if you think of a traditional suspension bridge as a hammock connected on two sides, this is more like a sling, connected on one side and loops around the other. so, if that makes sense, then we can show you sort of what the next process is. in order to put this cable in place we have connections that will be happening primarily on t the eastern side of the self-anchored suspension bridge and the wraparound will be happening on the western side of the bridge. if we look at the eastern side first, you can see how the main cable comes down into the road that you drive on and like any traditional suspension bridge the cable fans out. this cable is made up of smaller wires. you look at the fact sheet, you will see there are 137 strands, of 127 wires each. the wires are about five millimeters in diameter. each could basically lift a military grade hummer and there are 17,399 of those wires in the main cables of the bridge. so, as it comes down to the deck it comes through the stroud and fans out and ties back within that deck section. that is how it connects on the eastern side of the bridg

for a wrap of this and other political news of the day let's go live to pug in a hammock. pug? oh x, look at ron paul in there sleeping. do you think president obama is using it as a defense? >> yes, definitely. negative ads work. you look back at 2006 and there is a lot of members of congress at the time, and republicans lost the house. they lost the senate. there are a lot of members who are saying, i am going to run a very positive campaign. and strategists like myself are sitting there laughing saying that does president work. -- that does president work. you have to run ads. there were 10,000 points taken out at newt gingrich. he doesn't have that much money and that's a joke. >> that's the point, tucker. he doesn't have the money to run negative ads. >> very smart analysis, they work and they are largely true and they do move numbers. guess what doesn't work? bitchig about them. >> they are being mean to me. take it like a man. suck it up. >> i remember runing that ad against you in 2003, tucker carlson is a [bleep]. >> it was partly true for one thing. >> yes, it worked,

who is going to spend your life -- you are smart guy, you can go to law school hammock a lot of money but instead you've choose to sit in a dark office working on these equations all day and all night, no promise of any particular success and he do that because you do have awe and wonder and you want to know how it works. that is spiritual. i said, spirituality is important for science in just because sciences don't believe that wolves jump across the sky -- [laughter] >> there's not one person in this room that believes that. >> led to me, you do. >> i do? when did you hear me say that? >> i don't mean that literally. >> in any case, the other thing deepak said that the sciences deny consciousness. i don't know where that comes from. sciences don't only deny consciousness, there are scientist leading consciousness but scientists admit that they don't just, they can just say where it comes from. scientist up progress in small steps, carefully and scientist will start talking about what consciousness is when they have a good idea what it is but just because they can't explain it doesn'

when the safety net becomes a hammock, and people stay in it forever, we're just read distributing wealth. host: doug on twitter -- guest: we did have the keystone pipeline in the 1-year, and the two-month also had the keystone pipeline. but that is a true jobs peace. if you want 40,000 jobs to take off in the next year, then you allow the pipeline to go through. canada approved it in a year, and three years later, we cannot agree on it. we already have a pipeline that runs from that same area all the way to the call. host: through oklahoma. guest: that is right. so people seem to think that the keystone pipeline is brand new and we have never done it this and we're bringing the old friend the oil sands. we do this every single day. this just doubles our capacity. they are going either sell that oil to the east or sell that oil to us. we would rather have an all -- our oil come from north america. host: how many jobs in oklahoma? guest: it is all the way up and down nationwide. 20,000 jobs are created, and some long term. they are long-term management of the pipeline. the second thing is
