. >> senator, it is very laudable, what you're saying but there is a contradiction there. if there is no risk of a default in your eyes, why are you wasting time making the provisions? >> you're putting words in my mouth. i didn't say there is no rick of a default. there is no rick. there is a risk that we won't be able to pay all the obligations. we would pay our debt service. we would pay social security, active duty military. there are departments in this government that wouldn't be fully funded. until we reach a solution and raise the debt limit, we would have this awkward period which is why i'm not advocating it. i still think we ought to differentiate between really vital items and the thing we have to wait on until we have a solution. >> most i'm i've talked to think that although it is a catastrophic situation, it is unlikely we'll end in default and we're seeing political posturing at its most ferocious. much more worrying for the long material economy of america is the possibility of america's credit rating being brought down. if that was to happen, and we are h

resolution 268, despite the fact that it has virtually unanimous support from this body and includes a laudable reaffirmation of the united states' commitment to a negotiated solution of the conflict falls short of the kind of leadership i believe is needed. this resolution chasses the palestinians and for pursuing recognition of their state at the united nations. the first point, i think we should give the palestinian authority which it has done an impressive job of developing institutions and its economy in the west bank some credit. they have tried to provide the leadership to pursue the goals that we have encouraged them to do and they have, i think, done so in terms of developing democratic institutions in a way that we should be proud of because we had a role in that, a major role. there is no indication they have any inclination to allow hamas to jeopardize those gains that have been achieved in the west bank and thus far the reconciliation agreement between hamas and fa fattah has any evidence to yield a agreement. in many ways, the purpose for bringing forth this resolution is moot. sh

friend from indiana as well as my friend from new jersey that the weapons activities programs are laudable, especially as they relate to the safety and security of our weapons stockpile but i think level funding at 2011 levels is adequate. and when you look at the weatherization programs and what they do, you can't dispute it. low income individuals cannot afford to spend money on efficiency. it's just not possible. yet when they do it has a positive impact on all sorts of other programs. one of which is liheap. as was mentioned by my friend from new york these programs pay back on the order of seven, eight, nine, 10, $11 to $1 spent, not only in savings to low income individuals but also to the federal government. this is good for the economy, it puts people to work, it's good for energy efficiency and lessening our security on -- our dependence, ratherer, on foreign sources of oil, and it does contribute to the long-term national energy goals for this country as i see them. so all that mr. tonko and i are looking for is level funding for fiscal year 2011, for both the nuclear weapons pro

although both may be laudable some statutes passed by congress and the track from the unofficial word. commissioner moehler alluded to this with respect to licensing issues. someone exam will is for back taxes in 2003 and it came out of the financial services committee and he required the ftc to conduct 30 separate rulemaking studies and reports. some of those obligations of course made sense. but at one point around 2005 shortly after he came to the commission, about one third to have a very financial practices staff and the folks at collector mortgage fraud are actually spending time writing reports because they were obligated we do a congress tells us to do. we've been writing reports. we are very good at it but in fact i stash of should've been spending more time going after the bad guys preying on american homeowners. also consistent with the goal of reducing unnecessary burdens commission staff is now working on reports by statute enacting statutes themselves to divert businesses were commission racers is from our pricing were ecstatic identified suited to such reports at least

protecting consumers is not only laudable, it is something i consider my highest duty. this has the ball into an attempt to create a regulatory scheme that restructures the mortgage system of the united states. it is beyond the scope of the responsibility of attorneys general. here are the specific concerns i have. alabama has made the policy decision to admit non-judicial foreclosures. mandated principal reduction is bad public policy. it creates questions of fundamental fairness and justice. it would create an incentive for homeowners to default, requiring lenders to reduce mortgage balances. denying people access to the credit they need to purchase a home. a settlement should not impair an efficient foreclosure process. i am skeptical of any system that forces people to violate an agreement. in alabama, we have over 130 community banks. they are an important economic driver in the state. we must not increase their regulatory burden. thank you for holding this important debate and i look forward to answering your questions. >> thank you all. i would like to begin ques

i agree with what i think is a laudable goal senator rubio has laid out, namely, bringing this to a conclusion as rapidly as possible, sending signals to the leadership around gadhafi that we support his rapid removal or departure from power. but i, frankly, at the end of the day lacking a clear resolution between those two points, i'm inclined to leave it to the judgment of the department of state. >> i'm going to recognize senator menendez, i understand every colleague wanted to reserve their right on this to vote, you know, according as they see fit in terms of the advice this morning of the legal advisor. and with respect to the second part of this, obviously, that is being worked on right now through all the legal hoops and we do have legislation before us in the senate that will further that. this is a sense of the senate and i want to emphasize that to everybody so it doesn't tie anybody's hands. senator rubio? >> i just want to say this and i think it's important to understand that even though what we do here in the minds of some may be symbolic in nature and it -- it does send a messa
