utility issues we were talking about, karl mentioned how utility issues can be a big thing. karl you want to talk about that. >> in dealing with upgrades if you had a space that wasn't a restaurant previously, getting water and sewer is not the issue. getting power and gas from pg and e is. from the beginning get that process started. get the applications into pg and e. the timing is frustrating. we are working with pg and e to find an efficient way to get it going. you start at the beginning where you need a utility room for your gas separate from electric. that's part of your original framing and improvements to the building. but you don't get the engineer drawings back for a while. please get the applications in immediately there are blackout periods between thanksgiving and christmas you are not allowed to do trenching in the streets in shopping districts and large commercial districts. that can impact you because all the sudden you will not be able to move forward. >> a lot of lead time. have to jump right on it. yes , sir. >> [inaudible]. >> forethe applications for ga

watching jon karl's piece, it really seems like that spirit seems to be dead, at least temporarily. >> reporter: forget about bipartisanship for the foreseeable future. these new republicans have no incentive to work with president obama. and these tea partiers that are joining them are only going to push them to more confrontation. the only way you're going to get them to the table is if president obama looks to give significant concessions. look to the state of the union address for him to start to jot line things on spending, but it's not going to be for awhile. >> what is the relationship now between republican leadership and these incoming tea party insurgents? >> reporter: they are rolling out the welcome mat. this is going to be a tea party celebration here in washington, both symbolic, like the reading of the constitution, as well as the substantive, like the new house rules that are essentially written by tea partiers. but really this is more about -- the establishment isn't just trying to show some love for the tea partiers. they know they're going to need their votes on som

is a great deal of despair, and it was a book written by karl barks that in the aftermath of the warook down this naÏve belief that we were going to create a utopian or a christian society on earth. and deliver church never recovered from that. my anger towards the liberal church comes over the issue of the christian right. i've a problem with laws by the way because you know, i have read the bible as closely as jim wallis has come and i can tell you that it is utterly inconsistent. and our whole passages that are morally repugnant, and to somehow deified that book which does, although his politics are good, i just find that kind of thing intellectual bankrupt and kind of frightening. there are many ways to achieve the moral life. every society, every religion produces value and great figures, including islam i would add, the rights of on behalf of the oppressed to fight the oppressive. some of those people embrace religious language, some did not. and there are numerous routes. i happen to come out of the church but hardly believe that's an exclusive have to define authority. and i

a 40-year-old congressional rebel with a cause and jon karl spent the day with him. >> reporter: he's been given more power over the federal budget than anybody in congress. paul ryan, the republican with the budget axe. he's a little like the guy in the movie "dave," the accidental president who sets out to fix the budget, line by line. >> that's another $47 million, so, this is good. we're doing good. >> reporter: but in the movie, dave only has to find $650 million in savings. ryan wants to cut several trillion over the next ten years. i mean, how do you go in here and find the kind of savings you want to find and how do you -- >> i've been reading these things since i was 22 years old. you go through it line by line. direct loans, this is perfect. that is a new spending on auto pilot that has no congressional oversight and it gave the illusion that they were cutting spending. >> reporter: he's a 40-year-old father of three who worked as a congressional staffer before getting elected in his own right at just 28 years old. at a forum last year, he questioned the president with his s

jon karl is back on capitol hill tonight. with an extremely bipartisan call about security and about this week ahead. jon, what have you learned. >> reporter: quite a call, david. with boehner and pelosi, and 800 members and staff on that call, to talk about those things, lot of talk from the leaders of this being the unified response of one congress, one congress to this tragedy, to that end, they have canceled all business next week. all regular business, instead, they will meet on wednesday to have a resolution to honor grab rielle giffords and the other victims of the shooting. there will be a security briefing with all members to talk about their own security. >> jon, we first touched on this last night. is it realistic to think more than 500 members of house and senate could have their own security out in their districts? >> 535 members, sometimes they have six, eight events a day, extraordinary. many of them are saying they don't want security to come between them and their constituents. one democrat leader had this to

there's even talk of a big symbolic move at the state of the union in a week and a half, and jon karl is on capitol hill tonight. jon, tell us what they're talking about. >> reporter: well, diane, you know the state of the unions, year after year, you see democrats sitting on one side, republicans sitting on the other side. when one side hears something they like, they jump up and applaud, the other side sits on their seats. now, there's a new proposal by a democratic senator to have the two sides literally cross the aisle and sit republican next to democrat, democrat next to republican. so, the chamber, instead of looking politically segregated, one on one side, one on the other, you would have a mix, sitting right next to each other. if nothing else, diane, it would certainly change the atmosphere in that chamber on that night. >> well, again, a great symbolic move. and jon, big news made today about a republican who generated a lot of controversial headlines last year? >> reporter: yeah, michael steele, the chairman of the republican party, he is out. this is a chairman who led the

important point that none of the social and political theorists of the late 19th century including karl marx understood that in a system of permanent war and skillful mass propaganda you could get the masses to call for their own enslavement marx writes about war is touring the prussian war and he expresses the hope that prussia will win because the will make the german workers state closer to coming to fruition. and we have a essentially been emasculated ever since. so radical movements are a consciously destroyed and liberal movements engage in a kind of internal cannibalization where they pushout figures who have a moral conscience, who have some kind of economy, branding them as sympathetic economies. of course many of these people who were pushed out or not communists, although having lived in europe including italy there is nothing under our constitution that prohibits a communist party. i believe that we purport to support the free exchange of political thoughts and ideas, and the liberal class without that counterweight of radical movements to keep them honest began to disembowe

with more on that, here's jonathan karl. >> reporter: they have canceled all business next week, all regular business. instead they'll meet on wednesday to have a resolution honoring gabrielle giffords and the other victims of the shooting and also a security briefing with all members, the fbi and the capitol police to talk about their own security. and many of them are saying they don't want security to come between them and their constituents, including one democrat we spoke to today. one democratic leader had this to say. >> i think we need to recognize that we're a representative body. and our title, representative, is a meaningful one. and we need to not build a security cocoon around us so significant that the public doesn't feel like they can't have access to us. >> one democrat, one republican of utah told politico that they will be packing heat. they will be taking guns with them when they go to events back in their districts now because they are so concerned about security. >> that was abc's jonathan karl. the house speaker john boehner told lawmakers on a conference call s

i was talking to karl rove and i wanted to rescue a question. host: go ahead.ler: karl rove, is the lobbyist? he came in with sarah palin to start the tea party. after the election last november they had 200,000 votes for our good man, ted strickland. and they said that karl rove was out bringing in a lot of folks from overseas. i am wondering if that is connected. can he do this and take out ohio like he did? host: karl rove was reported to be one of the leaders of one of the outside groups that spent a lot of money in this election to have television advertisements in targeted states. i will not know if he was involved in the governor's race in ohio. clearly we know that in 2010 both sides spent a huge amount of money trying to change both congress and the governorships. partly because this is the year that will start with congressional redistricting. they were particularly important in terms of deciding how states like ohio are going to be affected. host: michigan, republican line. caller: thinking about this subject this morning, are the election laws relat

there was a parade of cars coming down the hill that were playing pinball and bumper karl even thoughdidn't want to. thankfully no one was injured. what ice will do for you. >> here at home beautiful conditions. look at that! from sutro this -- excuse me, mount tamalpais. not as windy up in the bay areas. some of those winds still howling through the valleys. a stout northerly wind about 10 to 15 mph. watch out for those breezes to make it down around the bay also. let's take a look at the temperatures. some of the tulie fog tried to sneak into the east bay. concord and antioch still in the mid to upper 40s in fairfield. everybody else the mid to upper 50s. even santa rosa at 60. around the monterey bay and inland, either 50 or 57 degrees. sunshine and temperatures today breezy at times also. highs today will be well above average. again contrasting with what the rest of the country's dealing with. mostly clear are calmer and cool tonight. winds keep the atmosphere turned over and warm like it was this morning in some areas. the next two weeks, in fact the next 15 days looking dry. do

karl rove also had one, courage and consequence. any comments about those other books classics >> guest: i think what we can read about is a lot of people want to understand how that administration made the choices they did. it almost more importantly, you know, there's always going to be a bit of contrariness on. so if you got one set of folks in the white house, you want to understand the other side of things. so i think that's what we can read into it. plus, they're pretty compelling books. condoleezza rice's book of growing up in alabama. and you think karl rove has 600,000 in sales on that one, pretty huge. postcodes of condoleezza rice's book to pretty well? >> guest: at some numbers about 150,000, which is nice. i think there's a chance of the next one farmer might actually do a little bit better because that is drilling more into her time in the administration and that should be coming out in about a year or so. >> host: right, i should just mention it otb either interviewed all of the authors of the bush administration memo

karl hasz has done a fantastic job. vince courtney, as mentioned earlier, would be a great addition to the puc. henry kamm, herb cohn, relocation. leona bridges, resonate and the call that we have got and show that she is a truly exceptional candidate. leslie katz for the port. these are great appointments and i find it difficult to sit and claimed that the mayor is not properly doing his job by letting us vote for interim mayor -- i understand that point. bear in mind, of the four of us, i am the only one who will not be able to participate in the interim mayor vote if it takes place in the new board. i will also be the only one nonparticipating in this particular committee. the decision that are made here. so there is a bit of hypocrisy with the argument big as we could then place that argument back on ourselves and the rules committee not doing the job presented before them. of course, also, we did schedule a hearing. [applause] i think it is something that probably should be said. obviously, i will not be in support

[laughter] >> nixon, ron walker, sandy quinn, ben and karl, thanks for having us here today. i will give you some background on this book. "going home to glory" is the title of the book proposal that we circulated to new york publishers in the summer of 1976. julie and i had moved to new york from washington that summer, and ben stein, our host today, encouraged us to start considering some publishing interest that he had encountered about us. and we circulated this proposal entitled "going home to glory" and we did so at ben's suggestion. we were seeing a lot of ben in those days, both in new york and in washington when he was a young editorial writer for "the wall street journal," one of the youngest and their history, one of the best. he authored an article that made a big impression on us. i don't know if he remembers this but we do but it was an article entitled bunkhouse logic, and while i do not remember the particulars of this article, the gist of it went sort of as follows. you can't achieve or win anything in life unless you were at the table. now there are other wa
