mr. cleveland. >> thank you, supervisors ken cleveland i've followed this process in depth working with the chamber of commerce and i appreciate the fact i've pulled together two very difference piece of legislation into one, however, i them there are concerns majorly i'd like to bring up number one as you mentioned earlier as supervisor cohen mentioned earlier every neighborhood is unique that 20 percent rule for upper market should be extended the planning department needs to have the flexibility and supervisors and the community needs to have the flexibility to determine what is need in their own neighborhoods i also think that you know we need to look at flexibility the problem is you know those kinds of recreations we've had with the planning department came up with a great study you see how well, this current set of recreations is working why do we need to make them more restrictive going worldwide is a problem our big concern representing downtown property owners is the creek we see making those interim controls on mid-market is a stimuli i didn't to the development of that area do w

mrs. cleveland always sells. so let's say that she's quit wearing the bustle. and so they go ahead and get the story out that she has quit wearing the bustle. she comes back to washington in september, goes to one of the washington department stores with a friend of hers and goes up to the sales clerk and says, i'd like to see some bustles, please. well, the sales clerk looks at her and says, why, mrs. cleveland, ever since word got out that you quit wearing the bustle, nobody has asked for them. we've moved them to the basement. but if you want to see one, we will go down and get one for you to look at. well, frances looked at her friend and said, well, you know what? if they've said that i've stopped wearing the bustle, i guess i have. and so she went out the next day, took her clothes to her dress maker and had them altered. this is frank in the second administration. the clevelands are the only presidential couple to serve two nonconsecutive terms. frank married grover during the first time 1885 to 1889. they won the popular vote in the 1888 election. but c

mr. caufy moved out of cleveland. -- mr. coffey moved out of cleveland. then you say, oh, someone is making a whole lot of money out of the outsourcing of jobs. you know what, it's not the people in my community. it wasn't the workers. wasn't even the small business people. but it's the capitalists who take the money, those people who are rich enough to own these companies and they figure out they can outsource it so they can make more money, not work with the people in these communities who've given their life, their sweat for these places. it's just -- it's so disrespectful. it's unamerican. it's unamerican what they are -- it's un-american. it's un-american what they're doing. mr. tonko: again, if the gentlewoman from ohio would yield. you talk about the ownership, the pride of developing community and neighborhood. the investment that the worker made in growing family, developing households, building neighborhood in a strong and powerful and meaningful way, those are the mill town memories. those memories guide my heart and soul. i'm from a mill town.

in an endorsement interview with the cleveland plain dealer by your opponent mr.important to have a piece of legislation that literally imposed a gag rule on rape crisis counselors? >> okay. governor, there's your direct question. what's you got? >> would you like to answer that fwof? >> do you have a question? >> just to be clear, governor, that was you not answering. but ignoring the question. of someone sitting next to you. actually pretending the question did not happen. it's not a trivial question either. it's one i believe many ohio voters would like to hear your answer to. that legislation, mr. fitzgerald referenced is the budget bill you signed into law last june, a budget bill that included some of the country's most stringent and regressive restrictions on women's ability to exercise their pro productive rights and some of the worse of the restrictions are about information. like the new provision that says funding for services for pregnant women can only go to an entity that is not involved in or associated with abortion activities, including providing

mr. democrat himself, al smith, the great american, came before the american people and charged that the leadership of his party was taking the party of jefferson, jackson, and cleveland down the road under the banners of marx, lenin, and stalin. and he walked away from his party, and he never returned till the day he diedbecause to this day, the leadership of that party has been taking that party, that honorable party, down the road in the image of the labor socialist party of england. now it doesn't require expropriation or confiscation of private property or business to impose socialism on a people. what does it mean whether you hold the deed to theor the title to your business or property if the government holds the power of life and death over that business or property? and such machinery already exists. the government can find some charge to bring against any concern it chooses to prosecute. every businessman has his own tale of harassment. somewhere a perversion has taken place. our natural, unalienable rights are now considered to be a dispensation of government, and freedom has never been so fragile, so close to slipping from our grasp as it is at this moment

cleveland. we proudly refer to the city club as -- in 1923, the city club invited famous labor leader, socialist and perennial presidential candidate eugene deps to speak and he accepted. asking mr. depps to speak, caused -- ultimately mr. depps determined to decline the invitation and he wrote that he was feeling disinclined to intrude whether there's any question of my being welcome in a forum devoted to free speech, end quote. in may, former secretary of state condoleezza rice declined an invitation to give the commencement address at rutgers following student and faculty protests over the bush administration's war in iraq and the use of waterboarding to obtain to detainees. ms. rise referred to her 30 years as a professor and also to her service as provost and chief academic officer at stanford university, and stated that, quote, i am honored to have serve mid country, i have defended america's right to free speech. that also led -- smith college sand haberford college. in the haberford case the school chance leer issued a statement, quote, though we may not always agree with those in leadership, i believe that it's essential for us as members of an academic community to rea
