and for the people that will argue that if you build a 20-foot fence i'll show you a 21-foot ladder, that's got to be the silliest and the weakest and the most specious argument i've heard here on the floor of the united states congress. i have heard the secretary of homeland security say, build a 50-foot fence and i'll show you a 51-foot ladder. madam speaker, what in the world could that mean? if you build a rocket that will fly to the moon, i'll show you a rocket that will fly a mile past the moon. so what? what does that mean? they're not going to be build a 51-foot ladder and if they do we're going to be sitting there with our sensery devices, our roads, our monitoring and we're going to make sure if they can get over that fence they don't get to the next one and if they get over that one we'll make sure they don't get to the next one. i have designed a concrete wall and it's not the only barrier or tool. when those of us talk about the necessity for extending the fence and the wall on the southern border and building double fences and walls, the argument against it becomes a si

they feel people who don't do the right thing get pushed up the ladder ahead of them. i think there is a sense of unfairness in our country today which goes to the heart of some of the you are yous we have in our policy. >> the biggest unfairness is that the biggest beneficiary from your manifesto is the three richest people in the country who get 200,000 each. now if you want to be fair you don't give people an inheritance tax and then cut tax credits for middle class families. you don't cut the trust fund. >> poor mary asked about politics and now we are talking tax credits. >> you wanted to talk about tax credits as well. >> we need to make sure people are responsible where he have made big mistakes. it is a fact there are a number of mp's who flip their home from one to the next and paying from your taxpayer-funded expenses to buy properties and do them up and sell them examine buy them and sell them and pocket the difference in personal profit and still haven't been held to account. you can't move on unless people have done something seriously wrong. expenses can

they tell the people who do not do the right thing get pushed up the ladder ahead of them. there's a sense of unfairness in our country today that goes to the heart of some of the policies. >> the biggest beneficiary from the manifesto is the 3000 richest people in the country you get two hundred thousand pounds each, and parents and -- each from an inheritance tax. you do not cut the chow trust fund. you do not cut to the school budget. >> pour mary asked about politics. she is being told about tax credits. we need to make sure that people are responsible where they have made big mistakes. there is the fact that many mp's have fled their homes from one to the next using taxpayer money and have not been held to account. you cannot move on a less people have done something serious. it has made people incredibly angry. i think there are now starting to get angry by politicians saying that my party was better than the others. frankly, we haven't all had problems with this -- we have all had problems with this. do not anyone try to put themselves on a pedestal on this issue. le

truck company 12 a ladder truck with lieutenant novak was among the first to arrive there.ers faced this fire without water since the first three closest engines were unavailable at the time. still novak rushed the fire, rescuing one person and then he went back in. >> eventually, we're not sure what happened yet, but the fire over came him. he had to go out a window. he was hanging out of the window and eventually he had to go and 2 1/2 floors to the ground. >> reporter: fire union representatives fear that novak could have suffered career ending injuries in that fire. the two closest engines that night were on other calls. the other closed as part of the city's budget cutting rotating closure plan. it's a trend that some fire union representatives say is becoming all too yar familiar ad one that they believe is putting their men and women at risk. i'm megan gilliland, fox 45 morning news inside video from a helmet camera posted to youtube leads to the arrest of a harford county man. >> get off the motorcycle. get motorcycle. state police. >> anthony graver was pulled over

are extremely patriotic and want to know that their fellow americans are doing well and that the ladder of opportunity has not been pulled up as republicans always try to do but that it's still there for americans who want to work hard and climb that ladder, from the poor or middle class up to a higher income level. i just want to talk about some results from the tax cut. this citizens for tax justice report says the following. the analysis notes that 53% of americans believe that the president has kept taxes the same. 24% believe the president has raised taxes and only 12% believe the president has cut taxes. but the fact is, he's cut taxes overwhelmingly. this is part of the spin we're trying to correct tonight. by analysis of the citizens for tax justice, tax changes embraced by president obama, they find 98% of all working family, i just said 95%, but according to this think tank, it's higher than that. the citizens for tax justice also observed one reason why broader american public may not realize that the president has cut their 2009 taxes is that the tax cut that affected most p

different times the balance has been different ways when marty was a young lawyer climbing up the ladder to make partner. i remember saying to him about my son, this child is 4 years old and you haven't yet taken him to the park. then i got my first good job in dees when jimmy carter in dees when jimmy carter appointed me to the deessirkt -- d.c. sirkt -- circuit. everyone assumed i was commuting from new york to d.c. marty transferred to georgetown. there was no question that was the way we would live. he has become a super chef. i haven't made a meal in 30 years. so the support that i have had from him because he believed that my work originally was as important but now more important. than his. but it takes that kind of strong man, or whoever your partner is, someone who never regards you as threatening, but someone who is really good and who should be helped along her way. >> certainly can't improve on that. if you all have questions, if you can just come to the microphones, we would be happy to expand this conversation a little. >> on a similar note, i was wondering because you were

standards to the point that it is very difficult for that expected to cite them and just turning up the ladder, to cite those kind of conditions at the transcending serious violation. and found that you almost have to have explosion to occur to find a serious violation in that regard, that tells me we have a problem in the way the standards are being interpreted and the way they're being applied in this country but it's over years of litigation through the review commission. when an inspector goes to the mine to have full authority to use their tools whatever they have at their disposal, if they determine a condition is imminent danger to issue that 1078 order to have the miners removed from that particular into the company fixes that specific problem. i say it is a curtain down. wants a copy puts a curtain back up, they can go back to work. >> mr. main, ventilation is no mister. you can feel it. dust is no mystery. you can taste it, you can smell it and you breathe it in. why, if that is a condition, that one of your inspectors finds that he cannot simply close things down for a period of tim

i've seen in my own constituency the chance to get 1 foot on the housing ladder and it circumstancesge the can increase the mortgage and reduce rents. also reporting responsibility. people who live in the housing associations or cancel homes with a record of good behavior give them a stake in that house so when they move the of the start of some capital to move up the housing ladder. one thing we shouldn't do and this is in the liberal democratic manifesto it is putting the vat on building new homes. the lift the price even higher out of people like anna's reach. it doesn't make sense. >> it comes up -- i talked about how we need to create properties and about the council and freedom to build new homes, they invest the homes needed. i've certainly seen lots designed for one person private property development put up and they should be made available but i also think that there was a rule for good old-fashioned council houses. it's not fashionable these days but i was proud when i was an newcastle the other day to see that the liberal democratic council started building some council h

it sounds like it will be the ladder. we are changes with cooler temperatures and showers on the way. here is what we got as far as temperatures right now. 54 degrees in baltimore as we speak and as you see 51 degrees in hagerstown. that's not so bad. 41 degrees in salisbury. it's mild to start the day. cloudy starts and the showers moving into western counties allegheny county. much of that activity is not moving into central county as well. you will see it moving into the northern part of the state throughout north central part in fact and the eastern shore through this afternoon into the evening not getting out of here through midnight tonight. we have the frontal boundary approaching. we will have the showers and temperatures do return as we get into tomorrow is beyond. cloud showers and cooler today. warming tomorrow through the end of the week and showers on monday and through saturday a cooler weekend once again. here is candace dold with the traffic edge. candace, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, steve, no

of the border guards told me, look, a 50 foot fence is just going to create a demand for 51-foot ladders. we're not going to solve it that way. and in terms of the identification, now, it really hearks back to the 9/11 debates. a lot of the investigation into 9/11 was to how these people got into the country with forged dockments and so forth. so the fix was to have docksments that could not be forged. that hasn't gotten very far. and i think we have happily not had another terrorist attack on that scale. if we did, i think once again ulede see the immigration and the terrorism issue uniting in a push for more solid documentation. host: and going from issue to issue, but going back to the early point of mike allen, does the politicalization of d.c. mean that the drudge fiication is over, referring to matt drudge. if so, hooray. guest: well, there has been commentary after the piece on mike allen about who would you rather have cure rating your news, for your morning briefing sheet which is essentially what playbook is, mike drudge or mike allen. so there is a contest going on there, and
