if you will they're doing everything possible to exacerbate the conflict in kiev senator john mccain. wasn't given december as well as victoria nuland was assistant secretary of state for european and your asian affairs as well as catherine ashton from the european union and for you know at least a month and a half two months and doing everything from a simple to not only provide some you know false legitimacy to violent protest in kiev but also quite unilaterally and entirely showing their hand as being you know against that of the incumbent government of president victory on a covert. a negotiation between opposition leaders and president going to covert have not yielded any results they are set to resume later on thursday but the opposition has slapped the president with a twenty four hour deadline to call a snap election and launch what they say is their own shadow parliament however the prime minister has said the government will not accept any ultimatums though it is ready to meet the protesters halfway. or to stay with us here on r.t. international will be bringing you the latest from kiev

>>supervisor john avalos: do you have any preferences on that? >>supervisor london breed: yeah, i think that given the fact that we do have a draft and there will be input and changes made in order to get us where we need to go, that we shouldn't have to wait until the next lafco meeting in order to move this rfp forward. i do think that as much as we want involvement from puc at this point, we as lafco should take the leadership on putting out there to the public exactly what we are looking for because ultimately we want a comprehensive plan. i think we should maybe allow the chair to give the final say that this is good and we can put it out there once we get our feedback and make the appropriate changes to get it where we need it to go. >>supervisor john avalos: great. thank you. okay. item b within this item. is that miss miller? >> this item will be dropped from the agenda. our mou goes to the end of fiscal year 14-15. we have another year 1/2 on the mou. that was my fault. we don't need to hear that item. >>supervisor john avalos: great. if there are no other comments from the panel. we'll g

. >> i think john mccain has given him his back to him a little bit. is a little bit but he's not exactly in the mainstream of the base of the republican party, which is really the challenge for chris christie, he was not exactly popular there. >> no, the base of the republican party views him as a rhino republican in name only for a whole host of reasons. they don't think he's a conservative. what he did with president obama in the closing days -- >> the hugging. >> of the campaign, with sandy hook, to them, that he's dead to them. >> this is why this is particularly bad for christie more than some other candidate. christie needs the establishment republicans and whole game plan for winning the nomination is to have the aura of electability, he knows he won't get the grass root support. they are going to pay attention and remember this. this could be bad news for him. >> the ability for christie to have himself imposed upon the republican base the way romney did, that imperiled by the scandal? >> if you were a republican governor and he's ahead of the

john foster dulles was given the job. the next morning he went to new york and washington dc and he went to see the secretary of state, who happened to be uncle bert and he told uncle bert that we should send two warships to cuba to the eastern end of the island, one on the north and one on the south and then they should put down the rebellion. and one day later they were dispatched and they did go to cuba and 6000 marines crushed the liberal rebellion and this is the kind of thing that they were used to doing that was their job and that is what they did for a living. and that is what made them a desirable firm. this was the third force that shaped the dulles brothers. and the interest of big american corporations in the united states were the same thing. this was the way that they saw the world and they took that into office. and so did he see them being shaped by missionary calvinism in the lead of the united states into which they were born. and the idea of american corporate power. and so in the early 1950s, both of t

indicated which is sort of contrary to the direction that's been given, i think internally to staff to not work on any longer. >>supervisor john avalos: if that's the issue, then it's a version of the question that i posed earlier because if the puc expects it's budget to be approved, i would imagine that it would allow it's staff to do work that the legislative body in this case anticipates or expects that will be done on this program. >> i think that's true. the item that we drop, the mou which talks about working cooperatively with one another on developing the program and particularly dealing with issues that are a contention. which i recall when there was a no vote on the rate, there were a number of issues that were expressed as the reasons why. part of the rfp is to explore answers to many of those questions. >> >>supervisor david campos: i would hope the general manager reconsider working with staff on this. >> i do too. >>supervisor john avalos: i was hoping that they would work with them through sfpuc and we have funding as well and next year is what should be in line. is there currently staff that can be helpful and

many have just given up looking. but john fugazzi isn't there yet. >> the only way you can have hope is to keep at it. i mean, let's be honest, that's what america is about. >> reporter: the weak job growth stunned economists. it may have been the weather, but it may also make the fed take a second look at cutting back on stimulus. >> pelley: anthony, thanks very much. tonight there is new evidence that the governor's office in new jersey went to great lengths to manage the fallout from a massive traffic jam last september. governor chris christie, a leading republican, said yesterday he was humiliated when he learned that a member of his staff and others orchestrated four days of tieups in the borough of fort lee to punish the democratic mayor there. late today, we got ahold of thousands of pages of government and private e-mails in the case and elaine quijano has been looking through them. elaine, what do these e-mails show? >> reporter: scott, these e- mails show what happened in the days leading up to, during and after th

>>supervisor john avalos: i think there has been some discussion about having a joint sfpuc lafco meeting. given how there has been a huge neglect or real effort to not move cca forward that i felt has been going on and a lot of rationals that have come out even when the mayor came and spoke about why he didn't support cleanpowersf. i felt there was a lot of information that didn't come out. trust is really low right now. i really want to see some real verification on how there is some proposed or per expected shortfalls within the power program and i want that presented at the lafco meeting. i also think we should have more conversations too about how to make clean power happen and in the meantime between this meeting and the next if we do a joint meeting, have some real conversations about what possibilities there might be. i don't think it's a matter of just asking for money. i think it's a matter of ideas that can be shared that could create an opening for the passage of clean powersf in other form. >> okay. in talk wth general manager very interested in going fort with the general meeting a

this is the first time in history that two official responses are given by women. so john war on male responders. >> mike lee ticked off not just proposals for reform, but the congressman and senators behind those proposals for reform. answering the democratic critique that republicans never bring ideas. he actually opened the door for republicans to come out in favor of gay marriage saying, unequality -- denying citizens their right to define marriage in their states as traditionally or as broadly as their diverse values dictate. this was a new message from republicans, and i welcome it. >> first of all, i'm very happy that you were able to see almost half of your party's responses on a big night like that. however, i also got a chance to hear rand paul, who couldn't even bring himself to say that americans deserve to have a minimum wage. so is that a core value of your party that not having a minimum wage -- >> most conservatives acknowledge that it will result in -- [ all talking at once ] >> let's just clarify for people watching, there was the official response, there

my guy, john edwards, had come out and given a speech saying he had made a mistake when he voted for it. at this point everybody in the party was moving towards being against the war, which, you know, and so she -- yeah, it's a political campaign for president. i don't think there is anything wrong with had she been secretary of state and done that, yeah, i think that would have been a mistake. >> i think it's lousy any time. this is one place you don't play politics. >> you know, again on the schizophrenic nature of the book, he says that she was a great secretary of state, a really strong on national security and an ally he could count on on security issues. in the book he says that and then does this sort of off handed, said that she was political in her decision against the iraq surge, not afghanistan. >> that's what i said with mayor giuliani. so weird on one hand he slams someone and then he says he is the best person. >> he slams himself. in the book he does. it's pretty interesting. >> joe, nice to see you. >> thank you. >> straight ahead, dennis rodman's bizarre birthday cel
