garrett. mr. garrett: i yield one minute to the the gentlewoman from the gentleman from minnesota. mr. kline: i rise in strong support of h.r. 2560, cut, cap and balance act. the severity of our nation's fiscal crisis cannot be overstated. more than 14 million americans are looking for work. meanwhile federal spending continues at an unprecedented pace with an average of $4 billion added to our country's debt every day. we need to encourage economic growth and investment. instead, leaders on the other side of the aisle are pushing reckless policies, more red tape and taxes to pay for their irresponsible spending spree leaving job creators frozen by uncertainty and fear and risk our future prosperity. at a recent round table, a small business owner told me, quote, the government is out of control, it's too big and i don't like it, closed quote. well, i don't like it either and it's costing our country jobs. it's time for washington to do what's right. we need to make the tough choices necessary to get our nation's fiscal house in order. no one said it would be easy, but it is certai

garrett: not at this time. if the bill weakens the agency, then the bill you introduced originally would actually destroy the agency. i have heard the ranking member during his debates do what he always does when he hasn't the facts or the law on his side, he attacks and twists other people's motives and he was in support of the elements of this bill before, but today, he comes out against it. he accuses everyone on our side of the aisle of trying to kill his legislation, but might i remind him to consider his own statements. the ranking member has claimed over the past week that the most important piece of the dodd-frank bill is the risk retention section of the legislation and then turns around and says -- mrs. capito: how much time do i have remaining? the chair: 4 1/2 minutes. mrs. capito: i yield 30 seconds. mr. garrett: he said the risk retention is most important and then says any loans with 4% downdamente should be exempt. i don't know many loans that are at that level. i find it surprising that he is a

garrett: yield one minute, please. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman is recognized. >> thank you, mr. speaker. with a record debt level of $14.2 trillion and unemployment at 9.2% and spending out of control, americans are searching for answers, a plan that will give them hope, a lifeline. the cut, cap and balance act is that lifeline. it is a simple plan with guaranteed results. raising the debt ceiling without serious spending reforms would be nothing but a green light for president obama for his failed spending problems and more tax hikes and more crushing debt. the president's policy has us borrowing 40 cents on every dollar. this will jeopardize our children's futures. and we must take action to solve our debt problems. i urge my colleagues to support this bill. by making immediate cuts and bringing federal spending in line with historic averages, we can promote job growth, sustain our nation's economic viability and ensure that our nation is secure. let's throw americans a lifeline and vote yes on the cut, ca

garrett: the gentleman is recognized for one minute. mr. scalise. the speaker pro tpore: the gentleman from louisiana. mr. scalise: thank you, mr. speaker. i rise in support of cut, cap and balance and you look at what american families have been telling us for the last few years, during these tough economic times what they've been doing is they've been cutting back, they've been tightingen -- tightening their belts and they sit around the kitchen table and figure out how to balance their budget and live within their means and yet today on the other side all you've seen is a parade of members coming criticizing the concept of a balanced budget. actually calling it extreme, radical. imagine that. only a big spending washington liberal could think it would be radical to require washington to start living within its means like families have been doing for years. and so frankly american families would say it's about time, welcome to the party. and instead some people think you can just live in this fantasy land where you can keep tax, taxing, spending,

i'll start by doing something mean which i'm starting by reading something that garrett to my left wrote a few years ago, and -- >> i have no idea what that it going to be. [laughter] >> it's nothing embarrassing, but reminds us all what we thought what president obama was legislated, and then i'll introduce the panelists. back in 2006, he wrote the following, "no one heard of the skinny chicago state senator and institutional law professor. now all bets are off. >> he won a grammy for his memoir, which spent a year no >> the inside is signed by its previous occupants. with that, here we are today. conservatives, as we all know as late as last week, conservatives are still questioning where the president's born. what's more shocking is the degree to which progressives that are some degree overrepresented on this panel are disappointed because obama hasn't -- [laughter] hasn't turned out to be exactly the president they expected. the issues are numerous. you know, obama has failed to one degree or another to -- i'm sorry? >> [inaudible] [inaudible conversations] >> the president has faile

and with that why do i turn it over to garrett. garrett is the end of the washingtonian magazine.his first book was called "the first campaign: globalization, the web, and the race for the white house." which examine the role of technology in the 2008 campaign. his second book is just coming out called "the threat matrix: the fbi at war in the age of global terror." that was out last month. so why don't you open it for us? [applause] >> well, as befitting my seat on the stage i think as i started off in politics working on howard dean's presidential campaign and i think i represent the far right wing of the panel today. [laughter] >> i think that the first two years of obama, in a lot of ways gives truth to the old political saying that one campaigns and politics and governance in prose. and that what, the lesson i think that obama has learned in many hard ways over the last two years is that governing is a lot harder than talking about governing. and that as much as we like to think that closing guantÁnamo would be an easy thing to do, it turns out that for all sorts of reasons,

the 1988 kidnapping of 9-year- old mccayla garrett and 13-year- old ilene mitchell. >> our aim is tothoroughly search the properties with our own cases in mind knowing what we're looking for in our cases. >> reporter: investigators say similarities with the dugard case led to this search. for example the victim's striking resemblance. police also point to the likeness between a suspect sketch and garrido's appearance in the late 70s and 80s. >> witness reported seeing her get into it. that vehicle description was similar to a vehicle which has been removed from this property in the previous search of the property. >> reporter: investigators say nothing in the evidence previously taken from the garrido home specifically led them to renew their efforts into these decades old cases. >> from what i know of the tips that have come in, this is one of the strongest leads we've pursued thus far. >> a week later investigators wrapped up their search and talk about what they had and had not found. reporter david stevenson was there. >> it began at 7:00 a.m. as officers and the fbi gave a last

back in 2006 garrett graff wrote the following. a few short years ago he wrote no one heard of the skinny chicago senator and constitutional law professor with the big ears and a funny name. now all bets are off. obama just might be willing to be the next president of the united states. it would be the capstone of an amazing rise for a politician whose charisma and personal story. the harvard educated has breezed life into the democratic party. at the heart of obama is his personality and presence. part preacher and professor and part movie star. his charisma seems effortless, his charm and afterthought. who is that guy? he certainly got it. he describes obama as the third african-american since reconstruction to serve in the senate. he delivered the keynote address at the 2004 national convention and won a grammy for the audio version of his memoir and he said he need look no farther than his desk in the senate chamber to be reminded of the last politician who embody the hopes of a generation, designed by its previous occupant inc
