some might be tempted to suggest that such terms apply better to mr. walsh>> well, you know, here is the thing. joe walsh has gone to washington to be a mega phone for the tea party. i'm not running with a megaphone. when you ever two megaphone's blaring at each other, nothing ever gets established. i'm going to work with whoever loves this country as much as i do and get her moving again. yelling is not a way to serve the people of the district. >> are you saying that the impact of the tea party has declined and decreased compared to what it was in november 2010? i think in my district there's a lot of buyer's remorse they are seeing that nothing has gotten done. roll up our sleeves and work with one another and absolute continuing e ining obstruction continue. >> your father was a veteran who lost his job. i believe the family was forced to go on food stamps. what goes through your mind when you hear someone like newt gingrich talking about the president as the food stamp president? well, i think newt gingrich is an exact good example of what's wrong with

the one comment i will say to what mr. walsh was talking about, section four, that is something we put in. it is not something i am wedded to if there is strong feeling among community members. i'm happy to take thatit is somh in different departments. we want to make sure that it captured and work through different apartments and whether it captured all things. -- that this was behind. this is not meant to be a cog in the will but to bring neighborhoods and neighborhood members into the planning process and to get their voice to be heard. even if you end up disagree with neighbors or members, to give them a voice early on it means a lot. it is something we should try to include here. if there is comments on that, that is fine. otherwise i would ask you have a motion here to accept these amendments. >supervisor kim: there is a measure to accept this. we can do this without opposition. supervisor campos: i appreciate supervisor farrell's thoughts. i wonder if there's a specific change to that language that anyone has in mind that

we now go to the gentleman from vermont, mr. walsh, for five minutes. >> thank you very much, mr. chairman. two things, number one, i want to express appreciation for the hard work of the people of the atf. this is an incredible challenge that they have. we lost a revered officer, officer terry, in this -- in this service of his country. and it's because there is a huge problem with guns going from the southwest into mexico. in the past five years, 94,000 guns recovered in mexico, over 64,000 are traced to the u.s. every year thousands are -- are transported across the border. you have very few tools at justice to try to deal with that. you've spoken about that, so i won't ask you. but i think it's important for us to ask the question whether the point of this hearing is to try to do something that's going to help the men and women of law enforcement deal with a major problem or it's going to be something that is going to run into one dead end after another without any good outcome. second, we get in our own way a little bit here with the investigation, because it goes off into ma

. >> with are respect to the budget, i know mr. walsh talked about the fact that despite the overall budget decreased, we are looking at the fee that passengers pay. it seems like -- i applaud you for cutting spending but i'm a little concerned about raising taxes, especially when we're not really seeing a need there. we've got the tsa actually working better than it has in the past and we've got a lot of our technology expenditures under control. why the need for increasing that fee? >> well, thank you and thank you for your kind words about the tsa. they have made a lot of progress in the last few years. that fee is a fee, not a tax. there are important differences there. it's not been increased since 2002. in the meantime, the congress has been appropriating money, dollars after dollars so we can make sure that we have good technology, that we have the right number of personnel that are properly trained and so forth. since 2002 in the aviation environment, just the pure fact of charging for a checked baggage has forced more and more p

thousand nine hundred one so i've seen her propaganda tactic tactics up close and personal well mr walsh first off i could care less that you spent time behind the iron curtain because unlike you i don't view everything through an outdated cold war lents see in my mind your time as soviet union has absolutely nothing to do with you calling a peace peace on the n.y.p.d. surveillance program journalistic to hot and second i've seen her propaganda tactics up close and personal don't really my tactics up close and personal with that back in one thousand nine hundred six so we're both in the soviet union because my parents must have forgotten to tell me all about my days of propaganda when i was still in the womb all right so i'm assuming that was actually dense enough to think that i was pushing propaganda as an infant so take that to mean that he somehow connecting me to every piece of propaganda there was out there to put during the soviet union which makes perfect sense right but it's not. spend too much time on that when there is better material to dig into he continues on saying there i

. >> mr. walsh transfixed by what they call a marketing strategy epitomized by mcdonald's here where the top and the bottom of the price range giving people a lot of choice. in contrast, you're actually cutting back your value brands. why is that? because you're becoming more of a luxury goods player and a direct response of having a cost space unless you're at the premium level is too high? >> i think broadly that's correct. we focus very much on premium and above. and it's interesting when you look at our performance in the first half, if you look at our ultra premium marks like johnny walker blue label, the rum, they grew 25% in this period. so the action is very much a premium and above and that's what we care to do. >> you've had some selective price increases of about 1%, mr. walsh, i'm curious as to whether or not you reached the point where you've increased prices to the full extent without consumer pushback or you see more price increases in 2012? >> i see modest price increases in 2012. bu

again i indicated we had been working with mr. walsh and working with many members about the concerns on this issue. and we thought it was very important for us to act with dispatch on this very straightforward issue. the issue is are members of congress going to be willing to be transparent in their actions as far as trading stock is concerned? because we are privy to the nonpublic information at times in the same way that members and individuals and expected french. so we went and moved with dispatch and i think accomplished the goal given the fact there wasn't a lot of objection on the other side of the aisle the way this bill came forward. >> [inaudible] are you open to that possibility? >> i think it needs to pass the straight face test, and the fact is we are going to spend less in our efforts in afghanistan and iraq. to use those funds to those savings to propel more spending doesn't seem to make a great deal of sense to me. .. i don't guide everything that goes on every community every day or for that matter what happens on the

mr. issa and even joe walsh was on that committee, what do you make of these men finding time to focus on issue of contraception when we still have 40 million people unemployed and the issue of the economic recovery still very much staring us all in the face? >> we're facing a transportation bill that will kill jobs, continue to make our infrastructure go to pieces and make our bridges fall. they still have time to bring these emotional topics and try to spread rumors rather than facts in order to keep the public aroused. this time the public is aware of what's going on. we can tell by the polls. i can tell by my mail. i'm so pleased that the people get it. >> absolutely. congresswoman eddie bernice johnson. thank you for joining us. >> thank you very much. >>> next, the president hits the road while mitt romney salutes be muscle car. stay with us. >> i'm just -- this really does bring back memories. any old girlfriends here? oh, have to be careful. ann's not here today. don't tell. ♪ let's go to the hop my heart attack happened completely out of the blue... i was so young... you just don

here with chuck walsh who has been cooking up a storm to show us what we might have eaten in the 18th century. pepper pot soup and oysters. >> we spoke to chef dave and he was saying mrswashington was very good with planning. how often did they entertain and throw lavish din ners like this? yes. they had a lot of din ners. washington once referred to mt. vernon as a well appointed tavern. at one point he said if no one popped in unexpectedly, he and mrs. washington would do something they had not done for 20 years, which is to set down alone to dinner together. which gives you a real insight into life here. >>> we also have a heart shaped waffle iron which is special for this season. >>> i understand too that some of the utensils you have were actually used during washington's time there. >> we we have a good number of original artifacts from the washington kitchen that were preserved by the family. pots and pans. what was long thought to be a muffin pan and lots of other really great things from the mt. vernon kitchen. >> chef dave and susan shower, the curator, who are anxious to welcome people to mt. vernon today. >> and it is fry. -- free. >>> now let's reveal the

mr. kilmeade, what's happening? >> steve -- one of the best that we've ever had. misty may treanor, now that she married matt treanor with the dodgers will go for gold in 2012 like you and kerry walships today. and that's going to just push us a step further over. >> and my thing is i'm emphasizing more time off. less volleyball. more distractions. >> it's perfect. >> ok. now, you have this for 2012. how do you raise awareness about what's going on with beach volleyball while gaining momentum for london? >> i mean, by doing this, by coming out and being -- media has a big part to do with it. right now, we don't have a domestic tour so it's doing clinics, really reaching the youth because that's the next generation that's going to step in. but kerry and i love what we do. we love our jobs and we love being in front of people. >> like gisele bundchen has become an envy of the giants, you have to take on brazil, the nation because they are probably the second best after america, right at beach volleyball? >> yes. >> i know you're used to the sand and i have the athletic advantage over you but try to do your best. let's just see what you got. up! i thought that was coming down hard. >>
