mr. stern's draft bill dies,ake t l t trryert dif they don't there'll be penalties. in any event, i want to commend that mr. afternoon mr. stearns for their draft bill and i lo rwarto rdctr day. >> i recognize for 10 minutes the ranking member from colorado. >> thank you, mr. chrman. and yield myself three minutes. >> mr. chairman, since i joined this committee hve learned a leatanctasht sults in gd rtisan oversight results in party sends legislation and then no no more solyndras act come th legislation today proves that lesson. a ro ems of taxpayerollai ho aecct ull and fair investigation so we can find out what happened and make sure it doesn't happen again. instead, the gop and solyndra oversight have made cheap political points in an election year instead of foowin evidcerelad rtel mr. chairman i have to respectfully disagree with characterization that this committee has conducted a thorough investigation. despite our requests there were no hearings to understand what u.s. policies are ncessa campin gl n gy market. there's been no testimony from the largest privat

that's expressively -- explicitly stated in the law and it was our intention when we drafted that, mr. stern and myself, when we came up with that language to require those two thresholds. so i wanted to say that's something we haven't really gone into in any great detail, and i would be happy to discuss it further, but it's not possible for the commission or the board to adopt several of the amendments before you in my view as they are in violation of these requirements and therefore would be illegal. that came up at the hearing before rules and rules did in fact discuss that at length. so i think the rules committee would like to have a city attorney's opinion. if you don't ask for it, they will at some point. in fact, i would imagine that they will amend the law, the next passthrough to require this. that is the simple remedy, the simple remedy is to basically say that there should be the issuance of findings concurrent with the adoption of any amendment and i think that the city attorney would concur in that opinion. so you would probably be well advised to set up a mechanism where or a

we have to be safe about what we say or mr. sternmmy: what about the olympics? do you have to try out for the olympic team? >> it's interesting. i don't know if i have to because they always need at least one token white guy. [ laughter ] so i think that i have a pretty good shot of making it there. [ applause ] i mean, it's like the white guy in the gang. he's the one you really got to watch out for. wait, why is he -- >> jimmy: well, we'd love to see it. that would be great. i think you could stir up trouble at the olympics this year. >> that would be fun to go over to london. >> jimmy: great to have you here. kevin love, everybody! we'll be right back with music from waka flocka flame!

mr. sterns and mr. upton have put out an attempt to address legitimate concerns about preventing future solyndras from happening. it's not a perfect bill, and the reason we're having a legislative hearing is because mr. upton and mr. sterns want to go through the regular order. we can, we can debate the political issues ad infinitum, but at some point we should focus on solutions to protect the american taxpayer in the future. my first question, we have the deputy assistant secretary for energy efficiency, dr. hogan, but my understanding is you're not here to talk about the solyndra bill, you're here to comment on mr. bass' bill s that correct? >> that is correct. >> have you been authorized at all to comment on the solyndra, or you're just here for mr. bass' bill? >> i believe we have mr. frantz here to discuss the loan guarantee program as that's his area of expertise. >> well, i note mr. frantz has been discussing it, but you're a career civil servant, is that not correct? mr. frantz? >> yes. yes, si

stern warning. >> before we carried out any military activity, i hope we acted mr. and said if you attack your own people, we'll come shoot him down. >> clearly, mr. romney's business experience means he knows how to throw out a cease about desist letter. what's the man talking about? >> of course not. the fact of the matter is that you do want to serve warning, but at the same time, you want to speak softly and carry a big stick. the fact is that the obama approach in libya has yielded results that could stop the northern brotherhood in africa and the middle east. if you have a leader like jabril is able to eliminate some of the fighting that goes on still around the country, this is the kind of foreign policy success all should be proud of. >> well, we're looking live now at pictures of tahrir square in cairo. egypt's court has declared president morsi's executive order to reinstate parliament has unconstitutional. what does that mean for the nations? >> it is really a test of wills between military and muslim brotherhood and eventually, both sides are going to wi
