entrusted to help him with these crawling exercises was a valley, an african-american valet named irvincduffy. and he was very well trusted by the roosevelt family. i always thought how remarkable that is that he didn't really want his family to see him in this situation, he didn't really entrust some of his other close advisers, but he trusted irvin mcduffy so much that not only he would help, but he would not talk about it which is a very important part of being a worker at the white house. >> host: yes. roosevelt's racial attitudes, i and did initiate the order after there was a threat on washington. but did he bond with any of these people? >> guest: no, i don't believe so. and as you say, the steps he took he had to be pressured into doing. a demonstration or something of that kind. so, you know, he was not, again, a paragon of -- in his policies on racial issues. some steps he took, but -- and eleanor was always pushing for more. she wanted, she did manage to persuade him to have the armed forces provide recreation facilities for african-american soldiers, but he never, for instan

it was the talk of the committee's meeting in irvine yesterday. davenport sent another e-mail yesterday ahead of the meeting apologize for the incident and asking for forgiveness. >> she didn't send out anything out on party letterhead. didn't send out inflammatory statements out there and didn't sign anything as committee member. she thought she was doing something quietly most folks that might have found humor in it. >> the e-mail should haven't happened in the first place. despicable. it shouldn't have happened. it was poor judgment. >> the local party chairman says despite her sincere apology he condemns her action and says she should resign. >>> stop animal exploitation now says santa cruz biotechnology has a history of violating the animal welfare act. the non-profit provided pictures from two usda inspections at the company last year. and the government report that documented malnourished and sick goats. >> within one year's time, racked up more than 11 pages of animal welfare violations. many of which deal with adequate veterinary care. al

the first time i did it, uc irvine, i was worried are people going to get the joke. or the many jokes. will people understand the spirit with which i'm presenting this. they got the immediate. that was the thing i was pleased by. and i also presented this at a conference called zombie con which is exactly what it sounds like. i was worried they were going to be way too strict about zombies to understand what i was doing and they also got it completely. so i think the key thing was i had to write it in such a way, and i am in all systems, there's a lot of footnotes in his book. there's a long bibliography in this book. i will defend every footnote and every scholarly citation in the book. i think factually everything i wrote, assumingzombies exist, were correct. but that said, just the absurdity of the premise i think is what allows people to laugh when they read it. the one other thing i'll say what i presented this, it's been funny because in some ways i get two kinds of responses that it depends on how much education the person has had in international relations. f

irvin. >> as usual, i thought your statement was terrific. i agree with 99% of it. i thought a number of the comments he made were well set, like the comment that there was not one 8 year program but 8 one year programs. you said on page two of your statement that outsourcing management to contractors should be limited because it complicates lines of authority. i would have thought your position, like mine, would be that outsourcing management to contractors should never occur. i cannot conceive any circumstances under which that is a proper. can you explain? >> perhaps commissioner, you have a more exact analysis. i think we are in general agreement on this point. there may be particular at narrow circumstances hwwhere outsourcing may be appropriate. however, our work supports the general principle and your reportingin your that contracts -- management contractors need to be done by government officials. for example, during the cpa, the government hired a-ecomm to oversee the 12 contractors. it was also bidding on other contracts in iraq. that problem was alluded t

irvin, commissioner. >> thank you, mr. chairman, like size to all of you for being here. i commend each of you for the work that you do and your os do. i had a high regard for ngos in general, and, of course, for the hearing, i should tell you that the work has increased. it was a predicate for the first question, which is a oober question. both you ms. richard and cole said it very well. given the common sense principals, i'm not just talking about the principals that relate in the document, just the whole range of principals with local support and local guying in which necessarily leads to sustainability. you are not working with the military, or not being seen as a arm of the military, the fact that you are generally there for years before conflict begins and that you are there after conflict ends, the small amounts of money that are involved such that they -- that money can be sustained and can be absorbed by the local government, your tendency to rely on local workers, et cetera, all of this leads me to ask, the overarching question of whether, you were going, seems

we talked to gary irvin. they have made some management changes and i would be for to them to explain what they have done but we communicate with them on a routine basis. chris is talking to gary irvin every week. >> you have this on track. how much money is needed to keep on track? is it in 2012? >> we are working to complete our baseline bottoms up assessment that will allow us to bring you a draft baseline assessment hopefully by the end of this month. >> this is not argumentative. i am trying to drill deeper on this issue. >> we do not think -- we do not think we need money in fiscal 11 that will allow us to continue to carry the program to the point where we can make what we think now is a reasonable launch date of 2018. if something does happen and we find we have more funds we will put them to use to it celebrate the testing we are doing and some of the other -- we right now are looking at how much we need to add to 2012 for this committee. >> going back to the cassoni report they need $500 million eac
