jacking up prices aemergency other things, building bigger stadiums, which means skk more communities for more public money to build bigger stadiums. >> should government try to stop those increases? >> i think government ought to stop those increases number one but number two, if they are willing as a community to give some public money to projects like that, again ask for something in return more than just keeping the football team in washington or in your community. but that's the original point. i think owners should examine their responsibility to the community. you know, they're barrens. they act like barons. they live basically in the back room of the palm restaurant. i find more and more the behavior of professional sports owners to be unseemly in the sense that they want hundreds of millions of dollars from their communities and yet they don't really participate in the problems of those communities. so i think that one of the things we can do is ask these people, you know, to really live in their cities. >> will they talk to you when you call them? >> i've had exactly two con

i don't see any feasible way of jacking the building up to be in alignment, as you can see major portions of the roof and the front facade has definitely sagged and leaned. however it occurred, there is no doubt that the -- significant structural portions of the building are gone. commissioner sugaya and i have not always agreed. though we're pretty good friends. we have not always agreed but in this instance, i would agree with him. i think that the -- in terms of its integrity, based upon the -- secretary of interior standards, is not there. the second portion of it is that the only way one could demolish a landmark is by going through an e.i.r. and an e.i.r. was done. the question then is whether the alternatives or the analysis that was provided in the e.i.r. acts as a -- as a recipe then for what goes into it in the future. in terms of what that development should look like. it is interesting because as i walk through the zellman's main building it is clear that their approach to the preservation of that existing building, the main building, is quite different than what architects wo

the gas prices are jacked up by oil companies that we have helped get along through a lot of things. opportunity that they have -- speculation or whatever you want to talk -- whatever you want to call it -- that's what they do. might be time to discuss that with some of those oil executives. i do not know what the real answer is. one thing that i would point out -- once upon a time we had a 55 m.p.h. speed limit when i was sitting in line waiting for gas in 1974 when jimmy carter was in office. it saved a lot of gallons of gas. as soon as ronald reagan got in, that when south. that's all i have to say about eight -- about it host: c- span.org -- about it. host: dennis, do you buy gas? our prices -- how are prices? caller: $3.48. host: is it time to open the strategic oil reserves? guest: caller: -- caller: no, there is no oil shortage. there's no shortage of oil. that is clear by saudi arabia and all the countries. there's no oil shortage. it's all speculation. the day the oil companies -- all they are doing is using this as an excuse to raise the price of gas and that is all it is.

it was an excuse to jack up the price. the results were a 70% increase.hen we look at iraq, we see a similar pattern. iraq was the biggest threat to the islamic republic. the threat will not be there for the foreseeable future. iran is the most powerful. it will become even more powerful as it leaves the country. it had an initial proxy. it was formed in a run. when they became entrenched, they became their. it attacked semele other shiite. he returned them to iraq in january. he appeared be a long a secular shiite and to remain -- to remove the shiites. i think this is an important question. we also have questions about this relationship. why haven't they paid recommendation? there were flown to the 91 gulf war. why airdate dropping it on iraq? the want to ask if you have a single chicken or a shiite chicken? shiite chickens come from iran. nevertheless, we have seen a panic go through the arab world. it is live and vince -- it is with events in bahrain. if you look at iran relationship with these arab shiite in the country, it is incorrect. we know ther

opening line of that article which said -- quote -- "banks are responding to the troubled economy by jacking up fees on their checking accounts to record amounts." i'm quoting "the wall street journal". they were already raising fees on customers long before this debate began. another line in the same article says the average cost of checking account fees including a.t.m. surcharges and bounced check fees have hit record highs. that was 2008, long before our debate on the floor here. if "the wall street journal" writers can't be bothered to read their own newspaper, i urge them what the bank of america spokeswoman, ann pace said, she said -- quote -- "customers never had free checking accounts. they always paid for it in other ways, sometimes with penalty fees." again, this is a spokesman for the industry being brutally honest about free checking. it astonishes me how much people repeat the banking industry's talking points out fact checking. banks always say if anybody tries to regulate them it will lead to higher consumer fees and checking fees and reporters print it like it's the gospel. has
