mr. kennedy. mr. kennedy, the administration maintains there has not been a successful security attack on healthcare.gov. is that an accurate at the same time? >> thank you, mr. chairman. basically, what we know for the monitoring capabilities within the healthcare.gov infrastructure is as of november 17th, they had not had the capabilities to even detext a national take -- detect a national attack. they also stated they detected 32 attacks overall, however, be if you have no monitoring capabilities period, how are you detecting the attacks that are happening? the statement's accurate because they don't know the takes that are to you are curing. in addition, the chief information security officer from hhs also said that i would say the healthcare.gov web site did not follow best practices. so as a testament to mr. krush's testimony, the 80053 practices did not meet -- >> okay. mr. gregg? >> i'm sorry, mr. cruz, you can get time from someone else. i'd like to ask a question of mr. gregg. do you agree wi

mrs. kennedy had joined her husband on a domestic political trip. in fact, since 1960 she had never been -- had not been west of middleburg, virginia, where the kennedys had a horse country estate. when it was announced that mrs. kennedy who was still recovering from the loss of an infant son who died at childbirth, when she would accompany jfk to texas, it was big news. she became even more so than her husband the focal point of all news coverage, and it was unprecedented coverage. a.c. nielsen estimated that the average american family watched 32 hours of coverage of the assassination and funeral, and this is the days when television channels went off the air at midnight. and their eyes were focused on the grieving first widow. a survey of college students conducted in the week withs after the assassination found that attention to mrs. kennedy's actions and deportment boarded on the -- bordered on on the obsessive. the most powerful and enduring images from those days this november 1963 were of mrs. kennedy's expression of ineffable tragedy first i

mr. kennedy, the last who testified is right. he doesn't have a horse in this case. he's an analyst, someone that understands cyber security. there are 20 serious vulnerabilities that have been pointed out in the obama care website last october that have yet to be fixed. you have 67 democrats who joined republicans in the house vote that dealt with security over obama care website, largest democrats on obama care vote. this is a very practical issue. even if you support the law, you have a responsibility to make sure anyone that enters that for health care. >> it would require notification to americans if their personal data has been compromised of the white house oep opposes this bill. why would the white house oppose the bill? >> a much larger problem with the issue. it's so politicized, so partisan, even on something that might be technical, so much distrust and animosity between two sides, each side goes to its battle stations and prups the worst about the other side. >> this is like the average american who is worried about their private identity being stolen. b

mr. kennedy suggests the far eastern agreement -- the fact is the soviet union pledged china's show retained full sovereignty in manchuria. not that many years later he writes the most eloquent and persuasive letter to the new york times about why bobby kennedy would be a good senator from the state of new york and why he deserves to run. so he was not inflexible in terms of making judgment about things but for me at least watching that my network and watching him on the american landscape and not just going with the whims but making strong judgment, this was an area he did know well and probably did know a lot more about bobby. >> he in fact that brings up a point which is that he did become, you got to know bobby very well when he was working the white house for president kennedy and he became very close to him. i used to visit my father when i was in law school and when he was living in new york and i was late getting cambridge and he would often take bobby and myself and others out to dinner. he and bobby would be sitting there talking about existential issues about the issue of, because

mr. kennedy will not relent. is that what cuomo is worried about? kennedy and the money and the advertisements against fracing? >> kennedy and the new york city radical environmental groups. new york city based. have found this to be a great fund-raiser for their organizations. five or six years ago, bobby kennedy was supporting natural gas, but when they realized that this was going to be a boom and that it was going to put their investments in solar and wind on the back burner, they changed their tune. so that's what this is all about. this is not about the science. it's not about the technology. it's pure politics. >> just funny thing, i did not know this. you're saying five years ago, robert f. kennedy jr. was in favor of natural gas? i did not know that. >> yes. if you look at, you know, you go back to the websites of some of these groups that he represents, they were supporting natural gas as the bridge fuel to solar. and wind. and when they realized we had this abundant supply, you know, their tune changed. >> so he pulled back because he will

mrs. kennedy but i do not want to talk about clothing because i do not think that is a very important issuen these days. i do think clothing makes a statement. one of the other first things that pat did was she appeared in a magazine, i think it was my calls or ladies home journal. summer. in the this was a very big deal. because she never wore pants. pants. not like she never appeared in public in slacks. and so that fact that she would appear in this magazine in a pantsuit is making a political statement. i think that by the time in 1972 you do have a pat nixon who was coming into her own. africa, she had gone to china, she had gone to the soviet union. here she is in pants. i think that is clothing as politics. >> i would like to ask you about social events in the white house and their significance. reference the white house wedding of patricia. lyrically evenke her standing -- his standing in the polls? an intersection point. right after that you have the pentagon papers controversy and the plumbers and things start to get out of hand. that moment in the summer of 1971 is a very sweet m

kennedy. after some pleasantries and this exchange, mrs. roosevelt says to president kennedy, why aren't there more women leaders in the united states? i mean we are a privileged country. we are educated women. why aren't there more leaders? and it occurred to me when i was going back through just trying to figure out how we are going to talk about where we are todao be willing to do is to ask like eleanor roosevelroosevel t did, the difficult questions. the questions that you know may be a little bit embarrassing for some people to try to answer, but really are there to sort of engage and move us in a direction that are haps the president wasn't even thinking about going when he entered the room and entered into that conversation. so today i want to talk a little bit about what those difficult questions are that are going to move us from where we are today. i want to talk a little bit about women's leadership. i want to talk about some of the things that i care very much about which happen to be research but also research specifically in he
