-- i think it would be in the interest of our communities to have him appointed. >> thank you, mr. lewis. >> i have had a substantial amount of interaction with his capacity in the office of land use and economic development, and i can tell you he is extremely knowledgeable regarding land use matters. he is also extremely knowledgeable regarding economic matters common two primary concerns of of planning commissioner. when i was talking to folks in the apartment, i was represented a client who had an interest. he has to deal with the views of folks who represented different interests. i always found it exceptional getting him to ask questions and listen, and i always appreciate some heavier -- somebody who ask questions and listens, and it gets everybody in the room talking and listening to each other, and my experience is he is able to get everybody's concerns on the table and to give various interested to appreciate the interests of others, and there has always been a very positive resolution in manners in which he has been engaged, so i would certainly recommend him to the planning co

legend. >> thank you very much. >> mr. lewis, if you were just tell me what went through your mind when you first heard about mitt romney's comments yesterday. you were a seasoned olympic veteran. what did you think about what he said? >> well, i guess i look at it differently. i was frustrated, and my comments came out of frustration. as you know, i have been in four olympic games. two of them in my own country. i actually witnessed the volunteers and the hard work and the dedication of all these people. and i have been to so many games and it's always a lot of work to get them finished. but they're always ready. and you know, i was here in london for the 500-day launch, i was over here -- i was at the olympic committee event 100 days out. i followed the process all the way stlou, and i knew how hard these people were working. it was a little frustrating to me because governor romney actually ran the olympics so he knows how hard working those difficult situations can be and he should have know better. >> what do you think moti

i wish mr. lewis and mr. dicks happy retirements and other pursuits in life and we wish you god speed. i yield back. the chair: the gentleman yields back the balance of his time. for what purpose does the gentleman from washington rise? mr. dicks: mr. chair, just for a brief moment. the chair: the gentleman is recognized. mr. dicks: thank you. i strike the requisite number of words. one issue that didn't come up today was this question of what are we going to do at the end of this year with sequestration? and there was some discussion of an amendment, it didn't happen, for points of order and other possible reasons. but i really believe that somehow we have got to avoid sequestration and that collectively we've got to work together in the next several months because i honestly believe that the economy of this country will be severely and adversely affected if we allow sequestration, both -- not just for defense which we're talking about here today, but for the other part of the government, the discretionary d

wilson and his son came to my office in washington and said, "mr. lewism one of the people that beat you. we forgive me? i apologize." his son had been encouraging his father to do this. the sun started crying. mr. wilson started crying. he hugged me. his son of me. i have them both back. all three of us stood there crying. that is what the movement is about, to be reconciled. >> when we hear about the voting rights, we do not hear about the struggles that you and so many others that you lead with 350 years ago. >> that is why it is so important for people to understand, to know that people suffered and struggled. some people bled and some died. it was for the right to participate. the vote is the most powerful non-violent tool we have in a democratic society. it is precious. it is almost sacred. we have to use it or we will lose it. >> of years after that, two years after you had your head slammed in and so many others were beaten in montgomery, with the 1963 march on washington, dr. king spoke and you also spoke. i want to go to a clip of that moment. a

eventually, mr. lewis was physically escorted out of the way of the tanks by one of the men who was riding on top of the koch tank. but not before he made his point. and not before the denver post caught wind ofhe whole thing and christened the local hairdresser tiananmen sid for his act of free speech defiance. the whole democracy being bought and sold there may be a reference to bill koch and his influence as the guy putting the column of tanks in the local parade as the owner of multiple energy companies and huge swaths of not just paonia but two neighboring counties in colorado as well, may also by a reference to what koch's brothers are doing in national politics. they have reportedly said they will spend $400 million trying to defeat president obama and congressional democrats this year. $400 million, two guys. that's more than the entire john mccain campaign spent in 2008. it's not just them. in addition to them, karl rove has already announced his groups which appear to be mostly funded by rich con

eventually mr. lewis was escorted out of the way of the tanks by one of the men riding on top of the koch tank. but not before he made his point. not before the denver post caught wind of the wheel thing and christened the whole thing, tee anna men sid. his outsed local influence as the guy putting the column of tanks in the local parade as the owner of multiple energy companies and not just two neighboring counties as well, it may have been a reference to what bill koch's brothers are doing in national politics. in total, they have said they will spend $400 million trying to defeat president obama this year. $400 million, more than the entire mccain campaign spent. karl rove has already announced his groups which appear to be mostly funded by very rich conservative individuals, plan to spend anywhere in the neighborhood of $300 million, this doesn't count the romney campaign itself or the republican party. and that's all on top of the koch brothers money. how are the democrats attempting to match that ki

mr. lewis joins me live from london tonight. >> it's another conservative lie that just won't die.elieve the new numbers about president obama and islam. and you won't believe how the romney campaign reedited his naacp speech to make it look like he was a big hit. all that, plus director peter bogdanovic on gun violence in movies. ellen burstyn on obama versus romney, and jay roach on art imitating life in his new movie. >> after cam brady's punching incident, he's jumped 11 points in the polls. >> mitt romney's splash across the pond may be engolfed by the games in the pond, but by the scathing estimation of the brits and the head shaking wonder of romney's usual allies here in america, the candidate himself continued his mile-long walk back and in fact, mitt romney hasn't talked this much about the olympics since 1988 when he took a break from outsourcing american jobs to

mr. lewis: mr. speaker, we have been down this road before. we've been here 31 times before. voting to repeal the affordable care act, we're wasting time. the american people are suffering. they've lost their jobs, their home and more than 50 million uninsured are worried about whether their one -- they're one illness away from disaster. the affordable care act was a historic and necessary step to cover all americans. and all the republicans can say is repeal. these are the same people that fought against medicare and social security. people get it. if not for medicare, where would our seniors be? where would they turn? health care is a right and it is not a privilege. not just for some people, but for all people. we cannot and we will not go back. do you want to go back? do you want people to be afraid to have a checkup? do you want the only doctor people see to be in an emergency room? the affordable care act is moving us away from this tragic and toward insurance coverage for all americans. we have come too far, suffered too long to go back. too much progress has been made

dicks and mr. lewis have had a long tradition of leadership on cancer research in the defense appropriations committee. we've always been very supportive and will continue to. so the bill's already at $246 million. now secondly, why did we put the money into the cruiser program? and we did so because at a time when we are pivoting much of our navy fleet into the pacific area, we believe we needed to have as many of the ships capable of missile defense, or the agent system, as possible because the world is so unstable. so many of these ships will probably go to the pacific. there's six of them that we are reoutfitting for the system. and then some of them may go to the middle east. i just got back from spending the night on a carrier with part of the 5th fleet in the persian gulf and our trip also included afghanistan, pakistan and yemen and i wish that members of congress could get some of the briefings that we got in terms of the missile threat in the middle east alone. because it is an unstable part of

mr. lewisand the attending the using the relationships in the community with black politicians, black entertainers. he did the advertising campaign for shaft, many of the early advertising campaigns for black mayors in urban cities and congressional races. but they both proved the point that it is all who you know. and so, ultimately that's why we have to in theory build an integrated society in order to have total access to all the avenues of power and opportunity because most of the doors of opportunity in this country are as a white person standing in it in many ways and so the part of freedom that i look at is where do white people and black people have constructive relationships together for all of us to have freedom and not just the extent to which white racism is an obstacle that has to be removed, but what kind of constructive society do we have to build so that we all have access to the opportunity? because speaking personally, white people are free in this country in the sense that we

mr. white had the opportunity to meet grover lewis. ved as one of the first african american commanding officers in north carolina. despite his failing health, mr. white rose to his feet and stood at attention. colonel lewis recalled that as he sat down mr. white said, i never thought i would see this in my life. it was later at his funeral in 2011 that colonel lewis remarked on this encounter saying, that was the moment when he realized as a commander he represented 19,000 african american marines who never had the opportunity to serve under a commanding officer who shared their skin color. [applause] you and all of the montford point marines forged a new path in our armed services, all the while you never lost your love for our country, love for your family, or for the pride in the marine corps. to these american heroes, to your families we owe an incredible deal of gratitude. the congressional gold medal is a small token of appreciation that you deserve. to those montford point marines here today and those who have gone before, thank
