mr. bush doesn't seem to want to make. and that really is going to be a challenge for the next president of the united states. i don't think there's any question about it. but i also see a tremendous opportunity now to negotiate with the soviet union to build on the progress that we've made with the inf treaty, which i strongly supported and most democrats did to get those reductions in strategic weapons, to get a test ban treaty, and to really make progress on the reduction of conventional forces in europe. and if we can do that and do it in a way that gets deeper cuts on the soviet side, which is where they ought to come from, then i think we have an opportunity over the long haul to begin to move some of our resources from the military to important domestic priorities that can provide college opportunity for that young woman whose mother wrote me from texas just the other day, from longview, texas. two teachers, a mother and a father who have a child that's a freshman in college, an electri

mr. bush says we are going to put the irs on every taxpayer. that's not what we are going to do. i'm for the taxpayer bill of rights. but i think it's unconscionable, ann, that we should be talking or thinking about imposing new taxes on average americans when there are billions out there, over $100 billion, in taxes owed that aren't being paid. now, i think if we work together on it, and if you have a president that will work with the congress and the american people, we can bring that deficit down steadily, $20, $25, $30 billion a year, build economic growth, build a good strong future for america, invest in those things which we must invest in economic development, good jobs, good schools for our kids, college opportunity for young people, decent health care and affordable housing, and a clean and safe environment. we can do all of those things, and at the same time build a future in which we are standing on a good strong fiscal foundation. senator bentsen said, as you recall at the debate

mr. president, i'm getting time cues and, with all due respect, i'm sorry. bush: excuse me, i don't want to -- i don't want to, no go ahead carole. >> governor clinton. >> i get wound up because i feel strongly --- >> yes you do. >> let me say, first of all, to you that i believe so strongly in the question you ask that i suggested this format tonight. i started doing these formats a year ago in new hampshire. and i found that we had huge crowds because all i did was let people ask questions and i tried to give very specific answers. i also had a program starting last year. i've been disturbed by the tone and the tenor of this campaign. thank goodness the networks have a fact check so i don't have to just go blue in the face anymore. mr. bush said once again tonight i was going to have a $150 billion tax increase. when mr. quayle said that all the networks said, "that's not true. he's got over $100 billion of tax cuts and incentives." so i'm not going to take up your time tonight. but let me just say this. we'll have a debate in four days and we can talk about th

president bush or mr. perot. >> if barbara bush were running this year, she'd be elected. but she -- it's too late. you don't want us to mention appointees, but when you see the quality of people in our administration, see how colin powell performed -- i say administration, he's in the --- [ unintelligible] >> you weren't impressed with the fact that he --- >> excuse me, i'm extremely impressed with that. >> yeah, but wouldn't that suggest to the american people, then, here's a quality person, if he decided he could automatically get the nomination of either party or --- [ unintelligible] >> huh? >> i'm totally impressed with that. i just want to know when's your guess when? >> you mean time? >> yeah. >> i don't know. starting after four years. no, i think you'll -- i think you'll see more --- >> mr. perot. >> i think you'll see more minority candidates and women candidates coming forward. >> thank you. >> this is supposed to be the women's -- the year of the women in the senate; let's see how they do. i hope a lot of them lose. >> mr. perot, i don't want to cut you off an

mrs. bush speaking out on a number of issues, including a very important one.took the chance to ask her about life after the white house. as well as the current political landscape, and she offered a bit of advice at my request to the families of the presidential candidates in the final sprint to election day. >> i do want to ask you since you have been through it six times now by my count, as we are in the last two weeks of this election, do you have any thoughts first lady michelle obama or in romney on how to get through the next 14 days he met. >> i know they will be able to get through without losing their hurdles? i know people will get through. he campaigned very hard, but also the adrenaline rush of those last few weeks and days. and also tonight. megyn: how are you doing? >> we are doing great. george and i are very happy to be home in texas, living what i call the afterlife now, what i call the promised land. we are building the vice presidential center. we will start to move in later this year and have the grand opening next april. this will include

president bush or mr. perot. >> if barbara bush were running this year, she'd be elected. but she -- it's too late. mentiont want us to appointees, but when you see the quality of people in our administration, see how colin powell performed -- i say administration, he's in the --- [ unintelligible] >> you weren't impressed with the fact that he --- >> excuse me, i'm extremely impressed with that. >> yeah, but wouldn't that suggest to the american people, then, here's a quality person, if he decided he could automatically get the nomination of either party or --- [ unintelligible] >> huh? >> i'm totally impressed with that. i just want to know when's your guess when? >> you mean time? >> yeah. >> i don't know. starting after four years. no, i think you'll -- i think you'll see more --- >> mr. perot. >> i think you'll see more minority candidates and women candidates coming forward. >> thank you. >> this is supposed to be the women's -- the year of the women in the senate; let's see how they do. i hope a lot of them lose. >> mr. perot, i don't want to cut you off any more, b

mr. obama has used more drones than george bush did. mr. obama has followed the same strategy that mr. bush did. how do we take that? >> i think it's as to things. number one is that there are far greater differences on many domestic issues than there are on foreign policy. and on both of those issues, even small differences matter. there is a saying that, when you are almost drowning and the water is over your mouth, that last half inch where it covers your nose is very important. so small differences matter. that is one thing. i think the other thing that is important is that, while their policy statements are not qualitatively different, i think there is a difference in rhetoric which becomes important when they are held accountable by their own party and hopefully some time some president will feel his or herself accountable to the voters who put them in office. what that means is, if your claim, as is president obama's based on his speech and higher in 2009, that he wants to rework the u.s. relationship with the arab world, with the muslim world, with the rest of the world, that he

mr. bush tried to cut their cost of living increase in 1985. medicare is not getting less expensive. medical care for the elderly is getting more expensive, with greater deductibles, with fewer benefits, the kinds of things we've had under this administration that have cut and chopped and reduced the kind of benefits that one gets under medicare. yes, we now have catastrophic health insurance, but it's going to cost, and that's going to be an additional burden on elderly citizens. it had bipartisan support. it should have had bipartisan support. but i suggest that we understand that those are going to be additional costs on senior citizens across this country. so i'm not going to begin, and i'm not going to go to entitlements as a means for cutting that deficit when we're spending billions on something like star wars, when we're spending billions on other weapon systems which apparently the vice president wants to keep in his back pocket or some place, but which, if we continue to spend billio

[applause] >> mr. bush picked dan quayle, and before he did it, he said, watch my choice for vice president, it will tell all and it sure did. it sure did. [applause] >> ann compton for the vice president. >> thank you, bernie. mr. vice president, yes, we read your lips -- no new taxes. but despite that same pledge from president reagan, after income tax rates were cut, in each of the last five years, some federal taxes have gone up, on social security, cigarettes, liquor, even long distance telephone calls. now that's money straight out of people's wallets. isn't the phrase, no new taxes, misleading the voters? >> no, because i'm pledged to that, and yes, some taxes have gone up. and the main point is, taxes have been cut, and yet income is up to the federal government by 25% in the last three years. and so what i want to do is keep this expansion going. i don't want to kill it off by a tax increase. more americans at work today than at any time in the history of the country, and a greater percentage of th

commission voted to find mickami guilty of misconduct on two of the six charges and that of course, mr. bush wrote is not what happened. the commission dropped four immediately on the grounds that they were unproven and debated how to handle the two remaining charges. they did not sustain the mayor's charges. you all know that. and only one of you had the ethical wherewithal to vote no as did commissioner hur. commissioner hur stated, "if we do not find a nexus to the relationship of the duties, then we are opening this provision up to abuse and manipulation down the road in a way that we, we the voters, commissioner hur are really not going to like. you stated mr. hur you do not think it's is your job to determine mr. mirkarimi's level of efficacy going forward. you implored your fellow commissions to make a narrow and principal view of that clause that will enable those using it going forward to apply it in a consistent way. your report as written is not what you said on august 16th it would be. you have completely changed this draft summary into something that you did not set out to do, b

mrs. laura bush, former first lady and it will air tomorrow at 1:00 p.m. i'll be on with her after that. ew, with advice for the current mrs. romney. oh, boy. and mrs. obama. take a look. >> get through without thoughts for me, for sure. i wish them both the best. i know what it's like. these are the last, i know people are tired. they're tired probably, because they have campaigned really. very hard. i know that the adrenaline rush of the last few weeks and few days. and election night. so, of course, i just wish them the best. >> dana: that will air tomorrow. mrs. bush doing rights for women and girls around the world. >> greg: you know those people? good people? banned phrase of the day is daylight. prim now using the word to describe the separation or creating a distance between objects like daylight between vailed and the united states. or -- israel and united states. or my dog casper and dana's dog jasper. it should be used to describe the horrible stuff that comes through the window in the morning and gives me an awful headache. >> eric: could it be used for the widening gap in the

the reliance that the appellant has placed on geogrouting is mind-boggling because nobody be, mr. bush or anybody associated wi said jieio grouting was the selected contractor. they were one of two bidders. their plans are not at issue. that's not what was approved by dbi. i think that's important to keep in mind. in terms of the risk with regard to the tunneling and grouting i want to turn it over to mr. collins who is the structural engineer and mr. carp can come up, and any of them can ask questions as well but i think that's the best way for you to get a grasp on what is proposed and the mitigation by the code, industry practices, and everybody doing this is of the highest caliber. >> good evening, commissioner. my name's randy collins, a structural engineer under contract with shane bush since about february. quite frankly, this is a complicated project. but we've been doing project like this in san francisco since the 1920's. so that's why structural engineers are here, that's why geotechnical engineers are here, that's why we're working with a contractor that's been around for 2

>> mr. bush has preferred to the embassy that was held in iran. i went to the white house in january in 1981 when all 52 of the hostages came home alive. at that time, president reagan gave a speech welcoming them home. we were so excited to see them back. but he said was, the united states has been embarrassed -- what he said was, the united states has been embarrassed for the last time. next time, there will be swift and immediate steps taken to address the wrong against our country. in april of 1983, i was in beirut and visited the ambassador at the embassy. two weeks later, the embassy was bombed. take a look at the crazy activities of terrorism -- terrorists. you never know what will happen. the following october, there was another bombing. that bombing took place at a marine barracks. right after that bombing occurred, there was a commissions the up. that commission did a study of the security arrangements around where the marines were sleeping. it found there was negligence, that they did not have proper gates up, proper precautions to stop

mr. bush let osama bin nodding get away from the tora bora mountains because it would not send soldiers into perfect arms -- harm's way so he lived for another decade. lou: they would not send american forces into harm's way? >> on the field and new orders came from washington. >>asol let's him get away the thing th it started. they were afraid of his lawyers. cia is not a combat operion. increasingly put them in that position. who got to afghanistan first? the agency and we have the coffee brewing by the time the military got there. i am sure sooeone to be there first. lou: i think we could all agree there is a considerable confusion in the united states government and using he role of the military with covert intelligence agencies and the u.s. aid the and confused intelligee agencies with the cia with the military. >> the confusion in this instance is the white house with the president pro all the reasons why we've heard of military force could not be sent, we need permission. how was that?

we know and i want to introduce mrs. bush to assaying we have here in michigan which is don't mess with the mitt. this is mitt romney's home state. this is where he was born and raised. this is where he fell in love with his wife. this is where his parent are buried. this is the state that's going to put him into the white house.

you have a conclusion where mr. bush acted one way in tampa and got murdered for it you have another situation where president obama acted one way after the benghazi murders and coverage was maybe 20% of what the bush coverage was. >> george bush coverage 9/11 got him 90% in the polls. >> bill: immediately after, how he reacted after. >> what is he going to do? talking to a bunch of little kids jump up and be scared and run out of the room and scare everybody? >> bill: you are saying what i'm saying. the network news covered it entirely different. you are super phiing. >> don't say i'm stoop find. bill what stupefies me is some of the things you say that's what stupefies me. >> bill: i know you are amazed at my wisdom but i gave you a rock solid comparison. so you bob beckel, co-host of the five, ladies and gentlemen, you don't believe that there is any tilt at all by the national television networks toward barack obama? >>, there is. >> bill: all right. >> now you are stupefied. i didn't ask to come on the show. >> bill

going to see a change in those polls. >> vice president bush, you have one minute to rebuttal. >> well, i was glad to get that vote of confidence from mrs. ferraro in my economic judgment. let me make a statement on the economy. the other day she was a -- in a plant, and she said, why are so many of you voting for the reagan-bush ticket? and there was a long deathly silence. and she said, come on, we delivered. that's the problem. i'm not blaming her except the liberal voting record in the house. they delivered. they delivered 21.5% interest rates. they delivered what they called "malaise." they delivered interest rates that were right off the charts. they delivered take home pay checks that were shrinking. and we delivered optimism. people are going back to work, six million of them, and 300,000 jobs a month being created. that's why there was that deathly silence out there in that plant. they delivered the wrong thing. ronald reagan is delivering leadership. >> congresswoman ferraro, one minute rebuttal. >> i think what i'm going to have to do is i'm going to start correcting the vice president's statistics. there are six million more
