lot of people become musicians so they don't have to talk at parties. it's extremely comfortable. you have been there for hours and be socializing but you don't have to talk. it. >> there is like a community of people around the world who play this music and love it. >> we love playing for people. >> that's really the most fun. it's so great when you are playing and it looks like people are enjoying it and then that comes back to you. you get more energy. it. >> so far, we made $1. >> but we are always playing for each other. we try to crack each other. >> we ar

republicans have taken over the years is they don't care as much about poor people as democrats do, et ceterawe're seeing some big name republicans who are coming out, maybe who also want to run for president like senator marco rubio of florida. now they are saying it's time to declare war on the poverty failure. listen to the senator. >> after 50 years, isn't it time to declare big government's war on poverty a failure? instead of continuing to borrow and spend trillions of dollars on government programs that don't work, what our nation needs is a real agenda that helps people acquire skills they need to lift out of poverty and pursue the american dream. >> do republicans need to be focusing on this to try and get votes they desperately need? >> look, as we've already been discussing here in your hour, the democrats, president obama, the democrats plan on making this the centerpiece of their midterm election campaign. with their friends in the med yar -- media, i'm sure it will be part of the election sz. marco rubio positioning himself not just for the midterms but presidential election in

trying to be consistent in our expectations from capital allocation, et cetera. and we'll let rest take care of itself overall. if anything, i would say perhaps as you mentioned, we've had a very nice run up if you look at three, six, or 12 months, perhaps as good as it was beaten rays wasn't good enough based on the expectations. then you throw-in the overall market, certainly in the short term nothing we're going to worry about. >> let's talk about one area that i was pleased to see. it had been something you and i had talked about the last three or four quarters that was not good in our emea, you have been dealing with weak demand. i kept saying when it is going to happen? you had revenue growth at 31% in constant dollars? >> that's right. >> how is that possible? >> jim, that was in our i.t. business. two components and computers. our components business in europe is doing better overall. they had their third quarter in a row of year over year growth. and this quarter, they got to double digit year on year growth. our i.t. business had been lagging and actual

these guards wait until likes out and take select women into close et cetera and officer cubes and havehem perform a wide variety of sexual acts for potato chips and hygiene products. >> go ahead, victor? >> this is a problem in several prisons in the state of alabama. the biggest issue or question is why the officers feel comfortable in doing this, why they feel they can do it and get away with it. it the real answer to the question because it's done so much. they've gotten away with it so much, the culture of corrections is to allow this type of thing to happen. when it happens, they cover it up. that's the problem in the state of alabama that happens to these women. it's a corrupt system. i understand that you made allegations that you were a victim of a sexual assault at another nearby prison. is there anything you can tell us about that, and what happened there. >> yes, there is. there is pending litigation. i'm not at liberty right now to make any comments as to that litigation. you would have to draw it to those questions to victor saying that i decided to speak out. i seen it ha

and what it suggested to me, i didn't want to be seen with tampering with witnesses, et cetera. when you say you're prepared for a protracted legal battle, are you expecting one? >> i'm hoping that we don't have one. this is about public trust. and public trust was destroyed here because of somebody in the governor's administration. >> you're a democrat and you want to get back at chris christie for his presidential ambitions, come on. >> this started out as an investigation into the operations of the port authority. while we were doing that, they closed lanes out of fort lee. we see this e-mail from pat foye, saying it's violates operations, let's look at that. we follow it piece by piece, and when we look up, we're in the governor's office. we didn't want to be there. >> why not just subpoena the governor? >> well, i think it's premature. we know bridget kelly sent the e-mail to david wildstein. those are two people, why would you send this and how did you know what it meant? but there are other people we need to talk to first before we can make any conclusions. we don't want

and this is to accommodate a larger home, a garage, a workshop, et cetera. so if you even took the full 116 foot depth that the lot represents, it would only leave 16 percent for the rear yard open space, which is basically just the alley itself. we do not believe this variance application meets the 5 required findings under planning code section 305. specifically, there is no hardship or practical difficulty that justifies essentially 100 percent lot coverage or even if you consider the ally the unbuildable portion. lot, that's 84 percent coverage. no other home in this neighborhood has or has ever proposed the mass and scale of this project such that finding no. 3 could not be met and last we believe the variance should not be approved unless there is a reduction in the main area to accommodate sufficient rear yard building space so we do not create a detrimental precedent for the neighborhood. thank you for your time. >> hello, good afternoon, commissioners, thank you for this opportunity. my name is james clamerty, i live at 45 219th street. i am one of

, et cetera, i had hoped that the president would actually stand up at last night's state of the union and say this is what america is supposed to be, but this is what it is not. and talk about how he personally as a black man has been treated as president. >> why do you think he didn't? because david corn was on last night. he took the let's rip the scab off. let's point out what it is. my view was i'm trying to understand the politics of the president. i think he's mild mannered because that's what he is. >> why he. >> and also black men can't yell and all that crap. but i also think that he -- i also think he's calculating saying look, i'm trying to get immigration through the next year or two, trying to get minimum waning through, unemployment through, these things i care about. i might be able to shake them loose but if i go crazy at them and start attacking them personally and saying they're bad guys i'll never get any of them. >> well -- >> he's still hopeful of getting something done. >> he's still hopeful. is he smart, shrewd, calculating and hopefully, that's what he's thinki

, et cetera, et cetera. >> right. >> what did you think when you were reading the piece?nd talk about why it's a crummy job. >> i think you run for president and the entire objective is so humanize your candidate to show the kind of person they would be be, how they would transform the office of the presidency. that is our romance novel, right, in american politics? we want to fall in love with our candidate. every single thing about being president is dehumanizing. the scrutiny of the press corps forces all of them into near isolation. the low gistics of the white house, that place and structure is inflexible. you have to be in the oval office on. all of the appearances of the white house and the presidency take place in very rigid ways. i think that what happens to all of them, particularly the modern presidency as it's carried out under the 24-hour glare of the media, is an incredibly isolating experience. >> it is inhuman. >> we do that. we do humanize the president. >> what i'm still stunned is by you and mckinnon and ari fleischer. not a guy that sort of measures hi
