mr. president, i also just want to say i'm going to talk to the press in more detail at a subsequent time. but i want to congratulate rand paul, the junior senator from kentucky. about 15 years ago, mr. president, i offered an amendment here on the senate floor that said if someone has been convicted of a crime, a felony, and they have completed their sentence if they go to jail, if they've completed their probation time if they got probation, if they completed their parole time, this is all over with, they should be able to vote. and that's what rand paul said in his offering legislation saying if it's a nonviolent crime, they should be able to vote when they've completed their time. i went a little further than that with mine, but i so appreciate his suggestion, and i'll have more to say about that later. and i hope i don't get him in trouble with his republican caucus for congratulating him on this. this is something that is long overdue. as a country, we should allow people who have served their time, who have served their pen nance or whoever you want to state it, they should at least be able to vote. as i said, i'll say

that's why i want to bring in paul our legal analyst. cnn reached out to mrs. clinton for comment.pond. but in 2008 in a news day article, then clinton spokesperson howard wolfson defended the conduct saying as an attorney and an officer of the court, she an ethical and legal obligation to defend him to the fullest extent of the law to act otherwise would have constituted a breach of her professional responsibilities. she was a lawyer, a defense lawyer doing her job. >> well, absolutely. of course, you know, abraham lincoln defended criminals, john adams defended criminals. so it's always hard when a lawyer runs for office because you get cherry picked on certain cases. i think the real criticism here, i just came from a deposition with a bunch of hardened new york lawyers around the table. i said i'm going to be going to cnn. i played them the tape and they were all shocked when they heard she was laughing about a case in which she got a guy who raped a 12-year-old girl off or got a lighter sentence for it. then we played the tape and everybody was, what's going on here? she doesn

mr. president, it's stone deaf leadership. >> senator rand paul says the excessive rule is an illegal use of executive power and i will force a veet to repeal it and it looks like he will get some help from across the aisle from democrats in states where coal drives the economy. >> what we're seeing here is another example of an overreaching, overzealous, beyond the legal limit actions of this epa that has truly run amok. >> it's an issue in mitch mcconnell's battle in kentucky as well. >> it won make any difference because she would vote to make harry reid the majority leader of the senate and as long as he's the majority leader of the senate he will protect the president on this one. >> some on the left who pushed for these regulations today, they are disappointed because in the words, the rule comes too late in the obama presidency and didn't go far enough. >>> a new week and a new chapter begins in the v.a. scandal now that president obama's veterans chief has resigned. what that's chaged? not so much so far. >> three days after eric shinseki left the obama administration, the white h

paul thomas. >> thank you, mr. chairman. i was in port in galveston, texas on september 11, 2001, and then the three years following that as we scrambled to figure out what it meant to secure our ports. from my perspective, it's clear we've achieved a lot. i think one the first things we did, mr. caldwell mentioned the strategies. we recognized in order to build a secure port we had to build regi regimes, we had to do it locally, nationally and internationally. we had to build awareness so we could figure out what was going on and pick anomalies. we need the capability to respond to the anomalies. if you look at the three building blocks and compare them to where they were in september 11, 2001 to where we are today, it's clear there are progresses. there are clear metrics with each of those. with regard to the regimes, thank you to the congress for the maritime transportation security act and the safe port act. it was the impetus for the international regime, as well as regimes that have now been implemented as far down as

mr. goldwater in 1969, a reporter who follow the campaign of ronald paul -- of ron paul. this is one hour. and now it is my great pleasure to introduce our moderator, mr. brahm resnik.

mr. miller, first welcome. thank you for coming. >> thanks for having us, paul. >> i hear this canard from my friends on the right, particularly your organization. hillary hasn't done anything as secretary of state, not an important accomplishment. let me give you the top ten. the toughest sanctions in our generation on iran. cease-fire. she backed the mission -- we'll get to this. backed the mission to kill osama bin laden. i go on and on and on. i hope we cover all ten of these then maybe we'll do a special edition to cover ten more. let me start with number 3. which is the cease-fire in gaza. hamas terrorists were bombing israel. shooting rockets into israel. hillary clinton stepped in and negotiated a cease-fire. now, i think, of course, good for america, good for israel, good for peace. more importantly, here's what the prime minister of israel says about my friend, hillary. take a look. >> i just had the opportunity to work with her to achieve a cease-fire between israel and hamas. hillary clinton is a strong and determined leader. she's both principled and pragmat pragmatic. knows how to get the job done.

mr. conyers. >> thank you, chairman. let me ask paul williams this question. do you believe that the consent decree system severely limits members from achieving competitive market rates for their works? >> congressman, you absolutely go to the heart of the reason i'm here and to address something you just spoke about one of the things we're denied because of the consent decree the right to bundle rights. you go to all these different places for all these wonderful yous of our music. one of the things by changing the consent decree which hoped to give at some point is the right to bundle these rights. it's exhausting to go from one to another to another for these rights. we can handle this. there are two copyrights. there's a copy right for the original material, there's a copyright for the recorded material. i think that it's incredibly complicated what would be a great solution is to bring it back to us and let us control our future. let us control our copyright. the last thing we need is to throw more of this into the lab to it for us. >> so the decree hasn
