mr. kingived at school he couldn't be a real resident. going to college there doesn't count for a living there. and the real kicker is that the requirements for running for office are the same as the requirements for voting. so if college students in north carolina can be barred from running for office, can they also be barred from voting? the supreme court decided in 1979 students have the right to vote where they go to college. it's clear as day. if pasquotank county has this new precedent, would the precedent hold throughout north carolina? is it about voting rights in that county and north carolina, but other states, too? is this how republicans are going to play now? when we talked to king last month, he said he knew how much was riding on his case. he had already lost before the republican controlled local board of elections. now he was going to have to try again before the republican controlled state board of elections. against my skepticism, he insisted he was going to win. i can tell

if mr. king you're the one chronological to speak >> shawn on behalf of the project spokesperson. we view those as welcome good thought-out ideas. so far as the encroachment the promise sponsor will have the standards and protocols and we'll seek out the ideas and flipping the planters is something we'll look at. whether the planter is 2 and a half or 3 and to keep the view to protect the ground floor unit. i'm absolutely delighted to hear the continuation of last weeks meeting ultimate i resulted in going forward >> i'm happy with those suggestions. i just said to talk about the sidewalk with i'm not sure i trefrpt iowa what commissioner moore said but we have to have a wider sidewalk to anticipate future density and more communication hopefully with mission bay and many of our swauksdz in many parts of the city are not as generous. i i know that 16 the street is going to be a major corridor and allowing room for bus transit would restrict it a little bit more but on 17th street it wouldn't be a problem. >> the 15 feet for this project comes from the better streets plan, which re

riggs had said over and over he would psych out mrs. king, but mrs. hots. and when it was over, riggs had just enough energy to jump over the net. billie jean savored her victory at court side and her fans across the country did the same. >> well, the two men in my family left me alone with the match after we saw how it was going to go and watched bonnie and clyde. i loved every minute of it. >> he said women should stay pregnant or something, didn't he? they should be kept home and kept pregnant. i mean, you know, i'm glad a woman beat him. >> and i want to bring many selena roberts, and we have mike pesca, national desk correspondent and sports reporter for npr and susan ware, author of the book "game, set, match." thanks for coming here. i guess -- i'll start with you, selena, maybe just set the stage, take us back to 1973, take us back to what women's sports was like, what the atmosphere was like in 1973 and how this battle of the sexes that played thought week, how it fit into that. >> billie was the perfect face for a new shade of that revolution

mr. king, for 30 minutes. mr. king: i appreciate the presentation that's come forward from my colleagues from pennsylvania and nebraska with regard to the syrian situation and the international issue that's in front of all of us. not always. self but that's where i stand this evening on this syrian issue. and i think it would be of interest to the gentleman from pennsylvania that myself and a couple of other members yesterday morning, perhaps day before yesterday morning, my days blend together, we sat down with syrian christians who were ex-patriots who escaped from syria, very interested in the cause there and i understand the gentleman from pennsylvania has constituents that would be representative of the same cause. very interesting conversation we had day before yesterday and the concern that they expressed essentially came back to, it's hard to choose a good side in syria and that assad's -- he is an evil dictator and known that for a long time. free syrian army is a force for good and i

mr. kingresident? the presiding officer: the senator from maine. mr. king: madam president, i rise to join my colleague from rhode island and talk about climate change, but i want to start with history that has nothing to do with climate change. the history i want to talk about is europe and england, particularly, in the 1930's. in the 1930's, there was a looming threat from germany to the peace of europe and to the existence of england. that threat was real and there were multiple signs there was data, but there were very few people who wanted to do anything about it because it would have caused disruption, economic disruption and personal disruption. there was one politician in england who understood this threat, understood its dangers, understood that if gone unmet would engulf his country in a destructive and potentially catastrophic war. of course, that politician was winston churchill. he saw the danger based upon data, the size of the german air force, the building of munitions, the inv

you have 3 minutes of rebuttal, mr. king. >> the list of 61 supporters of their project, not one of the signers has a direct view of the front or the back of the remodel property. 54 of them live, 2, 3, 4 blocks away. these are hardly neighbors, missing from the list are any and all of the immediate neighbors to the right, to the left and across the street. the people actually affected by the remodel on file with this permitted appeal are letters of appeal of support from two immediate neighbors to the right, to the left, both unsolicited and also support from the three people across the street. in short, in my mind a hundred percent of the people, most affected by this project do not support this project and support this appeal. after 33 years of seeing this property neglected, we welcome the applicants commitment to restoring it. however we believe the property should be scaled down to address the legitimate concerns of the neighbors directly and permanently affected by it. we hope to be able to work with the applicants to

mr. king: mr. speaker, i ask unanimous consent to address the house for one minute, revise and extend my remarks. the speaker pro tempore: without objection, the gentleman is recognized for one minute. mr. king: thank you, mr. speaker. i come to the floor, as many of us do, to speak about the intrusion into god-given american freedom called obamacare. and as i watched the debate go back and forth and listened to my junior senator declare those of us that don't want to fund obamacare to be for anarchy, i would say instead, it's this. that if obamacare is ever implemented and enforced, we will never recover from it. it is an unconstitutional takings of god-given american liberty and what we're saying here in the house is we're not going to fund any implementation or enforcement of obamacare. if that means that the president would shut the government down this his throwing of a political tantrum, that's not on us, that's on him. we've always recovered from government shutdowns. there were 57 days of g

gohmert and mr. king and ms.visit to egypt was "like a "saturday night live" skit, unbelievable, ludicrous, almost comic if it wasn't so painful." >>> at times, when war's on the doorstep, when congress is asked to make decisions about war and peace, it's a rise to the occasion kind of moment. congress may be terrible on everything else, they may be unable to resist the most petty distractions on everything else, but on war and peace, we need there to be debate, we need the debate to be a good debate. we expect that congress will take that job seriously, even if they can't take anything else seriously. we expect that even the most vehement partisan opposition will be loyal opposition for the purpose of these hard, somber decisions about war and peace. we expect that. we ought to be able to expect that. but there's the michele bachmann flying circus in cairo saying the muslim brotherhood caused 9/11. there is new york congressman michael grimm going for the cash solution. congressman grimm a week ago said he suppo

mr. king: i thank you for that response. now that tells me, mr. speaker, that we have just gotten message to us that a c.r., continuing resolution, from the united states senate, that the vote had concluded over on the other side, down the other end, through the rotunda. and the senate has now acted to peel out the ban on funding for obamacare and send us back what they would call a clean c.r. with their changes and provisions which would include continuing resolution up until november 15. so it is a shorter term c.r. than we offered to them, but what it says is, we as senators are not going to, we are not going to -- we are not going to let you prohibit the funding of obamacare, and -- again we are back to the center and crux of this. another dramatic event is taking place here in the united states capitol. and the drama of this now is in the lap of the house of representatives where our speaker has just received the message of h.j.res. 59, the c.r. now we have a decision to make. and my message, mr. speaker, is this, if 218 house members hold ou

mr. randolph and dr. king came back and said -- dr. king said, "john, this doesn't sound like you." and mr. randolph said something like, "we come this far together, john. let's stay together." and i couldn't say no to a. philip randolph. i couldn't say no to martin luther king, jr. >> so you agreed to some changes. you took out the words criticizing the president's bill as being too little and too late. you took out the call to march through the heart of dixie the way sherman did. you took out the question asking which side is the federal government on. you took out the reference to some political leaders as "cheap," and you took them out, you're saying, because you were on the team, and because you honored a. philip randolph and martin luther king who said, "john, some of those words don't sound like you?" >> i did it. and as i look back and think about it 50 years later, i think it was the right thing to do. i have always tried to be a team player, and try not to violate any principles, or violate my philosophy. >> but were you angry at yourself at the time? >> i don't think i was

>> i remember talking to mr. king about a year and a half ago about exactly this point.ng a community there for the al shabaab type recruits could more easily recruit people because of the nature of the community, not sort of integrated. this was his analysis back then and this does seem to have played in al shabaab's favor. they have recruited more than 100 people from who were living in britain. more than 40 in the united states, it's believed. so what we are seeing from al s shabaab at the moment is they are taking a more radical turn. some of the recruits that have come in from outside, some of them have been killed for challenging the leadership. that's a warning for future recruits for sure but right now that organization, al shabaab, is having a more radical turn. >> al shabaab is recruiting here in the united states but they are taking the recruits overseas to carry out their terrorist attacks. i'm sure the concern in many american minds is that al shabaab will work with terrorists within the united states. how much of a danger is that? >> that is a danger. here

mr. king: thank you, madam speaker. i thank charityman for yielding me time. and -- chairman for yielding me time. and i rise in support of h.r. 3102. and i'd like to explain my position with this bit of a narrative, when i came into this congress a little over a decade ago i was watching the growth in the nutrition program, the food stamp program, and i'm well aware that it was established to try to put an end to malnutrition in america. now, it was growing too fast for me at that time, at that time there were 19 million americans that were on the food stamp program. by 2008 there were then 28.2 million americans on the program. the cost in 2003 was about $25 million. the cost in 2008 was $37.6 -- excuse me, billion, $25 billion in 2003, $37.6 billion in 2008. with 28.2 million people on food stamps. today our number is knocking on the door of $47 -- of 47 million people from 19 million to 47 million people, from $25 billion to $78.4 billion. and we're watching an administration that's been advancing the expansion and the signup of the nutrition program by sp
