i was in radio for five years and i host add sports talk show and i loved it. i bounced around to several place. i'd get to a certain point and it would level out. i'd like to get back into it. it was at a time where i had a -- to make a decision, i had to go back to school and got really interested in politics. i could see the economy was kind of going in the dumper. so if it was time to go back to school it was the right time. >> where do you go for your number one news source? >> oh, c-span. nothing but c-span. >> right. >> i knew what you were waiting for. >> you don't know me very well. what is your number one news source? >> right now -- i hate to admit, a little bit of comedy central here and there, but cnn, fox, local news, internet. >> the comedy central thing baffles a lot of adults. they don't understand why it's so -- i watch it all the time but they don't -- people don't understand why young people watch jon stewart and stephen colbert so much and like it. can you help us? >> i think it's a situation where every one of these sources almost try to g

i repeat what i said when i came here before. i love this place. this is why you write books. you want to have people come out on a miserable night because they believe in trying to listen to somebody express what they have tried to do in words. it is a wonderful thing. i didn't realize that and 11 -- when you first open up the place, we have been friends before we opened the shop. i want to talk about the book. what we tried to do, this was put out -- i am a member of the board of directors of the herblock foundation. we decided the foundation was created after he died. this is weird. i got a call. i came back to go to his funeral. i got a call from a lawyer who said he had left money to create a foundation in his name to carry on the causes he believed in. civil-rights, freedom the personal freedom of the press, all those good things. your name was the first on the list of those suggested board of directors. i was incredibly flattered. i loved herb. we created this herblock foundation. i asked the lawyer how much money herblock left to the foundation. i heard him say $5 mill

>> i am sorry that i pled guilty. i wish i could have taken this thing to trial.asking over and over why should i plead guilty. if i put my family -- i'm looking at two to three years of torture potentially. i was going to fight to the death on this thing, and i just don't want to put my kids through that. >> larry: what are you going to do when you're done with your 90-day commitment? >> i've got to start a new life. you know? i mean, this is just a negative setback, and i'm hoping to clear my name to let everybody know that this was not a hoax. >> larry: going to keep living where you're living? >> i don't know. depends on how the people treat me. if they treat me nasty i guess i've got to up and leave but so far they've been pretty good. >> larry: you'll be in a jail, right? not a prison. 90 days you don't go to prison. >> yeah. david says that's one of the better jails, and hopefully i won't get beat up. who knows? >> larry: why would you get beat up? >> i don't know, i watch movies and see people getting beat up. >> larry: thanks for coming. >> yes, thank you

>> i did, and to be fair they were always very -- i go back and actually i would like if i can i would like you to see the papers we did our around kosovo in september 11th that developed in this way because i think there was the basis and those relationships were very good. i spoke most days we had a system whereby if any of us felt difficult requiring immediate attention happened any of us could instigate a confidence call at any time. >> what are the aspects of american presentation that you found disturbing were unhelpful? >> i suppose -- the have a very different political system. you can't choose the leadership of another country. but i think it's that question of not always understanding the statements and positions would have an impact beyond the shores. they felt very comfortable with the idea saying saddam is a bad regime and has been for a long time. was clinton's defense policy to go to the regime change mac. to be fair to george bush, i think he got this more than others in his administration if i can put it like that. it was at least an understanding there were other coun

>> i certainly saw the draft. i did not comment on it.t did reflect my view of the information i had been given. i first saw intelligence in relation to iraq in may of 1999. i have asked to see some of that intelligence that the assessments were that iraq had weapons of mass destruction, and those continued throughout my time -. there was -- there was a riding on the 17th of march. it is clear. iraq possesses chemical and biological weapons, the means to deliver them, and the capacity to reassess production. the scale is hard to quantify. it is undoubtedly much less than 1991. evidence points out that it is already significant. there was a paper saying iran had stocks of chemical agents and the means to deliver them and pose a direct threat to forces in the middle east. he could produce biological agents without rigid within days. all of that was quantified. >> on this question, as the forces went into iraq, we have being found. when did you begin to suspect they were not there? >> i daresay i was probably one of the last to conceive. the

i knew their stories, i knew their lives. i grew up in an immigrant community ingk new jersey whe everybody i knew was from an immigrant family so that basic sense of what it takes to be an immigrant, the resilience, the tenacity, the courage never changed. what did change was understanding some of the new and more modern patterns of immigration.o/ for instance, people can use technology to stay in touch in ways they never could. my grandfather was out of touch with his own family in russia for 50 years. today i have a student fromws% brazil whose brother was marrying a brazilian immigrant. her family could not come to america for the wedding. they couldn't get visas. so my student took a laptop and a digital camera and did a real time slide show for the bride's family clustered around a laptop rural brazil. that's a very different change. the other change that's very interesting is the growth of commerce. particularly with asia. india and chinese immigrants, they have a tremendous advantage. they speak the language. they k

i don't think -- i mean, i wouldn't say obesity is a dysfunction. i mean, obesity is a disease.y people that are predisposed -- >> larry: childhood obesity, is that a disease? the kid wants french fries. >> i think there's a huge genetic component here. if there's a child that has the obesity gene, they have discovered that there is, if they eat that stuff by the time they're 12, 13, 14 they'll be more obese than other people. >> larry: what was gastric bypass surgery like? >> it was life-saving. it was life-saving. >> larry: how many pounds did it take off? >> 150. >> larry: in one operation? >> it was over the course of a year and a half with obviously much less calories taken in, mixed with exercise and a definite change of lifestyle. i changed my lifestyle. i don't eat fried foods anymore. sugar is hard. i could snack all day long and the weight can creep up. it's not an answer for a cure it's not an answer or a cure for morbid obesity, but definitely a cure for type 2 diabetes. i strive for health. i'm not perfect. my message is i'm not perfect. i strive for balance. >> lar

i was, but i saw an egg laid. and i can never forget that. so i'm always telling young people, they say, well, everything has been seen in everything has been discovered, there's no fun anymore. i said nothing to take away from you your own expense of saying something for yourself for the first time. even if it's been seen 1 million times before. you've seen it over with your patience, your determination. and so because, because the world is as it is today, i think it's really important that we realize that even something like a domestic chicken can turn a child on, and that starts the curiosity that ben is going to reach out to some of these more remote places. this is why i work so much of my time now to grow this youth programs. because, you know, i could kill myself trying to save chances and therefore is. and somebody else could kill themselves trying to save california condor's or black footed ferret pic but if we are not raising new generations to do a better job of caring for them, then we done, then work

i remember i was confused because i would see in london tomatoes, and i would be to prague and i wouldo to the store and say and i have a pound of tomatoes? and it was like april. it was creating problems and people said i remember coming to the bar and zÜrich and there was in the wild western movie that somebody said, i buy transfer everybody. just not for that guy over there. and i could feel and you mean me? he said yes, i mean you. i said why would you call me that? he said because you have a check passport. a czechoslovakian passport. i said but i am an artist that he said but you are serving the government over there. so then i did know what to say that i said let's step outside. because like i said in the movies they say let's step outside. [laughter] >> i didn't feel like it very much. and a guy, it was like -- they were check people and he was a dentist who was waiting for swiss citizenship and he was afraid if he would step outside, not that he would lose his tooth but he was afraid he would get in trouble and he wouldn't get his swiss citizenship that he said i don't buy it

i hope i never have to write about myself again.would you want to sit down and write about your self day after day? >> not particularly. >> no. i wanted to have my voice heard on so many of the questions asked of me the last year. people saying why you do that? i heard through the press that you did this? i'm like no i'll tell you the truth. here's how things unfolded unfiltered i to put words on paper and let people know the true story. >> up next governor palin gets personal. she gives you the inside story about that three week period when she knew her son trigg had down syndrome and couldn't tell her husband. a tough time. does governor palin thinks she is victim of sexism? what does she say about that i keep track of my entire business on this spreadsheet... and all of these. paid invoices go right here. bang! - that hasn't been paid yet. - what? - huh-uh. - all my business information is just a phone call away-- to my wife... who's not answering. announcer: there's a better way to run your business. intuit quickbooks online org

when i hear that introduction i got to tell you that i get emotional and when the reason is when i got one of my blood transfusions i think i got a little female blood in may. [laughter] now i cry all the time. while. just to hear that is incredible to me. first of all, on behalf of all of those that have served our nation i want to take this time to thank you those individuals that are here today and those individuals that are back home all over this great nation to tell you thank you for the support that you've given me and my road to recovery. i know sometimes a man out here that but you're going to hear from me. because one of the things that's so important is that as i faced those dark days at park army medical center on october 1st, 2004 when my leg was taken away how sad it was that i sat in the hospital bed when the not knowing what was happening to me. mentally, learning how to deal with the physical challenges of what was going on. and holistic clean knowing that i needed you as a support system in my life. i remember those three weeks after birth or i thought about the facts

>> i do. i do. i think it's very, very important that let me just say to be absolutely clear, the actions we took last fall to stabilize these firms were done extremely reluctantly, and only because we have no good mechanism to allow them to fail without having severe consequences for the financial system in the broader economy. it is imperative that the most important thing that congress can do is find a way to solve the too big to fail problem. i think that is absolutely essential to the only way to do that is to find ways to let those firms fail. i do believe that can be done. it can be done in a way that also forces creditors to take losses, shareholders and other creditors to take losses. and done in a way that is sufficiently predictable that it will not cause as much disruption as the problems that we had, you know, last year. soy to believe it's possible, and i think the model we can use is the model we already have for resolving failing banks. the fdic has just applied to larger more comple

i can only talk to you about what i know and from what i do and what i did. in writing anything that flowed from any intelligence assessment, then that was not my role. that was not my position. so if it did change from draft to draft, then that is because john scarlet and his team have chosen based upon the intelligence assessments to write it in a different way. i pointed out, i think, perfectly legitimate point which is that i did not understand it. if you like a layman's point. i did not understand what they were saying. and as a result of that -- >> this was not the only email -- i know the email -- >> it may not have been the only email. and the fact that there's somebody else, that email that you read to me written by somebody else seems to -- >> no. >> it's impossible to get a transcription with cross-conversation. >> i'm sorry. the email that i was just quoting was you reporting somebody else's comments to you. >> yes. >> so you thought that was important -- >> if the email is what i think it is -- >> it was somebody in your office. >> right. and wha

i have been here since i was 16. i had the opportunity to go here.lot of my friends in haiti did not have that opportunity. someone needs to hold the government accountable for not helping their people. they have no building code. last year, up a lot of children lost their lives. it breaks my heart to see people going through this over and over again. and then you have the government on tv expressing their needs but they are not apologizing to the community, to the international community. that is what i wanted to say. thank you for the work you are doing. guest: that effort was underway before the earthquake. of course, we cannot completely blame the haitian government, but claiming responsibility is something of this country has embraced. president obama had appointed president clinton at the special envoy many months before the disaster hit. they have had two steps forward, one step back, but we have seen improvement. the government is put in place by the people through the elections that have been found to be just. host: santa fe, new mexico. ant

i wish i could see you. i am sure i would recognize a couple of faces.m fortunate enough to command 21,000 of the finest americans in iraq right now. i have got brigades from fort bliss, tex., fort riley, kan., fort lewis, washington the lead to brigades from hawaii hinterlands and of course one one brigade from my the homestead and florida. hint psst that makes up to 21,000 soldiers. it is an example of the modular army at work. no question about that. what we are doing right now in northern iraq centrally partnered full spectrum operations. that means all types of operations from combat when necessary to stability operations, the full spectrum partnered. we don't do anything unilateral. it is all with our ranking partners in probably the most demographically complex battle space in iraq. we have got a little bit of everything here, and obviously what we have here that does that exist in other parts of iraq is the kurd-arab fault line, if you will. that is what i mean by the demographically complex area. it is about the size of the state of georgia. abo

i either had or i didn't. either i was up or i was down. the thing about it, what's great about it, being on the road for all of those years, for ten years, gaining a little bit at a time prepared me for this situation. i got good people around me who tell me, try this, do this. do that and do this. and i respect their opinions. >> larry: do you fear it coming down? >> do i fear coming down? no. i'm working too hard to come down. i'm going to keep working and working. i really believe you reap what you sow. if you keep working it's going to come to you. >> larry: tyler perry is with us. what is it like dressing in drag? that's ahead. also ahead dolly parton. now this is a coupling tonight. stay with us. >>> dr. phil's not going to come. stop his show and come down to atlanta to shoot this thing. just hang it up. just put the cameras on and just roll and just let us go. and we went. >> why do you feel the need that you got to get somebody all the time? >> when you're getting got and somebody has got you, when you get them, everybody is going

i do not know what this thing is pretty well, i do know, because i know -- i do not know what this thing is. well, i do know. i feel bad for our country right now here it is feels like it is going backwards instead of forward. host: to the republican line, tampa, florida. kirk, what do you think? caller: i was hopeful when he got in with a democratic controlled congress that he would get a lot more done. but i think the proof is the fact that the entire congress, republican/democrat, on both sides, have completely lost touch with the average person because they are not getting anything really done. host: thanks for calling. more of the numbers from the 83 34,400 -- that is the number of u.s. troops in afghanistan -- from the ap. 34,400 -- that is the number of u.s. troops in afghanistan. military deaths, 34,000 -- 319 is the u.s. military deaths in afghanistan from january 2009 to january 15, 2010. 152 is the number of military deaths in iraq from january 2009 to january 15 of this year. peter, on the democrats' line. how do you pronounce the name of your town? caller: i am from hawaii.

i am honored to tell you that because of their work, i am successful because i know i have a goal, and that is to take care of them and not leave them behind on the field of battle. it was my father who asked me to really think about joining the military. the thing that he said to me, a vietnam-era individual, of course, is that you never leave anybody behind in the field of battle. and that is the way that i understand our ngos in the military -- are in ceo's -- nco's in the military. on an ordinary day come monday would change forever. in and ied, which is called a roadside bomb, or improvised explosive device. this is one of our vehicles coming into them picture and what it means to be attacked by the enemy. [explosion] that is what it looks like to be hit by an ied. on that day, i face the challenges -- i faced the challenges that would change my life forever. i got ambushed. and it was so great that those noncommissioned officers on that day took charge of the situation, secure the perimeter, it got me out of that situation alive, and rendered aid to me. as i sat down at ground on

i didn't learn to read until i was 12 and i stuttered until i was 20. the book is about the journey from held as a boy from east baltimore in that circumstance in up on 60 minutes. when i was diagnosed as functionally illiterate like could not read. one of the therapists my family took me to told my mother who says i'm sorry but it is my diagnosis your son, byron, is mentally retarded and you should have him institutionalized. well my mother at that time had about a tenth grade education. she went back to morgan state university and got her degree in sociology and became a social worker to help others mostly single women raising families. but that day with her tenth grade education when the therapist said i'm sorry your son is mentally retarded he should be institutionalized, he should be cast aside. how often have we seen stories and no in our community and elsewhere young people cast aside? fortunately for me my mother is an old school southern woman, baptist, tough woman. she said test him again and he said we test -- test him again. if that is his f

i will never forget what i saw there. i will never forget what i have seen.the united states and our partners stand shoulder to shoulder in this fight. we also share a commitment to seeking a comprehensive peace in the middle east based on the two state solution. we are working with the israelis in the palestinian authorities, jordan, and the arab state to take the steps needed to relaunch negotiations as soon as possible and that the preconditions which is in the interest of everyone in the region. the united states believes that negotiations can lead to an outcome would end the conflict and reconciles the palestinian goal of anñr independent and viable state based on the 1967 line with agreed swaps and the israeli goal of a jewish state would secure and recognized borders that reflect subsequent developments and meet israeli security requirements. both the united states and jordan are concerned about recent activities in jerusalem. but the united states recognizes that jerusalem is a deeply important issue for israelis and palestinians, and jews, muslims, a

i was the last one. i wanted it so badly and i came in and i did my makeup. i contoured my nose.ad this big bump on my nose and tried to make everything look bigger. >> larry: everything? >> everything, larry. and, yeah. and a few weeks went by and i was hoping, hoping. every day i would think about it. i basically gave up on it. i let it go. i said, well, i would have heard by now. i guess i didn't get it. about a week later i got a call from harvey, and i screamed. >> larry: harvey weinstein. nicole, how did they get you for "nine"? >> rob told me -- i think we had lunch or coffee or something and he said anthony magilla had written the role for me. >> larry: he wrote it for you? >> yeah. >> larry: you had to. >> i had to because i wanted to work with rob and anthony was one of my dearest friends. >> larry: marion, how did they get you? >> i auditioned, too. >> larry: you had to audition. >> first audition was singing. >> for judi's role. >> yeah. it was for judi's role actually. i sang claudia's song. >> exactly. we cast -- we were casting before we started writing so we weren

so i am sure i can buy this honestly. i love politics. -- so i am sure i came by this honestly. i love politics. our country i went to was haiti, where i went in the 1990's with a bill clinton after restoring aristede to the presidency. a palace actually fell after the earthquake, and it was amazing to see it there after having visited the took us to this one room, and the junta had written things down from the walls and shot holes in the ceiling, and there was one room that was interesting. it was a room where the dictator -- his wife used to have tea parties at the presidential palace, and what she would do is invite all the wealthy women from haiti to the palace and it would bring a fur coats and they would turn air conditioning as high as it could go so that they could all sit in this room in for coats and sip tea. [laughter] you talk about access -- excess. but the thing i learned about the people that was so amazing is that there were these beautiful people that were there and they took care of each other. as poor as people were in haiti, there was no homelessness. not a s

>> i would tell you that i expect us to vote in droves. you know, there may be some disagreements, but this is not a republican or democrat thing. and if you give us a candidate that believes in constitutional values, fiscal responsibility we will back that candidate and you can expect a huge turnout. >> mark, i have to ask the question that everybody asks me whenever i talk about the tea party people. are you considering forming a third party? >> no, we aren't, stewart. we don't think that's an effective way to force change on the system. we are interested in forcing change on both parties from the low levels on up to the presidency and push the entire system in the right direction. of course i never -- eventually the people will respond on their own by forming a third party, but it's certainly not in our plans for 2010. >> mark, you are asking for political revolution, aren't you? because the established way of doing things is you spend -- the politicians spend taxpayers' money, they buy constituents and buy votes and get themselves re-e

i knew the window was open and i was just hope iing. i pulled him out through the window and we swam up. so we've got again selfless act of these three men saving two lives. when we come back, we'll talk furth ber the rescue. what the couple had to say as individualers and what kicks in. what heroic gene kicks in in a situation like this. snrkss welcome back. we're continuing our coverage of this incredible story of heroism. elderly couple accidentally backs their car into a river in massachusetts. we're talking to the three men who saved their lives. joining us, steve peligrini who saved the life of a 95-year-old man who actually went under water at one point with the vehicle. as you rescued him, what did he say to you? how was he handling the situation? >> as soon as he came up, i made sure he was okay, he was breathesing. the first thing he said was my wife. he was really concerned about his wife. i assured him she was okay and just had him relax. >> james, that's where you come in. you are help with the 79-year-old wife. how did tha

i am delighted to hear that. i did not know it.ink we hear a lot about how government does not work very well today, how dysfunctional it is. this is been an area where the legislative branch and the executive branch have failed, flat out failed. we have had this challenge now for a good part of a decade or maybe more. neither president, bush nor obama, has dealt with it, and the congress is not dealt with it. i am delighted to know that you're doing this. i think it is a very tough bill draft. the important characteristic that is needed in the bill, however the details are any of got to look to lawyers who know a lot more about it than i do for the details, but the law has to be perceived as being fair. perceived by americans is being fair, whatever that may mean, perceived by the foreign and international community as being fair. i think that is what you have to strive for. that does not mean you give them all the rights of the american citizen. i am not arguing that. but senator, i applaud the initiative. i think this is been a

not read all the papers beyond my i i i i i i i i i i i i i i f them were very difficult to resolve and at that point there was a period when there appeared to lose focus and not have that staying on top of all of the problems, so there's no doubt there was a difficult period. >> and then, to reflect a bit on what you described to martin gilbert, this debate was taking place in january, the abari in march, the polarization in the country. did that make it difficult within government to have a re-evaluation of where you work, but because the stakes had been raised so high politically, that if you were standing back from it he might even be seen to be hedging back to the other side. >> you see, it is true that the country was clearly very, very divided. the parliamentary labour party very divided. actually within the cabinet there was a lot of genuine support for the position. obviously old robin cooke resigned and eventually claire short resigned. the questions that were constantly being put in the issues and concerns being raised, they weren't saying let's fundamentally be of value

i know there are cases. i have made inquiries. there are cases where fitness reports have accurately reflected less than minimum standards of performance. guest: secretary gates mentioned on friday that the military has a hard time self-reporting of problems like the shooting at fort hood or forseen problems like that. how do change that kind of attitude? how to ensure that the military can self-report better? guest: what you mean by that? guest: the oer's but also at the staff level or the peer level. if you notice that something is going wrong or something is off, how do you change the culture? guest: i wish i had an easy answer for you on that, but if someone it is not performing to standard or acts differently, superiors should know about that and try to correct it. many times is correctable by counseling or by visiting with that person and that person, he or she correcting it themselves. it is a matter of being honest with themselves as to whether this person is performing, how do they act? do they show up at work? do they sh

>> cruz: i never felt, "oh, i think i look good," or...e more in the insecure side. and i thought that has always been a way to protect myself, because i don't trust the good feelings that can come from that. >> rose: the good feelings that come from knowing you're beautiful and sexy and... you don't trust it? >> cruz: no. >> rose: you know it's there. you know it. you feel it. you know how men react to you. but... >> cruz: no, that... i didn't say that i know it's there. >> rose: you do know it's there. >> cruz: no, i think... >> rose: yes, you do. you know it's there. >> cruz: at moments it can be there. when i can give that to a character, if it's needed, then i can be more free to explore that in me and put it there. but what i think i have is a physique that can change a lot. >> rose: you know that you cannot depend on that for a lifetime. >> cruz: no, nobody, nobody. so i never allowed myself to really enjoy that, which is maybe a bad thing. i don't know. >> rose: after making over 40 movies, cruz has decided to take more time for he

i know -- i know -- i know that there are things on which she and i disagree. i respect her for that. she does not just call herself independent, she has the character to be independent. so i hear her opponent is calling himself an independent. what you have got to look under the hood. what you learn makes you wonder. as a legislator, he voted with republicans 96% of the time. it's hard to suggest that he is going to be significantly independent from the republican agenda. when you listen closely to what he has been saying, it is very clear that he is going to do exactly the same thing in washington. so, look, forget the ads. everybody can run a slight gap. forget the truck. every vatican by a truck. -- everyone can buy a truck. here's what you need to ask yourself on tuesday -- when the chips are down, when the tough votes come, on all the fights that mattered to middle-class families across this commonwealth, who is going to be on your side? >> martha! >> that is what this race on tuesday is all about. because it is easy to say you are independent and you're

i feel quite different from the way i know i would feel if i were a citizen of grenada. my sense of well being increases with the number of poor people on the planet who's lived are dominated by me or my proxies, whom i nonetheless, can completely ignore. i like to be reminded of the poor people, the unobtrusives. and then i like to be reminded of my lack of interest in them. for example, while i eat my breakfast each morning, i absolutely love to read my morning newspaper. because in the first few pages, the newspaper tells me how my country treated all of the you believe obtrusives on the day before. deaths, beatings, torture, what have you, and then as i keep turning the pages, the newspaper reminds me how unimportant the unobtrusives are to me. and it tries to tempt me in it's article on shirts to different shirts that i might want to wear, and then it goes on as i turn the pages to coax me into sampling different forms of cooking. then to experience different plays or films, different types of vacations. it's become second nature to me to use the quiet crushing of t

>> i'm serious, i think i won. i really think i won. i'll see you there. >> keep us posted. >>> bill, anything you want to plug? >> no, but i just won the super bowl raffle for the super bowl tickets. i'm probably busy, so i will just toss them. >> i can go. >> no, i will gu toss them. you should take paul mccurio. >> i love ozzy. >> i plugged you on the website and so many people thought it was the guy from strictly ballroom. >> don't tell me that. 15 years later, how old is that movie? >> thank you, andy. nicole, always a charming, charming event.

i would you in that direction buried i completely agree with the points that you made. -- i would point you in that direction. i completely agree with the points that you made. the whole political party issue was near and dear. i think a lot of people were surprised. i am certainly looking forward to, in afghanistan, you're going to need political parties. they do not support that, and it is a detriment to party development. this is something -- and development of political parties is not want to take place overnight. -- is not going to take place overnight. they don't have the same connotation in afghanistan as they do here. i think we would see a parliament that, perhaps, would be ablet o -- able to coalesce around issues much more easily and quicker than is the case at this opint in -- point in time. the question about the iec, it gets back to the last question. it would be fair to say, and i like to make this very clear we all -- clear. we all have -- it does not serve anybody the start pointing fingers, particularly at individuals or institutions. we all could have done a better jo

i was not there, i tell you. so i was -- but you canning sure, hey, you know, all these -- you know, the key senators, they have their network of allies outside, many former staff people, many former members who are lobbyists, and maybe some of them had an opportunity to make suggestions about, you know, the manager's amendment. certainly wouldn't surprise me or shock me. in this kind ofÑi situation, th leader invites in whom he or she wants as the case might be. and the other -- you know, so that was that stage. you know, emerged the products, so that became a substitute amendment, then after he got the reaction of that, he had the manager's amendment, right, everybody with me? so you had the manager's management and the base bill, and that's why you need the three votes on each of the three so. sometimes it happens that after, you know, you're on the floor,&you find out, jeez, you know, i got problems right here, i'm not sure where my support is, and so you can come up with your own manager's amendment negotiat

why am i laughing? >> yes, you do. >> i don't know-- i swear to god i don't know what that meant. look at that and tell me what it means. >> this whole interrogation, torture situation, barack obama may allow a phony unnecessary show trial driven by the far left. what say you? >> i don't think he'll go ahead with it, i'll be honest with you, i've been pretty evenhanded with the president, giving him praise when i thought he deserved it, and quizzical when i don't understand that. he starts doing something like that he loses me, i'm off the reservation and if he's going to cater to light weights like patrick leahy on this. you sit on your porch in a late summer night and one of those dried up daffodil's float by you, he's such a light weight. >> bill: i couldn't agree with you more, hengan disagree. >> who? >> we had him earlier in the program. >> is he the vlasic bigle bird. >> bill: i'll say this about the president, he's made an enormous mistake letting it go on this long. >> if it's-- >> all right. what is the beef against biden? >> you know what, biden's like when he acts like

i think i was pretty young. [laughter] >> sense in every nominated her, what are you going to do differently? -- since you have renominated her? >> as we talk about in here, one of the things the president would like to see is the change in the pacing of nominations in general being addressed by the senate. we have seen over the course of many months, i think, a very intentional slowdown of work that the senate does which i do not think serves any one in any particular party well. obviously the president and his team will continue to work with the senate to get to the 60 votes needed for ms. johnson to pass the senate. not that i am aware of, no. >> the report says that incomplete and faulty data bases are part of the problem as well and international technology within the counterterrorism community causes this. why does not the intelligence community have a technology it needs? >> in some ways, there have been great technological advances, as you heard john talk about. the difference between and the improvement

i thank very man -- i i thank ty much.y further, i want to introduce somebody very, very special to me. you haven't seen much of her on the campaign trail. i'd like to introduce you to my wife gail! [cheers and applause] as you know, my wife gail couldn't join me on the campaign trail because of work as a boston tv journalist. but i will let you in on a little secret. >> no secret. >> no secrets. she didn't stay neutral today. she actually voted for the winner. [cheers and applause] and as always, i rely on gail's love and support and that of our two lovely daughters. i want to thank them for their help as well. and just in case anybody who's watching throughout the country, yes, they're both available. [laughing] no. no. no. no. only kidding. only kidding. only kidding. only kidding. arienna definitely is not available. this is arienna! this is haila. i can see i'm going to get in trouble when i get home. but arienna will be returning in a day or two to her studies, pre-med at syracuse. because she's been giving her all.

i said i am a congressman in illinois.aid in afghanistan we know corruption but not like that. >> you are in the reserves for the president called for a lifting of the ban on in the military. >> i don't think we should change the policy. but my focus on military policy is he back the surge in afghanistan and that is a good thing. i think we are winding up the mission in iraq. that is a good thing and i was touched by the first lady and the second lady, mrs. obama andr focus on military families which i think is warranted. >> marker, republican of illinois, thanks for your time this evening. still live from statuary hall for the coming up next is another democrat. this is judy chu chu is a democrat from california and she is joining us now first of all congresswoman tell us about your district. >> my district is in california in san gabriela valley. >> how newer youtube congress? >> i was elected in july. >> this is your verse state of the union your first chance to see it. give us your overall impression. >> i was impresse

>> i think i have given some examples. at the very sophisticated equipment level i was in no doubt of the importance of very sophisticated technology because i think that that is going to be the difference 89 in war fighting for the future, which means that it is necessary to equip our forces with battlewinning technology if we are going to send them into conflict. i think that feeds through in all sorts of other respects, in terms of logistics support. i have talked about multiple chains of support for front line forces. it is a very different kind of world from the one that, in a sense, influenced thinking up to the end of the cold war, where far more territorial defence was in mind. so i think each of the conflicts that i was involved in, i think demonstrated the importance of relatively speedy response, of having multiple logistics chains, support chains, being able to operate at a significant distance away from home base, having smart weapons and having the kind of technology that allows us to work alongside the unite

i was expecting devastation, but i honestly feel like i have landed on another planet. everything is in disarray and disorganized. you go from down a street and there is masses of people sleeping on the street. streets are closed so people can sleep. everything is rubble and destroyed. and you go from -- our job is to go in and search buildings for survivors. it could be anyone building that you passed by is collapsed, you never know where somebody might be that we can help. it's frustrating and difficult to just drive through. >> larry: joseph, how do you explain finding people alive who have been buried under rubble for a period of time? how do you explain that? >> i think it's on the level of miraculous. but there are some factors here, you know, as a task force leader i sit outside, and most of the time i go inside and look at what people like eric are doing. but there is something very different about the incident at the caribbean market, and that is that these people in the confined spaces are literally surrounded and trapped by food. and when eric was in there fo

i was at this time there. and i have question for you.it so many times gorbachev was here as private citizen and why you don't ask him the question which you cannot answer. what's the reason? >> demetri, i did ask him this question and interviewed him twice for this book. his answer to me was, i specifically asked him, did he know of a secret organization that carried out the biological weapons research. he says well, you know there's a fine line between offense and defense of research in biology and he just assembled and then you change the subject. he didn't want to answer. >> wayne? >> wayne mary. of course we have to relate your topic to iran. so would you address to the specific questions. one, what indications he may bet that any of those cylinders were disks? in fact, did they end up in iran? and second a more broader question which is during the 1990's of this program was under the tall. and in my own state department dealing with the russian leadership was pretty clear that this was a state within a state and that even they thems

i caught her closet eating just like i was when i was little. fact that they're all accountable, it works. my wife lost 70 pounds while i was on the show. >> are you confident that you and your family are going to lick this? >> absolutely. i'm very confident, and they are very confident, and it's going to happen, whether we're on the show or not, it's going to happen. >> all right, we'll take i abreak. it's time for a home ininspecti, we're going to look at what's in nicole's refrigerator. veveveveve >>> carnie wilson and jillian cahill are with us here in l.a. in north carolina, tamika is now at the family refrigerator. what's in there, what are you going to show us. >> okay, larry, i'm glad you want to look and see what's in here. we have a lot of fruits and vegetables, especially cucumbers, we really love cucumb cucumbers, we eat a lot of these. we have fresh green beans. we have spinach in here as well. we don't use regular cheese any more, everything is fat free or low fat. apples. we don't use regular like miracle whip, we use mayo with ol
