. >> mr. moore. >> my name is dick morgan, i have been engaged in lake merced for 13 years. and i have spent thousands of volunteer hours on lake merced. when i first got engaged it was about 10 to 12 feet deep. it was rapidly going to a lake merced mud flat. there was denial and delay by commissioner and staff at that time. only when cal-pal brought to the commission in 2001, that the community finally had some clout to enforce a permanent solution. cal-trod still have that power. it's not up to this commission. they can go back to the state quality board with that permanent solution. i joined judge cahill's mediation on the lake merced issues. and a lot of progress was in that. the lake merced water task force in 2000, recommended almost everything that has been done. these were volunteers who knew what needed to be done to restore the water quality and lake level. other activi tiactivities and a collectively call ourselves cowboys. the golf course's daily water plant, and west side hydrological model, and the wells, and saltwater intrusion models. some gathering dust, lar

. >> thank you, mr. moor, thank you. each member of the public will be allotted the same number of minutes to speak, except that public speakers using translation assistance will be allowed to testify for twice the amount of the public testimony time limit. if simultaneous translation services are used, speakers will be governed by the public supreme supreme. >> if there's anyone else who would like to speak? >> my name is stefan white, i'm a tenant at 922 post street. i understand as the law now is landlords can ban smoking in common areas of the building like the lobby but they are not allowed it ban it in apartments. when you have smoking in some apartments it drifts unquestionably it drifts into the apartments of those who don't smoke. hallways are filled with tobacco and marijuana smoke, so is the building and elevator and sometimes even the lobby area, even though i have not seen people actually smoking in those areas. i really think unless you deal with the situation directly about smoking itself, this ordinance i

mr. moore is offend od that i want a christmas tree to be called a christmas tree. it as an attack on his value system. moore is one of the legions of media who have formed a secular clown posey. a bunch of people who have no blanking idea what this country was founded on. so i'm going to speak very slowly to you frazier, please take some notes and have that dictionary handy. christianity is a religion for those who believe jesus is is god. and for those who join a specific church to celebrate that belief. but christianity is a philosophy to people like thomas jefferson who did not believe that jesus was the deity. and mr. jefferson, as well as many of the founding fathers, incorporated the judeo-christian philosophy into the constitution. that's why the 10 commandments hang in the supreme court building. are you with me so far, frazier? images of the manger scene in the public square simply honor the baby jesus, the human being. the baby is not sitting at the right hand of god. he is laying there flanked by his parents. it's like the martin luther king jr. holiday,

mr. joeie moore. not often i do these. i actually can't think of the last time i've done one of these outside of our typical rotations. but when i heard what joey did a month ago, it absolutely warranted this small token of our appreciation. it's not often that you hear about acts of heroism and courage and when you do it should be distinguished with a moment like this, not only to recognize his great work but also to encourage some of our other citizens to every now and then take action on the behalf of their fellow citizens. so i think it was november 8, november 9, evening, up in monterey heights, there was a fire in a home, single family home up there. as i understand it, joey was out walking his dog, and no one else saw the fire, no one else took notice of it, including the people who lived in the home. and he took it upon himself to knock on the door, yell and scream, get folks out, and then on top of that call 911, and then on top of that get some of the neighbors in the nearby houses. and this was a fire that ended

. >> this started when mr. moorei saying its new constitution would be shielded from >> the situation started on the 22nd of november when morsi issued this decree virtually exempting all presidential decrees from judicial oversight. morsi has said this was necessary to speed up constitutional process. he may well have been right in saying that, but the draconian nature of the decree certainly wasn't perceived by his opponents has really set this up. so therefore the situation has escalated to the point where opposition elements are now viewing the judiciary as really kind of the last bastion of not the old regime, but the last bastion. >> seen as an attempt to implement islamic agenda? >> it may well be the start of that. the language if you look at the constitution is not explicit, though i think there are concerns about how that will be interpreted. i think some of the lapse has been loosened at bit. there are new instances that mf-the perception is that some of the protections in the language have been taken away

moore? >> i have a question for mr. lindsey, called process. this is the first time today that we are hearing that we are moving from a dr into a conditional use authorization. that by itself requires neighborhood notification is that correct? >> that is correct. >> has this neighborhood notification been issued to all the people with a sufficient amount of time? i would like to ask, please do not participate in my discussion with planning staff here. the reason why i'm asking is we had a holiday and we're moving back into holidays. for me it comes as a big surprise for a change in cu. i am very surprised. i kind of don't have a sense that the type of dialogue we normally encourage in the cu between an applicant and the neighborhood has been done to the extent that it answers those kinds of questions. for example, the issue about the solar panels. they are 11' above the additional floor we're adding. that is a significantly taller building because we all know that solar panels are very significant and they are not very good to look at. to be ve

mr. steven moore, writer for the with a wall street journal. i heard that quote and howard dean, dr.nd i thought about that a little bit. does he mean everyone's taxes have to go up, including people who don't pay taxes now? >> a great question, because as you know, eric, about 40% of americans who file tax returns now don't pay any income tax, but i also saw that clip live when he said it and kind of mouth open, i was kind of shocked, but he's at least being an honest liberal here. one of the things about this fiscal cliff debate that bothers me, even if we raise taxes on the top two or three% and the president may reveil. then you go into 2013 and i heard the discussion on the debt which was fantastic. even if we do the tax increases on the rich they're not going to raise that much money and not that many people that make over 400 $500,000 a year and that means if the liberals want a fund these new programs and they want to bring this trillion dollar debt down. you know where they have to go, eric, who are they going to have to tax. they're f are not going to be w on the very rich,

moore, sag guya and voting against. >> i heard there was cp to allow ground floor reds terrible mr. teeing is that something that you were putting before us here,. >> sure and it's something that i'm hypothecate putting before you as a package because of the affordable housing trust fund created a scenario where we could not increase affordable housing requirements lieu a new rezonings and legislation and through certain exemptions one being that the site was getting 20% bump in gross developable area the problem with ct and the regional commercial district is while they permanent housing on every floor, on the ground floor of large project, they restrict it and they don't permit it and so, to meet that 20% criteria in the charter, we would need to remove that planning prohibition of residential uses in the district on large sites on the ground floor and then in the other piece to that puzzle was also amendment aiming the zoning map resolution to remove the three language parcelels from the split designation because they would not be eligible for that because they didn't get the hig

mr. gensler, miss moore asked, do you support that legislative fix. obviously you said, well, perhaps they're going to do that in 2013. unfortunately or fortunately, however you want to look at it, we'll be in session for a little while. we have opportunity to fix it right now. would you support a 4235 fix which has passed the committee here unanimously? so again why put off to tomorrow we would try to deal with today. would you support those? >> i will support the interpretive guidance. and we addressed issues raised with regard that it doesn't have to indemnify, if there is information in that data repository they have asked to be there. you know. >> two dissenting commissioners, mr. gensler, stated that the commission is purposely chosen to interpret the statute in a man they're con strains other domestic regulators ability to examine the swap market data. if the doj needed to access date from an sdr for an investigation would it need to enter into indemnification agreement? could the doj do that? if not, why would the cftc limit access to relevant

mr. president, let's leonard peltier come home, for we shall all very our hearts at wounded knee. >> michael mooreaking on friday night. special thank you for that footage to filmmaker lorna tucker. >> on saturday after the leonard peltier concert at the beacon theater, at a chance to speak directly with leonard when he called in to a news conference that was organized by native elders, his lawyers, and pete seeger. i conducted the interview on the front row of the press conference by telephone as he spoke to me from the u.s. penitentiary at:, florida. he was sentenced to prison in 1977. he is now 68 years old. >> this is amy goodman from "democracy now!" >> how are you a question are >> i am good. i wondered if you have a message for president obama? >> concerning what?

mr. speaker, i rise to honor the legendary mayor of richmond, texas. mayor moore passed away last week after 63 years as richmond's mayor. he was a true texan, a straight shooter who loved his family, good conversation, quayle hunting, ranching -- quail hunting, ranching and texas longhorn football. the last time i talked with mayor moore was richmond's 175th anniversary. my speech was interrupted by trains roaring by. the trains did not dare to interrupt mayor moore. i asked him, how can i do that? he said, give it time. give it time. he gave richmond time. the time of his life. i yield back the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: for what purpose does the gentleman from california seek recognition? >> to ask unanimous consent address the house for one minute and to revise and extend my remarks. the speaker pro tempore: without objection, the gentleman from california is recognized. >> mr. speaker, i rise today to announce the discovery of a new break through in mathematics of the theory of vector bundles. part of the interest comes from its application

moore is the senior economics writer for the "wall street journal." necessary chicago. steven what do you make of congressman mcclintock and a lot of congressmen out there that mr. boehner has lost control of his own party? >> well, he certainly did, miquel, temporarily last week. almost everybody expected that plan b, as you described it, to past. and it had to be pulled at the last minute. that was an embarrassment for the speaker. he couldn't line up the votes in his own caucus that mean there is a lot of divisions even among the republicans about the best way to plead and i think, miguel, this means john boehner has to come up with plan c now. because as you just mentioned, we got about a week left and i still believe there's a chance, i would not put the odds too low, that maybe on december 30 or december 31, they get a deal done this is the way washington works, folks, like a teenager doing his homework, right? they always do it very very last minute. haven't given up hope is there a deal struck before the end of the year. >> 11 p.m. on new year's eve, they are gonna come up with something? >> could be. it could be. i want to make this point, too, if i may

moore. [video clip] >> it is time for republicans to work with us to find the middle ground. it is the only way to avert the devastating impact of the fiscal cliff. mr. president, the fiscal cliff needs to be avoided. in the meantime, the speaker should bring the middle class tax cut passed by the senate for a holiday. we know what past. all he needs to do is let democrats vote with some republicans. it will pass. the clock is ticking until the nation goes over the fiscal cliff and taxes go up for every american. it is time for the spigot to put on the brakes and avoid that cliff the west for the speaker to put on the brakes and avoid that cliff. the senate passed a bill will protect 19% -- small businesses from a crippling tax the 1-90% of small businesses from a crippling -- 90% of small businesses from a crippling tax increase. the only reason the speaker has not brought the bill to the senate is that he knows it will pass. host: your thoughts about what the majority leader had to say. guest: it is true that the speaker has passed a tax bill out of the house that would avoid the fiscal cliff. the senator's bill would protect 98% of americans from
