myself and we have ten people here that there's been a request on the republicans that put over john z. lee, john j. pop, george levi russell and christine gearhard baker. i will have them on the agenda next week because at least a couple of these judges reflect additional emergencies and we have been asked by everyone in the chief justice of the united states on -- as back on 1945 bill to televise the supreme court proceedings, sponsored by senators derbin, and schumer. i will vote for it, senator derbin. >> thank you, mr. chairman, let me say at the outset that putting over the judicial nominees is pro forma and i had vise the committee that all the nominees are important in illinois, the two are go going to fill vacancies in some portions of the state. and i also note that the nominee john thorpe is senator kirk's judicial nominee, he and i worked closely to -- i hope that the next time we meet, maybe as soon as next week, we can send our colleague who is recovering, the good news that our nominees are moving forward. but the matter at hand is legislation as of 1945 to permit the televis

they are john lee and jay thor thorpe. john lee, my nominee; jay thorpe, senator kirk's nominee. a bipartisan agreement, a bipartisan committee has led to their selection. no one has questioned their ability to serve well on the federal court. what judge holderman wrote to say was the vacancy as that they would fill have been declared judicial mr. president this is a classic illustration. well-qualified individuals having cleared the hurdles receiving strong bipartisan support in the judiciary committee are mired down on the senate calendar. time after time we steve when we can finally spring one of these nominations it will have 80 or 90 votes of senators who approve it. they're noncontroversial. it is clearly a slowdown strategy so the other side of the aisle saying their prayers that they can replace president obama will literally leave these evacuations for a year or more -- vaiks in a year or more. that is unfair to the process, it's certainly unfair to the nominees. it is unfair to this system of government where we are shirking our responsibility to advise and consent for

lee has never commanded anything more than two companies of marines at harper's ferry on act 16th, 1859, when they stormed the fire engine house and captured five rebels commanded by john brown. harper's ferry, 1859. now, maybe commanding two companies of marines is all you need. the marines contend that way anyway. but here is lee confronting 105,000 yankees who are in the suburbs of richmond. and what did he do? he set his men to work digging trenches, field fortifications. and so this man who had been called granny lee, the overcautious, is now known as the king of spades because all he wants to do is have these trained killers, these warriors, dig ditches with shovels with picks and things and that's not much fun. but that's what soldiers do! and lee points that out. what he wants to do and what he did was to hold richmond with 25,000 troops, fall upon mcclellan's flank which he discovered was exposed by way of stewart's dramatic ride around mcclellan, the raid in june 12-15, 12th through the 15th of 1862. and he's going to fall upon mcclellan's flank with 45,000 troops. and then he's going to bring jackson in from the valley with 20,000 more to attack mcclellan's

from the six floor southeast corner of this building lee harvey oswald shot president john f.. the curator talked about the museum and how the information on the assassination and ensuing investigations is presented. >> what we set out to do was to basically tell what happened and not draw any of our own conclusions but to present what history has told us. and there have been several investigations and various developments over the years. most people accord the to public opinion surveys have never. satisfied that it was just lee harvey oswald but none of these other theories have been proven and as far as many people are concerned, they've all been dismissed. the official explanation is three shots were fired, all from lee harvey oswald and all from that southeast corner sixth story window. the rifle that oswald supposedly used was his. it was traced to him and to his post office box. it was left behind in the building on the sixth floor. the warren commission had a reconstruction done and one of the exhibits upstairs is a scale mod of dealey plaza that they helped study how t

most of all the supervisors, jane kim, carmen chu, mark farrell, john, campos, all have testified during my tenure. mayor lee even went so far as to recommend a charter amendment for this commission to give more weight. it is clearly relevant. as was testified by some people who came and spoke in support of the recommendation they acknowledged this commission matters for a much to the small business community. i really look forward to continuing the good work of this commission and being part of it for the next year. thank you. >> >> i am honored by commissioner dooley's nomination. i think as a new member here, i would prefer an opportunity to get my feet wet first period and spent some time understanding all that goes into this job as a commissioner, let alone out -- a position of responsibility. i would like to reserve this for some other time if you do not mind. president adams: any other commissioner comments? commissioner clyde: i still really have strong reservations about the process of this election and the selection of the executive team for the commission. there will be to commissioners seated nex

lee's. as i began to read this book about john and abigail, i was struck by this is a love story. i didn't know that. john adams is the man,hi man w states government. think about, you know, the united states government. we sort of take it for granted. we have a senate in the house of representatives and all that kind of stuff. well somebody had to think of that. somebody had to sit down and write that down on paper how this was going to work. the person who did that is john adams, you know that. as i got into this story, i began discovering the character of abigail adams. abigail adams is the first american feminist. this woman was 100 years ahead of her time and with no education to support that. in this era, women were not allowed, in many cases, it was illegal for women to get a college education. she was self taught, self read. she readen classics and just anything she could get her hands on that she was allowed to read. and once that was sort of consumed by her, she quickly learned to state her opinion. they was pretty eager to do that and it shows through her writing. this

report to the government lee stated, under ordinary circumstances the federal army should have been destroyed. that's what he was after. well, at that point the union called upon john pope to command something called the army of virginia up -- back up at manassas. and with the combination of new troops and mcclellan's troops, lee sent jackson with one wing of his army to occupy pope and with longstreet and another wing fell upon him and maybe this was lee's greatest battle, second manassas. almost destroyed pope. this was august 30th, 1862. at that point lee confessed. the army is not properly equipped for an invasion of the enemy's territory. it lacks much of the material of war, is feeble in transportation, the animals being much reduced and the men poorly provided with clothes and in thousands of instances, destitute of shoes. still, we cannot afford to be idle. and though weaker than our opponents in men and material and military equipment, we must endeavor to harass if we cannot make our success -- our complete success is not impossible and we shall endeavor to guard from law. so, he's going to maryland. he writes to davis, and this is lee's relationship. he w
