and neil peterson. as the storm comes down on maryland we are prepared. we have had experience already this year and this looks like it will be a bigger event than the last one. right now as you probably know the latest forecast that we have seen indicates that maryland can get anywhere from 20 to 30-inches of snow and it appears from the track of this that it is bearing down right on the 95 corridor and that's where we anticipate that snowfall will be heaviest namely where most of the population lives. we are also on guard for a couple of effects on the eastern shore. because this is a noreaster, we are on good guard and highly sensitive to the coastal flooding. because of the noreaster and the wins they are far more likely to encounter blizzard conditions. lesser amounts of snowfall in western maryland and on the eastern shore. we have more specifics in a second. i issued an emergency deck ralation for the state of maryland. what does that allow us to do? activate the maryland national gashed and to support first responders especially with the humvees t

martha: but as david asman got out of neil barosky he's not the most popular guy in washington now.king line by line at the t.a.r.p. money and where it went and has been doing 75 investigations into possibilities of things, you know, like insider trading and fraud and all of that that may have gone with or tax dollar money and what do you think about that, congressman? >> first of all, he's very popular with our committee and he's well-liked on both sides of the aisle. because in fact, this is a problem any time you give a president and administration this much money and basically as a blank check a lot of what he's looking at happened on obama's predecessor, president bush's watch, and the problem is, that it is still happening with money that has come back from the banks today. so, you know, it is one thing to say that george w. bush robbed the bank, and another thing to say he robbed the bank and we're still robbing it. and that is what i think this administration is going to start not liking about neil barosky, is he is making the point again and again, outside of policy that th

with that let me turn it over to neil peterson, state highway administrator to talk about highways. >> thank you. first of all the snow has started to intensify. we are expecting the most intense snow to be coming down between 7:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. tonight. snowfall amounts of one to two inches and perhaps more per hour. visibility is going to be a serious problem. again, i want to reenforce the governor's message. if you do not absolutely have to get on the roadways please stay off the roadway for your own safety and also so that our crews can effectively get the snow off of the roadways themselves. we often find that drivers who are out there in these unsafe conditions end up running off the road or have other problems. they will end up interfering with the snow cars to be able to clear the roadways themselves. especially on our freeways and interstates. we operate a number of snow plows as groups of snow plows. we call them snow plow trains. it is very dangerous for drivers to try to pass the snow plow trains. it is dangerous to be passing a snow plow under any circumstances what

neil, welcome. let's start with the jobs bill. people on the floor today were saying it will create a quarter of a million jobs. is that the best estimate and are there questions about how lasting these job will be? >> the numbers are all over the place. it's truly a guessing game with these kinds of giant bills. what's interesting about this one is it designed to encourage businesses to hire and hire right away. it's a tax break, if they hire people who have beeninoid for two months or more, but if you think about it , if you're base, you do better-- you get more tax savings if you hire somebody now than if you wait a cowl of months. if it becomes law and the house still has to figure out what they're going to do with it, it is something that should add some significant number of jobs. the question is whether those last and i think no one knows the answer to that for sure. >> warner: in other words, employers could make temporary hires. >> they could , and there are all kinds of ways to game the system. one issue is thousands and

the one that i come up with is evil question neil says he's going to take his motorcycle across the grand canyon, then he has to stop because 1 4urbgs -- 100 yards ahead is snake river canyon. doing that is not easy. having said all of that, the fact is in the past when we faced really serious problems we've taken at least credible if not sweeping action and managed to keep ourselves from falling into a canyon as keep as the snake river canyon. whether it was grant rodman, an imperfect but still meaningful vehicle, the much aligned but seriously important 1990 budget agreement that continues to pain me that george hebe better walker bush dances away from what i would view as his greatest domestic achievement by far. the pay-as-you-go rules really had an impact and moved towards fiscal balance and surplus as anything else. we with could mention others. but we've managed at least at times to do this before. now you have to be at minimum uneasy. because we have to add in the disfunction that we do have right now. i would join the course saying i'm going on 41 years of immersing myself in the
