. >> marsha blackburn has already introduced legislation to reverse what the fcc did when it comes to net neutrality. do you support her legislation? >> i do support her legislation. i do not think net neutrality was necessary. there is no problem we are addressing. there is no market failure. this is one part of our economy that is working. i do not think we need the legislation. we have exceeded our authority. there is no place where congress has given us jurisdiction of the internet. i think it is a healthy discussion to talk about the internet and jurisdiction of the internet and what to do. but i think it is congress's choice. i think congress should continue to have these discussions and tell us what the proper role of the fcc is. >> do you think the court will uphold the net neutrality regulations? >> i find it highly likely that the court will overturn our role. not to get to legal, what we have done is to base our jurisdiction on a section of the communications act that half of -- communications act that asks to get rid of broadband deployment. to say that net neutrality rule

city costs estimated included poor facility investigations and costs for other city departments, marsha the police department and the mta. this resulted in a total 77.3 million in costs, new costs, and offset by the estimated revenues, primarily sales tax and hotel tax related to hosting the events for a net cost of 57.8 million. we also reviewed the long-term development rights entities have been discussed some what already today so i will quickly say how we approach this. we looked at 3 which would have been transferred to the event authority under the original agreement and they are listed here. the term was that no rent would be paid to the ports. incremental property taxes would be used to reimburse the event authority for an least a portion of the $150 million required expenditures. recent the highest and best uses of the three properties as identified by the real estate consultants. these were the uses as assumed. pier 32 had a mixed use and this would occur after 10 years of releasing the facility's construction for the event which would be on a shorter-term basis. on pier 50, t

. >> this is the first time that i ever got more applause than marsha. [laughter] >> speaker, governor bryant, and thanks to you and thanks to all of you in the legislature for that warm welcome. but more important for the work that we've done. this is a bittersweet time for me. let us start off by recognizing general freeman is here. while we don't have as many of our national guard in harm's way as we have sometimes in the past when i made this speech, we should never forget to be thankful for the sacrifice of our guardsman and the sacrifice of all of our people in uniform, law enforcement, firefighters, corrections, and conservation officers, emts. so let's start tonight by if you would join me in a moment of silent prayer for these men and women and for their safety and success. [silence] >> thank you. this is the 8th and final time that marsha and i will appear on this podium to deliver my state of the state address. you know, when marsha and i married, 39 years ago, i knew i had out-married myself. i just didn't know that over this seven years you

. >> marsha blackburn who sits on the committee is already introduced legislation to reverse what the sec did when it comes to net neutrality. do you support her legislation? >> i do support for legislation. there are two points here. i don't think the net neutrality was necessary. there's no problem we are addressing, no market failure. this is the one part of the economy that is working, so from a fundamental standpoint i don't think we need the legislation that the second part is we have exceeded our authority. there is no place where in our statute the congress has given jurisdiction over the internet as we have exceeded our authority. it's a very healthy discussion to talk about the internet and the jurisdiction of the internet and what to do, but i think that is the congress choice, happy the congress will continue to have these discussions and tell us what the proper role of the fcc is. >> do you think the court is clear to uphold the net mitchell the regulation because many have speculated there are short to be lawsuits challenging it. >> i find it highly likely the court will

of not to see you otherwise you would be something shooting and me or marsha made their journey three years ago with his wife and four children he watched friends and family die along the way some were shot some died of hunger. but it's all doesn't really know what to do with these refugees last year alone eight hundred thousand arrived just from sudan and eritrea is always party to the convention on the status of refugees which means a constant refugees back home if this would risk their lives but keeping them here is becoming more and more difficult. benjamin corey arm works as a cleaner in a hotel and struggles to make ends meet. i didn't go. and thousands of sudanese share his story poor homes no jobs little money and it's too dangerous to go back to sudan. is again is. going to northern sudan you will be killed and student leaders have said as much if the authorities. really the northern government of sudan finds out that the person has sought asylum in israel this person would be in serious risk of persecution southern sudan is holding a referendum on whether to separate from th

you know when marsha and i married 39 years ago i knew i had out-married myself. i just didn't know that over the seven years you and all the people of mississippi would recognize that fact too. she is not only joining me at every one of these occasions, she has also been part of the work that i've tried to do for our state, specially in the grueling weeks and months after katrina. and i have to tell you i am proud of her. [applause] you know, as i composed this last state of the state address i couldn't help but think about how much things have changed in the seven years. to start with, i did my speech on my new ipad. in 2004, ipad is what marsha called what i did to my waist line during christmas. [laughter] which reflecting back is essential that state government has made changes like we have from when i stood up here that first half of january 2004. the state budget was in awful shape with an enormous shortfall and we had about 3 million dollars in unallocated monies in a rainy day fund. lawsuit abuse had created a health care crisis in our state and every sma

then in may 2007, marsha was at work when she received a call from the mayo clinic in jacksonville. >ng, michael was having a kidney transplant. a gift so valuable that the family has felt obligated to give to others any way they can. all three of the children donate their time each week by playing music at a local nursing home. soshanna also donated hair to locks of love. and when marsha heard about the coat drive she saw another opportunity. >> each of our children have a coat that they just can't wear anymore. it's certainly a pleasure to donate to it someone that does not have one. >> reporter: at burlington coat factory, the howards were able to donate three coats that would help two other families. >> it means a lot. being a single mother of two little girls, times are hard right now. it means the world to me. >> i have been thinking about how i'm going to give my boys new coats. and the weather has changed drastically. it's unexpected. i'm very grateful. >> the best gift we could ever receive was the kidney from someone who's no longer here for to us even thank. and it would ce

i can name off the top of my head easily six or seven republicans, rush limbaugh, glen beck, marsha blackburn, michelle bachmann, sarah palin, despite what the former caller said, is an agitator. and others who have done nothing but rile up the people through the tea party. the tea party is part and parcel of this problem. they show up at rallies with signs depicting the guns. they show up at rallies actually carrying guns. this would have been unheard of to come to a presidential speech with a gun on you. i can say that there have been times when keith olbermann and has said something outrageous but he apologizes the next day. host: have we heard anything that the suspect has been said that political, and there's on -- that political commentators on ready or television have inspired this? caller: it is an assumption but it is a valuable one cents the person he attacked as a politician. he attacked her with a gun. that is being promoted by certain people who attend the tea party with a gun sights on the offices of legislators. they say we have to reload. michelle bachmann like to have her peo

marsha. go ahead. caller: sons can't find jobs and haven't been able to find jobs for over a year now. and they're moving in my house and i can't find a job. so we're all really screwed, because we're only living in a one-bedroom trailer and it's really killing us. host: and is it unemployment keeping you afloat or how are you managing it? caller: unemployment. yeah. host: how many weeks have you been on so far? caller: my son's been on a year, i've been on a year. my other son's been on six months. it's hard to find anything. there's nothing. host: what did you do before you lost your job? [inaudible] host: and your sons, what did they do? caller: worked in a factory that we don't have no more. host: closed up? caller: yes. host: we appreciate the call this morning and thanks for weighing in. again, we want to see what that unemployment figure means for you out there who view us. georgia, democrat's line. good morning. caller: good morning. host: tell us what you think about the 9.4% jobless rate call
