i would legalize everything across the board so let me agree with mr hutchinson that just legalizing marijuana is a relatively small issue in terms of all the ancillary negatives of black markets and corruption and and violence huge fraction of all of those negatives that we associate with the illegal drug trade they are due to other drugs not mainly to marijuana so we really do have to have an honest conversation about all these other drugs where i really disagree is the view that drug prohibition is reduced is keeping the consumption of drugs substantially lower than it otherwise would be there's just no evidence for that whatsoever hey we don't have perfect evidence on that issue because very few countries have ever taken the legalization experiment but the extent we do have evidence it suggests very strongly that consumption of drugs would not change very much even if we were to legalize second even if it goes up and even if it goes up a lot we have to balance whatever negatives might come from that against all the huge negatives we get by attempting to prevent that increase in u

before hutchinson died, he wrote these words. i am sometimes tempted to forget that i am an american and to turn my view from my native, to turn my view as to what remains of life in england. but my passion for my native country returns and though i know not how to reason upon that, i feel a fondness to lay my bones in my native americans will. justice peter oliver also from an old american family also fled to england and lies buried there. george washington and other respected american leaders across the country condemned the boston tea party has vandals and ended in jail and faded into obscurity have the british government not responded so rashly and violently by sending the troops back to boston, buy quarter and the troops in the private homes of the wallace as well as rebels the british military command seem to declare the war against all americans and that provoked the entire massachusetts citizenry into open rebellion. lexington followed. the americans discovered the importance of the individual's right to bear arms. then c

he was down by 25 points to kay bailey hutchinson when he went out there and spoke to those people aboution and a week later the guy is up by ten points and he easily defeats her. >> what a strange world. let's take a look. most of the candidates had nothing but praise for rick perry last night when asked about his decision to enter the race. >> governor perry has a great record of job creation in texas and i think is a very formidable person. >> i think there's room in the race for governor perry, sarah palin. >> welcome to the contest. from my perspective, it doesn't bother us for my campaign. that's just one more politician, and that makes this business problem solver stand out thatch more. >> my hope is that if he does get into this race, he broadens the dialogue about job creation. >> i'm very pleased that he's coming in because he represents the status quo. >> i don't know what to make of that. let's get some straight talk. this guy, is he as good as he looks right now in terms of the fact that he clearly look gs to the right. >> here's the rick perry balance sheet. on the plus sid

those words were spoken by the brilliant 18th-century massachusetts governor thomas hutchinson and i will tell you more about him later. let me tell you what else he said because his words hold true today as much as they did then in 1774. governor hutchinson said that you can take the happiest and the most comfortable people and use the malicious rhetorical skills to arouse popular discontent with other government, the rulers, with everything around them, even when themselves. this is one of the weaknesses, he said, his words, one of the weaknesses of human nature of to which ambitious politicians make use of to serve their purposes. a year before he uttered those words, a group of boston rabble-rousers' convince americans they were miserable and to quote hutchinson again, those who think that they are miserable are so despite the evidence to the contrary. now why doubt if there is a single one of today's so-called tea party patriots who knows what the coverage a multi-party and tea party movement for about. far from being patriots, those original tea parties were mostly smugglers. s

and so the president and senator reid, senator rockefeller, senator hutchinson really stepped up here. and there is an agreement so these people can go back to work on monday, or as soon as the president signs the build. the faa workers will go back to work. and it really was more about some members of congress letting their own agendas and egos get in the way of hard-working people, right smack dab in the middle of the construction season. this is not the time to be laying people off. chris, you've heard the speeches. so have i. jobs, jobs, jobs. well, people give a lot of good speeches. the way to create jobs is not to have legislation that lays off 70,000 workers. now because of extraordinary leadership from the president and four senators, folks are going to go back to work, and are going to get paid. >> well, was there a piece of this deal and with organized labor? >> not really, chris. it was being talked about. it was more about essential air service. and our whole point was, pass a bill, and you can get back to the table and fix the labor issue, the essential air service issue

bush machine including george herbert walker bush and karl rove went to bat for senator kay bailey hutchinson for her failed g.o.p. primary bid against rick perry. >> laura: they were against him and for kay lay -- bayly. >> laura: you pick sides and do what you do. you can't be surprised if perry is annoyed by that or frankly if bush is annoyed bush is criticizing him. now we find out that jeb bush is very encouraging to someone like a paul ryan, that paul ryan should get into the race. jeb bush was thinking 2016 according to some sources. now jeb bush encouraging ryan according to steve hayes at the "weekly standard" fox news contributor. that also adds a level of intrigue into this. >> yeah. if those reports are true, laura, it would spell a kind of a death nail death nell. whatever his intentions with the karl roves and the tony frattos and tony wieners. perry wants to be able to tap into the bush donor network. >> laura: money. >> if is he urging other people to run it could mean that perry will have a tough time accessing that money. >> laura: that money needs to be shaken down from the

she campaigned for rick perry against -- against kaye bailey hutchinson and that's her fear, that she's secretly helping him, coming here, trying to take away a little of the spotlight. downplay ames just a little more as if perry's announcement's not enough. i think at the same time this goes back to we all -- she's acting like somebody not running for president even though she wants to say she's still considering. she's not doing the things you would do. >> right. >> so you get the sense that this is the case, she wants to get out on her own terms. she doesn't want to be told that there's no room for her. and that by doing this, she can feel good, gets a big crowd, and say, well, despite all the support i have, rick perry is finally the guy i've been waiting to hear who's talking the game that i've been wanting to hear, that says the message that i think is the right message. you could see that coming. and in fact the real speculation i hear is that if she comes back over labor day weekend, which is supposedly she's due back here to launch the pay per view version of the movie "undefe

senator hutchinson. >> thank you mr. chairman. the differences in the two bills that have been introduced, a basic program and the other is a bank that would be more of a revolving loan fund that would require a revenue stream -- my question is would that make the difference in projects that would be put forward? also, would it attract more private sector leverage and funding if you have the bank concept with the revenue stream, as opposed to grants being involved? or do you think there could be cases where grants can be an enhancement? >> that is a good question. i think the important thing to understand is that there is a need for funding sources for infrastructure. the infrastructure bank that are proposed around the eib model is a bank that makes loans and guarantees and seeks repayment. that does not mean that grants cannot continue. but the idea of an infrastructure bank, which could be used to supplement the chairman's particular project is the way of providing air level of capital, which will attract people like me as an e

>> politically everyone has their talking points but republicans including senator kaye bailey hutchinson of texas saying it's the uncertainty with the jobs creator creating the problem here and they're worried about how much they will have to forgo and pay with what she referred to as obama care. and some of the uncertainty surrounding those who would end up hiring some of the 14 million americans out of work. is that the core of the problem as you see it? >> i think as you said, politics does get into play here. jobs is definitely a tremendous -- it's the biggest issue. as we saw the number today it was good, but in march and april, we were seeing jobs created in the number of 200,000 a month. this was better than expected but we still face a serious problem there. companies are doing fine. i mean companies are doing well because they're not hiring. they have reduced their costs dramatically. i think the companies have done the best job of navigating through the crisis. >> we say better than expected numbers, these 154,000 private sector jobs, what's behind this better than expected com

so the president and senator reid, senator rockefeller, senator kay bailey hutchinson and senator baucusis an agreement so people can go back it work on monday, as soon as the president signs the bill. faa workers go back to work and it was more about some members of congress letting their own agendas and their own egos get in way of hard-working people right smack dab in the middle of the construction season. this is not the time to lay people off. chris, you heard the speeches. jobs, jobs, jobs. people give a lot of good speeches. the way it create jobs is not to have legislation that lays off 70,000 workers. now because of extraordinary leadership from the president and four senators, folks are going to go back to work and are going to get paid. >> was there a piece of this dealing with organized lanor sh. >> not really, chris. it was talked about. it was more about essential air service. our point was pass a bill and can you get back to the table and fix the labor issue, the essential air service issue and some of the other issues. that should not stand in the way of 07,000 won struk

i want to thank senator reid and rockefeller and hutchinson and the president. president yesterday at the meeting. the top of the meeting he said get it done. figure it out. get these people back to work. >> it's not that complicated. >> it's not. >> one senator said the consent, he could hold up the whole thing. >> that's correct. i think senator reid talked to enough to know and again his leadership played a big part in this along with the president who has been on the phone also and played a big part in making sure that this gets done tomorrow morning on the floor of the senate. the president signs it and 70 plus thousand people go back to work. >> stlar to approve it in the house. when would that happen? >> the bill they will need unanimous consent is a house bill. they have to go back. it goes down to the white house. the president signs it. >> and people go back to work right away. you blame congress for this. who is more to blame. the democratses or the republicans? >> congress is. >> but democrats and congress and republicans. >> look. i'm grateful to se

last-minute compromise deal that two senators jay rockefeller, democrat of west virginia, kay bailee hutchinsontexas they worked out to get over this faa issue. this furloughig of faa workers and potential setback of tens of thousands of workers. the u.s. government could lose a billion dollars over the next five weeks. taxpayers could lose because of this fight over the faa. he blocked that compromise and we'll talk to him and ask him why. a lot of people outraged that this happened. it shows, underscores one of the problems with congress. so, we'll get into that and a lot more in "the situation room." >> the president said today that is $200 million in losses every week. >> every week and it's five weeks. they've gone into recess until september 7th. that's five weeks. >> that's a lot of money. a lot of money, wolf blitzer. >> as they used to say, $1 billion. >> $1 billion, indeed. wolf, we'll see you later this hour with another preview. >>> top of the hour, take a look at this. >>> at this very minute the numbers are settling on wall street and nerves are starting to rise. we're all over th

last year rick perry came from 20 votes behind in the republican race in texas to destroi kaley hutchinsonarracuda in republican primaries and a tornado. she has a connection to the state with a tea party message, but there's another cheeseburger on the menu that looks similar. rick perry will give her a hell of a race. if he beats her here, he can beat her in the southern states. we have to see how he performs, but rick perry is a tough candidate. >> would you advise romney to come back to iowa here? >> this is the wrong terrain for him. i would tell him this. engage perry now. don't wait around for new hampshire for the tidal wave to build. go for him now and take an argument of winnability to him. rick perry in the general election, not sure republicans want it. >> mike murphy, more from you on "meet the press" tomorrow. john martin, we'll see you tomorrow as well on "meet the press." >>> coming up, much more live from ames, iowa. you are watching a special edition of "the daily rundown." catch me every day at 9:00 a.m. right here on msnbc, where we are the place for politics for a reas

i commend and applaud kay bailey hutchinson who has been so strong, recognizing what they did in the house is wrong, and ray lahood, the secretary said the republicans are doing this. i just think it's so, so bad that the -- and the airlines, how about that? about $1 million a day they are taking money that belongs with the federal government. i agree say, speaker boehner, stop this nonsense. >> my name is steny hoyer, i'm the democratic whip, i'm speaking on behalf of speaker pelosi and myself. as speaker reid has pointed out today, almost 4,000 federal employees and some 70,000 workers for contractors around this country are being held captive. they are out on the street because republicans have refused to work with us to find common ground. the faa shut down will jeopardize $11 billion in construction projects. it will cost more than $200 million per week. it is already cost us $360 million. this is from the party that is worried about fiscal responsibility. thousands of people have critical aviation engineers, safety analyst, and key personnel. we owe it to these workers to come

current perry people, there's a little tension between them and a lot of them back senator kay bailey hutchinson's right. there's some conflict. it's hard for republicans to dis george bush and do it successfully. that's what governor perry just did the other day trying to point out the differences. this campaign is not going to be about george bush. it's going to be about rick perry or michelle bachmann. >> i agee with mark on that. >> i hope so. i want to bring you into this. big story in "the new york times" today, governor perry, yeah, his stats look good and the state looks strong but he's lucky. lucky military spending and lucky to have a big tech sector and lucky to have oil. is that right? >> texas, you know, is a great state. successful under president bush and successful under governor perry and, you know, he's smart to say that texas is great, it is. however, you know, to say that texas, you know, like me because i'm a texan and like me because i'm the biggest and best state. i think he needs to be a little more broader in america. i want to get back to the fact that, you know, talkin
